EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2017 of Brixmor Property Group Inc. and Brixmor Operating Partnership LP. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to the “Parent Company” or “BPG” mean Brixmor Property Group Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries; and references to the “Operating Partnership” mean Brixmor Operating Partnership LP and its consolidated subsidiaries. The terms the “Company,” “Brixmor,” “we,” “our” and “us” mean the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, collectively.

The Parent Company is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) which owns 100% of the common stock of BPG Subsidiary Inc. (“BPG Sub”), which, in turn, is the sole owner of Brixmor OP GP LLC (the "General Partner"), the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. As of September 30, 2017, the Parent Company beneficially owned, through its direct and indirect interest in BPG Sub and the General Partner, 100% of the outstanding partnership common units of interest (the “OP Units”) in the Operating Partnership.

The Company believes combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:


•	Enhances investors’ understanding of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;


•	Eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation; and


•	Creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

Management operates the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of the Parent Company consists of the same individuals as the management of the Operating Partnership. These individuals are officers of both the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership.

We believe it is important to understand the few differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. The Parent Company is a REIT, whose only material asset is its indirect interest in the Operating Partnership. As a result, the Parent Company does not conduct business itself other than issuing public equity from time to time. The Parent Company does not incur any material indebtedness. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of our assets. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by the Parent Company, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP Units, the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by the Company’s business. Sources of this capital include the Operating Partnership’s operations, its direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness, and the issuance of OP Units.

Stockholders’ equity, partners’ capital, and non-controlling interests are the primary areas of difference between the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and those of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership’s capital currently includes OP Units owned by the Parent Company through BPG Sub and the General Partner and has in the past and may in the future include OP Units owned by third parties. OP Units owned by third parties, if any, are accounted for in partners’ capital in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements and outside of stockholders’ equity in non-controlling interests in the Parent Company’s financial statements.

In order to highlight the differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, there are sections in this report that separately discuss the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, including separate financial statements (but combined footnotes), separate controls and procedures sections, separate certification of periodic report under Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and separate certification pursuant to 18 U.S.C Section 1350 as adopted pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In the sections that combine disclosure for the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the Company.

The Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the Parent Company does not have material assets other than its indirect investment in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, while stockholders’ equity, partners’ capital and non-controlling interests may differ as discussed above, the assets and liabilities of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership are materially the same on their respective financial statements.

BRIXMOR PROPERTY GROUP INC. AND BRIXMOR OPERATING PARTNERSHIP LP

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited, dollars in thousands, unless otherwise stated)

1. Nature of Business and Financial Statement Presentation

Description of Business

Brixmor Property Group Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Parent Company”) is an internally-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Brixmor Operating Partnership LP and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Operating Partnership”) is the entity through which the Parent Company conducts substantially all of its operations and owns substantially all of its assets. The Parent Company owns 100% of the common stock of BPG Subsidiary Inc. (“BPG Sub”), which, in turn, is the sole member of Brixmor OP GP LLC (the “General Partner”), the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company engages in the ownership, management, leasing, acquisition, disposition and redevelopment of retail shopping centers through the Operating Partnership, and has no other substantial assets or liabilities other than through its investment in the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company, the Operating Partnership and their controlled subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (collectively the “Company” or “Brixmor”) believes it owns and operates one of the largest open air retail portfolios by gross leasable area ("GLA") in the United States, comprised primarily of community and neighborhood shopping centers. As of September 30, 2017, the Company's portfolio was comprised of 498 wholly owned shopping centers totaling approximately 84 million square feet of gross leasable area (the “Portfolio”). In addition, the Company has one land parcel currently under development. The Company’s high-quality national Portfolio is primarily located within established trade areas in the top 50 Metropolitan Statistical Areas, and our shopping centers are primarily anchored by non-discretionary and value-oriented retailers, as well as consumer-oriented service providers.

The Company does not distinguish its principal business or group its operations on a geographical basis for purposes of measuring performance. Accordingly, the Company has a single reportable segment for disclosure purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented have been included. The Company has determined that it is preferable to present underwriter fees associated with the Company’s issuance of unsecured senior notes in the line item Deferred financing costs as opposed to deducting the amount of the fees within the line item Proceeds from unsecured term loans and notes within financing activities in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. In connection with this revised presentation, certain prior period balances have been adjusted to conform to the current period presentation described above. The operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 and accompanying notes included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 13, 2017.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Parent Company, the Operating Partnership, each of their wholly owned subsidiaries and all other entities in which they have a controlling financial interest. The portions of consolidated entities not owned by the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership are presented as non-controlling interests as of and during the periods presented. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Real Estate

Real estate assets are recognized in the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at historical cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Upon acquisition of real estate operating properties, management estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets (consisting of land, buildings, and tenant improvements), identifiable intangible assets and liabilities (consisting of above and below-market leases, in-place leases and tenant relationships) and assumed debt based on an evaluation of available information. Based on these estimates, the estimated fair value

- 15 -

is allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. Transaction costs incurred during the acquisition process are capitalized as a component of the asset’s value.

The fair value of tangible assets is determined as if the acquired property is vacant. Fair value is determined using an exit price approach, which contemplates the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. If subsequent information regarding the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is received and estimates are refined, the appropriate adjustments are made to the purchase price allocation on a prospective basis.

In allocating the fair value to identifiable intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired operating property, the value of above-market and below-market leases is estimated based on the present value (using a discount rate reflecting the risks associated with leases acquired) of the difference between: (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the leases negotiated and in-place at the time of acquisition and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the property or an equivalent property, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease, which includes renewal periods with fixed rental terms that are considered to be below-market. The capitalized above-market or below-market intangible is amortized as a reduction of, or increase to, rental income over the remaining non-cancelable term of each lease.

In determining the value of in-place leases and tenant relationships, management evaluates the specific characteristics of each lease and the Company’s overall relationship with each tenant. Factors considered include, but are not limited to: the nature of the existing relationship with a tenant, the credit risk associated with a tenant, expectations surrounding lease renewals, estimated carrying costs of a property during a hypothetical expected lease-up period, current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. Management also considers information obtained about a property in connection with its pre-acquisition due diligence. Estimated carrying costs include: property operating costs, insurance, real estate taxes and estimates of lost rentals at market rates. Costs to execute similar leases include leasing commissions and legal costs to the extent that such costs are not already incurred with a new lease that has been negotiated in connection with the purchase of a property. The values assigned to in-place leases and tenant relationships are amortized to Depreciation and amortization expense over the remaining term of each lease.

Certain real estate assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows:



Building and building and land improvements	20 - 40 years
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment	5 - 10 years
Tenant improvements	The shorter of the term of the related lease or useful life

Costs to fund major replacements and betterments, which extend the life of the asset, are capitalized and depreciated over their respective useful lives, while costs for ordinary repairs and maintenance activities are expensed as incurred.

When a real estate asset is identified by management as held-for-sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the asset and estimates its sales price, net of estimated selling costs. If the estimated net sales price of an asset is less than its net carrying value, a loss is recognized to reflect the estimated fair value. Properties classified as real estate held-for-sale generally represent properties that are under contract for sale and are expected to close within 12 months.

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are indicators, including property operating performance, changes in anticipated holding period and general market conditions, that the value of the Company’s real estate assets (including any related intangible assets or liabilities) may be impaired.

If an indicator is identified, a real estate asset is considered impaired only if management’s estimate of current and projected operating cash flows (undiscounted and unleveraged), taking into account the anticipated and probability weighted holding period, are less than a real estate asset’s carrying value. Various factors are considered in the estimation process, including trends and prospects and the effects of demand, competition, and other economic factors. Changes in any estimates and/or assumptions, including the anticipated holding period, could have a material impact on the projected operating cash flows. If management determines that the carrying value of a real estate asset is impaired, a loss is recognized for the excess of its carrying amount over its fair value.

- 16 -

In situations in which a lease or leases associated with a significant tenant have been, or are expected to be, terminated early, the Company evaluates the remaining useful lives of depreciable or amortizable assets in the asset group related to the lease that will be terminated (i.e., tenant improvements, above and below market lease intangibles, in-place lease value and leasing commissions). Based upon consideration of the facts and circumstances surrounding the termination, the Company may accelerate the depreciation and amortization associated with the asset group.

Income Taxes

The Parent Company has elected to qualify as a REIT in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). To qualify as a REIT, the Parent Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, to its stockholders. It is management’s intention to adhere to these requirements and maintain the Parent Company’s REIT status.

As a REIT, the Parent Company generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax, provided that distributions to its stockholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. If the Parent Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years.

On April 3, 2017, BPG Sub’s status as a REIT terminated when BPG Sub became a disregarded subsidiary of the Parent Company for United States federal income tax purposes. Prior to its termination of REIT status, BPG Sub had also elected to qualify as a REIT under the Code and was subject to the same tax requirements and tax treatment as the Parent Company.

The Parent Company and BPG Sub have formed taxable REIT subsidiaries, and the Parent Company may in the future elect to treat newly formed subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries which would be subject to income tax. Taxable REIT subsidiaries may participate in non-real estate-related activities and/or perform non-customary services for tenants and are subject to United States federal and state income tax at regular corporate tax rates.

The Operating Partnership is organized as a limited partnership and is generally not subject to federal income tax. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been reflected in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Operating Partnership, however, may be subject to certain state and local income taxes or franchise taxes.

The Company has analyzed the tax position taken on income tax returns for the open 2013 through 2017 tax years and has concluded that no provision for income taxes related to uncertain tax positions is required in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-12 "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)." ASU 2017-12 amends guidance to more closely align the results of cash flow and fair value hedge accounting with risk management activities through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results in the financial statements. The standard is effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-12 to have a material impact on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718)." ASU 2017-09 clarifies guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. The standard is effective on January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-09 to have a material impact on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, "Business Combinations (Topic 805)." ASU 2017-01 clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The new guidance will result in many real estate transactions being classified as an asset acquisition and transaction costs being capitalized. The standard is effective on January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2017-01 was early adopted by the Company on

- 17 -

January 1, 2017. As a result of adopting ASU 2017-01 the Company has begun capitalizing transaction costs associated with the acquisition of real estate assets. During the three months ended September 30, 2017, the Company did not capitalize any transaction costs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company capitalized $0.4 million of transaction costs. The Company determined that these amounts did not have a material impact on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)." ASU 2016-18 requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective on January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2016-18 was early adopted by the Company on January 1, 2017. As a result of adopting ASU 2016-18 the Company now presents the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows inclusive of restricted cash balances and also provides a reconciliation to the cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash amounts presented on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company determined that these changes did not have a material impact on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)." ASU 2016-15 provides classification guidance for certain cash receipts and cash payments including payment of debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments, insurance claim payments and distributions from equity method investees. The standard is effective on January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-15 to have a material impact on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718)." ASU 2016-09 sets out amendments to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new standard impacts certain aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statements of cash flows. The new standard became effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. As a result of adopting ASU 2016-09 the Company has elected to account for share-based award forfeitures on an actual basis as opposed to the use of an estimated forfeiture rate. The Company determined these changes did not have a material impact on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." ASU 2016-02 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e., lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. The pronouncement requires a modified retrospective method of adoption and is effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company will continue to evaluate the effect the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. However, the Company currently believes that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will not have a material impact for operating leases where it is a lessor and will continue to record revenues from rental properties for its operating leases on a straight-line basis. However, for leases where the Company is a lessee, primarily for the Company’s ground leases and administrative office leases, the Company will be required to record a lease liability and a right of use asset on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value upon adoption. In addition, direct internal leasing overhead costs will continue to be capitalized, however, indirect internal leasing overhead costs previously capitalized will be expensed under ASU 2016-02.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2014-09 contains a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The guidance in ASU 2014-09 affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into

- 18 -

contracts for the transfer of non-financial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of 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. The pronouncement allows either a full or modified retrospective method of adoption and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. A majority of the Company’s tenant-related revenue is recognized pursuant to lease agreements and will be governed by the recently issued leasing guidance discussed above. The Company continues to evaluate the effect the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s other sources of revenue. These include reimbursement amounts the Company receives from tenants for operating expenses such as real estate taxes, insurance and other common area expenses. However, the Company currently does not believe the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will significantly affect the timing of the recognition of the Company’s reimbursement revenue.

Any other recently issued accounting standards or pronouncements not disclosed above have been excluded as they either are not relevant to the Company, or they are not expected to have a material effect on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

The Company had two properties held for sale as of September 30, 2016 with a carrying value of $24.1 million . In connection with these properties becoming held for sale, the Company recognized a $2.0 million impairment to reduce the carrying value of one of the properties to its estimated net realizable value. The impairment charge was based upon the sales price in the signed contract with the third party buyer, adjusted to reflect associated disposition costs.

There were no discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 as none of the dispositions represented a strategic shift in the Company's business that would qualify as discontinued operations.

5. Impairments

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators, including property operating performance, changes in anticipated holding period and general market conditions, that the value of the Company’s real estate assets (including any related intangible assets or liabilities) may be impaired. If management determines that the carrying value of a real estate asset is impaired, a loss is recognized for the excess of its carrying amount over its fair value.

6. Financial Instruments - Derivatives and Hedging

The Company’s use of derivative instruments is limited to the utilization of interest rate agreements or other instruments to manage interest rate risk exposures and not for speculative purposes. In certain situations, the Company may enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swap and interest rate cap agreements that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without changing the underlying notional amount. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company did not enter into any new interest rate swap agreements. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company entered into nine forward starting interest rate swap agreements (the “Swaps”) with an effective date of November 1, 2016 and an aggregate notional value of $1.4 billion to partially hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable LIBOR based interest rate debt.

- 22 -

Detail of the Company’s interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges outstanding as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 is as follows:



	Number of Instruments		Notional Amount
	September 30, 2017	December 31, 2016	September 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Interest Rate Swaps	9	9	$	1,400,000	$	1,400,000

The Company has elected to present its interest rate derivatives on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets on a gross basis as interest rate swap assets and interest rate swap liabilities. Detail on the Company’s fair value of interest rate derivatives on a gross and net basis as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, is as follows:



	Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
Interest rate swaps classified as:	September 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Gross derivative assets	$	20,171	$	21,605
Gross derivative liabilities	—		—
Net derivative assets	$	20,171	$	21,605

The gross derivative assets are included in Other assets and the gross derivative liabilities are included in Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. All of the Company’s outstanding interest rate swap agreements for the periods presented were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. The fair value of the Company's interest rate derivatives is determined using market standard valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected 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. These inputs are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as, and that qualify as, cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and is reclassified into earnings as interest expense in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.

The effective portion of the Company's interest rate swaps that was recognized in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:



Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships (Interest Rate Swaps)	Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2017			2016		2017			2016
Change in unrealized gain (loss) on interest rate swaps	$	132		$	79	$	(532	)	$	(1,704	)
Amortization of interest rate swaps to interest expense	(1,094		)	1,242		(902		)	4,117
Change in unrealized gain (loss) on interest rate swaps, net	$	(962	)	$	1,321	$	(1,434	)	$	2,413

The Company estimates that $7.0 million will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income as a decrease to interest expense over the next twelve months. No gain or loss was recognized related to hedge ineffectiveness or to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing on the Company’s cash flow hedges during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Non-Designated (Mark-to Market) Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company did not have any non-designated hedges.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

The Company has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain a provision whereby if the Company defaults on certain of its indebtedness and the indebtedness has been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. If the Company were to breach any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contracts, it would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value including accrued interest.

2017 Debt Transactions

In March 2017, the Operating Partnership issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.90% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), the proceeds of which were utilized to repay outstanding indebtedness, including borrowings under the Company's Unsecured Credit Facility, and for general corporate purposes. The 2027 Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.90% per annum, payable semi-annually on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing September 15, 2017. The 2027 Notes will mature on March 15, 2027. The 2027 Notes are the Operating Partnership’s unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Operating Partnership’s existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The Operating Partnership may redeem the 2027 Notes at any time in whole or from time to time in part at the applicable make-whole redemption price specified in the Indenture with respect to the 2027 Notes. If the 2027 Notes are redeemed on or after December 15, 2026 (three months prior to the maturity date), the redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2027 Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date.

- 24 -

In June 2017, the Operating Partnership issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.65% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”), the proceeds of which were utilized to repay outstanding indebtedness, including borrowings under the Company's Unsecured Credit Facility, and for general corporate purposes. The 2024 Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.65% per annum, payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing December 15, 2017. The 2024 Notes will mature on June 15, 2024. The 2024 Notes are the Operating Partnership’s unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Operating Partnership’s existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The Operating Partnership may redeem the 2024 Notes at any time in whole or from time to time in part at the applicable make-whole redemption price specified in the Indenture with respect to the 2024 Notes. If the 2024 Notes are redeemed on or after April 15, 2024 (two months prior to the maturity date), the redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2024 Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date.

In July 2017, the Operating Partnership entered into a $300.0 million variable rate unsecured term loan facility (the "$300 Million Term Loan"). The $300 Million Term Loan has a seven -year term maturing on July 26, 2024, with no available extension options, and bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 190 basis points (based on the Operating Partnership’s current credit ratings). Proceeds from the $300 Million Term Loan were used to prepay $300.0 million of an unsecured term loan under the Company's Unsecured Credit Facility maturing July 31, 2018.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company repaid $380.3 million of secured loans and $790.0 million of an unsecured term loan under the Company's Unsecured Credit Facility, resulting in a $0.5 million gain on extinguishment of debt, net.

8. Fair Value Disclosures

All financial instruments of the Company are reflected in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at amounts which, in management’s judgment, reasonably approximate their fair values, except those instruments listed below:



	September 30, 2017				December 31, 2016
	Carrying Amounts		Fair Value		Carrying Amounts		Fair Value
	Carrying Amounts		Fair Value		Carrying Amounts		Fair Value
Secured loans	$	932,589	$	989,296	$	1,337,094	$	1,410,698
Notes payable	3,181,182		3,231,275		2,291,954		2,302,048
Unsecured Credit Facility and Term Loans	1,599,917		1,611,802		2,209,841		2,223,807
Total debt obligations, net	$	5,713,688	$	5,832,373	$	5,838,889	$	5,936,553

As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, a fair value hierarchy is included in GAAP that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs that are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

The valuation methodology used to estimate the fair value of the Company’s debt obligations is based on a discounted cash flow analysis, with assumptions that include credit spreads, estimated property values, loan amounts and debt maturities. The Company determined that the valuations of its debt obligations are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Such fair value estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized upon disposition.

Recurring Fair Value

The Company’s marketable securities and interest rate derivatives are measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of marketable securities are based primarily on publicly traded market values in active markets and are classified within Level 1 or 2 of the fair value hierarchy. See Note 6 for fair value information regarding the Company's interest rate derivatives.

The following table presents the placement in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis:



	Fair Value Measurements as of September 30, 2017

Non-Recurring Fair Value

On a non-recurring basis, the Company evaluates the carrying value of its properties when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Fair value is determined by purchase price offers, market comparable data, third party appraisals or by discounted cash flow analysis using the income approach. These cash flows are comprised of unobservable inputs which include forecasted rental revenue and expenses based upon market conditions and future expectations. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are based upon unobservable rates that we believe to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties. Based on these inputs, the Company has determined that the valuation of these properties is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following table presents the placement in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The table includes information related to properties remeasured to fair value as a result of impairment testing:



	Fair Value Measurements as of September 30, 2017

⁽¹⁾

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized $15.3 million of impairment based upon offers from third party buyers and $12.1 million of impairment based upon a discounted cash flow analysis. The discounted cash flow analysis included all estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. These cash flows were comprised of unobservable inputs which include forecasted revenues and expenses based upon market conditions and future expectations. The capitalization rates (ranging from 7.0% to 8.5% ) and discount rates (ranging from 7.9% to 9.5% ) which were utilized in the analysis were based upon unobservable rates that the Company believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for each respective investment.

⁽²⁾

The carrying value of properties remeasured to fair value during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 include: (i) $7.8 million related to The Plaza at Salmon Run, (ii) $1.9 million related to Smith's, (iii) $46.9 million related to The Manchester Collection, (iv) $4.7 million related to Lexington Road Plaza, (v) $3.8 million related to Shops at Seneca Mall, (vi) $2.2 million related to Remount Village Shopping Center, and (vii) $2.4 million related to Fashion Square.


⁽³⁾	The carrying value of properties remeasured to fair value during the year ended December 31, 2016 include: (i) $0.1 million related to a parcel at Country Hills Shopping Center and (ii) $0.2 million related to Milford Center.

9. Equity and Capital

ATM

In 2015, the Parent Company entered into an at-the-market equity offering program (“ATM”) through which the Parent Company may sell from time to time up to an aggregate of $400.0 million of its common stock through sales agents over a three-year period. No shares have been issued under the ATM and as result $400.0 million of common stock remained available for issuance under the ATM as of September 30, 2017.

Common Stock

In connection with the vesting of restricted stock units ("RSUs") under the Company's equity-based compensation plan, the Company withholds shares to satisfy statutory minimum tax withholding obligations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company withheld 0.1 million shares.

Dividends and Distributions

During the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company declared common stock dividends and OP unit distributions of $0.260 per share/unit and $0.245 per share/unit, respectively. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had declared but unpaid common stock dividends and OP unit distributions of $81.1

- 27 -

million and $80.6 million , respectively. These amounts are included in Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Non-controlling interests

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company exchanged 0.4 million shares of the Company's common stock for an equal number of outstanding OP Units held by certain members of the Parent Company's current and former management. As of September 30, 2017, the Parent Company beneficially owned, through its direct and indirect interest in BPG Sub and the General Partner, 100.0% of the outstanding OP Units.

Preferred Stock

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company redeemed all 125 shares of BPG Sub Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock for $10,000 per share.

10. Stock Based Compensation

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Board of Directors approved the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for a maximum of 15.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued for qualified and non-qualified options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and RSUs, OP Units, performance awards and other stock-based awards.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company granted RSUs to certain employees. The RSUs are divided into multiple tranches, with each tranche subject to separate performance-based, market-based and service-based vesting conditions. Each award contains a threshold, target, and maximum number of units in respect to each tranche. The number of units actually earned for each tranche is determined based on performance during a specified performance period, and the earned units are then further subject to service-based vesting conditions. The aggregate number of RSUs granted, assuming that the target level of performance is achieved, was 0.6 million and 0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and year ended December 31, 2016, respectively, with vesting periods ranging from one to five years. For the performance-based and service-based RSUs granted under the Plan, fair value is based on the Company grant date stock price. For the market-based RSUs granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and year ended December 31, 2016, the Company calculated the grant date fair values per unit using a Monte Carlo simulation based on the probability of satisfying the market performance hurdles over the remainder of the performance period based on the Company’s historical common stock performance relative to the other companies within the FTSE NAREIT Equity Shopping Centers Index as well as the following significant assumptions: (i) volatility of 22.0% to 23.0% and 23.5% to 26.5% , respectively; (ii) a weighted average risk-free interest rate of 1.20% to 1.41% and 1.0% , respectively; and (iii) the Company’s weighted average common stock dividend yield of 4.0% to 4.6% and 3.8% , respectively.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized $2.9 million and $3.5 million of equity compensation expense, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized $7.8 million of equity compensation expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recognized $8.0 million of equity compensation expense, which included the reversal of $2.6 million of previously recognized expense as a result of forfeitures and the acceleration of $2.7 million of expense associated with the issuance of shares, both in connection with the separation of certain Company executives. These amounts are included in General and administrative expense in the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had $13.4 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock compensation expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.2 years.

11. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the Company’s common stockholders, including any participating securities, by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Certain restricted shares issued pursuant to the Company’s share-based compensation program are considered participating securities, as such shares have rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends. Fully-diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into shares of common stock. Unvested RSUs are not allocated net losses and/or any excess of dividends declared over net income, as such amounts are allocated entirely to the common stockholders.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the EPS calculations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016:



	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,

12. Earnings per Unit

Basic earnings per unit is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the Operating Partnership’s common units, including any participating securities, by the weighted average number of partnership common units outstanding for the period. Certain restricted units issued pursuant to the Company’s share-based compensation program are considered participating securities, as such shares have rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends. Fully-diluted earnings per unit reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common units were exercised or converted into shares of common units. Unvested RSUs are not allocated net losses and/or any excess of dividends declared over net income, as such amounts are allocated entirely to the Operating Partnership's common units.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the earnings per unit calculations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016:

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

Except as described below, the Company is not presently involved in any material litigation arising outside the ordinary course of business. However, the Company is involved in routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business, none of which the Company believes, individually or in the aggregate, taking into account existing reserves, will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, or financial position.

On February 8, 2016, the Company issued a press release and filed a Form 8-K reporting the completion of a review by the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors that began after the Company received information in late December 2015 through its established compliance processes. The Audit Committee review led the Board of Directors to conclude that specific Company accounting and financial reporting personnel, in certain instances, were smoothing income items, both up and down, between reporting periods in an effort to achieve consistent quarterly same property net operating income growth.

As a result of the Audit Committee review and the conclusions reached by the Board of Directors, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, its President and Chief Financial Officer, its Chief Accounting Officer and Treasurer, and an accounting employee all resigned. Following these resignations the Company appointed a new Interim Chief Executive Officer and President, Interim Chief Financial Officer and Interim Chief Accounting Officer. A new Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer were appointed effective May 20, 2016. A new Chief Accounting Officer was appointed effective March 8, 2017.

Prior to the Company’s February 8, 2016 announcement, the Company voluntarily reported these matters to the SEC. As a result, the SEC and the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York are conducting investigations of certain aspects of the Company’s financial reporting and accounting for prior periods and the Company is cooperating fully.

The Company entered into a preliminary agreement in May 2017, which was finalized in July 2017, to settle the putative securities class action complaint filed in March 2016 by the Westchester Putnam Counties Heavy & Highway Laborers Local 60 Benefit Funds related to the previously disclosed review conducted by the Company’s Audit Committee for $28.0 million . The settlement amount is within the coverage amount of the Company’s applicable insurance policies. There can be no assurance that such settlement will be approved by the Court. Based on current information, the Company accrued $28.0 million as of September 30, 2017 with respect to the settlement agreement. This amount is included in Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Because the settlement amount is within the coverage amount of the Company’s applicable insurance policies, the Company accrued a receivable of $28.0 million as of September 30, 2017. This amount is included in Accounts receivable, net in the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Leasing commitments

The Company periodically enters into ground leases for neighborhood and community shopping centers that it operates and enters into office leases for administrative space. During the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized rent expense associated with these leases of $1.9 million . During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized rent expense associated with these leases of $5.6 million and $6.5 million , respectively. Minimum annual rental commitments associated with these leases during the next five years and thereafter are as follows:



Year ending December 31,
2017 (remaining three months)	$	1,828
2018	7,127
2019	7,046
2020	7,060
2021	7,251
Thereafter	79,084
Total minimum annual rental commitments	$	109,396

Environmental matters

Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, the Company may be considered an owner or operator of real property or may have arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances. As a result, the Company may be liable for certain costs including removal, remediation, government fines and injuries to persons and property. The Company does not believe that any resulting liability from such matters will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, or financial position.

14. Related-Party Transactions

In the ordinary course of conducting its business, the Company enters into agreements with its affiliates and an unconsolidated joint venture in relation to the leasing and management of its and/or its related parties’ real estate assets.

Pursuant to the employment agreement dated April 12, 2016 between the Company and James Taylor, the Company’s chief executive officer, the Company was contingently obligated to purchase Mr. Taylor’s former residence for an amount equal to the appraised value of the residence as of a date within 120 days of the execution of the employment agreement. Based upon the contingency being triggered in May 2017, the Company purchased the residence on July 5, 2017 for the appraised value of $4.4 million . The Company intends to sell the residence. Based on an August 2017 appraisal, the value of the residence was $3.9 million .

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there were no material receivables from or payables to related parties.

15. Subsequent Events

In preparing the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring after September 30, 2017 for recognition or disclosure purposes. Based on this evaluation, there were no subsequent events from September 30, 2017 through the date the financial statements were issued.

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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes thereto. Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and contained in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes, including trends which might appear, should not be taken as indicative of future operations.

Executive Summary

Our Company

Brixmor Property Group Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, “BPG”) is an internally-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Brixmor Operating Partnership LP and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Operating Partnership”) is the entity through which BPG conducts substantially all of its operations and owns substantially all of its assets. BPG owns 100% of the common stock of BPG Subsidiary Inc. (“BPG Sub”), which, in turn, is the sole member of Brixmor OP GP LLC (the “General Partner”), the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. Unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, “we,” “us,” and “our” as used herein to refer to each of BPG and the Operating Partnership, collectively. We believe we own and operate one of the largest open air retail portfolios by gross leasable area ("GLA") in the United States, comprised primarily of community and neighborhood shopping centers. As of September 30, 2017, we owned interests in 498 wholly owned shopping centers (the “Portfolio”) with approximately 84 million square feet of GLA. In addition, we have one land parcel currently under development. Our high-quality national Portfolio is primarily located within established trade areas in the top 50 Metropolitan Statistical Areas, and our shopping centers are primarily anchored by non-discretionary and value-oriented retailers, as well as consumer-oriented service providers. BPG has been organized and operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the United States federal income tax laws, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2011, has maintained such requirements for our taxable year ended December 31, 2016 and expects to satisfy such requirements for subsequent taxable years.

Our primary objective is to maximize total returns to BPG’s stockholders through consistent, sustainable growth in cash flow. We seek to achieve this through proactive management of and accretive reinvestment in our existing Portfolio of high-quality open air shopping centers, and disciplined capital recycling program focused on maximizing asset value and achieving critical mass in attractive retail submarkets. Our key strategies to achieve growth in cash flow include capitalizing on below-market expiring leases, achieving occupancy increases, pursuing value-enhancing reinvestment opportunities and prudently executing on acquisition and disposition activity, while also maintaining a flexible capital structure positioned for growth.

We believe the following set of competitive advantages positions us to achieve our key strategies:

•

Expansive Retailer Relationships - We believe that given the scale of our asset base and our nationwide footprint, we have a competitive advantage in supporting the growth objectives of the nation’s largest retailers. We believe that we are the largest landlord by GLA to Kroger and TJX Companies, as well as a key landlord to major grocers and most major retail category leaders. We believe that our strong relationships with leading retailers afford us insight into their strategies and priority access to their expansion plans.

•

Fully-Integrated Operating Platform - We manage a fully-integrated operating platform, leveraging our national scope and demonstrating our commitment to operating with a strong regional and local presence. We provide our tenants with dedicated service through both our national accounts leasing team based in New York and our network of four regional offices in Atlanta, Chicago, San Diego and Philadelphia, as well as 11 leasing and property management satellite offices throughout the country. We believe that this strategy enables us to obtain critical market intelligence and to benefit from the regional and local expertise of our workforce.

•

Experienced Management - Senior members of our management team are seasoned real estate operators with public company leadership experience. Our management team has deep industry knowledge and extensive, well-established relationships with retailers, brokers and vendors through many years of transactional experience, as well as significant expertise in executing value-enhancing reinvestment opportunities.

- 33 -

Other Factors That May Influence our Future Results

We derive our revenues primarily from rent and expense reimbursements due to us from tenants under existing leases at each of our properties. Expense reimbursements primarily consist of payments made by tenants to us under contractual lease obligations for their proportional share of the property’s operating expenses, insurance and real estate taxes and certain capital expenditures related to maintenance of the properties.

The amount of rental income and expense reimbursements we receive is primarily dependent on our ability to maintain or increase rental rates and on our ability to renew expiring leases and/or lease available space. Factors that could affect our rental income include: (1) changes in national, regional or local economic climates; (2) local market conditions, including an oversupply of space in, or a reduction in demand for, properties similar to those in our Portfolio; (3) changes in market rental rates; (4) changes in the regional demographics surrounding our properties; (5) competition from other available properties and the attractiveness of properties in our Portfolio to our tenants; (6) the financial stability of tenants, including the ability of tenants to pay rent and expense reimbursements; and (7) in the case of percentage rent, the sales volume of our tenants.

Our operating costs represent property-related costs, such as repairs and maintenance, landscaping, snow removal, utilities, property insurance costs, security, ground rent expense related to properties for which we are the lessee and various other property related costs. Increases in our operating costs, to the extent they are not offset by revenue increases, may impact our overall performance. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could impact our future results and performance, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

Rental income

The decrease in rental income for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $1.3 million, as compared to the corresponding period in 2016, was primarily due to (i) a $2.1 million decrease in above and below market lease accretion, net of tenant inducements; and (ii) a $0.9 million decrease in straight-line rent; partially offset by (iii) a $1.1 million increase in lease settlement income; and (iv) a $0.9 million increase in base rent. The base rent increase was driven primarily by contractual rent increases as well as positive rent spreads of 12.2% during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 11.3% in 2016 for new and renewal leases and option exercises, partially offset by a decline in occupancy.

Expense reimbursements

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We anticipate that our cash flows from the sources listed below will provide adequate capital for the next 12 months for all anticipated uses, including all scheduled principal and interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness, current and anticipated tenant improvements, stockholder distributions to maintain BPG's qualification as a REIT and other capital obligations associated with conducting our business.

Our primary expected sources and uses of capital are as follows:

Sources


•	cash, cash equivalent and restricted cash balances;


•	operating cash flow;


•	dispositions;


•	available borrowings under our existing Unsecured Credit Facility;


•	issuance of long-term debt; and


•	issuance of equity securities.

Uses


•	recurring maintenance capital expenditures;

- 40 -


•	leasing related capital expenditures;


•	anchor space repositioning, redevelopment and development expenditures;


•	debt maturities and repayment requirements;


•	dividend/distribution payments; and


•	acquisitions.

We believe our current capital structure provides us with the financial flexibility and capacity to fund our current capital needs as well as future growth opportunities. We have a $1.25 billion revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility"), under which we had $1.25 billion of undrawn capacity as of September 30, 2017. In addition, we believe we have access to multiple forms of capital, including secured property level debt, unsecured corporate level debt, preferred equity and common equity, including through our at-the-market equity offering program. We currently have investment grade credit ratings from all three major credit rating agencies. We intend to continue to enhance our financial and operating flexibility through laddering and extending the duration of our debt, and further expanding our unencumbered asset base.

In July 2017, the Operating Partnership entered into a $300.0 million variable rate unsecured term loan facility (the "$300 Million Term Loan"). The term loan facility has a seven-year term maturing on July 26, 2024, with no available extension options, and will bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 190 basis points (based on the Operating Partnership’s current credit ratings). Proceeds from the $300 Million Term Loan were used to prepay $300.0 million of an unsecured term loan under the Company’s Unsecured Credit Facility maturing July 31, 2018.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company repaid $790.0 million of an unsecured term loan under our Unsecured Credit Facility and $380.3 million of secured loans, resulting in a $0.5 million net gain on extinguishment of debt. These repayments were funded primarily with proceeds from the issuance of the 2027 Notes, 2024 Notes and the $300 Million Term Loan.

In connection with our intention to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we expect to continue paying regular dividends to our stockholders. Our Board of Directors will continue to evaluate the dividend policy on a quarterly basis, evaluating sources and uses of capital and operating fundamentals. We generally intend to maintain a conservative dividend payout ratio, reserving such amounts as the Board of Directors considers necessary for reinvestment in our Portfolio, debt reduction, acquisitions of new properties, other investments as suitable opportunities arise, and such other factors as the Board of Directors considers appropriate. Cash dividends paid to common stockholders and OP Unit holders for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 were $238.2 million and $224.1 million, respectively. Our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.26 per common share in July 2017 for the third quarter of 2017. The dividend was paid on October 16, 2017 to shareholders of record on October 5, 2017. Our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.275 per common share in October 2017 for the fourth quarter of 2017. The dividend is payable on January 16, 2018 to shareholders of record on January 4, 2018.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash for BPG and the Operating Partnership were $142.0 million and $76.8 million as of September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Operating Activities

Net cash flow provided by operating activities primarily consists of cash inflows from tenant rental payments and expense reimbursements and cash outflows for property operating costs, real estate taxes, general and administrative expenses and interest expense.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, our net cash flow provided by operating activities decreased $0.1 million as compared to the corresponding period in 2016. The decrease is primarily due to (i) a decrease in working capital and (ii) a decrease in lease settlement income, partially offset by (iii) an increase in net operating income, (iv) a decrease in cash outflows for interest expense, and (v) a decrease in cash outflows for general and administrative expense due to decreased severance expense associated with the separation of former executives of the Company in 2016.

Investing Activities

Net cash flow used in investing activities is impacted by the nature, timing and extent of improvements and investments in our shopping centers, including capital expenditures associated with leasing and redevelopment efforts, and our acquisition and disposition programs. Capital used to fund these activities can vary significantly from period to period based on the volume and timing of these activities.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, our net cash flow used in investing activities decreased $100.9 million as compared to the corresponding period in 2016. The decrease was primarily due to (i) an increase of $197.6 million in proceeds from sales of real estate assets, and (ii) an increase of $12.4 million in proceeds from the sale of our unconsolidated joint venture interest, partially offset by (iii) an increase of $105.1 million in acquisitions of real estate assets, and (iv) an increase of $4.2 million in improvements to and investments in real estate assets.

Improvements to and investments in real estate assets

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we expended $140.0 million and $135.9 million, respectively, on improvements to and investments in real estate assets, which included recurring and leasing-related capital expenditures, as well as costs related to anchor space repositioning, redevelopment, outparcel development and new development projects.

Recurring capital expenditures represent costs to fund major replacements and betterments to our properties. Recurring capital expenditures per square foot for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, were $0.21 and $0.12, respectively.

- 42 -

Leasing related capital expenditures represent tenant specific costs incurred to lease space including tenant improvements and tenant allowances. In addition, we evaluate our Portfolio on an ongoing basis to identify value-enhancing anchor space repositioning, redevelopment and development opportunities. Such initiatives are tenant driven and focus on upgrading our centers with strong, best-in-class retailers and enhancing the overall merchandise mix and tenant quality of our Portfolio.

As of September 30, 2017, in-process anchor space repositioning, redevelopment and development projects are as follows (dollars in thousands):



	As of September 30, 2017
	Total Projects	Anticipated Cost		Cost Incurred
Anchor space repositioning	21	$	44,200	$	17,035
Redevelopment	14	187,700		79,663
Outparcel development	7	13,724		3,263
New development	1	37,800		19,241
Total	43	$	283,424	$	119,202

Acquisitions of and proceeds from sales of real estate assets

We continue to evaluate the market for available properties and may acquire shopping centers when we believe strategic opportunities exist, particularly where we can enhance our concentration in attractive retail submarkets and the long-term growth rate of our asset base. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we acquired one shopping center, one building, two outparcel buildings and two outparcels for an aggregate purchase price, including transaction costs, of $111.8 million.

We may also dispose of properties when we feel growth has been maximized or the assets are no longer a strategic fit for our Portfolio. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we disposed of 14 wholly owned shopping centers and two outparcel buildings for net proceeds of $228.7 million . In addition, d uring the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we disposed of our sole unconsolidated joint venture interest for net proceeds of $12.4 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash flow used in financing activities is impacted by the nature, timing and extent of issuances of debt and equity securities, as well as principal and other payments associated with our outstanding indebtedness.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company’s net cash used in financing activities increased $27.5 million as compared to the corresponding period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to a $19.2 million increase in debt repayments, net of borrowings and a net increase of $14.9 million in distributions to common stock holders, partners and non-controlling interests, partially offset by decrease of $6.5 million in deferred financing costs.

Contractual Obligations

Our contractual obligations relate to our debt, including secured loans, unsecured notes payable and unsecured credit facilities with maturities ranging from one year to 13 years, in addition to non-cancelable operating leases pertaining to shopping centers where we are the lessee and to our corporate offices.

Funds From Operations

NAREIT FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP performance measure utilized to evaluate the operational performance of real estate companies. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines FFO as net income (loss) in accordance with GAAP excluding (i) gain (loss) on disposition of operating properties, and (ii) extraordinary items, plus (iii) depreciation and amortization of operating properties, (iv) impairment of operating properties and real estate equity investments, and (v) after adjustments for joint ventures calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis.

We present NAREIT FFO as we consider it an important supplemental measure of our operational and financial performance. We believe NAREIT FFO assists investors in analyzing our comparative operational and financial performance because, by excluding gains and losses related to dispositions of previously depreciated operating properties, real estate-related depreciation and amortization of continuing operations, impairment of operating properties and real estate equity investments, extraordinary items, and after adjustments for joint ventures calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis, investors can compare the operational performance of a company’s real estate between periods.

NAREIT FFO should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) or other GAAP financial measures, as an indicator of financial performance and is not an alternative to, or more meaningful than, cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of liquidity.

Non-GAAP performance measures have limitations as they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations and, accordingly, should always be considered as supplemental financial results to those presented in accordance with GAAP. Computation of NAREIT FFO may differ in certain respects from the methodology utilized by other REITs and, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by such other REITs. Investors are cautioned that items excluded from NAREIT FFO are relevant to understanding and addressing financial performance.

Same Property Net Operating Income

Same Property Net Operating Income ("NOI") is a supplemental, non-GAAP performance measure utilized to evaluate the operating performance of real estate companies. Same property NOI is calculated (using properties owned for the entirety of both periods and excluding properties under development), as total property revenues (base rent, ancillary and other, expense reimbursements, and percentage rents) less direct property operating expenses (operating costs, real estate taxes and provision for doubtful accounts). Same property NOI excludes corporate level income (including management, transaction, and other fees), lease termination fees, straight-line rental income, amortization of above- and below-market rent and tenant inducements, straight-line ground rent expense, and income / expense associated with the Company's captive insurance company.

Same Property NOI eliminates disparities in NOI due to the acquisition, disposition or stabilization of development properties during the period presented, and therefore provides a more consistent metric for comparing operating performance. Management uses same property NOI to review operating results for comparative purposes with respect to previous periods and also to evaluate future prospects.

Same Property NOI should not be considered an alternative to or more meaningful than net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) or other GAAP financial measures as an indicator of financial performance and is not an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of liquidity.

Non-GAAP performance measures have limitations as they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations and, accordingly, should always be considered as supplemental financial results to those presented in accordance with GAAP. Computation of Same Property NOI may differ in certain respects from the methodology utilized by other REITs and, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by such other REITs. Investors are cautioned that items excluded from Same Property NOI are relevant to understanding and addressing financial performance.

Inflation

Over the last several years, inflation has been historically low and has had a minimal impact on the operating performance of our shopping centers; however, inflation may increase in the future. Most of our long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation, including contractual rent increases and requirements for tenants to pay their proportional share of property operating expenses, insurance and real estate taxes, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in property-level costs resulting from inflation. In addition, we believe that many of our existing rental rates are below current market levels for comparable space and that upon

renewal or re-leasing, such rates may be increased to be consistent with, or closer to, current market rates. This belief is based upon an analysis of relevant market conditions. In addition, with respect to our outstanding indebtedness, we periodically evaluate our exposure to interest rate fluctuations, and have, and may in the future, enter into interest rate protection agreements which mitigate, but do not eliminate, the impact of changes in interest rates on our variable rate loans.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We had no material off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2017.
