1. Overview
Organization and Description of Business
Douglas Emmett, Inc. is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT). We are one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii. We focus on owning and acquiring a substantial share of top-tier office properties and premier multifamily communities in neighborhoods that possess significant supply constraints, high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities.
Through our interest in Douglas Emmett Properties, LP (our operating partnership) and its subsidiaries, as well as our investment in our institutional unconsolidated real estate funds (Funds), we own or partially own, manage, lease, acquire and develop real estate, consisting primarily of office and multifamily properties in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii. As of September 30, 2014, we owned a consolidated portfolio of fifty-two office properties (including ancillary retail space) and nine multifamily properties, as well as the fee interests in two parcels of land subject to ground leases. Alongside our consolidated portfolio, we also manage and own equity interests in our Funds which, at September 30, 2014, owned eight additional office properties, for a combined sixty office properties in our total portfolio.
The terms "us," "we" and "our" as used in these financial statements refer to Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, are the consolidated financial statements of Douglas Emmett, Inc. and our subsidiaries, including our operating partnership. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in our consolidated financial statements, and certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) may have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make their presentation not misleading. The accompanying unaudited financial statements include, in our opinion, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information set forth therein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the notes thereto. Any references to the number of properties, square footage and geography, are unaudited and outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm’s review of our financial statements, in accordance with the standards of the United States Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB).
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
During the period covered by this report, we have not made any material changes to our significant accounting policies included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. During the first quarter of 2014, we added to our policies the accounting for insurance recoveries as follows:
The amount by which insurance recoveries related to property damage exceed any losses recognized from that damage are recorded as other income when payment is either received or receipt is determined to be probable.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Provided that we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate-level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our stockholders that we derive from our REIT qualifying activities. We are subject to corporate-level tax on the earnings that we derive through our taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRS).
Tenant improvements and lease intangibles
Tenant improvements and leasing intangibles are depreciated and amortized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. Unamortized lease intangible amounts related to leases terminated prior to their stated expirations are written off in the period of termination. As tenant improvements in our buildings generally remain in place after the expiration of the lease, we continue to carry these items, offset by the related accumulated depreciation, on our balance sheet even after the tenant has moved out. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2014, tenant improvements and leasing intangibles recognized from the purchase of buildings included $354.5 million of fully depreciated and amortized items, and $110.8 million of fully depreciated and amortized items recognized from our leasing activities, compared to $343.6 million and $84.1 million, respectively, at December 31, 2013. Because the inclusion of these items is entirely offset by the related accumulated depreciation and amortization, fully depreciated and amortized items have no impact on our net asset values.
Recently Issued Accounting Literature
Changes to GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in the form of Accounting Standard Updates (ASUs). We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs.
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation is Fixed at the Reporting Date (Topic 405), which provides guidance for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this ASU is fixed at the reporting date, except for obligations addressed within existing guidance in GAAP. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013, which for us was the first quarter of 2014. We adopted ASU No. 2013-04 during the first quarter of 2014, and it did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations, as we do not currently have any obligations within the scope of this ASU.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which provides guidance for the accounting of revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, which for us is the first quarter of 2017. Early adoption is not permitted. We do not expect this ASU to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations, as lease contracts are not within the scope of this ASU.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), which provides guidance about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures if necessary. The ASU is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter, which for us is the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. Early application is permitted. We do not expect this ASU to have a material impact on our disclosures.
The FASB has not issued any other ASUs during 2014 that we expect to be applicable and have a material impact on our future financial position or results of operations.

7. Interest Rate Contracts
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
We make use of interest rate swap and interest rate cap contracts to manage the risk associated with changes in the interest rates on our floating-rate borrowings. When we enter into a floating-rate term loan, we generally enter into an interest rate swap agreement for the equivalent principal amount, for a period covering the majority of the loan term, which effectively converts our floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis during that time. In limited instances, we make use of interest rate caps to limit our exposure to interest rate increases on underlying floating-rate debt. We may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to hedge certain economic risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply, or for which we elect to not apply hedge accounting. We do not make use of any other derivative instruments, and we do not speculate in derivatives. See note 5 for the details of our floating-rate debt that we hedge.
Designated Hedges
As of September 30, 2014, the totals of our existing swaps that qualified as highly effective cash flow hedges were as follows:
|
| | | | |
Interest Rate Derivative | | Number of Instruments | | Notional (in thousands) |
| | | | |
Interest Rate Swaps | | 7 | | $1,828,080 |
As of September 30, 2014, the totals of our Funds' existing swaps that qualified as highly effective cash flow hedges were
as follows:
|
| | | | |
Interest Rate Derivative | | Number of Instruments | | Notional (in thousands) |
| | | | |
Interest Rate Swaps | | 1 | | $325,000 |
Non-designated Hedges
Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative. As of September 30, 2014, we had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were not designated for accounting purposes as hedging instruments, but were used to hedge our economic exposure to interest rate risk:
|
| | | | |
Interest Rate Derivative | | Number of Instruments | | Notional (in thousands) |
| | | | |
Purchased Caps | | 4 | | $100,000 |
Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
We have agreements with each of our derivative counterparties that contain a provision under which we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations if we default on the underlying indebtedness that we are hedging, including any default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender. There have been no events of default with respect to any of our derivatives.
As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the fair value of our derivatives in a net liability position, when aggregated by counterparty, was $46.1 million and $67.2 million, respectively, which includes accrued interest, but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our Funds did not have any derivatives in a net liability position.

Accounting for Interest Rate Contracts
For hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges, gain or loss recognition are generally matched to the earnings effect of the related hedged item or transaction, with any resulting hedge ineffectiveness recorded as interest expense. Hedge ineffectiveness is determined by comparing the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedge to the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the related hedged item or transaction. All other changes in the fair value of these hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI), which is a component of equity outside of earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to our hedges are then reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the hedged item or transaction. Amounts reported in AOCI related to our Funds' hedges are reclassified to income, including depreciation, from unconsolidated real estate funds, as interest payments are made by our Funds on their hedged items or transactions. Changes in fair value of derivatives not designated as hedges are recorded as interest expense.
We estimate that $32.6 million of our AOCI related to our derivatives designated as cash flow hedges will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense during the next twelve months, and $773 thousand of our AOCI related to our Funds' derivatives designated as cash flow hedges will be reclassified as a decrease to income, including depreciation, from unconsolidated real estate funds, during the next twelve months. Changes in fair value of derivatives not designated as hedges have been recorded as interest expense for all periods.
The table below presents (in thousands) the effect of our derivative instruments on our AOCI and consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30:

Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests in our operating partnership are interests that are not owned by us. Noncontrolling interests represented approximately 16% of our operating partnership at September 30, 2014. A unit in our operating partnership and a share of our common stock have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they share equally in the total net income or loss distributions of our operating partnership. Investors who own units in our operating partnership have the right to cause our operating partnership to redeem any or all of their units in our operating partnership for an amount of cash per unit equal to the then current market value of one share of common stock, or, at our election, shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. Noncontrolling interests also include a one-third interest of a minority partner in a consolidated joint venture which owns an office building in Honolulu, Hawaii.
The table below presents (in thousands) the net income attributable to common stockholders and transfers (to) from the noncontrolling interests:

9. Earnings Per Share (EPS)
We calculate basic EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. We calculate diluted EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests in our consolidated operating partnership for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive instruments outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method.

10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Our estimates of the fair value of financial instruments were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop an estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The FASB fair value framework includes a hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity, and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market-based inputs. The hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 - inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - inputs are observable either directly or indirectly for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.
Level 3 - inputs are unobservable assumptions generated by the reporting entity.
As of September 30, 2014, we did not have any fair value measurements using Level 3 inputs.
Short term financial instruments
The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, deferred rent receivables, revolving credit lines, interest payable, accounts payable and deferred revenue, security deposits and dividends payable, approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
Secured notes receivable
See Notes 4 and 15 for the details of our secured notes receivable. The fair value of our secured notes receivable is determined using Level 2 inputs based on current market interest rates. The carrying value of our secured notes receivable approximates their fair values at September 30, 2014.
Secured notes payable
See Note 5 for the details of our secured notes payable. We calculate the fair value of our secured notes payable by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of the principal and interest payments using current market interest rates (assuming the loans are outstanding through maturity). We determined that the fair value of our secured notes payable is calculated using Level 2 inputs. The table below presents (in thousands) the estimated fair value of our secured notes payable:
|

Secured Notes Payable: | September 30, 2014 | December 31, 2013 |

Derivative instruments
See Note 7 for the details of our derivatives. We present our derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value, on a gross basis, excluding accrued interest, without reflecting any net settlement positions with the same counterparty, using the framework for measuring fair value established by the FASB. The valuation of our interest rate swaps and caps is determined using widely accepted valuation methods, including discounted cash flow analysis of the expected future cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees. We determined that the fair value of our derivatives is calculated using Level 2 inputs. The table below presents (in thousands) the estimated fair value of our derivative liabilities:

11. Future Minimum Lease Receipts
We lease space to tenants primarily under non-cancelable operating leases that generally contain provisions for a base rent plus reimbursement for certain operating expenses. Operating expense reimbursements are reflected in our consolidated statements of operations as tenant recoveries.
We also lease space to certain tenants under non-cancelable leases that provide for percentage rents based upon tenant revenues. Percentage rental income totaled $125 thousand and $162 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $368 thousand and $432 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
The table below presents (in thousands) the future minimum base rentals on our non-cancelable office and ground operating leases at September 30, 2014:

| | | |
Twelve months ending September 30: | |

2019 | 178,563 |
|
Thereafter | 445,366 |
|
Total future minimum base rentals | $ | 1,832,000 |
|
The above future minimum lease receipts exclude residential leases, which typically have a term of one year or less, as well as tenant reimbursements, amortization of deferred rent receivables, and amortization of acquired above/below-market lease intangibles. Some leases are subject to termination options, generally upon payment of a termination fee. The preceding table assumes that these termination options are not exercised.
12. Future Minimum Lease Payments
We currently lease portions of the land underlying two of our office properties. We expensed ground lease payments of $718 thousand and $547 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively and $1.9 million and $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We currently expect to exercise our right to purchase the land involved in one of these two leases in 2015 for a purchase price of $27.5 million. See Note 4. Because we have the ability to exercise our right to purchase this land, we have excluded payments under this lease from the future minimum rent payments in the table below. The table below presents (in thousands) our minimum ground lease payments as of September 30, 2014:

13. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees
Legal Proceedings
We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. Excluding ordinary, routine litigation incidental to our business, we are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that we believe would reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Our properties are located in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii. The ability of our tenants to honor the terms of their respective leases is dependent upon the economic, regulatory and social factors affecting the markets in which the tenants operate. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our tenants for potential credit losses. In addition, we have financial instruments that subject us to credit risk, which consist primarily of accounts receivable, deferred rents receivable and interest rate contracts. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents at high quality financial institutions with investment grade ratings. Interest bearing accounts at each U.S. banking institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250 thousand. To date, we have not experienced any losses on our deposited cash.
Asset Retirement Obligations
Conditional asset retirement obligations represent a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement is conditional on a future event that may or may not be within our control. A liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation must be recorded if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. Environmental site assessments and investigations have identified twenty properties in our consolidated portfolio, and four properties owned by our Funds, which contain asbestos, and would have to be removed in compliance with applicable environmental regulations if these properties undergo major renovations or are demolished. As of September 30, 2014, the obligations to remove the asbestos from these properties have indeterminable settlement dates, and we are unable to reasonably estimate the fair value of the associated conditional asset retirement obligation.
Guarantees
We made certain environmental and other limited indemnities and guarantees covering customary non-recourse carve outs for a $325.0 million loan of one of our Funds. The loan matures on May 1, 2018, and carries interest that is effectively fixed by an interest rate swap which matures on May 1, 2017. We have also guaranteed the related swap. We have an indemnity from the Fund for any amounts that we would be required to pay under these agreements. As of September 30, 2014, the maximum future payments under the swap agreement were approximately $5.1 million. As of September 30, 2014, all obligations under the loan and swap agreements have been performed by the Fund in accordance with the terms of those agreements.
Tenant Concentrations
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, no tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total rental revenue and tenant recoveries.

14. Segment Reporting
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that we review information for operational decision-making purposes. We operate in two business segments: (i) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office real estate and (ii) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate. The services for our office segment primarily include rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The services for our multifamily segment include rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental.
Asset information by segment is not reported because we do not use this measure to assess performance or make decisions to allocate resources. Therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not allocated among segments. General and administrative expenses and interest expense are not included in segment profit as our internal reporting addresses these items on a corporate level.
Segment profit is not a measure of operating income or cash flows from operating activities as measured by GAAP, it is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies may calculate segment profit in the same manner. We consider segment profit to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it can assist both investors and management in understanding the core operations of our properties.
The table below presents (in thousands) the operating activity of our reportable segments:

15. Investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Funds
We own and manage equity interests in two Funds, Fund X and Partnership X, through which we and institutional investors own eight office properties totaling 1.8 million square feet in our core markets. At September 30, 2014, we held capital interests representing 68.61% of Fund X and 24.25% of Partnership X. We received cash distributions from our Funds totaling $3.1 million and $9.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, compared to $2.7 million and $5.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively.
We did not acquire any additional interests in our Funds in 2014. During the first quarter of 2013, we acquired an additional 3.3% interest in Fund X and an additional 0.9% interest in Partnership X from an existing investor for an aggregate of approximately $8.0 million in cash.
Our investment in the Funds includes a note receivable. On April 3, 2013, we loaned $2.9 million to a related party investor in connection with a capital call made by Fund X. The loan carries interest at one month LIBOR plus 2.5%, and is due and payable no later than April 1, 2017, with mandatory prepayments equal to any distributions with respect the related party's interest in Fund X. As of September 30, 2014, the balance outstanding on the loan was $1.8 million.
The tables below present (in thousands) selected financial information for the Funds on a combined basis. The accounting policies of the Funds are consistent with those of the Company. The amounts presented represent 100% (not our pro-rata share) of amounts related to the Funds, and are based upon historical acquired book value:

16. Subsequent events
On October 1, 2014, we closed a $145.0 million interest only five year term loan, with a floating interest rate of one month Libor plus 1.25%. We used $111.9 million of the proceeds to pay off an existing loan that was scheduled to mature on February 1, 2015, and the remaining proceeds for the acquisition mentioned below. See Note 5 for the details of our debt.
On October 16, 2014, we purchased a 216,000 square foot Class “A” multi-tenant office property adjacent to our east Beverly Hills properties for a contract price of $75.3 million, or $348 per square foot. We financed the acquisition with proceeds from the October 1, 2014 loan as well as our revolving credit line.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Report) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as "approximates," "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends," "plans," "would," "could", "may" or other similar expressions in this Report. We claim the protection of the safe harbor contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

• | adverse economic or real estate developments in Southern California and Honolulu, Hawaii; |
| |
• | a general downturn in the economy, such as the global financial crisis that commenced in 2008; |
| |
• | decreased rental rates or increased tenant incentive and vacancy rates; |
| |
• | defaults on, early termination of, or non-renewal of leases by tenants; |
| |
• | increased interest rates and operating costs; |
| |
• | failure to generate sufficient cash flows to service our outstanding indebtedness; |
| |
• | difficulties in raising capital for our institutional funds; |
| |
• | difficulties in identifying properties to acquire and completing acquisitions; |
| |
• | failure to successfully operate acquired properties and operations; |
| |
• | failure to maintain our status as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) under federal tax laws; |
| |
• | possible adverse changes in rent control laws and regulations; |
| |
• | environmental uncertainties; |
| |
• | risks related to natural disasters; |
| |
• | lack or insufficient amount of insurance, or changes to the cost of maintaining existing insurance coverage; |
| |
• | inability to successfully expand into new markets and submarkets; |
| |
• | risks associated with property development; |
| |
• | conflicts of interest with our officers; |
| |
• | changes in real estate zoning laws and increases in real property tax rates; |
| |
• | the negative results of litigation or governmental proceedings; and |
| |
• | the consequences of any possible future terrorist attacks. |
For further discussion of the above and other risk factors, see "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
This Report and all subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Report.
Executive Summary
Douglas Emmett, Inc. is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. We are one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties in Los Angeles County, California and in Honolulu, Hawaii. We focus on owning, acquiring & developing a substantial share of top-tier office properties and premier multifamily communities in neighborhoods that possess significant supply constraints, high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities.
Through our interest in Douglas Emmett Properties, LP (our operating partnership) and its subsidiaries, including investments in our unconsolidated Funds, we own or partially own, manage, lease, acquire and develop real estate, consisting primarily of office and multifamily properties. As of September 30, 2014:
| |
• | Our consolidated portfolio of properties included fifty-two Class A office properties (including ancillary retail space) totaling approximately 13.3 million rentable square feet, nine multifamily properties including 2,868 apartment units, as well as the fee interests in two parcels of land subject to ground leases. |
| |
• | Our total office portfolio consisted of sixty Class A office properties aggregating approximately 15.1 million rentable square feet, consisting of both our consolidated office properties and eight office properties owned by our Funds (in which we own a weighted average of 60% based on square footage). |
| |
• | Our consolidated office portfolio was 92.0% leased and 89.5% occupied and our total office portfolio was 92.5% leased and 89.7% occupied. |
| |
• | Our multifamily properties were 99.7% leased and 98.6% occupied. |
| |
• | Approximately 85.2% of the annualized rent of our consolidated portfolio was derived from our office properties and the remaining 14.8% from our multifamily properties. |
| |
• | Approximately 85.7% of the annualized rent of our consolidated portfolio was derived from our Los Angeles County office and multifamily properties and the remaining 14.3% from our Honolulu, Hawaii office and multifamily properties. |
Financings, Acquisitions, Dispositions, Development and Repositionings
Development: We are developing two multifamily projects, one in Brentwood, Los Angeles, and one in Honolulu, Hawaii. Each development is on land which we already own:
| |
• | We expect to break ground on an additional 500 apartments at our Moanalua Hillside Apartments in Honolulu in December 2014. Construction should take approximately 18 months and cost approximately $120 million, which includes the cost of upgrading the existing 696 apartments and building a brand new community center. |
| |
• | In Los Angeles, we are seeking to build a high rise apartment project with 376 apartments. Because development in our markets, particularly West Los Angeles, remains a long and uncertain process, even if successful, we would not expect to break ground in Los Angeles before late 2015. We expect the cost of this development to be approximately |
$100 million to $120 million.
Financings:
| |
• | During the first quarter of 2014, we refinanced a $16.1 million loan that was scheduled to mature on March 3, 2014, lowering the interest rate to LIBOR + 1.60% and extending the maturity date to March 1, 2016. See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report. |
| |
• | On October 1, 2014, we closed a $145.0 million interest only five year term loan, with a floating interest rate of one month LIBOR plus 1.25%. We used $111.9 million of the proceeds to pay off an existing loan and the remaining proceeds for an acquisition. See Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report. |
Acquisitions and Dispositions:
| |
• | During the second quarter of 2014, we acquired a very small land parcel in connection with our Moanalua apartment development project. |
| |
• | On October 16, 2014, we purchased a 216,000 square foot Class "A" multi-tenant office property, located at 6310 & 6330 San Vicente Boulevard adjacent to Douglas Emmett's East Beverly Hills office properties for a total contract price of $75.3 million, or approximately $348 per square foot. See Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report. |
Repositionings: We often strategically purchase properties with large vacancies or expected near-term lease roll-over and use our knowledge of the property and submarket to reposition the property for the optimal use and tenant mix. The work we undertake to reposition a building typically takes months or even years, and could involve a range of improvements from a complete structural renovation to a targeted remodeling of selected spaces. We generally select a property for repositioning at the time we purchase it, although repositioning efforts can also occur at properties that we already own. During the repositioning, the affected property may display depressed rental revenue and occupancy levels which impacts our results and, therefore, comparisons of our performance from period to period. We are currently repositioning a 79,000 square foot office property in Honolulu in which we own a two-thirds interest.
Historical Results of Operations
Overview
Our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 consisted of the rental operations of fifty-two consolidated office properties and nine consolidated multifamily properties, compared to fifty consolidated office properties, including one property acquired on May 15, 2013, and one property acquired on August 15, 2013, and nine consolidated multifamily properties during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.
Our share of earnings from our unconsolidated Funds, which owned an additional eight office properties for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, is included in income, including depreciation, from unconsolidated real estate funds. We did not acquire any additional interests in our Funds in 2014. During the first quarter of 2013, we acquired an additional 3.3% interest in Fund X, and an additional 0.9% interest in Partnership X. See Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report.
Funds From Operations
Many investors use Funds From Operations (FFO) as a performance metric to compare the operating performance of REITs. FFO represents net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, impairments of depreciable operating property and investments, real estate depreciation and amortization (other than amortization of deferred financing costs), and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT).
Like any metric, FFO has limitations as a measure of our performance, because it excludes depreciation and amortization, and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations. Other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, which means that our FFO may not be comparable to the FFO of other REITs. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of cash available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends. FFO should not be used as a supplement to or substitute measure for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP.
FFO for the three months ended September 30, 2014 decreased by $1.3 million, or 2.1%, to $62.7 million compared to $64.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to lower operating income from our office portfolio due to lower rental revenues and higher operating expenses, the reasons for which are discussed in the Comparison of Results section below. FFO for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased by $7.1 million, or 3.6%, to $203.0 million compared to $195.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to (i) increased operating income from our multifamily portfolio due to higher rents, (ii) insurance recoveries that we received related to property damage from a fire at one of our residential properties and (iii) a decrease in interest expense as a result of lower debt balances.
The table below (in thousands) is a reconciliation of our FFO to net income attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with GAAP:

Rental Rate Trends
Office Rental Rates: The table below presents the average effective annual rental rate per leased square foot, and the annualized lease transaction costs, for leases executed in our total office portfolio:
|
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | Nine Months Ended | | Twelve Months Ended December 31, |
Historical straight-line rents:(1) | | September 30, 2014 | | 2013 | | 2012 | | 2011 | | 2010 |
| | | | | | | | | | |
Average rental rate(2) | | $35.17 | | $34.72 | | $32.86 | | $32.76 | | $32.33 |
Annualized lease transaction costs(3) | | $4.48 | | $4.16 | | $4.06 | | $3.64 | | $3.68 |
___________________________________________________
| |
(1) | Because straight-line rent takes into account the full economic value of each lease, including accommodations and rent escalations, we believe that it may provide a better comparison than ending cash rents, which include the impact of the annual escalations over the entire term of the lease. However, care should be taken in any comparison, as the averages are often significantly affected from period to period by factors such as the buildings, submarkets, types of space and term involved in the leases executed during the period. |
| |
(2) | Represents the weighted average straight-line annualized base rent (i.e., excludes tenant reimbursements, parking and other revenue) per leased square foot for leases entered into within our total office portfolio. For our triple net Burbank and Honolulu office properties, annualized rent is calculated by adding expense reimbursements to base rent. |
| |
(3) | Represents the weighted average leasing commissions and tenant improvement allowances under each office lease within our total office portfolio that were executed during the applicable period, divided by the number of years of that lease. This number increased as a result of increased leasing to larger tenants, in submarkets with more vacancy, and in larger to lease spaces throughout our portfolio. |
During the third quarter of 2014, we experienced positive rent roll up, with the average straight-line rent of $35.19 under new and renewal leases that we signed in the quarter averaging 10.8% greater than the average straight-line rent of $31.75 under the expiring leases for the same space. This improvement reflects both (i) continuing increases in average starting rental rates, and (ii) more leases containing annual rent escalations in excess of 3% per annum. Quarterly fluctuations in submarkets, buildings and term of the expiring leases make predicting the changes in rent in any specific quarter difficult.
Our average starting cash rental rate on new leases of $34.42 signed during the third quarter of 2014 was 12.9% greater than the average starting cash rental rate on the expiring leases for the same space of $30.48, although, as a result of our high annual rent escalations, less than the average ending cash rental rate of $34.70 on those expiring leases. However, net changes in our office rental rates did not have a significant impact on our cash revenues in recent periods, as the negative effect of cash rent roll downs, which affect approximately 11 to 16 percent of our office portfolio each year, are generally offset by the positive impact of the annual cash rent escalations in virtually all of our continuing in-place office leases.
Over the next four quarters, we expect to see expiring cash rents in our total office portfolio as presented in the table below:
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ending |
Expiring cash rents: | | December 31, 2014 | | March 31, 2015 | | June 30, 2015 | | September 30, 2015 |
| | | | | | | | |
Expiring square feet (1) | | 213,805 |
| | 331,223 |
| | 490,910 |

____________________________________________________
| |
(1) | Includes scheduled expirations for our total office portfolio, including our consolidated portfolio of fifty-two properties totaling 13.3 million square feet, as well as eight properties totaling 1.8 million square feet owned by our Funds. Expiring square footage reflects all existing leases that are scheduled to expire in the respective quarter shown above, excluding the square footage under leases where (i) the existing tenant has renewed the lease prior to September 30, 2014, (ii) a new tenant has executed a lease on or before September 30, 2014 that will commence after September 30, 2014, (iii) early termination options are exercised after September 30, 2014, (iv) defaults occurring after September 30, 2014, and (v) short term leases, such as month to month leases and other short term leases. Short term leases are excluded because (i) they are not included in our changes in rental rate data, (ii) have rental rates that may not be reflective of market conditions, and (iii) can distort the data trends, particularly in the first upcoming quarter. The variations in this number from quarter to quarter primarily reflects the mix of buildings/submarkets involved, although it is also impacted by the varying terms and square footage of the individual leases involved. |
| |
(2) | Represents annualized base rent (i.e., excludes tenant reimbursements, parking and other revenue) per leased square foot at expiration. The amount reflects total cash base rent before abatements. For our Burbank and Honolulu office properties, we calculate annualized base rent for triple net leases by adding expense reimbursements to base rent. Expiring rent per square foot on a quarterly basis is impacted by a number of variables, including variations in the submarkets or buildings involved. |
Multifamily Rental Rates: With respect to our residential properties, our average rent on leases to new tenants during the third quarter of 2014 was 7.5% higher than the rent for the same unit at the time it became vacant. The table below presents the average effective annual rental rate per leased unit for leases executed in our residential portfolio:

Comparison of three months ended September 30, 2014 to three months ended September 30, 2013
Revenues
Office Rental Revenue: Rental revenue includes rental revenues from our office properties, percentage rent on the retail space contained within office properties and lease termination income. Total office rental revenue decreased by $2.3 million, or 2.3%, to $97.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $99.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in rental revenue of $3.2 million for the properties that we owned throughout both years, partly offset by an increase in rental revenue of $0.9 million from properties that we acquired in the second and third quarters of 2013. The decrease in rental revenue from properties that we owned throughout both years was primarily due to a decease in our revenues on a straight line basis of $2.3 million, as well as a decrease in the net accretion of above- and below-market leases of $0.7 million. Our revenues on a straight line basis, and the net accretion of above- and below-market leases, has generally been declining since our IPO, and we expect that overall trend to continue, although we expect to recognize an additional estimated $8.8 million of non-cash revenues from the net accretion of above- and below-market leases in 2014 and 2015 as a result of the purchase of the land under one of our buildings. See Notes 4 and Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report.
Office Tenant Recoveries: Total office tenant recoveries decreased by $0.8 million, or 6.52%, to $11.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $11.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in recoveries for the properties that we owned throughout both years, which primarily reflects lower occupancy as well as lower income from prior period reconciliations.
Office Parking and Other Income: Office parking and other income increased by $0.7 million, or 3.9%, to $19.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $18.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $0.6 million in parking and other income from properties that we owned during both periods, as well as an increase in parking and other income of $0.1 million from properties that we acquired in the second and third quarters of 2013. The increase in parking and other income for the properties that we owned throughout both years reflects increases in both rates and utilization.
Multifamily Revenue: Total multifamily revenue consists of rent, parking income and other income. Total multifamily revenue increased by $0.8 million, or 4.3%, to $20.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $19.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was due to increases in rental rates.
Operating Expenses
Office Rental Expenses: Total office rental expenses increased by $1.1 million, or 2.5%, to $47.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $46.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to office rental expenses of $0.4 million for properties that we acquired in the second and third quarters of 2013, as well as an increase in office rental expenses of $0.7 million from properties that we owned throughout both years. The increase in office rental expenses for the properties that we owned throughout both periods primarily reflects higher utilities expense.
Multifamily Rental Expenses: Total multifamily rental expense increased by $0.1 million, or 2.0%, to $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $5.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase reflects higher utilities.
General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses increased by $0.1 million, or 1.7%, to $6.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $6.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase of $0.1 million was due to a variety of factors, including a decrease in legal accruals in 2013.
Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $2.7 million, or 5.7%, to $50.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $47.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to depreciation and amortization of $2.3 million from properties that we owned during both periods, as well as an increase in depreciation and amortization of $0.4 million from properties that we acquired in the second and third quarters of 2013. The increase in depreciation and amortization for the properties that we owned throughout both years reflects accelerated depreciation of a building for a property in Los Angeles that we plan on redeveloping in 2015.
Non-Operating Income and Expenses
Other Income and Other Expenses: Other income increased by $1.6 million, or 76.3% to $3.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, and other expenses increased by $0.6 million, or 41.4% to $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase in other income was primarily due to $1.3 million of insurance recoveries related to property repairs for damage from a fire at one of our residential properties, as well as an increase of $0.2 million in revenues from a health club at one of our office properties in Honolulu that we commenced operating in the second quarter of 2013.
Income, Including Depreciation, from Unconsolidated Real Estate Funds: The income, including depreciation, from unconsolidated real estate funds represents our equity interest in the operating results of our Funds, including the operating income net of historical cost-basis depreciation. Our share of the income, including depreciation, from our Funds was $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in operating expenses for our Funds, reflecting increases in scheduled services, utilities expense and property taxes.
Interest Expense: Interest expense decreased by $0.5 million, or 1.5%, to $32.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $32.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to lower cash interest expense as result of lower debt balances. See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report.
Comparison of nine months ended September 30, 2014 to nine months ended September 30, 2013
Revenues
Office Rental Revenue: Total office rental revenue increased by $0.1 million, or 0.0%, to $296.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $296.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to an increase in rental revenue of $6.6 million from properties that we acquired in the second and third quarters of 2013, partly offset by a decrease in rental revenue of $6.5 million from the properties that we owned throughout both years. The decrease in rental revenue from properties that we owned throughout both years was primarily due to a decease in our revenues on a straight line basis of $5.5 million and a decrease from the net accretion of above- and below-market leases of $2.3 million, largely as the result of the ongoing expiration of leases in place at the time of our IPO.
Office Tenant Recoveries: Total office tenant recoveries decreased by $0.5 million, or 1.3%, to $33.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $34.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in recoveries of $0.6 million from the properties that we owned throughout both years, partly offset by an increase in recoveries of $0.1 million from properties that we acquired in the second and third quarters of 2013. The decrease from the properties that we owned throughout both years primarily reflects lower occupancy in certain buildings as well as lower income from prior period reconciliations.
Office Parking and Other Income: Office parking and other income increased by $2.6 million, or 4.6%, to $58.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $56.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $1.5 million in parking and other income from properties that we owned throughout both years, as well as an increase in parking and other income of $1.1 million from properties that we acquired in the second and third quarters of 2013. The increase in parking and other income for the properties we owned throughout both years reflects higher parking cash revenue primarily due to increases in rates as well as higher utilization.
Multifamily Revenue: Total multifamily revenue consists of rent, parking income and other income. Total multifamily revenue increased by $2.4 million, or 4.2%, to $59.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $57.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was due to to increases in rental rates.
Operating Expenses
Office Rental Expenses: Total office rental expenses increased by $5.1 million, or 3.9%, to $135.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $130.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to an increase in office rental expenses of $3.0 million for properties that we acquired in the second and in the third quarters of 2013, as well as an increase in office rental expenses of $2.1 million from properties that we owned throughout both years. The increase in office rental expenses for the properties that we owned throughout both years primarily reflects higher utilities expense.
Multifamily Rental Expenses: Total multifamily rental expense increased by $0.4 million, or 2.5%, to $15.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $15.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase reflects higher utilities expense.
General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses decreased by $0.5 million, or 2.6% to $20.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $20.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in employee and director equity compensation expense, as well as a decrease in employee compensation expense.
Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $9.7 million, or 6.9%, to $151.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $141.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to depreciation and amortization of $6.8 million from properties that we owned throughout both periods, as well as depreciation and amortization of $2.9 million from properties that we acquired in the second and third quarters of 2013. The increase in depreciation and amortization for the properties that we owned throughout both years reflects accelerated depreciation of a building for a property in Los Angeles that we plan on redeveloping in 2015.
Non-Operating Income and Expenses
Other Income and Other Expenses: Other income increased by $8.5 million, or 203.5% to $12.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $4.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and other expenses increased by $2.3 million, or 84.2% to $5.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase in other income was primarily due to $6.1 million of insurance recoveries for property repairs related to a fire at one of our residential properties. Other income also increased due to the inclusion of the revenues of a health club at one of our office properties in Honolulu commencing in the second quarter of 2013. The increase in other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 similarly reflects the inclusion of the expenses for the health club.
Income, Including Depreciation, from Unconsolidated Real Estate Funds: Our share of the income, including depreciation, from our Funds was $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to higher interest expense of one of our Funds.
Interest Expense: Interest expense decreased by $1.9 million, or 2.0%, to $95.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $97.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to lower cash interest expense as result of lower debt balances. See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
We have typically financed our capital needs through lines of credit and long-term secured mortgages. We had total indebtedness of $3.21 billion at September
