PHILLIPS EDISON GROCERY CENTER REIT I, INC.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of and For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and For the Year Ended December 31, 2016

On October 4, 2017, Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT I, Inc. (“PECO,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) acquired certain real estate assets and the third-party asset management business of its sponsor and external advisor, Phillips Edison Limited Partnership (“PELP”), in a stock and cash transaction (the “PELP Transaction”). Under the terms of the PELP Transaction, PELP received (i) approximately 39.4 million operating partnership units (“OP units”) in our operating partnership, Phillips Edison Grocery Center Operating Partnership I, L.P. (“PECO OP”), excluding the 5.1 million vested and unvested Class B units in PECO OP already outstanding, (ii) $25 million in cash, and (iii) the right to receive up to approximately 12.49 million OP units if certain milestones are achieved, in exchange for the contribution of PELP’s ownership interests in 76 shopping centers, its third-party asset management business, and its captive insurance company.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information sets forth:
 
The historical consolidated financial information as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, derived from our unaudited consolidated financial statements, and the historical consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2016, derived from our audited consolidated financial statements;
Pro forma adjustments to give effect to our acquisitions during 2016 and through September 30, 2017, and other investments, dispositions and significant debt activity on our consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, as if these transactions occurred on January 1, 2016;
The historical financial information of PELP as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, derived from PELP’s unaudited combined financial statements, and the historical combined statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2016, derived from PELP’s audited combined financial statements;
Pro forma adjustments to give effect to PELP’s acquisitions during 2016 and through September 30, 2017, and other investments, dispositions, and significant debt activity on PELP’s combined statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and for the year ended December 31, 2016, as if these transactions occurred on January 1, 2016;
Pro forma adjustments to give effect to our acquisition of PELP on our consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017, as if the acquisition closed on September 30, 2017; and
Pro forma adjustments to give effect to our acquisition of PELP on our consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and for the year ended December 31, 2016, as if the acquisition closed on January 1, 2016.
 
Certain assets and liabilities of PELP included in the historical combined financial information, consisting primarily of certain working capital, investment in real estate assets, and investments in subsidiaries were not acquired and have been so reflected in the pro forma adjustments. Also, intercompany activity between PELP and us has been eliminated in the pro forma adjustments.


These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared for informational purposes only and are based on assumptions and estimates considered appropriate by our management; however, they are not necessarily indicative of what our consolidated financial condition or results of operations actually would have been assuming the PELP Transaction had been consummated as of the dates previously indicated, nor do they purport to represent the consolidated financial position or results of operations for future periods. These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements do not include the impact of any synergies that may be achieved through the PELP Transaction nor any strategies that management may consider in order to continue to efficiently manage our operations. This pro forma condensed consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with:
 
Our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter then ended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 9, 2017;
Our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended, filed with the SEC on March 9, 2017;
PELP’s unaudited combined financial statements and the related notes thereto as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 included herein; and





PELP’s audited combined financial statements and the related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016 included herein.
 
The PELP Transaction will be accounted for as a business combination under Accounting Standards Codification 805 - Business Combinations. The total purchase price will be allocated to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values. The allocations of the purchase prices reflected in these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have not been finalized and are based upon preliminary estimates of these fair values, which is the best available information at the current time. A final determination of the fair values of the assets and liabilities will be based on the actual valuations of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities that exist as of the dates of completion of the acquisitions. Consequently, amounts preliminarily allocated to identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities could change significantly from those used in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements and could result in a material change in depreciation and amortization of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities.
 
The completion of the valuations, the impact of ongoing integration activities, and other changes in tangible and intangible assets and liabilities that occur could cause material differences in the information presented.

PHILLIPS EDISON GROCERY CENTER REIT I, INC.
NOTES AND MANAGEMENT’S ASSUMPTIONS TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRO FORMA PRESENTATION
 
Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT I, Inc. (“PECO,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that invests primarily in well-occupied, grocery-anchored, neighborhood and community shopping centers that have a mix of creditworthy national and regional retailers that sell necessity-based goods and services in diversified markets throughout the United States.

On October 4, 2017, we completed our acquisition of certain real estate assets, the third party asset management business, and the captive insurance company of our sponsor and external advisor, Phillips Edison Limited Partnership (“PELP”) in a stock and cash transaction valued at approximately $930 million. Under the terms of the agreement, PELP received approximately 39.4 million operating partnership units (“OP units”) in our operating partnership, Phillips Edison Grocery Center Operating Partnership I, L.P. (“PECO OP”), excluding the 5.1 million OP units and Class B units of PECO OP already outstanding, and $25 million in cash in exchange for the contribution of PELP’s ownership interests in 76 shopping centers, its third party asset management business, and its captive insurance company.

NOTE 2 — ADJUSTMENTS TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS
 
(A)
Represents the historical financial condition as reflected in the combined financial statements of PELP as of September 30, 2017. 

(B)
Adjustments reflect the exclusion of certain PELP properties, investments in certain entities, and working capital, including cash, that were not acquired in the PELP Transaction.
 
(C)
Represents adjustments to record the acquisition of PELP by us based upon the purchase price of approximately $930 million, excluding a $43 million earn-out liability (see item H). Additionally, intercompany activity between PELP and us has been eliminated. The calculation of the purchase price to be allocated is as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The maximum payout is approximately 12.49 million OP units, or $137.4 million at an estimated value of $11.00 per share, and the liability will be adjusted quarterly through earnings. Additional adjustments include a $2.9 million increase in the value of Restricted Membership Units (“RMUs”), which are issued as part of a phantom equity compensation plan for employees, partially offset by a $5.1 million adjustment to remove our accrued expenses related to the PELP Transaction and a $0.2 million adjustment to remove PELP’s historical straight-line rent liability.

(1) 
Upon completion of the PELP Transaction, PELP’s debt, except for the mortgages assumed by us, was refinanced with new, long-term debt instruments under current market conditions. Therefore, similar assumptions were made in regards to these pro forma consolidated financial statements.
(1) 
As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the weighted-average interest rate on the new debt instruments was 2.8% and 3.0%, respectively.
Of the total pro forma mortgages and loans payable, we assumed that approximately $524.1 million of our unsecured debt was not fixed through derivative financial instruments, and as a result, we are subject to the potential impact of rising interest rates. The impact of a 0.125% increase in our projected interest rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and the year ended December 31, 2016, would result in approximately $1.7 million and $2.2 million of additional interest expense, respectively.

(V)
Reflects the (i) removal of historical expenses related to the PELP Transaction, (ii) elimination of intercompany acquisition expenses, and (iii) removal of distribution income to PELP from us and from other PELP investments that are not being acquired.

(W)
Reflects the adjustment to income attributable to noncontrolling interests related to the 39.4 million OP units issued to PELP as consideration for the transaction in addition to the 5.1 million OP units and Class B units previously issued.

(X)
Reflects the increase in weighted-average dilutive shares related to the issuance of 39.4 million OP units and vesting of the unvested Class B units, assuming the PELP Transaction closed on January 1, 2016.

Pro forma FFO is presented for informational purposes only, and is based on available information and assumptions that our management believes to be reasonable; however, it is not necessarily indicative of what our FFO actually would have been assuming the PELP Transaction had occurred as of the dates indicated.

Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values, instead, 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. To overcome this problem, we consider FFO an appropriate measure of operating performance of an equity REIT. We use the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition of FFO. NAREIT defines FFO as to be net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, and gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable real estate property (including deemed sales and settlements of pre-existing relationships), plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets and impairment charges, and after related adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures, and noncontrolling interests. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. 

FFO presented herein is not necessarily identical to FFO presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definitions. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP), as an indicator of our financial performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), as measures of our liquidity, nor is FFO necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of our needs. We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of our consolidated historical operating results, FFO should be examined in conjunction with net income as presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements.
