Retail Portfolio
Notes to Combined Statement of Revenues and Certain Operating Expenses

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying combined statement of revenues and certain operating expenses includes the operations of a portfolio of 11 retail centers located throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern United States (the “Retail Portfolio”), which Armada Hoffler Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) acquired on January 14, 2016.

The accompanying combined statement of revenues and certain operating expenses has been prepared for the purpose of complying with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Accordingly, the statement is not representative of the actual operations for the period presented, as revenues and certain operating expenses, which may not be directly attributable to the revenues and expenses expected to be incurred in the future operations of the Retail Portfolio, have been excluded. Such items include depreciation, amortization, interest expense, interest income and amortization of above- and below-market leases. The Company is not aware of any material factors during the year ended December 31, 2015 that would cause the reported financial information not to be indicative of future operating results.

The accompanying combined statement of revenues and certain operating expenses of the Retail Portfolio has been presented on a combined basis as the 11 retail centers were under common management and ownership during the period presented.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

The Retail Portfolio recognizes rental revenue from tenants on a straight-line basis over the lease term when collectability is reasonably assured and the tenant has taken possession or controls the physical use of the leased asset.

Tenant recoveries related to reimbursement of real estate taxes, insurance, repairs and maintenance, and other operating expenses are recognized as revenue in the period the applicable expenses are incurred. Tenant recoveries and reimbursable expenses are recognized and presented gross, as the Retail Portfolio is generally the primary obligor with respect to purchasing goods and services from third-party suppliers, has discretion in selecting the supplier and bears the associated credit risk.

Use of Estimates

Management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting and disclosure of revenues and certain expenses during the reporting period to present the combined statement of revenues and certain operating expenses in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
