ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform |  |  | On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or other reference rates expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. This ASU is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has not adopted any of the optional expedients or exceptions as of June 30, 2021, but will continue to evaluate the possible adoption of any such expedients or exceptions during the effective period to determine the impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable Receivables include amounts billed and currently due from tenants pursuant to lease agreements and receivables attributable to straight-line rents associated with those lease agreements. Individual leases where the collection of rents is in dispute are assessed for collectability based on management’s best estimate of collection considering the anticipated outcome of the dispute. Individual leases that are not in dispute are assessed for collectability and upon the determination that the collection of rents over the remaining lease term is not probable, accounts receivable are reduced as an adjustment to rental revenues. Revenue from leases where collection is deemed to be less than probable is recorded on a cash basis until collectability is determined to be probable. Further, management assesses whether operating lease receivables, at a portfolio level, are appropriately valued based upon an analysis of balances outstanding, historical collection levels and current economic trends. An allowance for the uncollectable portion of the portfolio is recorded as an adjustment to rental revenues. Management’s estimate of the collectability of accounts receivable from tenants is based on the best information available to management at the time of evaluation. The duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company’s tenants’ ability to pay rents has caused uncertainty in the Company’s ongoing ability to collect rents when due. Considering the potential impact of these uncertainties, management’s collection assessment also took into consideration the type of retailer, billing disputes, lease negotiation status and executed deferral or abatement agreements, 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 months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, revenues were reduced by $6,704 and $36,912, respectively, associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes the write-off of $2,623 and $1,088, respectively, for straight line rent receivables. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, revenues were reduced by $15,525 and $40,692, respectively, associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes the write-off of $4,302 and $2,557, respectively, for straight line rent receivables.
Carrying Value of Long-Lived Assets and Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates | Carrying Value of Long-Lived Assets and Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates The Company evaluates its real estate assets and investment in unconsolidated affiliates for impairment indicators whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any of its long-lived assets or investment in unconsolidated affiliates may not be recoverable. Furthermore, this evaluation is conducted no less frequently than quarterly, irrespective of changes in circumstances. The prolonged outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in sustained closure of the Company’s properties for a period of time during 2020, as well as the cessation of the operations of certain of its tenants, which has resulted and will likely continue to result in a reduction in the revenues and cash flows of many of its properties due to the adverse financial impacts on its tenants, as well as reductions in other sources of income generated by its properties. In addition to reduced revenues, the Company’s ability to obtain sufficient financing for such properties may be impaired as well as its ability to lease or re-lease properties as a result of market and economic conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s evaluation of impairment of real estate assets considered its estimate of cash flow declines caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, but its other assumptions, including estimated hold period, were generally unchanged given the highly uncertain environment. The worsening of estimated future cash flows due to a change in the Company’s plans, policies, or views of market and economic conditions as it relates to one or more of its properties adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic could result in the recognition of substantial impairment charges on its assets, which could adversely impact its financial results. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company did not record any impairment charges. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded impairment charges of $57,182 related to three malls. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $13,274 related to one mall. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded impairment charges of $146,918 related to three malls. As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s estimates of fair value for each investment are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, but not limited to, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and operating costs. Future declines in the fair value of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated affiliates, including those resulting from the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the real estate assets owned by the unconsolidated affiliates, could result in the recognition of substantial impairment charges on its investments in unconsolidated affiliates to the extent such declines are determined to be other-than-temporary. No impairments of investments in unconsolidated affiliates were recorded in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.
