CBL & Associates Properties, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except per share and per unit data)

Note 1 – Organization and Basis of Presentation

CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. (“CBL”), a Delaware corporation, is a self-managed, self-administered, fully-integrated real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that is engaged in the ownership, development, acquisition, leasing, management and operation of regional shopping malls, outlet centers, lifestyle centers, open-air centers, office buildings and other properties, including single-tenant and multi-tenant parcels. Its properties are located in 24 states, but are primarily in the southeastern and midwestern United States.

CBL conducts substantially all its business through CBL & Associates Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), which is a variable interest entity ("VIE"). The Operating Partnership consolidates the financial statements of all entities in which it has a controlling financial interest or where it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE.

As of March 31, 2022, the Operating Partnership owned interests in the following properties:

|  | Malls (1) |  |  | Outlet Centers (1) |  |  | Lifestyle Centers (1) |  |  | Open-Air Centers (2) |  |  | Other (2) (3) |  |  | Total |
Consolidated Properties |  |  | 41 |  |  |  | 2 |  |  |  | 4 |  |  |  | 21 |  |  |  | 4 |  |  |  | 72 |
Unconsolidated Properties (4) |  |  | 9 |  |  |  | 3 |  |  |  | 1 |  |  |  | 8 |  |  |  | 1 |  |  |  | 22 |
Total |  |  | 50 |  |  |  | 5 |  |  |  | 5 |  |  |  | 29 |  |  |  | 5 |  |  |  | 94 |

(1) | The Company has aggregated malls, outlet centers and lifestyle centers into one reportable segment, the Malls category, because they have similar economic characteristics and they provide similar products and services to similar types of, and in many cases, the same tenants.

(2) | Included in “All Other” for purposes of segment reporting.

(3) | CBL's two consolidated corporate office buildings are included in the Other category.

(4) | The Operating Partnership accounts for these investments using the equity method because one or more of the other partners have substantive participating rights.

CBL is the 100% owner of two qualified REIT subsidiaries, CBL Holdings I, Inc. and CBL Holdings II, Inc. As of March 31, 2022, CBL Holdings I, Inc., the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, owned a 1.0% general partner interest in the Operating Partnership and CBL Holdings II, Inc. owned a 98.9% limited partner interest for a combined interest held by CBL of 99.9%. As of March 31, 2022, third parties owned a 0.1% limited partner interest in the Operating Partnership.

As used herein, the term "Company" includes CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including CBL & Associates Limited Partnership and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The term "Operating Partnership" refers to CBL & Associates Limited Partnership and its subsidiaries.

The Operating Partnership conducts the Company's property management and development activities through its wholly owned subsidiary, CBL & Associates Management, Inc. (the “Management Company"), to comply with certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, they have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for these interim periods have been included. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The results for the interim period ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for the full fiscal year.

Fresh Start Accounting and Reorganizations

Upon the Company’s emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases (defined below), the Company adopted fresh start accounting, which resulted in a new basis of accounting and the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes. As a result of the application of fresh start accounting and the effects of the implementation of the third amended joint chapter 11 plan of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and its affiliated debtors (with technical modifications) (as modified at Docket No. 1521) (the “Plan”), the condensed consolidated financial statements after November 1, 2021 (the “Effective Date”) are not comparable with the condensed consolidated financial statements on or before that date. The lack of comparability is emphasized by the use of a “black line” to separate the Predecessor (defined below) and Successor (defined below) periods in the condensed consolidated financial statements and footnote tables. References to “Successor” or “Successor Company” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the Company after the Effective Date. References to "Predecessor" or "Predecessor Company" refer to the financial position and results of operations of the Company on or before the Effective Date.

Table of Contents

During the Predecessor period, the Company applied Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 852 - Reorganizations (“ASC 852”) in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements. ASC 852 requires the financial statements, for periods subsequent to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, to distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. As a result, the Company classified all expenses, gains and losses that were incurred as a result of the Chapter 11 proceedings since filing as “Reorganization items, net” in the Predecessor Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Liquidity and Loan Defaults

In accordance with the accounting guidance related to the presentation of financial statements, when preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, management evaluates whether there are conditions or events that, when considered in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. In making its assessment, management considered the Company’s current financial condition and liquidity sources.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $1.15 billion of property-level debt and related obligations maturing or callable within the next 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements. Subsequent to March 31, 2022 and through the issuance of the financial statements, the Company obtained certain waivers and/or refinanced and extended the maturity dates for $0.2 billion of mortgage debt obligations.

Accordingly, the Company still had $0.9 billion of property-level debt and related obligations maturing or callable within the next 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements, including $474 million reported within mortgage debt payable and $474 million related to unconsolidated affiliates, a portion of which is guaranteed by the Company as disclosed in Note 11 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Such properties serving as collateral for this property-level debt and related obligations represent approximately 10-12% of projected annual operating cash flows of the Company. The Company currently does not have sufficient liquidity to meet these obligations as they become due, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management intends to refinance and/or extend the maturity dates for such mortgage notes payable. In such instances where a refinancing and/or extension of maturity dates is unsuccessful the Company will repay certain of the mortgage notes based on the availability of liquidity and convey certain properties to the lender to satisfy the debt obligation. As a result, the Company has concluded that management’s plans are probable of being achieved to alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company has prepared its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern. The financial statements do not reflect any adjustments related to the recoverability of assets and satisfaction of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Reclassifications

The Successor Company reclassified mortgage and other notes receivable of $384 into other receivables for the year ended December 31, 2021.

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.

Management’s collection assessment 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-month Successor period ended March 31, 2022 there was a reversal of $737 related to uncollectable revenues. For the three-month Predecessor period ended March 31, 2021, revenues were reduced by $6,486 associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes the write-off of $1,679 for straight line rent receivables.

Note 5 – Fair Value Measurements

The Company has categorized its financial assets and financial liabilities that are recorded at fair value into a hierarchy in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, ("ASC 820") based on whether the inputs to valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. The fair value hierarchy contains three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value as follows:

Level 1 – | Inputs represent quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities as of the measurement date.
Level 2 – | Inputs, other than those included in Level 1, represent observable measurements for similar instruments in active markets, or identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and observable measurements or market data for instruments with substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 – | Inputs represent unobservable measurements, supported by little, if any, market activity, and require considerable assumptions that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability. Market valuations must often be determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, pricing models or similar techniques based on the Company’s assumptions and best judgment.

The asset or liability's fair value within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Under ASC 820, fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability in an orderly transaction at the measurement date and under current market conditions. Valuation techniques used maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and consider assumptions such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and risk of nonperformance.

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The estimated fair value of the 10% senior secured notes due 2029 (the “Secured Notes”) and mortgage and other indebtedness was $1,854,171 and $2,059,094 at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The fair value of mortgage and other indebtedness was calculated using Level 2 inputs by discounting future cash flows for mortgage and other indebtedness using estimated market rates at which similar loans would be made currently.

Table of Contents

The Company elected the fair value option in conjunction with the issuance of the Secured Notes because it believes that the fair value option provides the most accurate depiction of the current value of the Secured Notes. The following table sets forth information regarding the Secured Notes for the three months ended March 31, 2022:

Debt Instrument |  | Carrying amount as of March 31,2022 |  |  | Change in fair value (1) |  |  | Fair value as of March 31, 2022 (2) |
Secured Notes |  | $ | 395,000 |  |  | $ | 593 |  |  | $ | 395,593 |

(1) | For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the change in fair value is included within “Interest Expense” in the Company’s condensed consolidated income statement.

(2) | The fair value was calculated using Level 1 inputs.

The following table sets forth information regarding the Secured Notes for the year ended December 31, 2021:

Debt Instrument |  | Carrying amount as of December 31, 2021 |  |  | Change in fair value (1) |  |  | Fair value as of December 31, 2021 (2) |
Secured Notes |  | $ | 395,000 |  |  | $ | 395 |  |  | $ | 395,395 |

(2) | The fair value was calculated using Level 1 inputs.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company has continued to reinvest the cash from maturing U.S. Treasury securities into new U.S. Treasury securities. The Company designated the U.S. Treasury securities as available-for-sale (“AFS”). The following table sets forth information regarding the Company’s AFS securities that were measured at fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2022:

AFS Security |  | Amortized Cost (1) |  |  | Allowance for credit losses (2) |  |  | Total unrealized gain |  |  | Fair value as of March 31, 2022 |
U.S. Treasury securities |  | $ | 149,936 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 39 |  |  | $ | 149,975 |

(1) | The U.S. Treasury securities have maturities through May 2022. Subsequent to March 31, 2022, the Company used funds from its matured U.S. Treasury securities to purchase additional U.S. Treasury securities. See Note 14 for more information.

(2) | U.S Treasury securities have a long history with no credit losses. Additionally, the Company notes that U.S Treasury securities are explicitly fully guaranteed by a sovereign entity that can print its own currency and that the sovereign entity’s currency is routinely held by central banks and other major financial institutions, is used in international commerce, and commonly viewed as a reserve currency, all of which qualitatively indicate that historical credit loss information should be minimally affected by current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Therefore, the Company did not record expected credit losses for its U.S Treasury securities for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

The following table sets forth information regarding the Company’s AFS securities that were measured at fair value for the year ended December 31, 2021:

AFS Security |  | Amortized Cost |  |  | Allowance for credit losses (1) |  |  | Total unrealized gain |  |  | Fair value as of December 31, 2021 |
U.S. Treasury securities |  | $ | 149,999 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | (3 | ) |  | $ | 149,996 |

(1) | U.S Treasury securities have a long history with no credit losses. Additionally, the Company notes that U.S Treasury securities are explicitly fully guaranteed by a sovereign entity that can print its own currency and that the sovereign entity’s currency is routinely held by central banks and other major financial institutions, is used in international commerce, and commonly viewed as a reserve currency, all of which qualitatively indicate that historical credit loss information should be minimally affected by current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Therefore, the Company did not record expected credit losses for its U.S Treasury securities for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company measures the fair value of certain long-lived assets on a nonrecurring basis, through quarterly impairment testing or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company’s evaluation of the recoverability of long-lived assets involves the comparison of undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by each property over the Company’s expected remaining holding period to the respective carrying amount. The determination of whether the carrying value is recoverable also requires management to make estimates related to probability weighted scenarios impacting undiscounted cash flow models. The Company considers both quantitative and qualitative factors in its impairment analysis of long-lived assets. Significant quantitative factors include historical and forecasted information for each property such as net operating income, occupancy statistics and sales levels. Significant qualitative factors used include market conditions, age and condition of the property and tenant mix. The quantitative and qualitative factors impact the selection of the terminal capitalization rate which is used in both an undiscounted and discounted cash flow model and the discount rate used in a discounted cash flow model. Due to the significant unobservable estimates and assumptions used in the valuation of long-lived assets that experience impairment, the Company classifies such long-lived assets under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Level 3 inputs primarily consist of sales and market data, independent valuations and discounted cash flow models. See below for a description of the estimates and assumptions the Company used in its impairment analysis.

See Note 3 in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for information regarding the fair value adjustments associated with fresh start accounting.

Long-lived Assets Measured at Fair Value in 2022

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Successor Company adjusted the negative equity in Greenbrier Mall to zero upon deconsolidation, which represents the estimated fair value of the Successor Company’s investment in that property. See Note 7 for additional information.

Long-lived Assets Measured at Fair Value in 2021

(1) | In accordance with the Company's quarterly impairment process, the Predecessor Company wrote down the book value of the mall to its estimated fair value of $10,700. The mall had experienced a decline in cash flows due to store closures and rent reductions. Management determined the fair value of Eastland Mall using a discounted cash flow methodology. The discounted cash flow used assumptions including a holding period of nine years, with a sale at the end of the holding period, a capitalization rate of 14.0% and a discount rate of 15.0%.

(2) | In accordance with the Company's quarterly impairment process, the Predecessor Company wrote down the book value of the mall to its estimated fair value of $12,400. The mall had experienced a decline in cash flows due to store closures and rent reductions. Management determined the fair value of Old Hickory Mall using a discounted cash flow methodology. The discounted cash flow used assumptions including a holding period of nine years, with a sale at the end of the holding period, a capitalization rate of 13.0% and a discount rate of 14.0%.

(3) | In accordance with the Company's quarterly impairment process, the Predecessor Company wrote down the book value of the mall to its estimated fair value of $15,400. The mall had experienced a decline in cash flows due to store closures and rent reductions. Management determined the fair value of Stroud Mall using a discounted cash flow methodology. The discounted cash flow used assumptions including a holding period of nine years, with a sale at the end of the holding period, a capitalization rate of 11.75% and a discount rate of 12.5%.

Thus, the results of operations of the properties described below, as well as any related gains or losses, are included in net loss for all periods presented, as applicable.

2022 Dispositions

The Successor Company had no significant dispositions during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

2021 Dispositions

The Predecessor Company realized a loss of $299 related to the sale of an outparcel during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Note 7 – Unconsolidated Affiliates and Noncontrolling Interests

Unconsolidated Affiliates

Although the Company had majority ownership of certain joint ventures during 2022 and 2021, 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;

Variable Interest Entities

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.

13

Table of Contents

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 March 31, 2022, the Company had investments in 12 consolidated VIEs with ownership interests ranging from 50% to 92%.

(2) | In conjunction with fresh start accounting, the Company estimated the fair value of its mortgage notes with the assistance of a third-party valuation advisor. This resulted in recognizing a debt discount on the Effective Date. The debt discount is accreted over the term of the respective debt using the effective interest method. The remaining debt discounts at March 31, 2022 will be accreted over a weighted average period of 3.1 years.

As of March 31, 2022, all the real estate assets and working capital of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries are secured as collateral on either property-level loans, the secured term loan or the Secured Notes.

In February 2022, the loan secured by Fayette Mall was modified to reduce the fixed interest rate to 4.25% and extend the maturity date through May 2023, with three one-year extension options, subject to certain requirements. As part of the modification, two ground leased outparcels were released from the collateral in exchange for the addition of the redeveloped former middle anchor location.

In March 2022, the Company deconsolidated Greenbrier Mall as a result of the Company losing control when the property was placed in receivership. See Note 7 for additional information.

In March 2022, the loan secured by Cross Creek Mall was extended through May 2022. The Company remains in discussions with the lender regarding an extension. As of March 31, 2022, the loan had an outstanding balance of $101,077.

Several of the Company’s properties are owned by special purpose entities, created as a requirement under certain loan agreements that are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The sole business purpose of the special purpose entities is to own and operate these properties. The real estate and other assets owned by these special purpose entities are restricted under the loan agreements in that they are not available to settle other debts of the Company. However, so long as the loans are not under an event of default, as defined in the loan agreement, the cash flows from these properties, after payments of debt service, operating expenses and reserves, are available for distribution to the Company.

Exit Credit Agreement

On November 1, 2021, CBL & Associates HoldCo I, LLC (“HoldCo I”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Exit Credit Agreement”), providing for an $883,700 senior secured term loan that matures

As of March 31, 2022, the Principal Liability Cap had been reduced to $160,661. The Principal Liability Cap is eliminated when the loan balance is reduced below $650,000.

Note 11 – Contingencies

Securities Litigation

The Company and certain of its officers and directors were named as defendants in three putative securities class action lawsuits (collectively, the “Securities Class Action Litigation”), each filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee, on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s securities during a specified period of time. Those cases were consolidated on July 17, 2019, under the caption In re CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. Securities Litigation, 1:19-cv-00149-JRG-CHS, and a consolidated amended complaint was filed on November 5, 2019, seeking to represent a class of purchasers from July 29, 2014 through March 26, 2019.

The operative complaint filed in the Securities Class Action Litigation alleges violations of the securities laws, including, among other things, that the defendants made certain materially false and misleading statements and omissions regarding the Company’s contingent liabilities, business, operations, and prospects during the periods of time specified above. The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages and attorneys’ fees and costs, among other relief, but have not specified the amount of damages sought. On May 3, 2022, the court dismissed the Company from the Securities Class Action Litigation but declined to dismiss the individual defendants. The court also lifted the stay of the proceedings and instructed the parties to confer on a proposed schedule. The outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty.

The Company's insurance carriers remain on notice of the Securities Class Action Litigation.

The Company is currently involved in certain other litigation that arises in the ordinary course of business, most of which is expected to be covered by liability insurance. Management makes assumptions and estimates concerning the likelihood and amount of any potential loss relating to these matters using the latest information available. The Company records a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. If an unfavorable outcome is probable and a reasonable estimate of the loss is a range, the Company accrues the best estimate within the range. If no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the Company accrues the minimum amount within the range. If an unfavorable outcome is probable but the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the nature of the litigation and indicates that an estimate of the loss or range of loss cannot be made. If an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and the estimated loss is material, the Company discloses the nature and estimate of the possible loss of the litigation. Based on current expectations, such matters, both individually and in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the liquidity, results of operations, business or financial condition of the Company.

Environmental Contingencies

The Company evaluates potential loss contingencies related to environmental matters using the same criteria described above related to litigation matters. Based on current information, an unfavorable outcome concerning such environmental matters, both individually and in the aggregate, is considered to be reasonably possible. However, the Company believes its maximum potential exposure to loss would not be material to its results of operations or financial condition. The Company has a master insurance policy that provides coverage through 2022 for certain environmental claims up to $10,000 per occurrence and up to $50,000 in the aggregate, subject to deductibles and certain exclusions. At certain locations, individual policies are in place.

Guarantees

The Operating Partnership may guarantee the debt of a joint venture primarily because it allows the joint venture to obtain funding at a lower cost than could be obtained otherwise. This results in a higher return for the joint venture on its investment, and a higher return on the Operating Partnership's investment in the joint venture. The Operating Partnership may receive a fee from the joint venture for providing the guaranty. Additionally, when the Operating Partnership issues a guaranty, the terms of the joint venture agreement typically provide that the Operating Partnership may receive indemnification from the joint venture partner or have the ability to increase its ownership interest. The guarantees expire upon repayment of the debt, unless noted otherwise.

(2) | These loans have a one-year extension option at the joint venture’s election.

(3) | The guaranty is for a fixed amount of $12,740 throughout the term of the loan, including any extensions. Subsequent to March 31, 2022, the joint venture entered into a new non-recourse loan, which removed the guaranty. See Note 14 for additional information.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Successor Company evaluated each guaranty, listed in the table above, individually by evaluating the debt service ratio, cash flow forecasts and the performance of each loan. The result of the analysis was that each loan is current and performing. The Successor Company did not record a credit loss related to the guarantees listed in the table above for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Predecessor Company evaluated each guaranty, listed in the table above, individually by evaluating the debt service ratio, cash flow forecasts, the performance of each loan and, where applicable, the collateral value in relation to the outstanding amount of the loan. The result of the analysis was that each loan is current, performing and, where applicable, the collateral value was greater than the outstanding amount of the loan. The Predecessor Company did not record a credit loss related to the guarantees listed in the table above for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Note 12 – Share-Based Compensation

2021 Equity Incentive Plan

Following the Effective Date, the board of directors of the Successor Company adopted the CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP”). The EIP authorizes the grant of equity awards to eligible participants based on the new common stock, in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other equity awards. Awards under the EIP may be granted to officers, employees, directors, consultants and independent contractors of the reorganized company. Initially, 3,222,222 shares of new common stock are available under the EIP. The initial new common stock under the EIP is subject to an annual increase of a number of shares equal to 3% of the number of shares of new common stock issued and outstanding at the end of the relevant calendar year (beginning January 2023), or such lesser amount as the board of directors may determine. The EIP will be administered by the compensation committee of the board of directors, which will determine the participants who will be granted awards under the EIP and the terms and conditions of EIP awards.

In accordance with the provisions of ASU 2016-09, which are designed to simplify the accounting for share-based payments transactions, the Successor Company elected to account for forfeitures of share-based payments as they occur rather than estimating them in advance.

Restricted Stock Awards

Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The share-based compensation expense related to the restricted stock awards of the Successor Company was $1,622 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The share-based compensation expense related to the restricted stock awards of the Predecessor Company was $297 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Share-based compensation cost resulting from share-based awards is recorded at the Management Company, which is a taxable entity.

A summary of the status of the Company’s nonvested restricted stock awards as of March 31, 2022, and changes during the period from January 1, 2022 through March 31, 2022, are presented below:

Table of Contents

|  | Shares |  |  | Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Share |
Nonvested at January 1, 2022 |  |  | 784,999 |  |  | $ | 27.57 |
Granted |  |  | 50,000 |  |  | $ | 27.69 |
Nonvested at March 31, 2022 |  |  | 834,999 |  |  | $ | 27.58 |

As of March 31, 2022, there was $21,106 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock awards granted under the EIP, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.5 years.

As of the Effective Date, nonvested restricted stock of the Predecessor Company was deemed vested and the Company’s 2012 stock incentive plan, as amended, pursuant to which such restricted stock had been granted, was terminated.

Performance Stock Awards

In February 2022, the compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company approved the terms of new awards of performance stock units (“PSUs”). The PSUs are earned over a four-year performance period aligned with fiscal years 2022 (includes the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021) through 2025, with one-quarter of the PSUs assigned to each fiscal year within the four-year performance period (each, an “Annual Performance Period” and all four, collectively, the “Full Performance Period”). The number of PSUs earned for each fiscal year within the four-year performance period will be determined based on the achievement of both (i) a quantitative total market return goal (the “TMR Goal”), and (ii) a Company-specific stated goal (the “Stated Goal”), for such fiscal year. The total market return (or TMR) is calculated as the sum of: (i) the average of the multiple of the Company’s average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the average closing share price of common stock for twenty consecutive trading days, and (ii) the value of cash dividends declared during the applicable fiscal year performance period. The TMR Goal will be met if the required level of total market return is achieved at any time during the last 90 trading days of the applicable fiscal year; provided that an additional six month extended measurement period will be applied for the fourth and final fiscal year (the “TMR Year 4 Grace Period”). The Stated Goal for each year will be met if it is achieved at any time during a cumulative performance period beginning November 1, 2021 and ending on December 31 of the applicable calendar year (the “Stated Goal Performance Period”), subject to a grace period of 6-months following the last day of each Stated Goal Performance Period (the “Stated Goal Grace Period”). If the Stated Goal is not achieved for any fiscal year measurement period (including the applicable grace period), then the PSUs allocable to that fiscal year will be forfeited. If the Stated Goal for a fiscal year is achieved but the TMR Goal is not achieved, then the unearned PSUs for the fiscal year will carry over to the succeeding fiscal year and may be earned based on attainment of the goals for the subsequent performance period. If the Stated Goal is achieved for all four fiscal years, then 50% of any outstanding PSUs will be earned. If a participating officer’s employment is terminated prior to the end of any annual performance period due to death or disability (as defined in the PSU award agreements), or due to a termination by the Company without cause (as defined in the PSU award agreements), then the officer will be entitled to receive a pro rata portion of any PSUs earned for that annual performance period (determined by dividing the number of days from January 1 of the applicable annual performance period through the date of such termination by 365), and any remaining PSUs for such annual performance period, and any subsequent annual performance period, will be forfeited.

In February 2022, the Company issued 727,223 PSUs to senior officers. The PSUs had a weighted-average grant date fair value of $24.67.

Compensation cost is recognized on a tranche-by-tranche basis using the accelerated attribution method. The resulting expense, for awards classified as equity, is recorded regardless of whether any PSU awards are earned as long as the required service period is met. Share-based compensation expense related to the Successor Company’s PSUs was $1,121 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Share-based compensation expense related to the Predecessor Company’s PSUs was $94 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The unrecognized compensation expense related to the Successor Company’s PSUs was $16,821 as of March 31, 2022, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.8 years.

As of the Effective Date, all outstanding PSUs of the Predecessor Company were deemed cancelled.

Note 14 – Subsequent Events

In April 2022, HoldCo II delivered a conditional notice of redemption to holders of the Secured Notes, pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the Secured Notes, to redeem $60,000 aggregate principal amount of the Secured Notes on May 26, 2022. The redemption is conditioned upon the receipt by HoldCo II of cash proceeds from a new debt financing. There can be no assurances as to when or if such condition will be satisfied and HoldCo II may waive the condition at its discretion.

In April 2022, the Company and its joint venture partner closed on a new $40,000, ten-year, non-recourse loan secured by The Shoppes at Eagle Point. The new loan bears a fixed interest rate of 5.4%. Proceeds from the new loan were utilized to retire the existing $33,585 partial recourse loan, which was set to mature in October 2022.

In May 2022, the Company used funds from its matured U.S. Treasury securities to purchase $148,965 in U.S. Treasury securities with maturities through November 2022.

In May 2022, the loan secured by Arbor Place was extended for an additional four years, with a new maturity date of May 2026. The interest rate will remain at the current fixed rate of 5.1%.

In May 2022, the Company and its joint venture partner entered into a forbearance agreement with the lender regarding the default triggered by the bankruptcy filing related to the loan secured by The Outlet Shoppes of the Bluegrass.

ITEM 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes that are included in this Form 10-Q. Capitalized terms used, but not defined, in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations have the same meanings as defined in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

Certain statements made in this section or elsewhere in this report may be deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical fact should be considered to be forward-looking statements.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts us and our tenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, and potential changes in consumer behavior, among others. In addition to the risk factors described in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, such known risks and uncertainties include, without limitation:

| • | general industry, economic and business conditions;

| • | interest rate fluctuations;

| • | costs and availability of capital, including debt, and capital requirements;

| • | costs and availability of real estate;

| • | inability to consummate acquisition opportunities and other risks associated with acquisitions;

| • | changes in operating expenses;

| • | changes in applicable laws, rules and regulations;

| • | disposition of real property;

| • | uncertainty and economic impact of pandemics, epidemics or other public health emergencies or fear of such events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and related governmental responses;

| • | cyber-attacks or acts of cyber-terrorism;

| • | the ability to obtain suitable equity and/or debt financing and the continued availability of financing, in the amounts and on the terms necessary to support our future refinancing requirements and business; and

| • | other risks referenced from time to time in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and those factors listed or incorporated by reference into this report.

This list of risks and uncertainties is only a summary and is not intended to be exhaustive. We disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in the factors affecting the forward-looking information.

Fresh Start Accounting

Upon emergence from bankruptcy, we qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 852 – Reorganizations (“ASC 852”), which resulted in our becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes. O ur financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are referred to as those of the “Predecessor.” Our financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are referred to as those of the “Successor.” Our results of operations as reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements for these periods are prepared in accordance with GAAP. See Note 3 in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for additional information.

Executive Overview

We are a self-managed, self-administered, fully integrated REIT that is engaged in the ownership, development, acquisition, leasing, management and operation of regional shopping malls, outlet centers, lifestyle centers, open-air centers and other properties. See Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for information on our property interests as of March 31, 2022. We have elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

The first quarter of 2022 demonstrated continued strong improvement operationally with encouraging growth in occupancy as well as strong traffic and positive in-line sales at our centers. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, sales increased 0.9% as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2021. Percentage rents and short-term rents increased during the period due to the continued positive sales growth. Improvements in the leasing environment, including increasing tenant demand and significantly lower bankruptcy-related store closures, drove healthy occupancy growth.

We had a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $43.2 million, as compared to a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021 of $28.3 million. We recorded a net loss attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $40.7 million, as compared to a net loss attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2021 of $26.8 million. Significant items that affected the comparability between the three-month periods include:

| ▪ | Items increasing net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the prior-year period:

| • | Depreciation and amortization expense was $20.8 million higher;

| • | Interest expense was $66.5 million higher;

| • | Gain on deconsolidation was $18.9 million lower;

| • | General and administrative expense was $5.5 million higher.

| ▪ | Items decreasing net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the prior-year period:

| • | Loss on impairment was $57.2 million lower;

| • | Reorganization items, net, was $21.4 million lower;

| • | Equity in earnings was $11.6 million higher.

Our focus is on continuing to execute our strategy to transform our properties into dominant centers that offer a mix of retail, service, dining, entertainment and other non-retail uses, primarily through the re-tenanting of former anchor locations as well as diversification of in-line tenancy. This operational strategy is also supported by our balance sheet strategy focused on reducing overall debt, extending our debt maturity schedule and lowering our overall cost of borrowings to limit maturity risk, improve net cash flow and enhance enterprise value. While the industry and our Company continue to face challenges, some of which may not be under our control, we believe that the strategies in place to redevelop our properties and diversify our tenant mix will contribute to stabilization of our portfolio and revenues in future years.

Same-center NOI and FFO are non-GAAP measures. For a description of same-center NOI, a reconciliation from net income (loss) to same-center NOI, and an explanation of why we believe this is a useful performance measure, see Non-GAAP Measure - Same-center Net Operating Income in Results of Operations. For a description of FFO, a reconciliation from net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders to FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders, and an explanation of why we believe this is a useful performance measure, see Non-GAAP Measure - Funds from Operations.

COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization classified COVID-19 as a pandemic. In response to COVID-19, we initially implemented strict procedures and guidelines for our employees, tenants and property visitors based on CDC and other health agency recommendations. Our properties continue to update these policies and procedures, following any new mandates and regulations, as required. The safety and health of our customers, employees and tenants remains a top priority.

R esults of Operations

Properties that were in operation for the entire year during 2021 and the three months ended March 31, 2022 are referred to as the “Comparable Properties.” Since January 1, 2021, we have deconsolidated four properties and disposed of six properties:

Deconsolidations

Property |  | Location |  | Date of Deconsolidation
Asheville Mall (1) |  | Asheville, NC |  | January 2021

EastGate Mall (1) |  | Cincinnati, OH |  | December 2021
Greenbrier Mall (1) |  | Chesapeake, VA |  | March 2022

(1) | We deconsolidated the property due to a loss of control when the property was placed into receivership in connection with the foreclosure process.

Rental revenues from the Comparable Properties increased primarily due to a significantly higher estimate of uncollectable revenues in the prior year period due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as prior year rent concessions to tenants in bankruptcy or that were struggling financially due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The increase was partially offset by higher amortization of net above market leases due to the adoption of fresh start accounting upon our emergence from bankruptcy. Percentage rent increased due to higher sales in the current period as sales and traffic have improved as vaccination rates increased and government restrictions were lessened.

Property operating expenses at the Comparable Properties increased primarily due to the actions taken in the prior year period to reduce operating expenses to mitigate the impact of mandated property closures and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including a reduction-in-force and other operating expense initiatives.

The increase in depreciation and amortization expense related to the Comparable Properties primarily relates to a new basis in depreciable assets and intangible in-place lease assets resulting from the adoption of fresh start accounting upon our emergence from bankruptcy.

General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to an increase in compensation expense, including share-based compensation expense, as we got back to normal operations following the early impacts of COVID-19, as well as our emergence from bankruptcy.

In the first quarter of 2021, we recognized $57.2 million of loss on impairment of real estate to write down the book value of three malls. See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.

Other Income and Expenses

Interest expense increased $66.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the prior-year period primarily due to the recognition of debt discount accretion of $62.7 million on property-level debt that is approaching maturity and an increase in interest expense on the secured term loan, the exchangeable notes and the secured notes due to not recognizing interest expense on corporate debt in the prior-year period subsequent to the bankruptcy filing. The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $12.9 million related to the reversal of previously recognized default interest expense. The property-level debt discounts were recognized in conjunction with recording our property-level debt at fair value upon the adoption of fresh start accounting.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded a $36.3 million gain on deconsolidation related to a mall that was deconsolidated due to a loss of control when the mall was placed into receivership in connection with the foreclosure process. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded a $55.1 million gain on deconsolidation related to two malls that were deconsolidated due to a loss of control when each mall was placed into receivership in connection with the foreclosure process.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded $1.6 million of reorganization items, net, which mostly consisted of professional fees and U.S. Trustee fees directly related to the bankruptcy filing. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded $22.9 million of reorganization items, which consisted of professional and legal fees directly related to the bankruptcy filing.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates improved $11.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the prior-year period. The improvement was primarily due to the application of fresh start accounting and recognizing equity in earnings on unconsolidated affiliates that had equity in losses in the prior-year period.

Non-GAAP Measure

Same-center Net Operating Income

NOI is a supplemental non-GAAP measure of the operating performance of our shopping centers and other properties. We define NOI as property operating revenues (rental revenues and other income) less property operating expenses (property operating, real estate taxes and maintenance and repairs).

25

Table of Contents

We compute NOI based on the Operating Partnership's pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated p roperties. We believe that presenting NOI and same-center NOI (described below) based on our Operating Partnership’s pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated p roperties is useful since we conduct substantially all our business through our Operating Partnership and, therefore, it reflects the performance of the p roperties in absolute terms regardless of the ratio of ownership interests of our common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership. Our definition of NOI may be different than that used by other companies, and accordingly, our calculation of NOI may not be comparable to that of other companies.

Since NOI includes only those revenues and expenses related to the operations of our shopping center properties, we believe that same-center NOI provides a measure that reflects trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, sales at our properties and operating costs and the impact of those trends on our results of operations. Our calculation of same-center NOI excludes lease termination income, straight-line rent adjustments, amortization of above and below market lease intangibles and write-offs of landlord inducement assets in order to enhance the comparability of results from one period to another.

We include a property in our same-center pool when we have owned all or a portion of the property since January 1 of the preceding calendar year and it has been in operation for both the entire preceding calendar year and current year-to-date period. New properties are excluded from same-center NOI until they meet these criteria. Properties excluded from the same-center pool that would otherwise meet these criteria are categorized as excluded properties. We exclude properties for which we are working or intend to work with the lender on a restructure of the terms of the loan secured by the property or convey the secured property to the lender (“Excluded Properties”).

Due to the exclusions noted above, same-center NOI should only be used as a supplemental measure of our performance and not as an alternative to GAAP operating income (loss) or net income (loss).

Same-center NOI increased 10.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the prior-year period. The $10.8 million increase for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 primarily consisted of a $12.8 million increase in revenues offset by a $2.0 million increase in operating expenses. Rental revenues increased $12.3 million during the quarter primarily due to a positive variance in uncollectable revenues in the current period as compared to the prior year period, as well as prior year rent concessions to tenants that are in bankruptcy or were struggling financially due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Percentage rent increased due to higher sales in the current period as sales and traffic have improved as vaccination rates increased and government restrictions were lessened.

Operational Review

The shopping center business is, to some extent, seasonal in nature with tenants typically achieving the highest levels of sales during the fourth quarter due to the holiday season, which generally results in higher percentage rents in the fourth quarter. Additionally, malls, lifestyle centers and outlet centers earn a large portion of their rents from short-term tenants during the holiday period. Thus, occupancy levels and revenue production are generally the highest in the fourth quarter of each year. Results of operations realized in any one quarter may not be indicative of the results likely to be experienced over the course of the fiscal year.

We derive the majority of our revenues from the malls, lifestyle centers and outlet centers. The sources of our revenues by property type were as follows:

|  | Successor |  |  |  | Predecessor |
|  | Three Months Ended March 31, |  |  |  | Three Months Ended March 31, |
|  | 2022 |  |  |  | 2021 |
Malls, Lifestyle Centers and Outlet Centers |  |  | 86.7 | % |  |  |  | 89.6 | %
All Other |  |  | 13.3 | % |  |  |  | 10.4 | %

Inline and Adjacent Freestanding Store Sales

Inline and adjacent freestanding store sales include reporting mall, lifestyle center and outlet center tenants of 10,000 square feet or less and exclude license agreements, which are retail leases that are temporary or short-term in nature and generally last more than three months but less than twelve months. The following is a comparison of our same-center sales per square foot for mall, lifestyle center and outlet center tenants of 10,000 square feet or less (Excluded Properties are not included in sales metrics):

Mall, Lifestyle Center and Outlet Center same-center sales per square foot |  | $ | 447 |  |  |  | $ | 397 |  |  | 12.6% |

(1) | Due to the temporary property and store closures that occurred during 2020 related to COVID-19, the majority of our tenants did not report sales for the full reporting period. As a result, we are not able to provide a complete measure of sales per square foot for periods in the year ended December 31, 2020. Sales per square foot for the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2021 is comprised of sales reported for the periods April through December 2019 and January through March 31, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In February 2022, we issued 10,982,795 shares of common stock to holders of the exchangeable notes in satisfaction of principal, accrued interest and the makewhole payment, and all the exchangeable notes were cancelled in accordance with the terms of the indenture.

As of March 31, 2022, we had $335.7 million available in unrestricted cash and U.S. Treasury securities. Our total pro rata share of debt, excluding unamortized deferred financing costs and debt discounts, at March 31, 2022 was $2,982.3 million. We had $59.4 million in restricted cash at March 31, 2022 related to cash held in escrow accounts for insurance, real estate taxes, capital expenditures and tenant allowances as required by the terms of certain mortgage notes payable, as well as amounts related to cash management agreements with lenders of certain property-level mortgage indebtedness, which are designated for debt service and operating expense obligations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we continued to reinvest the cash from maturing U.S. Treasury securities into new U.S. Treasury securities. We designated our U.S. Treasury securities as available-for-sale. As of March 31, 2022, our U.S. Treasury securities have maturities through May 2022. Subsequent to March 31, 2022, we reinvested proceeds from matured U.S. Treasury securities into new U.S. Treasury securities. See Note 14 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

In February 2022, the loan secured by Fayette Mall was modified to reduce the fixed interest rate to 4.25% and extend the maturity date through May 2023, with three one-year extension options, subject to certain requirements. As part of the modification, two ground leased outparcels were released from the collateral in exchange for the addition of the redeveloped former middle anchor location.

In February 2022, we entered into a forbearance agreement with the lender regarding the default triggered by the bankruptcy filing related to the loan secured by The Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta.

In March 2022, the loan secured by Cross Creek Mall was extended through May 2022. We remain in discussions with the lender regarding a long-term extension. As of March 31, 2022, the loan had an outstanding balance of $101.1 million.

In March 2022, we deconsolidated Greenbrier Mall as a result of losing control when the property was placed in receivership. As of March 31, 2022, the loan secured by Greenbrier Mall had an outstanding balance of $61.6 million.

In March 2022, we entered into a new $30.0 million non-recourse mortgage note payable, secured by York Town Center, that provides for a three-year term and a fixed interest rate of 4.75%. The monthly debt service is interest only for the first eighteen months.

In March 2022, we entered into a forbearance agreement with the respective lenders regarding the default triggered by the bankruptcy filing related to the loans secured by Coastal Grand and Fremaux Town Center.

Subsequent to March 31, 2022, we delivered a conditional notice of redemption to holders of the secured notes, pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the secured notes, to redeem $60.0 million aggregate principal amount of the secured notes on May 26, 2022. The redemption is conditioned upon our receipt of cash proceeds from a new debt financing. There can be no assurances as to when or if such condition will be satisfied and we may waive the condition at our discretion.

Subsequent to March 31, 2022, we closed on a new $40.0 million, ten-year, non-recourse loan secured by The Shoppes at Eagle Point. See Note 14 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Table of Contents

Subsequent to March 31, 2022, the loan secured by Arbor Place was extended for an additional four years, with a new maturity date of May 2026. The interest rate will remain at the current fixed rate of 5.1%. See Note 14 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent to March 31, 2022, we entered into a forbearance agreement with the lender regarding the default triggered by the bankruptcy filing related to the loan secured by The Outlet Shoppes of the Bluegrass. See Note 14 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Our total share of consolidated, unconsolidated and other outstanding debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, maturing during 2022, assuming all extension options are elected, is $444.1 million, and our total share of consolidated, unconsolidated and other outstanding debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, that matured prior to 2022, which remains outstanding at March 31, 2022, is $271.8 million. We are in discussions with the existing lenders to modify and extend or otherwise refinance the loans.

As of March 31, 2022, we had $1.15 billion of property-level debt and related obligations maturing or callable within the next 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements. Subsequent to March 31, 2022 and through the issuance of the financial statements, we obtained certain waivers and/or refinanced and extended the maturity dates for $0.2 billion of mortgage debt obligations.

Accordingly, we still had $0.9 billion of property-level debt and related obligations maturing or callable within the next 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements, including $474 million reported within mortgage debt payable and $474 million related to unconsolidated affiliates, a portion of which is guaranteed by us as disclosed in Note 11 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Such properties serving as collateral for this property-level debt and related obligations represent approximately 10-12% of our projected annual operating cash flows. We currently do not have sufficient liquidity to meet these obligations as they become due, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Management intends to refinance and/or extend the maturity dates for such mortgage notes payable. In such instances where a refinancing and/or extension of maturity dates is unsuccessful we will repay certain of the mortgage notes based on the availability of liquidity and convey certain properties to the lender to satisfy the debt obligation. As a result, we have concluded that management’s plans are probable of being achieved to alleviate substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We have prepared our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern. The financial statements do not reflect any adjustments related to the recoverability of assets and satisfaction of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Cash Flows - Operating, Investing and Financing Activities

There was $245.2 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of March 31, 2022, an increase of $9.0 million from December 31, 2021. Of this amount, $185.7 million was unrestricted cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2022. Also, at March 31, 2022, we had $150.0 million in U.S. Treasuries with maturities through May 2022.

Our net cash flows are summarized as follows (in thousands):

Net cash flows |  | $ | 8,962 |  |  |  | $ | 46,445 |  |  | $ | (37,483 | )

Cash Provided By Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities decreased primarily because we did not pay interest in the prior-year period on the secured credit facility and senior unsecured notes as a result of the bankruptcy filing, but we did incur interest expense on our new corporate debt during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Cash Used In Investing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities decreased primarily due to an increase in distributions from unconsolidated affiliates as compared to the prior-year period. The decrease was partially

offset by lower proceeds from sales of real estate assets during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the prior-year period.

Cash Used In Financing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in financing activities increased primarily due to principal payments on the secured term loan and mortgage notes payable.

Debt

The following tables summarize debt based on our pro rata ownership share, including our pro rata share of unconsolidated affiliates and excluding noncontrolling investors’ share of consolidated properties. Prior to consideration of unamortized deferred financing costs or debt discounts, of our $2,982.3 million outstanding debt at March 31, 2022, $1,674.7 million constituted non-recourse debt obligations and $1,307.6 million constituted recourse debt obligations.

The weighted-average remaining term of our total share of consolidated, unconsolidated and other debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, was 3.1 years and 3.3 years at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The weighted-average remaining term of our pro rata share of consolidated, unconsolidated and other fixed-rate debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, was 2.8 years and 3.2 years at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our pro rata share of consolidated and unconsolidated variable-rate debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, represented 33.8% and 32.8%, respectively, of our total pro rata share of debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs.

See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for information concerning activity related to unconsolidated affiliates.

Equity

In February 2022, we issued 10,982,795 shares of common stock to holders of the exchangeable notes in satisfaction of principal, accrued interest and the makewhole payment, and all the exchangeable notes were cancelled in accordance with the terms of the indenture.

The decision to declare and pay dividends on any outstanding shares of our common stock, as well as the timing, amount and composition of any such future dividends, will be at the sole discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our earnings, taxable income, FFO, liquidity, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual prohibitions or other limitations under our then-current indebtedness, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, Delaware law and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant. Any dividends payable will be determined by our board of directors based upon the circumstances at the time of declaration. Our actual results of operations will be affected by a number of factors, including the revenues received from our properties, our operating expenses, interest expense, unanticipated capital expenditures and the ability of our anchors and tenants at our properties to meet their obligations for payment of rents and tenant reimbursements.

As a publicly traded company, we previously accessed capital through both the public equity and debt markets. We had a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) that expired in July 2021. Until we regain Form S-3 eligibility, we will be required to use a registration statement on Form S-11 to register securities with the SEC. On May 6, 2022, we filed a resale registration statement on Form S-11 covering the offer and sale, from time to time, of up to 12,380,260 shares of common stock by the selling shareholders named therein, pursuant to the requirements of the registration rights agreement. We will not receive any proceeds from resales of share of common stock by the selling shareholders pursuant to this registration statement.

Annual capital expenditures budgets are prepared for each of our properties that are intended to provide for all necessary recurring and non-recurring capital expenditures. We believe that property operating cash flows, which include reimbursements from tenants for certain expenses, and readily available cash on hand will provide the necessary funding for these expenditures.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Unconsolidated Affiliates

We have ownership interests in 27 unconsolidated affiliates as of March 31, 2022 that are described in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and are reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as investments in unconsolidated affiliates.

The following are circumstances when we may consider entering into a joint venture with a third party:

| • | Third parties may approach us with opportunities in which they have obtained land and performed some pre-development activities, but they may not have sufficient access to the capital resources or the development and leasing expertise to bring the project to fruition. We enter into such arrangements when we determine such a project is viable and we can achieve a satisfactory return on our investment. We typically earn development fees from the joint venture and provide management and leasing services to the property for a fee once the property is placed in operation.

| • | We determine that we may have the opportunity to capitalize on the value we have created in a property by selling an interest in the property to a third party. This provides us with an additional source of capital that can be used to develop or acquire additional real estate assets that we believe will provide greater potential for growth. When we retain an interest in an asset rather than selling a 100% interest, it is typically because this allows us to continue to manage the property, which provides us the ability to earn fees for management, leasing, development and financing services provided to the joint venture.

| • | We also pursue opportunities to contribute available land at our properties into joint venture partnerships for development of primarily non-retail uses such as hotels, office, self-storage and multifamily. We typically partner with developers who have expertise in the non-retail property types.

Guarantees

We may guarantee the debt of a joint venture primarily because it allows the joint venture to obtain funding at a lower cost than could be obtained otherwise. This results in a higher return for the joint venture on its investment, and a higher return on our investment in the joint venture. We may receive a fee from the joint venture for providing the guaranty. Additionally, when we issue a guaranty, the terms of the joint venture agreement typically provide that we may receive indemnification from the joint venture or have the ability to increase our ownership interest.

See Note 11 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for information related to our guarantees of unconsolidated affiliates' debt as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

C ritical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the financial statements and disclosures. Some of these estimates and assumptions require application of difficult, subjective, and/or complex judgment about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 contains a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section. There have been no material changes to these policies and estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Non-GAAP Measure

Funds from Operations

FFO is a widely used non-GAAP measure of the operating performance of real estate companies that supplements net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP. NAREIT defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains or losses on sales of depreciable operating properties and impairment losses of depreciable properties, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and noncontrolling interests are calculated on the same basis. We define FFO as defined above by NAREIT. Our method of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

We believe that FFO provides an additional indicator of the operating performance of our properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assumes the value of real estate assets declines predictably over time. Since values of real estate assets have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, we believe that FFO, which excludes historical cost depreciation and amortization, enhances investors’ understanding of our operating performance. The use of FFO as an indicator of financial performance is influenced not only by the operations of our properties and interest rates, but also by our capital structure.

We present both FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders and FFO allocable to common shareholders, as we believe that both are useful performance measures. We believe FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders is a useful performance measure since we conduct substantially all our business through our Operating Partnership and, therefore, it reflects the performance of the properties in absolute terms regardless of the ratio of ownership interests of our common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in our Operating Partnership. We believe FFO allocable to common shareholders is a useful performance measure because it is the performance measure that is most directly comparable to net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders.

In our reconciliation of net loss attributable to common shareholders to FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders that is presented below, we make an adjustment to add back noncontrolling interest in loss of our Operating Partnership in order to arrive at FFO of the Operating Partnership common unitholders. We then apply a percentage to FFO of the Operating Partnership common unitholders to arrive at FFO allocable to common shareholders. The percentage is computed by taking the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period and dividing it by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares and the weighted-average number of Operating Partnership units held by noncontrolling interests during the period.

FFO does not represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) for purposes of evaluating our operating performance or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.

We believe that it is important to identify the impact of certain significant items on our FFO measures for a reader to have a complete understanding of our results of operations. Therefore, we have also presented adjusted FFO measures excluding these significant items from the applicable periods. Please refer to the reconciliation of net loss attributable to common shareholders to FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders below for a description of these adjustments.

Table of Contents

FFO of the Operating Partnership de creased to $3 5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $90.2 million for the prior-year period. Excluding the adjustments noted below, FFO of the Operating Partnership, as adjusted, de creased to $57.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 from $68.7 million for the same period in 20 2 1. The de crease in FFO, as adjusted, w as primarily driven by the recognition of interest expense in the current period on the secured term loan, the e xchangeable n otes and the s ecured n otes. We did not recogniz e interest expense in the prior-year period on the senior unsecured notes and the secured credit facility due to the bankruptcy filing.

ITEM 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to various market risk exposures, including interest rate risk. The following discussion regarding our risk management activities includes forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. Estimates of future performance and economic conditions are reflected assuming certain changes in interest rates. Caution should be used in evaluating our overall market risk from the information presented below, as actual results may differ.

Interest Rate Risk

Based on our proportionate share of consolidated and unconsolidated variable-rate debt at March 31, 2022, a 0.5% increase or decrease in interest rates on variable-rate debt would increase or decrease annual cash flows by approximately $5.0 million.

Based on our proportionate share of total consolidated and unconsolidated debt at March 31, 2022, a 0.5% increase in interest rates would decrease the fair value of debt by approximately $19.2 million, while a 0.5% decrease in interest rates would increase the fair value of debt by approximately $20.7 million.

ITEM 4: Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and with the participation of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. The Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and to ensure that information we are required to disclose is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of the material weakness described below.

Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, management of the Company determined that there was a control deficiency that constituted a material weakness, as described below.

As a result of turnover, the Company did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel commensurate with their accounting and financial reporting requirements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and SEC regulations.

The control deficiency described above created a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis and therefore we concluded that the deficiency represents a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

Notwithstanding the identified material weakness, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information included in this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our balance sheets, statements of operations, comprehensive loss and cash flows as of and for the periods presented.

Table of Contents

Remediation Plan

During 2021, and the first quarter of 2022, the Company took steps to remediate the material weakness described above, which included hiring additional personnel. The Company is in the process of integrating these personnel in order for its internal controls over financial reporting to operate effectively. The Company continues to explore hiring additional personnel. Also, in the short term, the Company utilized the assistance of external parties to assist with the added reporting requirements brought on by its bankruptcy filing and its subsequent emergence on November 1, 2021.

Until our remediation plan is implemented and operating effectively, management will continue to devote time and attention to these efforts. Management has concluded that, because of the material weakness, our internal control over financial reporting and our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2022.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except for the ongoing implementation of management’s remediation plan for the material weakness discussed above, there were no changes that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
