PART I— FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Financial Statements

 

We refer to (1) Highwoods Properties, Inc. as the “Company,” (2) Highwoods Realty Limited Partnership as the “Operating Partnership,” (3) the Company’s common stock as “Common Stock” and (4) the Operating Partnership’s common partnership interests as “Common Units.”

 

The information furnished in the accompanying balance sheets, statements of income, statements of partners’ capital and statements of cash flows reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) that are, in our opinion, necessary for a fair presentation of the aforementioned financial statements for the interim period.
