NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1.Organization

Alexander’s, Inc. (NYSE: ALX) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), incorporated in Delaware, engaged in leasing, managing, developing and redeveloping its properties. All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Company” and “Alexander’s” refer to Alexander’s, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado Realty Trust (“Vornado”) (NYSE: VNO). We have five properties in New York City.

2.Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and include the accounts of Alexander’s and its consolidated subsidiaries. All adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC.

We have made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

We operate in one reportable segment.

3.Recently Issued Accounting Literature

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 aims to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. The update also requires disclosure regarding the chief operating decision maker and expands the interim segment disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires entities to disclose additional information with respect to the effective tax rate reconciliation and to disclose the disaggregation by jurisdiction of income tax expense and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

4.Revenue Recognition

The following is a summary of revenue sources for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.


	For the Three Months Ended September 30,				For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
(Amounts in thousands)	2024		2023		2024		2023
Lease revenues	$	53,244	$	52,954	$	163,878	$	155,502
Parking revenue	1,168		1,090		3,483		3,300
Tenant services	1,263		1,369		3,103		3,225
Rental revenues	$	55,675	$	55,413	$	170,464	$	162,027

The components of lease revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:


	For the Three Months Ended September 30,				For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
(Amounts in thousands)	2024		2023		2024		2023
Fixed lease revenues	$	35,608	$	34,926	$	112,542	$	104,489
Variable lease revenues	17,636		18,028		51,336		51,013
Lease revenues	$	53,244	$	52,954	$	163,878	$	155,502

Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) accounted for revenue of $93,179,000 and $89,863,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, representing approximately 55% of our rental revenues in each period. No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of our rental revenues. If we were to lose Bloomberg as a tenant, or if Bloomberg were to be unable to fulfill its obligations under its lease, it would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In order to assist us in our continuing assessment of Bloomberg’s creditworthiness, we receive certain confidential financial information and metrics from Bloomberg. In addition, we access and evaluate financial information regarding Bloomberg from other private sources, as well as publicly available data.

On May 3, 2024, Alexander’s and Bloomberg entered into an agreement to extend the leases covering approximately 947,000 square feet at our 731 Lexington Avenue property that were scheduled to expire in February 2029 for a term of eleven years to February 2040. Upon execution of this lease extension, we paid a $32,000,000 leasing commission, of which $26,500,000 was to a third-party broker and $5,500,000 was to Vornado.

In connection with the lease extension, Bloomberg is entitled to a $113,618,000 tenant fund which is accounted for as a lease incentive under GAAP. Accordingly, during the second quarter of 2024, we recorded a deferred lease incentive asset of $113,618,000, which is amortized as a reduction to rental revenues over the remaining term of the lease, and a corresponding liability. These amounts are included in “Deferred leasing costs, net” and “Lease incentive liability,” respectively, on our consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2024.

On December 3, 2022, IKEA closed its 112,000 square foot store at our Rego Park I property under a lease that was set to expire in December 2030. The lease included a right to terminate effective no earlier than March 16, 2026, subject to payment of rent through the termination date and an additional termination payment equal to the lesser of $10,000,000 or the amount of rent due under the remaining term. On September 27, 2023, we entered into a lease modification agreement with IKEA which accelerated its lease termination date to April 1, 2024. During the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024, IKEA paid its remaining rent obligation through March 16, 2026 and the $10,000,000 termination payment.

5.Real Estate Sale

On May 19, 2023, we sold the Rego Park III land parcel in Queens, New York, for $71,060,000 inclusive of consideration for Brownfield tax benefits and reimbursement of costs for plans, specifications and improvements to date. Net proceeds from the sale were $67,821,000 after closing costs and the financial statement gain was $53,952,000.

6.Related Party Transactions

Vornado

As of September 30, 2024, Vornado owned 32.4% of our outstanding common stock. We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado, pursuant to the agreements described below, which expire in March of each year and are automatically renewable.

Management and Development Agreements

We pay Vornado an annual management fee equal to the sum of (i) $2,800,000, (ii) 2% of gross revenue from the Rego Park II shopping center, (iii) $0.50 per square foot of the tenant-occupied office and retail space at 731 Lexington Avenue, and (iv) $376,000, escalating at 3% per annum, for managing the common area of 731 Lexington Avenue. Vornado is also entitled to a development fee equal to 6% of development costs, as defined.

Leasing and Other Agreements

Vornado also provides us with leasing services for a fee of 3% of rent for the first ten years of a lease term, 2% of rent for the eleventh through the twentieth year of a lease term, and 1% of rent for the twenty-first through thirtieth year of a lease term, subject to the payment of rents by tenants. Under the agreements in effect prior to May 1, 2024, in the event third-party real estate brokers were used, the fees to Vornado increased by 1% and Vornado was responsible for the fees to the third-party real estate brokers (“Third-Party Lease Commissions”). On May 1, 2024, our Board of Directors approved amendments to the leasing agreements, subject to applicable lender consents, pursuant to which the Company is responsible for any Third-Party Lease Commissions and, in such circumstances, Vornado’s fee is one-third of the applicable Third-Party Lease Commission.

Vornado is also entitled to a commission upon the sale of any of our assets equal to 3% of gross proceeds, as defined, for asset sales less than $50,000,000 and 1% of gross proceeds, as defined, for asset sales of $50,000,000 or more.

We also have agreements with Building Maintenance Services LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Vornado, to supervise (i) cleaning, engineering and security services at our 731 Lexington Avenue property and (ii) security services at our Rego Park I and Rego Park II properties and The Alexander apartment tower. In addition, we have an agreement with a wholly owned subsidiary of Vornado to manage the parking garages at our Rego Park I and Rego Park II properties.

The following is a summary of fees earned by Vornado under the various agreements discussed above.

7.Mortgages Payable

On June 9, 2023, we exercised our remaining one-year extension option on the $500,000,000 interest-only mortgage loan on the office condominium of our 731 Lexington Avenue property. The interest rate on the loan remained at LIBOR plus 0.90% through July 15, 2023 and then at the Prime Rate through loan maturity on June 11, 2024. In addition, in June 2023, we purchased an interest rate cap for $11,258,000, which capped LIBOR at 6.00% through July 15, 2023 and then the Prime Rate at 6.00% through loan maturity. On June 11, 2024, we entered into a four-month extension of the loan and simultaneously paid down the principal balance by $10,000,000 to $490,000,000.

On September 30, 2024, we entered into a new $400,000,000 mortgage loan on the office condominium portion of 731 Lexington Avenue. The interest-only loan has a fixed rate of 5.04% and matures in October 2028. The loan is prepayable, at the Company’s option, with no penalty, beginning in October 2026. The new loan replaces the previous $490,000,000 loan that bore interest at the Prime Rate and was scheduled to mature in October 2024.

The following is a summary of our outstanding mortgages payable as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. We may refinance our maturing debt as it comes due or choose to pay it down.

(2)Interest at SOFR plus 1.51% which was swapped to a fixed rate of 1.76% through May 2025.

(3)Interest at SOFR plus 1.45% (SOFR is capped at a rate of 4.15% through November 2024).

8.Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). Our 2016 Omnibus Stock Plan (the “Plan”) provides for grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, deferred stock units (“DSUs”) and performance shares, as defined, to the directors, officers and employees of the Company and Vornado.

In May 2024, we granted each of the members of our Board of Directors 357 DSUs with a market value of $75,000 per grant. The grant date fair value of these awards was $56,250 per grant, or $450,000 in the aggregate, in accordance with ASC 718. The DSUs entitle the holders to receive shares of the Company’s common stock without the payment of any consideration. The DSUs vested immediately and accordingly, were expensed on the date of grant, but the shares of common stock underlying the DSUs are not deliverable to the grantee until the grantee is no longer serving on the Company’s Board of Directors. As of September 30, 2024, there were 26,244 DSUs outstanding and 479,543 shares were available for future grant under the Plan.

9.Fair Value Measurements

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”) defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities that are highly liquid and are actively traded in secondary markets; Level 2 – observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 – unobservable inputs that are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as consider counterparty credit risk in our assessment of fair value.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

Financial assets measured at fair value on our consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2024 consist of interest rate derivatives, which are presented in the table below based on their level in the fair value hierarchy. There were no financial liabilities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2024.

Interest Rate Derivatives

We recognize the fair value of all interest rate derivatives in “other assets” or “other liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets and since all of our interest rate derivatives have been designated as cash flow hedges, changes in the fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income. The table below summarizes our interest rate derivatives, all of which hedge the interest rate risk attributable to the variable rate debt noted as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value

Financial assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets include cash equivalents and mortgages payable. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities and are classified as Level 1. The fair value of our mortgages payable is calculated by discounting the future contractual cash flows of these instruments using current risk-adjusted rates available to borrowers with similar credit ratings, which are provided by a third-party specialist, and is classified as Level 2. The table below summarizes the carrying amount and fair value of these financial instruments as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

10.Commitments and Contingencies

Insurance

We maintain general liability insurance with limits of $300,000,000 per occurrence and per property, of which the first $30,000,000 includes communicable disease coverage, and all-risk property and rental value insurance coverage with limits of $1.7 billion per occurrence, including coverage for acts of terrorism, with sub-limits for certain perils such as floods and earthquakes on each of our properties and excluding communicable disease coverage.

Fifty Ninth Street Insurance Company, LLC (“FNSIC”), our wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, acts as a direct insurer for coverage for acts of terrorism, including nuclear, biological, chemical and radiological (“NBCR”) acts, as defined by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended to date and which has been extended through December 2027. Coverage for acts of terrorism (including NBCR acts) is up to $1.7 billion per occurrence and in the aggregate. Coverage for acts of terrorism (excluding NBCR acts) is fully reinsured by third party insurance companies and the Federal government with no exposure to FNSIC. For NBCR acts, FNSIC is responsible for a $316,000 deductible and 20% of the balance of a covered loss, and the Federal government is responsible for the remaining 80% of a covered loss. We are ultimately responsible for any loss incurred by FNSIC.

We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism or other events. However, we cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future. We are responsible for uninsured losses and for deductibles and losses in excess of our insurance coverage, which could be material.

Our loans contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although we believe that we have adequate insurance coverage for purposes of these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. If lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain, it could adversely affect our ability to finance or refinance our properties.

Letters of Credit

Approximately $900,000 of standby letters of credit were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2024.

Other

There are various legal actions brought against us from time-to-time in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the outcome of such pending matters in the aggregate will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

11.Earnings Per Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income per share, including a reconciliation of net income and the number of shares used in computing basic and diluted income per share. Basic income per share is determined using the weighted average shares of common stock (including deferred stock units) outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is determined using the weighted average shares of common stock (including deferred stock units) outstanding during the period, and assumes all potentially dilutive securities were converted into common shares at the earliest date possible. There were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Alexander’s, Inc.

Results of Review of Interim Financial Information

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Alexander’s, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2024, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, and changes in equity, for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “interim financial information”). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial information for it to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 12, 2024, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

This interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company's management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Item 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report constitute forward-looking statements as such term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. They represent our intentions, plans, expectations and beliefs and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Our future results, financial condition and business may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “may” or other similar expressions in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Many of the factors that will determine the outcome of these and our other forward-looking statements are beyond our ability to control or predict. For a further discussion of factors that could materially affect the outcome of our forward-looking statements, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

For these statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or the date of any document incorporated by reference. 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 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include a discussion of our consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires us 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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Significant Accounting Policies

A summary of the critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and a summary of our significant accounting policies is included in “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements included therein. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, there were no material changes to these estimates or policies.

Overview

We compete with a large number of real estate investors, property owners and developers, some of whom may be willing to accept lower returns on their investments. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the global, national and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, the availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation, population and employment trends, zoning laws, and our ability to lease, sublease or sell our properties, at profitable levels. Our success is also subject to our ability to refinance existing debt on acceptable terms as it comes due.

Additionally, our business has been, and may continue to be, affected by the increase in inflation and interest rates and other uncertainties including the potential for an economic downturn. These factors could have a material impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for additional information regarding these and other factors that may materially affect our results.

Rental revenues were $55,675,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $55,413,000 for the prior year’s three months, an increase of $262,000. This was primarily due to (i) $1,740,000 of higher straight-line rental revenue from Bloomberg’s lease extension at 731 Lexington Avenue and (ii) $775,000 of higher lease termination fee income, partially offset by (iii) $1,523,000 of lower rental revenue from IKEA’s lease expiration at Rego Park I and (iv) $416,000 of lower operating expense reimbursements.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were $26,446,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $25,593,000 for the prior year’s three months, an increase of $853,000. This was primarily due to higher real estate tax expense.

Depreciation and Amortization

General and administrative expenses were $1,423,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $1,580,000 for the prior year’s three months, a decrease of $157,000. This was primarily due to lower professional fees.

Interest and Other Income

Interest and other income was $6,105,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $6,622,000 for the prior year’s three months, a decrease of $517,000. This was primarily due to a decrease in average cash balances.

Interest and Debt Expense

This was primarily due to higher interest rates, additional costs associated with the refinancing of our office condominium at 731 Lexington Avenue and higher deferred debt issuance cost amortization, partially offset by lower interest rate cap premium amortization.

Results of Operations – Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024, compared to September 30, 2023

Rental Revenues

Rental revenues were $170,464,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $162,027,000 for the prior year’s nine months, an increase of $8,437,000. This was primarily due to (i) $5,117,000 of higher rental revenue from IKEA’s lease modification at Rego Park I, (ii) $2,903,000 of higher straight-line rental revenue from Bloomberg’s lease extension at 731 Lexington Avenue and (iii) $1,204,000 of higher reimbursable operating expenses and capital expenditures, partially offset by (iv) $875,000 of lower rental revenue from Bed Bath & Beyond’s lease rejection at Rego Park I.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization was $26,146,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $23,492,000 for the prior year’s nine months, an increase of $2,654,000. This was primarily due to (i) $1,748,000 of higher depreciation expense on capital projects placed into service and (ii) $840,000 of accelerated depreciation and amortization related to IKEA’s lease modification at Rego Park I.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $5,058,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $4,845,000 for the prior year’s nine months, an increase of $213,000. This was primarily due to higher professional fees.

Interest and Other Income

Interest and other income was $20,321,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $15,464,000 for the prior year’s nine months, an increase of $4,857,000. This was primarily due to an increase in average interest rates.

Interest and Debt Expense

Interest and debt expense was $51,714,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $41,624,000 for the prior year’s nine months, an increase of $10,090,000. This was primarily due to higher interest rates, additional costs associated with the refinancing of our office condominium at 731 Lexington Avenue, higher interest rate cap premium amortization and higher deferred debt issuance cost amortization.

Net Gain on Sale of Real Estate

Net gain on sale of real estate was $53,952,000 for the prior year’s nine months, resulting from the sale of the Rego Park III land parcel in Queens, New York.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

Our cash requirements include property operating expenses, capital improvements, tenant improvements, debt service, leasing commissions, dividends to stockholders as well as development costs. The sources of liquidity to fund these cash requirements include rental revenue, which is our primary source of cash flow and is dependent upon the occupancy and rental rates of our properties, as well as our existing cash, proceeds from financings, including mortgage or construction loans secured by our properties and proceeds from asset sales.

As of September 30, 2024, we had $397,176,000 of liquidity comprised of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. Recent increases in interest rates and inflation could adversely affect our cash flow from continuing operations but we anticipate that cash flow from continuing operations over the next twelve months, together with existing cash balances, will be adequate to fund our business operations, cash dividends to stockholders, debt service and capital expenditures. We may refinance our maturing debt as it comes due or choose to pay it down. However, there can be no assurance that additional financing or capital will be available to refinance our debt, or that the terms will be acceptable or advantageous to us.

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were $397,176,000 as of September 30, 2024, compared to $552,977,000 as of December 31, 2023, a decrease of $155,801,000. This decrease resulted from (i) $175,824,000 of net cash used in financing activities and (ii) $3,273,000 of net cash used in investing activities, partially offset by (iii) $23,296,000 of net cash provided by operating activities.

Net cash used in financing activities of $175,824,000 was comprised of (i) $500,000,000 of debt repayments, (ii) $69,277,000 of dividends paid and (iii) $6,547,000 of debt issuance costs, partially offset by (iv) proceeds from borrowing of $400,000,000.

Net cash used in investing activities of $3,273,000 was comprised of $9,836,000 of construction in progress and real estate additions, partially offset by proceeds from an interest rate cap of $6,563,000.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $23,296,000 was comprised of (i) net income of $31,167,000 and (ii) adjustments for non-cash items of $45,349,000, partially offset by (iii) the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $53,220,000. The adjustments for non-cash items were comprised of (i) depreciation and amortization (including amortization of debt issuance costs) of $28,470,000, (ii) straight-lining of rents of $11,880,000, (iii) interest rate cap premium amortization of $6,213,000 and (iv) stock-based compensation expense of $450,000, partially offset by (v) other non-cash adjustments of $1,664,000.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) (non-GAAP)

FFO is computed in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude net gains from sales of certain real estate assets, real estate impairment losses, depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets and other specified items, including the pro rata share of such adjustments of unconsolidated subsidiaries. FFO and FFO per diluted share are non-GAAP financial measures used by management, investors and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains on sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, rather than fluctuating based on existing market conditions. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash requirements and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a performance measure or cash flow as a liquidity measure. FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. A reconciliation of our net income to FFO is provided below.

FFO (non-GAAP) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023

FFO (non-GAAP) for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $14,582,000, or $2.84 per diluted share, compared to $18,623,000, or $3.63 per diluted share in the prior year’s three months.

FFO (non-GAAP) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $57,123,000, or $11.13 per diluted share, compared to $55,464,000, or $10.81 per diluted share in the prior year’s nine months.

Fair Value of Debt

The fair value of our consolidated debt is calculated by discounting the future contractual cash flows of these instruments using current risk-adjusted rates available to borrowers with similar credit ratings, which are provided by a third-party specialist. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the estimated fair value of our consolidated debt was $1,010,684,000 and $1,071,887,000, respectively. Our fair value estimates, which are made at the end of the reporting period, may be different from the amounts that may ultimately be realized upon the disposition of our financial instruments.
