ACADIA REALTY TRUST 10-Q

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. Disclosure Controls and Procedures Our disclosure controls and procedures include internal controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in this and other reports filed under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the required time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. It should be noted that no system of controls can provide complete assurance of achieving a company’s objectives and that future events may impact the effectiveness of a system of controls. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, after conducting an evaluation, together with members of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective as of June 30, 2022 due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below. Previously Reported Material Weakness As disclosed in Item 9A. “Controls and Procedures” of our Form 10-K, we previously identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to an error in accounting treatment at the time of formation related to the improper consolidation of two Fund investments that are less-than-wholly-owned through the Company’s opportunity funds. Management is in the process of remediating the material weakness and believes that the consolidated financial statements, and related notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material aspects, the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Remediation We have commenced measures to remediate the identified material weakness. We performed additional procedures to assess the population of less-than-wholly-owned investments at year end and are implementing additional controls in this area. Until the material weakness is remediated, we will continue to perform additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The material weakness will not be considered remediated until management designs and implements effective controls that operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are effective. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting. 61 PART II – OTH ER INFORMATION
