All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements also reflect the Operating Partnership’s ownership of a joint venture entity in which the Operating Partnership has a general partner or controlling interest. This entity is consolidated into the Company’s operations, with noncontrolling interests reflecting the noncontrolling partners’ share of ownership, income, and expenses.
UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Centerspace’s interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods, have been included.
The current period’s results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results which ultimately may be achieved for the year. The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on February 21, 2023.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS, AND RESTRICTED CASH
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and highly liquid investments purchased with maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents consist of our bank deposits and our deposits in a money market mutual fund. As of September 30, 2023 restricted cash consisted primarily of net tax-deferred exchange proceeds remaining from a portion of our dispositions, real estate deposits, and escrows held by lenders. As of December 31, 2022, restricted cash consisted primarily of escrows held by lenders for real estate taxes, insurance, and capital additions. We are potentially exposed to credit risk for cash deposited with FDIC-insured financial institutions in accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Although recent bank failures have increased the risk of loss in such accounts, we have not experienced any losses in such accounts.
LEASES
As a lessor, Centerspace primarily leases multifamily apartment homes which qualify as operating leases with terms that are generally one year or less. Rental revenues are recognized in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 842, Leases, using a method that represents a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, rental income represented approximately 98.1% and 97.4% of total revenues, respectively, and included gross market rent less adjustments for gain or loss to lease, concessions, vacancy loss, and bad debt. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, other property revenues represented the remaining 1.9% and 2.6% of total revenues, respectively, and were primarily driven by other fee income, which is typically recognized when earned, at a point in time. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, rental income represented approximately 98.2% and 97.8% of total revenues, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, other property revenues represented the remaining 1.8% and 2.2% of total revenues, respectively.
Some of the Company’s apartment communities have commercial spaces available for lease. Lease terms for these spaces typically range from three to fifteen years. The leases for commercial spaces generally include options to extend the lease for additional terms.
Many of the leases contain non-lease components for utility reimbursement from residents and common area maintenance from commercial tenants. Centerspace has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for all asset classes. The combined components are included in lease income and are accounted for under ASC 842.
The aggregate amount of future scheduled lease income on commercial operating leases, excluding any variable lease income and non-lease components, as of September 30, 2023, was as follows:

REVENUES AND GAINS ON SALE OF REAL ESTATE
Revenue is recognized in accordance with the transfer of goods and services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled for those goods and services.
Revenue streams that are included in revenues from contracts with customers include other property revenue such as application fees and other miscellaneous items. Centerspace recognizes revenue for these rental related items not included as a component of a lease as earned.
The following table presents the disaggregation of revenue streams for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

In addition to lease income and other property revenue, the Company recognizes gains or losses on the sale of real estate when the criteria for derecognition of an asset are met, including when (1) a contract exists and (2) the buyer obtained control of the nonfinancial asset that was sold. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $11.2 million as a gain on the sale of real estate and other investments. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company did not recognize any gain on the sale of real estate and other investments. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $71.3 million and $27,000, respectively, as a gain on the sale of real estate and other investments.
MARKET CONCENTRATION RISK
We are subject to increased exposure from economic and other competitive factors specific to markets where we hold a significant percentage of the carrying value of our real estate portfolio. As of September 30, 2023, we held more than 10% of the carrying value of our real estate portfolio in each of the following markets: Minneapolis, Minnesota and Denver, Colorado.
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The Company evaluates long-lived assets, including investments in real estate, for impairment indicators at least quarterly. The judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on factors such as operational performance, market conditions, expected holding period of each property, and legal and environmental concerns. If indicators exist, the Company compares the expected future undiscounted cash flows for the property against the carrying amount of that property. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is generally recorded for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying amount. If the anticipated holding period for properties, the estimated fair value of properties, or other factors change based on market conditions or otherwise, the evaluation of impairment charges may be different and such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is subjective and is based, in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates, and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results. Reducing planned property holding periods may increase the likelihood of recording impairment losses.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded no impairment charges.
NOTES RECEIVABLE
The Company has a tax increment financing note receivable (“TIF”) with a principal balance of $5.7 million and $6.1 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which appears within other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The note bears an interest rate of 4.5% with payments due in February and August of each year.
Centerspace originated a $29.9 million construction loan and a $15.3 million mezzanine loan for the development of a multifamily community located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The construction and mezzanine loans bore and accrued interest at 4.5% and 11.5%, respectively. The Company exercised its option to purchase the apartment community in exchange for the loans and cash, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the loans had no remaining balance.
ADVERTISING COSTS
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and reported on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within the Property operating expenses, excluding real estate taxes line item. During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, total advertising expense was $878,000 and $795,000, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, total advertising expense was $2.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

SEVERANCE AND TRANSITION
On March 23, 2023, the Company entered into a Separation and General Release Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) in connection with the departure of former CEO, Mark Decker, Jr. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company incurred total severance costs of $2.2 million for the cash severance and benefits for Mr. Decker, $737,000 in share-based compensation expense for the acceleration of certain equity awards, and $306,000 in other CEO transition related expenses. Refer to Note 11 for additional information on the share-based compensation expense.
INVOLUNTARY CONVERSION OF ASSETS
In April 2023, a portion of an apartment community was destroyed by fire. The Company recorded a write-down of the apartment community asset, in accordance with ASC 610-30 on involuntary conversion of non-monetary assets, totaling $1.0 million with an offsetting insurance receivable recorded within other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2023, the estimated insurance claim was $1.3 million. Any amounts received in excess of the write-down will be recognized when received.
During the three months ended September 30, 2023, Centerspace recorded a $695,000 write-down to an apartment community asset as a result of extensive damage to the pool. Any insurance funds received will be recognized when received in accordance with ASC 610-30.
LITIGATION SETTLEMENT
During the nine months ended, September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a loss on litigation settlement of $2.9 million due to a trial judgment entered against Centerspace on May 8, 2023 for property damage, resulting in monetary losses. Centerspace was the named defendant in a lawsuit where the owner of a neighboring property claimed a retaining wall at one of the Company’s properties was causing water damage to the neighboring property. Subsequent to September 30, 2023, the judgement was ordered and the Company paid the settlement of $2.9 million. The Company cannot, with any level of certainty, predict or estimate if there will be additional costs incurred as a result of the lawsuit.
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Centerspace has determined that its Operating Partnership and each of its less-than-wholly owned real estate partnerships are variable interest entities (each, a “VIE”), as the limited partners or the functional equivalent of limited partners lack substantive kick-out rights and substantive participating rights. The Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIEs, and the VIEs are required to be consolidated on the balance sheet because the Company has a controlling financial interest in the VIEs and has both the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIEs as well as the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. Because the Operating Partnership is a VIE, all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held through a VIE.
NOTE 3 • EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares of beneficial interest (“common shares”) outstanding during the period. Centerspace has issued restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and incentive stock options (“ISOs”) under the 2015 Incentive Plan, Series D Convertible Preferred Units (“Series D preferred units”), and Series E Convertible Preferred Units (“Series E preferred units”), which could have a dilutive effect on the earnings per share upon the vesting of the RSUs or exercise of the ISOs or upon conversion of the Series D or Series E preferred units (refer to Note 4 for further discussion of the Series D and the Series E preferred units). Other than the issuance of RSUs, ISOs, Series D preferred units, and Series E preferred units, there are no outstanding options, warrants, convertible stock or other contractual obligations requiring issuance of additional shares that would result in dilution of earnings. Under the terms of the Operating Partnership’s Agreement of Limited Partnership, limited partners have the right to require the Operating Partnership to redeem their limited partnership units (“Units”) any time following the first anniversary of the date they acquired such Units (“Exchange Right”). Upon the exercise of Exchange Rights, and in Centerspace’s sole discretion, it may issue common shares in exchange for Units on a one-for-one basis.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

As of September 30, 2023, 46 apartment communities were not encumbered by mortgages and were available to provide credit support for the unsecured borrowings. The Company’s primary unsecured credit facility (“unsecured credit facility” or “Facility”) is a revolving, multi-bank line of credit, with the Bank of Montreal serving as administrative agent. The line of credit has total commitments and borrowing capacity of $250.0 million, based on the value of unencumbered properties. As of September 30, 2023, there was no outstanding balance on this line of credit, therefore the additional borrowing availability was $250.0 million. This unsecured credit facility was amended on September 30, 2021 to extend the maturity date to September 2025 and to provide for an accordion option to increase borrowing capacity up to $400.0 million.
On May 31, 2023, the unsecured credit facility was further amended to replace the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as the benchmark alternative reference rate under the Facility. Loans under the Facility outstanding as of the effective date of the Amendment that accrue interest at a rate determined by reference to LIBOR will continue to accrue interest at a rate determined by reference to LIBOR for the interest period applicable to such loans. The line of credit has an interest rate equal to daily SOFR plus a margin of 135 basis points and a spread adjustment of 10 basis points. The interest rates on the line of credit are based, at the Company’s option, on either the lender’s base rate plus a margin, ranging from 25-80 basis points, or daily or term SOFR, plus a margin that ranges from 125-180 basis points based on the consolidated leverage ratio, as defined under the First Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Prior to the amendment, interest rates on the line of credit were based, at the Company’s option, on either the lender’s base rate plus a margin, ranging from 25-80 basis points, or LIBOR , plus a margin that ranges from 125-180 basis points based on the consolidated leverage ratio, as defined under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The unsecured credit facility and unsecured senior notes are subject to customary financial covenants and limitations. The Company believes that it was in compliance with all such financial covenants and limitations as of September 30, 2023.
Centerspace also has a $6.0 million operating line of credit. As of September 30, 2023, there was no outstanding balance on this line of credit. This operating line of credit is designed to enhance treasury management activities and more effectively manage cash balances. This operating line matures on September 30, 2024, with pricing based on SOFR.
Centerspace has a private shelf agreement with PGIM, Inc., an affiliate of Prudential Financial, Inc., and certain affiliates of PGIM, Inc. (collectively, “PGIM”) with an aggregate amount of $225.0 million of unsecured senior promissory notes (“unsecured senior notes”) available for issuance. The Company also has a separate note purchase agreement for the issuance of $125.0 million senior unsecured promissory notes, of which $25.0 million was issued under the private shelf agreement with PGIM. Under the private shelf agreement with PGIM, the Company has issued $200.0 million unsecured senior notes with $25.0 million remaining available as of September 30, 2023. The following table shows the notes issued under both private shelf agreements.

In November 2022, the Company entered into a $100.0 million term loan agreement (“Term Loan”) with PNC Bank, National Association as administrative agent. The interest rate on the Term Loan was based on SOFR, plus a margin that ranged from 120 to 175 basis points based on the consolidated leverage ratio. The Term Loan had a 364-day term with an option for an additional 364-day term. As of September 30, 2023, the term loan was paid in full. As of December 31, 2022, the term loan had a balance of $100.0 million.
Centerspace has a $198.9 million Fannie Mae Credit Facility Agreement (the “FMCF”). The FMCF is secured by mortgages on 12 apartment communities. The notes are interest-only, with varying maturity dates of 7, 10, and 12 years, and a blended, weighted average interest rate of 2.78%. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the FMCF had a balance of $198.9 million. The FMCF is included within mortgages payable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As of September 30, 2023, Centerspace owned 13 apartment communities that served as collateral for mortgage loans, in addition to the apartment communities secured by the FMCF. All of these mortgage loans were non-recourse to the Company other than for standard carve-out obligations. As of September 30, 2023, the Company believes that there were no material defaults or instances of noncompliance in regards to any of these mortgages payable.

NOTE 6 • DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Centerspace used interest rate derivatives to stabilize interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily used interest rate swap contracts to fix variable interest rate debt.
Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualified as cash flow hedges were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”). Amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified to interest expense in the periods in which interest payments are incurred on variable rate debt. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates an additional $857,000 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.
In February 2022, the Company paid $3.2 million to terminate its $75.0 million interest rate swap and its $70.0 million forward swap. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the Company had no remaining interest rate swaps.
Derivatives not designated as hedges were not speculative and were used to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks but did not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements. Changes in fair value of derivatives not designated in hedging relationships were recorded directly to earnings within interest and other income (loss) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a gain of $582,000, related to the interest rate swap not designated in a hedging relationship, prior to its termination.
The table below presents the effect of the Company’s derivative financial instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as of September 30, 2023 and 2022.

NOTE 7 • FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities are carried at amounts that reasonably approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. For variable rate line of credit debt that re-prices frequently, fair values are based on carrying values.
In determining the fair value of other financial instruments, Centerspace applies FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures.” Fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (Levels 1 and 2) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (Level 3). Fair value estimates may differ from the amounts that may ultimately be realized upon sale or disposition of the assets and liabilities.

NOTE 9 • SEGMENTS
Centerspace operates in a single reportable segment which includes the ownership, management, development, redevelopment, and acquisition of apartment communities. Each of the operating properties is considered a separate operating segment because each property earns revenues, incurs expenses, and has discrete financial information. The chief operating decision-makers evaluate each property’s operating results to make decisions about resources to be allocated and to assess performance and do not group the properties based on geography, size, or type for this purpose. The apartment communities have similar long-term economic characteristics and provide similar products and services to residents. No apartment community comprises more than 10% of consolidated revenues, profits, or assets. Accordingly, the apartment communities are aggregated into a single reportable segment. “All other” includes non-multifamily components of mixed-use properties and apartment communities the Company has disposed or designated as held for sale. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, 13 sold apartment communities were reclassified from the multifamily segment to all other for all periods presented.
The members of the executive management team are the chief operating decision-makers. This team measures the performance of the reportable segment based on net operating income (“NOI”), a non-GAAP measure, which the Company defines as total real estate revenues less property operating expenses, including real estate taxes. Centerspace believes that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for real estate because it provides a measure of operations that excludes gain (loss) on the same of real estate and other assets, depreciation, amortization, financing, property management overhead, casualty losses, and general and administrative expense. NOI does not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss), net income (loss) available for common shareholders, or cash flow from operating activities as a measure of financial performance.
The following tables present NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, along with reconciliations to net income in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Segment assets are also reconciled to total assets as reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 10 • COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation. Centerspace was the named defendant in a lawsuit where the owner of a neighboring property claims a retaining wall at one of its properties is causing water damage to the neighboring property. The claim was for damage to the property and monetary losses. The Company recorded a loss on litigation settlement of $2.9 million due to a trial judgment against Centerspace for property damage and monetary losses. Subsequent to September 30, 2023, the judgement was ordered and the Company paid the settlement of $2.9 million. The Company cannot, with any level of certainty, predict or estimate if there will be additional costs incurred as a result of the lawsuit. Centerspace is involved in various lawsuits arising in the normal course of business and believes that such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Environmental Matters. Under various federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal of, or remediation of, certain hazardous or toxic substances in, on, around, or under the property. While the Company currently has no knowledge of any material violation of environmental laws, ordinances, or regulations at any of the properties, there can be no assurance that areas of contamination will not be identified at any of its properties or that changes in environmental laws, regulations, or cleanup requirements would not result in material costs.
Restrictions on Taxable Dispositions. Twenty-eight properties, consisting of 4,935 apartment homes, are subject to restrictions on taxable dispositions under agreements entered into with certain of the sellers or contributors of the properties and are effective for varying periods. Centerspace does not believe that the agreements materially affect the conduct of its business or its decisions whether to dispose of restricted properties during the restriction period because it generally holds these and other properties for investment purposes rather than for sale. In addition, where the Company deems it to be in the shareholders’ best interests to dispose of such properties, it generally seeks to structure sales of such properties as tax-deferred transactions under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. Otherwise, the Company may be required to provide tax indemnification payments to the parties to these agreements.
Unfunded Commitments. Centerspace has unfunded commitments of $1.2 million in two real estate technology venture funds. Refer to Note 7 - Fair Value Measurements for additional information regarding these investments.
NOTE 11 • SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Share-based awards are provided to officers, non-officer employees, and trustees under the 2015 Incentive Plan approved by shareholders on September 15, 2015, as amended and restated on May 18, 2021 (the “2015 Incentive Plan”) which allows for awards in the form of cash, unrestricted and restricted common shares, stock options, stock appreciation rights, and RSUs up to an aggregate of 775,000 shares over the ten-year period in which the plan is in effect. Under the 2015 Incentive Plan, officers and non-officer employees may earn share awards under a long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”), which is a forward-looking program that measures long-term performance over the stated performance period. These awards are payable to the extent deemed earned in shares. The terms of the long-term incentive awards granted under the revised program may vary from year to year. Through September 30, 2023, awards under the 2015 Incentive Plan consisted of restricted and unrestricted common shares, RSUs, and stock options. We account for forfeitures of restricted and unrestricted common shares, RSUs, and stock options when they occur instead of estimating the forfeitures.
2023 LTIP Awards
Awards granted to employees on January 1, 2023, consisted of an aggregate of 14,256 time-based RSU awards, 20,497 performance RSUs based on total shareholder return (“TSR”), and 45,955 stock options. The time-based awards vest as to one-third of the shares on each of January 1, 2024, January 1, 2025, and January 1, 2026. The stock options vest as to 25% on each of January 1, 2024, January 1, 2025, January 1, 2026, and January 1, 2027. The fair value of stock options was $11.086 per share and was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

| 2023
Exercise price | $ | 58.67 |
Risk-free rate | 3.97 | %
Expected term | 6.25 years
Expected volatility | 28.7 | %
Dividend yield | 4.977 | %

Table of Contents
The performance RSUs are earned based on the Company’s TSR as compared to the FTSE Nareit Equity Index over a forward looking three-year period. The maximum number of performance RSUs eligible to be earned is 40,994 RSUs, which is 200% of the performance RSUs granted. Earned awards (if any) will fully vest as of the last day of the measurement period. These awards have market conditions in addition to service conditions that must be met for the awards to vest. Compensation expense is recognized ratably based on the grant date fair value, as determined using the Monte Carlo valuation model, regardless of whether the market conditions are achieved and the awards ultimately vest. Therefore, previously recorded compensation expense is not adjusted in the event that the market conditions are not achieved. The Company based the expected volatility on a weighted average of the historical volatility of the Company’s daily closing share price and a select peer average volatility, the risk-free interest rate on the interest rates on U.S. treasury bonds with a maturity equal to the remaining performance period of the award, and the expected term on the performance period of the award. The assumptions used to value the TSR performance RSUs were an expected volatility of 37.20%, a risk-free interest rate of 4.22%, and an expected life of 3 years. The share price at the grant date, January 1, 2023, was $58.67 per share.
On March 31, 2023, in connection with her appointment to President and Chief Executive Officer, Anne Olson received a one-time stock award of 5,492 RSUs, which will vest in full on March 31, 2026.
On March 31, 2023, in connection with the change in executive management, Bhairav Patel, CFO, received a one-time stock award of 2,746 RSUs. One-third of the RSUs will vest on March 31, 2025 and the remaining two-thirds will vest on March 31, 2026.
Awards granted to trustees on May 16, 2023 consist of 9,200 time-based RSUs, which vest on May 16, 2024. These awards are classified as equity awards.
Share-Based Compensation Expense
Share-based compensation expense recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements for all outstanding share-based awards was $602,000 and $709,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $2.7 million and $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
On March 31, 2023, the Company accelerated the vesting of all unvested time-based RSUs and stock options in connection with the Separation Agreement with Mr. Decker. This resulted in the acceleration of share-based compensation expense for those awards resulting in an additional $737,000 in expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Any performance-based RSUs were prorated, in accordance with the award agreement, and will vest at the end of performance period based on actual performance. The remaining performance-based RSUs were forfeited. Mr. Decker exercised stock options, prior to their expiration on June 30, 2023, in a cashless exercise with a net 425 shares issued.
NOTE 12 • SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On October 11, 2023, the Company acquired Lake Vista Apartment Homes in Loveland, Colorado, for an aggregate purchase price of $94.5 million, which was financed through the assumption of $52.7 million in mortgage debt and cash.

Executive Summary
We are a real estate investment trust, or REIT, that owns, manages, acquires, redevelops, and develops apartment communities. We primarily focus on investing in markets characterized by stable and growing economies, strong employment, and an attractive quality of life that we believe, in combination, lead to higher demand for apartment homes and retention of our residents. As of September 30, 2023, we owned interests in 71 apartment communities consisting of 12,785 apartment homes. Property owned, as presented in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at historical cost, was $2.3 billion at September 30, 2023, compared to $2.5 billion at December 31, 2022.
Renting apartment homes is our primary source of revenue, and our business objective is to provide great homes for our residents. We strive to maximize resident satisfaction and retention by investing in high-quality assets in desirable locations and creating vibrant apartment communities through resident-centered operations. We believe that delivering superior resident experiences will enhance resident satisfaction while also driving profitability for our business and shareholders. We have paid quarterly distributions continuously since our first distribution in 1971.
Overview of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023
•During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we sold four non-core apartment communities and associated commercial space for an aggregate sales price of $82.5 million and realized a gain on sale of $11.3 million. See Note 8 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in the report for more details.
•For the three months ended September 30, 2023, revenue decreased by $870,000 or 1.3% to $64.6 million, compared to $65.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, due to decreased revenue from dispositions, offset by a 5.7% increase from same-store communities and an increase from non-same-store communities.
•Total expenses remained substantially flat at $58.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.
•Net income was $0.41 per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to net loss of $0.14 per diluted share for the same period of 2022.
•Non-GAAP Core Funds from Operations (“Core FFO”) applicable to common shares and Units for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased by $262,000 to $21.7 million compared to $21.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. See the description of Core FFO on page 31 and the reconciliation of net income (loss) available to common shareholders to FFO and Core FFO on page 33. This increase was primarily due to increased NOI from same-store and non-same-store communities and expense savings in property management and general and administrative expenses, offset by increased interest expense and decreased NOI from dispositions. The drivers of these changes are discussed in more detail in the “Results of Operations” section below.
Results of Operations
GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure, which we define as total real estate revenues less property operating expenses, including real estate taxes and is reconciled to operating income below. We believe that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for real estate because it provides a measure of operations that excludes gain (loss) on the sale of real estate and other investments, depreciation, amortization, financing costs, property management expenses, casualty losses, and general and administrative expenses. NOI does not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss), net income (loss) available for common shareholders, or cash flow from operating activities as a measure of financial performance.
We have provided certain information on a same-store and non-same-store basis. Same-store apartment communities are owned or in service for substantially all of the periods being compared, and, in the case of newly-constructed properties, have achieved a target level of physical occupancy of 90%. On the first day of each calendar year, we determine the composition of our same-store pool for that year as well as adjust the previous year, which allows us to evaluate the performance of existing apartment communities and their contribution to net income. We believe that measuring performance on a same-store basis is useful to investors because it enables evaluation of how a fixed pool of communities are performing year-over-year. We use this measure to assess whether or not we have been successful in increasing NOI, raising average rental revenue, renewing the leases with existing residents, controlling operating costs, and making prudent capital improvements. The discussion below focuses on the main factors affecting real estate revenue and expenses from same-store apartment communities because changes from one year to another in real estate revenue and expenses from non-same-store apartment communities are generally due to the addition of those properties to the real estate portfolio, and accordingly provide less useful information for evaluating ongoing operational performance of the real estate portfolio.

Table of Contents
For the comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, five apartment communities were non-same-store. Sold communities are included in “Dispositions,” while “Other properties” includes non-multifamily properties and the non-multifamily components of mixed-use properties.

| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
Weighted Average Occupancy(1) | 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2023 |  | 2022

(1)Weighted average occupancy is defined as the percentage resulting from dividing actual rental revenue by scheduled rental revenue. Scheduled rental revenue represents the value of all apartment homes, with occupied homes valued at contractual rental rates pursuant to leases and vacant apartment homes valued at estimated market rents. When calculating actual rents for occupied apartment homes and market rents for vacant homes, delinquencies and concessions are not taken into account. Market rates are determined using the currently offered effective rates on new leases at the community and are used as the starting point in determination of the market rates of vacant apartment homes. Centerspace believes that weighted average occupancy is a meaningful measure of occupancy because it considers the value of each vacant unit at its estimated market rate. Weighted average occupancy may not completely reflect short-term trends in physical occupancy, and the calculation of weighted average occupancy may not be comparable to that disclosed by other REITs.

Number of Apartment Homes | September 30, 2023 |  | September 30, 2022

Same-store analysis. Revenue from same-store communities increased 5.7% or $3.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was attributable to 5.5% growth in average monthly revenue per occupied home for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and an increase of 0.2% in occupancy as weighted average occupancy increased from 94.5% in the three months ended September 30, 2022 to 94.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Property operating expenses, including real estate taxes, at same-store communities increased by 6.1% or $1.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year. At same-store communities, controllable expenses (which exclude insurance and real estate taxes) increased by $501,000, primarily due to compensation costs and offset by decreases in repairs and maintenance and utilities. Non-controllable expenses at same-store communities increased by $872,000, due to real estate taxes and higher insurance premiums and claims. Same-store NOI increased by $1.7 million to $34.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $32.3 million in the same period of the prior year.
Revenue from same-store communities increased 8.3% or $13.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was attributable to 7.9% growth in average monthly revenue per occupied home for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and an increase of 0.4% in occupancy as weighted average occupancy increased from 94.5% in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to 94.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Property operating expenses, including real estate taxes, at same-store communities increased by 6.6% or $4.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year. At same-store communities, controllable expenses (which exclude insurance and real estate taxes) increased by $1.9 million, primarily due to compensation costs. Non-controllable expenses at same-store communities increased by $2.4 million, primarily due to real estate taxes and higher insurance premiums and claims. Same-store NOI increased by $8.9 million to $102.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $93.4 million in the same period of the prior year.
Non-same-store analysis. Revenue from non-same-store communities increased by $1.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year. Property operating expenses, including real estate taxes at non-same-store communities increased by $663,000. NOI at non-same-store communities increased by $674,000 to $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $1.4 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase in revenue, property operating expenses, and NOI from non-same-store communities is primarily due to the addition of an apartment community at the end of the third quarter of the prior year.
Revenue from non-same-store communities increased by $4.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year. Property operating expenses, including real estate taxes at non-same-store communities increased by $1.8 million. NOI at non-same-store communities increased by $3.0 million to $6.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $3.7 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase in revenue, property operating expenses, and NOI from non-same-store communities is primarily due to the addition of four apartment communities in the first quarter of the prior year and one apartment community at the end of the third quarter of the prior year.
Other properties and dispositions analysis. Revenue from other properties decreased by $9,000 while revenue from dispositions decreased by $5.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year. Property operating expenses, including real estate taxes at other properties increased by $3,000 while they decreased by $2.6 million for dispositions, compared to the same period in the prior year. NOI at other properties decreased by $12,000 and NOI

Property management expenses. Property management expense, consisting of property management overhead and property management fees paid to third parties decreased by 14.3% to $2.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $2.6 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to decreased costs for technology initiatives and compensation costs combined with fewer properties due to dispositions.
Property management expense, consisting of property management overhead and property management fees paid to third parties decreased by 7.0% to $7.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $7.5 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to decreased contract labor and technology initiatives, offset by increased compensation.
Casualty loss. Casualty loss increased to $937,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $276,000 in the same period of the prior year. The increase is primarily due to extensive damage to a pool at one apartment community. See Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in the report for more details.
Casualty loss decreased to $1.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $1.3 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease is due to larger casualty loss activity in the prior year.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased by 4.1% to $24.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $23.7 million in the same period of the prior year, primarily attributable to an increase in depreciation on same-store and non-same-store apartment communities driven by the addition of an apartment community at the end of the third quarter of the prior year and value add and acquisition capital projects; offset by a decrease in depreciation from sold properties.
Depreciation and amortization decreased by 5.6% to $75.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $79.5 million in the same period of the prior year, primarily attributable to a decrease in amortization of in-place leases from the prior year and a decrease in depreciation from sold properties, offset by an increase in depreciation on same-store and non-same-store apartment communities driven by the addition of four apartment communities in the first quarter of the prior year and one apartment community at the end of the third quarter of the prior year along with value add and acquisition capital projects.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased by 15.2% to $3.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $4.5 million in the same period of the prior year, primarily attributable to technology implementation costs from the prior year that did not occur in the current year and a decrease in compensation costs and legal fees.
General and administrative expenses increased by 10.4% to $15.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $14.2 million in the same period of the prior year, primarily attributable to $3.2 million in executive severance and transition costs related to the CEO departure and $371,000 in legal fees related to the loss on litigation settlement, offset by $1.1 million in abandoned pursuit costs and $784,000 in technology implementation costs from the prior year that did not occur in the current year.
Gain on sale of real estate and other investments. Gain on sale of real estate and other investments increased to a gain of $11.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to no gain in the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the sale of four apartment communities and associated commercial space in the current quarter that did not occur in the prior quarter. Refer to Note 8 in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Gain on sale of real estate and other investments increased to $71.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $27,000 in the same period of the prior year, primarily due to the sale of 13 apartment communities and associated commercial space in the current year that did not occur in the prior year. Refer to Note 8 in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Loss on Litigation Settlement. Loss on litigation settlement was $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 due to a trial judgment against Centerspace for property damage and monetary losses to a neighboring property. Refer to Note 2 in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Interest expense. Interest expense increased by 8.7% to $8.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $7.9 million in the same period of the prior year, primarily due to higher interest rates.
Interest expense increased by 18.9% to $27.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $23.1 million in the same period of the prior year, primarily due to higher interest rates.
Interest and other income. Interest and other income increased to income of $330,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $70,000 in the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily due to interest income on escrow funds and other cash balances and a gain on investments in the current quarter compared to a loss on investments in the same period of the prior year.
Interest and other income decreased to income of $674,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $1.1 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to interest income on mortgages receivable that were outstanding in the prior year and a prior year gain on the mark to market adjustment for an interest rate swap contract, offset by interest income on escrow funds and other cash balances and a gain on investments in the current year.
Net income (loss) available to common shareholders. Net income available to common shareholders increased $8.3 million to a net income of $6.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to a net loss of $2.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022.
Net income (loss) available to common shareholders increased $61.6 million to income of $44.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to a net loss of $16.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Funds from Operations and Core Funds from Operations.
We believe that Funds from Operations (“FFO”), which is a non-GAAP financial measure used as a standard supplemental measure for equity real estate investment trusts, is helpful to investors in understanding operating performance, primarily because its calculation does not assume the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, as implied by the historical cost convention of GAAP and the recording of depreciation and amortization.
We use the definition of FFO adopted by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“Nareit”). Nareit defines FFO as net income or loss calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding:
•depreciation and amortization related to real estate;
•gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets;
•impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity; and
•similar adjustments for partially owned consolidated real estate entities.
The exclusion in Nareit’s definition of FFO of gains and losses from the sale of real estate assets and impairment write-downs helps to identify the operating results of the long-term assets that form the base of investments, and assists management and investors in comparing those operating results between periods.
Due to limitations of the Nareit FFO definition, we have made certain interpretations in applying this definition. We believe that all such interpretations not specifically provided for in the Nareit definition are consistent with this definition. Nareit’s FFO White Paper 2018 Restatement clarified that impairment write-downs of land related to a REIT’s main business are excluded from FFO and a REIT has the option to exclude impairment write-downs of assets that are incidental to the main business.
While FFO is widely used by us as a primary performance metric, not all real estate companies use the same definition of FFO or calculate FFO the same way. Accordingly, FFO presented here is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented by other real estate companies. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measurement of performance, but rather should be considered as an additional, supplemental measure. FFO also does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund all of the our needs, including our ability to service indebtedness or make distributions to shareholders.
Core Funds from Operations (“Core FFO”), a non-GAAP measure, is FFO adjusted for non-routine items or items not considered core to business operations. By further adjusting for items that are not considered part of core business operations,

Table of Contents
we believe that Core FFO provides investors with additional information to compare core operating and financial performance between periods. Core FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or as any other GAAP measurement of performance, but rather should be considered an additional supplemental measure. Core FFO also does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund all cash needs, including the ability to service indebtedness or make distributions to shareholders. Core FFO is a non-GAAP and non-standardized financial measure that may be calculated differently by other REITs and that should not be considered a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP.
Net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended September 30, 2023, increased to a net income of $6.2 million compared to a net loss of $2.1 million for the same period of the prior year. FFO applicable to common shares and Units for the three months ended September 30, 2023, decreased to $20.8 million compared to $21.0 million for the comparable period of the prior year, a decrease of 1.3%. This decrease was primarily due to decreased NOI from dispositions, increased casualty loss and interest expense, offset by increased NOI from same-store communities and non-same-store communities, and decreases in property management and general and administrative expenses.
Net income (loss) available to common shareholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, increased to net income of $44.7 million compared to a net loss of $16.9 million for the same period of the prior year. FFO applicable to common shares and Units for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, decreased to $57.2 million compared to $58.7 million for the comparable period of the prior year, a decrease of 2.5%. This decrease was primarily due to $3.2 million in severance and transition expenses related to the departure of Mark Decker, former CEO, increased interest expense, loss on litigation settlement, decreased NOI from dispositions, less interest and other income including a mark to market gain on an interest rate swap from the prior year, offset by increased NOI from same-store communities and non-same-store communities and $1.1 million in pursuit costs from the prior year that did not occur in the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We strive to maintain a strong balance sheet and preserve financial flexibility, which we believe should enhance our ability to capitalize on appropriate investment opportunities as they may arise. We intend to continue to focus on core fundamentals, which include generating positive cash flows from operations, maintaining appropriate debt levels and leverage ratios, and controlling overhead costs.
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents on hand and cash flows generated from operations. Other sources include availability under the unsecured lines of credit, proceeds from property dispositions, including restricted cash related to net tax deferred proceeds, offerings of preferred and common shares under the shelf registration statement, including offerings of common shares under a 2021 at-the-market offering (“2021 ATM Program”), and long-term unsecured debt and secured mortgages.
Our primary liquidity demands are normally-recurring operating and overhead expenses, debt service and repayments, capital improvements to communities, distributions to the holders of preferred shares, common shares, Series D and Series E preferred units, and Units, value-add redevelopment, common and preferred share buybacks and Unit redemptions, and acquisitions of additional communities.
Although we believe that our financial condition and liquidity are sufficient to meet our reasonably anticipated liquidity demands, factors that could impact our future liquidity include, but are not limited to, volatility in capital and credit markets, interest rate increases, the ability to access capital and credit markets, the minimum REIT dividend requirements, and our ability to complete asset purchases, sales, or developments.
As of September 30, 2023, we had total liquidity of approximately $285.7 million, which included $256.0 million available on the lines of credit and $29.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2022, we had total liquidity of approximately $153.0 million, which included $142.5 million on the lines of credit and $10.5 million of cash and cash equivalents.
Debt
As of September 30, 2023, we had a multibank, revolving line of credit with total commitments and borrowing capacity of $250.0 million, based on the value of unencumbered properties. As of September 30, 2023, there was no outstanding balance on this line of credit, therefore the additional borrowing availability was $250.0 million. At December 31, 2022, the line of credit borrowing capacity was $250.0 million based on the value of unencumbered properties, of which $113.5 million was drawn on the line. This credit facility matures in September 2025 and has an accordion option to increase borrowing capacity up to $400.0 million.
On May 31, 2023, this unsecured credit facility was further amended to replace the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as the benchmark alternative reference rate under the credit facility. Loans under the credit facility outstanding as of the effective date of the Amendment that accrue interest at a rate determined by reference to LIBOR will continue to accrue interest at a rate determined by reference to LIBOR for the interest period applicable to such loans. The line of credit has an interest rate equal to daily SOFR plus a margin of 135 basis points and a spread adjustment of 10 basis points. The interest rates on the line of credit are based, at the Company’s option, on either the lender’s base rate plus a margin, ranging from 25-80 basis points, or daily or term SOFR, plus a margin that ranges from 125-180 basis points based on the consolidated leverage ratio, as defined under the First Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Prior to the amendment, interest rates on the line of credit is based, at the Company’s option, on either the lender’s base rate plus a margin, ranging from 25-80 basis points, or LIBOR, plus a margin that ranges from 125-180 basis points based on the consolidated leverage ratio, as defined under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

We also have a $6.0 million operating line of credit. As of September 30, 2023, there was no outstanding balance on this line of credit. This operating line of credit is designed to enhance treasury management activities and more effectively manage cash balances. This operating line matures on September 30, 2024, with pricing based on SOFR.
Centerspace has a private shelf agreement with PGIM, Inc., an affiliate of Prudential Financial, Inc., and certain affiliates of PGIM, Inc. (collectively, “PGIM”) with an aggregate amount of $225.0 million of unsecured senior promissory notes (“unsecured senior notes”) available for issuance. The Company also has a separate note purchase agreement for the issuance of $125.0 million senior unsecured promissory notes, of which $25.0 million was issued under the private shelf agreement with PGIM. Under the private shelf agreement with PGIM, the Company has issued $200.0 million unsecured senior notes with $25.0 million remaining available as of September 30, 2023. The following table shows the notes issued under both private shelf agreements.

In November 2022, the Company entered into a $100.0 million term loan agreement (“Term Loan”) with PNC Bank, National Association as administrative agent. The interest rate on the Term Loan was based on SOFR, plus a margin that ranged from 120 to 175 basis points based on the consolidated leverage ratio. The Term Loan had a 364-day term with an option for an additional 364-day term. As of September 30, 2023, the term loan was paid in full. As of December 31, 2022, the term loan had a balance of $100.0 million.
We have a $198.9 million Fannie Mae Credit Facility Agreement (the “FMCF”). The FMCF is currently secured by mortgages on 12 apartment communities. The notes are interest-only, have varying maturity dates of 7, 10, and 12 years, and a blended, weighted average interest rate of 2.78%. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the FMCF had a balance of $198.9 million. The FMCF is included within mortgages payable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Mortgage loan indebtedness, excluding the FMCF, was $343.7 million and $299.4 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, on 13 and 15 apartment communities, respectively. All of our mortgage debt is collateralized by apartment communities and is non-recourse at fixed rates of interest, with staggered maturities. This decreases the exposure to changes in interest rates, which reduces the effect of interest rate fluctuations on our results of operations and cash flows. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the weighted average interest rate on mortgage debt was 4.14% and 3.85%, respectively.
On April 26, 2023, Centerspace closed on a $90.0 million secured note payable, which is included in the mortgages payable discussion above, with an interest rate of 5.04% and a term of 12 years.
Equity
We have an equity distribution agreement in connection with the 2021 ATM Program through which we may offer and sell common shares having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $250.0 million, in amounts and at times determined by management. The proceeds from the sale of common shares under the 2021 ATM program may be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of acquisitions, construction or mezzanine loans, community renovations, and the repayment of indebtedness. As of September 30, 2023, common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $126.6 million remained available under the 2021 ATM Program. Further information can be found in Note 4 - Equity and Mezzanine Equity in the Condensed Consolidated notes.
On March 10, 2022, the Board of Trustees approved a new share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”), providing for the repurchase of up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of the Company’s outstanding common shares. Under the Share Repurchase Program, the Company is authorized to repurchase common shares through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions, block trades or otherwise in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans and under Rule 10b-18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The repurchases have no time limit and may be suspended or discontinued completely at any time. The specific timing and amount of repurchases will vary based on available capital resources or other financial and operational performance, market conditions,

securities law limitations, and other factors. The table below provides details on the shares repurchased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $14.2 million remaining authorized for purchase under this program.

Changes in Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash
The following discussion relates to changes in consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash which are presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in Part I, Item 1 above.
In addition to cash flow from operations, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we generated capital from various activities, including:
•Receiving $223.3 million in net proceeds from the sale of 13 apartment communities and associated commercial space; and
•Receiving $90.0 million in proceeds from a new mortgage on Parkhouse.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we used capital for various activities, including:
•Repaying $100.0 million on a variable rate term loan;
•Net repayments of $113.5 million on the line of credit;
•Repaying $46.8 million of mortgage principal;
•Paying distributions on common shares, Series E preferred units, Units, and Series C preferred shares of $44.8 million;
•Repurchasing 124,000 common shares for $6.7 million; and
•Funding capital improvements for apartment communities of approximately $39.4 million.
Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments
Contractual obligations and other commitments were disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Refer to Note 10 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details. There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations and other commitments since that report was filed.
Inflation and Supply Chain
Our apartment leases generally have terms of one year or less, which means that, in an inflationary environment, we would have the ability, subject to market conditions, to increase rents upon the commencement of new leases or renewal of existing leases to manage the impact of inflation on our business. However, the cost to operate and maintain communities could increase at a rate greater than our ability to increase rents, which could adversely affect our results of operations. High inflation could have a negative impact on our residents and their ability to absorb rent increases.
We also continue to monitor pressures surrounding supply chain challenges. Supply chain and inflationary pressures are likely to result in increasing operating expenses, specifically, increases in energy costs, salary related costs, and construction materials for repairs and maintenance or capital projects. A worsening of the current environment could contribute to delays in obtaining construction materials and result in higher than anticipated costs, which could prevent us from obtaining expected returns on value add projects.
We continue to have access to the financial markets; however, a prolonged disruption of the markets or a decline in credit and financing conditions could negatively affect our ability to access capital necessary to fund our operations or refinance maturing

debt in the future. Additionally, rising interest rates could negatively impact our borrowing costs for any variable rate borrowings or refinancing activity.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2023, we had no significant off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.
Critical Accounting Policies
In preparing the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A summary of critical accounting policies is included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2023 under the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for additional information. There have been no other significant changes to the critical accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. The Company’s future revenue, cash flows, and fair values of certain financial instruments are dependent upon prevailing market prices and interest rates.
Centerspace’s exposure to market risk is primarily related to fluctuations in the general level of interest rates on the current and future fixed and variable rate debt obligations. Our operating results are, therefore, affected by changes in interest rates, including LIBOR and SOFR. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2023, under the heading “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for a more complete discussion of the Company’s interest rate sensitivity.
