Equity Method Investments And Joint Ventures [Abstract] |
Unconsolidated Affiliates and Noncontrolling Interests | Note 7 – Unconsolidated Affiliates and Noncontrolling Interests Unconsolidated Affiliates Although the Company had majority ownership of certain joint ventures during 2020 and 2019, it evaluated the investments and concluded that the other partners or owners in these joint ventures had substantive participating rights, such as approvals of:
| • | the pro forma for the development and construction of the project and any material deviations or modifications thereto;
| • | the site plan and any material deviations or modifications thereto;
| • | the conceptual design of the project and the initial plans and specifications for the project and any material deviations or modifications thereto;
| • | any acquisition/construction loans or any permanent financings/refinancings;
| • | the annual operating budgets and any material deviations or modifications thereto;
| • | the initial leasing plan and leasing parameters and any material deviations or modifications thereto; and
| • | any material acquisitions or dispositions with respect to the project.
As a result of the joint control over these joint ventures, the Company accounts for these investments using the equity method of accounting. At June 30, 2020, the Company had investments in 29 entities, which are accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

Accounts Receivable See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for the Company’s accounting policy related to accounts receivable, which is also applicable to the unconsolidated affiliates. The duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and the unconsolidated affiliates’ tenants’ ability to resume operations once governmental and legislative restrictions are lifted has caused uncertainty in the unconsolidated affiliates’ ongoing ability to collect rents when due. Considering the potential impact of these uncertainties, the unconsolidated affiliates’ collection assessment also took into consideration the type of retailer and current discussions with the tenants, as well as recent rent collection experience and tenant bankruptcies based on the best information available to management at the time of evaluation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the unconsolidated affiliates recorded $11,799 and $13,535, respectively, associated with potentially uncollectible revenues, which includes $250 and $435, respectively, for straight-line rent receivables. At June 30, 2020, the unconsolidated affiliates’ Receivables include $1,944 related to receivables that have been deferred and are to be repaid over periods generally starting in late 2020 and extending for some portion of 2021. The unconsolidated affiliates granted abatements of $1,191 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. As of early August 2020, the Company estimates that the unconsolidated affiliates will defer $3,200 of the rents that were billed for April, May and June 2020 based on agreements that have been executed or are in active negotiation. The unconsolidated affiliates continue to assess rent relief requests from their tenants but are unable to predict the resolution or impact of these discussions. Variable Interest Entities In accordance with the guidance in ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis , and ASU 2016-17, Interests Held Through Related Parties That Are under Common Control, the Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries are deemed to have the characteristics of a VIE primarily because the limited partners of these entities do not collectively possess substantive kick-out or participating rights. The Company consolidates the Operating Partnership, which is a VIE, for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company, through the Operating Partnership, consolidates all VIEs for which it is the primary beneficiary. Generally, a VIE is a legal entity in which the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or the equity investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. A limited partnership is considered a VIE when the majority of the limited partners unrelated to the general partner possess neither the right to remove the general partner without cause, nor certain rights to participate in the decisions that most significantly affect the financial results of the partnership. In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company considers qualitative and quantitative factors, including, but not limited to: which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party controls such activities; the amount and characteristics of the Company's investment; the obligation or likelihood for the Company or other investors to provide financial support; and the similarity with and significance to the Company's business activities and the business activities of the other investors. Consolidated VIEs As of June 30, 2020, the Company had investments in 12 consolidated VIEs with ownership interests ranging from 50% to 92%.
