NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020
NOTE 1 • ORGANIZATION
Centerspace, collectively with its consolidated subsidiaries (“Centerspace,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), is a North Dakota real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused on the ownership, management, acquisition, redevelopment, and development of apartment communities. As of June 30, 2021, Centerspace owned interests in 62 apartment communities consisting of 11,579 apartment homes.
NOTE 2 • BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Centerspace conducts a majority of its business activities through a consolidated operating partnership, Centerspace, LP (f/k/a IRET Properties), a North Dakota limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), as well as through a number of other consolidated subsidiary entities. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the Company’s accounts and the accounts of all its subsidiaries in which it maintains a controlling interest, including the Operating Partnership. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements also reflect the Operating Partnership’s ownership of certain joint venture entities in which the Operating Partnership has a general partner or controlling interest. These entities are consolidated into the Company’s operations, with noncontrolling interests reflecting the noncontrolling partners’ share of ownership, income, and expenses.
UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Centerspace’s interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods, have been included.
The current period’s results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results which ultimately may be achieved for the year. The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on February 22, 2021.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting standards updates (“ASUs”).
Standard Description Date of Adoption Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting
This ASU contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. This ASU is optional and may be elected over time. Centerspace adopted the guidance in June 2021 on a prospective basis. This adoption did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) - Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity
This ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments and removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception. This ASU also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas and provides updated disclosure requirements. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. Centerspace is currently evaluating the ASU and the impact it may have on Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS, AND RESTRICTED CASH
As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, restricted cash consisted primarily of real estate deposits and escrows held by lenders for real estate taxes, insurance, and capital additions.
LEASES
As a lessor, Centerspace primarily leases multifamily apartment homes which qualify as operating leases with terms that are generally one year or less. Rental revenues are recognized in accordance with ASC 842, Leases , using a method that represents a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rental income represents approximately 98.1 % of total revenues and includes gross market rent less adjustments for concessions, vacancy loss, and bad debt. Other property revenues represent the remaining 1.9 % of total revenues and are primarily driven by other fee income, which is typically recognized when earned, at a point in time.
Some of the Company’s apartment communities have commercial spaces available for lease. Lease terms for these spaces typically range from three to fifteen years . The leases for commercial spaces generally include options to extend the lease for additional terms.
Beginning in April 2020, the Company abated rent, common area maintenance, and real estate taxes for commercial tenants that experienced government-mandated interruptions or closures of their businesses related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company elected to account for these accommodations as though enforceable rights and obligations existed without evaluating if such a right or obligation existed under the lease agreement, as allowed by the FASB Q&A released on April 10, 2020. The accommodations were recognized as variable lease payments. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company did not recognize a reduction in revenue due to the abatement of amounts due from commercial tenants, compared to a reduction of $ 402,000 in the same period of the prior year. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized reductions of $ 47,000 and $ 402,000 , respectively, due to the abatement of amounts due from commercial tenants.
Many of the leases contain non-lease components for utility reimbursement from residents and common area maintenance from commercial tenants. Centerspace has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for all asset classes. The combined components are included in lease income and are accounted for under ASC 842.
The aggregate amount of future scheduled lease income on commercial operating leases, excluding any variable lease income and non-lease components, as of June 30, 2021, was as follows:

Thereafter 2,488
Total scheduled lease income - commercial operating leases $ 12,962
REVENUES
Revenue is recognized in accordance with the transfer of goods and services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled for those goods and services.
Revenue streams that are included in revenues from contracts with customers include:
• O ther property revenue: Centerspace recognizes revenue for rental related income not included as a component of a lease, such as application fees, as earned.
• Gains or losses on sales of real estate: A gain or loss is recognized when the criteria for derecognition of an asset are met, including when (1) a contract exists and (2) the buyer obtained control of the nonfinancial asset that was sold.
The following table presents the disaggregation of revenue streams for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

Total revenue $ 46,656 $ 43,910 $ 93,304 $ 88,316
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The Company evaluates long-lived assets, including investments in real estate, for impairment indicators at least quarterly. The judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on factors such as operational performance, market conditions, expected holding period of each property, and legal and environmental concerns. If indicators exist, the company compares the expected future undiscounted cash flows for the property against the carrying amount of that property. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recorded for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying amount. If the anticipated holding period for properties, the estimated fair value of properties, or other factors change based on market conditions or otherwise, the evaluation of impairment charges may be different and such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is subjective and is based, in part, on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates, and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results. Reducing planned property holding periods may increase the likelihood of recording impairment losses.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the company recorded no impairment charges.
MORTGAGE LOANS RECEIVABLE AND NOTES RECEIVABLE
In March 2020, in connection with the acquisition of Ironwood, an apartment community in New Hope, Minnesota, the Company acquired a tax increment financing note receivable (“TIF”) with a principal balance of $ 6.6 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, which appears within other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The note bears an interest rate of 4.5 % with payments due in February and August of each year.

Table of Contents
In December 2019, Centerspace originated a $ 29.9 million construction loan and a $ 15.3 million mezzanine loan for the development of a multifamily community located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In conjunction with the loans, the Company received a guaranty for the substantial completion of the project improvements from an investment grade guarantor. The construction and mezzanine loans bear and accrue interest at 4.5 % and 11.5 %, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had fully funded the $ 29.9 million construction loan and $ 7.1 million of the mezzanine loan, both of which appear within mortgage loans receivable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2021, the construction loan had accrued $ 560,000 of interest which is added to the $ 29.9 million original principal balance. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had funded $ 24.7 million of the construction loan. The loans are secured by mortgages and mature on December 31, 2023, and the agreement provides Centerspace with an option to purchase the development. The loans represent an investment in an unconsolidated variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE as it does not have the power to direct the activities which most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance nor does it have significant influence over the entity.
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
Centerspace has determined that its Operating Partnership and each of its less-than-wholly owned real estate partnerships are VIEs, as the limited partners or the functional equivalent of limited partners lack substantive kick-out rights and substantive participating rights. The Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIEs, and the VIEs are required to be consolidated on the balance sheet because the Company has a controlling financial interest in the VIEs and has both the power to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIEs as well as the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIEs that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. Because the Operating Partnership is a VIE, all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held through a VIE.
MARKETABLE SECURITIES
Marketable securities consisted of equity securities. Equity securities are reported at fair value based on quoted market prices (Level 1 inputs). Any unrealized gains or losses are included in interest and other income on the consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 the Company had no marketable securities. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company had a realized loss of $ 3.4 million arising from the disposal of such securities which appears in interest and other income (loss) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
NOTE 3 • EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares of beneficial interest (“common shares”) outstanding during the period. Centerspace has issued restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and incentive stock options (“ISOs”) under the 2015 Incentive Plan and Series D Convertible Preferred Units (“Series D preferred units”), which could have a dilutive effect on the earnings per share upon exercise of the RSUs or ISOs or upon conversion of the Series D preferred units (refer to Note 4 for further discussion of the Series D preferred units). Other than the issuance of RSUs, ISOs, and Series D preferred units, there are no outstanding options, warrants, convertible stock or other contractual obligations requiring issuance of additional shares that would result in dilution of earnings. Under the terms of the Operating Partnership’s Agreement of Limited Partnership, limited partners have the right to require the Operating Partnership to redeem their limited partnership units (“Units”) any time following the first anniversary of the date they acquired such Units (“Exchange Right”). Upon the exercise of Exchange Rights, and in Centerspace’s sole discretion, it may issue common shares in exchange for Units on a one -for-one basis.
Performance-based RSUs of 31,030 and 27,964 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Series D preferred units of 228,000 were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, time-based RSUs of 13,000 and 15,000 , respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, weighted average stock options of 43,629 were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the assumed proceeds per share plus the average unearned compensation were greater than the average market price of common shares for the periods ended and, therefore were anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, weighted average stock options of 63,527 and 31,764 , respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

NOTE 5 • DEBT
As of June 30, 2021, 44 apartment communities were not encumbered by mortgages, with 29 of those properties providing credit support for the unsecured borrowings. The Company’s primary unsecured credit facility (“unsecured credit facility”) is a revolving, multi-bank line of credit, with the Bank of Montreal serving as administrative agent. The line of credit has total commitments and borrowing capacity of $ 250.0 million, based on the value of properties contained in the unencumbered asset pool (“UAP”). As of June 30, 2021, the additional borrowing availability was $ 163.0 million beyond the $ 87.0 million drawn, including the balance on the operating line of credit (discussed below). The unsecured credit facility matures on August 31, 2022, with one twelve-month option to extend the maturity date at the Company’s election.
Under the unsecured credit facility, the Company also has unsecured term loans of $ 70.0 million and $ 75.0 million, included within notes payable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, which mature on January 15, 2024 and on August 31, 2025, respectively.
The interest rates on the line of credit and term loans are based, at the Company’s option, on either the lender’s base rate plus a margin, ranging from 35 - 85 basis points, or the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), plus a margin that ranges from 135 - 190 basis points based on the consolidated leverage ratio, as defined under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The unsecured credit facility and unsecured senior notes are subject to customary financial covenants and limitations. The Company believes that it is in compliance with all such financial covenants and limitations as of June 30, 2021.
In January, Centerspace amended and expanded its private shelf agreement to increase the aggregate amount available for issuance of unsecured senior promissory notes (“unsecured senior notes”) to $ 225.0 million. Under this agreement, the Company issued $ 75.0 million of Series A notes due September 13, 2029 bearing interest at a rate of 3.84 % annually, $ 50.0 million of Series B notes due September 30, 2028 bearing interest at a rate of 3.69 % annually, and $ 50.0 million of Series C notes due June 6, 2030 bearing interest at a rate of 2.70 % annually. Under the private shelf agreement, there is $ 50.0 million remaining available.
As of June 30, 2021, Centerspace owned 18 apartment communities that served as collateral for mortgage loans. All of these mortgage loans were non-recourse to the Company other than for standard carve-out obligations. As of June 30, 2021, the Company believes that there are no material defaults or instances of noncompliance in regards to any of these mortgages payable.

NOTE 6 • DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Centerspace’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swap contracts to fix the variable interest rate on its term loans and a portion of its primary line of credit. The interest rate swap contracts qualify as cash flow hedges.
Changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income for the interest rate swaps will be reclassified to interest expense as interest expense is incurred on the term loans and the hedged portion of the primary line of credit. During the next twelve months, the company estimates an additional $ 4.4 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 , Centerspace had a $ 50.0 million interest rate swap to fix the interest rate on a portion of the primary line of credit.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 , Centerspace had three interest rate swap contracts in effect with a notional amount of $ 195.0 million and one additional interest rate swap that becomes effective on January 31, 2023, with a notional amount of $ 70.0 million. These interest rate swaps are to fix the interest rate on the term loans.

NOTE 7 • FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities are carried at amounts that reasonably approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. For variable rate line of credit debt that re-prices frequently, fair values are based on carrying values.
In determining the fair value of other financial instruments, Centerspace applies FASB ASC 820, “ Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures. ” Fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (Levels 1 and 2) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (Level 3). Fair value estimates may differ from the amounts that may ultimately be realized upon sale or disposition of the assets and liabilities.

Assets
Mortgages and notes receivable $ 30,994 — — $ 30,994
Liabilities
Derivative instruments - interest rate swaps $ 15,905 $ — — $ 15,905
The fair value of the interest rate swaps is determined using the market standard methodology of netting discounted expected variable cash payments and receipts. The variable cash payments and receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates (a forward curve) derived from observable market interest rate curves. The Company also considers both its own nonperformance risk and the counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurement (Level 3).
Centerspace utilizes an income approach with level 3 inputs based on expected future cash flows to value mortgages and notes receivable. The inputs include market transactions for similar instruments, management estimates of comparable interest rates (range of 3.75 % to 10.75 %), and instrument specific credit risk (range of 0.5 % to 1.0 %). Changes in the fair value of these receivables from period to period are reported in interest and other income on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

NOTE 9 • SEGMENT REPORTING
Centerspace operates in a single reportable segment which includes the ownership, management, development, redevelopment, and acquisition of apartment communities. Each of the operating properties is considered a separate operating segment because each property earns revenues, incurs expenses, and has discrete financial information. The chief operating decision-makers evaluate each property’s operating results to make decisions about resources to be allocated and to assess performance and do not group the properties based on geography, size, or type for this purpose. The apartment communities have similar long-term economic characteristics and provide similar products and services to residents. No apartment community comprises more than 10% of consolidated revenues, profits, or assets. Accordingly, the apartment communities are aggregated into a single reportable segment. “All other” includes non-multifamily components of mixed-use properties and apartment communities the company has sold.
19
Table of Contents
The executive management team comprises the chief operating decision-makers. This team measures the performance of the reportable segment based on net operating income (“NOI”), which the company defines as total real estate revenues less property operating expenses, including real estate taxes. Centerspace believes that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for real estate because it provides a measure of operations that is unaffected by depreciation, amortization, financing, property management overhead, casualty losses, and general and administrative expense. NOI does not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income, net income available for common shareholders, or cash flow from operating activities as a measure of financial performance.
The following tables present NOI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, along with reconciliations to net income in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Segment assets are also reconciled to total assets as reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 10 • COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation. In the ordinary course of operations, Centerspace becomes involved in litigation. At this time, the Company knows of no material pending or threatened legal proceedings, or other proceedings contemplated by governmental authorities, that would have a material impact on it.
Environmental Matters. Under various federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal of, or remediation of, certain hazardous or toxic substances in, on, around, or under the property. While the Company currently has no knowledge of any material violation of environmental laws, ordinances, or regulations at any of the properties, there can be no assurance that areas of contamination will not be identified at any of its properties or that changes in environmental laws, regulations, or cleanup requirements would not result in material costs.

Restrictions on Taxable Dispositions. Seventeen properties, consisting of 3,559 apartment homes, are subject to restrictions on taxable dispositions under agreements entered into with some of the sellers or contributors of the properties and are effective for varying periods. Centerspace does not believe that the agreements materially affect the conduct of its business or its decisions whether to dispose of restricted properties during the restriction period because it generally holds these and other properties for investment purposes rather than for sale. In addition, where the Company deems it to be in the shareholders' best interests to dispose of such properties, it generally seeks to structure sales of such properties as tax-deferred transactions under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code. Otherwise, the Company may be required to provide tax indemnification payments to the parties to these agreements.
NOTE 11 • SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Share-based awards are provided to officers, non-officer employees, and trustees under the 2015 Incentive Plan approved by shareholders on September 15, 2015, as amended and restated on May 18, 2021 (the “2015 Incentive Plan”) which allows for awards in the form of cash, unrestricted and restricted common shares, stock options, stock appreciation rights, and RSUs up to an aggregate of 775,000 shares over the ten-year period in which the plan is in effect. Under the 2015 Incentive Plan, officers and non-officer employees may earn share awards under a long-term incentive plan, which is a forward-looking program that measures long-term performance over the stated performance period. These awards are payable to the extent deemed earned in shares. The terms of the long-term incentive awards granted under the revised program may vary from year to year.
2021 LTIP Awards
Awards granted to employees on January 1, 2021, consist of an aggregate of 6,410 time-based RSU awards, 19,224 performance RSUs based on total shareholder return (“TSR”), and 43,629 stock options. The time-based awards vest as to one-third of the shares on each of January 1, 2022, January 1, 2023, and January 1, 2024. The stock options vest as to 25 % on each of January 1, 2022, January 1, 2023, January 1, 2024, and January 1, 2025. The fair value of stock options was $ 7.383 per share and was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
2021
Exercise price $ 70.64
Risk-free rate 0.65 %
Expected term 6.25 years
Expected volatility 21.08 %
Dividend yield 3.963 %
The TSR performance RSUs are earned based on the Company’s TSR as compared to the FTSE Nareit Apartment Index over a forward looking three-year period. The maximum number of RSUs eligible to be earned is 38,448 RSUs, which is 200 % of the RSUs granted. Earned awards (if any) will fully vest as of the last day of the measurement period. These awards have market conditions in addition to service conditions that must be met for the awards to vest. Compensation expense is recognized ratably based on the grant date fair value, as determined using the Monte Carlo valuation model, regardless of whether the market conditions are achieved and the awards ultimately vest. Therefore, previously recorded compensation expense is not adjusted in the event that the market conditions are not achieved. The Company based the expected volatility on a weighted average of the historical volatility of the Company’s daily closing share price and a select peer average volatility, the risk-free interest rate on the interest rates on U.S. treasury bonds with a maturity equal to the remaining performance period of the award, and the expected term on the performance period of the award. The assumptions used to value the TSR performance RSUs were an expected volatility of 20.63 %, a risk-free interest rate of 0.17 %, and an expected life of 3 years. The share price at the grant date, January 1, 2021, was $ 70.64 per share.
Awards granted to trustees on May 18, 2021, consist of 6,061 time-based RSUs, which vest on May 18, 2022. These awards are classified as equity awards.
Share-Based Compensation Expense
Share-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated financial statements for all outstanding share-based awards was $ 1.5 million and $ 967,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
