Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report constitute forward-looking statements as such term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our future results, financial condition, results of operations and business may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “may” or other similar expressions in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations and beliefs and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Many of the factors that will determine these items are beyond our ability to control or predict.
Currently, one of the most significant factors is the ongoing adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, operating performance and the effect it has had and may continue to have on our tenants, the global, national, regional and local economies and financial markets and the real estate market in general. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will depend on future developments, including the duration of the pandemic, which are highly uncertain at this time, but that impact could be material. Moreover, you are cautioned that the COVID-19 pandemic will heighten many of the risks identified in “Item 1A. – Risk Factors” in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as well as the risks set forth herein.
For a further discussion of factors that could materially affect the outcome of our forward-looking statements, see “Item 1A. – Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, “Item 1A. – Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020 and “Item 1A. – Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. For these statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or the date of any document incorporated by reference. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly, any revisions to our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include a discussion of our consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
Critical Accounting Policies
A summary of our critical accounting policies is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements included therein. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, there were no material changes to these policies.

Overview
Alexander’s, Inc. (NYSE: ALX) is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), incorporated in Delaware, engaged in leasing, managing, developing and redeveloping its properties. All references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Company” and “Alexander’s” refer to Alexander’s, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. We are managed by, and our properties are leased and developed by, Vornado Realty Trust (“Vornado”) (NYSE: VNO). We have seven properties in the greater New York City metropolitan area.
We compete with a large number of property owners and developers. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the world, national and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, the availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation, population trends, zoning laws, and our ability to lease, sublease or sell our properties, at profitable levels. Our success is also subject to our ability to refinance existing debt on acceptable terms as it comes due.
COVID-19 Pandemic
Our business has been adversely affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In March 2020, our “non-essential” retail tenants were ordered to temporarily close and although substantially all re-opened in the latter part of June 2020, there are limitations on occupancy and other restrictions that affect their ability to resume full operations.
In limited circumstances, we have agreed to and may continue to agree to rent deferrals and abatements for certain of our tenants. We have made the policy election available to us based on the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) guidance for leases during the COVID-19 pandemic, which allows us to continue recognizing rental revenue for rent deferral agreements and to recognize rent abatements as a reduction to rental revenue in the period granted. See Note 4 - Recently Issued Accounting Literature for additional information.
Overall, we have collected approximately 95% of rent billed for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 (96% including rent deferrals under agreements which generally require repayment in monthly installments over a period of time not to exceed twelve months), including 100% for our office tenant, approximately 87% for our retail tenants (89% including rent deferrals) and approximately 97% for our residential tenants.
On September 10, 2020, Century 21, which leases 135,000 square feet at our Rego Park II shopping center ($6,400,000 of annual revenue), filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. There are $1,619,000 of unamortized deferred leasing costs on our consolidated balance sheet related to Century 21 as of September 30, 2020.
Based on our assessment of the probability of collecting rent from certain tenants, we have written off as uncollectible $3,100,000 and $4,122,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, resulting in a reduction of rental revenues during these periods. Of these amounts, $2,716,000 in each period is attributable to Century 21. In addition, we have written off receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents related to these tenants of $6,590,000 and $10,837,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, resulting in a reduction of rental revenues during these periods. Of these amounts, $5,919,000 in each period is attributable to Century 21. Prospectively, revenue recognition for these tenants will be based on actual amounts received.
Quarter Ended September 30, 2020 Financial Results Summary
Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 was $6,604,000, or $1.29 per diluted share, compared to $16,493,000, or $3.22 per diluted share in the prior year’s quarter.
Funds from operations (“FFO”) (non-GAAP) for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 was $15,363,000, or $3.00 per diluted share, compared to $25,208,000 or $4.92 per diluted share in the prior year’s quarter.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 Financial Results Summary
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $23,507,000, or $4.59 per diluted share, compared to $45,641,000, or $8.92 per diluted share in the prior year’s nine months.
FFO (non-GAAP) for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $57,102,000, or $11.15 per diluted share, compared to $75,044,000 or $14.66 per diluted share in the prior year’s nine months.

Overview - continued
Square Footage, Occupancy and Leasing Activity
As of September 30, 2020, our portfolio was comprised of seven properties aggregating 2,449,000 square feet, of which 2,254,000 square feet was in service and 195,000 square feet (the former Sears space at our Rego Park I property) was out of service for redevelopment. The in service square feet was 96% occupied as of September 30, 2020.
Financing
On February 14, 2020, we reduced our participation in our Rego Park II shopping center loan to $50,000,000 and received cash proceeds of approximately $145,000,000.
On September 14, 2020, we amended and extended the $350,000,000 mortgage loan on the retail condominium of our 731 Lexington Avenue property. Under the terms of the amendment, we paid down the loan by $50,000,000 to $300,000,000, extended the maturity date to August 2025 and guaranteed the interest payments and certain leasing costs. The principal of the loan is non-recourse to us. The interest-only loan remains at the same rate, LIBOR plus 1.40% (1.56% as of September 30, 2020).
On October 23, 2020, we completed a financing of The Alexander apartment tower in the amount of $94,000,000. The interest-only loan has a fixed rate of 2.63% and matures in November 2027.
Significant Tenant
Bloomberg accounted for revenue of $80,696,000 and $81,314,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, representing approximately 56% and 48% of our total revenues in each period, respectively. No other tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. If we were to lose Bloomberg as a tenant, or if Bloomberg were to be unable to fulfill its obligations under its lease, it would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In order to assist us in our continuing assessment of Bloomberg’s creditworthiness, we receive certain confidential financial information and metrics from Bloomberg. In addition, we access and evaluate financial information regarding Bloomberg from other private sources, as well as publicly available data.

Rental Revenues
Rental revenues were $43,499,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $57,760,000 in the prior year’s quarter, a decrease of $14,261,000. This decrease was primarily due to (i) $6,590,000 from the write-off of receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents from certain of our retail tenants, of which $5,919,000 is attributable to Century 21, (ii) $3,814,000 of lower rental income from certain of our retail tenants which were deemed uncollectible, of which $2,716,000 is attributable to Century 21 and (iii) $3,034,000 from retail tenant vacancies at our 731 Lexington Avenue property.

General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses were $1,386,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1,333,000 in the prior year’s quarter, an increase of $53,000.
Interest and Other Income, net
Interest and other income, net was $220,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $2,075,000 in the prior year’s quarter, a decrease of $1,855,000. This decrease was primarily due to $1,532,000 of lower interest income due to a decrease in average interest rates and $316,000 of lower dividend income from Macerich.
Interest and Debt Expense
Interest and debt expense was $4,463,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $9,772,000 in the prior year’s quarter, a decrease of $5,309,000. This decrease was primarily due to (i) $4,727,000 of lower interest expense due to a decrease in LIBOR and (ii) $1,117,000 of lower amortization of debt issuance costs, partially offset by (iii) $438,000 of higher interest expense due to an increase in average debt balances.
Change in Fair Value of Marketable Securities
Change in fair value of marketable securities was an expense of $1,231,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2020, resulting from a decrease in The Macerich Company’s (“Macerich”) share price of $2.18 on 564,612 shares owned. Change in fair value of marketable securities was an expense of $1,017,000 in the prior year’s quarter, resulting from a decrease in Macerich’s share price of $1.90 on 535,265 shares owned.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows
Rental revenue is our primary source of cash flow and is dependent on a number of factors, including the occupancy level and rental rates of our properties, as well as our tenants’ ability to pay their rents. Our properties provide us with a relatively consistent stream of cash flow that enables us to pay our operating expenses, interest expense, recurring capital expenditures and cash dividends to stockholders. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, in limited circumstances, we have agreed to and may continue to agree to rent deferrals and abatements for certain of our tenants. Overall, we have collected approximately 95% of rent billed for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 (96% including rent deferrals under agreements which generally require repayment in monthly installments over a period of time not to exceed twelve months), including 100% for our office tenant, approximately 87% for our retail tenants (89% including rent deferrals) and approximately 97% for our residential tenants. On September 10, 2020, Century 21, which leases 135,000 square feet at our Rego Park II shopping center ($6,400,000 of annual revenue), filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Other sources of liquidity to fund cash requirements include our existing cash, proceeds from financings, including mortgage or construction loans secured by our properties and proceeds from asset sales.
As of September 30, 2020, we had $373,612,000 of liquidity comprised of $369,778,000 of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and $3,834,000 of marketable securities. We anticipate that cash flows from continuing operations over the next twelve months, together with existing cash balances, will be adequate to fund our business operations, cash dividends to stockholders, debt amortization and capital expenditures. We may refinance our maturing debt as it comes due or choose to pay it down. However, there can be no assurance that additional financing or capital will be available to refinance our debt, or that the terms will be acceptable or advantageous to us. The challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact on our business and cash flows are evolving rapidly and cannot be predicted at this time but that impact could be material. Consequently, we will continue to evaluate our liquidity and financial position on an ongoing basis.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were $369,778,000 as of September 30, 2020, compared to $313,977,000 as of December 31, 2019, an increase of $55,801,000. This increase resulted from (i) $55,521,000 of net cash provided by operating activities and (ii) $23,910,000 of net cash provided by financing activities, partially offset by (iii) $23,630,000 of net cash used in investing activities.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $55,521,000 was comprised of (i) net income of $23,507,000 and (ii) adjustments for non-cash items of $59,157,000, partially offset by (iii) the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $27,143,000. The adjustments for non-cash items were comprised of (i) depreciation and amortization (including amortization of debt issuance costs) of $25,554,000, (ii) straight-lining of rental income of $18,306,000, (iii) the change in fair value of marketable securities of $10,789,000, (iv) write-off of tenant receivables of $4,122,000 and (v) stock-based compensation expense of $600,000, partially offset by (vi) $214,000 of dividends received in stock from Macerich.
Net cash provided by financing activities of $23,910,000 was primarily comprised of (i) proceeds from the reduction of our participation in our Rego Park II mortgage loan of $145,708,000, partially offset by (ii) dividends paid of $69,118,000 and (iii) debt repayments of $50,000,000.
Net cash used in investing activities was comprised of construction in progress and real estate additions of $23,630,000.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019

This increase resulted from (i) $99,953,000 of net cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by (ii) $69,105,000 of net cash used in financing activities and (iii) $6,566,000 of net cash used in investing activities.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $99,953,000 was comprised of (i) net income of $45,641,000, (ii) adjustments for non-cash items of $36,002,000 and (iii) the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $18,310,000.

Commitments and Contingencies
Insurance
We maintain general liability insurance with limits of $300,000,000 per occurrence and per property, of which the first $1,000,000 includes communicable disease coverage, and all-risk property and rental value insurance coverage with limits of $1.7 billion per occurrence, including coverage for acts of terrorism, with sub-limits for certain perils such as floods and earthquakes on each of our properties.
Fifty Ninth Street Insurance Company, LLC (“FNSIC”), our wholly owned consolidated subsidiary, acts as a direct insurer for coverage for acts of terrorism, including nuclear, biological, chemical and radiological (“NBCR”) acts, as defined by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended to date and which has been extended through December 2027. Coverage for acts of terrorism (including NBCR acts) is up to $1.7 billion per occurrence and in the aggregate. Coverage for acts of terrorism (excluding NBCR acts) is fully reinsured by third party insurance companies and the Federal government with no exposure to FNSIC. For NBCR acts, FNSIC is responsible for a $268,000 deductible and 20% of the balance of a covered loss, and the Federal government is responsible for the remaining 80% of a covered loss. We are ultimately responsible for any loss incurred by FNSIC.
We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism or other events. However, we cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future. We are responsible for uninsured losses and for deductibles and losses in excess of our insurance coverage, which could be material.
Our mortgage loans are non-recourse to us and contain customary covenants requiring us to maintain insurance. Although we believe that we have adequate insurance coverage for purposes of these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. If lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain, it could adversely affect our ability to finance or refinance our properties.
Paramus
In 2001, we leased 30.3 acres of land located in Paramus, New Jersey to IKEA Property, Inc. The lease contains a purchase option in October 2021 for $75,000,000. The property is encumbered by a $68,000,000 interest-only mortgage loan with a fixed rate of 4.72%, which matures in October 2021. The annual triple-net rent is the sum of $700,000 plus the amount of interest on the mortgage loan. If the purchase option is exercised, we will receive net cash proceeds of approximately $7,000,000 and recognize a gain on sale of land of approximately $60,000,000. If the purchase option is not exercised, the triple-net rent for the last 20 years would include debt service sufficient to fully amortize $68,000,000 over the remaining 20-year lease term.
Rego Park I Litigation
In June 2014, Sears Roebuck and Co. (“Sears”) filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York against Vornado and us (and certain of our subsidiaries) with regard to the 195,000 square foot store that Sears leased at our Rego Park I property alleging that the defendants are liable for harm that Sears has suffered as a result of (a) water intrusions into the premises, (b) two fires in February 2014 that caused damages to those premises, and (c) alleged violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act in the premises’ parking garage. Sears asserted various causes of actions for damages and sought to compel compliance with landlord’s obligations to repair the premises and to provide security, and to compel us to abate a nuisance that Sears claims was a cause of the water intrusions into its premises. In addition to injunctive relief, Sears sought, among other things, damages of not less than $4,000,000 and future damages it estimated would not be less than $25,000,000. In March 2016, Sears withdrew its claim for future damages leaving a remaining claim for property damages, which we estimate to be approximately $650,000 based on information provided by Sears. We intend to defend the remaining claim vigorously. The amount or range of reasonably possible losses, if any, is not expected to be greater than $650,000. On October 15, 2018, Sears filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief resulting in an automatic stay of this case.

Kings Plaza Transfer Tax
In 2012, we sold the Kings Plaza Regional Shopping Center (“Kings Plaza”) and paid real property transfer taxes to New York City in connection with the sale. In 2015, the New York City Department of Finance (“NYC DOF”) issued a Notice of Determination to us assessing an additional New York City real property transfer tax amount, including interest.
In 2014, in a case with similar facts, the NYC DOF issued a Notice of Determination to a Vornado joint venture assessing an additional New York City real property transfer tax amount, including interest. In January 2017, a New York City administrative law judge made a determination upholding the Vornado joint venture’s position that such additional real property transfer taxes were not due. On February 16, 2018, the New York City Tax Appeals Tribunal (the “Tribunal”) overturned the January 2017 determination. The Vornado joint venture appealed the Tribunal’s decision to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York and on April 25, 2019, the Tribunal’s decision was unanimously upheld. The Vornado joint venture filed a motion to reargue the Appellate Division’s decision or for leave to appeal to the New York State Court of Appeals. On December 12, 2019, that motion was denied and the case can no longer be appealed. Based on the precedent of the Tribunal’s decision, we paid the potential additional real property transfer taxes of $23,797,000 ($15,874,000 of real property transfer tax and $7,923,000 of interest) on April 5, 2018. We are currently evaluating our options relating to this matter.
Letters of Credit
Approximately $1,030,000 of standby letters of credit were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2020.
Other
There are various other legal actions against us in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the outcome of such matters in the aggregate will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) (non-GAAP)
FFO is computed in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude net gains from sales of depreciable real estate assets, real estate impairment losses, depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets and other specified items, including the pro rata share of such adjustments of unconsolidated subsidiaries. FFO and FFO per diluted share are used by management, investors and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains on sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, rather than fluctuating based on existing market conditions. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash requirements and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a performance measure or cash flow as a liquidity measure.
