Notes t o Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. | Nature of Business and Financial Statement Presentation

Nature of Business

SITE Centers Corp. (formerly known as DDR Corp.) and its related consolidated real estate subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “SITE Centers”) and unconsolidated joint ventures are primarily engaged in the business of acquiring, owning, developing, redeveloping, expanding, leasing, financing and managing shopping centers. Unless otherwise provided, references herein to the Company or SITE Centers include SITE Centers Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and consolidated joint ventures. The Company’s tenant base primarily includes national and regional retail chains and local retailers. Consequently, the Company’s credit risk is concentrated in the retail industry.

Retail Value Inc.

On July 1, 2018, the Company completed the spin-off of Retail Value Inc. (“RVI”). At the time of the spin-off, RVI owned 48 shopping centers, comprised of 36 continental U.S. assets and all 12 of SITE Centers’ shopping centers in Puerto Rico, representing $2.7 billion of gross book asset value and $1.27 billion of mortgage debt.

In connection with the spin-off, on July 1, 2018, the Company and RVI entered into a separation and distribution agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company agreed to transfer the properties and certain related assets, liabilities and obligations to RVI and to distribute 100% of the outstanding common shares of RVI to holders of record of SITE Centers’ common shares as of the close of business on June 26, 2018, the record date. On the spin-off date, holders of SITE Centers’ common shares received one common share of RVI for every ten shares of SITE Centers’ common stock held on the record date. In connection with the spin-off, the Company retained 1,000 shares of RVI’s series A preferred stock (the “RVI Preferred Shares”) having an aggregate preference equal to $190 million, which amount may increase by up to an additional $10 million depending on the amount of aggregate gross proceeds generated by RVI asset sales.

The RVI Preferred Shares are classified as Investment in and Advances to Affiliate on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The RVI Preferred Shares have a liquidation and dividend preference over the common stock, but do not have any substantive voting rights, with limited exceptions, or conversion rights and do not have a stated coupon. The RVI Preferred Shares are carried at cost, subject to adjustments in certain circumstances, and will be periodically evaluated for impairment. Dividend payments received up to $190 million by SITE Centers will be recorded as a reduction of the carrying value.

On July 1, 2018, the Company and RVI also entered into an external management agreement, which, together with various property management agreements, governs the fees, terms and conditions pursuant to which SITE Centers will manage RVI and its properties. Pursuant to these management agreements, the Company provides RVI with day-to-day management, subject to supervision and certain discretionary limits and authorities granted by the RVI Board of Directors. RVI does not have any employees. In general, either the Company or RVI may terminate the management agreements on December 31, 2019 or at the end of any six-month renewal period thereafter. The Company and RVI also entered into a tax matters agreement, which governs the rights and responsibilities of the parties following the spin-off with respect to various tax matters and provides for the allocation of tax-related assets, liabilities and obligations.

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

These financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, the interim financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

8

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company and all entities in which the Company has a controlling interest or has been determined to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in real estate joint ventures in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have financial or operating control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company’s share of the earnings (or loss) of these joint ventures is included in consolidated net income (loss).

The Company has two unconsolidated joint ventures included in the Company’s joint venture investments that are considered VIEs for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary. The Company’s maximum exposure to losses associated with these VIEs is limited to its aggregate investment, which was $205.9 million and $284.1 million as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified in order to conform with the current period’s presentation. The Company reclassified $3.0 million and $9.8 million of costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations related to property management and services of the Company’s operating properties from General and Administrative to Operating and Maintenance.

Effect of Reverse Stock Split on Presentation

On May 18, 2018, in anticipation of the spin-off of RVI, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its outstanding common shares at a ratio of one-for-two. All share and per share data included in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements gives retroactive effect to the reverse stock split for all periods presented.

New Accounting Standards Adopted

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The objective of ASU No. 2014-09 is to establish a single, comprehensive, five-step model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers that will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of this standard is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 applies to all contracts with customers except those that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The new guidance was effective for public companies for annual reporting periods (including interim periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has adopted the new accounting guidance for revenue from contracts with customers (“Topic 606”) on January 1, 2018

9

using the modified retrospective approach and therefore, the comparative information has not been adjusted. The guidance has been applied to contracts that are not completed as of the date of initial application and the impact of the adoption was not material (Note 2).

Real Estate Sales

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income-Gains and Losses from Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets (“Topic 610”) for gains and losses from the sale and/or transfer of real estate property. Topic 610 eliminates guidance specific to real estate sales in ASC 360-20. As such, sales and partial sales of real estate assets will now be subject to the same derecognition model as all other nonfinancial assets. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. The effective date of this guidance coincides with revenue recognition guidance discussed in Note 2. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Topic 610 using the modified retrospective approach for contracts that are not completed as of the date of initial application. The Company has determined that the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Standards to Be Adopted

Accounting for Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The amendments in this update govern a number of areas including, but not limited to, accounting for leases, replacing the existing guidance in ASC No. 840, Leases. Under this standard, among other changes in practice, a lessee’s rights and obligations under most leases, including existing and new arrangements, would be recognized as assets and liabilities, respectively, on the balance sheet. Other significant provisions of this standard include (i) defining the “lease term” to include the non-cancelable period together with periods for which there is a significant economic incentive for the lessee to extend or not terminate the lease, (ii) defining the initial lease liability to be recorded on the balance sheet to contemplate only those variable lease payments that depend on an index or that are in substance “fixed,” (iii) a dual approach for determining whether lease expense is recognized on a straight-line or accelerated basis, depending on whether the lessee is expected to consume more than an insignificant portion of the leased asset’s economic benefits and (iv) a requirement to bifurcate certain lease and non-lease components. The lease standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (including interim periods within those fiscal years), with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt the standard using the modified retrospective approach for financial statements issued after January 1, 2019.

The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. The Company has currently identified several areas within its accounting policies it believes could be impacted by the new standard, including where the Company is a lessor under its tenant lease agreements and a lessee under its ground leases. In July 2018, the FASB approved targeted improvements to the Leases standard that provides lessors with a practical expedient by class of underlying asset, to avoid separating the non-lease components from the lease component of certain contracts. Such practical expedient is limited to circumstances in which (i) the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the non-lease component and the related lease component and (ii) the stand alone lease component would be classified as an operating lease if accounted for separately. The Company will elect the practical expedient which would allow the Company the ability to account for the combined component based on its predominate characteristics if the underlying asset meets the two criteria defined above.

In addition, the Company has ground lease agreements in which the Company is the lessee for land beneath all or a portion of the buildings at three shopping centers. Currently, the Company accounts for these arrangements as operating leases. Under the new standard, the Company will record its rights and obligations under these leases as a right of use asset and lease liability on its consolidated balance sheets. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the inputs required to calculate the amount that will be recorded on its balance sheet for each ground lease. Lastly, this standard impacts the lessor’s ability to capitalize initial direct costs related to the leasing of vacant space. However, the Company does not believe this change regarding capitalization will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued an amendment on measurement of credit losses on financial assets held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The guidance requires the use of a new current expected credit loss ("CECL") model in estimating allowances for doubtful accounts with respect to accounts receivable, straight-line rents receivable and notes receivable. The CECL model requires that the Company estimate its lifetime expected credit loss with respect to these receivables and record allowances that, when deducted from the balance of the receivables, represent the estimated net amounts expected to be collected. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. In July 2018, the FASB proposed an amendment to ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses to clarify that operating lease receivables

10

recorded by lessors are explicitly excluded from the scope of the ASU. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this guidance.

2. | Revenue Recognition

The Company adopted the accounting guidance for revenue from contracts with customers (“Topic 606”) on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach and therefore, the comparative information has not been adjusted. The guidance has been applied to contracts that are not completed as of the date of initial application. Most significantly for the real estate industry, leasing transactions are not within the scope of the new standard. A majority of the Company’s tenant-related revenue is recognized pursuant to lease agreements and are governed by the leasing guidance discussed in Note 1.

Historically, the majority of the Company’s lease commission revenue was recognized 50% upon lease execution and 50% upon tenant rent commencement. Upon adoption of Topic 606, lease commission revenue is generally recognized in its entirety upon lease execution. The impact of adopting Topic 606 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements with respect to the change in revenue recognition as related to lease commissions revenue at January 1, 2018 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was not material.

The following is disclosure of the Company’s revenue recognition policies:

Rental Revenue

Minimum rents from tenants in shopping centers generally range from one month to 30 years and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the noncancelable term of the lease, which include the effects of applicable rent steps and abatements. Percentage and overage rents are recognized after a tenant’s reported sales have exceeded the applicable sales breakpoint set forth in the applicable lease.

Recoveries from tenants

Revenues associated with expense reimbursements from tenants for common area maintenance, taxes, insurance and other property operating expenses, based upon the tenant’s lease provisions, are recognized in the period the related expenses are incurred.

Lease Termination Fees

Lease termination fees are recognized upon the effective termination of a tenant’s lease when the Company has no further obligations under the lease.

Ancillary income and other property income

Ancillary and other property-related income, primarily composed of leasing vacant space to temporary tenants, kiosk income, parking and theatre income, is recognized in the period earned.

Business Interruption Income

The Company will record revenue for covered business interruption in the period it determines that it is probable it will be compensated and the applicable contingencies with the insurance company are resolved. This income recognition criteria will likely result in business interruption insurance recoveries being recorded in a period subsequent to the period the Company experiences lost revenue from the damaged properties.

Disposition of Real Estate

Sales of nonfinancial assets, such as real estate, are to be recognized when control of the asset transfers to the buyer, which will occur when the buyer has the ability to direct the use of, or obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the asset. This generally occurs when the transaction closes and consideration is exchanged for control of the asset.

Revenues from Contracts with Customers

The Company’s revenues from contracts with customers generally relate to asset and property management fees, leasing commission, and development fees. These revenues are derived from the Company’s management agreements with RVI and unconsolidated joint ventures and, in the case of unconsolidated joint ventures, are recognized to the extent attributable to the unaffiliated ownership in the unconsolidated joint venture to which it relates. Termination rights under these contracts vary by contract, but generally include termination for cause by either party or due to sale of the property.

11

Asset and Property Management Fees

Asset and property management services include property maintenance, tenant coordination, accounting and financial services. Asset and Property management services represent a series of distinct daily services. Accordingly, the Company satisfies the performance obligation as services are rendered over time.

The Company is compensated for property management services through a monthly management fee earned based on a specified percentage of the monthly rental receipts generated from the property under management. The Company is compensated for asset management services through a fee that is billed to the customer monthly and recognized as revenue monthly as the services are rendered, based on a percentage of aggregate asset value or capital contributions for assets under management at the end of the quarter. The RVI management contracts have fixed fees for a six-month period prior to reset based upon the properties under management.

Property Leasing

The Company provides strategic advice and execution to third parties in connection with the leasing of retail space. The Company is compensated for services in the form of a commission. The commission is paid upon the occurrence of certain contractual events which may be contingent. For example, a portion of the commission may be paid upon execution of the lease by the tenant, with the remaining paid upon occurrence of another future contingent event (e.g. payment of first month’s rent or tenant move-in). The Company typically satisfies its performance obligation at a point in time when control is transferred; generally, at the time of the first contractual event where there is a present right to payment. The Company looks to history, experience with a customer, and deal specific considerations, to support its judgment that the second contingency will be met. Therefore, the Company typically accelerates the recognition of revenue associated with the second contingent event (if any) to the point in time when control of its service is transferred.

Development Services

Development services consist of construction management oversight services such as hiring general contractors, reviewing plans and specifications, performing inspections, reviewing documentation and accounting services. These services represent a series of distinct services and are recognized over time as services are rendered. The Company is compensated monthly for services based on percentage of aggregate amount spent on the construction during the month.

Disposition Fees

The Company receives disposition fees equal to 1% of the gross sales price of each RVI asset sold. The Company is compensated at the time of the closing of the transaction.

Contract Assets

Contract assets represent assets for revenue that has been recognized in advance of billing the customer and for which the right to bill is contingent upon something other than the passage of time. This is common for contingent portions of commissions. The portion of payments retained by the customer until the second contingent event is not considered a significant financing component because the right to payment is expected to become unconditional within one year or less. Contract assets are transferred to receivables when the right to payment becomes unconditional.

The aggregate amount of receivables from contracts with customers was $1.6 million and $1.9 million as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

Contract assets are included in Other Assets, net on the consolidated balance sheets. The significant changes in the contract asset balances during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 are as follows (in thousands):

Balance as of January 1, 2018 | $ | 1,371 |
Contract assets recognized |  | 1,732 |
Contract assets billed |  | (1,738 | )
Balance as of September 30, 2018 | $ | 1,365 |

All revenue from contracts with customers meets the exemption criteria for variable consideration directly allocable to wholly unsatisfied performance obligations or unsatisfied promise within a series and, therefore, the Company does not disclose the value of transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations. There is no fixed consideration included in the transaction price for any of these revenues.

The Company’s joint venture agreements generally include provisions whereby each partner has the right to trigger a purchase or sale of its interest in the joint venture or to initiate a purchase or sale of the properties after a certain number of years or if either party is in default of the joint venture agreements. The Company is not obligated to purchase the interests of its outside joint venture partners under these provisions.

BRE DDR Retail Holdings Joint Ventures

The Company’s two unconsolidated investments with The Blackstone Group L.P. (“Blackstone”), BRE DDR Retail Holdings III (“BRE DDR III”) and BRE DDR Retail Holdings IV (“BRE DDR IV” and, together with BRE DDR III, the “BRE DDR Joint Ventures”), have substantially similar terms and are summarized as follows (in millions, except properties owned):

|  |  | Common Equity |  |  | Preferred Investment (Principal) |  |  | Properties Owned |
| Formation |  | Initial |  |  | Initial |  |  | September 30, 2018 |  |  | Net of Reserve |  |  | Inception |  |  | September 30, 2018 |

An affiliate of Blackstone is the managing member and effectively owns 95% of the common equity of each of the two BRE DDR Joint Ventures, and consolidated affiliates of SITE Centers effectively own the remaining 5%. The Company provides leasing and property management services to all of the joint venture properties. The Company cannot be removed as the property and leasing manager until the preferred equity, as discussed below, is redeemed in full (except for certain specified events).

The Company reassessed the aggregate valuation allowance at September 30, 2018, with respect to its preferred investments in BRE DDR III and BRE DDR IV. Based upon actual timing and values of recent property sales, as well as current market assumptions, the Company adjusted the aggregate valuation allowance by an increase of $2.2 million and $4.5 million for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2018, respectively, resulting in a net valuation allowance of $65.5 million. The valuation allowance is recorded as Reserve of Preferred Equity Interests on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company will continue to monitor the investments and related valuation allowance which could be increased or decreased in future periods, as appropriate.

The Company’s preferred interests are entitled to certain preferential cumulative distributions payable out of operating cash flows and certain capital proceeds pursuant to the terms and conditions of the preferred investments. The preferred distributions are recognized as Interest Income within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and are classified as a note receivable in Investments in and Advances to Joint Ventures on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The preferred investments have an annual distribution rate of 8.5% including any deferred and unpaid preferred distributions. Blackstone has the right to defer up to 2.0% of the 8.5% preferred fixed distributions as a payment in kind distribution or “PIK.” Blackstone has made this PIK deferral election since the formation of both joint ventures. The cash portion of the preferred fixed distributions is generally payable first out of operating cash flows and is current for both BRE DDR Joint Ventures. The Company has no expectation that the cash portion of the preferred fixed distribution will become impaired. As a result of the valuation allowances recorded, the Company no longer recognizes as interest income the 2.0% PIK. Although Blackstone has the right to change its payment election, the Company expects future preferred distributions to continue to include the PIK component. The recognition of the PIK interest income will be reevaluated based upon any future adjustments to the aggregate valuation allowance, as appropriate.

Disposition of Shopping Centers

From January 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018, the DDRM Properties joint venture sold 15 assets for $250.7 million, the BRE DDR III joint venture sold 17 assets for $374.9 million and the BRE DDR IV joint venture sold one asset for $40.0 million. The Company’s pro rata share of the aggregate gain from these sales was $12.6 million.

4. | Investment In and Advances to Affiliate

In connection with the spin-off of RVI, RVI issued 1,000 shares of the RVI Preferred Shares to the Company, which are noncumulative and have no mandatory dividend rate. The RVI Preferred Shares rank, with respect to dividend rights, and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of RVI, senior in preference and priority to RVI’s common shares and any other class or series of RVI’s capital stock. Subject to the requirement that RVI distribute to its common shareholders the minimum amount required to be distributed with respect to any taxable year in order for RVI to maintain its status as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and to avoid U.S. federal income taxes, the RVI Preferred Shares are entitled to a dividend preference for all dividends declared on RVI’s capital stock at any time up to a “preference amount” equal to $190 million in the aggregate, which amount may increase by up to an additional $10 million if the aggregate gross proceeds of RVI’s asset sales subsequent to July 1, 2018 exceeds $2.0 billion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the RVI Preferred Shares are only entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by RVI’s Board of Directors and RVI’s ability to pay dividends is subject to any restrictions set forth in the terms of its indebtedness. Upon payment to SITE Centers of aggregate dividends on the RVI Preferred Shares equaling the maximum preference amount of $200 million, RVI is required to redeem the RVI Preferred Shares for $1.00 per share.

The RVI Preferred Shares are subject to mandatory redemption in certain other circumstances. The RVI Preferred Shares are included in Investment in and Advances to Affiliate in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

In addition to the preferred investment, the Company has a receivable from RVI of $36.5 million at September 30, 2018, primarily consisting of restricted cash, insurance premiums and insurance proceeds owed by RVI pursuant to the terms of the separation and distribution agreement. RVI made a payment of $3.1 million on this receivable in the third quarter of 2018.

6. | Revolving Credit Facilities

The following table discloses certain information regarding the Company’s Revolving Credit Facilities (as defined below) (in millions):

|  | Carrying Amount at September 30, 2018 |  |  | Weighted-Average Interest Rate (A) at September 30, 2018 |  |  | Maturity Date
Unsecured Credit Facility |  | $ | 105.0 |  |  | 3.5% |  |  | September 2021
PNC Facility |  | — |  |  | N/A |  |  | September 2021

| (A) | Interest rate on variable-rate debt was calculated using the base rate and spreads in effect at September 30, 2018.

The Company maintains an unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of financial institutions, arranged by J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Citizens Bank, N.A., RBC Capital Markets and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Unsecured Credit Facility”). The Unsecured Credit Facility provides for borrowings up to $950 million if certain financial covenants are maintained, two six-month options to extend the maturity to September 2022 upon the Company’s request (subject to satisfaction of certain conditions) and an accordion feature for expansion of availability up to $1.45 billion, provided that new or existing lenders agree to the existing terms of the facility and increase their commitment level. The Unsecured Credit Facility includes a competitive bid option on periodic interest rates for up to 50% of the facility. The Unsecured Credit Facility also provides for an annual facility fee, which was 25 basis points on the entire facility at September 30, 2018.

The Company also maintains an unsecured revolving credit facility with PNC Bank, National Association (the “PNC Facility” and, together with the Unsecured Credit Facility, the “Revolving Credit Facilities”). The PNC Facility terms are substantially consistent with those contained in the Unsecured Credit Facility. In July 2018, the Company permanently reduced the borrowing

17

capacity under the PNC Facility from $50 million to $20 million. In addition, the Company provided an unconditional guaranty to PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”) with respect to any obligations of RVI outstanding from time to time under a $30 million revolving credit agreement entered into by RVI with PNC. RVI has agreed to reimburse the Company for any amounts paid to PNC pursuant to the guaranty (credit facility guaranty fee) plus interest at a contracted rate.

The Company’s borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facilities bear interest at variable rates at the Company’s election, based on either LIBOR, plus a specified spread (1.2% at September 30, 2018) or the Alternative Base Rate, plus a specified spread (0.20% at September 30, 2018), as defined in the respective facility. The specified spreads vary depending on the Company’s long-term senior unsecured debt rating from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and S&P Global Ratings and their successors. The Company is required to comply with certain covenants under the Revolving Credit Facilities relating to total outstanding indebtedness, secured indebtedness, value of unencumbered real estate assets and fixed charge coverage. The Company was in compliance with these financial covenants at September 30, 2018.

7. | Indebtedness

Secured Financing

In contemplation of the spin-off transaction, which occurred on July 1, 2018 (Note 1), certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of RVI, entered into a loan agreement in February 2018 which provided for a secured loan facility with an initial aggregate principal amount of $1.35 billion. This loan was assumed by RVI in connection with the consummation of the spin-off of RVI.

Debt Repayments

In the first quarter of 2018, in connection with the $1.35 billion RVI mortgage loan and asset sales, the Company repaid $900.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes with maturity dates ranging from July 2018 to February 2025 through a tender offer, and subsequent optional redemption, $452.5 million of mortgage debt and $200.0 million of an unsecured term loan. In connection with the redemption of the senior unsecured notes, the Company paid make-whole amounts totaling $28.4 million. These make-whole amounts are included in Other Income (Expense), net in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Scheduled Principal Repayments

The scheduled principal payments of the Revolving Credit Facilities (Note 6) and unsecured and secured indebtedness, excluding extension options, as of September 30, 2018, are as follows (in thousands):

Year |  | Amount |
2018 |  | $ | 1,223 |
2019 |  |  | 97,241 |

Net unamortized debt issuance costs |  |  | (12,749 | )
Total indebtedness |  | $ | 2,385,002 |

8. | Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures of financial instruments:

Notes Receivable and Advances to Affiliates

The fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis in which the Company uses unobservable inputs such as market interest rates determined by the loan to value and market capitalization rates related to the underlying collateral at which management believes similar loans would be made and classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of these notes was approximately $224.9 million and $299.0 million at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, as compared to the carrying amounts of $224.2 million and $297.9 million, respectively.

18

Debt

The fair market value of senior notes is determined using the trading price of the Company’s public debt. The fair market value for all other debt is estimated using a discounted cash flow technique that incorporates future contractual interest and principal payments and a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration, optionality and risk profile, including the Company’s non-performance risk and loan to value. The Company’s senior notes and all other debt are classified as Level 2 and Level 3, respectively, in the fair value hierarchy.

Considerable judgment is necessary to develop estimated fair values of financial instruments. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the financial instruments.

Debt instruments with carrying values that are different than estimated fair values are summarized as follows (in thousands):

| September 30, 2018 |  |  | December 31, 2017 |
| Carrying Amount |  |  | Fair Value |  |  | Carrying Amount |  |  | Fair Value |
Senior Notes | $ | 1,896,458 |  |  | $ | 1,890,538 |  |  | $ | 2,810,100 |  |  | $ | 2,884,272 |
Revolving Credit Facilities and term loans |  | 303,540 |  |  |  | 306,206 |  |  |  | 398,130 |  |  |  | 400,119 |
Mortgage Indebtedness |  | 185,004 |  |  |  | 185,128 |  |  |  | 641,082 |  |  |  | 653,185 |
| $ | 2,385,002 |  |  | $ | 2,381,872 |  |  | $ | 3,849,312 |  |  | $ | 3,937,576 |

Interest Rate Cap

In March 2018, the Company entered into a $1.35 billion interest rate cap, in connection with entering into the RVI mortgage (Note 7). For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded income of $0.2 million. On July 1, 2018, this interest rate cap was assumed by RVI.

9. | Commitments and Contingencies

Hurricane Loss

In 2017, Hurricane Maria made landfall in Puerto Rico. At June 30, 2018, RVI owned 12 assets in Puerto Rico, aggregating 4.4 million square feet of Company-owned gross leasable area (“GLA”). These assets are included in the spin-off of RVI (Note 1). One of the 12 assets (Plaza Palma Real, consisting of approximately 0.4 million of Company-owned GLA) was severely damaged and was not operational following the storm, except for two anchor tenants and a few other tenants representing a minimal amount of Company-owned GLA. The other 11 assets sustained varying degrees of damage, consisting primarily of roof and HVAC system damage and water intrusion.

As of June 30, 2018, the estimated net book value of the property damage written-off for damage to the Company’s Puerto Rico assets owned as of that date was $78.8 million. In addition, at June 30, 2018, the property insurance receivable was $49.2 million related to the net book value of the property damage write-off as well as other expenses net of property damage insurance payments received. The carrying value of the Puerto Rico real estate assets and a majority of the property insurance receivable was transferred to RVI in connection with the consummation of the spin-off on July 1, 2018. The remaining insurance receivable of $1.2 million related to expenses incurred that were subsequently paid by the insurance company.

The Company’s business interruption insurance covers lost revenue through the period of property restoration and for up to 365 days following completion of restoration. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, rental revenues of $6.6 million were not recorded because of lost tenant revenue attributable to Hurricane Maria that has been partially defrayed by insurance proceeds. The Company will record revenue for covered business interruption in the period it determines that it is probable it will be compensated and the applicable contingencies with the insurance company are resolved. This income recognition criteria will likely result in business interruption insurance proceeds being recorded in periods subsequent to the period that the Company experienced lost revenue from the damaged properties. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company received insurance proceeds of approximately $1.8 million and $6.9 million, respectively, related to business interruption claims, which is recorded on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as Business Interruption Income.

Following the completion of the spin-off of RVI, other than with respect to revenue losses and repair costs previously incurred by the Company, it is expected that insurance proceeds from Hurricane Maria will largely be allocated to RVI pursuant to the terms of the agreement governing the separation of the Company and RVI.

Total impairment charges | $ | 22.1 |  |  | $ | (5.1 | ) |  | $ | 72.9 |  |  | $ | 121.0 |

(A) | The impairments recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily were triggered by indicative bids received and changes in market assumptions due to the disposition process. The impairments recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, primarily were triggered by changes in asset hold-period assumptions and/or expected future cash flows.

(B) | Charge related to the spin-off of the RVI assets as a result of these assets being classified as held for sale on July 1, 2018, immediately prior to the spin-off.

(C) | As a result of an aggregate valuation allowance on its preferred equity interests in the BRE DDR Joint Ventures (Note 3).

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company is required to assess the fair value of certain impaired consolidated and unconsolidated joint venture investments. The valuation of impaired real estate assets and investments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each asset, as well as the income capitalization approach considering prevailing market capitalization rates, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sales negotiations and bona fide purchase offers received from third parties and/or consideration of the amount that currently would be required to replace the asset, as adjusted for obsolescence. In general, the Company considers multiple valuation techniques when measuring fair value of an investment. However, in certain circumstances, a single valuation technique may be appropriate.

For operational real estate assets, the significant valuation assumptions included the capitalization rate used in the income capitalization valuation as well as the projected property net operating income. For projects under development or not at stabilization, the significant valuation assumptions included the discount rate, the timing and the estimated costs for the construction completion and project stabilization, projected net operating income and the exit capitalization rate. For the valuation of the preferred equity interests, the significant assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis included the discount rate, projected net operating income, the timing of the expected redemption and the exit capitalization rates. For investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, the Company also considered the valuation of any underlying joint venture debt. These valuations were calculated based on market conditions and assumptions made by management at the time the valuation adjustments and impairments were recorded, which may differ materially from actual results if market conditions or the underlying assumptions change.

The following table provides a reconciliation of net loss from continuing operations and the number of common shares used in the computations of “basic” earnings per share (“EPS”), which utilizes the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding without regard to dilutive potential common shares, and “diluted” EPS, which includes all such shares (in thousands, except per share amounts). Further, all per share amounts and average shares outstanding have been restated to reflect the May 2018 reverse stock split described in Note 1.

Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis o f Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) provides readers with a perspective from management on the financial condition, results of operations and liquidity of SITE Centers Corp. and its related consolidated real estate subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “SITE Centers”) and other factors that may affect the Company’s future results. The Company believes it is important to read the MD&A in conjunction with its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as well as other publicly available information.

Executive Summary

The Company is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) in the business of acquiring, owning, developing, redeveloping, expanding, leasing, financing and managing shopping centers. As of September 30, 2018, the Company’s portfolio consisted of 182 shopping centers (including 104 shopping centers owned through joint ventures). At September 30, 2018, the Company owned approximately 61.8 million total square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”) through all its properties (wholly-owned and joint venture) and managed approximately 18.1 million total square feet of GLA for RVI. At September 30, 2018, the aggregate occupancy of the Company’s operating shopping center-portfolio was 90.4%, and the average annualized base rent per occupied square foot was $17.47, on a pro rata basis.

The following provides an overview of the Company’s key financial metrics (see Non-GAAP Financial Measures described later in this section) (in thousands, except per share amounts):

| Three Months |  |  | Nine Months |

Loss per share – Diluted | $ | (0.09 | ) |  | $ | (0.04 | ) |  | $ | (0.50 | ) |  | $ | (0.24 | )

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, net loss attributable to common shareholders increased compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the impact of the spin-off of Retail Value Inc. (“RVI”) and asset sales.

Retail Value Inc. Spin-Off

On July 1, 2018, the Company completed the spin-off of RVI, which consisted of a portfolio of 48 assets that included 36 continental U.S. assets and all 12 of the Company’s Puerto Rico assets. By owning, operating and redeveloping only continental U.S. assets with higher risk-adjusted growth profiles, the Company is expected to provide a more compelling and competitive investment opportunity to public real estate investors. The RVI assets had a combined gross book value of approximately $2.7 billion and mortgage debt of $1.27 billion as of June 30, 2018. The Company retained a preferred stock investment in RVI of $190 million and continues to manage the RVI assets pursuant to management agreements.

In February 2018, in preparation for the spin-off transaction, the Company completed $1.35 billion of mortgage financing secured by RVI assets and used proceeds from the financing and certain asset sales to repay $452.5 million of mortgage debt, $900 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured debt and $200 million of an unsecured term loan. The mortgage financing was assumed by RVI in connection with the completion of the spin-off.

Company Activity

After the completion of the spin-off, growth opportunities within the Company’s core property operations include rental increases and continued lease-up of the portfolio. Additional growth opportunities include a renewed focus on redevelopment of strong assets remaining in the SITE Centers portfolio and opportunistic investments. Other opportunities include expansion and reformatting to accommodate high-credit-quality tenants and downsizing or reconfiguring junior anchors to enhance the merchandising mix of shopping centers, both of which the Company believes will generate higher blended rental rates and operating cash flows. In addition to its deleveraging efforts, management intends to use proceeds from the sale of lower growth assets to fund redevelopment activity and opportunistic investing.

Dispositions

The Company sold 43 shopping centers and land parcels for $1,048.5 million (including 33 shopping centers held in joint ventures), or $453.9 million at the Company’s share for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

24

The following is a summary of the Company’s operational activity during the quarter ended September 30, 2018, after the spin-off of RVI:

| • | The Company leased approximately 1.4 million square feet in the three months ended September 30, 2018, including 63 new leases and 164 renewals;

| • | The Company continued to execute both new leases and renewals at positive rental spreads, which contributed to the increase in the average annualized base rent per square foot. For the comparable leases executed in the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company generated positive leasing spreads on a pro rata basis of 20.6% for new leases and 8.2% for renewals. The new lease spread of 20.6% is higher than the full-year 2017 spread of 11.1% on a pro rata basis and is in line with historical trending. The Company’s leasing spread calculation only includes deals that were executed within one year of the date the prior tenant vacated;

| • | The Company’s total portfolio average annualized base rent per square foot increased to $17.47 at September 30, 2018, on a pro rata basis;

| • | The aggregate occupancy of the Company’s operating shopping center portfolio was 90.4% at September 30, 2018, on a pro rata basis. The occupancy rate was impacted in 2018 by the termination of multiple Toys “R” Us leases as part of the retailer’s bankruptcy proceedings and

| • | For new leases executed during the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company expended a weighted-average cost of $6.61 per rentable square foot for tenant improvements and lease commissions over the lease term. The Company generally does not expend a significant amount of capital on lease renewals.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated shopping center properties owned as of January 1, 2017, but excluding properties under development or redevelopment and those sold by the Company or included in the spin-off of RVI, are referred to herein as the “Comparable Portfolio Properties.”

The following tables present the statistics for the Company’s portfolio affecting base and percentage rental revenues summarized by the following portfolios: combined shopping center portfolio, wholly-owned shopping center portfolio and joint venture shopping center portfolio.

| Combined Shopping Center Portfolio September 30, |  |  | Wholly-Owned Shopping Centers September 30, |  |  | Joint Venture Shopping Centers September 30, |

Aggregate occupancy rate |  | 90.8 | % |  |  | 91.5 | % |  |  | 90.3 | % |  |  | 91.1 | % |  |  | 91.2 | % |  |  | 92.1 | %
Average annualized base rent per occupied square foot | $ | 16.23 |  |  | $ | 15.53 |  |  | $ | 17.83 |  |  | $ | 16.30 |  |  | $ | 14.63 |  |  | $ | 14.42 |

On a pro rata basis, the Company’s occupancy was 90.4% and the average annualized base rent per occupied square foot was $17.47. At September 30, 2018 and 2017, the wholly-owned Comparable Portfolio Properties’ aggregate occupancy rate was 91.7% and 91.1%, respectively, and the average annualized base rent per occupied square foot was $17.33 and $17.11, respectively. The decrease in occupancy rates primarily was due to a combination of anchor store tenant lease expirations and bankruptcies throughout 2018 and 2017 and, to a lesser extent, disposition activity that occurred during the year.

(B) | The decrease primarily was driven by the RVI spin-off and disposition activity. Recoveries from tenants for the Comparable Portfolio Properties were approximately 91.9% and 93.7% of reimbursable operating expenses and real estate taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The overall decreased percentage of recoveries from tenants primarily was attributable to the impact of the major tenant bankruptcies and related occupancy loss discussed above.

(C) | The decrease primarily is a result of a decrease in lease termination fees offset by an increase in fee revenue. Lease termination fees decreased $6.9 million during 2018 due to the recording in 2017 of an $8.2 million lease termination fee related to the receipt of a building triggered by an anchor tenant’s termination of a ground lease at a shopping center. Revenues from fees from joint ventures and RVI increased $5.4 million, primarily due to higher fees earned from RVI of $8.9 million primarily offset by lower fee income received from joint ventures as a result of the sale of joint venture assets in 2018 and 2017. The components of Fee and Other Income are presented in Note 2, “Revenue Recognition” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein. Changes in the number of assets under management, including the number of assets owned by RVI, or the fee structures applicable to such arrangements will impact the amount of revenue recorded in future periods. Such changes could occur because the Company’s property management agreements contain termination provisions and RVI and the Company’s joint venture partners could dispose of shopping centers under SITE Centers’ management.

(D) | Represents payments received in the first nine months of 2018 from the Company’s insurance company related to its claims for business interruption losses incurred at its Puerto Rico properties associated with Hurricane Maria.

(E) | The Company did not record $6.6 million of revenues related to the Puerto Rico shopping centers in the first six months of 2018 because of lost tenant revenue attributable to Hurricane Maria that has been partially defrayed by the receipt of business interruption insurance proceeds as noted above. See further discussion in Note 9, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein.

(A) | The changes were due to the following (in millions):

|  | Operating and Maintenance |  |  | Real Estate Taxes |  |  | Depreciation and Amortization |
Comparable Portfolio Properties |  | $ | 1.2 |  |  | $ | 2.7 |  |  | $ | (6.3 | )

|  | $ | (18.4 | ) |  | $ | (15.0 | ) |  | $ | (69.9 | )

Depreciation expense for Comparable Portfolio Properties was lower in 2018, primarily as a result of assets that were fully amortized in 2017.

(B) | The Company recorded impairment charges in the first nine months of 2018 related to 10 operating shopping centers marketed for sale, eight of which were included in the RVI spin-off. In addition, the spin-off of the RVI assets caused an additional impairment charge of $14.1 million in the third quarter of 2018 as a result of these assets being classified as held for sale on July 1, 2018, immediately prior to the spin-off.

Changes in (i) an asset’s expected future undiscounted cash flows due to changes in market conditions, (ii) various courses of action that may occur or (iii) holding periods each could result in the recognition of additional impairment charges. Impairment charges are presented in Note 11, “Impairment Charges and Reserves,” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein.

(C) | The Hurricane Property Loss is more fully described in Note 9, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein.

(D) | General and administrative expenses were approximately 5.0% and 5.5% of total revenues, for 2018 and 2017, respectively, including total revenues of unconsolidated joint ventures and managed properties for the comparable periods. In 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded separation charges aggregating $4.6 million and $16.6 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, general and administrative expenses of $45.4 million and $60.5 million, respectively, less the separation charges of $4.6 million and $16.6 million, respectively, were approximately 4.5% and 4.0%, respectively, of total revenues described above.

27

The Company continues to expense certain internal leasing salaries, legal salaries and related expenses associated with leasing and re-leasing of existing space. However, the Company expects that upon adoption of the new leasing standar d in 2019, certain general and administrative expenses that are currently capitalized may be required to be expensed. See Note1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein.

| $ | (199,819 | ) |  | $ | (189,964 | ) |  | $ | (9,855 | )

(A) | The change in the amount of interest income recognized primarily is due to the change in the composition of the preferred equity investments in the unconsolidated joint ventures with The Blackstone Group L.P. (“Blackstone”) (see Sources and Uses of Capital). At September 30, 2018, the Company had a gross preferred investment of $264.8 million plus $4.8 million of accrued interest, with an annual interest rate of 8.5% due from its two joint ventures with Blackstone. This balance excludes a $65.5 million valuation allowance. The Company does not recognize as interest income the 2.0% non-cash, or Paid In Kind (“PIK”), component of the 8.5% fixed distribution. The Company’s recognition of the cash interest payments from the preferred securities remains unchanged and earns interest at 6.5% per annum. In the first nine months of 2018, the Company received $68.1 million in preferred equity repayments. A portion of the proceeds generated from assets sold by the Blackstone joint ventures are expected to be used to repay a portion of the preferred equity. Any repayment of this preferred interest would impact the amount of interest income recorded by the Company in future periods.

The weighted-average loan receivable outstanding and weighted-average interest rate, including loans to affiliates, are as follows:

|  | Nine Months |
|  | Ended September 30, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Weighted-average loan receivable outstanding (in millions) |  | $ | 311.4 |  |  | $ | 418.5 |
Weighted-average interest rate |  |  | 6.8 | % |  |  | 7.2 | %

(B) | The weighted-average debt outstanding and related weighted-average interest rate are as follows:

|  | Nine Months |
|  | Ended September 30, |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Weighted-average debt outstanding (in billions) |  | $ | 3.3 |  |  | $ | 4.4 |
Weighted-average interest rate |  |  | 4.5 | % |  |  | 4.4 | %

The reduction in the weighted-average debt outstanding from the comparable prior-year period is a result of the RVI spin-off and the Company’s overall strategy to reduce leverage. The weighted-average interest rate (based on contractual rates and excluding fair market value of adjustments and debt issuance costs) was 4.2% and 4.0% at September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively.

28

Interest costs capitalized in conjunction with development and redevelopment projects and unconsolidated development and redevelopment joint venture interests were $0.3 million and $0.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, compared to $0.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2017.

(C) | Other income (expense) was composed of the following (in millions):

| Nine Months |
| Ended September 30, |
| 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Transaction costs - RVI spin-off | $ | (37.0 | ) |  | $ | — |

Transaction and other (expense) income, net |  | (3.9 | ) |  |  | 1.1 |
| $ | (99.3 | ) |  | $ | (65.3 | )

In 2018, debt extinguishment costs are primarily a result of make-whole amounts, the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and other costs incurred from the redemption of senior unsecured notes and other mortgage debt repaid in connection with the Company entering into the $1.35 billion mortgage financing agreement, which was subsequently assumed by RVI pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement.

(A) | The increase primarily was the result of asset sales. In the first nine months of 2018, three unconsolidated joint ventures sold 33 assets of which the Company’s share of the gain was $12.6 million. These gains were offset by impairment charges on seven assets marketed for sale aggregating $104.8 million of which the Company’s share was $9.6 million. Joint venture property sales could significantly impact the amount of income or loss recognized in future periods.

(B) | The valuation allowance is more fully described in Note 3, “Investments in and Advances to Joint Ventures,” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein.

(A) | The Company sold 10 shopping centers and land for a gross sales price of $314.9 million.

(B) | The increase in net loss primarily is attributable to the impact of the RVI spin-off and asset sales.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Funds from Operations and Operating Funds from Operations

Definition and Basis of Presentation

The Company believes that Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and Operating FFO, both non-GAAP financial measures, provide additional and useful means to assess the financial performance of REITs. FFO and Operating FFO are frequently used by the real estate industry, as well as securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, to evaluate the performance of REITs. The Company also believes that FFO and Operating FFO more appropriately measure the core operations of the Company and provide benchmarks to its peer group.

FFO excludes GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and real estate investments, which assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions, and many companies use different depreciable lives and methods. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization unique to real estate and gains and losses from depreciable property dispositions, it can provide a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs and acquisition, disposition and development activities. This provides a perspective of the Company’s financial performance not immediately apparent from net income determined in accordance with GAAP.

FFO is generally defined and calculated by the Company as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), adjusted to exclude (i) preferred share dividends, (ii) gains and losses from disposition of depreciable real estate property and related investments, which are presented net of taxes, (iii) impairment charges on depreciable real estate property and related investments and (iv) certain non-cash items. These non-cash items principally include real property depreciation and amortization of intangibles, equity income (loss) from joint ventures and equity income (loss) from non-controlling interests and adding the Company’s proportionate share of FFO from its unconsolidated joint ventures and non-controlling interests, determined on a consistent basis. The Company’s calculation of FFO is consistent with the definition of FFO provided by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”).

The Company believes that certain charges, income and gains recorded in its operating results are not comparable or reflective of its core operating performance. Operating FFO is useful to investors as the Company removes non-comparable charges, income and gains to analyze the results of its operations and assess performance of the core operating real estate portfolio. As a result, the Company also computes Operating FFO and discusses it with the users of its financial statements, in addition to other measures such as net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP and FFO. Operating FFO is generally defined and calculated by the Company as FFO excluding certain charges, income and gains that management believes are not comparable and indicative of the results of the Company’s operating real estate portfolio. Such adjustments include gains on the sale of and/or change in control of interests, gains/losses on the sale of non-depreciable real estate, impairments of non-depreciable real estate, investment reserves, gains/losses on the early extinguishment of debt, hurricane-related activity, certain transaction fee income, transaction costs and other restructuring type costs. The disclosure of these adjustments is regularly requested by users of the Company’s financial statements.

The adjustment for these charges, income and gains may not be comparable to how other REITs or real estate companies calculate their results of operations, and the Company’s calculation of Operating FFO differs from NAREIT’s definition of FFO. Additionally, the Company provides no assurances that these charges, income and gains are non-recurring. These charges, income and gains could be reasonably expected to recur in future results of operations.

These measures of performance are used by the Company for several business purposes and by other REITs. The Company uses FFO and/or Operating FFO in part (i) as a disclosure to improve the understanding of the Company’s operating results among the investing public, (ii) as a measure of a real estate asset’s performance, (iii) to influence acquisition, disposition and capital investment strategies and (iv) to compare the Company’s performance to that of other publicly traded shopping center REITs.

30

For the reasons described above, management bel ieves that FFO and Operating FFO provide the Company and investors with an important indicator of the Company’s operating performance. They provide recognized measures of performance other than GAAP net income, which may include non-cash items (often sign ificant). Other real estate companies may calculate FFO and Operating FFO in a different manner.

Management recognizes the limitations of FFO and Operating FFO when compared to GAAP’s net income. FFO and Operating FFO do not represent amounts available for dividends, capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties. Management does not use FFO or Operating FFO as an indicator of the Company’s cash obligations and funding requirements for future commitments, acquisitions or development activities. Neither FFO nor Operating FFO represents cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, and neither is necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. Neither FFO nor Operating FFO should be considered an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO and Operating FFO are simply used as additional indicators of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that to further understand its performance, FFO and Operating FFO should be compared with the Company’s reported net income (loss) and considered in addition to cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP, as presented in its consolidated financial statements. Reconciliations of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measure of net income (loss) have been provided below.

Net Operating Income and Same Store Net Operating Income

Definition and Basis of Presentation

The Company uses Net Operating Income (“NOI”), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as a supplemental performance measure. NOI is calculated as property revenues less property-related expenses. The Company believes NOI provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and, when compared across periods, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and disposition activity on an unleveraged basis.

The Company also presents NOI information on a same store basis, or Same Store Net Operating Income (“SSNOI”). The Company defines SSNOI as property revenues less property-related expenses, which exclude straight-line rental income and expenses, lease termination income, management fee expense, fair market value of leases and expense recovery adjustments. SSNOI also excludes activity associated with development and major redevelopment and includes assets owned in comparable periods (15 months for quarter comparisons). In addition, SSNOI excludes all non-property and corporate level revenue and expenses. Other real estate companies may calculate NOI and SSNOI in a different manner. The Company believes SSNOI provides investors with additional information regarding the operating performances of comparable assets because it excludes certain non-cash and non-comparable items as noted above. SSNOI is frequently used by the real estate industry, as well as securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, to evaluate the performance of REITs.

The Company believes that SSNOI is not, and is not intended to be, a presentation in accordance with GAAP. SSNOI information has its limitations as it excludes any capital expenditures associated with the re-leasing of tenant space or as needed to operate the assets. SSNOI does not represent amounts available for dividends, capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties. Management does not use SSNOI as an indicator of the Company’s cash obligations and funding requirements for future commitments, acquisitions or development activities. SSNOI does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. SSNOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. A reconciliation of NOI and SSNOI to their most directly comparable GAAP measure of net income (loss) has been provided:

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES

The Company remains committed to strengthening its balance sheet, improving liquidity and lowering leverage, as well as lowering its overall risk profile. As a result, the Company periodically evaluates opportunities to issue and sell additional debt or equity securities, obtain credit facilities from lenders, or repurchase or refinance long-term debt as part of this overall strategy to further strengthen its financial position.

The Company’s consolidated and unconsolidated debt obligations generally require monthly or semi-annual payments of principal and/or interest over the term of the obligation. While the Company currently believes it has several viable sources to obtain capital and fund its business, including capacity under its credit facilities described below, no assurance can be provided that these obligations will be refinanced or repaid as currently anticipated.

The Company has historically accessed capital sources through both the public and private markets. Acquisitions, developments and redevelopments are generally financed through cash provided from operating activities, Revolving Credit Facilities (as defined

34

below), mortgages assumed, secured debt, unsecured debt, common and preferred equity offerings, joint venture capita l and asset sales. Total consolidated debt outstanding was $2.4 billion at September 30, 2018, compared to $3.9 billion at December 31, 2017.

Spin-off of RVI

On July 1, 2018, the Company completed the spin-off of RVI, which consisted of 48 assets that included 36 continental U.S. assets and 12 Puerto Rico assets. These properties comprised 16.0 million square feet of Company-owned GLA and were located in 17 states and Puerto Rico. The RVI assets had a combined gross book asset value of $2.7 billion and mortgage debt of $1.27 billion as of June 30, 2018. SITE Centers has retained a $190 million preferred stock investment as noted below and continues to manage the RVI assets.

On June 30, 2018, RVI issued 1,000 shares of its series A preferred stock (the “RVI Preferred Shares”) to the Company, which, are noncumulative and have no mandatory dividend rate. The RVI Preferred Shares rank, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of RVI, senior in preference and priority to RVI’s common shares and any other class or series of RVI capital stock. Subject to the requirement that RVI distribute to its common shareholders the minimum amount required to be distributed with respect to any taxable year in order for RVI to maintain its status as a REIT and to avoid U.S. federal income taxes, the RVI Preferred Shares will be entitled to a dividend preference for all dividends declared on RVI’s capital stock at any time up to a “preference amount” equal to $190 million in the aggregate, which amount may increase by up to an additional $10 million if the aggregate gross proceeds of RVI asset sales subsequent to July 1, 2018 exceeds $2.0 billion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the RVI Preferred Shares are only entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of RVI, and RVI’s ability to pay dividends is subject to any restrictions set forth in the terms of its indebtedness.

RVI may redeem the RVI Preferred Shares, or any part thereof, at any time at a price payable per share calculated by dividing the number of RVI Preferred Shares outstanding on the redemption date into the difference of (x) $200 million minus (y) the aggregate amount of dividends previously distributed on the RVI Preferred Shares to be redeemed.

In February 2018, RVI entered into a $1.35 billion mortgage loan in connection with the Company’s spin-off plan (“RVI Mortgage Loan”). This mortgage was assumed by RVI in connection with the spin-off, which occurred on July 1, 2018.

Proceeds from the RVI Mortgage Loan and asset sales in 2018 were used by the Company to repay $452.5 million of outstanding mortgage debt, $900.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes with maturity dates ranging from July 2018 to February 2025 and $200 million of an unsecured term loan. The Company recorded $56.4 million of aggregate debt extinguishment costs, which included $28.4 million of make-whole amounts for the redemption of senior unsecured notes included in Other Expense on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.

RVI Facility

On July 2, 2018, the Company provided an unconditional guaranty to PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”) with respect to any obligations of RVI outstanding from time to time under a $30 million revolving credit agreement entered into by RVI with PNC. RVI has agreed to reimburse the Company for any amounts paid to PNC pursuant to the guaranty (credit facility guaranty fee) plus interest at a contracted rate.

Revolving Credit Facilities

The Company maintains an unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of financial institutions, arranged by J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Citizens Bank, N.A., RBC Capital Markets and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Unsecured Credit Facility”). The Unsecured Credit Facility provides for borrowings of up to $950 million and includes an accordion feature for expansion of availability up to $1.45 billion provided that new or existing lenders agree to the existing terms of the facility and increase their commitment level. The Company also maintains an unsecured revolving credit facility with PNC (the “PNC Facility” together with the Unsecured Credit Facility, the “Revolving Credit Facilities”). The PNC Facility terms are substantially consistent with those contained in the Unsecured Credit Facility. On July 2, 2018, the Company permanently reduced the borrowing capacity under the PNC Facility from $50 million to $20 million. The Company’s borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facilities bear interest at variable rates at the Company’s election, based on either LIBOR, plus a specified spread (1.2% at September 30, 2018), or the Alternate Base Rate, as defined in the respective facility plus a specified spread (0.20% at September 30, 2018). The Company also pays an annual facility fee (0.25% at September 30, 2018) on the aggregate commitments applicable to each Revolving Credit Facility. The specified spreads and commitment fees vary depending on the Company’s long-term senior unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) and their successors.

The Revolving Credit Facilities and the indentures under which the Company’s senior and subordinated unsecured indebtedness are, or may be, issued contain certain financial and operating covenants including, among other things, leverage ratios and debt service

35

coverage and fixed charge coverage ratios, as well as limitations on the Company’s ability to incur secured and unsecured indebtedness, sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and engage in mergers and certain acquisitions. These credit facilities and indentures also contain customary default provisions including the failure to make timely payment s of principal and interest payable thereunder, the failure to comply with the Company’s financial and operating covenants, the occurrence of a material adverse effect on the Company and the failure of the Company or its majority-owned subsidiaries (i.e., entities in which the Company has a greater than 50% interest) to pay, when due, certain indebtedness in excess of certain thresholds beyond applicable grace and cure periods. In the event the Company’s lenders or note holders declare a default, as define d in the applicable agreements governing the debt, the Company may be unable to obtain further funding, and/or an acceleration of any outstanding borrowings may occur. As of September 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial coven ants in the agreements governing its debt. Although the Company intends to operate in compliance with these covenants, if the Company were to violate these covenants, the Company may be subject to higher finance costs and fees or accelerated maturities. The Company believes it will continue to operate in compliance with these covenants in 2018 and beyond.

Equity

Common Shares

On May 18, 2018, in anticipation of the RVI spin-off transaction, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its outstanding common shares, as well as those held in treasury, at a ratio of one-for-two.

The Company has a $250 million continuous equity program. At October 24, 2018, the Company had all $250.0 million available for the future issuance of common shares under that program, subject to certain conditions.

Consolidated Indebtedness – as of September 30, 2018

The Company expects to fund its maturing indebtedness obligations from available cash, asset sales and joint venture activity, current operations and utilization of its Revolving Credit Facilities; however, the Company may issue long-term debt and/or equity securities in lieu of, or in addition to, borrowing under its Revolving Credit Facilities. The Company intends to continue to maintain a long-term financing strategy with limited reliance on short-term debt. The Company believes its Revolving Credit Facilities are sufficient for its liquidity strategy and longer-term capital structure needs. Part of the Company’s overall strategy includes refinancing short-term debt maturities in order to increase the weighted-average duration of its indebtedness and scheduling future debt maturities in a balanced manner over the long term. The following depicts the Company’s consolidated debt outstanding at September 30, 2018, which matures within the subsequent 13-month period (ending October 2019), and compares that amount to the cash and restricted cash available to fund debt repayments and availability under the Revolving Credit Facilities. Furthermore, the following shows the Company’s cash and availability under the Revolving Credit Facilities on a pro forma basis (in millions):

February 2019 mortgage debt maturities | $ | 95.5 |
Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2018 | $ | 11.4 |
Borrowing capacity available on Revolving Credit Facilities at September 30, 2018 |  | 865.0 |
Pro forma cash and Revolving Credit Facilities available at September 30, 2018 | $ | 876.4 |

At September 30, 2018, the Company’s borrowing capacity on the Revolving Credit Facilities and cash on hand was sufficient to repay debt maturities through October 2019. As discussed above, the Company is looking to strengthen its balance sheet and reduce leverage, and as a result, the Company may utilize proceeds from asset sales to repay debt. No assurance can be provided that these obligations will be refinanced or repaid as currently anticipated. These sources of funds could be affected by various risks and uncertainties (see Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017).

The Company has addressed all of its 2018 consolidated debt maturities. Management believes the scheduled debt maturities in future years are manageable. The Company continually evaluates its debt maturities and, based on management’s assessment, believes it has viable financing and refinancing alternatives. The Company seeks to manage its debt maturities through executing a strategy to extend debt duration, increase liquidity, lower leverage and improve the Company’s credit profile with the focus of lowering the Company's balance sheet risk and cost of capital.

Unconsolidated Joint Ventures Mortgage Indebtedness – as of S eptember 30, 2018

Indebtedness of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures at September 30, 2018, which matures within the subsequent 13-month period (ending October 2019), is as follows (in millions):

| Outstanding at September 30, 2018 |  |  | At SITE Centers Share |
BRE DDR Retail Holdings III(A) | $ | 296.3 |  |  | $ | 14.8 |
BRE DDR Retail Holdings IV(B) |  | 92.1 |  |  |  | 4.6 |
DDRTC Core Retail Fund, LLC(B) |  | 339.5 |  |  |  | 50.9 |
DDR Domestic Retail Fund I(C) |  | 314.3 |  |  |  | 62.9 |
DDR SAU Retail Fund LLC |  | 21.6 |  |  |  | 4.3 |
Total debt maturities through October 2019 | $ | 1,063.8 |  |  | $ | 137.5 |

| (A) | In October 2018, $289.1 million was extended to mature in November 2019.

| (B) | Expected to be extended at the joint venture’s option in accordance with the loan agreement.

| (C) | Expected to be extended at the joint venture’s option in accordance with the loan agreement, or repayment as a result of asset sales.

It is expected that the joint ventures will fund these obligations from refinancing opportunities, including extension options or possible asset sales. No assurance can be provided that these obligations will be refinanced or repaid as currently anticipated.

Cash Flow Activity

The Company’s core business of leasing space to well-capitalized tenants continues to generate consistent and predictable cash flow after expenses, interest payments and preferred share dividends. This capital is available for use at the Company’s discretion for investment, debt repayment and the payment of dividends on common and preferred shares.

The Company’s cash flow activities are summarized as follows (in thousands):

| Nine Months |
| Ended September 30, |
| 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Cash flow provided by operating activities | $ | 197,469 |  |  | $ | 302,233 |
Cash flow provided by investing activities |  | 290,960 |  |  |  | 270,059 |
Cash flow used for financing activities |  | (569,878 | ) |  |  | (591,424 | )

Changes in cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to the prior comparable period are described as follows:

Operating Activities: Cash provided by operating activities decreased $104.8 million primarily due to the impact of asset sales and transaction costs related to the RVI spin-off, partially offset by a decrease in interest and general administrative expense.

Investing Activities: Cash provided by investing activities increased $20.9 million primarily due to the following:

| • | Increase in distributions and repayment of advances from joint ventures and affiliates of $104.5 million, net of contributions;

| • | Reduction in real estate assets acquired and developed of $80.5 million and

| • | Reduction in proceeds from disposition of real estate $153.2 million.

Financing Activities: Cash used for financing activities decreased $21.6 million primarily due to the following:

| • | Decrease in debt and equity issuance of $83.6 million net of debt repayments and

| • | Contribution of net assets to RVI of $52.4 million.

Dividend Distribution

The Company satisfied its REIT requirement of distributing at least 90% of ordinary taxable income with declared common and preferred share cash dividends of $202.8 million and $230.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Because actual distributions were greater than 100% of taxable income, federal income taxes were not incurred by the Company in the first nine months of 2018.

37

The Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per common share for the third quarter of 2018 and $0.38 per common share for the first and second quarters of 2018, adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split. The Board of Directors expects to continue to monitor the Company’s dividend policy and make such adjustments as are determined to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders in order to maximize the Company’s free cash flow while still adhering to REIT payout requirements.

SOURCES AND USES OF CAPITAL

The Company remains committed to strengthening the balance sheet, improving liquidity and lowering leverage, as well as lowering its overall risk profile. Asset sales continue to represent a potential source of proceeds to be used to achieve these objectives.

Strategic Transaction Activity

Spin-off of RVI

On July 1, 2018, the Company completed the spin-off of 48 assets into a separate, publicly-traded company, RVI. See further discussion in the “Executive Summary” and “Liquidity, Capital Resources and Financing Activities” sections surrounding the capital structure and related financing.

In connection with the spin-off, on July 1, 2018, the Company and RVI entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement pursuant to which, among other things, the Company agreed to transfer the properties and certain related assets, liabilities and obligations to RVI and to distribute 100% of the outstanding common shares of RVI to holders of record of the Company’s common shares as of the close of business on June 26, 2018, the record date. On the spin-off date, holders of the Company’s common shares received one common share of RVI for every ten shares of the Company’s common stock held on the record date. In connection with the spin-off, the Company retained 1,000 shares of RVI’s series A preferred stock having an aggregate dividend preference equal to $190 million, which amount may increase by up to an additional $10 million depending on the amount of aggregate gross proceeds generated by RVI asset sales. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the separation and distribution agreement, RVI has a repayment obligation to the Company of $36.5 million primarily for certain cash balances held in restricted cash accounts on the separation date in connection with the RVI Mortgage Loan. RVI is obligated to repay SITE Centers as soon as reasonably possible out of its operating cash flow but in no event later than March 31, 2020.

On July 1, 2018, the Company and RVI also entered into an external management agreement, which, together with various property management agreements, governs the fees, terms and conditions pursuant to which the Company will manage RVI and its properties. Pursuant to these management agreements, the Company provides RVI with day-to-day management, subject to supervision and certain discretionary limits and authorities granted by the RVI Board of Directors. RVI does not have any employees. In general, either the Company or RVI may terminate the management agreement on December 31, 2019 or at the end of any six-month renewal period thereafter. The Company and RVI also entered into a tax matters agreement which governs the rights and responsibilities of the parties following the spin-off with respect to various tax matters and provides for the allocation of tax-related assets, liabilities and obligations.

Dispositions

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company sold 10 shopping center properties, aggregating 2.1 million square feet, which together with land sales generated proceeds totaling $314.9 million. The Company recorded a net gain of $39.6 million. In addition, three of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures sold 33 shopping center assets, aggregating 4.1 million square feet, which together with land sales generated proceeds totaling $665.5 million, of which the Company’s proportionate share of the proceeds was $70.9 million. In addition, from October 1, 2018 through October 24, 2018, the Company sold one operating asset and two assets owned by a joint venture, for an aggregate sales price of $85.2 million, $32.9 million at the Company’s share. The Company’s pro rata share of proceeds is before giving effect to the repayment of indebtedness and transaction costs. The asset sales from the joint ventures with Blackstone resulted in preferred equity repayments received by the Company of $68.1 million from January 1, 2018 through October 24, 2018.

Changes in investment strategies for assets may impact the Company’s hold-period assumptions for those properties. The disposition of certain assets could result in a loss or impairment recorded in future periods. The Company evaluates all potential sale opportunities taking into account the long-term growth prospects of the assets, the use of proceeds and the impact to the Company’s balance sheet, in addition to the impact on operating results.

Redevelopment Opportunities

One of the important benefits of the Company’s asset class is the ability to phase redevelopment projects over time until appropriate leasing levels can be achieved. To maximize the return on capital spending, the Company generally adheres to strict investment criteria thresholds. A key component to the Company’s strategic plan will be the evaluation of additional redevelopment

38

potential within the portfolio, particularly as it relates to the efficient use of the real estate and the Company’s ratio of big box tenants versus small shop space.

The Company will generally commence construction on various redevelopments only after substantial tenant leasing has occurred. The Company will continue to closely monitor its expected spending in 2018 for redevelopments, as the Company considers this funding to be discretionary spending. The Company does not anticipate expending significant funds on joint venture redevelopment projects in 2018.

The Company’s consolidated land holdings are classified in two separate line items on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets included herein, (i) Land and (ii) Construction in Progress and Land. At September 30, 2018, the $1.0 billion of Land primarily consisted of land that is part of the Company’s shopping center portfolio. However, this amount also includes a small portion of vacant land composed primarily of outlots or expansion pads adjacent to the shopping center properties. Approximately 131 acres of this land, which has a recorded cost basis of approximately $16 million, is available for future development.

Included in Construction in Progress and Land at September 30, 2018, was $19 million of recorded costs related to undeveloped land being marketed for sale for which active construction never commenced or was previously ceased. The Company evaluates these assets each reporting period and records an impairment charge equal to the difference between the current carrying value and fair value when the expected undiscounted cash flows are less than the asset’s carrying value.

Redevelopment Projects

As part of its strategy to expand, improve and re-tenant various properties, at September 30, 2018, the Company has invested approximately $110 million in various consolidated active redevelopment projects.

The Company’s major redevelopment projects are typically substantially completed within two years of the construction commencement date. At September 30, 2018, the Company’s significant consolidated redevelopment projects were as follows (in thousands):

Location |  | Estimated Stabilized Quarter |  | Estimated Gross Cost |  |  | Cost Incurred at September 30, 2018 |
Lee Vista Promenade (Orlando, Florida) |  | 1Q19 |  | $ | 39,342 |  |  | $ | 30,157 |

For redevelopment assets completed in 2018, the assets placed in service were completed at a cost of approximately $136 per square foot.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company has a number of off-balance sheet joint ventures with varying economic structures. Through these interests, the Company has investments in operating properties and one development project. Such arrangements are generally with institutional investors located throughout the United States.

The Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures had aggregate outstanding indebtedness to third parties of $2.0 billion and $2.7 billion at September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively (see Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk). Such mortgages are generally non-recourse to the Company and its partners; however, certain mortgages may have recourse to the Company and its partners in certain limited situations, such as misuse of funds and material misrepresentations.

CAPITALIZATION

At September 30, 2018, the Company’s capitalization consisted of $2.4 billion of debt, $525.0 million of preferred shares and $2.5 billion of market equity (market equity is defined as common shares and OP Units outstanding multiplied by $13.39, the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the New York Stock Exchange at September 28, 2018, the last trading day of September), resulting in a debt to total market capitalization ratio of 0.44 to 1.0, as compared to the ratio of 0.51 to 1.0 at September 30, 2017. The

closing price of the Company’s common shares on the New York Stock Exchange was $18.32 at September 30, 2017 which reflects an adjustment of the impact of the one-for-two reverse stock split which occurred in May 2018. At September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s total debt consisted of $2.1 billion and $3.5 billion of fixed-rate debt, respectively, and $0.3 billion and $0.5 billion of variable-rate debt, respectively.

It is management’s strategy to have access to the capital resources necessary to manage the Company’s balance sheet and to repay upcoming maturities. Accordingly, the Company may seek to obtain funds through additional debt or equity financings and/or joint venture capital in a manner consistent with its intention to operate with a conservative debt capitalization policy and to reduce the Company’s cost of capital by maintaining an investment grade rating with Moody’s, S&P and Fitch Ratings, Inc. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities, as it may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating organization. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. The Company may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms, or at all, which may negatively affect future ratings.

The Company’s credit facilities and the indentures under which the Company’s senior and subordinated unsecured indebtedness are, or may be, issued contain certain financial and operating covenants, including, among other things, debt service coverage and fixed charge coverage ratios, as well as limitations on the Company’s ability to incur secured and unsecured indebtedness, sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, engage in mergers and certain acquisitions and make distribution to its shareholders. Although the Company intends to operate in compliance with these covenants, if the Company were to violate these covenants, the Company may be subject to higher finance costs and fees or accelerated maturities. In addition, certain of the Company’s credit facilities and indentures permit the acceleration of maturity in the event certain other debt of the Company has been accelerated. Foreclosure on mortgaged properties or an inability to refinance existing indebtedness would have a negative impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER COMMITMENTS

The Company has addressed all of its 2018 consolidated debt maturities. The Company expects to fund future maturities from utilization of its Revolving Credit Facilities, proceeds from asset sales, cash flow from operations and/or additional debt or equity financings. No assurance can be provided that these obligations will be repaid as currently anticipated or refinanced. The Company’s scheduled principal payments as of September 30, 2018 are presented in Note 7, “Indebtedness,” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein, and reflect the refinancings and repayments in the first nine months of 2018, as discussed in the Liquidity Section included earlier in this section.

In conjunction with the redevelopment of shopping centers, the Company had entered into commitments with general contractors aggregating approximately $19.2 million for its consolidated properties at September 30, 2018. These obligations, composed principally of construction contracts, are generally due within 12 to 24 months, as the related construction costs are incurred, and are expected to be financed through operating cash flow, new construction loans, asset sales or borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facilities.

The Company routinely enters into contracts for the maintenance of its properties. These contracts typically can be canceled upon 30 to 60 days’ notice without penalty. At September 30, 2018, the Company had purchase order obligations, typically payable within one year, aggregating approximately $7.5 million related to the maintenance of its properties and general and administrative expenses.

RVI Guaranty

On July 2, 2018, the Company provided an unconditional guaranty to PNC Bank with respect to any obligations of RVI outstanding from time to time under a $30 million revolving credit agreement entered into by RVI with PNC Bank. RVI has agreed to reimburse the Company for any amounts paid to PNC Bank pursuant to the guaranty (credit facility guaranty fee) plus interest at a contracted rate. RVI also pays the Company an annual fee on account of its guaranty commitment.

INFLATION

Most of the Company’s long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. Such provisions include clauses enabling the Company to receive additional rental income from escalation clauses that generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases and/or percentage rentals based on tenants’ gross sales. Such escalations are determined by negotiation, increases in the consumer price index or similar inflation indices. In addition, many of the Company’s leases are for terms of less than 10 years, permitting the Company to seek increased rents at market rates upon renewal. Most of the Company’s leases require the tenants to pay their share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing the Company’s exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS

Despite the recent tenant bankruptcies and increases in e-commerce, the Company continues to believe there is retailer demand for quality locations within well-positioned shopping centers. Further, the Company continues to see demand from a broad range of retailers for its space, particularly in the off-price sector, which the Company believes is a reflection of the general outlook of consumers who are demanding more value for their dollars. This is evidenced by the continued stable volume of leasing activity, which was more than one million square feet of space for new leases and renewals for the three months ended 2018, as compared to almost two million square feet of space for new leases and renewals for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease in the leasing activity is attributable to the reduced amount of consolidated and joint venture assets of the Company in 2018 as compared to 2017. The Company also benefits from a diversified tenant base, with only two tenants whose annualized rental revenue equals or exceeds 3% of the Company’s annualized consolidated revenues plus the Company’s proportionate share of unconsolidated joint venture revenues (TJX Companies which include T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, Sierra Trading Post, HomeGoods and HomeSense at 5.3% and Bed Bath & Beyond which includes Bed Bath & Beyond, World Market, buybuy Baby and Christmas Tree Shops at 3.4%). Other significant tenants, including unowned locations, consist of Walmart/Sam’s Club, Target, Five Below, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Ross Stores, Lowe’s and Ulta, all of which have relatively strong credit ratings, remain well-capitalized and have outperformed other retail categories on a relative basis over time. In addition, several of the Company’s big box tenants (Walmart/Sam’s Club, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Best Buy and Target) have been adapting to an omni-channel retail environment, creating positive overall sales growth over the last few years. The Company believes these tenants will continue providing a stable revenue base for the foreseeable future, given the long-term nature of these leases. Moreover, the majority of the tenants in the Company’s shopping centers provide day-to-day consumer necessities with a focus toward value and convenience, versus high-priced, discretionary luxury items, which the Company believes will enable many of its tenants to outperform even in a challenging economic environment.

The retail shopping sector continues to be affected by the competitive nature of the retail business, including the impact of internet shopping and the competition for market share, as well as general economic conditions, where stronger retailers have out-positioned some of the weaker retailers. These shifts can force some market share away from weaker retailers, which could require them to downsize and close stores and/or declare bankruptcy. In many cases, the loss of a weaker tenant or downsizing of space creates a value-add opportunity to re-lease space at higher rents to a stronger retailer. There can be no assurance that the loss of a tenant or downsizing of space will not adversely affect the Company in the future (see Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017).

The Company believes that the quality of its shopping center portfolio is strong, as evidenced by the strong historical occupancy rates and consistent growth in the average annualized base rent per occupied square foot. At September 30, 2018, the shopping center portfolio occupancy was 90.4% and its total portfolio average annualized base rent per occupied square foot was $17.47, on a pro rata basis. Restated to reflect the assets owned at September 30, 2018, the shopping center portfolio occupancy was 91.5% at December 31, 2017 and 91.2% at September 30, 2017 and the total portfolio average annualized base rent per occupied square foot was $17.25 at December 31, 2017 and $17.17 at September 30, 2017, on a pro rata basis. Due largely to a number of recent anchor tenant bankruptcies, the Company has had to invest a substantial amount of capital to re-lease those units; however, the per square foot cost to do so has been predominantly consistent with the Company’s historical trends. The weighted-average cost of tenant improvements and lease commissions estimated to be incurred over the expected lease term for new leases executed during 2018 was $6.61 per rentable square foot on a pro rata basis. The Company generally does not expend a significant amount of capital on lease renewals. The quality of the property revenue stream is high and consistent, as it is generally derived from retailers with good credit profiles under long-term leases, with very little reliance on overage rents generated by tenant sales performance. The Company recognizes the risks posed by the economy, but believes that the position of its transformed portfolio and the general diversity and credit quality of its tenant base should enable it to successfully navigate through a potentially challenging retail environment.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

New Accounting Standards are more fully described in Note 1, “Nature of Business and Financial Statement Presentation,” to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including trends that might appear, should not be taken as indicative of future operations. The Company considers portions of this information to be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, both as amended, with respect to the Company’s expectations for future periods. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements related to acquisitions (including any related pro forma financial information) and other business development activities, future capital expenditures, financing sources and availability and the effects of environmental and other regulations. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it can

41

give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved. For this purpose, any statement s contained herein that are not statements of historical fact should be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, the words “will,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “seeks,” “estimates” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Readers should exercise caution in interpreting and relying on forward-looking statements because such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are, in some cases, beyond the Company’s control and that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements and that could materially affect the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements. For addit ional factors that could cause the results of the Company to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements (see Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017).

Factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

| • | The Company is subject to general risks affecting the real estate industry, including the need to enter into new leases or renew leases on favorable terms to generate rental revenues, and any economic downturn may adversely affect the ability of the Company’s tenants, or new tenants, to enter into new leases or the ability of the Company’s existing tenants to renew their leases at rates at least as favorable as their current rates;

| • | The Company could be adversely affected by changes in the local markets where its properties are located, as well as by adverse changes in national economic and market conditions;

| • | The Company may fail to anticipate the effects on its properties of changes in consumer buying practices, including sales over the Internet and the resulting retailing practices and space needs of its tenants, or a general downturn in its tenants’ businesses, which may cause tenants to close stores or default in payment of rent;

| • | The Company is subject to competition for tenants from other owners of retail properties, and its tenants are subject to competition from other retailers and methods of distribution. The Company is dependent upon the successful operations and financial condition of its tenants, in particular its major tenants, and could be adversely affected by the bankruptcy of those tenants;

| • | The Company relies on major tenants, which makes it vulnerable to changes in the business and financial condition of, or demand for its space by, such tenants;

| • | The Company may not realize the intended benefits of acquisition or merger transactions. The acquired assets may not perform as well as the Company anticipated, or the Company may not successfully integrate the assets and realize improvements in occupancy and operating results. The acquisition of certain assets may subject the Company to liabilities, including environmental liabilities;

| • | The Company may fail to identify, acquire, construct or develop additional properties that produce a desired yield on invested capital, or may fail to effectively integrate acquisitions of properties or portfolios of properties. In addition, the Company may be limited in its acquisition opportunities due to competition, the inability to obtain financing on reasonable terms or any financing at all and other factors;

| • | The Company may fail to dispose of properties on favorable terms, especially in regions experiencing deteriorating economic conditions. In addition, real estate investments can be illiquid, particularly as prospective buyers may experience increased costs of financing or difficulties obtaining financing due to local or global conditions, and could limit the Company’s ability to promptly make changes to its portfolio to respond to economic and other conditions;

| • | The Company may abandon a development or redevelopment opportunity after expending resources if it determines that the development opportunity is not feasible due to a variety of factors, including a lack of availability of construction financing on reasonable terms, the impact of the economic environment on prospective tenants’ ability to enter into new leases or pay contractual rent, or the inability of the Company to obtain all necessary zoning and other required governmental permits and authorizations;

| • | The Company may not complete development or redevelopment projects on schedule as a result of various factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, such as weather, labor conditions, governmental approvals, material shortages or general economic downturn, resulting in limited availability of capital, increased debt service expense and construction costs and decreases in revenue;

| • | The Company’s financial condition may be affected by required debt service payments, the risk of default and restrictions on its ability to incur additional debt or to enter into certain transactions under its credit facilities and other documents

42

|  | governing its debt obligations. In addition, the Company may encounter difficulties in obtaining permanent financing or refinancing existing debt. Borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facilities are subject to certain representations and warranties and customary events of default, including any event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial condition;

| • | Changes in interest rates could adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common shares, as well as its performance and cash flow;

| • | Debt and/or equity financing necessary for the Company to continue to grow and operate its business may not be available or may not be available on favorable terms;

| • | Disruptions in the financial markets could affect the Company’s ability to obtain financing on reasonable terms and have other adverse effects on the Company and the market price of the Company’s common shares;

| • | The Company is subject to complex regulations related to its status as a REIT and would be adversely affected if it failed to qualify as a REIT;

| • | The Company must make distributions to shareholders to continue to qualify as a REIT, and if the Company must borrow funds to make distributions, those borrowings may not be available on favorable terms or at all;

| • | Joint venture investments may involve risks not otherwise present for investments made solely by the Company, including the possibility that a partner or co-venturer may become bankrupt, may at any time have interests or goals different from those of the Company and may take action contrary to the Company’s instructions, requests, policies or objectives, including the Company’s policy with respect to maintaining its qualification as a REIT. In addition, a partner or co-venturer may not have access to sufficient capital to satisfy its funding obligations to the joint venture. The partner could cause a default under the joint venture loan for reasons outside the Company’s control. Furthermore, the Company could be required to reduce the carrying value of its equity investments, including preferred investments, if a loss in the carrying value of the investment is realized;

| • | The Company’s decision to dispose of real estate assets, including undeveloped land and construction in progress, would change the holding period assumption in the undiscounted cash flow impairment analyses, which could result in material impairment losses and adversely affect the Company’s financial results;

| • | The outcome of pending or future litigation, including litigation with tenants or joint venture partners, may adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition;

| • | Property damage, expenses related thereto, and other business and economic consequences (including the potential loss of revenue) resulting from extreme weather conditions in locations where the Company owns properties;

| • | Sufficiency and timing of any insurance recovery payments related to damages and lost revenues from extreme weather conditions;

| • | The Company is subject to potential environmental liabilities;

| • | The Company may incur losses that are uninsured or exceed policy coverage due to its liability for certain injuries to persons, property or the environment occurring on its properties;

| • | The Company could incur additional expenses to comply with or respond to claims under the Americans with Disabilities Act or otherwise be adversely affected by changes in government regulations, including changes in environmental, zoning, tax and other regulations and

| • | The Company’s Board of Directors, which regularly reviews the Company’s business strategy and objectives, may change the Company’s strategic plan based on a variety of factors and conditions, including in response to changing market conditions.

Item 3.QUANTIT ATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company’s primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The Company’s debt, excluding unconsolidated joint venture debt, is summarized as follows:

43

| September 30, 2018 |  |  | December 31, 2017 |
| Amount (Millions) |  |  | Weighted- Average Maturity (Years) |  |  | Weighted- Average Interest Rate |  |  | Percentage of Total |  |  | Amount (Millions) |  |  | Weighted- Average Maturity (Years) |  |  | Weighted- Average Interest Rate |  |  | Percentage of Total |
Fixed-Rate Debt | $ | 2,081.5 |  |  |  | 6.0 |  |  |  | 4.3 | % |  |  | 87.3 | % |  | $ | 3,451.2 |  |  |  | 5.6 |  |  |  | 4.2 | % |  |  | 89.7 | %
Variable-Rate Debt | $ | 303.5 |  |  |  | 3.9 |  |  |  | 3.6 | % |  |  | 12.7 | % |  | $ | 398.1 |  |  |  | 2.7 |  |  |  | 2.9 | % |  |  | 10.3 | %

The Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures’ indebtedness at its carrying value, adjusted to reflect the $42.0 million of variable-rate debt ($2.1 million at the Company’s proportionate share) that LIBOR was swapped to at a fixed rate of 1.9% at December 31, 2017, is summarized as follows:

| September 30, 2018 |  |  | December 31, 2017 |
| Joint Venture Debt (Millions) |  |  | Company's Proportionate Share (Millions) |  |  | Weighted- Average Maturity (Years) |  |  | Weighted- Average Interest Rate |  |  | Joint Venture Debt (Millions) |  |  | Company's Proportionate Share (Millions) |  |  | Weighted- Average Maturity (Years) |  |  | Weighted- Average Interest Rate |
Fixed-Rate Debt | $ | 802.0 |  |  | $ | 147.0 |  |  |  | 5.3 |  |  |  | 4.1 | % |  | $ | 953.6 |  |  | $ | 154.6 |  |  |  | 5.3 |  |  |  | 4.2 | %
Variable-Rate Debt | $ | 1,198.8 |  |  | $ | 157.2 |  |  |  | 0.8 |  |  |  | 4.0 | % |  | $ | 1,547.6 |  |  | $ | 200.2 |  |  |  | 1.3 |  |  |  | 3.3 | %

The Company intends to use retained cash flow, proceeds from asset sales, equity and debt financing and variable-rate indebtedness available under its Revolving Credit Facilities to repay indebtedness and fund capital expenditures of the Company’s shopping centers. Thus, to the extent the Company incurs additional variable-rate indebtedness, its exposure to increases in interest rates in an inflationary period could increase. The Company does not believe, however, that increases in interest expense as a result of inflation will significantly impact the Company’s distributable cash flow.

The carrying value and the fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate debt are adjusted to include the Company’s proportionate share of the joint venture fixed-rate debt. An estimate of the effect of a 100 basis-point increase at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, is summarized as follows (in millions):

| September 30, 2018 |  |  |  | December 31, 2017 |
| Carrying Value |  |  | Fair Value |  |  | 100 Basis-Point Increase in Market Interest Rate |  |  |  | Carrying Value |  |  | Fair Value |  |  | 100 Basis-Point Increase in Market Interest Rate |
Company's fixed-rate debt | $ | 2,081.5 |  |  | $ | 2,075.7 |  |  | $ | 1,973.4 |  |  |  | $ | 3,451.2 |  |  | $ | 3,537.5 |  |  | $ | 3,372.7 |
Company's proportionate share of joint venture fixed-rate debt | $ | 147.0 |  |  | $ | 141.0 |  |  | $ | 135.2 |  |  |  | $ | 154.6 |  |  | $ | 150.3 |  |  | $ | 144.1 |

The sensitivity to changes in interest rates of the Company’s fixed-rate debt was determined using a valuation model based upon factors that measure the net present value of such obligations that arise from the hypothetical estimate as discussed above.

A 100 basis-point increase in short-term market interest rates on variable-rate debt at September 30, 2018, would result in an increase in interest expense of approximately $2.3 million for the Company and $1.2 million representing the Company’s proportionate share of the joint ventures’ interest expense relating to variable-rate debt outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The estimated increase in interest expense does not give effect to possible changes in the daily balance of the Company’s or joint ventures’ outstanding variable-rate debt.

The Company and its joint ventures intend to continually monitor and actively manage interest costs on their variable-rate debt portfolio and may enter into swap positions based on market fluctuations. In addition, the Company believes it has the ability to obtain funds through additional equity and/or debt offerings and joint venture capital. Accordingly, the cost of obtaining such protection agreements versus the Company’s access to capital markets will continue to be evaluated. The Company has not entered, and does not plan to enter, into any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had no other material exposure to market risk.

44

ITEM 4. | CONTROL S AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation, pursuant to Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation as required, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and were effective as of the end of such period to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its CEO and CFO, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During the three months ended September 30, 2018, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to various legal proceedings, which, taken together, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company is also subject to a variety of legal actions for personal injury or property damage arising in the ordinary course of its business, most of which are covered by insurance. While the resolution of all matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of such legal proceedings and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial position or results of operations.
