1. | Organization, Formation and Structure

Saul Centers, Inc. (“Saul Centers”) was incorporated under the Maryland General Corporation Law on June 10, 1993, and operates as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company is required to annually distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (excluding net capital gains) to its stockholders and meet certain organizational and other requirements. Saul Centers has made and intends to continue to make regular quarterly distributions to its stockholders. Saul Centers, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries and the limited partnerships of which Saul Centers or one of its subsidiaries is the sole general partner, are referred to collectively as the “Company.” B. Francis Saul II serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Saul Centers.
Saul Centers was formed to continue and expand the shopping center business previously owned and conducted by the B. F. Saul Real Estate Investment Trust, the B. F. Saul Company and certain other affiliated entities, each of which is controlled by B. Francis Saul II and his family members (collectively, the “Saul Organization”). On August 26, 1993, members of the Saul Organization transferred to Saul Holdings Limited Partnership, a newly formed Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), and two newly formed subsidiary limited partnerships (the “Subsidiary Partnerships,” and, collectively with the Operating Partnership, the “Partnerships”), shopping center and mixed-use properties and the management functions related to the transferred properties. Since its formation, the Company has developed and purchased additional properties.
The following table lists the properties acquired, in development and disposed since December 31, 2012.

Name of Property | Location |  | Type |  | Year of Acquisition/ Development/Disposition
Acquisitions |  |  |  |  |
1580 Rockville Pike | Rockville, MD |  | Shopping Center |  | 2014
1582 Rockville Pike | Rockville, MD |  | Shopping Center |  | 2014
Developments |  |  |  |  |
Park Van Ness | Washington, DC |  | Mixed-Use |  | 2013
Dispositions |  |  |  |  |
Giant | Baltimore, MD |  | Shopping Center |  | 2014

As of June 30, 2014, the Company’s properties (the “Current Portfolio Properties”) consisted of 49 operating shopping center properties (the “Shopping Centers”), six mixed-use properties which are comprised of office, retail and multi-family residential uses (the “Mixed-Use Properties”) and three (non-operating) development properties.

2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations
The Company, which conducts all of its activities through its subsidiaries, the Operating Partnership and Subsidiary Partnerships, engages in the ownership, operation, management, leasing, acquisition, renovation, expansion, development and financing of community and neighborhood shopping centers and mixed-use properties, primarily in the Washington, DC/Baltimore metropolitan area.
Because the properties are located primarily in the Washington, DC/Baltimore metropolitan area, the Company is subject to a concentration of credit risk related to these properties. A majority of the Shopping Centers are anchored by one or more major tenants. As of June 30, 2014, 31 of the Shopping Centers were anchored by a grocery store and offer primarily day-to-day necessities and services. Two tenants individually accounted for 2.5% or more of the Company’s total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Excluding the results of the Giant Center, which was recently sold and at which Giant Food is a tenant, Giant Food, a tenant at nine Shopping Centers, and Safeway, a tenant at eight Shopping Centers, individually accounted for 4.6% and 2.5%, respectively, of the Company's total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Saul Centers and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership and Subsidiary Partnerships, which are majority owned by Saul Centers. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations of Saul Centers, Inc. for the interim periods have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Saul Centers, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2013, which are included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts Receivable, Accrued Income and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable primarily represent amounts currently due from tenants in accordance with the terms of the respective leases. Receivables are reviewed monthly and reserves are established with a charge to current period operations when, in the opinion of management, collection of the receivable is doubtful. Accounts receivable in the accompanying financial statements are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $0.4 million and $0.6 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
In addition to rents due currently, accounts receivable includes approximately $37.5 million and $37.2 million, at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, net of allowance for doubtful accounts totaling $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, representing minimum rental income accrued on a straight-line basis to be paid by tenants over the remaining term of their respective leases.
Assets Held for Sale
The Company considers properties to be assets held for sale when all of the following criteria are met:

• | management commits to a plan to sell a property;

• | it is unlikely that the disposal plan will be significantly modified or discontinued;

• | the property is available for immediate sale in its present condition;

• | actions required to complete the sale of the property have been initiated;

• | sale of the property is probable and the Company expects the completed sale will occur within one year; and

• | the property is actively being marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable given its current market value.

The Company must make a determination as to the point in time that it is probable that a sale will be consummated, which generally occurs when an executed sales contract has no contingencies and the prospective buyer has significant funds at risk to ensure performance. Upon designation as an asset held for sale, the Company records the carrying value of each property at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated fair value, less estimated costs to sell, and ceases depreciation. As of June 30, 2014, no properties were classified as held for sale.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term investments. Short-term investments include money market accounts and other investments which generally mature within three months, measured from the acquisition date, and/or are readily convertible to cash.
Construction In Progress
Construction in progress includes land, preconstruction and development costs of active projects. Preconstruction costs include legal, zoning and permitting costs and other project carrying costs incurred prior to the commencement of construction. Development costs include direct construction costs and indirect costs incurred subsequent to the start of construction such as

architectural, engineering, construction management and carrying costs consisting of interest, real estate taxes and insurance. Construction in progress as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, is composed of the following:

(in thousands) |  | June 30, 2014 |  | December 31, 2013
Park Van Ness |  | $ | 13,845 |  |  | $ | 7,901 |
Other |  | 2,414 |  |  | 1,966 |
Total |  | $ | 16,259 |  |  | $ | 9,867 |

Deferred Debt Costs
Deferred debt costs consist of fees and costs incurred to obtain long-term financing, construction financing and the revolving line of credit. These fees and costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective loans or agreements, which approximates the effective interest method. Deferred debt costs totaled $10.6 million and $9.7 million, net of accumulated amortization of $5.2 million and $4.5 million, at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
Deferred Income
Deferred income consists of payments received from tenants prior to the time they are earned and recognized by the Company as revenue, including tenant prepayment of rent for future periods, real estate taxes when the taxing jurisdiction has a fiscal year differing from the calendar year, reimbursements specified in the lease agreement and tenant construction work provided by the Company. In addition, deferred income includes the fair value of certain below market leases.
Deferred Leasing Costs
Deferred leasing costs consist of commissions paid to third-party leasing agents, internal direct costs such as employee compensation and payroll-related fringe benefits directly related to time spent performing leasing-related activities for successful commercial leases and amounts attributed to in-place leases associated with acquired properties. Leasing related activities include evaluating the prospective tenant’s financial condition, evaluating and recording guarantees, collateral and other security arrangements, negotiating lease terms, preparing lease documents and closing the transaction. Unamortized deferred costs are charged to expense if the applicable lease is terminated prior to expiration of the initial lease term. Deferred leasing costs are amortized over the term of the lease or remaining term of acquired leases. Collectively, deferred leasing costs totaled $26.7 million and $26.1 million, net of accumulated amortization of $19.1 million and $16.6 million, as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Amortization expense, included in depreciation and amortization of deferred leasing costs in the consolidated statements of operations, totaled $2.6 million and $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company may, when appropriate, employ derivative instruments, such as interest-rate swaps, to mitigate the risk of interest rate fluctuations. The Company does not enter into derivative or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Derivative financial instruments are carried at fair value as either assets or liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. For those derivative instruments that qualify and are designated as hedging instruments, the Company designates the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge. For those derivative instruments that qualify and are designated as hedging instruments, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedge instruments is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and recognized in earnings within the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion of the change in fair value of a derivative instrument is immediately recognized in earnings. For derivative instruments that do not qualify, or that qualify and are not designated, as hedging instruments, changes in fair value are immediately recognized in earnings.
Derivative financial instruments expose us to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties under the terms of the derivative instrument. The Company minimizes its credit risk on these transactions by dealing with major, creditworthy financial institutions as determined by management, and therefore, it believes that the likelihood of realizing losses from counterparty non-performance is remote.

Income Taxes
The Company made an election to be treated, and intends to continue operating so as to qualify, as a REIT under the Code, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1993. A REIT generally will not be subject to federal income taxation, provided that distributions to its stockholders equal or exceed its REIT taxable income and it complies with certain other requirements. Therefore, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Legal Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, which are generally covered by insurance. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position or results of operations. Upon determination that a loss is probable to occur and can be reasonably estimated, the estimated amount of the loss is recorded in the financial statements. Both the amount of the loss and the point at which its occurrence is considered probable can be difficult to determine.
Postemployment Benefits
From time to time, the Company may enter into an arrangement with an employee at the time of the employee’s separation from service whereby the employee will receive certain payments in exchange for certain releases, covenants not to compete, or other promises. If no future services are required in order for the employee to receive the payments, the Company estimates the amount of payments to be made over the life of the arrangement and records that amount as an expense as of the date of the arrangement with a corresponding liability representing the amount to be paid in the future. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded as compensation expense $1.1 million of severance payments to be made in the future pursuant to a separation agreement entered into during March 2014.
Predevelopment Expenses
Predevelopment expenses represent certain costs incurred by the Company in connection with active development and redevelopment projects and include, for example, costs related to the early termination of tenant leases and demolition of existing structures.
Real Estate Investment Properties
The Company purchases real estate investment properties from time to time and records assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including land, buildings, and intangibles related to in-place leases and customer relationships, based on their fair values. The fair value of buildings generally is determined as if the buildings were vacant upon acquisition and subsequently leased at market rental rates and considers the present value of all cash flows expected to be generated by the property including an initial lease up period. From time to time the Company may purchase a property for future development purposes. The Company determines the fair value of above and below market intangibles associated with in-place leases by assessing the net effective rent and remaining term of the lease relative to market terms for similar leases at acquisition taking into consideration the remaining contractual lease period, renewal periods, and the likelihood of the tenant exercising its renewal options. The fair value of below market lease intangibles is recorded as deferred income and accreted as additional revenue over the remaining contractual lease period and any renewal option periods included in the valuation analysis. The fair value of above market lease intangibles is recorded as a deferred asset and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the remaining contractual lease term. The Company determines the fair value of at-market in-place leases considering the cost of acquiring similar leases, the foregone rents associated with the lease-up period and carrying costs associated with the lease-up period. Intangible assets associated with at-market in-place leases are amortized as additional expense over the remaining contractual lease term. To the extent customer relationship intangibles are present in an acquisition, the fair values of the intangibles are amortized over the lives of the customer relationships. The Company has never recorded a customer relationship intangible asset. Acquisition-related transaction costs are generally charged to expense as incurred and reported as acquisition related costs in the consolidated statements of operations.
If there is an event or change in circumstance that indicates a potential impairment in the value of a real estate investment property, the Company prepares an analysis to determine whether the carrying value of the real estate investment property exceeds its estimated fair value. The Company considers both quantitative and qualitative factors including recurring operating losses, significant decreases in occupancy, and significant adverse changes in legal factors and business climate. If impairment indicators are present, the Company compares the projected cash flows of the property over its remaining useful life, on an
-12-

Table of Contents
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
undiscounted basis, to the carrying value of that property. The Company assesses its undiscounted projected cash flows based upon estimated capitalization rates, historic operating results and market conditions that may affect the property. If the carrying value is greater than the undiscounted projected cash flows, the Company would recognize an impairment loss equivalent to an amount required to adjust the carrying amount to its then estimated fair value. The value of any property is sensitive to the actual results of any of the aforementioned estimated factors, either individually or taken as a whole. Should the actual results differ from management’s projections, the valuation could be negatively or positively affected. The Company did not recognize an impairment loss on any of its real estate during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
Interest, real estate taxes, development-related salary costs and other carrying costs are capitalized on projects under development and construction. Upon substantial completion of construction and the placement of the assets into service, rental income, real estate tax expense, property operating expenses (consisting of payroll, repairs and maintenance, utilities, insurance and other property related expenses) and depreciation are included in current operations and capitalization of interest ceases. Property operating expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Interest capitalized totaled $243,000 and $34,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Commercial development projects are considered substantially complete and available for occupancy upon completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from the cessation of major construction activity. Multi-family residential development projects are considered substantially complete and available for occupancy upon receipt of the certificate of occupancy from the appropriate licensing authority. Substantially completed portions of a project are accounted for as separate projects.
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method and estimated useful lives of generally between 35 and 50 years for base buildings, or a shorter period if management determines that the building has a shorter useful life, and up to 20 years for certain other improvements that extend the useful lives. Leasehold improvement expenditures are capitalized when certain criteria are met, including when the Company supervises construction and will own the improvements. Tenant improvements are amortized, over the shorter of the lives of the related leases or the useful life of the improvements, using the straight-line method. Depreciation expense in the consolidated statements of operations totaled $17.9 million and $25.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The $7.7 million decrease was primarily due to $8.0 million of additional depreciation expense recorded in 2013 on the building at Van Ness Square as a result of the reduction of its estimated remaining useful life to four months effective January 1, 2013. Repairs and maintenance expense totaled $6.5 million and $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and is included in property operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. An increase of $1.7 million in snow removal costs was the primary cause of increased property operating expenses.
Revenue Recognition
Rental and interest income are accrued as earned except when doubt exists as to collectability, in which case the accrual is discontinued. Recognition of rental income commences when control of the space has been given to the tenant. When rental payments due under leases vary from a straight-line basis because of free rent periods or scheduled rent increases, income is recognized on a straight-line basis. Expense recoveries represent a portion of property operating expenses billed to tenants, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs, and are recognized in the period in which the expenses are incurred. Rental income based on a tenant’s revenue (“percentage rent”) is accrued when a tenant reports sales that exceed a breakpoint specified in the lease agreement.
Stock-based Employee Compensation, Stock Plan and Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors
The Company uses the fair value method to value and account for employee stock options. The fair value of options granted is determined at the time of each award using the Black-Scholes model, a widely used method for valuing stock-based employee compensation, and the following assumptions: (1) Expected Volatility determined using the most recent trading history of the Company’s common stock (month-end closing prices) corresponding to the average expected term of the options; (2) Average Expected Term of the options is based on prior exercise history, scheduled vesting and the expiration date; (3) Expected Dividend Yield determined by management after considering the Company’s current and historic dividend yield rates, the Company’s yield in relation to other retail REITs and the Company’s market yield at the grant date; and (4) a Risk-free Interest Rate based upon the market yields of US Treasury obligations with maturities corresponding to the average expected term of the options at the grant date. The Company amortizes the value of options granted ratably over the vesting period and includes the amounts as compensation in general and administrative expenses.
The Company has a stock plan, which was originally approved in 2004, amended in 2008 and 2013 and which expires in 2023, for the purpose of attracting and retaining executive officers, directors and other key personnel (the “Stock Plan”). Pursuant to the Stock Plan, the Compensation Committee established a Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors for the benefit of its directors and their beneficiaries, which replaced a previous Deferred Compensation and Stock Plan for Directors.

A director may make an annual election to defer all or part of his or her director’s fees and has the option to have the fees paid in cash, in shares of common stock or in a combination of cash and shares of common stock upon separation from the Board. If the director elects to have fees paid in stock, fees earned during a calendar quarter are aggregated and divided by the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the first trading day of the following quarter to determine the number of shares to be credited to the director. As of June 30, 2014, the director's deferred fee accounts comprise 227,233 shares.
The Compensation Committee has also approved an annual award of shares of the Company’s common stock as additional compensation to each director serving on the Board of Directors as of the record date for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The shares are awarded as of each Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and their issuance may not be deferred.
Noncontrolling Interest
Saul Centers is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, owning a 74.3% common interest as of June 30, 2014. Noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership is comprised of limited partnership units owned by the Saul Organization. Noncontrolling interest reflected on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets is increased for earnings allocated to limited partnership interests and distributions reinvested in additional units, and is decreased for limited partner distributions. Noncontrolling interest reflected on the consolidated statements of operations represents earnings allocated to limited partnership interests.
Per Share Data
Per share data for net income (basic and diluted) is computed using weighted average shares of common stock. Convertible limited partnership units and employee stock options are the Company’s potentially dilutive securities. For all periods presented, the convertible limited partnership units are non-dilutive. The following table sets forth, for the indicated periods, weighted averages of the number of common shares outstanding, basic and dilutive, the effect of dilutive options and the number of options which are not dilutive because the average price of the Company's common stock was less than the exercise prices. The treasury stock method was used to measure the effect of the dilution.

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
(In thousands) | 2014 |  | 2013 |  | 2014 |  | 2013
Weighted average common shares outstanding-Basic | 20,717 |  |  | 20,301 |  |  | 20,670 |  |  | 20,224 |

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property Plant and Equipment (Topic 360)” (“ASU 2014-08”). ASU 2014-08 changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations such that disposals of components of an entity will be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations. ASU 2014-08 also requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years and early adoption is permitted. The Company retrospectively adopted ASU 2014-08 on April 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance and will require an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years and early adoption is not permitted. ASU 2014-09 must be applied retrospectively by either restating prior periods or by recognizing the cumulative effect as of the first date of application. We have not yet selected a transition method and are evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

As of March 31, 2014, the carrying amounts of the associated assets and liabilities were $0.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively. There was no debt on the property.

4. | Noncontrolling Interest - Holders of Convertible Limited Partnership Units in the Operating Partnership

As of June 30, 2014, the Saul Organization holds a 25.7% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership represented by approximately 7.2 million convertible limited partnership units. These units are convertible into shares of Saul Centers’ common stock, at the option of the unit holder, on a one-for-one basis provided that, in accordance with the Saul Centers, Inc. Articles of Incorporation, the rights may not be exercised at any time that the Saul Organization beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, in the aggregate more than 39.9% of the value of the outstanding common stock and preferred stock of Saul Centers (the “Equity Securities”). As of June 30, 2014, approximately 975,000 units were convertible into shares of Saul Centers common stock.
The impact of the Saul Organization’s approximately 25.7% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership is reflected as Noncontrolling Interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Fully converted partnership units and diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, were approximately 27.9 million and 27.2 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, were approximately 27.8 million and 27.2 million, respectively.

5. | Notes Payable, Revolving Credit Facility, Interest and Amortization of Deferred Debt Costs

The Company’s outstanding debt totaled approximately $820.1 million at June 30, 2014, of which approximately $790.2 million was fixed-rate debt and approximately $29.9 million was variable rate debt. The carrying value of the properties collateralizing the notes payable totaled $901.0 million as of June 30, 2014.
During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company amended and restated its revolving credit facility. At June 30, 2014, the Company had a $275.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility, which can be used for working capital, property acquisitions, development projects or letters of credit. The revolving credit facility matures on June 23, 2018, and may be extended by the Company for one additional year subject to the Company’s satisfaction of certain conditions. Saul Centers and certain consolidated subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership have guaranteed the payment obligations of the Operating Partnership under the revolving credit facility. Letters of credit may be issued under the revolving credit facility. On June 30, 2014, based on the value of the Company’s unencumbered properties, approximately $274.4 million was available under the line, no borrowings were outstanding and approximately $628,000 was committed for letters of credit. The interest rate under the facility is variable and equals the sum of one-month LIBOR and a margin that is based on the Company’s leverage ratio, and which can range from 145 basis points to 200 basis points. As of June 30, 2014, the margin was 145 basis points.
At June 30, 2014, the Company had a $71.6 million construction-to-permanent loan, with no amount outstanding, which is secured by and will be used to partially finance the construction of Park Van Ness.
Saul Centers is a guarantor of the revolving credit facility, of which the Operating Partnership is the borrower. The Operating Partnership is the guarantor of (a) a portion of each of the Northrock bank loan (approximately $7.5 million of the $14.7 million outstanding at June 30, 2014) and the Metro Pike Center bank loan (approximately $7.8 million of the $15.2 million outstanding at June 30, 2014) and (b) the $71.6 million Park Van Ness construction-to-permanent loan, which guarantee will be reduced and eventually eliminated subject to the achievement of certain leasing and cash flow levels. The fixed-rate notes payable are all non-recourse.
The Company accounts for the sale-leaseback of the Olney Center as a secured financing and, accordingly, the $11.0 million proceeds from the sale are included in notes payable. Monthly payments of approximately $60,400, which increase by 1.5% annually, are required under the lease and interest accrues at a fixed rate of 8.0%, which is the implicit rate under the lease. The purchaser has the right to sell the property to the Company at any time from and after April 2016 at a price equal to $11.0 million increased by 1.5% annually beginning January 1, 2015 and continuing each January thereafter. The Company has an option to repurchase the property for $14.6 million when the lease expires in April 2034.
At December 31, 2013, the Company’s outstanding debt totaled approximately $820.1 million, of which $789.9 million was fixed rate debt and $30.2 million was variable rate debt. No borrowings were outstanding on the Company’s unsecured

6. | Stockholders’ Equity and Noncontrolling Interest

The consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, reflect noncontrolling interest of $6.9 million and ($0.4 million), respectively, representing the Saul Organization’s share of net income (loss) for each period.
In March 2013, the Company redeemed 60% of its then-outstanding 8% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A Stock”) and all of its 9% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. Costs associated with the redemptions were charged against accumulated deficit.

Their annual compensation is fixed by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, with the exception of the Senior Vice President-Chief Accounting Officer whose share of annual compensation allocated to the Company is determined by the shared services agreement (described below).
The Company participates in a multiemployer 401K plan with entities in the Saul Organization which covers those full-time employees who meet the requirements as specified in the plan. Company contributions, which are included in general and administrative expense or property operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, at the discretionary amount of up to six percent of the employee’s cash compensation, subject to certain limits, were $191,600 and $189,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. All amounts deferred by employees and the Company are fully vested.
The Company also participates in a multiemployer nonqualified deferred compensation plan with entities in the Saul Organization which covers those full-time employees who meet the requirements as specified in the plan.

The terms of the Agreement and the payments made thereunder are deemed reasonable by management and are reviewed annually by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, which consists entirely of independent directors. Billings by the Saul Organization for the Company’s share of these ancillary costs and expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, which included rental expense for the Company’s headquarters lease, totaled approximately $3.6 million and $3.2 million, respectively.

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities included approximately $479,900 and $499,000, respectively, representing amounts due to the Saul Organization for the Company’s share of these ancillary costs and expenses.
The Company subleases its corporate headquarters space from a member of the Saul Organization. The lease commenced in March 2002, was extended in 2012 for five years, and provides for base rent increases of 3% per year, with payment of a pro-rata share of operating expenses over a base year amount. The Agreement requires each party to pay an allocation of total rental payments based on a percentage proportionate to the number of employees employed by each party. The Company’s rent expense was $414,000 and $428,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and is included in general and administrative expense.

The table below summarizes the option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2014:

|  | Number of Shares |  | Weighted Average Exercise Price per share |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at January 1 |  | 753,625 |  |  | $ | 42.55 |  |  | $ | 4,529,206 |
Granted |  | 200,000 |  |  | 47.03 |  |  | 314,000 |
Exercised |  | (99,685 | ) |  | 37.23 |  |  | 1,018,511 |
Expired/Forfeited |  | (37,500 | ) |  | 43.56 |  |  |
Outstanding June 30 |  | 816,440 |  |  | 44.26 |  |  | 4,078,348 |
Exercisable June 30 |  | 448,940 |  |  | 43.87 |  |  | 2,659,611 |

The intrinsic value measures the price difference between the options’ exercise price and the closing share price quoted by the New York Stock Exchange as of the date of measurement. The intrinsic value for shares exercised during the period was calculated by using the closing share price on the date of exercise. At June 30, 2014, the closing share price of $48.60 was lower than the exercise price of the 90,000 and 22,500 outstanding options granted in 2007 and 2008, respectively, and, therefore, those options had no intrinsic value as of June 30, 2014. The weighted average remaining contractual life of the Company’s outstanding and exercisable options is 7.2 years and 5.7 years, respectively.

9. | Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reasonable estimates of their fair value. The aggregate fair value of the notes payable with fixed-rate payment terms was determined using Level 3 data in a discounted cash flow approach, which is based upon management’s estimate of borrowing rates and loan terms currently available to the Company for fixed-rate financing and, assuming long-term interest rates of approximately 4.35% and 4.85%, would be approximately $852.0 million and $828.7 million, respectively, compared to the carrying value of $790.2 million and $789.9 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. A change in any of the significant inputs may lead to a change in the Company’s fair value measurement of its debt.
The Company carries its interest rate swap at fair value. The Company has determined the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy with the exception of the impact of counter-party risk, which was determined using Level 3 inputs and is not significant. Derivative instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because their values are determined using third-party pricing models which contain inputs that are derived from observable market data. Where possible, the values produced by the pricing models are verified by market prices. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit spreads, measure of volatility, and correlations of such inputs. The swap agreement terminates on July 1, 2020. As of June 30, 2014, the fair value of the interest-rate swap was approximately $3.2 million and is included in “Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheets. The decrease in value from inception of the swap is reflected in “Other Comprehensive Income” in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Amounts recognized in earnings are included in Changes in Fair Value of Derivatives in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

10. | Commitments and Contingencies

Neither the Company nor the current portfolio properties are subject to any material litigation, nor, to management’s knowledge, is any material litigation currently threatened against the Company, other than routine litigation and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that these items, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on the Company or the current portfolio properties.

11. | Business Segments

The Company has two reportable business segments: Shopping Centers and Mixed-Use Properties. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies (see Note 2). The Company evaluates performance based upon income and cash flows from real estate of the combined properties in each segment. All of our properties within each segment generate similar types of revenues and expenses related to tenant rent, reimbursements and operating expenses. Although services are provided to a range of tenants, the types of services provided to them are similar within each segment. The properties in each portfolio have similar economic characteristics and the nature of the products and services provided to our tenants and the method to distribute such services are consistent throughout the portfolio. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year information to conform to the 2014 presentation.

Mr. Lansdale and Ms. Kearns are also officers of other entities affiliated with the Company and controlled by B. Francis Saul II and his family members, which we refer to as the Saul Organization. The Company believes that these officers will spend sufficient management time to meet their responsibilities as its officers.
The Operating Partnership entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated June 24, 2014, by and among the Operating Partnership, as Borrower, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Syndication Agent, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., Capital One, N.A., and Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania, as Lenders (the “New Credit Agreement”).
The New Credit Agreement replaces the Credit Agreement dated May 21, 2012, by and among the Operating Partnership, as Borrower, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Syndication Agent, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., Capital One, N.A. and Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania as Lenders (as amended, the “Original Agreement”). The Original Agreement consisted of a $175,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Original Facility”) with a maturity date of May 20, 2016. As of the date the Original Facility was replaced, the applicable interest rate was 1.75% (LIBOR of 0.15% plus a spread of 1.60%).
The New Credit Agreement consists of a $275,000,000 revolving credit facility (the “New Facility”) maturing on June 23, 2018, which term may be extended by the Company for one additional year, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions.
The Company and certain subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership and the Company have guaranteed the payment obligations of the Partnership under the New Facility.
Overview
The Company’s principal business activity is the ownership, management and development of income-producing properties. The Company’s long-term objectives are to increase cash flow from operations and to maximize capital appreciation of its real estate investments.
The Company’s primary operating strategy is to focus on its community and neighborhood shopping center business and to operate its properties to achieve both cash flow growth and capital appreciation. Management believes there is potential for long-term growth in cash flow as existing leases for space in the Shopping Centers and Mixed-Use properties expire and are renewed, or newly-available or vacant space is leased. The Company intends to renegotiate leases where possible and seek new tenants for available space in order to optimize the mix of uses to improve foot traffic through the Shopping Centers. As leases expire, management expects to revise rental rates, lease terms and conditions, relocate existing tenants, reconfigure tenant spaces and introduce new tenants with the goals of increasing occupancy, improving overall retail sales, and ultimately increasing cash flow as economic conditions improve. In those circumstances in which leases are not otherwise expiring, or in connection with renovations or relocations, management selectively attempts to increase cash flow through a variety of means, including recapturing leases with below market rents and re-leasing at market rates, as well as replacing financially troubled tenants. When possible, management also will seek to include scheduled increases in base rent, as well as percentage rental provisions, in its leases.
The following table sets forth average annualized base rent per square foot and average annualized effective rent per square foot for the Company's Commercial properties (all properties except for the Clarendon Center apartments). For purposes of this table, annualized effective rent is annualized base rent minus amortized tenant improvements and amortized leasing commissions.

|  | Six months ended June 30, |
|  | 2014 |  | 2013 |  | 2012 |  | 2011 |  | 2010 |
Base rent |  | $ | 18.03 |  |  | $ | 17.67 |  |  | $ | 16.95 |  |  | $ | 16.54 |  |  | $ | 16.46 |  |
Effective rent |  | $ | 16.42 |  |  | $ | 15.77 |  |  | $ | 15.41 |  |  | $ | 15.09 |  |  | $ | 15.09 |  |

The Company’s redevelopment and renovation objective is to selectively and opportunistically redevelop and renovate its properties, by replacing leases that have below market rents with strong, traffic-generating anchor stores such as supermarkets and drug stores, as well as other desirable local, regional and national tenants. The Company’s strategy remains focused on continuing the operating performance and internal growth of its existing Shopping Centers, while enhancing this growth with selective retail redevelopments and renovations.

During the first quarter of 2014, the Company completed the demolition of Van Ness Square and incurred approximately $503,000 of demolition costs. The Company is developing Park Van Ness, a 271-unit residential project with approximately 9,000 square feet of street-level retail, below street-level structured parking, and amenities including a community room, landscaped courtyards, a fitness room and a rooftop pool and deck. Construction is projected to be completed by late 2015. Excavation is substantially complete and sub-surface utility installation and pouring of building footings have commenced. The total cost of the project, excluding predevelopment expense and land, which the Company has owned, is expected to be approximately $93.0 million, a portion of which will be financed with a $71.6 million construction-to-permanent loan of which zero was outstanding at June 30, 2014.
In April 2014, the Company purchased for $11.0 million a single-tenant retail property with a 40,700 square foot furniture store located at 1582 Rockville Pike in Rockville, Maryland, and concurrently sold to the same party, for $11.0 million, the 53,765 square foot Olney Center located in Olney, Maryland. 1582 Rockville Pike is contiguous with and an expansion of the Company’s assets at 1500 and 1580 Rockville Pike.
Simultaneously with the sale of the Olney Center, the Company entered into a lease of the property with the buyer and the Company continues to operate, lease and manage the property. The lease term is 20 years and the Company has the option to purchase the property for $14.6 million at the end of the lease term. The purchaser has the right to sell the property to the Company at any time from and after April 2016 at a price equal to $11.0 million increased by 1.5% annually beginning January 1, 2015 and continuing each January thereafter. The Company has accounted for this transaction as a secured financing.
In April 2014, the Company sold for $7.5 million the 70,040 square foot Giant Center located in Milford Mill, Maryland and recognized a $6.1 million gain. As of March 31, 2014, the carrying amounts of the associated assets and liabilities were $0.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively. There was no debt on the property.
The Company's tenants were further impacted by winter weather, as heavy snowfall in the Mid-Atlantic states during the first quarter of 2014 hindered the ability of customers to shop. The costs of removing snow from the Company's properties during the three months ended March 31, 2014, was approximately $2.0 million, approximately 60% of which will be billable to tenants.
During the most recent downturn in the national real estate market, the effects on the office and retail markets in the metropolitan Washington, D.C. area, where the majority of the Company’s properties are located, initially were less severe than in many other areas of the country. However, continued economic stress in the local economies where the Company’s properties are located resulting from (a) issues facing the Federal government relating to spending cuts and budget policies (b) the severe winter weather conditions may lead to increased tenant bankruptcies, increased vacancies and decreased rental rates.
While overall consumer confidence appears to have improved, retailers continue to be cautious about capital allocation when implementing store expansion. Vacancies continue to remain elevated in certain submarkets compared to pre-recession levels; however the Company’s overall leasing percentage on a comparative same property basis, which excludes the impact of properties not in operation for the entirety of the comparable periods, was 94.2% at June 30, 2014, compared to 93.6% at June 30, 2013.
The Company maintains a ratio of total debt to total asset value of under 50%, which allows the Company to obtain additional secured borrowings if necessary. As of June 30, 2014, amortizing fixed-rate debt with staggered maturities from 2015 to 2028 represented approximately 96.4% of the Company’s notes payable, thus minimizing refinancing risk. As of June 30, 2014, the Company’s variable-rate debt consisted of a $14.7 million bank term loan secured by Northrock Shopping Center, and a $15.2 million bank term loan secured by Metro Pike Center. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has availability of approximately $274.4 million under its $275.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit.
Although it is management’s present intention to concentrate future acquisition and development activities on community and neighborhood shopping centers and Mixed-Use Properties in the Washington, DC/Baltimore metropolitan area and the southeastern region of the United States, the Company may, in the future, also acquire other types of real estate in other areas of the country as opportunities present themselves. While the Company may diversify in terms of property locations, size and market, the Company does not set any limit on the amount or percentage of Company assets that may be invested in any one property or any one geographic area.

Critical Accounting Policies
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), which requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting of financial position and results of operations. If judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. The Company has identified the following policies that, due to estimates and assumptions inherent in these policies, involve a relatively high degree of judgment and complexity.
Real Estate Investments
Real estate investment properties are stated at historic cost less depreciation. Although the Company intends to own its real estate investment properties over a long term, from time to time it will evaluate its market position, market conditions, and other factors and may elect to sell properties that do not conform to the Company’s investment profile. Management believes that the Company’s real estate assets have generally appreciated in value since their acquisition or development and, accordingly, the aggregate current value exceeds their aggregate net book value and also exceeds the value of the Company’s liabilities as reported in the financial statements. Because the financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, they do not report the current value of the Company’s real estate investment properties.
The Company purchases real estate investment properties from time to time and records assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including land, buildings, and intangibles related to in-place leases and customer relationships, based on their fair values. The fair value of buildings generally is determined as if the buildings were vacant upon acquisition and subsequently leased at market rental rates and considers the present value of all cash flows expected to be generated by the property including an initial lease up period. The Company determines the fair value of above and below market intangibles associated with in-place leases by assessing the net effective rent and remaining term of the in-place lease relative to market terms for similar leases at acquisition taking into consideration the remaining contractual lease period, renewal periods, and the likelihood of the tenant exercising its renewal options. The fair value of below market lease intangibles is recorded as deferred income and accreted as additional lease revenue over the remaining contractual lease period and any renewal option periods included in the valuation analysis. The fair value of above market lease intangibles is recorded as a deferred asset and amortized as a reduction of revenue over the remaining contractual lease term. The Company determines the fair value of at-market in-place leases considering the cost of acquiring similar leases, the foregone rents associated with the lease-up period and carrying costs associated with the lease-up period. Intangible assets associated with at-market in-place leases are amortized as additional expense over the remaining contractual lease term. To the extent customer relationship intangibles are present in an acquisition, the fair value of the intangibles are amortized over the life of the customer relationship.
If there is an event or change in circumstance that indicates a potential impairment in the value of a real estate investment property, the Company prepares an analysis to determine whether the carrying value of the real estate investment property exceeds its estimated fair value. The Company considers both quantitative and qualitative factors including recurring operating losses, significant decreases in occupancy, and significant adverse changes in legal factors and business climate. If impairment indicators are present, the Company compares the projected cash flows of the property over its remaining useful life, on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying value of that property. The Company assesses its undiscounted projected cash flows based upon estimated capitalization rates, historic operating results and market conditions that may affect the property. If the carrying value is greater than the undiscounted projected cash flows, the Company would recognize an impairment loss equivalent to an amount required to adjust the carrying amount to its then estimated fair value. The fair value of any property is sensitive to the actual results of any of the aforementioned estimated factors, either individually or taken as a whole. Should the actual results differ from management’s projections, the valuation could be negatively or positively affected.
When incurred, the Company capitalizes the cost of improvements that extend the useful life of property and equipment. All repair and maintenance expenditures are expensed when incurred. Leasehold improvements expenditures are capitalized when certain criteria are met, including when we supervise construction and will own the improvement. Tenant improvements that we own are depreciated over the life of the respective lease or the estimated useful life of the improvements, whichever is shorter.
Interest, real estate taxes, development-related salary costs and other carrying costs are capitalized on projects under construction. Upon substantial completion of construction and the placement of assets into service, rental income, direct operating expenses, and depreciation associated with such properties are included in current operations and capitalization of interest ceases. Commercial development projects are substantially complete and available for occupancy upon completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from the cessation of major construction activity. Residential development projects are considered substantially complete and available for occupancy upon receipt of the certificate of occupancy from the appropriate licensing authority. Substantially completed portions of a project are accounted for as separate projects. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method and estimated useful lives generally between 35 and 50 years for base

buildings, or a shorter period if management determines that the building has a shorter useful life, and up to 20 years for certain other improvements.
Deferred Leasing Costs
Certain initial direct costs incurred by the Company in negotiating and consummating successful Commercial leases are capitalized and amortized over the initial base term of the leases. Deferred leasing costs consist of commissions paid to third-party leasing agents as well as internal direct costs such as employee compensation and payroll-related fringe benefits directly related to time spent performing successful leasing-related activities. Such activities include evaluating prospective tenants’ financial condition, evaluating and recording guarantees, collateral and other security arrangements, negotiating lease terms, preparing lease documents and closing transactions. In addition, deferred leasing costs include amounts attributed to in-place leases associated with acquired properties.
Revenue Recognition
Rental and interest income is accrued as earned except when doubt exists as to collectability, in which case the accrual is discontinued. Recognition of rental income commences when control of the space has been given to the tenant. When rental payments due under leases vary from a straight-line basis because of free rent periods or scheduled rent increases, income is recognized on a straight-line basis. Expense recoveries represent a portion of property operating expenses billed to tenants, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs. Expense recoveries are recognized in the period in which the expenses are incurred. Rental income based on a tenant’s revenue, known as percentage rent, is recognized when a tenant reports sales that exceed a breakpoint specified in the lease agreement.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Current and Deferred Receivables
Accounts receivable primarily represent amounts accrued and unpaid from tenants in accordance with the terms of the respective leases, subject to the Company’s revenue recognition policy. Receivables are reviewed monthly and reserves are established with a charge to current period operations when, in the opinion of management, collection of the receivable is doubtful. In addition to rents due currently, accounts receivable include amounts representing minimum rental income accrued on a straight-line basis to be paid by tenants over the remaining term of their respective leases. Reserves are established with a charge to income for tenants whose rent payment history or financial condition casts doubt upon the tenant’s ability to perform under its lease obligations.
Legal Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, which are generally covered by insurance. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes the final outcome of current matters will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position or the results of operations. Once it has been determined that a loss is probable to occur, the estimated amount of the loss is recorded in the financial statements. Both the amount of the loss and the point at which its occurrence is considered probable can be difficult to determine.
Results of Operations
Same property revenue and same property operating income are non-GAAP financial measures of performance and improve the comparability of these measures by excluding the results of properties which were not in operation for the entirety of the comparable reporting periods.
We define same property revenue as total revenue minus the sum of interest income and revenue of properties not in operation for the entirety of the comparable reporting periods, and we define same property operating income as net income plus the sum of interest expense and amortization of deferred debt costs, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expense, loss on the early extinguishment of debt (if any), predevelopment expense and acquisition related costs, minus the sum of interest income, the change in the fair value of derivatives, gains on property dispositions (if any) and the results of properties which were not in operation for the entirety of the comparable periods.
Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating same property revenue and same property operating income. Accordingly, our same property revenue and same property operating income may not be comparable to those of other REITs.
Same property revenue and same property operating income are used by management to evaluate and compare the operating performance of our properties, and to determine trends in earnings, because these measures are not affected by the cost of our funding, the impact of depreciation and amortization expenses, gains or losses from the acquisition and sale of

operating real estate assets, general and administrative expenses or other gains and losses that relate to ownership of our properties. We believe the exclusion of these items from revenue and operating income is useful because the resulting measures capture the actual revenue generated and actual expenses incurred by operating our properties.
Same property revenue and same property operating income are measures of the operating performance of our properties but do not measure our performance as a whole. Such measures are therefore not substitutes for total revenue, net income or operating income as computed in accordance with GAAP.
The tables below provide reconciliations of total revenue and operating income under GAAP to same property revenue and operating income for the indicated periods. The same property results include 49 Shopping Centers and 6 Mixed-Use properties for each period.

The $3.3 million increase in same property revenue for the 2014 quarter compared to the 2013 quarter was primarily due to (a) a bankruptcy settlement and collection related to a former tenant at Seven Corners ($1.6 million), (b) a 55,000 square foot increase in leased space ($240,000) and (c) a $0.57 per square foot increase in base rent ($1.2 million).
The $7.3 million increase in same property revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013 is due primarily to (a) a bankruptcy settlement and collection related to a former tenant at Seven Corners ($1.6 million), (b) the impact of a lease termination at Seven Corners ($1.2 million), (c) higher expense recoveries primarily as a result of snow removal ($1.4 million), (d) a 78,100 square foot increase in leased space ($690,000) and (e) a $0.36 per square foot increase in base rent ($1.5 million).

Total operating expenses decreased 10.1% in the 2014 Period compared to the 2013 Period primarily due to (a) $8.0 million of additional depreciation expense recorded in 2013 and (b) $3.1 million of lower predevelopment expense, both of which resulted from the Company’s redevelopment activities at Van Ness Square, partially offset by (c) $1.7 million of increased snow removal costs.
Property operating expenses. The increase in property operating expenses for the 2014 Period primarily reflects a $1.7 million increase in snow removal costs.
Provision for credit losses. The provision for credit losses for the 2014 Period represents 0.29% of the Company’s revenue, a decline from 0.56% for the 2013 Period.
Interest expense and amortization of deferred debt. Interest expense decreased in the 2014 Period compared to the 2013 Period primarily because of a $209,000 increase in the amount of interest capitalized.
Depreciation and amortization of deferred leasing costs. The decrease in depreciation and amortization to $20.5 million in the 2014 Period from $28.8 million in the 2013 Period was primarily due to $8.0 million of additional depreciation expense on the building at Van Ness Square as a result of the reduction of its estimated remaining useful life to four months effective January 1, 2013.
General and administrative expense. The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to accrued severance costs totaling approximately $1.1 million.
Predevelopment expenses. Predevelopment expenses represent costs incurred, in connection with the redevelopment of Van Ness Square. Predevelopment expenses in the 2014 Period were comprised primarily of demolition costs and in the 2013 Period were comprised primarily of lease termination costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities represents cash received primarily from rental income, plus other income, less property operating expenses, leasing costs, normal recurring general and administrative expenses and interest payments on debt outstanding. The $8.7 million increase in net cash provided by operating activities from 2013 to 2014 is primarily attributable to (a) increased property operating income ($3.1 million), exclusive of the following Seven Corners items, (b) the impact of a lease termination at Seven Corners ($1.2 million) and (c) the impact of a bankruptcy settlement and collection related to a former tenant at Seven Corners ($1.6 million).
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities includes property acquisitions, developments, redevelopments, tenant improvements and other property capital expenditures. Tenant improvement and property capital expenditures totaled $7.0 million and $7.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 primarily reflects:

• | the repayment of notes payable totaling $10.9 million;

• | revolving credit facility principal payments of $11.0 million;

• | distributions to common stockholders totaling $15.7 million;

• | distributions to holders of convertible limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership totaling $5.7 million; and

• | distributions to preferred stockholders totaling $6.4 million,

which was partially offset by:

• | advances of $11.0 million from the revolving credit facility;

• | proceeds of $8.9 million from the issuance of limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership pursuant to our Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan ("DRIP"); and

• | proceeds of $8.2 million from the issuance of common stock pursuant to our DRIP, directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan and the exercise of stock options.

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 primarily reflects:

• | revolving credit facility payments of $161.0 million;

• | repayment of notes payable totaling $47.2 million;

• | partial redemption of Series A Preferred Stock totaling $60.0 million;

• | redemption of Series B Preferred Stock totaling $79.3 million;

• | distributions to common stockholders totaling $14.5 million;

• | payments of $1.3 million for debt financing costs;

• | distributions to holders of convertible limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership totaling $5.0 million; and

• | distributions made to preferred stockholders totaling $8.1 million;

which was partially offset by:

• | proceeds of $83.6 million received from notes payable;

• | advances from the revolving credit facility totaling $123.0 million;

• | proceeds of $135.2 million from the issuance of Series C Preferred Stock; and

• | proceeds of $12.7 million from the issuance of common stock pursuant to our DRIP, directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan and the exercise of stock options.

Liquidity Requirements
Short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of normal recurring operating expenses and capital expenditures, debt service requirements (including debt service relating to additional and replacement debt), distributions to common and preferred stockholders, distributions to unit holders and amounts required for expansion and renovation of the Current Portfolio Properties and selective acquisition and development of additional properties. In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company must distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its “real estate investment trust taxable income,” as defined in the Code. The Company expects to meet these short-term liquidity requirements (other than amounts required for
-35-

Table of Contents
additional property acquisitions and developments) through cash provided from operations, available cash and its existing line of credit.
Long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of obligations under our long-term debt and dividends paid to our preferred shareholders. The Company anticipates that long-term liquidity requirements will also include amounts required for property acquisitions and developments. The Company is developing Park Van Ness, a primarily residential project with street-level retail. The total cost of the project, excluding predevelopment expense and land costs, is expected to be approximately $93.0 million, a portion of which will be funded with a $71.6 million construction-to-permanent loan and the remainder will be funded with the Company's working capital, including its existing line of credit. The Company may also redevelop certain of the Current Portfolio Properties and may develop additional freestanding outparcels or expansions within certain of the Shopping Centers.
Acquisition and development of properties are undertaken only after careful analysis and review, and management’s determination that such properties are expected to provide long-term earnings and cash flow growth. During the coming year, developments, expansions or acquisitions (if any) are expected to be funded with available cash, bank borrowings from the Company’s credit line, construction and permanent financing, proceeds from the operation of the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan or other external debt or equity capital resources available to the Company. Any future borrowings may be at the Saul Centers, Operating Partnership or Subsidiary Partnership level, and securities offerings may include (subject to certain limitations) the issuance of additional limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership which can be converted into shares of Saul Centers common stock. The availability and terms of any such financing will depend upon market and other conditions.
As of June 30, 2014, the scheduled maturities of debt, including scheduled principal amortization, for years ending December 31, were as follows:

(In thousands) | Balloon Payments |  | Scheduled Principal Amortization |  | Total
July 1 through December 31, 2014 | $ | — |  |  | $ | 11,223 |  |  | $ | 11,223 |

| $ | 553,474 |  |  | $ | 266,671 |  |  | $ | 820,145 |

Management believes that the Company’s capital resources, which at June 30, 2014 included cash balances of approximately $21.8 million and borrowing availability of approximately $274.4 million on its unsecured revolving credit facility, will be sufficient to meet its liquidity needs for the foreseeable future.
Dividend Reinvestments
In December 1995, the Company established a DRIP to allow its common stockholders and holders of limited partnership interests an opportunity to buy additional shares of common stock by reinvesting all or a portion of their dividends or distributions. The DRIP provides for investing in newly issued shares of common stock at a 3% discount from market price without payment of any brokerage commissions, service charges or other expenses. All expenses of the DRIP are paid by the Company. The Company issued 96,037 and 284,580 shares under the DRIP at a weighted average discounted price of $44.54 and $42.25 per share, during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company issued 196,183 limited partnership units under the DRIP at a weighted average price of $45.25 per unit during the six months ended June 30, 2014. No limited partnership units were issued under the DRIP during 2013. The Company also credited 3,763 and 3,727 shares to directors pursuant to the reinvestment of dividends specified by the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan at a weighted average discounted price of $44.61 and $42.25 per share, during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Capital Strategy and Financing Activity
As a general policy, the Company intends to maintain a ratio of its total debt to total asset value of 50% or less and to actively manage the Company’s leverage and debt expense on an ongoing basis in order to maintain prudent coverage of fixed charges. Asset value is the aggregate fair market value of the Current Portfolio Properties and any subsequently acquired
-36-

Table of Contents
properties as reasonably determined by management by reference to the properties’ aggregate cash flow. Given the Company’s current debt level, it is management’s belief that the ratio of the Company’s debt to total asset value was below 50% as of June 30, 2014.
The organizational documents of the Company do not limit the absolute amount or percentage of indebtedness that it may incur. The Board of Directors may, from time to time, reevaluate the Company’s debt/capitalization strategy in light of current economic conditions, relative costs of capital, market values of the Company’s property portfolio, opportunities for acquisition, development or expansion, and such other factors as the Board of Directors then deems relevant. The Board of Directors may modify the Company’s debt/capitalization policy based on such a reevaluation without shareholder approval and consequently, may increase or decrease the Company’s debt to total asset ratio above or below 50% or may waive the policy for certain periods of time. The Company selectively continues to refinance or renegotiate the terms of its outstanding debt in order to achieve longer maturities, and obtain generally more favorable loan terms, whenever management determines the financing environment is favorable.
The Company maintains an unsecured revolving credit facility which was amended and restated in June 2014. The facility provides working capital and funds for acquisitions, certain developments, redevelopments and letters of credit, expires on June 23, 2018, and provides for an additional one-year extension at the Company’s option, subject to the Company’s satisfaction of certain conditions. As of June 30, 2014, no borrowings were outstanding, approximately $274.4 million was available under the line and approximately $628,000 was committed for letters of credit. The interest rate under the facility is variable and equals the sum of one-month LIBOR and a margin that is based on the Company’s leverage ratio, and which can range from 145 basis points to 200 basis points. Based on the leverage ratio as of June 30, 2014, the margin was 145 basis points.
The facility requires the Company and its subsidiaries to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants. The material covenants require the Company, on a consolidated basis, to:

• | maintain tangible net worth, as defined in the loan agreement, of at least $542.1 million plus 80% of the Company’s net equity proceeds received after March 2014;

• | limit the amount of debt as a percentage of gross asset value, as defined in the loan agreement, to less than 60% (leverage ratio);

• | limit the amount of debt so that interest coverage will exceed 2.0x on a trailing four-quarter basis (interest expense coverage); and

• | limit the amount of debt so that interest, scheduled principal amortization and preferred dividend coverage exceeds 1.3x on a trailing four-quarter basis (fixed charge coverage).

As of June 30, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants.
At June 30, 2014, the Company had a $71.6 million construction-to-permanent loan, with no amount outstanding, which is secured by and will be used to partially finance the construction of Park Van Ness.
Saul Centers is a guarantor of the revolving credit facility, of which the Operating Partnership is the borrower. The Operating Partnership is the guarantor of (a) a portion of each of the Northrock bank term loan (approximately $7.5 million of the $14.7 million outstanding at June 30, 2014) and the Metro Pike Center bank loan (approximately $7.8 million of the $15.2 million outstanding at June 30, 2014) and (b) the $71.6 million Park Van Ness construction-to-permanent loan, which guarantee will be reduced and eventually eliminated subject to the achievement of certain leasing and cash flow levels. The fixed-rate notes payable are non-recourse.
Preferred Stock
In March 2013, the Company redeemed 60% of its then-outstanding 8% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A Stock”) and all of its 9% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock.
The Company has outstanding 1.6 million depositary shares, each representing 1/100th of a share of Series A Stock. The depositary shares may be redeemed at the Company’s option, in whole or in part from time to time, at the $25.00 liquidation preference. The depositary shares pay an annual dividend of $2.00 per share, equivalent to 8% of the $25.00 liquidation preference. The Series A preferred stock has no stated maturity, is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and is not convertible into any other securities of the Company. Investors in the depositary shares generally have no voting rights, but will have limited voting rights if the Company fails to pay dividends for six or more quarters (whether or not declared or consecutive) and in certain other events.
-37-

Table of Contents
On February 12, 2013, the Company sold, in an underwritten public offering, 5.6 million depositary shares, each representing 1/100th of a share of 6.875% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, providing net cash proceeds of approximately $135.2 million. The depositary shares may be redeemed at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at the $25.00 liquidation preference plus accrued but unpaid dividends on or after February 12, 2018. The depositary shares pay an annual dividend of $1.71875 per share, equivalent to 6.875% of the $25.00 liquidation preference. The first dividend was paid on April 15, 2013 and covered the period from February 12, 2013 through March 31, 2013. The Series C preferred stock has no stated maturity, is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and is not convertible into any other securities of the Company except in connection with certain changes of control or delisting events. Investors in the depositary shares generally have no voting rights, but will have limited voting rights if the Company fails to pay dividends for six or more quarters (whether or not declared or consecutive) and in certain other events.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on the Company’s financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Funds From Operations
Funds From Operations (FFO)1 available to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2014, totaled $41.2 million, an increase of 51.6% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in FFO available to common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily due to (a) a charge against common equity in the 2013 Period resulting from the redemption of preferred stock ($5.2 million), (b) increased property operating income ($3.1 million) exclusive of the following Seven Corners items, (c) the impact of a lease termination at Seven Corners ($1.2 million), (d) the impact of a bankruptcy settlement and collection related to a former tenant at Seven Corners ($1.6 million), (e) lower predevelopment expenses related to Park Van Ness ($3.1 million) and (f) lower preferred stock dividends ($1.2 million), partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses ($1.4 million).
The following table presents a reconciliation from net income to FFO available to common shareholders for the periods indicated:

1 | The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) developed FFO as a relative non-GAAP financial measure of performance of an equity REIT in order to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP. FFO is defined by NAREIT as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and excluding extraordinary items, impairment charges on depreciable real estate assets and gains or losses from property dispositions. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, which is disclosed in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the applicable periods. There are no material legal or functional restrictions on the use of FFO. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income, its most directly comparable GAAP measure, as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Management considers FFO a meaningful supplemental measure of operating performance because it primarily excludes the assumption that the value of the real estate assets diminishes predictably over time (i.e. depreciation), which is contrary to what the Company believes occurs with its assets, and because industry analysts have accepted it as a performance measure. FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other REITs.

Acquisitions and Redevelopments
During the remainder of the year, the Company will continue its activities related to the development of Park Van Ness, may redevelop certain of the Current Portfolio Properties and may develop additional freestanding outparcels or expansions within certain of the Shopping Centers. Acquisition and development of properties are undertaken only after careful analysis and review, and management’s determination that such properties are expected to provide long-term earnings and cash flow growth. During the balance of the year, any developments, expansions or acquisitions are expected to be funded with bank borrowings from the Company’s credit line, construction financing, proceeds from the operation of the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan or other external capital resources available to the Company.

The Company has been selectively involved in acquisition, development, redevelopment and renovation activities. It continues to evaluate the acquisition of land parcels for retail and mixed-use development and acquisitions of operating properties for opportunities to enhance operating income and cash flow growth. The Company also continues to analyze redevelopment, renovation and expansion opportunities within the portfolio. The following describes the acquisition, development, redevelopment and renovation activities of the Company in 2013 and the six months ended June 30, 2014.
Park Van Ness
During the first quarter of 2014, the Company completed the demolition of Van Ness Square and incurred approximately $503,000 of demolition costs. The Company is developing Park Van Ness, a 271-unit residential project with approximately 9,000 square feet of street-level retail, below street-level structured parking, and amenities including a community room, landscaped courtyards, a fitness room and a rooftop pool and deck. Construction is projected to be completed by late 2015. Excavation is substantially complete and sub-surface utility installation and pouring of building footings have commenced. The total cost of the project, excluding predevelopment expense and land (which the Company has owned), is expected to be approximately $93.0 million, a portion of which will be financed with a $71.6 million construction-to-permanent loan.
Kentlands Pad
In August 2013, the Company purchased for $4.3 million, a retail pad with a 7,100 square foot restaurant building located in Gaithersburg, Maryland, which is contiguous with and an expansion of the Company's other Kentlands assets, and incurred acquisition costs of $99,000. The Company has leased the building to a restaurant which opened in the second quarter of 2014.
Hunt Club Pad
In December 2013, the Company purchased for $0.8 million, including acquisition costs, a retail pad with a 5,500 square foot vacant building located in Apopka, Florida, which is contiguous with and an expansion of the Company's other Hunt Club asset.
1580 and 1582 Rockville Pike
In January 2014, the Company purchased for $8.0 million a single-tenant retail property with a 12,100 square foot CVS Pharmacy located at 1580 Rockville Pike in Rockville, Maryland, and incurred acquisition costs of $163,000.
In April 2014, the Company purchased for $11.0 million a single-tenant retail property with a 40,700 square foot furniture store located at 1582 Rockville Pike in Rockville, Maryland, and incurred acquisition costs totaling approximately $0.2 million. Concurrently with the purchase, the Company sold to the same party, for $11.0 million, the 53,765 square foot Olney Center located in Olney, Maryland.
The properties at 1580 and 1582 Rockville Pike are contiguous with and an expansion of the Company’s assets at 1500 Rockville Pike. When combined with 1500 Rockville Pike, the three properties comprise 9.2 acres which are zoned for development potential of up to 1.1 million square feet of mixed-use space. The Company is actively engaged in a plan for redevelopment but has not committed to any timetable for commencement of construction.
Olney
Simultaneously with the sale of Olney Center, the Company entered into a lease of the property with the buyer and the Company continues to operate and manage the property. The lease term is 20 years and the Company has the option to purchase the property for $14.6 million at the end of the lease term. The purchaser has the right to sell the property to the Company at any time from and after April 2016 at a price equal to $11.0 million increased by 1.5% annually beginning January 1, 2015 and continuing each January thereafter. The Company has accounted for this transaction as a secured financing.
Giant Center
In April 2014, the Company sold for $7.5 million the 70,040 square foot Giant Center located in Milford Mill, Maryland and recognized a $6.1 million gain. As of March 31, 2014, the carrying amounts of the associated assets and liabilities were $0.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively. There was no debt on the property.

The following chart sets forth certain information regarding Commercial leases at our properties.

| Total Properties |  | Total Square Footage |  | Percent Leased
| Shopping Centers |  | Mixed-Use |  | Shopping Centers |  | Mixed-Use |  | Shopping Centers |  | Mixed-Use
June 30, 2014 | 49 |  |  | 6 |  |  | 7,862,771 |  |  | 1,453,159 |  |  | 94.8 | % |  | 90.3 | %
June 30, 2013 | 50 |  |  | 6 |  |  | 7,878,300 |  |  | 1,452,700 |  |  | 94.3 | % |  | 89.0 | %

As of June 30, 2014, 94.2% of the Commercial portfolio was leased, an increase from 93.6% at June 30, 2013. On a same property basis, 94.2% of the Commercial portfolio was leased, an increase from 93.6% at June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, the Clarendon Center apartments were 100.0% leased compared to 98.4% at June 30, 2013.
The following table shows selected data for leases executed in the indicated periods. The information is based on executed leases without adjustment for the timing of occupancy, tenant defaults, or landlord concessions. The base rent for an expiring lease is the annualized contractual base rent, on a cash basis, as of the expiration date of the lease. The base rent for a new or renewed lease is the annualized contractual base rent, on a cash basis, as of the expected rent commencement date. Because tenants that execute leases may not ultimately take possession of their space or pay all of their contractual rent, the changes presented in the table provide information only about trends in market rental rates. The actual changes in rental income received by the Company may be different.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is exposed to certain financial market risks, the most predominant being fluctuations in interest rates. Interest rate fluctuations are monitored by management as an integral part of the Company’s overall risk management program, which recognizes the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.
The Company may, where appropriate, employ derivative instruments, such as interest rate swaps, to mitigate the risk of interest rate fluctuations. The Company does not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. On June 29, 2010, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a $45.6 million notional amount to manage the interest rate risk associated with $45.6 million of variable-rate debt. The swap agreement was effective July 1, 2010, terminates on July 1, 2020 and effectively fixes the interest rate on the debt at 5.83%. The fair value of the swap at June 30, 2014 was approximately $3.2 million and is reflected in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.
The Company is exposed to interest rate fluctuations which will affect the amount of interest expense of its variable rate debt and the fair value of its fixed rate debt. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had variable rate indebtedness totaling $29.9 million. If the interest rates on the Company’s variable rate debt instruments outstanding at June 30, 2014 had been one percentage point higher, our annual interest expense relating to these debt instruments would have increased by $299,000 based on those balances. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had fixed-rate indebtedness totaling $790.2 million with a weighted average interest rate of 5.67%. If interest rates on the Company’s fixed-rate debt instruments at June 30, 2014 had been one percentage point higher, the fair value of those debt instruments on that date would have been approximately $46.8 million less than the carrying value.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, its Senior Vice President-Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer, and its Senior Vice President-Chief Accounting Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
The Company carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, its Senior Vice President-Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer, and its Senior Vice President-Chief Accounting Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2014. Based on the foregoing, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, its Senior Vice President-Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer and its Senior Vice President-Chief Accounting Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2014.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
