1. | Organization and Basis of Presentation |
Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc. (NYSE: APTS) is a real estate investment trust engaged primarily in the ownership and operation of Class A multifamily properties, with select investments in grocery anchored shopping centers, Class A office buildings, and student housing properties. Preferred Apartment Communities’ investment objective is to generate attractive, stable returns for stockholders by investing in income-producing properties and acquiring or originating real estate loans for multifamily properties. As of March 31, 2020, the Company owned or was invested in 123 properties in 15 states, predominantly in the Southeast region of the United States. Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc. has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its tax year ended December 31, 2011. The Company was externally managed and advised by Preferred Apartment Advisors, LLC, or its Former Manager, a Delaware limited liability company and related party until the Company acquired the Former Manager and NMP Advisors, LLC (the "Sub-Manager"), or the Internalization, on January 31, 2020. Prior to the Internalization transaction, according to the Sixth Amended and Restated Management Agreement, effective as of June 3, 2016, among the Company, the Operating Partnership, and the Former Manager, or the Former Management Agreement, the Company paid acquisition fees and other fees and expense reimbursements to the Former Manager. Following the Internalization transaction that closed on January 31, 2020, the Company no longer pays any fees or expense reimbursements to its Former Manager (see Note 6).
As of March 31, 2020, the Company had 47,578,631 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, or Common Stock, issued and outstanding and was the approximate 98.4% owner of the Preferred Apartment Communities Operating Partnership, L.P., the Company's operating partnership, at that date. The number of partnership units not owned by the Company totaled 774,687 at March 31, 2020 and represented Class A OP Units of the Operating Partnership, or Class A OP Units. The Class A OP Units are convertible at any time at the option of the holder into the Operating Partnership's choice of either cash or Common Stock. In the case of cash, the value is determined based upon the trailing 20-day volume weighted average price of the Company's Common Stock.
The Company controlled the Operating Partnership through its sole general partner interest and conducted substantially all of its business through the Operating Partnership until January 31, 2020. Beginning February 1, 2020, the Company conducts substantially all of its business through PAC Carveout, LLC, or Carveout, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership. Carveout intends to elect to be taxed as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its tax year ended December 31, 2020. The Company has determined the Operating Partnership is a variable interest entity, or VIE, of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company is involved with other VIEs as discussed in Note 4. New Market Properties, LLC owns and conducts the business of our portfolio of grocery-anchored shopping centers. Preferred Office Properties, LLC owns and conducts the business of our portfolio of office buildings. Preferred Campus Communities, LLC owns and conducts the business of our portfolio of off-campus student housing communities. Each of these entities are indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership.
Basis of Presentation
These consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of the Company and the Operating Partnership presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. These condensed financial statements were derived from audited financial statements, but do not contain all the disclosures required by GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain adjustments have been made consisting of normal recurring accruals, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. During the first quarter of 2020, there was a global outbreak of a novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, that will continue to have an adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of economic slowdown in the United States and globally. The potential reach, severity and duration of impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic will cause our estimates and forecasts of future events to be inherently less certain. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Amounts are presented in thousands where indicated.

2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Impairment Assessment
The Company evaluates its tangible and identifiable intangible real estate assets for impairment when events such as declines in a property’s operating performance, deteriorating market conditions, or environmental or legal concerns bring recoverability of the carrying value of one or more assets into question. When qualitative factors indicate the possibility of impairment, the total undiscounted cash flows of the property, including proceeds from disposition, are compared to the net book value of the property. If this test indicates that impairment exists, an impairment loss is recorded in earnings equal to the shortage of the book value to fair value, calculated as the discounted net cash flows of the property.
Current expected credit losses on real estate loan investments
The Company carries its investments in real estate loans at amortized cost that consists of drawn amounts on the loans, net of unamortized deferred loan origination fees and current expected credit losses.
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, that replaced the incurred loss model with an expected loss model for instruments measured at amortized cost, and requires entities to record credit allowances for total expected future losses on financial assets at the outset of each loan. For each loan in which the Company is the lender, the amount of protection afforded to the Company is estimated to be the excess of the future estimated fair market value of the developed property over the developer’s related obligations (including the Company’s mezzanine or member loan(s)), other loans senior to the Company's, the expected future balance of accrued interest and any other obligations related to the project’s funding. The excess represents the amount of equity dollars in each real estate project plus profit expected to be realized by the developer on the project, both of which are in a subordinate position to the Company's real estate loan investments. This numeric result is expressed as a percentage of the property's expected future fair value (a "loss reserve ratio"), which is then pooled into ranges of loss percentages that was derived from company-specific loss experience. The product of this indicated loss reserve ratio and the expected fully-funded balance (inclusive of an expected future balance of accrued interest) is the initial total expected credit loss reserve. Over the life of the loan, the initial reserve is reevaluated for potential reduction at the achievement of certain milestones in construction and lease-up progress as the project approaches completion and the loan approaches maturity, given no unforeseen degradation in project performance or failure to adhere to the terms of the loan by the borrower/developer. Finally, the loss reserve may be further refined by the Company due to any subjective qualitative factors deemed pertinent and worthy of reflection.
The Company implemented this new guidance by applying this model to its existing portfolio of real estate loan investments using the modified retrospective method and in doing so, recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings on January 1, 2020. See note 4.
The Company's notes and lines of credit receivable are unsecured and so are assessed for expected future credit loss by individually assessing the expected profit from current development projects in progress, as well as the viability of the personal guarantees of the borrowers.
The Company's real estate loan investments are collateralized by real estate development projects and secured further by guaranties of repayment from one or more of the borrowers. The Company's lines of credit receivable are typically only collateralized by personal guaranties, but occasionally may be cross-collateralized by interests in other real estate projects. As a result, the Company regularly evaluates the extent and impact of any credit deterioration associated with the performance and/or value of the underlying collateral property, as well as the financial and operating capability of the borrower. Specifically, a property’s operating results and any cash reserves are analyzed and used to assess (i) whether cash from operations is sufficient to cover the debt service requirements currently and into the future, (ii) the ability of the borrower to refinance the loan, and/or (iii) the property’s liquidation value. The Company also evaluates the financial wherewithal of any loan guarantors as well as the borrower’s competency in managing and operating the properties. In addition, the overall economic environment, real estate sector, and geographic sub‑market in which the borrower operates are considered. Such analyses are completed and reviewed by management, utilizing various data sources, including periodic financial data such as property operating statements, occupancy, tenant profile, rental rates, operating expenses, the borrower’s exit plan, capitalization and discount rates and site inspections.
See the Revenue Recognition section of this Note for other loan-related policy disclosures required by ASC 310-10-50-6.

Purchase Option Terminations
The Company will occasionally receive a purchase option on the underlying property in conjunction with extending a real estate loan investment to the developer of the property. The purchase option is often at a discount to the to-be-agreed-upon market value of the property, once stabilized. If the Company elects not to exercise the purchase option and acquire the property, it may negotiate to sell the purchase option back to the developer and receive a termination fee in consideration. The amount of the termination fee is accounted for as additional interest on the real estate loan investment and is recognized as interest revenue utilizing the effective interest method over the period beginning from the date of election until the earlier of (i) the maturity of the real estate loan investment and (ii) the sale of the property.
Revenue Recognition
Multifamily communities and student housing properties
Rental revenue is recognized when earned from residents of the Company's multifamily communities, which is over the terms of the rental agreements, typically of nine to fifteen months’ duration. The Company evaluates the collectability of amounts due from residents and recognizes revenue from residents when collectability is deemed probable, in accordance with ASC 842-30-25-12.
The Company evaluated the various ancillary revenues within its multifamily leases, including resident utility reimbursements. Having met the criteria that (i) the timing and pattern of transfer for the lease component and associated non-lease components are the same and (ii) that the lease component, if accounted for separately would be classified as an operating lease, the Company has elected the practical expedient under Lease Accounting, ASC 842, paragraph 10-15-42A, to elect reporting the lease component and non-lease components as one single component within the rental and other property revenues line on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Revenue from utility reimbursements are considered variable lease payments and are recognized in the period in which the related expenses are incurred.
Grocery-anchored shopping centers and office properties
Our retail leases have original lease terms which generally range from three to seven years for spaces under 5,000 square feet and from ten to twenty years for spaces over 10,000 square feet. Anchor leases generally contain renewal options for one or more additional periods whereas in-line tenant leases may or may not have renewal options. With the exception of anchor leases, the leases generally contain contractual increases in base rent rates over the lease term and the base rent rates for renewal periods are generally based upon the rental rate for the primary term, which may be adjusted for inflation or market conditions. Anchor leases generally do not contain contractual increases in base rent rates over the lease term and the renewal periods. Our leases generally provide for the payment of fixed monthly rentals and may also provide for the payment of additional rent based upon a percentage of the tenant’s gross sales above a certain threshold level (“percentage rent”). Our leases also generally include tenant reimbursements for common area expenses, insurance, and real estate taxes. Utilities are generally paid by tenants either directly through separate meters or through payment of tenant reimbursements. The foregoing general description of the characteristics of the leases in our centers is not intended to describe all leases and material variations in lease terms may exist.
Our office building leases have original lease terms which generally range from five to fifteen years and generally contain contractual, annual base rental rate escalations ranging from 2% to 3%. These leases may be structured as gross where the tenant’s base rental rate is all inclusive and there is no additional obligation to reimburse building operating expenses, net or NNN where in addition to base rent the tenant is also responsible for its pro rata share of reimbursable building operating expenses, or modified gross where in addition to base rent the tenant is also responsible for its pro rata share of reimbursable building operating expense increases over a base year amount (typically calculated as the actual reimbursable operating expenses in year one of the original lease term).
Base rental revenue from tenants' operating leases is a lease component revenue in the Company's grocery-anchored shopping centers and office properties and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Revenue based on "percentage rent" provisions that provide for additional rents that become due upon achievement of specified sales revenue targets (as specified in each lease agreement) is recognized only after the tenant exceeds its specified sales revenue target. Revenue from reimbursements of the tenants' share of real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance, or CAM, costs represent non-lease component revenue. Having met the criteria that (i) the timing and pattern of transfer for the lease component and associated non-lease components are the same and (ii) that the lease component, if accounted for separately would be classified as an operating lease, the Company has elected the practical expedient under ASC 842, Leases, paragraph 10-15-42A, to elect reporting the lease component and non-lease components as one single component under rental and other property revenues

recognized in accordance with ASC 842. Revenue from reimbursements are considered variable lease payments and are recognized in the period in which the related expenses are incurred. The Company does not record income and offsetting expense for certain variable costs paid directly to third parties by lessees on behalf of lessors.
Non-lease components which do not qualify under the practical expedient primarily include lease termination income and other ancillary revenue (e.g. application fees, license fees, late fees and tenant billbacks). Lease termination revenues are recognized ratably over the revised remaining lease term after giving effect to the termination notice or when tenant vacates and the Company has no further obligations under the lease. Rents and tenant reimbursements collected in advance are recorded as prepaid rent within other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company evaluated the collectability of the tenant receivable related to rental and reimbursement billings due from tenants and straight-line rent receivables, which represent the cumulative amount of future adjustments necessary to present rental revenue on a straight-line basis, by taking into consideration the Company's historical write-off experience, tenant credit-worthiness, current economic trends, and remaining lease terms. In performing a detailed review of each tenant, we determined if the balances were paid in the subsequent month, if if the tenant had requested rent relief in the subsequent month due to COVID-19 circumstances, if the tenant was a credit tenant that was not typically late, and if the tenant had a security deposit on hand. If collection of substantially all of the outstanding balance is not probable, the tenant's rental revenue is recognized on a cash basis and all accrued balances are written off to rental revenue.
The Company evaluates the collectability of these amounts and recognizes revenue related to tenants where collectability is deemed probable, in accordance with ASC 842-30-25-12. Upon adoption of ASC 842, the Company began recording amounts not deemed probable of collection as a reduction of rental and other property revenues, as applicable.
In April 2020, the FASB issued a question-and-answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) focused on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of COVID-19. Under existing lease guidance, the Company would have to determine, on a lease by lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (treated with the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). The Lease Modification Q&A clarifies that entities may elect to not evaluate whether lease-related relief that lessors provide to mitigate the economic effects of COVID-19 on lessees is a lease modification under Topic 842, Leases. Instead, an entity that elects not to evaluate whether a concession directly related to COVID-19 is a modification can then elect whether to apply the modification guidance (i.e. assume the relief was always contemplated by the contract or assume the relief was not contemplated by the contract). Both lessees and lessors may make this election. The Company is evaluating its election on a disaggregated basis, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. The future impact of the Lease Modification Q&A is dependent upon the extent of lease concessions granted to tenants as a result of COVID-19 in future periods and the elections made by the Company at the time of entering into such concessions.
The Company may provide grocery-anchored shopping center and office building tenants an allowance for the construction of leasehold improvements. These leasehold improvements are capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the improvements or the remaining lease term. If the allowance represents a payment for a purpose other than funding leasehold improvements, or in the event the Company is not considered the owner of the improvements, the allowance is considered to be a lease incentive and is recognized over the lease term as a reduction of rental revenue. Determination of the appropriate accounting for the payment of a tenant allowance is made on a lease-by-lease basis, considering the facts and circumstances of the individual tenant lease. When the Company is the owner of the leasehold improvements, recognition of rental revenue commences when the lessee is given possession of the leased space upon completion of tenant improvements. However, when the leasehold improvements are owned by the tenant, the lease inception date is the date the tenant obtains possession of the leased space for purposes of constructing its leasehold improvements. For our office properties, if the improvement is deemed to be a “landlord asset,” and the tenant funded the tenant improvements, the cost is amortized over the term of the underlying lease with a corresponding recognition of rental revenues. In order to qualify as a landlord asset, the specifics of the tenant’s assets are reviewed, including the Company's approval of the tenant’s detailed expenditures, whether such assets may be usable by other future tenants, whether the Company has consent to alter or remove the assets from the premises and generally remain the Company's property at the end of the lease.
Gains on sales of real estate assets
The Company recognizes gains on sales of real estate based on the difference between the consideration received and the carrying amount of the distinct asset, including the carrying amount of any liabilities relieved or assumed by the purchasing counterparty and net of disposition expenses.

Lessee accounting
The Company has evaluated its leases for which it is the lessee to determine the value of any right of use assets and related lease liabilities. All of these leases qualify as operating leases. The Company has three ground leases related to our office and grocery-anchored shopping center assets, one of which had been recorded at fair value on the Company's balance sheet at acquisition due to a purchase option the Company deemed probable of exercising. These ground leases generally have extended terms (e.g. over twenty years with multiple renewal options) and generally have base rent with CPI-based increases. The Company evaluated its renewal option periods in quantifying its asset and liability related to these ground leases. In determining the value of its right of use asset and lease liability, the Company used discount rates comparable to recent loan rates obtained on comparative properties within its portfolio. The Company is also the lessee of office space for its corporate headquarters and of furniture and office equipment, which generally are three to five years in duration with minimal rent increases. The Company’s right of use asset and related lease liability in accordance with ASC 842-20-30 related to these leases are recorded within the Tenant Receivables and Other Assets and the Security Deposits and Other Liabilities line items of the balance sheet, respectively. Lease expense for ground leases and furniture and office equipment located at the Company's properties is included in the consolidated statements of operations within property operations and maintenance and expense for office rent and furniture and office equipment in the Company's corporate headquarters are included in general and administrative expense. See note 12 for more disclosures related to the Company's right of use assets and lease liabilities.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance | |||
ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326) | ASU 2016-03 ("CECL") changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets, including loans, which are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance replaces the existing incurred loss model with an expected loss model for instruments measured at amortized cost, and requires entities to record credit allowances for financial assets rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the other-than temporary impairment model. | January 1, 2020 | Implementation of the new guidance on accounting for financial assets was limited to our real estate loan investments. We have developed a model that derives a reserve ratio based upon the amount of financial protection afforded each instrument. For each loan in which we are the lender, the amount of protection afforded to us is estimated to be the excess of the future estimated fair market value of the developed property over the commitment amount of each loan (including other loans senior to the Company’s), inclusive of accrued interest and other related receivables. The excess represents the amount of equity dollars in each real estate project, which are in a subordinate position to our real estate loan investments. We implemented this new guidance using the modified retrospective basis by recording a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings on January 1, 2020 of approximately $7.4 million. |

Impacts of COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic emerged in December 2019 and has since spread globally, including to every state in the United States. On March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency. Since that time, efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 have intensified. Several countries, including the United States, have taken steps to restrict travel, temporarily close businesses and issue quarantine orders. The restrictions have resulted in impacts to earnings for commercial real estate, which in turn is expected to affect asset valuations to some degree. The Company does not consider this event to be a triggering event, since no evidence of declining valuations of any consequence have emerged to cause a triggering event, as evidenced by step one analyses performed on a sample of its properties from each segment. The Company found a significant amount of cushion between the asset’s book value and the undiscounted cash flows for the properties evaluated.
The Company's monthly rent collections for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 have been approximately level across the Company's segments, with a minor dip in collections in March for in-line retail tenants, as such tenants are generally smaller operations that are likely have less access to adequate sources of liquidity to weather economic downturns than grocery anchor tenants and many office tenants. The closure of several in-line tenant businesses and monthly rent collections are beginning to fall. Within our multifamily communities, despite the fact that collections of rents had not yet begun to decline as of March 2020, the Company offered rent deferral plans for the months of April and May 2020. Any deferred rents would be due over the remaining lease term of the individual tenants. Any uncollected deferred rent amounts will be deemed uncollectible. For office tenants, the company evaluated all delinquent receivable balances by performing a detailed review of each tenant. In this review, we determined if the balances were paid in the subsequent month, if tenant had requested rent relief in the subsequent month due to COVID-19 circumstances, if the tenant was a credit tenant that was not typically late, and if the tenant had a security deposit on hand. If the likelihood of the tenant submitting payment was deemed to be less than probable based on the aforementioned criteria, we determined the tenant as being an “at risk” tenant and revenue would be recognized on a cash basis.
Multifamily communities acquired
During the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of Altis Wiregrass Ranch, a 392-unit multifamily community located in Tampa, Florida.
The aggregate purchase price of the multifamily acquisition was approximately $84.0 million, exclusive of acquired escrows, security deposits, prepaids, capitalized acquisition costs and other miscellaneous assets and assumed liabilities. The Company acquired no multifamily communities during the three-month period ended March 31, 2019.

At March 31, 2020, the Company had recorded acquired gross intangible assets of $313.7 million, accumulated amortization of $159.3 million, gross intangible liabilities of $86.6 million and accumulated amortization of $26.1 million. Net intangible assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2020 will be amortized over the weighted average remaining amortization periods of approximately 7.2 and 9.1 years, respectively.
At March 31, 2020, the Company had restricted cash of approximately $20.7 million that was contractually restricted to fund capital expenditures and other property-level commitments such as tenant improvements and leasing commissions.
Purchase Options
In the course of extending real estate loan investments for property development, the Company will often receive an exclusive option to purchase the property once development and stabilization are complete. If the Company determines that it does not wish to acquire the property, it has the right to sell its purchase option back to the borrower for a termination fee in the amount of the purchase option discount.
Effective May 7, 2018, the Company terminated its purchase options on the Bishop Street multifamily community and the Haven Charlotte student housing property, both of which were partially supported by real estate loan investments held by the Company, in exchange for termination fees aggregating approximately $5.6 million from the developers. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded approximately $3.1 million of interest revenue related to these purchase option terminations.
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company terminated its purchase options on the Sanibel Straits, Newbergh, Wiregrass and Cameron Square multifamily communities and the Solis Kennesaw student housing property, all of which are partially supported by real estate loan investments held by the Company, in exchange for termination fees aggregating approximately $9.1 million from the developers. These fees are treated as additional interest revenue and are amortized over the period ending with the earlier of (i) the sale of the underlying property and (ii) the maturity of the real estate loans. The Company recorded approximately $1.5 million and $1.2 million of interest revenue related to these purchase option terminations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Effective March 6, 2020, the Company terminated its purchase option on the Falls at Forsyth multifamily community for $2.5 million.

As discussed in note 2, the Company established total expected credit losses against its existing portfolio of real estate loan investments on January 1, 2020. In doing so, it recorded a cumulative effect reduction adjustment to retained earnings of approximately $7.4 million. For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded an aggregate net increase in its provision for expected credit losses of approximately $4.5 million.
As described in note 2, the Company assesses the credit quality of its real estate loan investments by a calculated loss reserve ratio, which is an internally-developed credit quality indicator. Loss reserve ratios reflect the amount of protection afforded by the amount of equity and debt financing subordinate to the Company's position in the project; higher reserve ratios reflect a lower amount of invested dollars junior to the Company's position. The following table presents the Company's aggregation of loan amounts by final reserve ratio as of March 31, 2020:
Final reserve ratio | Number of loans | Total amount due (in thousands) | ||||||

The COVID-19 pandemic has, and will continue to have, impacts upon the development activity underlying our real estate loan investments, including the availability of labor, the supply and availability of construction materials and the ability to achieve leased stabilization. The Company's Berryessa real estate loan investment carries a 4% final reserve ratio at March 31, 2020. The project is experiencing a temporary construction delay due to effects of the COVID-19 pandemic but is expected to resume shortly. The Company assesses its real estate loan investment portfolio for impacts from COVID-19 at the outset of the project, as well as both quantitatively and qualitatively at the achievement of construction and leasing milestones during the projects' lives.
The Company can make no assurances that economic or industry conditions or other circumstances will not lead to increases in allowances for credit losses.
Management monitors the credit quality of the obligors under each of the Company's real estate loans by tracking the timeliness of scheduled interest and principal payments relative to the due dates as specified in the loan documents, as well as draw requests on the loans relative to the project budgets. In addition, management monitors the actual progress of development and construction relative to the construction plan, as well as local, regional and national economic conditions that may bear on our current and target markets.
The Company's Starkville loan has been in default since August 20, 2019 under the terms of the underlying mezzanine loan agreement. During the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company recorded a specific loan loss reserve related to this loan totaling $1.4 million, reducing its net investment in the Starkville loan from $7.3 million, including accrued interest of $1.2 million, to a carrying amount of $5.9 million. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2020, the Company also recorded a total of $2.1 million in reserves pertaining to this loan under ASU 2016-03, reducing its carrying amount to $3.8 million as of March 31, 2020.
