Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Note 1. Business and Organization

Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that focuses primarily on ownership and operation of grocery-anchored shopping centers straddling the Washington, DC to Boston corridor. At March 31, 2014, the Company owned and managed a portfolio of 62 operating properties (excluding properties “held for sale/conveyance”).

Cedar Realty Trust Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) is the entity through which the Company conducts substantially all of its business and owns (either directly or through subsidiaries) substantially all of its assets. At March 31, 2014, the Company owned a 99.4% economic interest in, and was the sole general partner of, the Operating Partnership. The limited partners’ interest in the Operating Partnership (0.6% at March 31, 2014) is represented by Operating Partnership Units (“OP Units”). The carrying amount of such interest is adjusted at the end of each reporting period to an amount equal to the limited partners’ ownership percentage of the Operating Partnership’s net equity. The approximately 465,000 OP Units outstanding at March 31, 2014 are economically equivalent to the Company’s common stock. The holders of OP Units have the right to exchange their OP Units for the same number of shares of the Company’s common stock or, at the Company’s option, for cash.

As used herein, the “Company” refers to Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, including the Operating Partnership or, where the context so requires, Cedar Realty Trust, Inc. only.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation/Basis of Preparation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statement disclosures. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for fair presentation (including normal recurring accruals) have been included. The financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis in accordance with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods covered by the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The prior period financial statements reflect certain reclassifications which had no impact on previously-reported net income attributable to common shareholders or earnings per share. The consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Recently-Issued Accounting Pronouncement

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance which amends the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under the amended guidance, a disposal of an individual property or group of properties (i.e., when a property or properties are sold or meet the criteria to be classified as “held for sale”) is required to be reported in “discontinued operations” only if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. The amended guidance also requires additional disclosures about both discontinued operations and the disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements.

The Company has adopted the provisions of this guidance as of January 1, 2014, and has applied the provisions prospectively. The results of operations for properties classified as “held for sale/conveyance” prior to the adoption of this guidance will continue to be reported as “discontinued operations” in the consolidated statements of operations.

Note 3. Real Estate

On March 21, 2014, the Company acquired Quartermaster Plaza located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The purchase price for the property was approximately $92.3 million, of which approximately $53.4 million was funded from the assumptions of (1) a $42.1 million mortgage loan payable, bearing interest at the rate of 5.3% per annum and maturing in October 2015, and (2) an $11.3 million mortgage loan payable, bearing interest at the rate of 5.5% per annum and maturing in October 2014, with the remainder being funded from the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility. The Company incurred costs of $2.9 million in connection with this acquisition. In addition, the purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to real estate assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as applicable, in accordance with accounting policies for business combinations, such valuations to be finalized when valuation studies are completed.

During the quarter, the Company determined to sell the following properties: (1) Annie Land Plaza, located in Lovingston, Virginia, (2) Carbondale Plaza, located in Carbondale, Pennsylvania, (3) Fairview Plaza, located in New Cumberland, Pennsylvania, and (4) Virginia Little Creek, located in Norfolk, Virginia. As such, these properties have been classified as “real estate held for sale/conveyance” as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As the potential sales of these properties do not meet the criteria for the newly-adopted guidance for reporting discontinued operations (See Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies), the results of operations for these properties have remained in continuing operations. At March 31, 2014, the carrying value of the assets and liabilities of these properties totaled $30.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively, and are included in real estate held for sale/conveyance and unamortized intangible lease liabilities – real estate held for sale/conveyance, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company conducts a continuing review of the values for all properties “held for sale/conveyance” based on final sales prices and sales contracts entered into. Impairment charges/reversals, if applicable, are based on a comparison of the carrying values of the properties with either (1) actual sales prices less costs to sell for properties sold, or contract amounts for properties in the process of being sold, (2) estimated sales prices based on discounted cash flow analyses, if no contract amounts were as yet being negotiated, as discussed in more detail in Note 5—Fair Value Measurements, or (3) with respect to land parcels, estimated sales prices, less cost to sell, based on comparable sales completed in the selected market areas.

On February 25, 2014, the Company sold Harbor Square (f/k/a Shore Mall), located in Egg Harbor, New Jersey, for a sales price of $25.0 million, which approximated its carrying value as of that date.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company was in the process of negotiating with the respective lenders to two of its properties (Gahanna Discount Drug Mart Plaza and McCormick Place) to convey the properties either through short sale, foreclosure, or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure processes (mortgage loans payable and accrued interest and real estate taxes aggregated $7.9 million at that date). In connection with these conveyances, each applicable subsidiary borrower has stopped paying monthly mortgage payments and is currently in default on these non-recourse mortgages. At the time of such conveyances, the Company would recognize gains (an aggregate of approximately $1.7 million as of March 31, 2014) based on the excess of the carrying amounts of the liabilities (mortgage principal and any accrued property-related expenses) over the carrying amounts of the properties.

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, rents and other receivables, certain other assets, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value. The fair value of the Company’s investments and liabilities related to share-based compensation were determined to be a Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy, and were based on independent values provided by financial institutions.

The valuation of the asset and liability for the Company’s interest rate swaps, which are measured on a recurring basis, were determined to be Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy, and were based on independent values provided by financial institutions. Such valuations were determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analyses, on the expected cash flows of each derivative. The analyses reflect the contractual terms of the swaps, including the period to maturity, and user-observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves (“significant other observable inputs”). The fair value calculation also includes an amount for risk of non-performance using “significant unobservable inputs” such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default. The Company has concluded that, as of March 31, 2014, the fair value associated with the “significant unobservable inputs” relating to the Company’s risk of non-performance was insignificant to the overall fair value of the interest rate swap agreements and, as a result, that the relevant inputs for purposes of calculating the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements, in their entirety, were based upon “significant other observable inputs”.

Nonfinancial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated financial statements consist of real estate held for sale/conveyance, which are measured on a nonrecurring basis, have been determined to be (1) a Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy, where applicable, based on the respective contracts of sale, adjusted for closing costs and expenses, or (2) a Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy, where applicable, based on estimated sales prices, adjusted for closing costs and expenses, determined by discounted cash flow analyses, direct capitalization analyses or a sales comparison approach if no contracts had been concluded. The discounted cash flow and direct capitalization analyses include all estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specific holding period and, where applicable, any estimated debt premiums. These cash flows were comprised of unobservable inputs which included forecasted rental revenues and expenses based upon existing in-place leases, market conditions and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these analyses were based upon observable rates that the Company believed to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties. The sales comparison approach was utilized for certain land values and include comparable sales that were completed in the selected market areas. The comparable sales utilized in these analyses were based upon observable per acre rates that the Company believed to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties.

The Company engaged third party valuation experts to assist with the preparation of certain of its valuations. Other valuations were prepared using internally-developed valuation models. In addition, these valuations are reviewed and approved, during each reporting period, by a diverse group of management, as deemed necessary, including personnel from acquisitions, accounting, finance, operations, development and leasing departments, and the valuations are updated as appropriate.

The following tables show the hierarchy for those assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively:

Note 6. Mortgage Loans Payable and Credit Facility

Mortgage Loans Payable

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company prepaid $58.1 million of mortgage loans payable (including $0.3 million included in mortgage loans payable – real estate held for sale/conveyance).

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loans

The Company has a $260 million revolving credit facility, expiring on August 1, 2016. The revolving credit facility may be extended, at the Company’s option, for two additional one-year periods, subject to customary conditions. Under an accordion feature, the facility can be increased to $500 million, subject to customary conditions, and lending commitments from participating banks. The facility contains financial covenants including, but not limited to, maximum debt leverage, maximum secured debt, minimum interest coverage, minimum fixed charge coverage, and minimum net worth. In addition, the facility contains restrictions including, but not limited to, limits on indebtedness, certain investments and distributions. Although the facility is unsecured, borrowing availability is based on unencumbered property adjusted net operating income, as defined in the agreement. The Company’s failure to comply with the covenants or the occurrence of an event of default under the facility could result in the acceleration of the related debt.

Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are priced at LIBOR plus 195 basis points (“bps”) (a weighted average rate of 2.2% per annum at March 31, 2014), and can range from LIBOR plus 165 bps to 225 bps based on the Company’s leverage ratio. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $119.0 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility, and had $133.2 million available for additional borrowings.

On February 11, 2014, the Company closed $150 million of unsecured term loans consisting of a five-year $75 million term loan, maturing on February 11, 2019, and a seven-year $75 million term loan, maturing on February 11, 2021. Under an accordion feature, the term loans can be increased to an aggregate of $300 million, subject to customary conditions and lending commitments from participating banks. The financial covenants and other terms contained in the loan agreement are substantially the same as those contained in the Company’s revolving credit facility (see above). In connection with the transaction, the Company paid fees and legal expenses of approximately $1.1 million.

(unaudited)

The five-year term loan, all of which was borrowed at closing, is priced at LIBOR plus 175 bps (a weighted average rate of 1.9% per annum at March 31, 2014), and can range from LIBOR plus 145 bps to 205 bps based on the Company’s leverage ratio. The seven-year term loan, none of which has been borrowed at March 31, 2014, will be initially priced at LIBOR plus 200 bps, and can range from LIBOR plus 170 bps to 230 bps, also based on the Company’s leverage ratio. The Company has until July 1, 2014 to borrow the $75.0 million under the seven-year term loan. The Company also entered into forward interest rate swap agreements which convert the LIBOR rates to fixed rates for the new term loans beginning July 1, 2014 through their maturities. As a result, the effective fixed interest rates will be 3.37% for the five-year term loan and 4.27% for the seven-year term loan beginning July 1, 2014, based on the Company’s current leverage ratio.

Derivative Financial Instruments

As discussed above, on February 11, 2014, the Company closed $150 million of unsecured term loans for which it entered into forward interest rate swap agreements, effective July 1, 2014.

At March 31, 2014, the Company had a mortgage loan payable of approximately $11.8 million (included in mortgage loans payable – real estate held for sale/conveyance on the consolidated balance sheet) subject to an interest rate swap. The interest rate swap converted the LIBOR-based variable rate to a fixed rate of 5.2% per annum.

At March 31, 2014, the Company had on the consolidated balance sheet (1) $589,000 included in other assets and deferred charges, net, relating to the fair value of the interest rate swaps applicable to the $150 million unsecured term loans which closed on February 11, 2014, and (2) $625,000 included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities relating to the fair value of the interest rate swap applicable to the mortgage loan payable. Charges and/or credits relating to the changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps are made to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), noncontrolling interests (minority interests in consolidated joint ventures and limited partners’ interest), or operations (included in interest expense), as appropriate.

such shares have non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends). Unvested restricted shares are not allocated net losses and/or any excess of dividends declared over net income, as such amounts are allocated entirely to the common shareholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had 3.7 million and 3.6 million, respectively, of weighted average unvested restricted shares outstanding. The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the EPS calculations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively:

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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

Executive Summary

The Company is a fully-integrated real estate investment trust that focuses primarily on ownership and operation of grocery-anchored shopping centers straddling the Washington DC to Boston corridor. At March 31, 2014, the Company owned and managed a portfolio of 62 operating properties (excluding properties “held for sale/conveyance”) totaling approximately 9.5 million square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”). The portfolio was 93.5% leased and 92.6% occupied at March 31, 2014.

The Company derives substantially all of its revenues from rents and operating expense reimbursements received pursuant to long-term leases. The Company’s operating results therefore depend on the ability of its tenants to make the payments required by the terms of their leases. The Company focuses its investment activities on grocery-anchored community shopping centers. The Company believes that, because of the need of consumers to purchase food and other staple goods and services generally available at such centers, its type of “necessities-based” properties should provide relatively stable revenue flows even during difficult economic times.

2014 Significant Transactions

Acquisition

On March 21, 2014, the Company acquired Quartermaster Plaza located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The purchase price for the property was approximately $92.3 million, of which approximately $53.4 million was funded from the assumptions of (1) a $42.1 million mortgage loan payable, bearing interest at the rate of 5.3% per annum and maturing in October 2015, and (2) an $11.3 million mortgage loan payable, bearing interest at the rate of 5.5% per annum and maturing in October 2014, with the remainder being funded from the Company’s unsecured reolving credit facility. The Company incurred costs of $2.9 million in connection with this acquisition.

Disposition

On February 25, 2014, the Company sold Harbor Square (f/k/a Shore Mall), located in Egg Harbor, New Jersey, for a sales price of $25.0 million, which approximated its carrying value as of that date.

Table of Contents

Debt

On February 11, 2014, the Company closed $150 million of unsecured term loans consisting of a five-year $75 million term loan, all of which was borrowed at closing, maturing on February 11, 2019, and a seven-year $75 million term loan, none of which was borrowed at closing, maturing on February 11, 2021. The Company has until July 1, 2014 to borrow the $75.0 million under the seven-year term loan. See “Liquidity” below for additional details.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company prepaid $58.1 million of mortgage loans payable (including $0.3 million included in mortgage loans payable – real estate held for sale/conveyance) from the proceeds of the five-year $75 million term loan which closed on February 11, 2014.

Equity

In January 2014, the Company concluded a public offering of 6,900,000 shares of its common stock (including 900,000 shares relating to the exercise of an over-allotment option by the underwriters), and realized net proceeds, after offering expenses, of approximately $41.3 million.

The Company has an at-the-market offering program, under which it may offer and sell, from time-to-time, up to 10 million shares of its common stock. Through March 31, 2014, no shares had been sold under this program.

Impairment (charges)/reversal in 2014 relates to the impairment of a property classified in 2014 as real estate held for sale/conveyance on the balance sheet. The impairment reversal in 2013 relates to the partial cash recovery on a loan receivable previously written off.

Acquisition costs in 2014 relates to the costs associated with the purchase of Quartermaster Plaza, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Depreciation and amortization expenses were consistent, reflecting the completion of scheduled depreciation and amortization, offset by the depreciation and amortization of properties acquired in the first quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2013.

Interest expense decreased $0.9 million as a result of a lower overall weighted average interest rate, partially offset by $0.2 million due to an increase in the overall outstanding principal balance of debt.

Gain on sales in 2013 relates to the sale of a land parcel treated as “held for sale/conveyance”.

Discontinued operations for 2014 and 2013 include the results of operations and impairment charges for properties sold or treated as “discontinued operations” prior to December 31, 2013, as more fully discussed elsewhere in this report.

Same-Property Net Operating Income

Same-property net operating income (“same-property NOI”) is a widely-used non-GAAP financial measure for REITs that the Company believes, when considered with financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, is useful to investors as it provides an indication of the recurring cash generated by the Company’s properties by excluding certain non-cash revenues and expenses, as well as other infrequent items such as lease termination income which tends to fluctuate more than rents from year to year. Properties are included in same-property NOI if they are owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared, except for properties undergoing significant redevelopment and expansion until such properties have stabilized, and properties classified as “held for sale/conveyance”. Consistent with the capital treatment of such costs under GAAP, tenant improvements, leasing commissions and other direct leasing costs are excluded from same-property NOI.

Same-property NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of liquidity. Further, same-property NOI is a measure for which there is no standard industry definition and, as such, it is not consistently defined or reported on among the Company’s peers, and thus may not provide an adequate basis for comparison between REITs. The following table reconciles same-property NOI to the Company’s consolidated operating income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company funds operating expenses and other short-term liquidity requirements, including debt service, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, preferred and common dividend distributions and distributions to minority interest partners, if made, primarily from its operations. The Company may also use its revolving credit facility for these purposes. The Company expects to fund long-term liquidity requirements for property acquisitions, redevelopment costs, capital improvements, and maturing debt initially with its revolving credit facility, and ultimately through a combination of issuing and/or assuming additional debt, the sale of equity securities, the issuance of additional OP Units, and/or the sale of properties. Although the Company believes it has access to secured and unsecured financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will have the availability of financing on completed development projects, additional construction financing, or proceeds from the refinancing of existing debt.

Debt (excluding debt related to properties held for sale/conveyance) is comprised of the following at March 31, 2014:

Table of Contents

The Company has a $260 million revolving credit facility, expiring on August 1, 2016. The revolving credit facility may be extended, at the Company’s option, for two additional one-year periods, subject to customary conditions. Under an accordion feature, the facility can be increased to $500 million, subject to customary conditions and lending commitments from participating banks. The facility contains financial covenants including, but not limited to, maximum debt leverage, maximum secured debt, minimum interest coverage, minimum fixed charge coverage, and minimum net worth. In addition, the facility contains restrictions including, but not limited to, limits on indebtedness, certain investments and distributions. Although the facility is unsecured, borrowing availability is based on unencumbered property adjusted net operating income, as defined in the agreement. The Company’s failure to comply with the covenants or the occurrence of an event of default under the facility could result in the acceleration of the related debt.

Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are priced at LIBOR plus 195 bps (a weighted average rate of 2.2% per annum at March 31, 2014), and can range from LIBOR plus 165 to 225 bps based on the Company’s leverage ratio. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $119.0 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility, and had $133.2 million available for additional borrowings.

On February 11, 2014, the Company closed $150 million of unsecured term loans consisting of a five-year $75 million term loan, maturing on February 11, 2019, and a seven-year $75 million term loan, maturing on February 11, 2021. Under an accordion feature, the term loans can be increased to an aggregate of $300 million, subject to customary conditions and lending commitments from participating banks. The financial covenants and other terms contained in the loan agreement are substantially the same as those contained in the Company’s revolving credit facility. In connection with the transaction, the Company paid fees and legal expenses of approximately $1.1 million.

The five-year term loan, all of which was borrowed at closing, is priced at LIBOR plus 175 bps (a weighted average rate of 1.9% per annum at March 31, 2014), and can range from LIBOR plus 145 bps to 205 bps based on the Company’s leverage ratio. The seven-year term loan, none of which has been borrowed at March 31, 2014, will be initially priced at LIBOR plus 200 bps, and can range from LIBOR plus 170 bps to 230 bps, also based on the Company’s leverage ratio. The Company expects to borrow the $75.0 million under the seven-year term loan on or before July 1, 2014, the expiration date of the commitment. The Company also entered into forward interest rate swap agreements which convert the LIBOR rates to fixed rates for the new term loans beginning July 1, 2014 through their maturities. As a result, the effective fixed interest rates will be 3.37% for the five-year term loan and 4.27% for the seven-year term loan beginning July 1, 2014, based on the Company’s current leverage ratio.

Property-specific mortgage loans payable at March 31, 2014 consisted of fixed-rate notes totaling $509.7 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.3%. For the remainder of 2014, the Company has approximately $5.6 million of scheduled debt principal amortization payments and $104.1 million of scheduled balloon payments.

Table of Contents

Mortgage loans payable, unsecured term loans and the revolving credit facility have an overall weighted average interest rate of 4.3% and mature at various dates through 2029. The terms of several of the Company’s mortgage loans payable require the Company to deposit certain replacement and other reserves with its lenders. Such “restricted cash” is generally available only for property-level requirements for which the reserves have been established, and is not available to fund other property-level or Company-level obligations.

On January 13, 2014, the Company concluded a public offering of 6,900,000 shares of its common stock (including 900,000 shares relating to the exercise of an over-allotment option by the underwriters), and realized net proceeds, after offering expenses, of approximately $41.3 million.

The Company has an at-the-market offering program under which it may offer and sell, from time-to-time, up to 10 million shares of its common stock. Through March 31, 2014, no shares had been sold under this program.

In order to continue qualifying as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its “REIT taxable income”, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company paid common stock dividends totaling $0.20 per share during 2013. While the Company intends to continue paying regular quarterly dividends, future dividend declarations will continue to be at the discretion of the Board of Directors, and will depend on the cash flow and financial condition of the Company, capital requirements, annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, and such other factors as the Board of Directors may deem relevant.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities, before net changes in operating assets and liabilities, was $12.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and $12.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The change was attributable to costs incurred as a result of a property acquisition in the first quarter of 2014 and the reduced results related to properties sold, which was partially offset by results of property acquisitions in the first quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2013 and reductions in interest expense. The comparative net changes in operating assets and liabilities were primarily the result of the payment of annual property/casualty insurance premiums (which had been paid in installments in prior years), and the timing of collections of receivables and payments of accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Investing Activitie s

Net cash flows (used in) provided by investing activities were primarily the result of the Company’s property disposition activities, a property acquisition and expenditures for property improvements. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company acquired a shopping center, which was partially paid in cash, for $38.5 million, incurred expenditures of $3.2 million for property improvements, and had an increase of $1.1 million in construction escrows and other, which was offset by $24.5 million in proceeds received from sales of properties classified as held for sale/conveyance. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company received $3.3 million in proceeds from sales of properties classified as held for sale/conveyance, received $1.5 million in proceeds from construction escrows and other, and received a $1.1 million repayment of a note receivable, offset by expenditures of $4.6 million for property improvements.

Financing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company borrowed $75.0 million under its new term loan and received proceeds of $41.3 million from the sale of its common stock, which was offset by $60.7 million of repayments of mortgage obligations, $34.5 million of net repayments under the revolving credit facility, $7.6 million of preferred and common stock distributions, and $1.3 million payments of debt financing costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company had $40.6 million of repayments of mortgage obligations, paid $25.0 million for the redemption of the 8.875% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, and $7.2 million of preferred and common stock distributions, offset by $59.8 million of proceeds from the sale of the 7.25% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, and $9.2 million of net advances under the revolving credit facility.

Funds From Operations

Funds From Operations “FFO” is a widely-recognized non-GAAP financial measure for REITs that the Company believes, when considered with financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, is useful to investors in understanding financial performance and providing a relevant basis for comparison among REITs. In addition, FFO is useful to investors as it captures features particular to real estate performance by recognizing that real estate generally appreciates over time or maintains residual value to a much greater extent than do other depreciable assets. Investors should review FFO, along with GAAP net income, when trying to understand a REIT’s operating performance. The Company considers FFO an important supplemental measure of its operating performance and believes that it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs.

The Company computes FFO in accordance with the “White Paper” published by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), which defines FFO as net income applicable to common shareholders (determined in accordance with GAAP), excluding

31


Table of Contents

impairment charges, gains or losses from debt restructurings and sales of properties, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for partnerships and joint ventures (which are computed to reflect FFO on the same basis). FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered as an alternative to net income applicable to common shareholders or to cash flow from operating activities. FFO is not indicative of cash available to fund ongoing cash needs, including the ability to make cash distributions. Although FFO is a measure used for comparability in assessing the performance of REITs, as the NAREIT White Paper only provides guidelines for computing FFO, the computation of FFO may vary from one company to another. The following table sets forth the Company’s calculations of FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

Inflation

Inflation has been relatively low in recent years and has not had a significant detrimental impact on the Company’s results of operations. Should inflation rates increase in the future, substantially all of the Company’s tenant leases contain provisions designed to partially mitigate the negative impact of inflation in the near term. Such lease provisions include clauses that require tenants to reimburse the Company for real estate taxes and many of the operating expenses it incurs. Significant inflation rate increases over a prolonged period of time may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

One of the principal market risks facing the Company is interest rate risk on its unsecured credit facility and term loans. The Company may, when it believes it is advantageous, as it did with its $150 million of unsecured term loans, hedge its interest rate risk by using derivative financial instruments. The Company is not subject to foreign currency risk.

32


Table of Contents

The Company is exposed to interest rate changes primarily through its variable-rate revolving credit facility and term loans used to maintain liquidity, fund capital expenditures and redevelopment activities, and expand its real estate investment portfolio. The Company’s objectives with respect to interest rate risk are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on operations and cash flows, and to lower its overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, the Company may borrow at fixed rates and may enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, caps, etc., in order to mitigate its interest rate risk on a related variable-rate financial instrument. The Company does not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. At March 31, 2014, the Company had a mortgage loan payable of approximately $11.8 million (included in mortgage loans payable – real estate held for sale/conveyance on the consolidated balance sheet) subject to an interest rate swap which converted the LIBOR-based variable rate to a fixed rate of 5.2% per annum. In addition, on February 11, 2014, the Company closed $150 million of unsecured term loans. The Company entered into forward interest rate swap agreements which convert the LIBOR rates to fixed rates for the new term loans beginning July 1, 2014 through their maturities. As a result, the effective fixed interest rates will be 3.37% for the $75.0 million five-year term loan and 4.27% for the $75.0 million seven-year term loan beginning July 1, 2014, based on the Company’s current leverage ratio. At March 31, 2014, the Company had on its consolidated balance sheet (1) $589,000 included in other assets and deferred charges, net, relating to the fair value of the interest rate swaps applicable to the $150 million unsecured term loans, and (2) $625,000 included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities relating to the fair value of the interest rate swap applicable to the mortgage loan payable.

At March 31, 2014, long-term debt consisted of fixed-rate mortgage loans payable, an unsecured term loan, and the Company’s unsecured variable-rate credit facility. The average interest rate on the $509.7 million of fixed-rate indebtedness outstanding was 5.3%, with maturities at various dates through 2029. The average interest rate on the $244.0 million of unsecured variable-rate revolving credit facility and term loans was 2.0%. With respect to the $244.0 million of variable-rate debt outstanding at March 31, 2014, if interest rates either increase or decrease by 100 bps, the Company’s interest cost would increase or decrease respectively by approximately $2.4 million per annum.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is reported within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In this regard, the Company has formed a Disclosure Committee currently comprised of several of the Company’s executive officers as well as certain other employees with knowledge of information that may be considered in the SEC reporting process. The Committee has responsibility for the development and assessment of the financial and non-financial information to be included in the reports filed with the SEC, and assists the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in connection with their certifications contained in the Company’s SEC filings. The Committee meets regularly and reports to the Audit Committee on a quarterly or more frequent basis. The Company’s principal executive and financial officers have evaluated its disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2014, and have determined that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Table of Contents

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, there have been no changes in the internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, these internal controls over financial reporting.
