EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2021 of First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), and First Industrial, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership"). Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms "we," "our" and "us" refer to the Company and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The Company is a real estate investment trust and the general partner of the Operating Partnership. At September 30, 2021, the Company owned an approximate 97.8% common general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining approximate 2.2% common limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership are owned by limited partners. The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are persons or entities who contributed their direct or indirect interests in properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership and recipients of RLP Units (as defined in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) of the Operating Partnership pursuant to the Company's stock incentive plan. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company exercises exclusive and complete discretion over the Operating Partnership's day-to-day management and control and can cause it to enter into certain major transactions, including acquisitions, dispositions and refinancings. The management of the Company consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership.

The Company and the Operating Partnership are managed and operated as one enterprise. The financial results of the Operating Partnership are consolidated into the financial statements of the Company. The Company has no significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Substantially all of the Company's assets are held by, and its operations are conducted through, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of the Company and the Operating Partnership are substantially the same.

We believe it is important to understand the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Company and the Operating Partnership operate as an interrelated, consolidated company. The main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Company and those of the Operating Partnership are:

•Equity, Noncontrolling Interest and Partners' Capital. The 2.2% equity interest in the Operating Partnership held by entities other than the Company is classified within partners' capital in the Operating Partnership's financial statements and as a noncontrolling interest in the Company's financial statements.

•Relationship to Other Real Estate Partnerships. The Company's operations are conducted primarily through the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, although operations are also conducted through several other limited partnerships, which are referred to as the "Other Real Estate Partnerships." The Operating Partnership is a limited partner, holding at least a 99% interest, and the Company is a general partner, holding at least a .01% general partnership interest through several separate wholly-owned corporations, in each of the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The Other Real Estate Partnerships are variable interest entities that both the Company and the Operating Partnership consolidate. The Company's direct general partnership interest in the Other Real Estate Partnerships is reflected as noncontrolling interest within the Operating Partnership's financial statements.

•Relationship to Service Subsidiary. The Company has a direct wholly-owned subsidiary that does not own any real estate but provides services to various other entities owned by the Company. Since the Operating Partnership does not have an ownership interest in this entity, its operations are reflected in the consolidated results of the Company but not the Operating Partnership. Also, this entity owes certain amounts to the Operating Partnership, for which a receivable is included on the Operating Partnership's balance sheet but is eliminated on the Company's consolidated balance sheet, since both this entity and the Operating Partnership are fully consolidated by the Company.

We believe combining the Company's and Operating Partnership's quarterly reports into this single report results in the following benefits:

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

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

•eliminates duplicative disclosures and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation for our investors to review since a substantial portion of the Company's disclosure applies to both the Company and the Operating Partnership.

To help investors understand the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, this report provides the following disclosures for each of the Company and the Operating Partnership:

•consolidated financial statements;

•a single set of consolidated notes to such financial statements that includes separate discussions of each entity's equity or partners' capital, as applicable; and

•a combined Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section that includes distinct information related to each entity.

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

FIRST INDUSTRIAL REALTY TRUST, INC. AND FIRST INDUSTRIAL, L.P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited; dollars in thousands, except per share and Unit data)

1. Organization

First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc. (the "Company") is a self-administered and fully integrated real estate company which owns, manages, acquires, sells, develops and redevelops industrial real estate. The Company is a Maryland corporation organized on August 10, 1993 and a real estate investment trust ("REIT") as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms "we," "our" and "us" refer to the Company and its subsidiaries, including its operating partnership, First Industrial, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"), and its consolidated subsidiaries.

We began operations on July 1, 1994. The Company's operations are conducted primarily through the Operating Partnership, of which the Company is the sole general partner (the "General Partner"), with an approximate 97.8% ownership interest ("General Partner Units") at September 30, 2021. The Operating Partnership also conducts operations through several other limited partnerships (the "Other Real Estate Partnerships"), numerous limited liability companies ("LLCs") and certain taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs"), the operating data of which, together with that of the Operating Partnership, is consolidated with that of the Company as presented herein. The Operating Partnership holds at least a 99% limited partnership interest in each of the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The general partners of the Other Real Estate Partnerships are separate corporations, wholly-owned by the Company, each with at least a .01% general partnership interest in the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The Company does not have any significant assets or liabilities other than its investment in the Operating Partnership and its 100% ownership interest in the general partners of the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The Company's noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership of approximately 2.2% at September 30, 2021 represents the aggregate partnership interest held by the limited partners thereof ("Limited Partner Units" and together with the General Partner Units, the "Units"). The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are persons or entities who contributed their direct or indirect interests in properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common Limited Partner Units of the Operating Partnership and/or recipients of RLP Units of the Operating Partnership (see Note 6) pursuant to the Company's stock incentive plan.

We also own equity interests in, and provide various services to, two joint ventures (the "Joint Ventures") through a wholly-owned TRS of the Operating Partnership. The Joint Ventures are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The operating data of the Joint Ventures is not consolidated with that of the Company or the Operating Partnership as presented herein. One of the Joint Ventures sold its remaining acres of land during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. See Note 5 for more information related to the Joint Ventures.

Profits, losses and distributions of the Operating Partnership, the LLCs, the Other Real Estate Partnerships, the TRSs and the Joint Ventures are allocated to the general partner and the limited partners, the members or the shareholders, as applicable, of such entities in accordance with the provisions contained within their respective organizational documents.

As of September 30, 2021, we owned 423 industrial properties located in 20 states, containing an aggregate of approximately 62.1 million square feet of gross leasable area ("GLA"). Of the 423 properties owned on a consolidated basis, none of them are directly owned by the Company.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies described in the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 ("2020 Form 10-K") and should be read in conjunction with such consolidated financial statements and related notes. The 2020 year end consolidated balance sheet data included in this Form 10-Q filing was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements in our 2020 Form 10-K, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The following notes to these interim consolidated financial statements highlight significant changes to the notes included in the December 31, 2020 audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2020 Form 10-K and present interim disclosures as required by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Use of Estimates

In order to conform with GAAP, in preparation of our consolidated financial statements we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of our financial position as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the results of our operations and comprehensive income for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and our cash flows for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform-related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. The Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

3. Investment in Real Estate

Acquisitions

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we acquired four industrial properties comprised of approximately 0.2 million square feet of GLA and nine land parcels, one of which was acquired from Joint Venture I (see Note 5). We accounted for the properties and land parcels as asset acquisitions and therefore capitalized transaction costs to the basis of the acquired assets. The following table summarizes the allocation of the aggregate purchase price to each major asset class for the industrial properties and land parcels acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2021:


Land	$	186,160
Building and Improvements/Construction in Progress	27,880
In-Place Leases	789


Other Assets	1,592

Total Purchase Price	$	216,421

The revenue and net income associated with the acquisition of the industrial properties and land parcels, since their respective acquisition dates, are not significant to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

As of September 30, 2021, we had four industrial properties comprised of approximately 0.09 million square feet of GLA held for sale.

Sales

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we sold 12 industrial properties and seven industrial condominium units comprised of approximately 1.7 million square feet of GLA and one land parcel. Gross proceeds from the sales were $118,623. The gain on sale of real estate attributable to these sales was $66,378.

_______________

(A) The interest rate at September 30, 2021 includes the impact of derivative instruments we entered into to effectively convert the variable rate to a fixed rate. See Note 10.

(B) Amounts exclude unamortized debt issuance costs of $4,897 and $1,049 as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, which are included in the line item Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets, Net.

Mortgage Loans Payable, Net

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we paid off mortgage loans in the amount of $57,912.

As of September 30, 2021, mortgage loans payable are collateralized, and in some instances cross-collateralized, by industrial properties with a net carrying value of $136,284. We believe the Operating Partnership and the Company were in compliance with all covenants relating to mortgage loans as of September 30, 2021.

Unsecured Term Loans

On July 7, 2021, we amended and restated our 2020 Unsecured Term Loan to, among other things, extend the maturity date of this $200,000 unsecured term loan (as amended and restated, the "2021 Unsecured Term Loan"). The 2021 Unsecured Term Loan matures on July 7, 2026. We may request the borrowing capacity under the 2021 Unsecured Term Loan to be increased to $460,000, subject to certain restrictions.

Also on July 7, 2021, in connection with the execution of the 2021 Unsecured Term Loan, we amended our 2015 Unsecured Term Loan to make certain changes to the covenants and other provisions of the 2015 Unsecured Term Loan to conform those covenants and other provisions to the terms of the 2021 Unsecured Term Loan. This amendment did not increase our borrowing capacity under, extend the maturity date of or modify the pricing of the 2015 Unsecured Term Loan. Subject to certain restrictions, we may request the borrowing capacity under the 2015 Unsecured Term Loan be increased to $360,000.

Unsecured Credit Facility

On July 7, 2021, we amended and restated our $725,000 revolving credit agreement with a new $750,000 revolving credit agreement (as amended and restated, the "Unsecured Credit Facility"). We may request that the borrowing capacity under the Unsecured Credit Facility be increased to $1,000,000, subject to certain restrictions. The Unsecured Credit Facility matures on July 7, 2025, unless extended at our option pursuant to two six-month extension options, subject to certain conditions.

Indebtedness

The following is a schedule of the stated maturities and scheduled principal payments of our indebtedness, exclusive of discounts and debt issuance costs, for the next five years as of September 30, and thereafter:


	Amount
Remainder of 2021	$	793
2022	332,024
2023	321
2024	335
2025	74,349
Thereafter	1,207,866
Total	$	1,615,688

The Unsecured Credit Facility, our unsecured term loans (the "Unsecured Term Loans"), our senior notes issued in private placements ("Private Placement Notes") and the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes contain certain financial covenants, including limitations on incurrence of debt and debt service coverage. Under the Unsecured Credit Facility and the Unsecured Term Loans an event of default can occur if the lenders, in their good faith judgment, determine that a material adverse change has occurred which could prevent timely repayment or materially impair our ability to perform our obligations under the loan agreements. We believe the Operating Partnership and the Company were in compliance with all covenants relating to the Unsecured Credit Facility, the Unsecured Term Loans, the Private Placement Notes and the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes as of September 30, 2021; however, these financial covenants are complex and there can be no assurance that these provisions would not be interpreted by our lenders and noteholders in a manner that could impose and cause us to incur material costs.

Fair Value

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the fair value of our indebtedness was as follows:


	September 30, 2021				December 31, 2020
	Carrying Amount (A)		Fair Value		Carrying Amount (A)		Fair Value
Mortgage Loans Payable	$	83,117	$	85,452	$	144,214	$	148,770
Senior Unsecured Notes, Net	998,511		1,085,573		998,506		1,096,262
Unsecured Term Loans	460,000		460,647		460,000		458,207
Unsecured Credit Facility	74,000		74,000		—		—
Total	$	1,615,628	$	1,705,672	$	1,602,720	$	1,703,239

_______________

(A) The carrying amounts include unamortized discounts and exclude unamortized debt issuance costs.

The fair values of our mortgage loans payable were determined by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made based upon similar remaining maturities. The current market rates we utilized were internally estimated. The fair value of the senior unsecured notes were determined by using rates, as advised by our bankers, that are based upon recent trades within the same series of the senior unsecured notes, recent trades for senior unsecured notes with comparable maturities, recent trades for fixed rate unsecured notes from companies with profiles similar to ours, as well as overall economic conditions. The fair value of the Unsecured Credit Facility and the Unsecured Term Loans was determined by discounting the future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining term, assuming no repayment until maturity. We have concluded that our determination of fair value for each of our mortgage loans payable, senior unsecured notes and the Unsecured Term Loans was primarily based upon Level 3 inputs.

5. Variable Interest Entities

Other Real Estate Partnerships

The Other Real Estate Partnerships are variable interest entities ("VIEs") of the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership is the primary beneficiary, thus causing the Other Real Estate Partnerships to be consolidated by the Operating Partnership. In addition, the Operating Partnership is a VIE of the Company and the Company is the primary beneficiary.

The following table summarizes the assets and liabilities of the Other Real Estate Partnerships included in our consolidated balance sheets, net of intercompany amounts:


	September 30, 2021		December 31, 2020

Total Liabilities and Partners' Capital	$	298,350	$	279,955

Joint Ventures

Through a wholly-owned TRS of the Operating Partnership, we own a 49% interest in a joint venture ("Joint Venture I") and a 43% interest in another joint venture ("Joint Venture II", together with Joint Venture I, the "Joint Ventures"). The Joint Ventures were both formed for the purpose of developing, leasing, operating and selling land located in the Phoenix, Arizona metropolitan area. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, Joint Venture I sold its remaining acres of land.

Under the operating agreements for each of the Joint Ventures, we act as the managing member and are entitled to receive fees for providing management, leasing, development, construction supervision, disposition and asset management services. In addition, both of the Joint Ventures' operating agreements provide us the ability to earn incentive fees based on the ultimate financial performance of each of the Joint Ventures.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we earned fees of $341 and $616, respectively, from the Joint Ventures related to asset management and development services we provided to the Joint Ventures, of which we deferred recognition of $51 and $263, respectively, due to our economic interest in the Joint Ventures. At September 30, 2021, we had an aggregate receivable from the Joint Ventures of $60.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net income of the Joint Ventures was $14,873. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net loss of the Joint Ventures was $531. Included in net income during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is gain on sale of real estate of $15,028 related to the sale of 138 net developable acres of land for which our economic share of the gain on sale, inclusive of incentive fees, is $10,166. However, since the Company was the purchaser of the 138 net developable acres from Joint Venture I, we netted our portion of gain on sale and incentive fees against the basis of the land acquired.

As part of our assessment of the appropriate accounting treatment for the Joint Ventures, we reviewed the operating agreements of each Joint Venture in order to determine our rights and the rights of our joint venture partners, including whether those rights are protective or participating. Each operating agreement contains certain protective rights, such as the requirement of both members' approvals to sell, finance or refinance the property and to pay capital expenditures and operating expenditures outside of the approved budget. Also, we and our Joint Venture partners jointly (i) approve the annual budget, (ii) approve certain expenditures, (iii) review and approve the Joint Venture's tax return before filing, and (iv) approve each lease at a developed property. We consider the latter rights substantive participation rights that result in shared, joint power over the activities that most significantly impact the performance of each Joint Venture. As such, we concluded to account for our investments in each Joint Venture under the equity method of accounting.

6. Equity of the Company and Partners' Capital of the Operating Partnership

Noncontrolling Interest of the Company

The equity positions of various individuals and entities that contributed their properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for Limited Partner Units, as well as the equity positions of the holders of Limited Partner Units issued in connection with the grant of restricted limited partner Units ("RLP Units") pursuant to the Company's stock incentive plan, are collectively referred to as the “Noncontrolling Interests.” An RLP Unit is a class of limited partnership interest of the Operating Partnership that is structured as a “profits interest” for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is an award that is granted under our stock incentive plan (see Note 9). Generally, RLP Units entitle the holder to receive distributions from the Operating Partnership that are equivalent to the dividends and distributions that would be made with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying such RLP Units, though receipt of such distributions may be delayed or made contingent on vesting. Once an RLP Unit has vested and received allocations of book income sufficient to increase the book capital account balance associated with such RLP Unit (which will initially be zero) equal to, on a per-unit basis, the book capital account balance associated with a "common" Limited Partner Unit of the Operating Partnership, it automatically becomes a common Limited Partner Unit that is convertible by the holder to one share of Common Stock or a cash equivalent, at the Company's option. Net income is allocated to the Noncontrolling Interests based on the weighted average ownership percentage during the period.

Noncontrolling Interest - Joint Venture II

Our ownership interest in Joint Venture II is held through a partnership with a third party. We concluded that we hold the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the partnership. As a result, we consolidate the partnership and reflect the third party's interest in the partnership that invests in Joint Venture II as a Noncontrolling Interest.

ATM Program

On February 14, 2020, we entered into three-year distribution agreements with certain sales agents to sell up to 14,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, for up to $500,000 aggregate gross sales proceeds, from time to time in "at-the-market" offerings (the "ATM"). Under the terms of the ATM, sales are to be made through transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market" offerings, including sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange, sales made through a market maker other than on an exchange or sales made through privately negotiated transactions. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, we issued 1,076,955 shares of the Company's common stock under the ATM which resulted in $59,008 of net proceeds and, payment of compensation to certain sales agents of $596.

7. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

The following table summarizes the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income by component for the Company and the Operating Partnership for the nine months ended September 30, 2021:


	Derivative Instruments		Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss of the Operating Partnership		Comprehensive Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest of the Company		Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss of the Company
Balance as of December 31, 2020	$	(17,308)	$	(17,308)	$	355	$	(16,953)
Other Comprehensive Gain Before Reclassifications	3,593		3,593		(166)		3,427
Amounts Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss	5,140		5,140		—		5,140
Net Current Period Other Comprehensive Gain	8,733		8,733		(166)		8,567
Balance as of September 30, 2021	$	(8,575)	$	(8,575)	$	189	$	(8,386)

The following table summarizes the reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income for both the Company and the Operating Partnership for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020:


	Amounts Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (Income)
Details about Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income Components	Three Months Ended September 30, 2021		Three Months Ended September 30, 2020		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020		Affected Line Items in the Consolidated Statements of Operations
Derivative Instruments:
Amortization of Previously Settled Derivative Instruments	$	103	$	103	$	308	$	308	Interest Expense
Net Settlement Payments to our Counterparties	1,583		2,250		4,832		4,338		Interest Expense
Acceleration of 2020 Swap (as defined in Note 10)	—		201		—		201		General & Administrative
Total	$	1,686	$	2,554	$	5,140	$	4,847

The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified to earnings through interest expense over the life of the derivative or over the life of the debt. In the next 12 months, we expect to amortize approximately $410 into net income by increasing interest expense for derivative instruments we settled in previous periods. Additionally, recurring settlement amounts on the 2015 Swaps and the 2021 Swaps (as defined in Note 10) will also be reclassified to net income.

At September 30, 2021 and 2020, participating securities for the Company include 147,937 and 211,920, respectively, of Service Awards (see Note 9), which participate in non-forfeitable distributions. At September 30, 2021 and 2020, participating securities for the Operating Partnership include 378,548 and 444,407, respectively, of Service Awards and certain Performance Awards (see Note 9), which participate in non-forfeitable distributions. Under the two-class method, participating security holders are allocated income, in proportion to total weighted average shares or Units outstanding, based upon the greater of net income or common stock dividends or Unit distributions declared.

9. Long-Term Compensation

Awards with Performance Measures

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 58,568 performance units ("Performance Units") and 263,621 RLP Units ("Performance RLP Units" and, together with the Performance Units, collectively the "Performance Awards") were granted to certain employees based on performance-based criteria, which had a fair value of approximately $7,162 on the grant date as determined by a lattice-binomial option-pricing model based on a Monte Carlo simulation. A portion of each Performance Award vests based upon the total shareholder return ("TSR") of the Company's common stock compared to the TSR of the FTSE Nareit All Equity Index and the remainder vests based upon the TSR of the Company’s common stock compared to nine other peer industrial real estate companies. The performance period for these Performance Awards is three years. Compensation expense is charged to earnings over the applicable vesting period for the Performance Awards. At the end of the measuring period, vested Performance Units convert into shares of common stock.

Service Based Awards

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 67,127 shares of restricted stock units ("Service Units") and 51,525 RLP Units ("Service RLP Units" and together with the Service Units, collectively the "Service Awards") were granted to certain employees and outside directors based on service-based criteria, which had an aggregate fair value of approximately $5,195 on the grant date. The Service Awards granted to employees generally vest ratably over three years based on continued employment. Service Awards granted to outside directors vest after one year. Compensation expense is charged to earnings over the vesting periods for the Service Awards. At the end of the service period, vested Service Units convert into shares of common stock.

Retirement Eligibility

Commencing January 1, 2020, all award agreements issued underlying Performance Awards and Service Awards contain a retirement benefit for employees with at least 10 years of continuous service and are at least 60 years old. For employees that meet the age and service eligibility requirements, their awards are non-forfeitable. As such, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we expensed 100% of the awards granted to retirement-eligible employees at the grant date as if fully vested. For employees who will meet the age and service eligibility requirements during the normal vesting periods, the grants are amortized over the shorter service period.

Outstanding Performance Awards and Service Awards

We recognized $3,508 and $3,078 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $10,572 and $9,827 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, in compensation expense related to the amortization of the Service Awards and the Performance Awards. Service Award and Performance Award amortization capitalized in connection with development activities was $549 and $358 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $1,759 and $1,670 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. At September 30, 2021, we had $14,268 in unrecognized compensation related to unvested Service Awards and Performance Awards. The weighted average period that the unrecognized compensation is expected to be recognized is 0.85 years.

10. Derivatives

Our objectives in using derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our cash flow volatility and exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, we primarily use derivative instruments as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

We entered into interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to changes in the one-month LIBOR rate related to our Unsecured Term Loans. We have six interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional value of $260,000, that fix the one-month LIBOR rate at a weighted average rate of 1.79% and mature on September 12, 2022 (the "2015 Swaps") and three interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional value of $200,000, that fix the one-month LIBOR rate at 0.99% and mature on February 2, 2026 (the "2021 Swaps"). We also had four interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional value of $200,000, that fixed the one-month LIBOR rate at a weighted average rate of 2.29% and matured on January 29, 2021 (the "2014 Swaps"). We designated the 2014 Swaps, the 2015 Swaps and the 2021 Swaps as cash flow hedges.

Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we entered into an interest rate swap to manage our exposure to changes in the one-month LIBOR rate related to our Unsecured Credit Facility (the "2020 Swap"). The 2020 Swap commenced April 1, 2020, matured on April 1, 2021, had a notional value of $150,000 and fixed the one-month LIBOR rate at 0.42%.

Our agreements with our derivative counterparties contain certain cross-default provisions that may be triggered in the event that our other indebtedness is in default, subject to certain thresholds. As of September 30, 2021, we had not posted any collateral related to these agreements and were not in breach of any of the provisions of these agreements. If we had breached these agreements, we could have been required to settle our obligations under the agreements at their termination value.

The following table sets forth our financial liabilities related to the 2014 Swaps, the 2015 Swaps, the 2020 Swap and the 2021 Swaps which are included in the line items Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities and are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

The estimated fair value of the 2014 Swaps, the 2015 Swaps, the 2020 Swap and the 2021 Swaps was determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated in the fair value to account for potential non-performance risk, including our own non-performance risk and the respective counterparty's non-performance risk. We determined that the significant inputs used to value the 2014 Swaps, the 2015 Swaps, the 2020 Swap and the 2021 Swaps fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

11. Related Party Transactions

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Operating Partnership had receivable balances of $9,337 and $9,380, respectively, from a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Additionally, see Note 5 for transactions with our joint ventures.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, we are involved in legal actions arising from the ownership of our industrial properties. In our opinion, the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from such legal actions are not expected to have a materially adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, operations or liquidity.

In conjunction with the development of industrial properties, we have entered into agreements with general contractors for the construction of industrial properties. At September 30, 2021, we had 17 industrial properties totaling approximately 5.6 million square feet of GLA under construction. The estimated total investment as of September 30, 2021 is approximately $594,700. Of this amount, approximately $355,600 remains to be funded. There can be no assurance that the actual completion cost will not exceed the estimated total investment.

13. Subsequent Events

From October 1, 2021 to October 22, 2021, we acquired three land parcels for a purchase price of $18,779, excluding transaction costs. In addition, we sold four industrial properties for $7,295, excluding transaction costs.

General

The Company is a self-administered and fully integrated real estate company which owns, manages, acquires, sells, develops and redevelops industrial real estate. The Company is a Maryland corporation organized on August 10, 1993 and a real estate investment trust ("REIT") as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). As of September 30, 2021, we owned 423 industrial properties located in 20 states, containing an aggregate of approximately 62.1 million square feet of gross leasable area ("GLA"). Of the 423 properties owned on a consolidated basis, none of them are directly owned by the Company.

We began operations on July 1, 1994. The Company's operations are conducted primarily through the Operating Partnership, of which the Company is the sole general partner (the "General Partner"), with an approximate 97.8% ownership interest ("General Partner Units") at September 30, 2021. The Operating Partnership also conducts operations through several other limited partnerships (the "Other Real Estate Partnerships"), numerous limited liability companies ("LLCs") and certain taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs"), the operating data of which, together with that of the Operating Partnership, is consolidated with that of the Company as presented herein. The Operating Partnership holds at least a 99% limited partnership interest in each of the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The general partners of the Other Real Estate Partnerships are separate corporations, wholly-owned by the Company, each with at least a .01% general partnership interest in the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The Company does not have any significant assets or liabilities other than its investment in the Operating Partnership and its 100% ownership interest in the general partners of the Other Real Estate Partnerships. The noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership of approximately 2.2% at September 30, 2021 represents the aggregate partnership interest held by the limited partners thereof ("Limited Partner Units" and together with the General Partner Units, the "Units").

We also own equity interests in, and provide various services to, two joint ventures (the "Joint Ventures"), each through a wholly-owned TRS of the Operating Partnership. The Joint Ventures are each accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The operating data of the Joint Ventures is not consolidated with that of the Operating Partnership or the Company as presented herein. One of the Joint Ventures sold its remaining acres of land during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Management's Overview

Business Objectives and Growth Plans

Our fundamental business objective is to maximize the total return to the Company's stockholders and the Operating Partnership's partners through an increase in cash flows and increases in the value of our properties and operations. Our long-term business growth plans include the following elements:

•Internal Growth. We seek to grow internally by (i) increasing revenues by renewing or re-leasing spaces subject to expiring leases at higher rental levels; (ii) contractual rent escalations on our long-term leases; (iii) increasing occupancy levels at properties where vacancies exist and maintaining occupancy elsewhere; (iv) controlling and minimizing property operating expenses, general and administrative expenses and releasing costs; and (v) renovating existing properties.

•External Growth. We seek to grow externally through (i) the development of best-in-class industrial properties; (ii) the acquisition of portfolios of industrial properties or individual properties which meet our investment parameters within our 15 target logistics markets; (iii) the expansion of our properties; and (iv) possible additional joint venture investments.

•Portfolio Enhancement. We continually seek to upgrade our overall portfolio via new investments as well as through the sale of select assets that we believe do not exhibit favorable characteristics for long-term cash flow growth. We target new investments located in 15 logistics markets where land is more scarce. We seek to refine our portfolio over the coming years by focusing on bulk and regional warehouses properties and downsizing our percentage of light industrial and R&D/flex buildings.

Our ability to pursue our long-term growth plans is affected by market conditions and our financial condition and operating capabilities.

Business Strategies

We utilize the following strategies in connection with the operation of our business:

•Organizational Strategy. We implement our decentralized property operations strategy through the deployment of experienced regional management teams and local property managers. We provide acquisition, development and financing assistance, asset management oversight and financial reporting functions from our headquarters in Chicago, Illinois to support our regional operations. We believe the size of our portfolio enables us to realize operating efficiencies by spreading overhead among many properties and by negotiating purchasing discounts.

•Market Strategy. Our market strategy is to concentrate on the top 15 industrial real estate markets in the United States. These markets have one or more of the following characteristics: (i) favorable industrial real estate fundamentals, including improving industrial demand and constrained supply that can lead to long-term rent growth; (ii) favorable economic and business environments that should benefit from increases in distribution activity driven by growth in global trade and local consumption; (iii) population growth as it generally drives industrial demand; (iv) natural barriers to entry and scarcity of land which are key elements in delivering future rent growth; and (v) sufficient size to provide ample opportunity for growth through incremental investments as well as offer asset liquidity.

•Leasing and Marketing Strategy. We have an operational management strategy designed to enhance tenant satisfaction and portfolio performance. We pursue an active leasing strategy, which includes broadly marketing available space, seeking to renew existing leases at higher rents per square foot and seeking leases which provide for the pass-through of property-related expenses to the tenant. We also have local and national marketing programs which focus on the business and real estate brokerage communities and multi-national tenants.

•Acquisition/Development Strategy. Our investment strategy is primarily focused on developing and acquiring industrial properties in the top 15 key logistics markets with a coastal orientation in the United States through the deployment of experienced regional management teams. When evaluating potential industrial property acquisitions and developments, we consider such factors as: (i) the geographic area and type of property; (ii) the location, construction quality, condition and design of the property; (iii) the terms of tenant leases, including the potential for rent increases; (iv) the potential for economic growth and the general business, tax and regulatory environment of the area in which the property is located; (v) the occupancy and demand by tenants for properties of a similar type in the vicinity; (vi) competition from existing properties and the potential for the construction of new properties in the area; (vii) the potential for capital appreciation of the property; (viii) the ability to improve

the property's performance through renovation; and (ix) the potential for expansion of the physical layout of the property and/or the number of sites.

•Disposition Strategy. We continually evaluate local market conditions and property-related factors in all of our markets for purposes of identifying assets suitable for disposition. We look to sell assets we believe have lower rent growth potential and redeploy the capital into assets we believe have higher rent growth potential in key logistics markets. We also seek to reduce our percentage of our holdings of light industrial and R&D/flex assets over time.

•Financing Strategy. To finance acquisitions, developments and debt maturities, as market conditions permit, we may utilize a portion of proceeds from property sales, unsecured debt offerings, term loans, mortgage financings and borrowings under our $750.0 million unsecured revolving credit agreement (the "Unsecured Credit Facility"), and proceeds from the issuance, when and as warranted, of additional equity securities. We also evaluate joint venture arrangements as additional sources of capital to finance acquisitions and developments.

Summary of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021

Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, our operating results remained strong during the nine months ended September, 30 2021. Our quarter end in-service occupancy was 97.1%, which is a 140 basis point increase compared to our in-service occupancy at December 31, 2020. Also, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we grew cash rental rates by 15.9% on new and renewal leases (22.8% during the third quarter). After resuming speculative development in the fourth quarter of 2020, we started 13 additional speculative buildings and one build-to-suit building comprising, in the aggregate, 5.0 million square feet of GLA during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. We continued to position ourselves for future development activity by acquiring land located in our target markets. Although the impact of COVID-19 pandemic has had an overall minimal impact on us in 2020 and so far in 2021, we cannot predict the future impact it may have on our business, future financial condition and operating results.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we completed the following significant real estate activities:

•We acquired four industrial properties comprised of approximately 0.2 million square feet of GLA located in the Central Florida, Denver and Northern California markets for an aggregate purchase price of $38.7 million, excluding transactions costs.

•We acquired approximately 455.8 acres of land for development located in the Central Pennsylvania, Denver, Inland Empire, Northern California, Philadelphia and Phoenix markets, for an aggregate purchase price of $177.7 million, excluding transaction costs.

•We commenced speculative development of 13 industrial buildings and one build-to-suit facility totaling 5.0 million square feet of GLA in our Central Florida, Central Pennsylvania, Dallas, Denver, Inland Empire, Miami, Nashville, Phoenix and Seattle markets.

•We sold 12 industrial properties and seven industrial condominium units comprising approximately 1.7 million square feet of GLA and one land parcel for gross sales proceeds of $118.6 million.

•One of the Joint Ventures sold its remaining 138 acres (for which the Company was the purchaser and such land purchase is included above) for a sale price of $31.8 million. Additionally, we netted our share of gain on sale and incentive fees of $10.2 million against the basis of the land.

Our significant financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were:

•We amended and restated our Unsecured Line of Credit which extended the maturity date to July 7, 2025 and increased our borrowing capacity to $750.0 million. The current credit spread is 32.5 basis points lower than the spread on the prior facility.

•We also amended and restated our $200.0 million 2020 Unsecured Term Loan, extending the maturity date to July 7, 2026 and increasing the additional borrowing capacity potentially available to incremental borrowings of $260.0 million if, subject to certain conditions, we exercise the accordion feature of this unsecured term loan. The current credit spread is 65 basis points lower than the the spread on the 2020 Unsecured Term Loan.

•We paid off $57.9 million in mortgage loans payable, increasing the percentage of our real estate that is unencumbered to 95.7% at September 30, 2021.

•We issued 1,076,955 shares of our common stock, through “at-the-market” (“ATM”) offerings, resulting in net proceeds of $59.0 million.

•We declared first, second and third quarter cash dividends of $0.27 per common share or Unit per quarter, an increase of 8.0% from the 2020 quarterly rate.

•At September 30, 2021, we had $670.7 million available for additional borrowings under our Unsecured Credit Facility and cash and cash equivalents of $52.3 million.

Results of Operations

The tables below summarize our revenues, property expenses and depreciation and other amortization by various categories for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Same store properties are properties owned prior to January 1, 2020 and held as an in-service property through September 30, 2021 and developments and redevelopments that were placed in service prior to January 1, 2020. Properties which are at least 75% occupied at acquisition are placed in service, unless we anticipate tenant move-outs within two years of ownership would drop occupancy below 75%. Acquisitions that are less than 75% occupied at the date of acquisition and developments and redevelopments are placed in service as they reach the earlier of a) stabilized occupancy (defined as 90% occupied), or b) one year subsequent to acquisition or development/redevelopment construction completion. Acquired properties with occupancy greater than 75% at acquisition, but with tenants that we anticipate will move out within two years of ownership, will be placed in service upon the earlier of reaching 90% occupancy or twelve months after move out. Properties are moved from the same store classification to the redevelopment classification when capital expenditures for a project are estimated to exceed 25% of the undepreciated gross book value of the property. Acquired properties are properties that were acquired subsequent to December 31, 2019 and held as an operating property through September 30, 2021. Sold properties are properties that were sold subsequent to December 31, 2019. Developments and redevelopments (collectively referred to as "(Re)Developments") include (re)developments that were not: a) substantially complete 12 months prior to January 1, 2020; or b) stabilized prior to January 1, 2020. Other revenues are derived from the operations of properties not placed in service under one of the categories discussed above, the operations of our maintenance company and other miscellaneous revenues. Other property expenses are derived from the operations of properties not placed in service under one of the categories discussed above, the operations of our maintenance company, vacant land expenses and other miscellaneous regional expenses.

Our future financial condition and results of operations, including rental revenues, may be impacted by the future acquisition, (re)development and sale of properties. Our future revenues and expenses may vary materially from historical rates.

Comparison of Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020

Our net income was $160.2 million and $114.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the average daily occupancy rate of our same store properties was 96.4% and 96.8%, respectively.

Total Revenues	$	354,739	$	335,739	$	19,000	5.7	%

Revenues from same store properties increased $17.6 million primarily due to an increase in rental rates and tenant recoveries and a decrease in reserves taken on tenant accounts receivable, offset by a decrease in occupancy and final insurance settlement proceeds of $1.1 million received and recorded in 2020 as revenue related to a property that was destroyed by fire in 2016. Revenues from acquired properties increased $8.2 million due to the 12 industrial properties acquired subsequent to December 31, 2019 totaling approximately 1.8 million square feet of GLA. Revenues from sold properties decreased $14.3 million due to the 41 industrial properties sold subsequent to December 31, 2019 totaling approximately 3.6 million square feet of GLA as well as a lease we reclassified from an operating lease to a sales-type lease in 2019, for which the sale of such property subsequently closed in 2020. Revenues from (re)developments increased $12.4 million due to an increase in occupancy. Revenues from other decreased $4.9 million primarily due to final insurance settlement proceeds of $5.4 million received and recorded in 2020 as revenue related to a property that was destroyed by fire in 2017, offset by revenues related to acquisitions of partially occupied properties during 2019 that were not yet stabilized at December 31, 2019 and therefore are not yet included in the same store pool.

Property expenses include real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and other property related expenses. Property expenses from same store properties increased $8.3 million primarily due to an increase in real estate tax expense, snow removal costs and repair and maintenance costs. Property expenses from acquired properties increased $1.6 million due to properties acquired subsequent to December 31, 2019. Property expenses from sold properties (including expenses related to the lease reclassified as a sales-type lease) decreased $3.2 million due to properties sold subsequent to December 31, 2019. Property expenses from (re)developments increased $2.5 million primarily due to the substantial completion of developments. Property expenses from other increased $1.8 million primarily due to an increase in certain miscellaneous expenses.

General and administrative expense increased by $0.7 million, or 2.6%, primarily due to an increase in compensation, offset by severance and regional wind-up expenses associated with the closing of our Indianapolis office during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Depreciation and other amortization from same store properties decreased $4.1 million primarily due to accelerated depreciation and amortization recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 attributable to the early termination of certain tenants' leases. Depreciation and other amortization from acquired properties increased $3.9 million due to properties acquired subsequent to December 31, 2019. Depreciation and other amortization from sold properties decreased $3.2 million due to properties sold subsequent to December 31, 2019. Depreciation and other amortization from (re)developments increased $3.6 million primarily due to an increase in depreciation and amortization related to completed developments. Depreciation from corporate furniture, fixtures and equipment and other remained relatively unchanged.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $66.4 million of gain on sale of real estate related to the sale of 12 industrial properties and seven industrial condominium units comprised of approximately 1.7 million square feet of GLA and one land parcel. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized $29.6 million of gain on sale of real estate related to the sale of 14 industrial properties comprised of approximately 0.6 million square feet of GLA.

Interest expense decreased by $3.5 million, or 9.2%, due to an increase in capitalized interest of $3.1 million caused by an increase in development projects eligible for capitalization during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and a decrease in the weighted average interest rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (3.52%) as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020 (3.61%), offset by an increase in the weighted average debt balance outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 ($1,615.5 million) as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020 ($1,587.5 million).

Amortization of debt issuance costs was not significant.

Equity in loss of Joint Ventures for both the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was not significant. However, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we deferred $10.2 million of equity in income and incentive fees earned from the sale of the remaining 138 acres of developable land from one of the Joint Ventures since the Company was the purchaser of the land. This deferral was netted against the basis of the land acquired.

Income tax provision increased by $2.1 million, or 1,975.2%, primarily due to an increase in our pro-rata share of gain from the sale of real estate as well as incentive fees we earned from one of the Joint Ventures. Our equity ownership in the Joint Ventures is owned through a wholly-owned TRS. We also recognized additional income taxes in 2021 related to sales of real estate from another TRS as well an increase in state tax expense.

Comparison of Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 to Three Months Ended September 30, 2020

Our net income was $43.4 million and $36.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the average daily occupancy rate of our same store properties was 97.3% and 96.7%, respectively.

Property expenses from (re)developments increased $0.8 million primarily due to the substantial completion of developments. Property expenses from other increased $1.6 million primarily due to an increase in certain miscellaneous expenses.

General and administrative expense increased by $1.1 million, or 14.9%, primarily due to an increase in incentive compensation.

Depreciation and other amortization from same store properties decreased $2.5 million primarily due to accelerated depreciation and amortization recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 attributable to the early termination of certain tenants' leases. Depreciation and other amortization from acquired properties increased $1.1 million due to properties acquired subsequent to December 31, 2019. Depreciation and other amortization from sold properties decreased $1.1 million due to properties sold subsequent to December 31, 2019. Depreciation and other amortization from (re)developments increased $1.3 million primarily due to an increase in depreciation and amortization related to completed developments. Depreciation from corporate furniture, fixtures and equipment and other remained relatively unchanged.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $8.9 million of gain on sale of real estate related to the sale of six industrial properties and four industrial condominium units comprised of approximately 0.2 million square feet of GLA. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized $6.5 million of gain on sale of real estate related to the sale of two industrial properties comprised of approximately 0.1 million square feet of GLA.

Interest expense decreased by $2.9 million, or 22.9%, due to an increase in capitalized interest of $2.2 million caused by an increase in development projects eligible for capitalization during the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020 and a decrease in the weighted average interest rate for the three months ended September 30, 2021 (3.31%) as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020 (3.56%), offset by an increase in the weighted average debt balance outstanding for the three months ended September 30, 2021 ($1,640.0 million) as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2020 ($1,604.8 million).

Amortization of debt issuance costs was not significant.

Equity in loss of Joint Ventures for both the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was not significant.

Income tax provision was $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to an income tax benefit of $0.04 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase of $0.8 million was primarily related to sales of real estate from one of our TRSs as well as an increase in state tax expense.

_______________

(A) Net rent is the average base rent calculated in accordance with GAAP, over the term of the lease.

(B) Straight line basis rent growth is a ratio of the change in net rent (including straight line rent adjustments) on a new or renewal lease compared to the net rent (including straight line rent adjustments) of the comparable lease. New leases where there were no prior comparable leases are excluded.

(D) Lease costs are comprised of the costs incurred or capitalized for improvements of vacant and renewal spaces, as well as the commissions paid and costs capitalized for leasing transactions. Lease costs per square foot represent the total turnover costs expected to be incurred on the leases that commenced during the period and do not reflect actual expenditures for the period.

(E) Represents the weighted average square feet of tenants renewing their respective leases.

The following table provides a summary of our leases that commenced during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, which included rent concessions during the lease term.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2021, our cash and cash equivalents was approximately $52.3 million and restricted cash was approximately $8.8 million. We also had $670.7 million available for additional borrowings under our Unsecured Credit Facility as of September 30, 2021.

We have considered our short-term (through September 30, 2022) liquidity needs and the adequacy of our estimated cash flow from operations and other expected liquidity sources to meet these needs. We have $72.4 million in mortgage loans payable outstanding at September 30, 2021 that we anticipate paying prior to September 30, 2022. With the exception of these payment obligations, we believe that our principal short-term liquidity needs are to fund normal recurring expenses, property acquisitions, developments, renovations, expansions and other nonrecurring capital improvements, debt service requirements, the minimum distributions required to maintain the Company's REIT qualification under the Code and distributions approved by the Company's Board of Directors. We anticipate that these needs will be met with cash flows provided by operating activities as well as the disposition of select assets. These needs may also be met by the issuance of other debt or equity securities, subject to market conditions, or borrowings under our Unsecured Credit Facility.

We expect to meet long-term (after September 30, 2022) liquidity requirements such as property acquisitions, developments, scheduled debt maturities, major renovations, expansions and other nonrecurring capital improvements through the disposition of select assets, long-term unsecured and secured indebtedness and the issuance of additional equity securities, subject to market conditions.

Our Unsecured Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants including limitations on incurrence of debt and debt service coverage. Our access to borrowings may be limited if we fail to meet any of these covenants. We believe that we were in compliance with our financial covenants as of September 30, 2021, and we anticipate that we will be able to operate in compliance with our financial covenants for the next twelve months.

As of October 22, 2021, we had approximately $590.6 million available for additional borrowings under our Unsecured Credit Facility.

Our senior unsecured notes have been assigned credit ratings from Standard & Poor's, Moody's and Fitch Ratings of BBB/Stable, Baa2/Stable and BBB/Stable, respectively. In the event of a downgrade, we believe we would continue to have access to sufficient capital. However, our cost of borrowing would increase and our ability to access certain financial markets may be limited.

Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	(43,514)		102,059

Changes in cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the prior year comparable period are described as follows:

Operating Activities: Cash provided by operating activities increased $6.3 million for the Company (increased $5.8 million for the Operating Partnership), primarily due to the following:

•increase in NOI from same store properties, acquired properties and recently developed properties of $25.9 million offset by a decrease in NOI due to the disposition of real estate of $11.1 million; and

•increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses, other liabilities, rents received in advance and security deposits due to timing of cash payments; offset by:

•increase in tenant accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets due to timing of cash receipts.

Investing Activities: Cash used in investing activities increased $17.2 million, primarily due to the following:

•increase of $87.1 million related to the acquisition and development of real estate as well as payments for improvements and leasing commissions in 2021 as compared to 2020; and

•decrease of $6.5 million related to the collection of insurance settlement proceeds in 2020; offset by:

•increase in distributions from and a decrease in contributions to our Joint Ventures resulting in a net reduction of $62.8 million in 2021 as compared to 2020;

•decrease of $8.9 million in escrow deposits; and

•increase of $4.6 million in net proceeds received from the disposition of real estate in 2021 as compared to 2020 and collection of a sales-type lease receivable in 2020.

Financing Activities: Cash used in financing activities increased $146.1 million for the Company (increased $145.6 million for the Operating Partnership), primarily due to the following:

•decrease of $300.0 million related to the issuance of unsecured notes in a private placement in 2020;

•increase in repayments of mortgage loans payable of $42.4 million in 2021 compared to 2020;

•a decrease of $19.7 million related to net proceeds from the issuance of 1,076,955 shares of the Company's common stock under our ATM in 2021 as compared to the net proceeds from the issuance of 1,842,281 shares of the Company's common stock under our ATM in 2020; and

•increase in dividend and unit distributions of $9.4 million primarily due to the Company increasing the dividend rate in 2021; offset by:

•increase in net borrowings under our Unsecured Credit Facility of $232.0 million in 2021 compared to 2020.

Market Risk

The following discussion about our risk-management activities includes "forward-looking statements" that involve risk and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Our business subjects us to market risk from interest rates, as described below.

Interest Rate Risk

The following analysis presents the hypothetical gain or loss in earnings, cash flows or fair value of the financial instruments and derivative instruments which are held by us at September 30, 2021 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. While this analysis may have some use as a benchmark, it should not be viewed as a forecast.

In the normal course of business, we also face risks that are either non-financial or non-quantifiable. Such risks principally include credit risk and legal risk and are not represented in the following analysis.

At September 30, 2021, $1,541.6 million or 95.4% of our total debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs, was fixed rate debt. As of the same date, $74.0 million, or 4.6% of our total debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs, was variable rate debt. At December 31, 2020, our total debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs, was $1,602.7 million and 100% was fixed rate debt. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the fixed rate debt amounts include variable rate debt that has been effectively swapped to a fixed rate through the use of derivative instruments with an aggregate notional amount outstanding of $460.0 million, that mitigate our exposure to our Unsecured Term Loans' variable interest rates, which are based on LIBOR.

The use of derivative financial instruments allows us to manage the risks increases in interest rates would have on our earnings and cash flows. Currently, we do not enter into financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.

For fixed rate debt, changes in interest rates generally affect the fair value of the debt, but not our earnings or cash flows. Conversely, for variable rate debt, changes in the base interest rate used to calculate the all-in interest rate generally do not impact the fair value of the debt, but would affect our future earnings and cash flows. The interest rate risk and changes in fair market value of fixed rate debt generally do not have a significant impact on us until we are required to refinance such debt. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the maturity dates of our various fixed rate debt.

Our variable rate debt is subject to risk based upon prevailing market interest rates. If the LIBOR rates relevant to our variable rate debt were to have increased 10%, we estimate that our interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 would have increased by approximately $0.005 million based on our average outstanding floating-rate debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Additionally, if weighted average interest rates on our weighted average fixed rate debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were to have increased by 10% due to refinancing, interest expense would have increased by approximately $4.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

On March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) that regulates LIBOR announced that USD-LIBOR will no longer be published after June 30, 2023. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) has proposed that the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) is the rate that represents best practice as the alternative to USD-LIBOR for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to USD-LIBOR. ARRC has proposed a paced market transition plan to SOFR from USD-LIBOR and organizations are currently working on industry wide and company specific transition plans as it relates to derivatives and cash markets exposed to USD-LIBOR.

We anticipate that LIBOR will continue to be available substantially in its current form at least until June 30, 2023. Although many of our LIBOR-based obligations provide for alternative methods of calculating the interest rate payable if LIBOR is not reported, however the extent and manner of any future changes with respect to methods of calculating LIBOR or replacing LIBOR with another benchmark are unknown and impossible to predict at this time and, as such, may result in interest rates that are materially higher than current interest rates. We are monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks.

As of September 30, 2021, the estimated fair value of our debt was approximately $1,705.7 million based on our estimate of the then-current market interest rates.

Supplemental Earnings Measure

Investors in and industry analysts following the real estate industry utilize funds from operations ("FFO") and net operating income ("NOI") as supplemental operating performance measures of an equity REIT. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time through depreciation. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry analysts and investors prefer to supplement operating results that use historical cost accounting with measures such as FFO and NOI, among others. We provide information related to FFO and same store NOI ("SS NOI") both because such industry analysts are interested in such information, and because our management believes FFO and SS NOI are important performance measures. FFO and SS NOI are factors used by management in measuring our performance, including for purposes of determining the compensation of our executive officers under our 2021 incentive compensation plan.

Neither FFO nor SS NOI should be considered as a substitute for net income, or any other measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Neither FFO nor SS NOI represents cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and neither should be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity, nor is either indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions.

Funds From Operations

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") has recognized and defined for the real estate industry a supplemental measure of REIT operating performance, FFO, that excludes historical cost depreciation, among other items, from net income determined in accordance with GAAP. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure. FFO is calculated by us in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of NAREIT and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. In accordance with the restated NAREIT definition of FFO, we calculate FFO to be equal to net income available to First Industrial Realty Trust, Inc.'s common stockholders and participating securities, plus depreciation and other amortization of real estate, plus impairment of real estate, minus gain or plus loss on sale of real estate, net of any income tax provision or benefit associated with the sale of real estate. We also exclude the same adjustments from our share of net income from unconsolidated joint ventures.

Management believes that the use of FFO available to common stockholders and participating securities, combined with net income (which remains the primary measure of performance), improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and makes comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management believes that, by excluding gains or losses related to sales of real estate assets, impairment of real estate assets and real estate asset depreciation and amortization, investors and analysts are able to identify the operating results of the long-term assets that form the core of a REIT's activity and use these operating results for assistance in comparing these operating results between periods or to those of different companies.

The following table shows a reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders and participating securities to the calculation of FFO available to common stockholders and participating securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

Same Store Net Operating Income

SS NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that provides a measure of rental operations and, as calculated by us, that does not factor in depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expense, interest expense, income tax benefit and expense, and equity in income or loss from our joint ventures. We define SS NOI as revenues minus property expenses such as real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, property management, utilities, insurance and other expenses, minus the NOI of properties that are not same store properties and minus the impact of straight-line rent, above and below market rent amortization and lease termination fees. We exclude straight-line rent and above (below) market rent in calculating SS NOI because we believe it provides a better measure of actual cash basis rental growth for a year-over-year comparison. As so defined, SS NOI may not be comparable to same store net operating income or similar measures reported by other REITs that define same store properties or NOI differently. The major factors influencing SS NOI are occupancy levels, rental rate increases or decreases and tenant recoveries increases or decreases. Our success depends largely upon our ability to lease space and to recover the operating costs associated with those leases from our tenants.

The following table shows a reconciliation of the same store revenues and property expenses disclosed in the results of operations (and reconciled to revenues and expenses reflected on the statements of operations) to SS NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

(A) The nine months ended September 30, 2020 includes $1.1 million of insurance settlement gain related to a building destroyed by fire in 2016. Excluding this gain, the percent increase to Same Store Net Operating Income would be 3.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Subsequent Events

From October 1, 2021 to October 22, 2021, we acquired three land parcels for a purchase price of $18.8 million, excluding transaction costs. In addition, we sold four industrial properties for $7.3 million, excluding transaction costs.
