Defined terms used in this Report:



Annualized Rent	Annualized cash base rent (excluding tenant reimbursements, parking and other income) before abatements under leases commenced as of the reporting date. Annualized rent for our triple net office leases is calculated by adding expense reimbursements and estimates of normal building expenses paid by tenants to base rent. Annualized rent does not include lost rent recovered from insurance and rent for building management use.
Consolidated Portfolio	Includes the properties in our consolidated results, which includes the properties owned by our consolidated JVs.
Funds From Operations (FFO)	We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by NAREIT by excluding gains (or losses) on sales of investments in real estate, gains (or losses) from changes in control of investments in real estate, real estate depreciation and amortization (other than amortization of right-of-use assets for which we are the lessee and amortization of deferred loan costs) from our net income (including adjusting for the effect of such items attributable to consolidated joint ventures and unconsolidated real estate funds, but not for noncontrolling interests included in our Operating Partnership). FFO is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that we report because it is useful to our investors. See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 2 of this Report for a discussion of FFO.
Net Operating Income (NOI)	We calculate NOI as revenue less operating expenses attributable to the properties that we own and operate. NOI is calculated by excluding the following from our net income: general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization expense, other income, other expense, income, including depreciation, from unconsolidated real estate funds, interest expense, gains (or losses) on sales of investments in real estate and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. NOI is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that we report because it is useful to our investors. See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 2 of this Report for a discussion of our Same Property NOI.
Occupancy Rate	The percentage leased, excluding signed leases not yet commenced, as of the reporting date. Management space is considered leased and occupied, while space taken out of service during a repositioning is excluded from both the numerator and denominator for calculating percentage leased and occupied.
Recurring Capital Expenditures	Building improvements required to maintain revenues once a property has been stabilized, and excludes capital expenditures for (i) acquired buildings being stabilized, (ii) newly developed space, (iii) upgrades to improve revenues or operating expenses, (iv) casualty damage or (v) bringing the property into compliance with governmental requirements.
Rentable Square Feet	Based on the BOMA remeasurement and consists of leased square feet (including square feet with respect to signed leases not commenced as of the reporting date), available square feet, building management use square feet and square feet of the BOMA adjustment on leased space.
Same Properties	Our consolidated properties that have been owned and operated by us in a consistent manner, and reported in our consolidated results during the entire span of both periods being compared. We exclude from our same property subset any properties (i) acquired during the comparative periods; (ii) sold, held for sale, contributed or otherwise removed from our consolidated financial statements during the comparative periods; or (iii) that underwent a major repositioning project that we believed significantly affected its results during the comparative periods.
Short-Term Leases	Represents leases that expired on or before the reporting date or had a term of less than one year, including hold over tenancies, month to month leases and other short term occupancies.
Total Portfolio	Includes our Consolidated Portfolio plus the properties owned by our Funds.

Forward Looking Statements

This Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “approximate”, “intend”, “plan”, “would”, “could”, “may”, “future” or other similar expressions in this Report. We claim the protection of the safe harbor contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements used in this Report, or those that we make orally or in writing from time to time, are based on our beliefs and assumptions, as well as information currently available to us. Actual outcomes will be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors beyond our control or ability to predict. Although we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, they are not guarantees of future performance and some will inevitably prove to be incorrect. As a result, our future results can be expected to differ from our expectations, and those differences may be material. Accordingly, investors should use caution when relying on previously reported forward-looking statements, which were based on results and trends at the time they were made, to anticipate future results or trends. Some of the risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include the following:


•	adverse economic or real estate developments affecting Southern California or Honolulu, Hawaii;


•	competition from other real estate investors in our markets;


•	decreasing rental rates or increasing tenant incentive and vacancy rates;


•	defaults on, early terminations of, or non-renewal of leases by tenants;


•	increases in interest rates or operating costs;


•	insufficient cash flows to service our outstanding debt or pay rent on ground leases;


•	difficulties in raising capital;


•	inability to liquidate real estate or other investments quickly;


•	adverse changes to rent control laws and regulations;


•	environmental uncertainties;


•	natural disasters;


•	insufficient insurance, or increases in insurance costs;


•	inability to successfully expand into new markets and submarkets;


•	difficulties in identifying properties to acquire and failure to complete acquisitions successfully;


•	failure to successfully operate acquired properties;


•	risks associated with property development;


•	risks associated with JVs;


•	conflicts of interest with our officers and reliance on key personnel;


•	changes in zoning and other land use laws;


•	adverse results of litigation or governmental proceedings;


•	failure to comply with laws, regulations and covenants that are applicable to our properties;


•	possible terrorist attacks or wars;


•	possible cyber attacks or intrusions;


•	adverse changes to accounting rules;


•	weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting;


•	failure to maintain our REIT status under federal tax laws; and


•	adverse changes to tax laws, including those related to property taxes.

For further discussion of these and other risk factors see Item 1A. "Risk Factors” in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 . This Report and all subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Report.

1 . Overview

Organization and Business Description

Douglas Emmett, Inc. is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. We are one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii. Through our interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, consolidated JVs and unconsolidated Funds, we focus on owning, acquiring, developing and managing a significant market share of top-tier office properties and premier multifamily communities in neighborhoods that possess significant supply constraints, high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities. The terms "us," "we" and "our" as used in the financial statements refer to Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. At March 31, 2019 , our Consolidated Portfolio consisted of (i) a 16.5 million square foot office portfolio, (ii) 3,642 multifamily apartment units and (iii) fee interests in two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases. We also manage and own equity interests in unconsolidated Funds which, at March 31, 2019 , owned an additional 1.8 million square feet of office space. We manage our unconsolidated Funds alongside our Consolidated Portfolio, and we therefore present the statistics for our office portfolio on a Total Portfolio basis. As of March 31, 2019 , our portfolio (not including two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases), consisted of the following office and multifamily properties (both of which include ancillary retail space):



	Consolidated Portfolio	Total Portfolio
Office
Wholly-owned properties	53	53
Consolidated JV properties	10	10
Unconsolidated Fund properties	—	8
	63	71

Multifamily
Wholly-owned properties	10	10

Total	73	81

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements are the consolidated financial statements of Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership and our consolidated JVs. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in our consolidated financial statements. Our Operating Partnership and consolidated JVs are VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiary. As of March 31, 2019 , the total consolidated assets, liabilities and equity of the VIEs was $8.22 billion (of which $7.75 billion related to investment in real estate), $4.43 billion and $3.79 billion (of which $1.43 billion related to noncontrolling interests), respectively.

We report our office rental revenues and tenant recoveries on a combined basis as office Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in our consolidated statements of operations, and we reclassified the comparable periods to conform to the current period presentation.

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP may have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make their presentation not misleading. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements include, in our opinion, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information set forth therein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019 . The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the notes thereto. Any references to the number or class of properties, square footage, per square footage amounts, apartment units and geography, are outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm’s review of our financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.

2 . Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASUs that changed our accounting policy for leases. See "New Accounting Pronouncements" below. We have not made any other changes to our significant accounting policies disclosed in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Office parking revenues, which are included in office Parking and other income in our consolidated statements of operations, are within the scope of Topic 606 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers). Our lease contracts generally make a specified number of parking spaces available to the tenant, and we bill and recognize parking revenues on a monthly basis in accordance with the lease agreements, generally using the monthly parking rates in effect at the time of billing. Office parking revenues were $26.4 million and $25.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. Office parking receivables were $1.2 million and $1.1 million as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively, and are included in Tenant receivables in our consolidated balance sheets.

Income Taxes

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code. Provided that we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate-level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our stockholders that we derive from our REIT qualifying activities. We are subject to corporate-level tax on the earnings that we derive through our TRS.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Changes to GAAP are implemented by the FASB in the form of ASUs. We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Other than the ASUs discussed below, the FASB has not issued any other ASUs that we expect to be applicable and have a material impact on our financial statements.

ASUs Adopted

ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842 - "Leases")

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, (Topic 842 - "Leases"). The primary impact of the ASU is the recognition of lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet by lessees for leases classified as operating leases. The accounting applied by lessors is largely unchanged. For example, the vast majority of operating leases remain classified as operating leases, and lessors continue to recognize lease payments for those leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

We adopted the ASU on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method. We recorded a cumulative adjustment of $2.5 million to the opening balance of retained earnings (accumulated deficit) for leasing expenses related to leases that were entered into before the adoption date but commenced after the adoption date. The ASU provides a practical expedient package, which we elected to use, that allows entities (a) not to reassess whether any expired or existing contracts as of the adoption date are considered or contain leases; (b) not to reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date; and (c) not to reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases as of the adoption date. All leases entered into on or after the adoption date were accounted for under the ASU.

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)

We lease space to tenants at our office and multifamily properties. Under the ASU, all of our tenant leases continue to be classified as operating leases. The ASU continues to require that lease payments for operating leases be recognized over the lease term on a straight-line basis unless another systematic and rational basis is more representative of the pattern in which benefit is expected to be derived from the use of the underlying asset. If collectability of the lease payments is not probable at the commencement date, then the lease income should be limited to the lesser of the income recognized on a straight-line basis or cash basis. If the assessment of collectibility changes after the commencement date, any difference between the lease income that would have been recognized on a straight-line basis and cash basis must be recognized as a current-period adjustment to lease income.

The ASU requires separation of the lease from the non-lease components (for example, maintenance services or other activities that transfer a good or service to the customer) in a contract. Only the lease components are accounted for in accordance with the ASU. The consideration in the contract is allocated to the lease and non-lease components on a relative standalone selling price basis and the non-lease component would be accounted for in accordance with ASC 606 ("Revenue from Contracts with Customers"). In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11 which includes an optional practical expedient for lessors to elect, by class of underlying asset, to not separate the lease from the non-lease components if certain criteria are met. Our office tenant leases include a lease component for the rental income and a non-lease component for the related tenant recoveries. We determined that our office tenant leases qualify for the single component presentation and we adopted the practical expedient. We account for the combined components under the ASU.

Rental revenues and tenant recoveries from our office tenant leases is included in office Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in our consolidated statements of operations. Rental revenues from our multifamily tenant leases is included in multifamily Rental revenues in our consolidated statements of operations. Rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis in excess of billed rents is included in Deferred rent receivables in our consolidated balance sheets. See Note 14 for more information regarding the future lease rental receipts from our operating leases.

The ASU defines initial direct costs of a lease, which may be capitalized, as costs that would not have been incurred had the lease not been executed. Costs to negotiate a lease that would have been incurred regardless of whether the lease was executed, such as employee salaries, are not considered to be initial direct costs, and may not be capitalized. We historically capitalized most of our leasing costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 , we expensed $1.1 million of leasing costs related to our tenant leases that did not qualify as initial direct costs of a lease, which are included in General and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of operations.

We pay rent under a ground lease which expires on December 31, 2086 . Upon adoption of the ASU, we continued to classify the lease as an operating lease, and we recognized a right-of-use asset for the land and a lease liability for the future lease payments of $10.9 million . We calculated the carrying value of the right-of-use asset and lease liability by discounting the future lease payments using our incremental borrowing rate. We adjusted the right-of-use asset carrying value for a related above-market ground lease liability of $3.4 million , which reduced the carrying value of the asset to $7.5 million . We continued to recognize the lease payments as expense, which is included in Office expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 3 for more information regarding this ground lease. See Note 12 for the fair value disclosures related to the ground lease liability.

In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20, an update to ASU 2016-02, which provides guidance on accounting for sales and other similar taxes collected from lessees, certain lessor costs, and recognition of variable payments for contracts with lease and nonlease components. We adopted the ASU and it did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-01, an update to ASU 2016-02, which provides guidance on transition disclosures related to Topic 250 "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections" and other technical updates. We adopted the ASU and it did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

3 . Ground Lease

We pay rent under a ground lease located in Honolulu, Hawaii, which expires on December 31, 2086 . The rent is fixed at $733 thousand per year until February 28, 2029 , after which it will reset to the greater of the existing ground rent or market. As of March 31, 2019 , the right-of-use asset carrying value of this ground lease was $7.5 million and the ground lease liability was $10.9 million . We incurred ground rent expense of $180 thousand and $183 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, which is included in Office expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The table below, which assumes that the ground rent payments will continue to be $733 thousand per year after February 28, 2029 , presents the future minimum ground lease payments as of March 31, 2019 :

9 . Derivative Contracts

We make use of interest rate swap and cap contracts to manage the risk associated with changes in interest rates on our floating-rate debt. When we enter into a floating-rate term loan, we generally enter into an interest rate swap agreement for the equivalent principal amount, for a period covering the majority of the loan term, which effectively converts our floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis during that time. In limited instances, we also make use of interest rate caps to limit our exposure to interest rate increases on our floating-rate debt. We do not speculate in derivatives and we do not make use of any other derivative instruments. See Note 7 regarding our debt, and our consolidated JVs debt, that is hedged. See Note 15 regarding our unconsolidated Funds debt that is hedged.

Derivative Summary

As of March 31, 2019 , all of our interest rate swaps, which include the interest rate swaps of our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Funds, were designated as cash flow hedges:

We have agreements with each of our interest rate swap counterparties that contain a provision under which we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations if we default on the underlying indebtedness that we are hedging. As of March 31, 2019 , there have been no events of default with respect to our interest rate swaps or our consolidated JVs' or unconsolidated Funds' interest rate swaps. We do not post collateral for our interest rate swap contract liabilities. The fair value of our interest rate swap contract liabilities, including accrued interest and excluding credit risk adjustments, were as follows:

Counterparty Credit Risk

We are subject to credit risk from the counterparties on our interest rate swap contract assets because we do not receive collateral. We seek to minimize that risk by entering into agreements with a variety of high quality counterparties with investment grade ratings. The fair value of our interest rate swap contract assets, including accrued interest and excluding credit risk adjustments, were as follows:

10 . Equity

Transactions

During the three months ended March 31, 2019 , we (i) acquired 22 thousand OP Units in exchange for issuing an equal number of shares of our common stock to the holders of the OP Units and (ii) acquired 13 thousand OP Units for $507 thousand in cash.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , we (i) acquired 322 thousand OP Units in exchange for issuing an equal number of shares of our common stock to the holders of the OP Units and (ii) issued 14 thousand shares of our common stock for the exercise of 32 thousand stock options on a net settlement basis (net of the exercise price and related taxes).

Noncontrolling Interests

Our noncontrolling interests consist of interests in our Operating Partnership and consolidated JVs which are not owned by us. Noncontrolling interests in our Operating Partnership consist of OP Units and fully-vested LTIP Units, and represented approximately 14% of our Operating Partnership's total interests as of March 31, 2019 when we and our Operating Partnership had 170.2 million shares of common stock and 28.2 million OP Units and fully-vested LTIP Units outstanding, respectively. A share of our common stock, an OP Unit and an LTIP Unit (once vested and booked up) have essentially the same economic characteristics, sharing equally in the distributions from our Operating Partnership. Investors who own OP Units have the right to cause our Operating Partnership to acquire their OP Units for an amount of cash per unit equal to the market value of one share of our common stock at the date of acquisition, or, at our election, exchange their OP Units for shares of our common stock on a one-for-one b asis. LTIP Units have been granted to our key employees and non-employee directors as part of their compensation. These awards generally vest over a service period and once vested can generally be converted to OP Units provided our stock price increases by more than a specified hurdle.

Equity Compensation

On June 2, 2016, the Douglas Emmett 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan ("2016 Plan") became effective after receiving stockholder approval, superseding our prior plan, the Douglas Emmett 2006 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan ("2006 Plan"), both of which allow for awards to our directors, officers, employees and consultants. The key terms of the two plans are substantially identical, except for the date of expiration, the number of shares authorized for grants and various technical provisions. Grants after June 2, 2016 were awarded under the 2016 Plan, while grants prior to that date were awarded under the 2006 Plan (grants under the 2006 Plan remain outstanding according to their terms). Both plans are administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors.

Total net stock-based compensation expense was $2.6 million and $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. These amounts are net of capitalized stock-based compensation of $670 thousand and $452 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. There were no outstanding options during the three months ended March 31, 2019 . The intrinsic value of options exercised was $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 .

11 . EPS

We calculate basic EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. We calculate diluted EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive instruments outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. We account for unvested LTIP awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends as participating securities and include these securities in the computation of basic and diluted EPS using the two-class method. The table below presents the calculation of basic and diluted EPS:

12 . Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our estimates of the fair value of financial instruments were determined using available market information and widely used valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and determine an estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions or valuation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair values. The FASB fair value framework hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity, and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market-based inputs. The hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 - inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - inputs are observable either directly or indirectly for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.

Level 3 - inputs are unobservable assumptions generated by the reporting entity

As of March 31, 2019 , we did not have any fair value estimates of financial instruments using Level 3 inputs.

Financial instruments disclosed at fair value

Short term financial instruments: The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, revolving credit line, interest payable, accounts payable, security deposits and dividends payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Secured notes payable: See Note 7 for the details of our secured notes payable. We estimate the fair value of our consolidated secured notes payable by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of the principal and interest payments for each secured note payable. The calculation incorporates observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs, assumes that the loans will be outstanding through maturity, and excludes any maturity extension options. The table below presents the estimated fair value and carrying value of our secured notes payable (excluding our revolving credit facility), the carrying value includes unamortized loan premium and excludes unamortized deferred loan fees:

Fair value	$	4,100,464	$	4,087,979
Carrying value	$	4,062,741	$	4,062,968

Ground lease liability: See Note 3 for the details of our ground lease. We estimate the fair value of our ground lease liability by calculating the present value of the future lease payments disclosed in Note 3 using our incremental borrowing rate. The calculation incorporates observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs. The table below presents the estimated fair value and carrying value of our ground lease liability:

Financial instruments measured at fair value

Derivative instruments: See Note 9 for the details of our derivatives. We present our derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value, on a gross basis, excluding accrued interest. We estimate the fair value of our derivative instruments by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of the expected future cash flows of each derivative. The calculation incorporates the contractual terms of the derivatives, observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs, and credit risk adjustments to reflect the counterparty's as well as our own nonperformance risk. Our derivatives are not subject to master netting arrangements. The table below presents the estimated fair value of our derivatives:

13 . Segment Reporting

Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews information for operational decision-making purposes. We operate in two business segments: (i) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office real estate and (ii) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate. The services for our office segment primarily include rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The services for our multifamily segment include rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. Asset information by segment is not reported because we do not use this measure to assess performance or make decisions to allocate resources. Therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not allocated among segments. General and administrative expenses and interest expense are not included in segment profit as our internal reporting addresses these items on a corporate level. The table below presents the operating activity of our reportable segments:

14 . Future Minimum Lease Rental Receipts

We lease space to tenants primarily under non-cancelable operating leases that generally contain provisions for a base rent plus reimbursement of certain operating expenses, and we own fee interests in two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases.

The amounts assume that early termination options held by tenants are not exercised.

15 . Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Excluding ordinary, routine litigation incidental to our business, we are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that we believe would reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Concentration of Risk

We are subject to credit risk with respect to our tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables related to our tenant leases. Our tenants' ability to honor the terms of their respective leases remains dependent upon economic, regulatory and social factors. We seek to minimize our credit risk from our tenant leases by (i) targeting smaller, more affluent tenants, from a diverse mix of industries, (ii) performing credit evaluations of prospective tenants and (iii) obtaining security deposits or letters of credit from our tenants. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , no tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues.

All of our properties, including the properties of our consolidated JVs and unconsolidated Funds, are located in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii, and we are therefore susceptible to adverse economic and regulatory developments, as well as natural disasters, in those markets.

We are subject to credit risk with respect to our interest rate swap counterparties that we use to manage the risk associated with our floating rate debt. We do not post or receive collateral with respect to our swap transactions. See Note 9 for the details of our interest rate contracts. We seek to minimize our credit risk by entering into agreements with a variety of high quality counterparties with investment grade ratings.

We have significant cash balances invested in a variety of short-term money market funds that are intended to preserve principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing current income. These investments are not insured against loss of principal and there is no guarantee that our investments in these funds will be redeemable at par value. We also have significant cash balances in bank accounts with high quality financial institutions with investment grade ratings. Interest bearing bank accounts at each U.S. banking institution are insured by the FDIC up to $250 thousand .

Asset Retirement Obligations

Conditional asset retirement obligations represent a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement is conditional on a future event that may or may not be within our control. A liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation must be recorded if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. Environmental site assessments have identified twenty-eight buildings in our Consolidated Portfolio and four buildings owned by our unconsolidated Funds which contain asbestos, and would have to be removed in compliance with applicable environmental regulations if these properties are demolished or undergo major renovations. As of March 31, 2019 , the obligations to remove the asbestos from these properties if they were demolished or undergo major renovations have indeterminable settlement dates, and we are unable to reasonably estimate the fair value of the associated conditional asset retirement obligation. As of March 31, 2019 , the obligations to remove the asbestos from properties that are currently undergoing major renovations, or that we plan to renovate in the future, are not material to our financial statements.

Development and Other Contracts

In West Los Angeles, we are building a high-rise apartment building with 376 apartments. In downtown Honolulu, we are converting a 25 story, 490,000 square foot office tower into approximately 500 rental apartments. We expect the conversion to occur in phases over a number of years as the office space is vacated. As of March 31, 2019 , we had an aggregate remaining contractual commitment for these and other development projects of approximately $192.0 million . As of March 31, 2019 , we had an aggregate remaining contractual commitment for repositionings, capital expenditure projects and tenant improvements of approximately $40.2 million .

Guarantees

We have made certain environmental and other limited indemnities and guarantees covering customary non-recourse carve- outs for our unconsolidated Funds' debt. We have also guaranteed the related swaps. Our Funds have agreed to indemnify us for any amounts that we would be required to pay under these agreements. As of March 31, 2019 , all of the obligations under the related debt and swap agreements have been performed in accordance with the terms of those agreements. The table below summarizes our Funds' debt as of March 31, 2019 . The amounts represent 100% (not our pro-rata share) of the amounts related to our Funds:

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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes in Part I, Item 1 of this Report, and our Forward Looking Statements disclaimer.

Business Description

Douglas Emmett, Inc. is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. Through our interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Funds, we are one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties in Los Angeles County, California and in Honolulu, Hawaii. We focus on owning, acquiring, developing and managing a substantial share of top-tier office properties and premier multifamily communities in neighborhoods that possess significant supply constraints, high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities. As of March 31, 2019 , our portfolio consisted of the following:




	Consolidated Portfolio ⁽¹⁾	Total Portfolio ⁽²⁾
Office
Class A Properties ⁽³⁾	63	71
Rentable Square Feet (in thousands) ⁽⁴⁾	16,527	18,367

Units	3,642	3,642
Leased rate	99.6%	99.6%
Occupied rate	97.4%	97.4%

______________________________________________________________________

(1) Our Consolidated Portfolio includes the properties in our consolidated results. Through our subsidiaries, we own 100% of these properties except for ten office properties totaling 2.8 million square feet, which we own through three consolidated JVs. Our Consolidated Portfolio also includes two land parcels from which we receive ground rent from ground leases to the owners of a Class A office building and a hotel.

(2) Our Total Portfolio includes our Consolidated Portfolio as well as eight properties totaling 1.8 million square feet owned by our unconsolidated Funds. See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for more information about our unconsolidated Funds.

(3) Our office and multifamily portfolios include ancillary retail space.

(4) During the three months ended March 31, 2019 , we removed approximately 122,000 rentable square feet of vacant space at an office building we are converting to residential apartments.

Annualized rent

As of March 31, 2019 , annualized rent from our Consolidated Portfolio was derived as follows:

Financings, Developments and Repositionings

Financings

•

In March 2019, we renewed our $400 million revolving credit facility, releasing two previously encumbered properties, lowering the borrowing rate and unused facility fees, and extending the maturity date. The renewed facility bears interest at LIBOR + 1.15% and matures on August 21, 2023 . See Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for more information regarding our debt.

Developments

•

In West Los Angeles, we are building a 34 story high-rise apartment building with 376 apartments. The tower is being built on a site that is directly adjacent to our existing office building and a 712 unit residential property that we own. We expect the cost of the development to be approximately $180.0 million to $200.0 million , which does not include the cost of the land which we have owned since 1997 . As part of the project, we are investing additional capital to build a one acre park on Wilshire Boulevard that will be available to the public and provide a valuable amenity to our surrounding properties and community. We expect construction to take about 3 years.


•	At our Moanalua Hillside Apartments in Honolulu, we completed the construction of an additional 491 new apartments on 28 acres which now join our existing 680 apartments. We also invested additional capital to upgrade the existing buildings, improve the parking and landscaping, built a new leasing and management office, and constructed a new fitness center and two pools.

•

In downtown Honolulu, we are converting a 25 story, 490 thousand square foot office tower into approximately 500 rental apartments. We expect the conversion to occur in phases over a number of years as the office space is vacated. We currently estimate the construction costs to be approximately $80.0 million to $100.0 million , although the inherent uncertainties of development are compounded by the multi-year and phased nature of the conversion. Assuming timely approvals, we expect the first units to be delivered in 2020. This project will help address the severe shortage of rental housing in Honolulu and revitalize the central business district.

Repositionings

We often strategically purchase properties with large vacancies or expected near-term lease roll-over and use our knowledge of the property and submarket to reposition the property for the optimal use and tenant mix. The work we undertake to reposition a building typically takes months or even years, and could involve a range of improvements from a complete structural renovation to a targeted remodeling of selected spaces. We generally select a property for repositioning at the time we purchase it, although repositioning efforts can also occur at properties that we already own. During the repositioning, the affected property may display depressed rental revenue and occupancy levels which impacts our results and, therefore, comparisons of our performance from period to period.

(1)

Because straight-line rent takes into account the full economic value of each lease, including rent concessions and escalations, we believe that it may provide a better comparison than ending cash rents, which include the impact of the annual escalations over the entire term of the lease. However, care should be taken in any comparison, as the averages are often significantly affected from period to period by factors such as the buildings, submarkets, and types of space and terms involved in the leases executed during the respective reporting period.

Represents the average initial stabilized cash and straight-line rents on new and renewal leases signed during the quarter compared to the prior lease on the same space, excluding Short-Term Leases, leases where the prior lease was terminated more than a year before signing of the new lease, leases for tenants relocated from space being taken out of service, and leases in acquired buildings where we believe the information about the prior agreement is incomplete or where we believe base rent reflects other off-market inducements to the tenant that are not reflected in the prior lease document.


(2)	Our office rent roll can fluctuate from period to period as a result of changes in our submarkets, buildings and term of the expiring leases, making these metrics difficult to predict.


(3)	The percentage change for expiring cash rent represents the comparison between the starting cash rent on leases executed during the respective period and the expiring cash rent on the prior leases for the same space.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: FFO

Usefulness to Investors

We report FFO because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is also used by some investors to identify trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs from year to year, and to compare our performance with other REITs. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure for which we believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. FFO has limitations as a measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization of real estate, and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations. FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a measure of our liquidity or cash flow, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends. Other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to the FFO of other REITs. See "Results of Operations" above for a discussion of the items that impacted our net income.

Comparison of three months ended March 31, 2019 to three months ended March 31, 2018

For the three months ended March 31, 2019 , FFO increased by $7.1 million , or 7.4% , to $103.1 million , compared to $96.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 . The increase was primarily due to (i) an increase in operating income from our office and residential portfolios due to an increase in occupancy and rental rates, and (ii) the leasing of new units at our Moanalua Hillside Apartments development.

Reconciliation to GAAP

The table below reconciles our FFO (the FFO attributable to our common stockholders and noncontrolling interests in our Operating Partnership - which includes our share of our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Funds FFO) to net income attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with GAAP:

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: Same Property NOI

Usefulness to Investors

We report Same Property NOI to facilitate a comparison of our operations between reported periods. Many investors use Same Property NOI to evaluate our operating performance and to compare our operating performance with other REITs, because it can reduce the impact of investing transactions on operating trends. NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure for which we believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. We report NOI because it is a widely recognized measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is used by some investors to identify trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs and to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs. NOI has limitations as a measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization expense, and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations. Other REITs may not calculate Same Property NOI in the same manner. As a result, our Same Property NOI may not be comparable to the Same Property NOI of other REITs. Same Property NOI should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a measure of our liquidity or cash flow, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends.

Comparison of three months ended March 31, 2019 to three months ended March 31, 2018

As of March 31, 2019 , our Same Properties included 59 office properties, aggregating 15.3 million Rentable Square Feet, and 9 multifamily properties with an aggregate 2,640 units. The amounts presented include 100% (not our pro-rata share).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Short-term liquidity

Excluding acquisitions, development projects and debt refinancings, we expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through cash on hand, cash generated by operations and our revolving credit facility. See Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for more information regarding our revolving credit facility.

Long-term liquidity

Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions, development projects and debt refinancings. We do not expect to have sufficient funds on hand to cover these long-term cash requirements due to the requirement to distribute a substantial majority of our income on an annual basis imposed by REIT federal tax rules. We plan to meet our long-term liquidity needs through long-term secured non-recourse indebtedness, the issuance of equity securities, including common stock and OP Units, as well as property dispositions and JV transactions. We have an ATM program which would allow us, subject to market conditions, to sell up to $400 million of shares of common stock as of the date of this Report.

To mitigate the impact of changing interest rates on our cash flows from operations, we generally enter into interest rate swap agreements with respect to our loans with floating interest rates. These swap agreements generally expire between one to two years before the maturity date of the related loan, during which time we can refinance the loan without any interest penalty. See Notes 7 and 9 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for more information regarding our debt and derivative contracts, respectively.

Table of Contents

Contractual Obligations

See Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for information regarding our minimum future ground lease payments, Note 7 for information regarding our minimum future principal payments due on our secured notes payable and revolving credit facility, as well as the interest rates that determine our future periodic interest payments, and Note 15 for information regarding our contractual obligations related to our developments, capital expenditure projects and repositionings.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Unconsolidated Funds Debt

Our unconsolidated Funds have their own secured non-recourse debt, and we have made certain environmental and other limited indemnities and guarantees covering customary non-recourse carve-outs related to those loans. We have also guaranteed the related swaps. Our Funds have agreed to indemnify us for any amounts that we would be required to pay under these agreements. As of March 31, 2019 , all of the obligations under the respective loans and swap agreements have been performed in accordance with the terms of those agreements. See Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report.

Cash Flows

	(In thousands)

Net cash provided by operating activities ⁽¹⁾	$	132,489		$	117,617		$	14,872		12.6	%
Net cash used in investing activities ⁽²⁾	$	(61,838	)	$	(34,324	)	$	27,514		80.2	%
Net cash used in financing activities ⁽³⁾	$	(67,156	)	$	(76,382	)	$	(9,226	)	(12.1	)%

___________________________________________________

(1)

Our cash flows provided by operating activities are primarily dependent upon the occupancy and rental rates of our portfolio, the collectability of rent and recoveries from our tenants, and the level of our operating expenses and general and administrative expenses, and interest expense. The increase was primarily due to (i) an increase in operating income from our office and residential portfolios due to an increase in occupancy and rental rates, and (ii) the leasing of new units at our Moanalua Hillside Apartments development.


(2)	Our cash flows used in investing activities is generally used to fund property acquisitions, developments and redevelopment projects, and Recurring and non-Recurring Capital Expenditures. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $27.8 million in capital expenditures for improvements to real estate and developments.


(3)	Our cash flows used in financing activities are generally impacted by our borrowings and capital activities, as well as dividends and distributions paid to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $12.6 million in net repayments of borrowings.

Critical Accounting Policies

We adopted an ASU during the period covered by this Report that changed our accounting policy for leases - see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for a discussion of new accounting pronouncements. We have not made any other changes during the period covered by this Report to our critical accounting policies disclosed in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, and which requires us to make estimates of certain items, which affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. While we believe that our estimates are based upon reasonable assumptions and judgments at the time that they are made, some of our estimates could prove to be incorrect, and those differences could be material. Some of our estimates are subject to adjustment as we believe appropriate, based on revised estimates, and reconciliation to actual results when available.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We use derivative instruments to hedge interest rate risk related to our floating rate borrowings. However, our use of these instruments exposes us to credit risk from the potential inability of our counterparties to perform under the terms of those agreements. We attempt to minimize this credit risk by contracting with a variety of high-quality financial counterparties. See Notes 7 and 9 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for more information regarding our debt and derivatives. At March 31, 2019 , 5.9% of our consolidated debt was unhedged floating rate debt. A fifty-basis point change in the one month USD LIBOR interest rate would result in an annual impact to our earnings (through interest expense) of $1.2 million . We calculate interest sensitivity by multiplying the amount of unhedged floating rate debt by fifty-basis points.

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee ("ARRC") has proposed that the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") is the rate that represents best practice as the alternative to USD-LIBOR for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to USD-LIBOR. ARRC has proposed a paced market transition plan to SOFR from USD-LIBOR and organizations are currently working on industry wide and company specific transition plans as it relates to derivatives and cash markets exposed to USD-LIBOR. Our floating rate borrowings and derivative instruments are indexed to USD-LIBOR and we are monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2019 , the end of the period covered by this Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our CEO and CFO, regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) at the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on the foregoing, our CEO and CFO concluded, as of that time, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act (i) is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and our CFO, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Except for any additional relevant information disclosed in our public reports during 2019 , we are not aware of any other material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 .

Because we have changed our tax counsel, as set forth below we are amending the Tax Disclosures to reflect that change in counsel and the date of its opinion.

United States Federal Income Tax Considerations Update

The information in the following paragraph hereby supersedes and replaces the information included under the second paragraph under the heading “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations-Taxation of Our Company” in the Tax Disclosures:

“Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP (“Fried Frank”) has acted as our tax counsel in connection with the Base Prospectus and our election to be taxed as a REIT. Fried Frank has rendered an opinion to us, as of May 6, 2019, to the effect that, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2015, we have been organized and have operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code, and our proposed method of operation will enable us to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code. It must be emphasized that this opinion was based on various assumptions and representations as to factual matters, including representations made by us in a factual certificate provided by one of our officers. In addition, this opinion was based upon our factual representations set forth in the Base Prospectus. Moreover, our qualification and taxation as a REIT depend upon our ability to meet the various qualification tests imposed under the Code, which are discussed below, including

Table of Contents

through actual operating results, asset composition, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership, the results of which have not been and will not be reviewed by Fried Frank. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that our actual results of operation for any particular taxable year have satisfied or will satisfy those requirements. Further, the anticipated U.S. federal income tax treatment described herein may be changed, perhaps retroactively, by legislative, administrative or judicial action at any time. Fried Frank has no obligation to update its opinion subsequent to the date of such opinion.”

Conforming Changes

To make conforming changes arising from the aforementioned tax section updates, the information in the following paragraph hereby supersedes and replaces the information included under the heading “Validity of Securities” in the prospectus dated August 4, 2017 that forms a part of the August 4, 2017 Registration Statement:

“Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, the validity of any securities we issue under this prospectus will be passed upon for us by Venable LLP, Baltimore, Maryland. In addition, the description of material federal income tax consequences contained in this prospectus under the heading “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” is based upon the opinion of Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP, Washington, DC.”

Similarly, to make additional conforming changes, the information in the following paragraph hereby supersedes and replaces the information included under the heading “Legal Matters” in the prospectus supplement dated November 20, 2018 filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended:

“Venable LLP, Baltimore, Maryland, will pass upon certain matters relating to this offering for us, and Manatt, Phelps & Phillips, LLP, Los Angeles, California, is acting as our counsel in this offering. Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP, Washington, DC, is acting as our tax counsel in this offering. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Agents by Latham & Watkins LLP, Los Angeles, California. Additional or replacement counsel, if any, used by us or the Agents in this offering will be named in a prospectus supplement or other filing incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement that specifically references this offering.”

Finally, Exhibit 8.1 to this Report hereby supersedes and replaces Exhibit 8.1 that was filed as an exhibit to the August 4, 2017 Registration Statement.
