EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2014, of Post Properties, Inc. and Post Apartment Homes, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Post Properties” or the “Company” mean Post Properties, Inc. and its controlled and consolidated subsidiaries. References to “Post Apartment Homes” or the “Operating Partnership” mean Post Apartment Homes, L.P. and its controlled and consolidated subsidiaries. The terms “the Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to the Company or the Company and the Operating Partnership collectively, as the text requires.

The Company is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and the general partner of the Operating Partnership. As of June 30, 2014, the Company owned an approximate 99.8% interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining 0.2% interests are owned by persons other than the Company.

Management believes that combining the two quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the Company and the Operating Partnership provides the following benefits:

•

Combined reports better reflect how management and the analyst community view the business as a single operating unit;

•

Combined reports enhance investors’ understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business and its results as a whole and in the same manner as management;

•

Combined reports are more efficiently prepared by the Company and the Operating Partnership and result in time and cost efficiencies; and

•

Combined reports are more efficiently reviewed by investors and analysts by reducing the amount of duplicate disclosures.

Management operates the Company and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of the Company is comprised of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership. These individuals are officers of the Company and employees of the Operating Partnership.

The Company believes it is important to understand the few differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how these two entities operate as a consolidated company. The Company is a REIT, and its only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. As a result, the Company does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing public equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership holds all of the assets and indebtedness of the Company and retains the ownership interests in the Company’s joint ventures. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by the Company, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by the Company’s business. These sources include the Operating Partnership’s operations and its direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness.

There are a few differences in the disclosures for the Company and the Operating Partnership which are reflected and presented as such in the consolidated footnotes to the financial statements to this Form 10-Q. Noncontrolling interests and the presentation of equity are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Operating Partnership. The Company’s consolidated statement of operations reflects a reduction to income for the noncontrolling interests held by the Operating Partnership’s unitholders other than the Company (0.2% at June 30, 2014). This quarterly report on Form 10-Q presents the following separate financial information for both the Company and the Operating Partnership:

•

Consolidated financial statements;

•

The following information in the notes to the consolidated financial statements:

•

Computation of earnings per share for the Company

•

Computation of earnings per unit for the Operating Partnership

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

1.	ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

Post Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries develop, own and manage upscale multi-family apartment communities in selected markets in the United States. The Company through its wholly-owned subsidiaries is the sole general partner, a limited partner and owns a majority interest in Post Apartment Homes, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), a Georgia limited partnership. The Operating Partnership, through its operating divisions and subsidiaries conducts substantially all of the on-going operations of the Company, a publicly traded corporation which operates as a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”). As used herein, the term “Company” includes Post Properties, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Post Apartment Homes, L.P., unless the context indicates otherwise.

The Company has elected to qualify and operate as a self-administrated and self-managed REIT for federal income tax purposes. A REIT is a legal entity which holds real estate interests and is generally not subject to federal income tax on the income it distributes to its shareholders. The Operating Partnership is governed under the provisions of a limited partnership agreement, as amended. Under the provisions of the limited partnership agreement, as amended, Operating Partnership net profits, net losses and cash flow (after allocations to preferred ownership interests) are allocated to the partners in proportion to their common ownership interests. Cash distributions from the Operating Partnership shall be, at a minimum, sufficient to enable the Company to satisfy its annual dividend requirements to maintain its REIT status under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

At June 30, 2014, the Company had interests in 22,596 apartment units in 60 communities, including 1,471 apartment units in four communities held in unconsolidated entities and 1,201 apartment units in four communities currently under development or in lease-up. At June 30, 2014, approximately 29.3%, 22.1%, 13.6% and 9.9% (on a unit basis) of the Company’s operating communities were located in the Atlanta, Georgia, Dallas, Texas, the greater Washington, D.C. and Tampa, Florida metropolitan areas, respectively.

At June 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding 54,377 shares of common stock and owned the same number of units of common limited partnership interests (“Common Units”) in the Operating Partnership, representing a 99.8% ownership interest in the Operating Partnership. Common Units held by persons other than the Company totaled 135 at June 30, 2014 and represented a 0.2% common minority interest in the Operating Partnership. Each Common Unit may be redeemed by the holder thereof for either one share of Company common stock or cash equal to the fair market value thereof at the time of redemption, at the option, but outside the control, of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership presently anticipates that it will cause shares of common stock to be issued in connection with each such redemption rather than paying cash (as has been done in all redemptions to date). With each redemption of outstanding Common Units for Company common stock, the Company’s percentage ownership interest in the Operating Partnership will increase. In addition, whenever the Company issues shares of common stock, the Company will contribute any net proceeds therefrom to the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership will issue an equivalent number of Common Units to the Company. The Company’s weighted average common ownership interest in the Operating Partnership was 99.8% and 99.7% for the three months and 99.8% and 99.7% and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company’s management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normally recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership and their wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company also consolidates other entities in which it has a controlling financial interest or entities where it is determined to be the primary beneficiary under ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation.” Under ASC Topic 810, variable interest entities (“VIEs”) are generally entities that lack sufficient equity to finance their activities without additional financial support from other parties or whose equity holders lack adequate decision making ability. The primary beneficiary is required to consolidate a VIE for financial reporting purposes. The application of ASC Topic 810 requires management to make significant estimates and judgments about the Company’s and its other partners’ rights, obligations and economic interests in such entities. For entities in which

POST PROPERTIES, INC. AND POST APARTMENT HOMES, L.P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

the Company has less than a controlling financial interest or entities where it is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary, the entities are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company’s share of the net earnings or losses of these entities is included in consolidated net income. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s noncontrolling interest of common unitholders (also referred to as “Redeemable Common Units”) in the operations of the Operating Partnership is calculated based on the weighted average unit ownership during the period.

Revenue recognition

Residential properties are leased under operating leases with terms of generally one year or less. Rental revenues from residential leases are recognized on the straight-line method over the approximate life of the leases, which is generally one year. The recognition of rental revenues from residential leases when earned has historically not been materially different from rental revenues recognized on a straight-line basis.

Under the terms of residential leases, the residents of the Company’s residential communities are obligated to reimburse the Company for certain utility usage, water and electricity (at selected properties), where the Company is the primary obligor to the public utility entity. These utility reimbursements from residents are reflected as other property revenues in the consolidated statements of operations.

Sales and the associated gains or losses of real estate assets and for-sale condominiums were recognized in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360-20, “Property, Plant and Equipment – Real Estate Sales.” In periods prior to the sale of the Company’s final condominium unit in the first quarter of 2014, the Company accounted for condominium sales under the deposit method based on an evaluation of the factors specified in ASC Topic 360-20. The Company has no remaining investments in condominium communities. Under ASC Topic 360-20, the Company used the relative sales value method to allocate costs and recognize profits from condominium sales. Under the relative sales value method, estimates of aggregate project revenues and aggregate project costs were used to determine the allocation of project cost of sales and the resulting profit in each accounting period. In subsequent periods, cumulative project cost of sale allocations and the resulting profits were adjusted to reflect changes in the actual and estimated costs and revenues of each project.

Cost capitalization

For communities under development or construction, the Company capitalizes interest, real estate taxes, and certain internal personnel and associated costs associated with the development and construction activity. Interest is capitalized to projects under development or construction based upon the weighted average cumulative project costs for each month multiplied by the Company’s weighted average borrowing costs, expressed as a percentage. Weighted average borrowing costs include the costs of the Company’s fixed rate secured and unsecured borrowings and the variable rate unsecured borrowings under its line of credit facilities. The weighted average borrowing costs, expressed as a percentage, was 4.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. Aggregate interest costs capitalized to projects under development or construction were $755 and $1,092 for the three months and $1,601 and $2,096 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Internal development and construction personnel and associated costs are capitalized to projects under development or construction based upon the effort associated with such projects. Aggregate internal development and construction personnel and associated costs capitalized to projects under development or construction were $512 and $670 for the three months and $1,001 and $1,426 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company treats each unit in an apartment community separately for cost accumulation, capitalization and expense recognition purposes. Prior to the completion of rental and condominium units, interest and other construction costs are capitalized and reflected on the balance sheet as construction in progress. The Company ceases the capitalization of such costs as the residential units in a community become substantially complete and available for occupancy or sale. This results in a proration of costs between amounts that are capitalized and expensed as the residential units in apartment and condominium development communities become available for occupancy or sale. In addition, prior to the completion of rental units, the Company expenses as incurred substantially all operating expenses (including pre-opening marketing as well as property management and leasing personnel expenses) of such rental communities. Prior to the completion and closing of condominium units, the Company expenses all sales and marketing costs related to such units.

Real estate assets, depreciation and impairment

Real estate assets are stated at the lower of depreciated cost or fair value, if deemed impaired. Major replacements and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the properties (buildings and components – 40 years; other building and land improvements – 20 years; furniture, fixtures and equipment – 5-10 years).

POST PROPERTIES, INC. AND POST APARTMENT HOMES, L.P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

The Company continually evaluates the recoverability of the carrying value of its real estate assets using the methodology prescribed in ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment.” Factors considered by management in evaluating impairment of its existing real estate assets held for investment include significant declines in property operating profits, annually recurring property operating losses and other significant adverse changes in general market conditions that are considered permanent in nature. Under ASC Topic 360, a real estate asset held for investment is not considered impaired if the undiscounted, estimated future cash flows of an asset (both the annual estimated cash flow from future operations and the estimated cash flow from the theoretical sale of the asset) over its estimated holding period are in excess of the asset’s net book value at the balance sheet date. If any real estate asset held for investment is considered impaired, a loss is provided to reduce the carrying value of the asset to its estimated fair value.

The Company periodically classifies real estate assets as held for sale. An asset is classified as held for sale after the approval of the Company’s board of directors and after an active program to sell the asset has commenced. Upon the classification of a real estate asset as held for sale, the carrying value of the asset is reduced to the lower of its net book value or its estimated fair value, less costs to sell the asset. Subsequent to the classification of assets as held for sale, no further depreciation expense is recorded. Real estate assets held for sale are stated separately on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Upon a decision to no longer market an asset for sale, the asset is classified as an operating asset and depreciation expense is reinstated. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had two apartment communities classified as held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet.

Derivative financial instruments

The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments at fair value under the provisions of ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” The Company measures derivative financial instruments subject to master netting agreements on a net basis. The Company uses derivative financial instruments, primarily interest rate swap arrangements to manage or hedge its exposure to interest rate changes. Under ASC Topic 815, derivative instruments qualifying as hedges of specific cash flows are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with an offsetting increase or decrease to accumulated other comprehensive income, an equity account, until the hedged transactions are recognized in earnings. Quarterly, the Company evaluates the effectiveness of its cash flow hedges. Any ineffective portion of cash flow hedges is recognized immediately in earnings.

Fair value measurements

The Company applies the guidance in ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” to the valuation of real estate assets recorded at fair value, if any, to its impairment valuation analysis of real estate assets, to its disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments, principally indebtedness and to its derivative financial instruments. Fair value disclosures required under ASC Topic 820 are summarized in note 8 utilizing the following hierarchy:

•

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

•

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

•

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the assets or liability.

Recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements (discontinued operations)

In May 2014, Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (“ASU 2014-09”), “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” was issued. This new guidance establishes a single comprehensive revenue recognition model under U.S. GAAP and provides for enhanced disclosures. Under this new guidance, the amount of revenue recognized for certain transactions could differ from amounts recognized under existing accounting guidance and could also result in recognition in different reporting periods. Also, the provisions of ASU 2014-09 exclude revenue recognition regarding lease contracts. The new guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company expects to adopt ASU 2014-09 as of January 1, 2017 and is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance may have on its results of operations.

result in fewer asset disposals being reported as discontinued operations in the Company’s financial statements. ASU 2014-08 is to be applied prospectively for periods on or after December 31, 2014 with early adoption permitted, but only for assets held for sale or sold that have not been reported in previously issued financial statements. The Company early adopted ASU 2014-08, effective as of January 1, 2014 (see note 2).

2.	REAL ESTATE ACTIVITY

Dispositions

Assets held for sale/sold subsequent to January 1, 2014

In the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company classified three apartment communities, containing 645 units, as held for sale. In May 2014, one of these apartment communities located in Houston, Texas, containing 308 units, was sold for gross proceeds of approximately $71,750. The Company recognized a gain of $36,092 on the sale of this community. At June 30, 2014, assets held for sale included two communities, containing 337 units, located in New York, New York. These real estate assets classified as held for sale are reported separately on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at $107,229, which represents the lower of their depreciated cost or fair value less costs to sell. This disposition activity is part of the Company’s on-going investment strategy of recycling investment capital to fund investment and development of apartment communities.

The carrying amount of the major components of assets and liabilities of the two communities reflected as held for sale on the balance sheet were as follows:

3.	INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED REAL ESTATE ENTITIES

At June 30, 2014, the Company held investments in two individual limited liability companies (the “Apartment LLCs”) with institutional investors that own four apartment communities, including three communities located in Atlanta, Georgia and one community located in Washington, D.C. The Company has a 25% and 35% equity interest in these Apartment LLCs.

The Company accounts for its investments in the Apartment LLCs using the equity method of accounting. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company’s investment in the 35% owned Apartment LLC totaled $4,071 and $4,056, respectively, excluding the credit investments discussed below. The Company’s investment in the 25% owned Apartment LLC at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 reflects a credit investment of $16,844 and $16,687, respectively. These credit balances resulted from distribution of financing proceeds in excess of the Company’s historical cost upon the formation of the Apartment LLC and are reflected in consolidated liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The operating results of the Company include its allocable share of net income from the investments in the Apartment LLCs. The Company provides property and asset management services to the Apartment LLCs for which it earns fees.

A summary of financial information for the Apartment LLCs in the aggregate is as follows:

Total				$	976,760	$	1,098,734

(1)	There are no maturities of senior unsecured notes in 2014. The remaining unsecured notes mature between 2017 and 2022.

(2)	Represents stated rate at June 30, 2014. As discussed below, the Company has entered into interest rate swap arrangements that effectively fix the interest rate under this facility. At June 30, 2014, the effective blended interest rate under the Term Loan was 3.24%.

(3)	There are no maturities of secured notes in 2014. These notes mature between 2018 and 2019.

Debt maturities

The aggregate maturities of the Company’s indebtedness are as follows:


Remainder of 2014	$	1,987
2015		4,205
2016		4,418
2017		154,736
2018		350,958
Thereafter		460,456

	$	976,760

Debt issuances and retirements

In May 2014, the Company prepaid $120,000 of secured mortgage indebtedness using available cash and line of credit borrowings, which were largely repaid from the net proceeds of an apartment community sale (see note 2). The indebtedness was scheduled to initially mature in February 2015, and the stated rate on the indebtedness was 4.88%. In conjunction with the prepayment, the Company recognized an extinguishment loss of $4,287 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 related to the payment of prepayment premiums and the write-off of unamortized deferred loan costs.

Unsecured lines of credit

At June 30, 2014, the Company had a $300,000 syndicated unsecured revolving line of credit (the “Syndicated Line”). At June 30, 2014, the Syndicated Line had a stated interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.225%, was provided by a syndicate of eleven financial institutions and required the payment of annual facility fees of 0.225% of the aggregate loan commitments. The Syndicated Line matures in January 2016 and may be extended for an additional year at the Company’s option, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Syndicated Line provides for the interest rate and facility fee rate to be adjusted up or down based on changes in the credit ratings on the Company’s senior unsecured debt. The components of the interest rate and the facility fee rate that are based on the Company’s credit ratings range from 1.00% to 1.80% and from 0.15% to 0.40%, respectively. The Syndicated Line also includes a competitive bid option for borrowings up to 50% of the loan commitments, which may result in interest rates for such borrowings below the stated interest rates for the Syndicated Line, depending on market conditions. The credit agreement for the Syndicated Line contains customary restrictions, representations, covenants and events of default, including minimum fixed charge coverage, minimum unsecured interest coverage, and maximum leverage ratios. The Syndicated Line also restricts the amount of capital the Company can invest in specific categories of assets, such as improved land, properties under construction, condominium properties, non-multifamily properties, debt or equity securities, notes receivable and unconsolidated affiliates. The Syndicated Line prohibits the Company from investing further capital in condominium assets and certain mixed-use projects, as defined. At June 30, 2014, letters of credit to third parties totaling $420 had been issued for the account of the Company under this facility.

Additionally, at June 30, 2014, the Company had a $30,000 unsecured line of credit (the “Cash Management Line”). The Cash Management Line matures in January 2016, includes a one-year extension option, and carries pricing and terms, including financial covenants, substantially consistent with the Syndicated Line.

Unsecured term loan

At June 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding a $300,000 unsecured bank term loan facility provided by a syndicate of eight financial institutions (the “Term Loan”). As of June 30, 2014, the Term Loan carried a stated interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.70%. The Term Loan provides for the stated interest rate to be adjusted up or down based on changes in the credit ratings on the Company’s senior unsecured debt. The component of the interest rate based on the Company’s credit ratings ranges from 1.50% to 2.30%. The Term Loan matures in January 2018, includes two six-month extension options, and carries other terms, including financial covenants, substantially consistent with the Syndicated Line discussed above. As discussed in note 8, the Company entered into interest rate swap arrangements to serve as cash flow hedges of amounts outstanding under the Term Loan. The interest rate swap arrangements effectively fix the LIBOR component of the interest rate paid under the Term Loan at a blended rate of approximately 1.54%. As a result, the effective blended interest rate on the Term Loan was 3.24% as of June 30, 2014 (subject to any adjustment based on subsequent changes in the Company’s credit ratings).

Debt compliance and other

The Company’s Syndicated Line, Cash Management Line, Term Loan and senior unsecured notes contain customary restrictions, representations, covenants and events of default and require the Company to meet certain financial covenants. Debt service and fixed charge coverage covenants require the Company to maintain coverages of a minimum of 1.5 to 1.0, as defined in applicable debt arrangements. Additionally, the Company’s ratio of unencumbered adjusted property-level net operating income to unsecured interest expense may not be less than 2.0 to 1.0, as defined in the applicable debt arrangements. Leverage covenants generally require the Company to maintain calculated covenants above/below minimum/maximum thresholds. The primary leverage ratios under these arrangements include total debt to total asset value (maximum of 60%), total secured debt to total asset value (maximum of 40%) and unencumbered assets to unsecured debt (minimum of 1.5 to 1.0), as defined in the applicable debt arrangements. The Company believes it met these financial covenants at June 30, 2014.

5.	EQUITY AND NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

Common stock

In May 2012, the Company adopted an at-the-market (“ATM”) common equity sales program for the sale of up to 4,000 shares of common stock. At June 30, 2014, the Company had not used this program and had 4,000 shares remaining for issuance. There were no sales of common stock for the three or six months ended June 30, 2014 or 2013 under this program. In future periods, the Company and the Operating Partnership may use the proceeds from this program for general corporate purposes.

In December 2012, the Company’s board of directors adopted a stock and unsecured note repurchase program under which the Company and the Operating Partnership may repurchase up to $200,000 of common and preferred stock and unsecured notes through December 2014. There were no shares of common stock or unsecured notes repurchased for the three or six months ended June 30, 2014 under this repurchase program. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company repurchased 550 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of $24,800 and at an average gross price per share of $45.08.

Noncontrolling interests

In accordance with ASC Topic 810, the Company and the Operating Partnership determined that the noncontrolling interests related to the common units of the Operating Partnership, held by persons other than the Company, met the criterion to be classified and accounted for as “temporary” equity (reflected outside of total equity as “Redeemable Common Units”). At June 30, 2014, the aggregate redemption value of the noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership of $7,235 was in excess of its net book value of $2,848. At December 31, 2013, the aggregate redemption value of the noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership of $6,121 was in excess of its net book value of $2,792. The Company further determined that the noncontrolling interests in its consolidated real estate entities met the criterion to be classified and accounted for as a component of permanent equity.

8.	FAIR VALUE MEASURES AND OTHER FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

From time to time, the Company records certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Real estate assets may be stated at fair value if they become impaired in a given period and may be stated at fair value if they are held for sale and the fair value of such assets is below historical cost. Additionally, the Company records derivative financial instruments at fair value. The Company also uses fair value metrics to evaluate the carrying values of its real estate assets and for the disclosure of certain financial instruments. Fair value measurements were determined by management using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies available to management at June 30, 2014. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and estimate fair value. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the estimates discussed herein, using Level 2 and 3 inputs, are indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the real estate assets or other financial instruments. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Real estate assets

The Company periodically reviews its real estate assets, including operating assets, construction in progress and land held for future investment, for impairment purposes using Level 3 inputs, primarily comparable sales and market data, independent valuations and discounted cash flow models. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not recognize any impairment charges related to its real estate assets.

Derivatives and other financial instruments

The Company manages its exposure to interest rate changes through the use of derivative financial instruments, primarily interest rate swap arrangements. At June 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding three interest rate swap arrangements with substantially similar terms and conditions. These arrangements have an aggregate notional amount of $230,000 and require the Company to pay a blended fixed rate of approximately 1.55% (with the counterparties paying the Company the floating one-month LIBOR rate). Additionally, the Company had outstanding a fourth interest rate swap arrangement with a notional amount of $70,000 and it requires the Company to pay a fixed rate of approximately 1.50% (with the counterparty paying the Company the floating one-month LIBOR rate) (together,

POST PROPERTIES, INC. AND POST APARTMENT HOMES, L.P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

the “Interest Rate Swaps”). The Interest Rate Swaps serve as cash flow hedges of amounts outstanding under the Company’s variable rate Term Loan (see note 4) and provide for an effective blended fixed rate for the corresponding amount of Term Loan borrowings, of approximately 3.24% at June 30, 2014 (subject to an adjustment based on subsequent changes in the Company’s credit ratings). The Interest Rate Swaps terminate in January 2018.

The Interest Rate Swaps are measured and accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. The Interest Rate Swaps outstanding at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were valued as net liabilities of $4,915 and $3,428, respectively, primarily using level 2 inputs, as substantially all of the fair value was determined using widely accepted discounted cash flow valuation techniques along with observable market-based inputs for similar types of arrangements. The Company reflects both the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risks and its own nonperformance risks in its fair value measurements using unobservable inputs. However, the impact of such risks was not considered material to the overall fair value measurements of the derivatives. These liabilities are included in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Under ASC Topic 815, a corresponding amount is included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), an equity account, until the hedged transactions are recognized in earnings. The following table summarizes the effect of these Interest Rate Swaps (designated as cash flow hedges) on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:


	Three months ended June 30,						Six months ended June 30,
Interest Rate Swap / Cash Flow Hedging Instruments	2014			2013			2013			2012
Gain (loss) recognized in other comprehensive income	$	(2,553	)	$	6,162		$	(3,563	)	$	6,089

Loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into interest expense	$	(1,046	)	$	(1,013	)	$	(2,076	)	$	(2,011	)

The amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income as of June 30, 2014 will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made under the hedged indebtedness. Over the next year, the Company estimates that $4,101 will be reclassified from accumulated comprehensive income to interest expense.

As part of the Company’s on-going procedures, the Company monitors the credit worthiness of its financial institution counterparties and its exposure to any single entity, which it believes minimizes credit risk concentration. The Company believes the likelihood of realized losses from counterparty non-performance is remote. The Interest Rate Swaps are cross defaulted with the Company’s Term Loan and Syndicated Line (see note 4) and contain certain provisions consistent with these types of arrangements. If the Company was required to terminate the Interest Rate Swaps and settle the obligations thereunder as of June 30, 2014, the termination payment by the Company would have been approximately $4,924.

Other financial instruments

Cash equivalents, rents and accounts receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. At June 30, 2014, the fair value of fixed rate debt was approximately $713,117 (carrying value of $676,760) and the fair value of variable rate debt, including the Company’s lines of credit, was approximately $305,509 (carrying value of $300,000). At December 31, 2013, the fair value of fixed rate debt was approximately $816,582 (carrying value of $798,734) and the fair value of variable rate debt, including the Company’s lines of credit, was approximately $305,653 (carrying value of $300,000). Long-term indebtedness was valued using Level 2 inputs, primarily market prices of comparable debt instruments.

9.	SEGMENT INFORMATION

Segment description

In accordance with ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” the Company presents segment information based on the way that management organizes the segments within the enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing performance. The segment information is prepared on the same basis as the internally reported information used by the Company’s chief operating decision makers to manage the business.

The Company’s chief operating decision makers focus on the Company’s primary sources of income from apartment community rental

operations. Apartment community rental operations are generally broken down into segments based on the various stages in the apartment community ownership lifecycle. These segments are described below. All commercial properties and other ancillary service and support operations are combined in the line item “other property segments” in the accompanying segment information. The segment information presented below reflects the segment categories based on the lifecycle status of each community as of January 1, 2013. The segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 has been adjusted to reflect the impact of reclassifying, from the fully stabilized community segment to the held for sale and sold community segment, the operating results of three apartment communities designated as held for sale or sold in 2014 as described below.

•

Fully stabilized communities – those apartment communities which have been stabilized (the earlier of the point at which a property reaches 95% occupancy or one year after completion of construction) for both 2014 and 2013.

•

Newly stabilized communities – those apartment communities which reached stabilized occupancy in 2013.

•

Lease-up communities – those apartment communities that are under development and lease-up but were not stabilized by the beginning of 2014, including communities that stabilized in 2014.

•

Segment performance measure

Management uses contribution to consolidated property net operating income (“NOI”) as the performance measure for its operating segments. The Company uses NOI, including NOI of stabilized communities, as an operating measure. NOI is defined as rental and other property revenue from real estate operations less total property and maintenance expenses from real estate operations (excluding depreciation and amortization). The Company believes that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for a REIT’s operating real estate because it provides a measure of the core operations, rather than factoring in depreciation and amortization, financing costs and general and administrative expenses generally incurred at the corporate level. This measure is particularly useful, in the opinion of the Company, in evaluating the performance of operating segment groupings and individual properties. Additionally, the Company believes that NOI, as defined, is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate investment community. The Company believes that the line on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations entitled “net income (loss)” is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to NOI.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

As the primary operating subsidiary of the Company, the Operating Partnership participates in and bears the compensation expenses associated with the Company’s stock-based compensation plans. The information discussed below relating to the Company’s stock-based compensation plans is also applicable for the Operating Partnership.

Incentive stock plans

Incentive stock awards are granted under the Company’s 2003 Incentive Stock Plan, as amended and restated in October 2008 (the “2003 Stock Plan”). Under the 2003 Stock Plan, an aggregate of 3,469 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance. Of this amount, stock grants count against the total shares available under the 2003 Stock Plan as 2.7 shares for every one share issued, while options (and stock appreciation rights (“SAR”) settled in shares) count against the total shares available as one share for every one share issued on the exercise of an option (or SAR). The exercise price of each option granted under the 2003 Stock Plan may not be less than the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the option grant and all options may have a maximum life of ten years. Participants receiving restricted stock grants are generally eligible to vote such shares and receive dividends on such shares. Substantially all stock option and restricted stock grants are subject to annual vesting provisions (generally three to five years) as determined by the compensation committee overseeing the 2003 Stock Plan.

Compensation costs for stock options have been estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing method. The weighted average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model are as follows:


	Six months ended June 30,
	2014	2013
Dividend yield	2.8%	2.0%
Expected volatility	43.0%	43.1%
Risk-free interest rate	1.8%	1.1%
Expected option term (years)	6.0 years	6.0 years

The Company’s assumptions were derived from the methodologies discussed herein. The expected dividend yield reflects the Company’s current historical yield, which was expected to approximate the future yield at the date of grant. Expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk-free interest rate for the expected life of the options was based on the implied yields on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the date of grant. The weighted average expected option term was based on the Company’s historical data for prior period stock option exercise and forfeiture activity.

Restricted stock

Compensation cost for restricted stock is amortized ratably into compensation expense over the applicable vesting periods. Total compensation expense related to restricted stock was $818 and $802 for the three months and $1,588 and $1,473 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. At June 30, 2014, there was $4,099 of unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years.

A summary of the activity related to the Company’s restricted stock for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 is as follows:


	Six months ended June 30,
	2014					2013
	Shares			Weighted-Avg. Grant-Date Fair Value		Shares			Weighted-Avg. Grant-Date Fair Value

Stock options

Compensation cost for stock options is amortized ratably into compensation expense over the applicable vesting periods. The Company recorded compensation expense related to stock options of $134 and $105 for the three months and $273 and $221 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, recognized under the fair value method. At June 30, 2014, there was $694 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.0 years.

A summary of stock option activity under all plans for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, is presented below:


	Six months ended June 30,
	2014					2013

(1)

At June 30, 2014, the aggregate intrinsic value of stock options outstanding, exercisable and vested/expected to vest was $5,757, $5,387 and $5,741, respectively. At that same date, the weighted average remaining contractual lives of stock options outstanding, exercisable and vested/expected to vest was 4.5 years, 3.6 years and 4.5 years, respectively.

Upon the exercise of stock options, the Company issues shares of common stock from treasury shares or, to the extent treasury shares are not available, from authorized common shares. The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $3,160 and $927, respectively.

At June 30, 2014, the Company segregated its outstanding options into two ranges, based on exercise prices, as follows:


Option Ranges	Options Outstanding						Options Exercisable
	Shares		Weighted Avg. Exercise Price		Weighted Avg. Life (Years)		Shares		Weighted Avg. Exercise Price
$12.22 - $44.05		199	$	29		4.2		190	$	29

Total		373		38		4.5		311		36

Employee stock purchase plan

The Company maintains an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) approved by Company shareholders in 2005. The maximum number of shares issuable under the ESPP is 300. The purchase price of shares of common stock under the ESPP is equal to 85% of the lesser of the closing price per share of common stock on the first or last day of the trading period, as defined. The Company records the aggregate cost of the ESPP (generally the 15% discount on the share purchases) as a period expense. Total compensation expense relating to the ESPP was $39 and $37 for the three months and $78 and $74 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

11.

INCOME TAXES

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). To qualify as a REIT, the Company must distribute annually at least 90% of its adjusted taxable income, as defined in the Code, to its shareholders and satisfy certain other organizational and operating requirements. It is management’s current intention to adhere to these requirements and maintain the Company’s REIT status. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax at the corporate level on the taxable income it distributes to its shareholders. Should the Company fail to qualify as a REIT in any tax year, it may be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. The Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to federal income taxes and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income.

The Operating Partnership files tax returns as a limited partnership under the Code. As a partnership, the income and losses of the Operating Partnership are allocated to its partners, including the Company, for inclusion in their respective income tax returns. Accordingly, no provision or benefit for income taxes has been included in the accompanying financial statements. The Operating Partnership intends to make sufficient cash distributions to the Company to enable it to meet its annual REIT distribution requirements.

In the preparation of income tax returns in federal and state jurisdictions, the Company, the Operating Partnership and their taxable REIT subsidiaries assert certain tax positions based on their understanding and interpretation of the income tax law. The taxing authorities may challenge such positions and the resolution of such matters could result in the payment and recognition of additional income tax expense. Management believes it has used reasonable judgments and conclusions in the preparation of its income tax returns. The Company, the Operating Partnership and their subsidiaries’ (including the taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”)) income tax returns are subject to examination by federal and state tax jurisdictions for years 2010 through 2012. Net income tax loss carryforwards and other tax attributes generated in years prior to 2010 are also subject to challenge in any examination of the 2010 to 2012 tax years.

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company’s TRSs had unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $797 which primarily related to uncertainty regarding the sustainability of certain deductions taken on prior year income tax returns of the TRS with respect to the amortization of certain intangible assets. The uncertainty surrounding this unrecognized tax benefit will generally be clarified in future periods as income tax loss carryforwards are utilized. To the extent these unrecognized tax benefits are ultimately recognized, they may affect the effective tax rate in a future period. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. Accrued interest and penalties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were not material to the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

The TRSs are utilized principally to perform such non-REIT activities as asset and property management, for-sale housing (condominiums) sales and other services. These TRSs are subject to federal and state income taxes. The TRSs recorded no net income tax expense (benefit) for federal income taxes for the three or six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, as a result of the ability to offset book and taxable income (loss), if any, through the use of offsetting valuation allowances resulting from the inability to recognize net deferred tax assets in the current or prior year as discussed below.

The Company’s net deferred tax assets primarily reflect real estate asset basis differences between carrying amounts for financial and income tax reporting purposes, income tax loss carryforwards and the timing of income and expense recognition for certain accrued liabilities and transactions. At December 31, 2013, net deferred tax assets approximately totaled $25,166. At December 31, 2013, management had established valuation allowances to offset such net deferred tax assets due primarily to historical losses at the TRSs in prior years and the variability of the income (loss) of these subsidiaries. The tax benefits associated with such unused valuation allowances may be recognized in future periods, if the TRSs generate sufficient taxable income to utilize such amounts or if the TRSs determine that it is more likely than not that the related deferred tax assets are realizable. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, changes to the components of net deferred tax assets were offset by changes to deferred tax asset valuation allowances.

12.

OTHER EXPENSES

Other expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 included expenses of approximately $502 and $659, respectively, related to the continuation of a strategic initiative to upgrade the Company’s operating and financial software systems. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, other expenses also included estimated casualty losses of $750 primarily related to extreme winter weather conditions in many of the Company’s markets as well as fire damage at one of the Company’s Atlanta, Georgia communities.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In September 2010, the United States Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. The suit alleges various violations of the Fair Housing Act (“FHA”) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) at properties designed, constructed or operated by the Company in the District of Columbia, Virginia, Florida, Georgia, New York, North Carolina and Texas. The plaintiff seeks statutory damages and a civil penalty in unspecified amounts, as well as injunctive relief that includes retrofitting apartments and public use areas to comply with the FHA and the ADA and prohibiting construction or sale of noncompliant units or complexes. The Company filed a motion to transfer the case to the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, where a previous civil case involving alleged violations of the FHA and ADA by the Company was filed and ultimately dismissed. On October 29, 2010, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia issued an opinion finding that the complaint shows that the DOJ’s claims are essentially the same as the previous civil case, and, therefore, granted the Company’s motion and transferred the DOJ’s case to the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. Discovery has closed, and the Court has denied motions filed by the parties relating to additional discovery and expert witnesses. Each party filed Motions for Summary Judgment, which were briefed in April 2014, and are now pending before the Court. Until such time as the court issues rulings on the application of the law to the facts of this case, it is not possible to predict or determine the outcome of the legal proceeding, nor is it possible to estimate the amount of loss, if any, that would be associated with an adverse decision.

The Company is involved in various other legal proceedings incidental to their business from time to time, some of which are expected to be covered by liability or other insurance. Management of the Company believes that any resolution of pending proceedings or liability to the Company which may arise as a result of these various other legal proceedings will not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Company overview

At June 30, 2014, the Company owned approximately 99.8% of the common limited partnership interests (“Common Units”) in the Operating Partnership. Common Units held by persons other than the Company represented a 0.2% common noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership.

The discussion below is combined for the Company and the Operating Partnership as their results of operations and financial conditions are substantially the same except for the effect of the 0.2% weighted average common noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership.

Operations Overview

The following discussion provides an overview of the Company’s operations, and should be read in conjunction with the more full discussion of the Company’s operating results, liquidity and capital resources and risk factors reflected elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Property Operations

Year-over-year same store revenues and net operating income (“NOI”) increased by 2.7% and 1.0%, respectively, in the first half of 2014, as compared to the first half of 2013. The Company’s operating results for the first half of 2014 and its outlook for the remainder of 2014 are more fully discussed in the “Results of Operations” and “Outlook” sections below. The Company’s outlook for the remainder of 2014 is based on the expectation that economic and employment conditions will continue to gradually improve. However, there continues to be significant risk and uncertainty in the economy and the unemployment rate continues to be higher than normal. If the economic recovery was to stall or U.S. economic conditions were to worsen, the Company’s operating results would be adversely affected. Furthermore, development of new multi-family rental units has continued to increase, which has increased the competitive supply of rental units in the markets in which the Company operates. This new supply has contributed to a moderation in the rate of rental income and NOI growth in recent quarters and this trend is expected to continue for the remainder of 2014.

Disposition Activity

In early 2014, the Company initiated the marketing for sale of three apartment communities and associated retail space. Two of the communities, containing 337 units, are located in New York, New York and represent the Company’s only communities in that market. These communities are classified as held for sale on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2014. The third community, continuing 308 units, located in Houston, Texas, was sold in May 2014 for gross proceeds of $71,750.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

The sale of the Houston, Texas community in May 2014 resulted in the recognition of a gain of $36,092 in the second quarter. The net proceeds from this transaction, along with available cash and line of credit borrowings, were used to prepay $120,000 of secured mortgage indebtedness in May 2014. The indebtedness was scheduled to initially mature in February 2015, and the stated rate on the indebtedness was 4.88%. In conjunction with the prepayment, the Company recognized an extinguishment loss of $4,287 related to prepayment premiums and the write-off of unamortized deferred loan costs.

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had the two New York apartment communities held for sale. The Company currently expects to close the sale of these communities in the third quarter of 2014. The anticipated net proceeds from these sales are expected to be used to prepay certain mortgage indebtedness secured by these assets and may be used pay any special dividends that may be required to distribute the Company’s taxable earnings, after various tax planning strategies have been employed, for opportunistic share repurchases, to fund new investment opportunities, and for general corporate purposes. There can be no assurance that future sales will close or that the use of the remaining proceeds may not change.

Development Activity

In the second quarter of 2014, the Company initiated construction of Post Galleria™ in Houston, Texas, consisting of 388 apartment units. In late 2013 and in the first half of 2014, the Company substantially completed construction of Post Parkside™ at Wade in Raleigh, North Carolina, consisting of 397 apartment units and approximately 14,908 square feet of retail space, Post Lake^® at Baldwin Park, Phase III, consisting of 410 apartment units and Post 510™ in Houston, Texas, consisting of 242 apartment units. These communities were 95.7%, 96.8% and 57.4% leased at July 25, 2014, respectively. The Company also began the initial lease-up of Post Soho Square™ in Tampa, Florida in the second quarter of 2014. This community was 46.3% leased at July 25, 2014. The Company had three apartment communities undergoing construction (Post Soho Square™, Post Alexander™, Phase II and Post Galleria™) which are more fully discussed in “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below under the sub-caption “Current Communities Under Development.”

The square footage amounts are approximate and actual amounts may vary. The Company currently expects to utilize available cash, available borrowing capacity under its unsecured bank credit facilities, or other indebtedness, and, from time to time, asset sales and net proceeds from its at-the-market common equity sales program to fund future estimated construction expenditures.

In addition, the Company may commence development activities at more of its existing land sites over the next two years. Management believes, however, that the timing of such development starts will depend largely on a continued favorable outlook for multi-family apartment rentals, capital market conditions and the U.S. economy. Until such time as additional development activities commence or certain land positions are sold, the Company expects that operating results will be adversely impacted by costs of carrying land held for future investment or sale. There can be no assurance that land held for investment will be developed in the future or at all. Although the Company does not believe that any impairment exists at June 30, 2014, should the Company change its expectations regarding the timing and projected undiscounted future cash flows expected from land held for future investment, or the estimated fair value of its assets, the Company could be required to recognize impairment losses in future periods.

Condominium Activity

In the first quarter of 2014, the Company completed the sale of its final available unit at the Ritz-Carlton Residences, Atlanta Buckhead, originally consisting of 126 units. At June 30, 2014, the Company had no further investment in condominium assets.

Other Expenses

Other expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 included expenses of approximately $502 and $659, respectively, related to the continuation of a strategic initiative to upgrade the Company’s operating and financial software systems. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, other expenses also included estimated casualty losses of $750 related to extreme weather conditions in many of the Company’s markets as well as fire damage at one of the Company’s Atlanta, Georgia communities.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the selected financial data and with all of the accompanying consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report. This discussion is combined for the Company and the Operating Partnership as their results of operations and financial condition are substantially the same except for the effect of the 0.2% weighted average common minority interest in the Operating Partnership. See the summary financial information in the section below titled, “Results of Operations.”

Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this report, and other written or oral statements made by or on behalf of the Company, may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. In addition, the Company, or the executive officers on the Company’s behalf, may from time to time make forward-looking statements in reports and other documents the Company files with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) or in connection with oral statements made to the press, potential investors or others. Statements regarding future events and developments and the Company’s future performance, as well as management’s expectations, beliefs, plans, estimates or projections relating to the future, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of these laws.

Management believes these forward-looking statements are reasonable; however, undue reliance should not be placed on any forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations.

Critical accounting policies and new accounting pronouncements

In the preparation of financial statements and in the determination of Company operating performance, the Company utilizes certain significant accounting policies. The Company’s significant accounting policies are included in the notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K. The Company’s critical accounting policies are those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. For a complete description of the Company’s critical accounting policies, please refer to pages 30 and 31 of the Company’s Form 10-K. Other than the change related to the reporting of discontinued operations, as discussed below, there were no significant changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. The discussion below details the Company’s critical accounting policies related to asset impairments and revenue and profit recognition of for-sale condominium activities as well as the impact of new accounting pronouncements relating to discontinued operations and revenue recognition.

The Company continually evaluates the recoverability of the carrying value of its real estate assets using the methodology summarized in its accounting policies (see note 1 to the consolidated financial statements). Under current accounting literature, the evaluation of the recoverability of the Company’s real estate assets requires the judgment of Company management in the determination of the future cash flows expected from the assets and the estimated holding period for the assets. The Company uses market capitalization rates to determine the estimated residual value of its operating real estate assets and, generally, takes a long-term view of the holding period of its assets unless specific facts and circumstances warrant shorter holding periods (expected sales, departures from certain geographic markets, etc.). The Company considers a real estate asset held for investment as impaired if the undiscounted, estimated

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

future cash flows of the asset (both the annual estimated cash flow from future operations and the estimated cash flow from the asset’s eventual sale) over its expected holding period are less than the asset’s net book value. For real estate assets held for sale, if any, the Company recognizes impairment losses if an asset’s net book value is in excess of its estimated fair value, less costs to sell. At June 30, 2014, management believed it had applied reasonable estimates and judgments in determining the proper classification of its real estate assets and determined that no impairment existed. See notes 1 and 8 to the consolidated financial statements for a further discussion of the Company’s methodologies for determining the fair value of the Company’s real estate assets. Should external or internal circumstances change requiring the need to shorten the holding periods or adjust the estimated future cash flows of certain of the Company’s assets, the Company could be required to record impairment charges in the future.

Under ASC Topic 360-20, “Plant Property and Equipment – Real Estate Sales,” the Company used the relative sales value method to allocate costs and recognize profits from condominium sales. Under the relative sales value method, estimates of aggregate project revenues and aggregate project costs were used to determine the allocation of project cost of sales and the resulting profit in each accounting period. In subsequent periods, project cost of sale allocations and profits were adjusted to reflect changes in the actual and estimated costs and revenues of each project.

In April 2014, Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08 (“ASU 2014-08”), “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of Entity” was issued. ASU 2014-08 amends ASC Topics 360 and 205 and changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under ASU 2014-08, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity shall be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. ASU 2014-08 also modifies the disclosure requirements for disposal groups reported as discontinued operations and for other significant disposal groups not reported as discontinued operations. Generally, the Company anticipates that fewer sales of apartment communities will be reported as discontinued operations in the Company’s financial statements, as a result of this standard. ASU 2014-08 is to be applied prospectively for periods on or after December 31, 2014 with early adoption permitted, but only for assets held for sale or sold that have not been reported in previously issued financial statements. The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2014-08, effective as of January 1, 2014. In 2014, the Company classified three apartment communities as held for sale and determined that all of the communities did not meet the criteria requiring discontinued operations reporting. As such, as described in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the results of operations of these communities through their sale dates as well as the gains on sales of these communities will be reported in continuing operations.

Results of operations

The following discussion of results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated statements of operations and the community operations/segment performance information included below.

The Company’s revenues and earnings from continuing operations are generated primarily from the operation of its apartment communities. For purposes of evaluating comparative operating performance, the Company categorizes its operating apartment communities based on the period each community reaches stabilized occupancy. The Company generally considers a community to have achieved stabilized occupancy on the earlier to occur of (1) attainment of 95% physical occupancy on the first day of any month or (2) one year after completion of construction.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company’s portfolio of operating apartment communities, excluding four communities held in unconsolidated entities, consisted of the following: (1) 48 communities that were completed and stabilized for all of the current and prior year, (2) one community and portions of two communities which reached stabilized occupancy in 2013, (3) one community acquired in 2013, (4) three communities and a portion of one community in lease-up in 2014, and (5) three communities classified as held for sale and sold (and not reported as discontinued operations under ASC Topic 360).

The Company has adopted an accounting policy related to communities in the lease-up stage whereby substantially all operating

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

expenses (including pre-opening marketing and management and leasing personnel expenses) are expensed as incurred. During the lease-up phase, the sum of interest expense on completed units and other operating expenses (including pre-opening marketing and management and leasing personnel expenses) will initially exceed rental revenues, resulting in a “lease-up deficit,” which continues until such time as rental revenues exceed such expenses. Lease-up deficits for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $448 and $428, respectively, and $949 and $1,254 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. The Company expects to incur lease-up deficits during the remainder of 2014 at lease-up communities, as the Company continues to deliver completed apartment units.

In order to evaluate the operating performance of its communities for the comparative years listed below, the Company has presented financial information which summarizes the rental and other revenues, property operating and maintenance expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization) and net operating income on a comparative basis for all of its operating communities and for its stabilized operating communities. Net operating income is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. The Company believes that the line on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations entitled “net income” is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to net operating income. Net operating income is reconciled to GAAP net income in the financial information accompanying the tables. The Company believes that net operating income is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for a REIT’s operating real estate because it provides a measure of the core operations, rather than factoring in depreciation and amortization, financing costs and general and administrative expenses. This measure is particularly useful, in the opinion of the Company, in evaluating the performance of geographic operations, operating segment groupings and individual properties. Additionally, the Company believes that net operating income, as defined, is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate investment community.

All operating communities

The operating performance and capital expenditures from continuing operations for all of the Company’s apartment communities and other commercial properties summarized by segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

In addition to those expenses which relate to property operations, the Company incurs annually recurring and periodically recurring expenditures relating to acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing asset, or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset, all of which are capitalized. Recurring capital expenditures are those that are generally expected to be incurred on an annual basis. Periodically recurring capital expenditures are those that generally occur less frequently than on an annual basis.

Fully stabilized communities

The Company defines fully stabilized communities as those which have reached stabilization prior to the beginning of the previous year, adjusted by communities classified as held for sale and sold. For the 2014 to 2013 comparison, fully stabilized communities are defined as those communities which reached stabilization prior to January 1, 2013. This portfolio consisted of 48 communities with 17,714 units, including 12 communities with 5,065 units (28.6%) located in Atlanta, Georgia, 15 communities with 4,725 units (26.7%) located in Dallas, Texas, 6 communities with 2,301 units (13.0%) located in the greater Washington D.C. metropolitan area, 4 communities with 2,111 units (11.9%) located in Tampa, Florida, 5 communities with 1,748 units (9.9%) located in Charlotte, North Carolina and 6 communities with 1,764 units (9.9%) located in other markets. The operating performance of these communities was as follows:

Total property capital expenditures per statements of cash flows	$	8,379	$	9,190	$	14,272	$	16,990

The Company uses same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures as cash flow measures. Same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures are important indicators of the costs incurred by the Company in maintaining same store communities. The corresponding GAAP measures include information with respect to the Company’s other operating segments consisting of newly stabilized communities, lease-up communities, acquired communities, held for sale and/or sold communities and commercial properties in addition to same store information. Therefore, the Company believes that its presentation of same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures is necessary to demonstrate same store replacement costs over time. The Company believes that the most directly comparable GAAP measure to same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures is the line on the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows entitled “total property capital expenditures.”

(3)	Average monthly rental rate is defined as the gross actual rental rates for leased units and the anticipated rental rates for unoccupied units, divided by total units.

(4)

Average economic occupancy is defined as gross potential rent less vacancy losses, model expenses and bad debt expenses divided by gross potential rent for the period, expressed as a percentage. Gross potential rent is defined as the sum of the gross actual rental rates for leased units and the anticipated rental rates for unoccupied units. The calculation of average economic occupancy does not include a deduction for net concessions and employee discounts. Average economic occupancy, including these amounts, would have been 95.7% and 95.0% for the three months and 95.3% and 94.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, net concessions were $199 and $237, respectively, and employee discounts were $154 and $147, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, net concessions were $408 and $516, respectively, and employee discounts were $307 and $301, respectively. Physical occupancy is defined as the number of units occupied divided by the total apartment units, expressed as a percentage.

(5)	Gross turnover represents the percentage of leases expiring during the period that are not renewed by the existing resident(s).

(6)

Percentage change is calculated using the respective new or renewed rental rate as of the date of a new lease, as compared with the previous rental rate on that same unit. Accordingly, these percentage changes may differ from the change in the average monthly rental rate per unit due to the timing of move-ins and/or the term of the respective leases.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

Comparison of three months ended June 30, 2014 to three months ended June 30, 2013

The Operating Partnership reported net income available to common unitholders of $46,915 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $26,634 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The Company reported net income available to common shareholders of $46,797 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $26,566 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. As discussed below, the increase in income between periods primarily reflects the gain on sale of an apartment community in 2014 and the improved operating performance of the Company’s operating communities, partially offset by gains on condominium sales in 2013.

Rental and other revenues from property operations increased $5,752 or 6.5% from 2013 to 2014 primarily due to increased revenues from the Company’s fully stabilized communities of $2,209 or 3.0%, increased revenues of $872 from newly stabilized communities, increased revenues of $2,387 from lease-up communities and increased revenues of $850 from the acquisition of a community in May 2013, partially offset by decreased revenues of $915 from held for sale and sold communities. The revenue increase from fully stabilized communities is discussed in more detail below. The revenue increase from newly stabilized communities reflects the stabilization of three communities in mid-2013. The revenue increase from lease-up communities reflects the lease-up of portions of four communities as apartment units were completed in 2013 and into 2014. The revenue decrease from held for sale and sold communities primarily reflects the sale of one community in early May 2014.

Property operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased $3,622 or 9.5% from 2013 to 2014 primarily due to increases from fully stabilized communities of $2,068 or 7.3%, increases of $91 from newly stabilized communities, increases of $1,094 from lease-up communities and increases of $356 from the acquisition of a community in May 2013, partially offset by decreased expenses of $75 from held for sale and sold communities. The increased expense from fully stabilized communities is discussed in more detail below. The expense increase from newly stabilized communities reflects the stabilization of three communities in mid-2013. The expense increase from lease-up communities reflects the operating expenses and initial personnel and marketing costs associated with the lease-up of portions of four development communities that began delivering apartment units in 2013 and into 2014. The expense decrease from held for sale and sold communities primarily reflects the sale of one community in early May 2014, mostly offset by $213 of increased property taxes between years due primarily to the reduction in tax abatements at the Company’s two New York communities.

In May 2014, the Company closed the sale of one apartment community. The Company recognized a gain in continuing operations of $36,092 from this sale. For the three months ended June 30, 2013, there were no sales of wholly owned apartment communities. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had two additional apartment communities held for sale. The Company currently expects to close the sale of these communities in the third quarter of 2014. There can be no assurance, however, that these sales will close. The Company may continue to be a seller of apartment communities in future periods depending on market conditions and consistent with its investment strategy of recycling investment capital to fund investment and development activities and to provide additional cash liquidity, as discussed in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below. The timing and amount of future gain recognition will fluctuate based on the size and individual age of apartment communities sold.

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, gains on condominium sales activities were $13,981 resulting from the sale of 30 condominiums units. The Company completed the sell-out of its remaining condominium units as of March 31, 2014.

Depreciation expense decreased $341 or 1.6% from 2013 to 2014, primarily due to decreased depreciation of $1,218 related to the cessation of depreciation on three communities classified as held for sale as of March 2014 and decreased depreciation of $381 from fully stabilized communities primarily due to the cessation of depreciation on certain fully depreciated short-lived assets at communities developed and acquired in recent years, somewhat offset by increased depreciation of $1,079 related to the completion of apartment units at four lease-up communities beginning in mid-2013 and into 2014 and $103 related to one community acquired in May 2013.

General and administrative expenses decreased $204 or 4.9%, from 2013 to 2014 primarily due to somewhat lower legal expenses associated with on-going legal matters and somewhat lower annual incentive plan expenses due to the timing of expense recognition between years.

Investment and development expenses increased $202 or 34.1%, from 2013 to 2014 primarily due to the reduction of capitalized development personnel and associated costs of $158 between years. This decrease was due to the reduction of development capitalization at three communities that were substantially completed in 2013, offset partially by increased capitalization at one development community that commenced in 2013. Additionally, development personnel and other costs increased by $44 between years. The Company expects to continue to complete portions of its existing development pipeline in 2014 and commence additional developments in 2014. The Company expects that the capitalization of development costs and expenses will decrease somewhat in 2014, which will result in increased net investment and development expenses in 2014.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

Other investment costs decreased $306 or 59.3% from 2013 to 2014. Other investment costs primarily include land carry expenses, such as property taxes and assessments. The decrease primarily reflects acquisition expenses of $175 in 2013 associated with the acquisition of an apartment community and land parcel as well as reduced land carry expenses related to land placed under development in 2013.

Interest expense decreased $609 or 5.5% from 2013 to 2014 primarily due to decreased interest costs of $992 resulting from the prepayment of $120,000, 4.88% of mortgage indebtedness, effective May 1, 2014, using available cash and net proceeds from an apartment community sale, offset somewhat by increased net interest costs due to decreased interest capitalization in 2014 as well as increased interest costs due to amounts allocated to discontinued operations in 2013. Decreased interest capitalization on the Company’s development projects of $337 primarily related to the substantial completion of two apartment communities in early 2013, partially offset by increased interest capitalization on two communities under construction in 2013 and into 2014. The Company expects interest expense for the full year of 2014 to be lower than in 2013 due to decreased interest costs resulting from the early retirement of certain mortgage indebtedness associated with apartment communities sold and expected to be sold in 2014, somewhat offset by increased net interest costs due to reduced interest capitalization as additional development projects are completed in 2014.

Other expenses of $502 in 2014 related to consulting expenses associated with a strategic initiative to upgrade the Company’s operating and financial software systems.

Annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures decreased $1,560 or 21.0% from 2013 to 2014. The decrease in periodically recurring capital expenditures of $1,520 primarily reflects reduced water intrusion remediation projects and structural improvements at five communities and fire sprinkler system replacement work at another community in 2013, partially offset by tenant improvements at an office property as well as structural improvements at one community in 2014. For the full year 2014, the Company expects periodically recurring capital expenditures to be lower than 2013 primarily due to reduced exterior remediation and structural improvement projects in 2014. The decrease in annually recurring capital expenditures of $40 primarily reflects the general timing of expenditures between periods. For the full year 2014, the Company expects annually recurring capital expenditures to be consistent with to modestly higher than 2013 primarily due to the timing of normalized capital expenditures between years.

Fully stabilized communities

Rental and other revenues increased $2,209 or 3.0% from 2013 to 2014. This increase primarily resulted from a 2.4% increase in the average monthly rental rate per apartment unit between periods. The increase in average rental rates resulted in a revenue increase of approximately $1,700 between periods. Average economic occupancy increased from 95.5% in 2013 to 96.2% in 2014. The change in occupancy rates between periods resulted in lower vacancy losses of $389 in 2014. The remaining increase in rental and other property revenues of $120 was primarily due to somewhat higher utility reimbursements. Average rental rate increases and higher occupancy rates were primarily due to increasing rental demand resulting from a gradually improving economy, favorable demographics and favorable market fundamentals. See the “Outlook” section below for an additional discussion of revenue trends for 2014.

Property operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased $2,068 or 7.3% from 2013 to 2014. This increase was primarily due to increased property tax expenses of $1,020 or 9.3% and increased repair and maintenance expenses of $1,273 or 30.1%. The increase in property tax expenses primarily reflects increased expense accruals in 2014 due to higher expected real estate valuations by tax authorities in most of the Company’s markets. Repair and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to higher exterior painting expenses of $997 between years. See the “Outlook” section below for a discussion of expense trends for 2014.

Comparison of six months ended June 30, 2014 to six months ended June 30, 2013

The Operating Partnership reported net income available to common unitholders of $60,262 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $46,105 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The Company reported net income available to common shareholders of $60,111 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $45,985 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. As discussed below, the additional income between periods primarily reflects a gain on the sale of an apartment community in 2014, increased net operating income from fully stabilized communities and increased income from lease-up and acquisition communities, partially offset by gains on condominium sales in 2013.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

Rental and other revenues from property operations increased $12,901 or 7.4% from 2013 to 2014 primarily due to increased revenues from the Company’s fully stabilized communities of $3,970 or 2.7%, increased revenues of $3,006 or 53.4% from newly stabilized communities, increased revenues of $4,242 from lease-up communities and increased revenues of $2,060 from the acquisition of apartment communities in May 2013, partially offset by decreased revenues of $648 from held for sale and sold communities. The revenue increase from fully stabilized communities is discussed in more detail below. The revenue increase from newly stabilized communities reflects the stabilization of three communities in mid-2013. The revenue increase from lease-up communities reflects the lease-up of portions of three communities as apartment units were completed in 2013. The revenue decrease from held for sale and sold communities primarily reflects the sale of one community in early May 2014.

Property operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased $6,934 or 9.2% from 2013 to 2014 primarily due to increases from fully stabilized communities of $3,091 or 5.5%, increases of $227 or 7.5% from newly stabilized communities, increases of $2,243 from lease-up communities, increases of $812 from the acquisition of apartment communities in May 2013 and increases of $547 from held for sale and sold communities. The increased expense from fully stabilized communities is discussed in more detail below. The expense increase from newly stabilized communities reflects the stabilization of three communities in mid-2013. The expense increase from lease-up communities reflects the operating expenses and initial personnel and marketing costs associated with the lease-up of portions of four development communities that began delivering apartment units in 2013 and into 2014. The expense increase from held for sale and sold communities was primarily due to increased property taxes of $442 between years due primarily to the reduction in tax abatements at the Company’s New York communities.

In May 2014, the Company closed the sale of one apartment community. The company recognized a gain in continuing operations of $36,092 from this sale. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, there were no sales of wholly owned apartment communities. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had two additional apartment communities held for sale. The Company currently expects to close the sale of these communities in the third quarter of 2014. There can be no assurance, however, that these sales will close. The Company may continue to be a seller of apartment communities in future periods depending on market conditions and consistent with its investment strategy of recycling investment capital to fund investment and development activities and to provide additional cash liquidity, as discussed in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below. The timing and amount of future gain recognition will fluctuate based on the size and individual age of apartment communities sold.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, gains on condominium sales activities were $810 and $22,175, respectively. The decrease in condominium gains between periods primarily reflects reduced closings from 50 units in 2013 to one unit in 2014. The condominium unit sale in 2014 represented the final condominium unit at the Company’s condominium community in Atlanta, Georgia. The Company has no condominium units remaining for sale as of June 30, 2014.

Depreciation expense increased $482 or 1.1% from 2013 to 2014, primarily due to increased depreciation of $2,030 related to the completion of apartment units at four lease-up communities beginning in mid-2013 and into 2014 and $438 related to the one community acquired in May 2013, somewhat offset by decreased depreciation of $1,192 related to the cessation of depreciation on three communities classified as held for sale as of March 2014 and decreased depreciation at fully stabilized communities of $940 due to the cessation of deprecation on certain fully depreciated short-lived assets at certain communities developed and acquired in recent years.

General and administrative expenses decreased $321, or 3.8%, from 2013 to 2014 primarily due to decreased legal expenses associated with on-going legal matters, due to somewhat lower annual incentive plan expenses due to the timing of expense recognition between years and due to the general timing of overall overhead expenses between years.

Investment and development expenses increased $524 or 48.5% from 2013 to 2014. In 2014, the capitalization of development personnel to development projects decreased by $425 due to the reduction of development capitalization at three development communities that were substantially completed in 2013, offset by increased capitalization at one development communities that began in 2013. Additionally, development personnel and other costs increased by $99. The Company expects to continue to complete portions of its existing development pipeline and commence additional developments in 2014. The Company expects that the capitalization of development costs and expenses will decrease for 2014, which will result in increased net investment and development expenses in 2014.

Other investment costs decreased $338 or 41.2% from 2013 to 2014. Other investment costs primarily include land carry expenses, such as property taxes and assessments. Other investment costs in 2013 included $175 of acquisition costs associated with the acquisition of an apartment community and a development land parcel as well as reduced land carry expenses related to land placed under development in 2013.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

Interest expense decreased $417 or 1.9% from 2013 to 2014 primarily due to decreased interest costs of $992 resulting from the prepayment of $120,000, 4.88% mortgage indebtedness, effective May 1, 2014, using available cash and net proceeds from an apartment community sale, somewhat offset by increased net interest costs due to decreased interest capitalization in 2014 as well as increased interest costs due to amounts allocated to discontinued operations in 2013. Decreased interest capitalization on the Company’s development projects of $495 primarily related to the substantial completion of two apartment communities in early 2013, partially offset by increased capitalization on three communities under construction in 2013 and into 2014. The Company expects interest expense for the full year of 2014 to be somewhat lower than in 2013 due to decreased interest costs resulting from the early retirement of certain mortgage indebtedness associated with apartment communities sold and expected to be sold in 2014, somewhat offset by increased net interest costs due to reduced interest capitalization as development projects are completed in 2014.

Other expenses of $1,409 in 2014 included expenses of approximately $559 related to the continuation of a strategic initiative to upgrade the Company’s operating and financial software systems and estimated casualty losses of $750 related to extreme weather conditions in many of the Company’s markets, and due to fire damage at one of the Company’s Atlanta, Georgia communities.

Annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures decreased $4,736 or 30.4% from 2013 to 2014. The decrease in periodically recurring capital expenditures of $3,685 primarily reflects reduced water intrusion remediation projects and structural improvements at five communities and fire sprinkler system replacement work at another community in 2013, partially offset by tenant improvements at an office property as well as siding and structural improvements at two communities in 2014. For the full year 2014, the Company expects periodically recurring capital expenditures to be lower than 2013 primarily due to reduced exterior remediation and structural improvement projects in 2014. The decrease in annually recurring capital expenditures of $1,051 primarily reflects roofing expenditures at one community in 2013. For the full year 2014, the Company expects annually recurring capital expenditures to be consistent with to modestly higher than 2013 primarily due to the timing of normalized capital expenditures between years.

Fully stabilized communities

Rental and other revenues increased $3,970 or 2.7% from 2013 to 2014. This increase primarily resulted from a 2.4% increase in the average monthly rental rate per apartment unit between periods. The increase in average rental rates resulted in a revenue increase of approximately $3,372 between periods. Average economic occupancy increased from 95.5% in 2013 to 95.8% in 2014. The occupancy increase between periods resulted in lower vacancy losses of $351 in 2013. The remaining increase in rental and other property revenues of $247 was primarily due to somewhat higher utility reimbursements. Average rental rate increases and higher occupancy rates were primarily due to increasing rental demand resulting from a gradually improving economy, favorable demographics and a moderate, but increasing, supply of new apartment communities. See the “Outlook” section below for an additional discussion of trends for 2014.

Property operating and maintenance expenses (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased $3,091 or 5.5% from 2013 to 2014. This increase was primarily due to increased property tax expenses of $1,874 or 8.5% and increased repair and maintenance expenses of $1,093 or 13.8%. The increase in property tax expenses primarily reflects increased expense accruals in 2014 due to higher real estate valuations by tax authorities in most of the Company’s markets. Repair and maintenance expenses increased primarily due to higher exterior painting expenses of $993 between years. See the “Outlook” section below for a discussion of expense trends for 2014.

Asset disposals and discontinued operations

Assets held for sale subsequent to January 1, 2014

In the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company classified three apartment communities, containing 645 units, as held for sale. In May 2014, one of these apartment communities located in Houston, Texas, containing 308 units, was sold for gross proceeds of $71,750. The Company recognized a gain of $36,092 on the sale of this community. At June 30, 2014, assets held for sale included two communities, containing 337 units, located in New York, New York. These assets classified as held for sale are reported separately on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at $107,229, which represents the lower of their depreciated cost or fair value less costs to sell. These assets are currently expected to be sold in the third quarter of 2014. There can be no assurance, however, that these sales will close. This disposition activity is part of the Company’s on-going investment strategy of recycling investment capital to fund investment and development of apartment communities.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, as amended by ASU 2014-08, the Company only reports asset disposals as discontinued operations if the disposals represent a strategic shift that have, or will have, a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results. The Company believes these actual and planned asset disposals do not meet that criteria. As a result, the results of operations for these communities through the earlier of their sale dates or June 30, 2014 and the resulting gains on sales of these communities are reported in continuing operations for all periods presented.

The revenues, expenses, net income and net income attributable to the Company, including gains on sales of real estate assets related to these communities, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:


	Three months ended June 30,						Six months ended June 30,

Assets held for sale/sold prior to January 1, 2014

In periods prior to January 1, 2014, under ASC Topic 360, the operating results of real estate assets designated as held for sale and sold were reported in discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of operations for all periods presented. Additionally, all gains and losses on the sale of these assets were included in discontinued operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, income from discontinued operations included the results of operations of one apartment community sold in October 2013, containing 342 units, was as follows:


	Three months ended June 30, 2013		Six months ended June 30, 2013
Revenues
Rental	$	1,089	$	2,159
Other property revenues		115		216

Depreciation		175		352
Interest		88		178

Total expenses		761		1,499

Income from discontinued property operations	$	443	$	876

As discussed under “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below, the Company has sold and may continue to sell real estate assets in future periods as part of its overall investment, disposition and acquisition strategy depending upon market conditions. As such, the Company may continue to have additional assets classified as held for sale; however, the timing and amount of future asset sales will fluctuate based on the size and individual age of the apartment communities sold and, as a result, the future impact on aggregate revenues, expenses and gain recognition will vary from year to year.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

Outlook

The outlook and assumptions presented below are forward-looking and are based on the Company’s future view of apartment market and general economic conditions, as well as other risks outlined above under the caption “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” There can be no assurance that the Company’s actual results will not differ materially from the outlook and assumptions set forth below. The Company assumes no obligation to update this outlook in the future.

The Company’s outlook for full year of 2014 is based on the expectation that economic and employment conditions will continue to gradually improve. However, there continues to be significant risk and uncertainty in the economy and the unemployment rate continues to be higher than normal. If the economic recovery was to stall or U.S. economic conditions were to worsen, the Company’s operating results would be adversely affected. Furthermore, a moderate supply of new apartment units over the past several years, coupled with improving multi-family housing demand in the Company’s markets, has generally supported improved operating fundamentals in the multi-family rental markets. As such, development of new multi-family rental units has continued to increase, which has increased the competitive supply of new rental units in the markets in which the Company operates. This new supply contributed to a moderation in the rate of rental income and NOI growth in 2013 and this trend has and is expected to continue into 2014.

Rental and other revenues from fully stabilized communities are expected to increase modestly for 2014, compared to 2013, driven primarily by new and renewed leases being completed at modestly higher market rental rates, as the Company expects to generally maintain occupancy levels relatively consistent with those in 2013. The rate of revenue growth is expected to continue to moderate in 2014, compared to 2013, largely attributable to the new supply of competitive rental apartments. Operating expenses of fully stabilized communities are expected to increase for 2014. On a year-over-year basis, the Company expects property tax, personnel and maintenance expenses (primarily exterior paint) to be the largest contributors to operating expense growth. As a result, management expects fully stabilized community net operating income to increase modestly for 2014. Further, management expects net operating income from newly stabilized communities to increase in 2014 as these communities reached stabilized occupancy in mid-2013. Management also expects that net operating income from lease-up communities will increase moderately in 2014. Additionally, net operating income is expected to increase for the full year of 2014 from one apartment community acquired in May 2013.

Management expects general and administrative, property management and investment and development expenses, net of amounts capitalized to development projects, to increase modestly for 2014, compared to 2013. Capitalized development personnel and costs are expected to decrease modestly in 2014 as portions of the Company’s development communities were completed and are expected to be completed in mid to late 2014. These decreases are expected to be partially offset by capitalization to new development starts expected to commence in the second half of 2014. Additionally, other expenses are expected to include costs associated with information technology system upgrades that are expected to be completed in 2014.

Management expects interest expense for 2014 to be somewhat lower than in 2013 due primarily to the prepayment and expected prepayment of certain mortgage indebtedness in conjunction with actual and expected asset sales, offset somewhat by reduced interest capitalization to development communities as communities are expected to be completed in 2014.

In May 2014, the Company closed the sale of one apartment community, containing 308 units. Also in 2014, the Company expects to close the sale of two additional apartment communities, containing 337 units. The net proceeds from these sales were and are expected to be used to prepay certain secured mortgage indebtedness, including indebtedness secured by two of the communities, to pay special dividends to common shareholders that may be required to distribute taxable earnings, after various tax planning strategies have been employed, for opportunistic share repurchases, to fund new investment opportunities and for general corporate purposes. Sales of assets and any payment of special dividends or prepayment of indebtedness could be dilutive to the Company’s earnings outlook depending on the timing and amount of sales and the use and timing of net proceeds received. The prepayment of secured debt has and is expected to result in losses on extinguishment of indebtedness relating to prepayment penalties and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs. There can be no assurance that future sales will close or that the expected use of proceeds will not change.

The Company currently expects to utilize available cash, retained 2014 operating cash flow, available borrowing capacity under its unsecured bank credit facilities, or other indebtedness and, from time to time, asset sales and net proceeds from its at-the-market common equity program to fund future estimated construction expenditures. See the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below where discussed further. The Company’s 2014 outlook does not currently anticipate any share issuances under the Company’s at-the-market equity program in 2014. Future sales under the at-the-market common equity program will depend upon a variety of factors, including, among others, the volume of investment activities, market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock relative to other sources of capital and the Company’s liquidity position.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

Liquidity and capital resources

The discussion in this Liquidity and capital resources section is the same for the Company and the Operating Partnership, except that all indebtedness described herein has been incurred by the Operating Partnership.

The Company’s net cash provided by operating activities increased from $74,355 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $77,722 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 primarily due to increased property net operating income in 2014 from fully stabilized, newly stabilized, lease-up and acquisition communities. For the full year 2014, the Company expects cash flows from operating activities to increase moderately resulting from expected increases from fully stabilized, newly stabilized and lease-up communities as discussed above, offset somewhat by decreases from sold communities.

Net cash flows from investing activities changed from net cash used in investing activities of $88,634 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to net cash provided by investing activities of $20,086 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 primarily due to increased proceeds from the sale of an apartment community in 2014 as well as reduced construction, development and acquisition expenditures between periods. Reduced construction and development expenditures reflect the completion of certain development projects in late 2013 and into 2014. For the full year 2014, the Company expects to continue to incur development expenditures on its existing development projects. The Company also expects to generate proceeds from the sale of certain additional apartment communities in 2014 as part of its overall investment, disposition and acquisition strategy depending on market conditions.

Net cash flows used in financing activities increased from $30,006 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $163,437 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 primarily due to the prepayment of $120,000 of secured mortgage indebtedness and increased dividends to shareholders between years. For the full year 2014, based on its current outlook, the Company expects minimal to no new net debt issuances or equity issuances under its ATM program as the Company currently expects to use available cash, cash flow from operations and asset sale proceeds to fund current development expenditures. As discussed above, the Company has used and may continue to use the net proceeds from the expected sales of apartment communities, in combination with a portion of cash on hand and, if necessary, line of credit borrowings, to prepay secured mortgage indebtedness in 2014, to pay special dividends to common shareholders that may be required to distribute taxable earnings, after various tax planning strategies have been employed, for opportunistic share repurchases, to fund new investment opportunities and for general corporate purposes.

Since 1993, the Company has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Management currently intends to continue operating the Company as a REIT in 2013. As a REIT, the Company is subject to a number of organizational and operating requirements, including a requirement to distribute 90% of its adjusted taxable income to its shareholders. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income taxes on its taxable income it distributes to its shareholders.

Generally, the Company’s objective is to meet its short-term liquidity requirement of funding the payment of its current level of quarterly preferred and common stock dividends to shareholders through its net cash flows provided by operating activities, less its annually recurring and periodically recurring property and corporate capital expenditures. These operating capital expenditures are the capital expenditures necessary to maintain the earnings capacity of the Company’s operating assets over time. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company’s net cash flow from operations, reduced by annual operating capital expenditures, was sufficient to fully fund the Company’s dividend payments to common and preferred shareholders.

In May 2014, the Company’s board of directors increased the quarterly dividend rate from $0.36 to $0.40 per common share. The Company currently expects to maintain the quarterly dividend payment rate to common shareholders of $0.40 per share for the remainder of 2014. However, future dividend payments by the Company will be paid at the discretion of the board of directors and will depend on the actual funds from operations of the Company, actual gains on sales of real estate assets, if any, the Company’s financial condition and capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and other factors that the board of directors deems relevant. The Company’s board of directors reviews the dividend quarterly, and there can be no assurance that the current dividend level will be maintained.

To the extent the Company continues to pay dividends at this dividend rate, the Company expects to use net cash flows from operations reduced by annual operating capital expenditures to fund the dividend payments to common and preferred shareholders. The Company may also use cash and cash equivalents and, if its net cash flows from operations are not sufficient to meet its anticipated dividend payment rate, line of credit borrowings to fund dividend payments. The Company’s dividends can be paid as a combination of cash and stock in order to satisfy the annual distribution requirements applicable to REITs. To the extent that

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

management considers it advisable to distribute gains from any future asset sales to shareholders in the form of a special dividend, the Company may pay a portion of such dividend in the form of stock to preserve liquidity. The Company’s net cash flow from operations continues to be sufficient to meet the dividend requirements necessary to maintain its REIT status.

The Company generally expects to utilize available net cash flow from operations, available cash and cash equivalents and available capacity under its revolving lines of credit to fund its short-term liquidity requirements, including capital expenditures, dividends and distributions on its common and preferred equity and its debt service requirements. The Company generally expects to fund its long-term liquidity requirements, including maturities of long-term debt and acquisition and development activities, through long-term unsecured and secured borrowings, possibly through the sale of selected operating communities, through net proceeds from the Company’s at-the-market common equity program and possibly through equity or leveraged joint venture arrangements. As it has done in the past, the Company may also use joint venture arrangements in future periods to reduce its market concentrations in certain markets, build critical mass in other markets and to reduce its exposure to certain risks of its future development activities.

As previously discussed, the Company has used the proceeds from the sale of selected operating communities and condominium homes as one means of funding its development and acquisition activities. Total net sales proceeds from operating community and condominium sales for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and for the full year of 2013 were $73,264 and $116,684, respectively. Proceeds from these asset sales were used to increase available cash and cash equivalent balances, to fund development and acquisition activities and to prepay certain mortgage indebtedness. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had two apartment communities held for sale. The Company currently expects to close the sale of these communities in the third quarter of 2014. The expected net proceeds from these sales are expected to be used to prepay certain mortgage indebtedness secured by these assets and may be used pay any special dividends that may be required to distribute the Company’s taxable earnings, after various tax planning strategies have been employed, for opportunistic share repurchases, to fund new investment opportunities, and for general corporate purposes. These sales of assets and any payment of special dividends or prepayment of indebtedness could be dilutive to the Company’s 2014 earnings depending on the timing and amount of sales and the use and timing of net proceeds received. The prepayment of indebtedness has and is expected to result in losses on extinguishment of indebtedness relating to prepayment penalties and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs. There can be no assurance that future sales will close or that the use of the proceeds may not change.

In May 2012, the Company adopted an at-the-market common equity sales program for the sale of up to 4,000 shares of common stock. At June 30, 2014, the Company had 4,000 shares remaining for issuance under the program. The Company has used previous programs and may use this program, from time to time, as an additional source of capital and liquidity and to maintain the strength of its balance sheet. Sales under the program will be dependent on a variety of factors, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock relative to other sources of capital and the Company’s liquidity position.

As of June 30, 2014, the Company’s aggregate pipeline of four apartment communities under development and lease-up totaled approximately $230,800, of which approximately $125,100 remained to be incurred by the Company. The Company may also begin additional developments in 2014 and in future periods. The Company currently expects to utilize available cash, retained cash flow from operations, available borrowing capacity under its unsecured bank credit facilities, or other indebtedness and, from time to time, asset sales and net proceeds from its at-the-market common equity program to fund future estimated construction expenditures.

As of July 25, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $9,300. Additionally, the Company had $6,300 of outstanding borrowings, and $247 of outstanding letters of credit under its $330,000 combined unsecured revolving line of credit facilities. The terms, conditions and restrictive covenants associated with the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit facilities, term loan and senior unsecured notes are summarized in note 4 to the consolidated financial statements. Management believes the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the Company’s unsecured revolving lines of credit, term loan and senior unsecured notes at June 30, 2014.

Management believes it will have adequate available cash and capacity under its unsecured revolving lines of credit to execute its 2014 business plan and meet its short-term liquidity requirements. The Company also currently believes that it will continue to have access to additional equity capital, unsecured debt financing and secured debt financing through loan programs sponsored by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and other secured lenders. In the past, the Company has utilized loan programs sponsored by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac as a key source of capital to finance its growth and its operations. Should these entities discontinue providing liquidity to the multi-family sector, it could significantly reduce the Company’s access to debt capital and/or increase borrowing costs and could adversely affect the development of multi-family homes. In addition, the amount and timing of any new debt financings may be limited by restrictive covenants under the Company’s current unsecured debt arrangements, such as coverage ratios and limitations on aggregate secured debt as a percentage of total assets, as defined. There can be no assurances that secured financing will continue to be available through U.S. government sponsored programs and other secured lenders or that the Company’s access to additional debt financings will not be limited by its financial covenants.

Stock and debt repurchase programs

In May 2012, the Company adopted an ATM common equity sales program for the sale of up to 4,000 shares of common stock. At June 30, 2014, the Company had 4,000 shares remaining for issuance under the program. There were no issuances for the three or six months ended June 30, 2014 or 2013 under this plan. The Company has used and expects to use these programs, from time to time, as an additional source of capital and liquidity and to maintain the strength of its balance sheet.

In December 2012, the Company’s board of directors adopted a stock and unsecured note repurchase program under which the Company and the Operating Partnership may repurchase up to $200,000 of common and preferred stock and unsecured notes through December 31, 2014. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, there were no repurchases under this program. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company repurchased 550 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of $24,800 and at an average gross price per share of $45.08.

Capitalization of fixed assets and community improvements

The Company has a policy of capitalizing those expenditures relating to the acquisition of new assets and the development and construction of new apartment communities. In addition, the Company capitalizes expenditures that enhance the value of existing assets and expenditures that substantially extend the life of existing assets. All other expenditures necessary to maintain a community in ordinary operating condition are expensed as incurred.

The Company capitalizes interest, real estate taxes, and certain internal personnel and associated costs related to apartment communities under development and construction. The incremental personnel and associated costs are capitalized to the projects under development and construction based upon the effort associated with such projects. The Company treats each unit in an apartment community separately for cost accumulation, capitalization and expense recognition purposes. Prior to the commencement of leasing activities, interest and other construction costs are capitalized and included in construction in progress. The Company ceases the capitalization of such costs as the residential units in a community become substantially complete and available for occupancy. This practice results in a proration of these costs between amounts that are capitalized and expensed as the residential units in a development community become available for occupancy. In addition, prior to the completion of units, the Company expenses, as incurred, substantially all operating expenses (including pre-opening marketing expenses) of such communities.

Acquisition of assets and community development and other capitalized expenditures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 are summarized as follows:

(5)	Represents unit status as of July 25, 2014.

(6)	The communities reached stabilized occupancy in early third quarter 2014.

Inflation

Substantially all of the leases at the Company’s communities allow, at the time of renewal, for adjustments in the rent payable thereunder, and thus may enable the Company to seek increases in rents. The substantial majority of these leases are for one year or less and the remaining leases are for up to two years. At the expiration of a lease term, the Company’s lease agreements generally provide that the term will be extended unless either the Company or the lessee gives at least sixty (60) days written notice of termination. In addition, the Company’s policy generally permits the early termination of a lease by a lessee upon thirty (30) days written notice to the Company and the payment of an amount equal to two month’s rent as compensation for early termination. The short-term nature of these leases generally serves to offset the risk to the Company that the adverse effect of inflation may have on the Company’s general, administrative and operating expenses.

Funds from operations

The Company uses the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition of funds from operations (“FFO”). FFO is defined by NAREIT as net income available to common shareholders determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from extraordinary items and sales of depreciable property, plus depreciation of real estate assets, and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures all determined on a consistent basis in accordance with GAAP. FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. FFO presented herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented by other real estate companies because not all real estate companies use the same definition. The Company’s FFO is comparable to the FFO of real estate companies that use the current NAREIT definition.

The Company also uses FFO as an operating measure. Accounting for real estate assets using historical cost accounting under GAAP assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. NAREIT stated in its April 2002 White Paper on Funds from Operations “since real estate asset values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves.” As a result, the concept of FFO was created by NAREIT for the REIT industry to provide an alternate measure. Since the Company agrees with the concept of FFO and appreciates the reasons surrounding its creation, management believes that FFO is an important supplemental measure of operating performance. In addition, since most equity REITs provide FFO information to the investment community, the Company believes FFO is a useful supplemental measure for comparing the Company’s results to those of other equity REITs. The Company believes that the line on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations entitled “net income available to common shareholders” is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Unaudited, in thousands, except per share or unit and apartment unit data)

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income available to common shareholders (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance. While management believes that FFO is an important supplemental non-GAAP financial measure, management believes it is also important to stress that FFO should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Company’s liquidity. Further, FFO is not necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company’s needs or ability to service indebtedness or make distributions.

A reconciliation of net income available to common shareholders to FFO available to common shareholders and unitholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was as follows.


	Three months ended June 30,					Six months ended June 30,
	2014			2013		2014			2013
Net income available to common shareholders	$	46,797		$	26,566	$	60,111		$	45,985

(1)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, FFO included other expenses of approximately $502 and $659 associated with the continuation of an initiative to upgrade enterprise software systems. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, FFO also included $750 related to casualty losses from the extreme winter weather conditions in 2014 and fire damage at one of the Company’s Atlanta, Georgia communities.

(2)

Diluted weighted average shares and units included the impact of dilutive securities totaling 112 and 194 for the three months and 115 and 198 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Additionally, basic and diluted weighted average shares and units included the impact of non-vested shares and units totaling 130 and 127 for the three months and 121 and 119 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, for the computation of funds from operations per share. Such non-vested shares and units are considered in the income per share computations under generally accepted accounting principles using the “two-class method.”

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company’s primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. At June 30, 2014, the Company had no outstanding variable rate debt tied to LIBOR under its aggregate $330,000 line of credit arrangements. At June 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding variable rate debt of $300,000 under a term loan facility (“Term Loan”) at interest rates tied to LIBOR (see note 4 to the consolidated financial statements). In addition, the Company had outstanding three interest rate swap arrangements with substantially similar terms and conditions with notional amounts totaling $230,000 and a fourth swap arrangement with substantially similar terms and conditions and a notional amount of $70,000. These interest rate swap arrangements (as summarized in the table below) serve as cash flow hedges for amounts outstanding under the Term Loan and provide an effective blended interest rate for the corresponding amount of Term Loan borrowings of 3.24% at June 30, 2014. In addition, the Company has interest rate risk associated with fixed rate debt at maturity. The discussion in this section is the same for the Company and the Operating Partnership, except that all indebtedness described herein has been incurred by the Operating Partnership or one of its subsidiaries.

Management has and will continue to manage interest rate risk as follows:

•

maintain a conservative ratio of fixed rate, long-term debt to total debt such that variable rate exposure is kept at an acceptable level;

•

fix certain long-term variable rate debt through the use of interest rate swaps or interest rate caps with appropriately matching maturities;

•

use derivative financial instruments where appropriate to fix rates on anticipated debt transactions; and

•

take advantage of favorable market conditions for long-term debt and/or equity.

Management uses various financial models and advisors to achieve these objectives.

The table below provides information, including the fair value measured in accordance with ASC Topic 815, about the Company’s derivative financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. For the Company’s interest rate swap arrangements, the table presents notional amounts and weighted average interest rates by (expected) contractual maturity dates. Notional amounts are used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract.


Interest Rate Derivatives	Hedged Debt Instrument		Notional Amount			Average Fixed Pay Rate			Average Receive Rate	Termination Date		Fair Value
													Asset (Liab.	)
Interest rate swaps - variable to fixed (three) (1)		Term loan borrowings	$	230,000	(1)		1.55	%	one-month LIBOR		1/19/2018	$	(3,870	)
Interest rate swaps - variable to fixed (one) (2)		Term loan borrowings	$	70,000	(2)		1.50	%	one-month LIBOR		1/19/2018	$	(1,045	)

												$	(4,915	)

(1)	Cash payments under the arrangements began in January 2012 based on aggregate notional amounts of $100,000. Notional amounts increased to an aggregate of $230,000 in June 2012.

(2)	Cash payments under this arrangement began in July 2012.

As more fully described in note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the interest rate swap arrangement is carried on the consolidated balance sheet at the fair value shown above in accordance with ASC Topic 815. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, there were no material changes in outstanding fixed or variable rate debt arrangements. The Company has no floating rate LIBOR-based borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2014, excluding the variable rate bank term loan debt effectively swapped to fixed rates under the derivative financial instruments. As such, fluctuations in such loans would have no effect on the Company’s interest costs.
