Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
Equity One, Inc. (the “Company” or “Equity One”), a Maryland corporation, is hereby providing the fair value of its investment property in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard 13, "Fair Value Measurement," and International Accounting Standard 40, "Investment Property," as of March 31, 2014. As announced previously, the Company has agreed to provide this information to Gazit-Globe Ltd. (“Gazit”), its major indirect stockholder, in connection with Gazit's financial reports which are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").
IFRS permit fair value accounting for investment property, which includes property held for development and for sale. In addition, in accordance with IFRS, the value of straight-line rent receivables, deferred costs and intangible assets and liabilities related to income-producing property are not presented separately since they are included within the fair values of income-producing property.
The Company recently completed a valuation review at March 31, 2014 to determine the fair value of its existing investment property portfolio. Based upon this review, Equity One determined that, as of March 31, 2014, the fair value of its investment property was approximately $4.0 billion.
The determination of these values required management to make significant estimates and assumptions, and the actual values achieved in the event of any disposition of investment property may differ from the values incorporated into the fair value determination noted above.
The information contained in this report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” with the Securities and Exchange Commission nor incorporated by reference in any registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
