EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2025 of Veris Residential, Inc. and Veris Residential, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to the “Operating Partnership” mean Veris Residential, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and references to the “General Partner” mean Veris Residential, Inc., a Maryland corporation and real estate investment trust (“REIT”), and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership. References to the “Company,” "Veris," “we,” “us” and “our” mean collectively the General Partner, the Operating Partnership and those entities/subsidiaries consolidated by the General Partner.
The Operating Partnership conducts the business of providing management, leasing, acquisition, development and tenant-related services for its General Partner. The Operating Partnership, through its operating divisions and subsidiaries, including the Veris property-owning partnerships and limited liability companies, is the entity through which all of the General Partner’s operations are conducted. The General Partner is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and has exclusive control of the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management.
As of March 31, 2025, the General Partner owned an approximate 91.5 percent common unit interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining approximate 8.5 percent common unit interest is owned by limited partners. The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are (1) persons who contributed their interests in properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common units (each, a “Common Unit”) or preferred units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership or (2) recipients of long term incentive plan units of the Operating Partnership pursuant to the General Partner’s executive compensation plans.
A Common Unit of the Operating Partnership and a share of common stock of the General Partner (the “Common Stock”) have substantially the same economic characteristics in as much as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss of the Company. The General Partner owns a number of common units of the Operating Partnership equal to the number of issued and outstanding shares of the General Partner’s common stock. Common unitholders (other than the General Partner) have the right to redeem their Common Units, subject to certain restrictions under the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating Partnership, as amended (the “Partnership Agreement”) and agreed upon at the time of issuance of the units that may restrict such right for a period of time, generally one year from issuance. The redemption is required to be satisfied in shares of Common Stock of the General Partner, cash, or a combination thereof, calculated as follows: one share of the General Partner’s Common Stock, or cash equal to the fair market value of a share of the General Partner’s Common Stock at the time of redemption, for each Common Unit. The General Partner, in its sole discretion, determines the form of redemption of Common Units (i.e., whether a common unitholder receives Common Stock of the General Partner, cash, or any combination thereof). If the General Partner elects to satisfy the redemption with shares of Common Stock of the General Partner as opposed to cash, the General Partner is obligated to issue shares of its Common Stock to the redeeming unitholder. Regardless of the rights described above, the common unitholders may not put their units for cash to the Company or the General Partner under any circumstances. With each such redemption, the General Partner’s percentage ownership in the Operating Partnership will increase. In addition, whenever the General Partner issues shares of its Common Stock other than to acquire Common Units, the General Partner must contribute any net proceeds it receives to the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership must issue to the General Partner an equivalent number of Common Units. This structure is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT.
The Company believes that combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the General Partner and the Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:
•enhance investors’ understanding of the General Partner and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business of the Company;
•eliminate duplicative disclosure and provide a more streamlined and readable presentation because a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both the General Partner and the Operating Partnership; and
•create time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.
The Company believes it is important to understand the few differences between the General Partner and the Operating Partnership in the context of how they operate as a consolidated company. The financial results of the Operating Partnership are consolidated into the financial statements of the General Partner. The General Partner does not have any significant assets, liabilities or operations, other than its interests in the Operating Partnership, nor does the Operating Partnership have employees of its own. The Operating Partnership, not the General Partner, generally executes all
significant business relationships other than transactions involving the securities of the General Partner. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of the assets of the General Partner, including ownership interests in joint ventures. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for the net proceeds from equity offerings by the General Partner, which are contributed to the capital of the Operating Partnership in consideration of common or preferred units in the Operating Partnership, as applicable, the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by the Company’s business. These sources include working capital, net cash provided by operating activities, borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility, the issuance of secured and unsecured debt and equity securities, and proceeds received from the disposition of properties and joint ventures.
Shareholders’ equity, partners’ capital and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the General Partner and the Operating Partnership. The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners’ capital in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements as is the General Partner’s interest in the Operating Partnership. The noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements comprise the interests of unaffiliated partners in various consolidated partnerships and development joint venture partners. The noncontrolling interests in the General Partner’s financial statements are the same noncontrolling interests at the Operating Partnership’s level and include limited partners of the Operating Partnership. The differences between shareholders’ equity and partners’ capital result from differences in the equity issued at the General Partner and Operating Partnership levels.
To help investors better understand the key differences between the General Partner and the Operating Partnership, certain information for the General Partner and the Operating Partnership in this report has been separated, as set forth below:
•Item 1. Financial Statements (unaudited), which includes the following specific disclosures for Veris Residential, Inc. and Veris Residential, L.P.:

This report also includes separate Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures sections and separate Exhibits 31 and 32 certifications for each of the General Partner and the Operating Partnership in order to establish that the requisite certifications have been made and that the General Partner and Operating Partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

Unless stated otherwise or the context requires, the “Company” refers to the General Partner and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company owned or had interests in 22 multifamily rental properties, as well as non-core assets comprised of three parking/retail properties, plus developable land (collectively, the "Properties"). The Properties are comprised of: (a) 19 wholly-owned or Company-controlled properties comprised of 16 multifamily properties and three non-core assets, plus developable land and (b) six multifamily properties and one developable land parcel owned by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has investment interests.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all accounts of the Company, including its controlled subsidiaries, which consist principally of the Operating Partnership and variable interest entities for which the Company has determined itself to be the primary beneficiary, if any. The portions of equity in consolidated subsidiaries that are not attributable, directly or indirectly, to us are presented as noncontrolling interests. See Note 2 to the 2024 10-K: Significant Accounting Policies – Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, for the Company’s treatment of unconsolidated joint venture interests. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
The Company consolidates variable interest entities ("VIEs") in which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary. VIEs are entities in which the equity investors do not have sufficient equity at risk to finance their endeavors without additional financial support or that the holders of the equity investment at risk do not have a controlling financial interest. The primary beneficiary is defined by the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company continuously assesses its determination of the primary beneficiary for each entity and assesses reconsideration events that may cause a change in the original determinations. The Operating Partnership is considered a VIE of the parent company, Veris Residential, Inc. As the Operating Partnership is already consolidated in the balance sheets of Veris Residential, Inc., this has no impact on the consolidated financial statements of Veris Residential, Inc.
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s investments in consolidated real estate joint ventures, which are variable interest entities in which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary, have total real estate assets of $438.2 million and $442.4 million, respectively, other assets of $5.7 million and $5.6 million, respectively, mortgages of $283.5 million and $284.1 million, respectively, and other liabilities of $15.2 million.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts in order to conform with current period presentation, primarily related to classification of certain properties as discontinued operations.
During 2024, the Company revised the terminology used for certain financial statement line items to better align with its operational activities and provide a clearer representation of the nature of its business. The Company has renamed financial
statement line items “Real estate services” and “Real estate services expenses” on the Consolidated Statements of Operations as “Management fees” and “Property management,” respectively. The change in terminology does not impact the amounts reported in the financial statements. Comparative periods have been renamed to reflect this change for consistency.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as certain disclosures in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that would duplicate those included in the 10-K are not included in these financial statements.
Dividends and Distributions Payable
The Board of Directors considers a variety of factors when setting the Company's dividends including the Company’s earnings, income tax projections, cash flows, financial condition, capital requirements, debt maturities, the availability of debt and equity capital, applicable REIT and legal restrictions, economic conditions and other factors.
On February 27, 2025, the Company declared a $0.08 dividend per common share, which was paid on April 10, 2025 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 31, 2025.
At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the balance of the distributions payable was $8.5 million.
Impact of Recently-Issued Accounting Standards
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"). The guidance requires disclosing disaggregated information about certain income statement expense captions but does not change the presentation of expense information or expense captions reported on the face of the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027; early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The amounts reflected in the following tables (except for the Company’s share of equity in earnings) are based on the historical financial information of the individual joint ventures. The Company does not record losses of the joint ventures in excess of its investment balances unless the Company is liable for the obligations of the joint venture or is otherwise committed to provide financial support to the joint venture. The outside basis portion of the Company’s investments in joint ventures is amortized over the anticipated useful lives of the underlying ventures’ tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
The debt of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures generally is non-recourse to the Company, except for customary exceptions pertaining to such matters as intentional misuse of funds, environmental conditions, and material misrepresentations.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate caps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an up-front premium.
The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. During the next 12 months, the Company estimates $1.3 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had six interest rate caps outstanding and in effect with a notional amount of $441.5 million designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, and one undesignated interest rate cap outstanding and in effect with a notional amount of $150.0 million.
The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (dollars in thousands):

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company either defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. Specifically, the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company's default on the indebtedness.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company did not have any interest rate derivatives in a net liability position.

8. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY AND TERM LOANS
On April 22, 2024, the Company entered into a revolving credit and term loan agreement (the "2024 Credit Agreement") with a group of eight lenders that provides for a $300 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the "2024 Revolving Credit Facility") and a $200 million senior secured term loan facility (the "2024 Term Loan").
The terms of the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility include: (1) a three-year term ending in April 2027, subject to one twelve-month extension option; (2) revolving credit loans may be made to the Company in an aggregate principal amount of up to $300 million; (3) a first priority lien on no fewer than five properties with an aggregate appraised value of at least $900 million, initially consisting of (i) The James; and the following additional identified properties to be added to the collateral pool at a subsequent date, (ii) 145 Front at City Square; (iii) Signature Place; (iv) Soho Lofts; and (v) Liberty Towers (collectively, the “Collateral Pool Properties”); and (4) a commitment fee payable quarterly ranging from 25 basis points to 35 basis points per annum on the daily unused amount of the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility.
The terms of the 2024 Term Loan included: (1) a three-year term ending in April 2027, subject to one twelve-month extension option; (2) up to three delayed draws prior to April 22, 2025 of the term loan commitments up to an aggregate principal amount of $200 million; (3) a first priority lien in the Collateral Pool Properties; and (iv) a ticking fee payable quarterly equal to 35 basis points per annum on the daily unused amount of the 2024 Term Loan Facility.
The Company may request increases in the principal amount of the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility and/or new term loans under the 2024 Term Loan Facility in an aggregate amount of up to $200 million, which shall be subject to commercially reasonable syndication efforts.
Interest on borrowings under the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility and the 2024 Term Loan shall be based on applicable interest rate (the “Interest Rate”) plus a margin ranging from 100 basis points to 200 basis points (the “Applicable Rate”) depending on the Interest Rate elected. With respect to borrowings under the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility and the 2024 Term Loan, the Interest Rate shall be either (A) the Alternative Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate and/or (B) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus the Applicable Rate or, with respect to the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility only, (C) the Adjusted Daily Effective SOFR Rate plus the Applicable Rate. As used herein: “Alternative Base Rate” means, subject to a floor of 1.00%, the highest of (i) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal in the U.S. as the prime rate in effect (the “Prime Rate”), (ii) the NYFRB Rate from time to time plus 0.5% and (iii) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for a one month interest period plus 1%; “Adjusted Term SOFR Rate” means, subject to a floor of 0.0%, the Term SOFR Rate, plus 10 basis points; and “Adjusted Daily Effective SOFR Rate” means, subject to a floor of 0.0%, for any day, the secured overnight financing rate for such business day published by the NYFRB on the NYFRB’s on the immediately succeeding business day (“SOFR”) plus 10 basis points.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company successfully met Sustainable KPI provisions as defined within the 2024 Credit Agreement, that resulted in a 5 basis point spread reduction for all borrowings on the Term Loan and Revolver, and a 1 basis point reduction on the commitment fee on the daily unused amount of the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility.
The General Partner and certain subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership are the guarantors of the obligations of the Operating Partnership under the 2024 Credit Agreement, and certain subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership also granted the lenders a security interest in certain subsidiary guarantors in order to further secure the obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of the Operating Partnership under the 2024 Credit Agreement.
The 2024 Credit Agreement includes certain restrictions and covenants which limit, among other things the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the incurrence of liens and the disposition of real estate properties, and which require compliance with financial ratios (prior to the Operating Partnership’s election of equity-secured financial covenants) relating to (a) the maximum total leverage ratio (65%), (b) the minimum debt service coverage ratio (1.25 times), (c) the minimum tangible net worth ratio (80% of tangible net worth as of April 22, 2024 plus 80% of net cash proceeds of equity issuances by the General Partner or the Operating Partnership), (d) the maximum unhedged variable rate debt ratio (30%), and (e) financial ratios (after the Operating Partnership's election of equity-secured financial covenants) relating to (i) the maximum total leverage ratio (60 percent), (ii) the minimum debt service coverage ratio (1.50 times), (iii) the minimum tangible net worth ratio (80% of tangible net worth as of April 22, 2024 plus 80% of net cash proceeds of equity issuances by the General Partner or the Operating Partnership), and (iv) the maximum unhedged variable rate debt ratio (30%).
As of March 31, 2025, the outstanding principal balances of the 2024 Term Loan and 2024 Revolving Credit Facility were $200 million and $148 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, the effective interest rate applicable to the 2024 Credit Facility was 6.23%.
As of March 31, 2025, The James, 145 Front at City Square, Soho Lofts, Signature Place, and Liberty Towers are encumbered by the Company's credit facilities, with a total carrying value of approximately $0.9 billion.

10. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT 401(k) PLANS
Employees of the General Partner, who meet certain minimum age and service requirements, are eligible to participate in the Veris Residential, Inc. 401(k) Savings/Retirement Plan (the “401(k) Plan”). Eligible employees may elect to defer from one percent up to 60 percent of their annual compensation on a pre-tax basis to the 401(k) Plan, subject to certain limitations imposed by federal law. The Company may make discretionary matching or profit sharing contributions to the 401(k) Plan on behalf of eligible participants in any plan year. Participants are always 100 percent vested in their pre-tax and post-tax contributions, as well as any matching or profit sharing contributions made on their behalf by the Company. All contributions are allocated as a percentage of compensation of the eligible participants for the Plan year. The assets of the 401(k) Plan are held in trust and a separate account is established for each participant. Total expense recognized by the Company for the 401(k) Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
11. DISCLOSURE OF FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
The following disclosure of estimated fair value was determined by management using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the assets and liabilities at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Cash equivalents, receivables, notes receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair values as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, consisting of the credit facility, mortgages, loans payable and other obligations aggregated approximately $1.6 billion as compared to the book value of approximately $1.7 billion as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was valued using level 3 inputs (as provided by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures). The fair value was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of the mortgage debt was determined by discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments by a market rate.
Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivative financial instruments fall within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivative financial instruments utilize level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. The Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivative financial instruments. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative financial instruments valuations in their entirety are classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis (Including Impairment Charges)
The fair value measurements used in the evaluation of the Company’s rental properties for impairment analysis are considered to be Level 3 valuations within the fair value hierarchy, as there are significant unobservable assumptions. Assumptions that were utilized in the fair value calculations include, but are not limited to, discount rates, market capitalization rates, expected lease rental rates, third-party broker information and information from potential buyers, as applicable.
Valuations of real estate identified as held for sale are based on estimated sale prices, net of estimated selling costs, of such property. In the absence of an executed sales agreement with a set sales price, management’s estimate of the net sales price may be based on a number of unobservable assumptions, including, but not limited to, the Company’s estimates of future cash flows, market capitalization rates and discount rates, if applicable. For developable land, an estimated per-unit market value assumption is also considered based on development rights or plans for the land.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $3.2 million on one
developable land parcel located in Weehawken, NJ based upon its estimated selling price. The impairment charge was recorded in Land and other impairments, net, on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations.
There were no impairment charges recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

(e)The annual PILOT is equal to 10 percent of Gross Revenues for years 1-10, 11.5 percent for years 11-21 and 12.5 percent for years 22-30, as defined.
At the conclusion of the above-referenced agreements, it is expected that the properties will be assessed by the municipality and be subject to real estate taxes at the then prevailing rates.
LITIGATION
The Company is a defendant in litigation arising in the normal course of its business activities. Management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a materially adverse effect upon the Company’s financial condition taken as whole.
In 2024, the Company identified potential contingent liabilities related to reverse real estate tax appeals for certain previously-sold land parcels located in Jersey City, NJ. In accordance with ASC 450, the Company evaluated the estimability and probability of these potential obligations and recorded a contingent liability of $2.1 million, inclusive of associated legal costs, in Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The ultimate resolution of these matters may result in recognition of amounts different from the accrued amount, and the timing of the ultimate resolution of these contingent liabilities is uncertain. The Company will continue to monitor developments and adjust the estimated liability as new information becomes available.
On April 23, 2025, the Company was named as a defendant in a case brought by the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey alleging antitrust violations by RealPage, Inc., a seller of revenue management software and owners and/or operators of multifamily housing, including us, which utilize this software. Although we have not been served with a copy of the complaint, we understand from media reports that the complaint alleges collusion among the defendants to fix rents in violation of the Sherman Act, the New Jersey Antitrust Act, and the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act. We believe this
lawsuit is without merit and we intend to vigorously defend against it. As this proceeding is in the early stages, it is not possible for the Company to predict the outcome nor is it possible to estimate the amount of loss, if any, which may be associated with an adverse decision in any of this matter.
OFFICE AND GROUND LEASE AGREEMENTS
Future minimum rental payments under the terms of all non-cancelable office and ground leases under which the Company is the lessee, as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, are as follows (dollars in thousands):

| | |
Total | | $ | 6,544 |
Office and ground lease expenses incurred by the Company amounted to $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
The Company had capitalized operating leases for one office and two ground leases, which had balances of $3.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively, at March 31, 2025. Such amounts represent the net present value (“NPV”) of future payments detailed above. The one office and two ground leases used incremental borrowing rates of 6.0 percent and 7.6 percent, respectively, to arrive at the NPV and have weighted average remaining lease terms of 3.0 years and 76.4 years, respectively. These rates were arrived at by adjusting the fixed rates of the Company’s mortgage debt with debt having terms approximating the remaining lease term of the Company’s office and ground leases and calculating notional rates for fully-collateralized loans.
OTHER
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company determined that the applicable conditions required to earn the stay-on award agreements with 20 employees were satisfied, and as a result, the corresponding cash and stock awards were deemed
earned and payable. The total cost of such awards was approximately $2.6 million, including the issuance of 42,095 shares of the Company’s common stock, of which $1.3 million was recorded in each General and administrative and Property management expenses, on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had outstanding letters of credits totaling $3.7 million issued in connection with
insurance requirements and for environmental financial assurance, collateralized by the available balance on the 2024
Credit Agreement.

ATM PROGRAM
On November 15, 2023, the Company reestablished a continuous “at-the-market” offering program (“ATM Program”) with a syndicate of banks, pursuant to which shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $100 million may be sold (i) directly through or to the banks acting as sales agents or as principal for their own accounts or (ii) through or to participating banks or their affiliates acting as forward sellers on behalf of any forward purchasers pursuant to a forward sale agreement (“ATM Forwards”). Effective as of that date, the Company terminated a prior ATM Program that was established on December 13, 2021, under which we were able to offer and sell shares of our common stock from time to time, up to an aggregate gross sales price of $200 million, with a syndicate of banks. As of March 31, 2025, the Company sold 133,759 shares pursuant to the ATM Program, generating net proceeds of $1.8 million.
SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM
On February 19, 2025, the Board of Directors approved a $100 million share repurchase program over the next two years, with share repurchases under the new program authorized to begin on March 26, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company did not repurchase any shares.
DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT AND STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
The General Partner has a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the “DRIP”) which commenced in March 1999 under which approximately 5.4 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock have been reserved for future issuance. The DRIP provides for automatic reinvestment of all or a portion of a participant’s dividends from the General Partner’s shares of common stock. The DRIP also permits participants to make optional cash investments up to $5,000 a month without restriction and, if the Company waives this limit, for additional amounts subject to certain restrictions and other conditions set forth in the DRIP prospectus filed as part of the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC for the approximately 5.4 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock reserved for issuance under the DRIP.
INCENTIVE STOCK PLAN
In May 2013, the General Partner established the 2013 Incentive Stock Plan under which a total of 4,600,000 shares has been reserved for issuance. In June 2021, stockholders of the Company approved the Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Stock Plan (as so amended and restated, the "2013 Plan") to increase the total shares reserved for issuance under the plan from 4,600,000 to 6,565,000 shares.
In June 2024, stockholders of the Company approved the termination of the 2013 Plan and the establishment of the 2024 Incentive Stock Plan (the "2024 Plan"), under which a total of 2,885,207 shares has been reserved for issuance. No new awards will be granted under the 2013 Plan.
Stock Options
As of March 31, 2025, the Company has 2,330,000 options granted and outstanding, of which 2,246,666 are vested.
No stock options exercised under any stock option plans for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company has a policy of issuing new shares to satisfy stock option exercises.
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the stock options outstanding had a weighted average remaining contractual life of approximately 2.3 years and 2.6 years, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $17 thousand
unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options granted under the Company’s stock compensation plans.
The Company recognized stock compensation expense related to stock options of $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Restricted Stock Awards
The Company has issued Restricted Stock Awards ("RSAs") in the form of restricted stock units to non-employee members of the Board of Directors, which allow the holders to each receive shares of the Company’s common stock following a one-year vesting period. Vesting of the RSAs issued is based on time and service. On June 26, 2024, the Company issued RSAs to non-employee members of the Board of Directors, of which 71,232 unvested RSAs were outstanding at March 31, 2025.
The Company recognized stock compensation expense related to RSAs of $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $0.2 million unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSAs granted under the Company’s stock compensation plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.2 years.
All currently outstanding and unvested RSAs provided to the non-employee members of the Board of Directors were issued under the 2024 Plan.
Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards
The Company has granted long-term incentive plans awards (“LTIP Awards”) to executive officers, senior management, and certain other employees of the Company. LTIP Awards generally are granted in the form of restricted stock units (each, an “RSU” and collectively, the “RSU LTIP Awards”) and constitute awards under the 2013 Plan and 2024 Plan.
A portion of the RSUs are subject to time-based vesting conditions and will vest over a three-year period ("TRSUs"). As of March 31, 2025, there are 814,863 TRSUs outstanding and unvested.
Additionally, in April 2022, the General Partner granted 59,707 TRSUs subject to time-vesting conditions, vesting over three years, to three executive officers as “inducement awards” intended to comply with New York Stock Exchange Rule 303A.08. As of March 31, 2025, there are 14,467 TRSUs classified as inducement awards outstanding and unvested.
Another portion of the annual LTIP Awards have market-based vesting conditions ("PRSUs"), and recipients will only earn the full amount of the PRSUs if, over the three-year performance period, the General Partner achieves an absolute Total Shareholder Return ("TSR") target and if the General Partner’s relative TSR as compared to a group of peer REITs ("Peer Group") exceeds certain thresholds. Depending on the results achieved during the three-year performance periods, the
actual number of shares that a grant recipient receives at the end of the period may range from 0% to 160% of the shares
granted. The market-based award targets are determined annually by the compensation committee of the Board of Directors. As of March 31, 2025, there are 857,165 PRSUs outstanding and unvested.
In addition, the Company has granted RSUs with a three-year cliff vest subject to the achievement of adjusted funds from operations targets ("OPRSUs"). As of March 31, 2025, there are 867,907 OPRSUs outstanding and unvested.
The fair value of the RSU LTIP Awards are based on the fair value of the underlying shares on the date of grant. The fair
value of the PRSUs that relate to a TSR performance objective was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis.
The expected volatility of the common stock is estimated based on the historical volatility rate for the preceding three-year
performance period. The dividend yield assumption was based on anticipated dividend payouts.
The Company recognized stock compensation expense related to LTIP awards of $2.9 million and $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $17.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested LTIP Awards granted under the Company’s stock compensation plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 2.4 years.
All currently outstanding and unvested RSU LTIP Awards provided to the executive officers, senior management, and certain other employees were issued under the 2013 Plan, 2024 Plan or as inducement awards.
Deferred Stock Compensation Plan For Directors
The Amended and Restated Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors, which commenced January 1, 1999, allows non-employee directors of the Company to elect to defer up to 100 percent of their annual retainer fee into deferred stock units. The deferred stock units are convertible into an equal number of shares of common stock upon the directors’ termination of service from the Board of Directors or a change in control of the Company, as defined in the plan. Deferred stock units are credited to each director quarterly using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the applicable dividend record date for the respective quarter. Each participating director’s account is also credited for an equivalent amount of deferred stock units based on the dividend rate for each quarter.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, deferred stock units earned were 6,320 and 7,109, respectively. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were 110,635 and 104,315 deferred stock units outstanding, respectively.
EARNINGS PER SHARE/UNIT
Basic EPS or EPU excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders or unitholders by the weighted average number of shares or units outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS or EPU reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into
common stock. In the calculation of basic and diluted EPS and EPU, a redemption value adjustment of redeemable noncontrolling interests attributable to common shareholders or unitholders is included in the calculation to arrive at the numerator of net income (loss) available to common shareholders or unitholders.
The following information presents the Company’s results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

15. NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS IN SUBSIDIARIES
Noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries in the accompanying consolidated financial statements relate to (i) common units (“Common Units”) and LTIP units in the Operating Partnership, held by parties other than the General Partner (“Limited Partners”), and (ii) interests in consolidated joint ventures for the portion of such ventures not owned by the Company.
The following table reflects the activity of noncontrolling interests for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Balance at March 31 | | $ | 128,691 | | | $ | 139,985 | | | | | |
Pursuant to ASC 810, Consolidation, on the accounting and reporting for noncontrolling interests and changes in ownership interests of a subsidiary, changes in a parent’s ownership interest (and transactions with noncontrolling interests unitholders in the subsidiary) while the parent retains its controlling interest in its subsidiary should be accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying value of the noncontrolling interests shall be adjusted to reflect the change in its ownership interest in the subsidiary, with the offset to equity attributable to the parent. Accordingly, as a result of equity transactions which caused changes in ownership percentages between Veris Residential, Inc. stockholders’ equity and noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company has decreased noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership and increased additional paid-in capital in Veris Residential, Inc. stockholders’ equity by approximately $0.3 million as of March 31, 2025.
NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS IN OPERATING PARTNERSHIP (applicable only to General Partner)
Common Units
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company redeemed 43,033 common units for common shares, at their fair value of $0.5 million, and redeemed 9,271 common units for cash, at their fair vale of $0.1 million.
Certain individuals and entities own common units in the Operating Partnership. A common unit and a share of Common Stock of the General Partner have substantially the same economic characteristics in as much as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss of the Operating Partnership. Common unitholders have the right to redeem their common
units, subject to certain restrictions. The redemption is required to be satisfied in shares of Common Stock, cash, or a combination thereof, calculated as follows: one share of the General Partner’s Common Stock, or cash equal to the fair market value of a share of the General Partner’s Common Stock at the time of redemption, for each common unit. The General Partner, in its sole discretion, determines the form of redemption of common units (i.e., whether a common unitholder receives Common Stock, cash, or any combination thereof). If the General Partner elects to satisfy the redemption with shares of Common Stock as opposed to cash, it is obligated to issue shares of its Common Stock to the redeeming unitholder. Regardless of the rights described above, the common unitholders may not put their units for cash to the General Partner or the Operating Partnership under any circumstances. When a unitholder redeems a common unit, noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership is reduced and Veris Residential, Inc. Stockholders’ equity is increased.
Noncontrolling Interests Ownership in Operating Partnership
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the noncontrolling interests common unit and LTIP unit holders owned 8.5 percent of the Operating Partnership.
NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS IN CONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES (applicable to General Partner and Operating Partnership)
The Company consolidates certain joint ventures in which it has ownership interests. Various entities and/or individuals hold noncontrolling interests in these ventures.
PARTICIPATION RIGHTS
The Company’s interests in a potential future development provides for the initial distributions of net cash flow solely to the Company, and thereafter, other parties have participation rights in 50 percent of the excess net cash flow remaining after the distribution to the Company of the aggregate amount equal to the sum of: (a) the Company’s capital contributions, plus (b) an IRR of 10 percent per annum.
16. SEGMENT REPORTING
Upon completion of the sale of the last remaining non-strategic office asset in the first quarter of 2024, the Company reassessed its reportable segments. The Company operates as a single business segment, focusing on the ownership, operation and development of its multifamily real estate portfolio located in the United States. The chief operating decision maker, identified as the Chief Executive Officer, is regularly provided with financial reporting packages which include the financial statements presented herein.
The chief operating decision maker evaluates the performance of the Company on a consolidated basis, based upon consolidated Net loss, to make decisions about the Company’s operations and resource allocation. Consolidated Net loss is used to monitor budget versus actual results, and in competitive analysis by benchmarking to the Company’s competitors. The significant expenses of the Company are presented within the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Veris Residential, Inc. and Veris Residential, L.P. and the notes thereto (collectively, the “Financial Statements”). Certain defined terms used herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Financial Statements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies – to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Certain of these accounting policies require judgment and the use of estimates and assumptions when applying these policies in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate these estimates and judgments based on historical experience as well as other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates are subject to change in the future if underlying assumptions or factors change. Certain accounting policies, while significant, may not require the use of estimates. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
Impairment
On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators, including property operating performance, changes in anticipated holding period, and general market conditions, that the value of the Company’s rental properties held for use may be impaired. A property’s value is considered impaired when the expected undiscounted cash flows for a property are less than its carrying value. If there are different potential outcomes for a property, the Company will take a probability weighted approach to estimating future cash flows. To the extent impairment has occurred, the impairment loss is measured as the excess of the carrying value of the property over the estimated fair value of the property. Estimated fair values which are based on discounted cash flow models include all estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are based upon unobservable rates that the Company believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates. In addition, such cash flow models consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition and other factors. To the extent impairment has occurred, the carrying value of the property would be adjusted to an amount to reflect the estimated fair value of the property.
The Company generally considers assets (as identified by their disposal groups) to be held for sale when the transaction has received appropriate corporate authority, it is probable that the disposition will occur within one year and there are no significant contingencies relating to a sale. When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the fair value. If the fair value of the assets, less estimated cost to sell, is less than the carrying value of the assets, an adjustment to the carrying value would be recognized and recorded within the Unrealized gains (losses) on disposition of rental property to reflect the estimated fair value of the assets. The Company will continue to review the property for subsequent changes in the fair value, and may recognize an additional impairment charge, if warranted.
In addition, on a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators, including the underlying investment property operating performance and general market conditions, that the value of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures may be impaired. An investment is impaired only if management’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying value of the investment over the estimated fair value of the investment. Estimated fair values which are based on discounted cash flow models include all estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are based upon unobservable rates that the Company believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as certain disclosures in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that would duplicate those included in the 10-K are not included in these financial statements.

Operating services. Operating services decreased $1.6 million, or 12.5 percent, due primarily to reduced insurance costs and reduced operating expenses at Liberty Towers during the renovation project.
Property management. Property management decreased $0.9 million, or 16.3 percent, due primarily to the satisfaction of stay-on award conditions in 2024. See Note 12: Commitments and Contingencies to the Financial Statements.
General and administrative. General and administrative decreased $1.0 million, or 9.2 percent, due primarily to the satisfaction of stay-on award conditions in 2024. See Note 12: Commitments and Contingencies to the Financial Statements.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $1.1 million, or 5.6 percent, due to additional capital expenditures.
Land and other impairments, net. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company recorded $3.2 million of impairment on a developable land parcel.
Interest expense. Interest expense increased $1.5 million or 6.8 percent, primarily due to interest expense incurred on the 2024 Term Loan and the higher strike rate of the replacement interest-rate cap that hedges the Upton mortgage loan, partially offset by lower interest expense as a result of the payoff of mortgage loans in 2024.
Interest and other investment income. Interest income decreased $0.5 million, or 95.4 percent primarily related to interest income earned on higher cash balances in 2024.
Equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated joint ventures. Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $3.6 million, or 1412.6 percent due primarily to recognition of the Urby at Harborside tax credit of $2.6 million at share in the first quarter in 2025 compared to the second quarter in 2024, and the improved operating performance of its unconsolidated joint ventures as a result of higher rental rates, occupancy and reduced rental concessions.
Gain (loss) on disposition of developable land. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company sold 65 Livingston and as a result, recognized as loss on disposition of $0.2 million. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company sold 2 Campus and as a result, recognized a gain on disposition of developable land of $0.8 million. See Note 3: Investments in Rental Properties to the Financial Statements.
Gain on sale of unconsolidated joint venture interests. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company's joint venture sold the Lofts at 40 Park multifamily rental property for $30.3 million and the Company recorded a gain on the sale for its interest of approximately $7.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Discontinued operations. The Company recognized income from discontinued operations of $0.1 million and $0.3 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively. In 2024, the Company recognized realized gains (losses) and unrealized gains (losses) on disposition of rental property and impairments, net, of $1.5 million, on these properties. See Note 7: Discontinued Operations to the Financial Statements.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
Overview
Liquidity is a measurement of the Company's ability to meet cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to repay borrowings, pay dividends, fund acquisitions of real estate assets and other general business needs. In addition to cash on hand, the primary sources of funds for short-term and long-term liquidity requirements, including working capital, distributions, debt service and additional investments, consist of: (i) borrowings under the revolving credit facility; (ii) proceeds from sales of real estate; and (iv) cash flow from operations. The Company believes these sources of financing will be sufficient to meet our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements.
The Company's cash flow from operations primarily consists of rental revenue which is the principal source of funds that is used to pay operating expenses, debt service, general and administrative expenses, operating capital expenditures, dividends, and transaction-related expenses. The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally through its working capital, which may include proceeds from the sales of rental properties and land, net cash provided by operating activities and draws from its revolving credit facility.
Cash Flows
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash decreased by $2.2 million to $22.1 million at March 31, 2025, compared to $24.3 million at December 31, 2024. This decrease is comprised of the following net cash flow items:
(1)$13.2 million provided by operating activities.
(2)$3.4 million provided by investing activities, consisting primarily of the following:
(a)$7.1 million received from proceeds from the sales of developable land;
(b)$3.2 million received from distributions in excess of cumulative earnings from unconsolidated joint ventures;
(c)$5.8 million used for additions to rental property, improvements and other costs;
(d)$1.1 million used for the development of rental property and other related costs.
(3)$18.8 million used in financing activities, consisting primarily of the following:
(a)$24.0 million used for repayments of the revolving credit facility;
(b)$8.3 million used for payment of common dividends and distributions;
(c)$3.9 million used for payment for taxes related to the net share settlement of stock compensation awards;
(d)$2.3 million used for repayments of mortgages, loans payable and other obligations;
(e)$20.0 million received from the borrowings from the revolving credit facility.
To maintain its qualification as a REIT under the IRS Code, the General Partner must make annual distributions to its stockholders of at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gains. However, any such distributions, whether for federal income tax purposes or otherwise, would be paid out of available cash, including borrowings and other sources, after meeting operating requirements, preferred stock dividends and distributions, and scheduled debt service on the Company’s debt. If and to the extent the Company retains and does not distribute any net capital gains, the General Partner will be required to pay federal, state and local taxes on such net capital gains at the rate applicable to capital gains of a corporation.
The Board of Directors considers a variety of factors when setting the Company's dividends including the Company’s earnings, income tax projections, cash flows, financial condition, capital requirements, debt maturities, the availability of debt and equity capital, applicable REIT and legal restrictions, economic conditions and other factors.
The General Partner, as of the taxable year ended December 31, 2023, the most recent year for which tax returns have been filed, has net operating losses of $240.0 million and $37.4 million of capital loss carryovers.
On February 27, 2025, the Company declared a $0.08 dividend per common share, which was paid on April 10, 2025 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on March 31, 2025.
Debt Financing
Debt Strategy
The Company has historically utilized a combination of corporate and property-level indebtedness. The Company will seek to refinance or retire its debt obligations at maturity with available proceeds received from the Company’s planned non-strategic asset sales, as well as with new corporate or property-level indebtedness on or before the applicable maturity dates.

Equity Financing and Registration Statements
Shelf Registration Statements
The General Partner has an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC for an aggregate amount of $2.0 billion in common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, and/or warrants of the General Partner, under which $100 million of shares of common stock have been allocated for sale pursuant to the Company's ATM Program commenced in November 2023 and 133,759 shares have been sold, for gross proceeds of $2.1 million, as of March 31, 2025.
The General Partner and the Operating Partnership also have an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC for an aggregate amount of $2.5 billion in common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares and guarantees of the General Partner and debt securities of the Operating Partnership, under which no securities have been sold as of March 31, 2025.
Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan
The Company has a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the “DRIP”) which commenced in March 1999 under which approximately 5.4 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock have been reserved for future issuance. The DRIP provides for automatic reinvestment of all or a portion of a participant’s dividends from the General Partner’s shares of common stock. The DRIP also permits participants to make optional cash investments up to $5,000 a month without restriction and, if the Company waives this limit, for additional amounts subject to certain restrictions and other conditions set forth in the DRIP prospectus filed as part of the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the approximately 5.4 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock reserved for issuance under the DRIP.
Share Repurchase Program
On February 19, 2025, the Board of Directors approved a $100 million share repurchase program over the next two years, with share repurchases under the new program authorized to begin on March 26, 2025. As of March 31, 2025, the Company did not repurchase any shares.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Unconsolidated Joint Venture Debt
The debt of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures generally provides for recourse to the Company for customary matters such as intentional misuse of funds, environmental conditions and material misrepresentations. The Company may agree to guarantee repayment of a portion of the debt of its unconsolidated joint ventures. As of March 31, 2025, there was no outstanding balance of such debt which was guaranteed by the Company.
The Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements are further discussed in Note 4: Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures to the Financial Statements.
Funds from Operations
Funds from operations (“FFO”) (available to common stock and unit holders) is defined as net income (loss) before noncontrolling interests in Operating Partnership, computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains or losses from depreciable rental property transactions (including both acquisitions and dispositions), and impairments related to depreciable rental property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as one of several measures of the performance of an equity REIT. The Company further believes that as FFO excludes the effect of depreciation, gains (or losses) from property transactions and impairments related to depreciable rental property (all of which are based on historical costs which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance), FFO can facilitate comparison of operating performance between equity REITs.
FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income available to common shareholders as an indication of the Company’s performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO presented herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definition. However, the Company’s FFO is comparable to the FFO of real estate companies that use the current definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”).
As the Company considers its primary earnings measure, net income available to common shareholders, as defined by GAAP, to be the most comparable earnings measure to FFO, the following table presents a reconciliation of net income available to common shareholders to FFO, as calculated in accordance with NAREIT’s current definition, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended March 31, | | |

Funds from operations available to common stock and Operating Partnership unitholders (b) | | $ | 11,759 | | | $ | 10,380 | | | | | |
(a)Includes the Company’s share from unconsolidated joint ventures, and adjustments for noncontrolling interests of $2.3 million and $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Excludes non-real estate-related depreciation and amortization of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
(b)Net loss available to common shareholders included $3.2 million and zero of land impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Net loss available to common shareholders also included $0.2 million loss on disposition of developable land for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and a $0.8 million gain for the three months ended March 31, 2024. These balances are included in the calculation to arrive at funds from operations as such charges relate to non-depreciable assets.

We assume no obligation to update and supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events, new information or otherwise.
Item 3. Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is exposed to market risk from its indebtedness primarily from changes in market interest rates. The Company monitors interest rate risk as an integral part of its overall risk management. The Company manages its exposure
to interest rate risk by utilizing fixed rate indebtedness or by hedging the majority of its floating rate indebtedness with interest rate swaps or caps, as appropriate.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company's indebtedness with an aggregate principal balance of $1.7 billion had an estimated aggregate fair value of $1.6 billion.
Changes in interest rates impact the fair value of the Company's fixed rate debt instruments, computed using current market yields. Approximately $1.1 billion of the Company’s long-term debt as of March 31, 2025 bears interest at fixed rates with a weighted average coupon of 4.62% and therefore the fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates. If market rates of interest increased or decreased by 100 basis points, the fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt as of March 31, 2025 would be approximately $28.0 million lower or higher, respectively.
The effective interest rates on the Company’s $589.5 million variable rate debt hedged by interest-rate caps, as of March 31, 2025 ranged from SOFR plus 141 basis points to SOFR plus 275 basis points. Assuming interest-rate caps are not in effect as of March 31, 2025, if market rates of interest on the Company’s variable rate debt increased or decreased by 100 basis points, then the increase or decrease in interest costs on the Company’s variable rate debt would be approximately $5.9 million annually.
The following table presents principal cash flows (in thousands) based upon maturity dates of the debt obligations and the related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates for the fixed rate debt.

(b)Excludes $4.2 million of unamortized deferred financing costs recorded in Deferred charges and other assets, net, pertaining to the Company's Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2025.
While the Company has not experienced any significant credit losses, in the event of a significant rising interest rate environment and/or economic downturn, tenant vacancies or defaults could increase and result in losses to the Company which could adversely affect its operating results and liquidity, including its ability to pay its debt obligations.
