REALTY INCOME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2023
(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
Realty Income Corporation (“Realty Income,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) was founded in 1969 and is organized as a Maryland corporation. We invest in commercial real estate and have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"). We are listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol “O”.
As of June 30, 2023, we owned or held interests in a diversified portfolio of 13,118 properties located in all 50 states of the United States ("U.S."), Puerto Rico, the United Kingdom ("U.K."), Spain, Italy, and Ireland, with approximately 255.5 million square feet of leasable space.
Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared from our books and records in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily an indication of the results that may be expected for the entire year. Readers of this quarterly report should refer to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K , as certain disclosures that would substantially duplicate those contained in the audited financial statements have not been included in this report. The U.S. dollar (“USD”) is our reporting currency. Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts are expressed in USD.
For our consolidated subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the USD, we translate their financial statements into USD at the time we consolidate those subsidiaries’ financial statements. Generally, assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. The resulting translation adjustments are included in 'Accumulated other comprehensive income' ("AOCI") in the consolidated balance sheets. Certain balance sheet items, primarily equity and capital-related accounts, are reflected at the historical exchange rate. Income statement accounts are translated using the average exchange rate for the period.
We and certain of our consolidated subsidiaries have intercompany and third-party debt that is not denominated in our functional currency. When the debt is remeasured to the functional currency of the entity, a gain or loss can result. The resulting adjustment is reflected in 'Foreign currency and derivative (loss) gain, net' in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Principles of Consolidation. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Realty Income and all other entities in which we have a controlling financial interest. We evaluate whether we have a controlling financial interest in an entity in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 810, Consolidation.
Voting interest entities are entities considered to have sufficient equity at risk and which the equity holders have the obligation to absorb losses, the right to receive residual returns and the right to make decisions about the entity’s activities. We consolidate voting interest entities in which we have a controlling financial interest, which we typically have through holding of a majority of the entity’s voting equity interests.
Variable interest entities ("VIEs") are entities that lack sufficient equity at risk or where the equity holders either do not have the obligation to absorb losses, do not have the right to receive residual returns, do not have the right to make decisions about the entity’s activities, or some combination of the above. A controlling financial interest in a VIE is present when an entity has a variable interest, or a combination of variable interests, that provides the entity with (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. An entity that meets both conditions above is deemed the primary beneficiary and consolidates the VIE. We reassess our initial evaluation of whether an entity is a VIE when certain reconsideration events occur. We reassess our determination of whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE on an ongoing basis based on current facts and circumstances.

Table of Contents
At June 30, 2023, Realty Income, L.P. and certain investments, including investments in joint ventures, are considered VIEs in which we were deemed the primary beneficiary based on our controlling financial interests. Below is a summary of selected financial data of consolidated VIEs included in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022 (in thousands):
June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
Net real estate
$ 2,432,712 $ 920,032
Total assets
$ 3,165,836 $ 1,082,346
Total liabilities
$ 159,014 $ 60,127
The portion of a consolidated entity not owned by us is recorded as a noncontrolling interest. Noncontrolling interests are reflected on our consolidated balance sheets as a component of equity. Noncontrolling interests that were created or assumed as part of a business combination or asset acquisition were recognized at fair value as of the date of the transaction (see note 9, Noncontrolling Interests ).
Reclassification . Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Value-added tax receivable is now included in 'Other assets, net', in the consolidated balance sheets. Previously, this was categorized as 'Accounts receivable, net' in the consolidated balance sheets.
Use of Estimates . The consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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.
Segment Reporting. We report our results in a single reportable segment, which reflects how our chief operating decision maker allocates resources and assesses our performance.
Income Taxes. We have elected to be taxed as a REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. We believe we have qualified and continue to qualify as a REIT. Under the REIT operating structure, we are permitted to deduct dividends paid to our stockholders in determining our taxable income. Assuming our dividends equal or exceed our taxable net income in the U.S., we generally will not be required to pay U.S. income taxes on such income. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, except for federal income taxes of our taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRS"). A TRS is a subsidiary of a REIT that is subject to federal, state and local income taxes, as applicable. Our use of TRS entities enables us to engage in certain business activities while complying with the REIT qualification requirements and to retain any income generated by these businesses for reinvestment without the requirement to distribute those earnings. For our international territories, we are liable for taxes in the United Kingdom and Spain. Accordingly, provisions have been made for U.K. and Spain income taxes. Therefore, the income taxes recorded on our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income represent amounts accrued or paid by Realty Income and its subsidiaries for U.S. income taxes on our TRS entities, city and state income and franchise taxes, and income taxes for the U.K. and Spain.
Earnings and profits that determine the taxability of distributions to stockholders differ from net income reported for financial reporting purposes primarily due to differences in the estimated useful lives and methods used to compute depreciation and the carrying value (basis) of the investments in properties for tax purposes, among other things.
We regularly analyze our various international, federal and state filing positions and only recognize the income tax effect in our financial statements when certain criteria regarding uncertain income tax positions have been met. We believe that our income tax positions would more likely than not be sustained upon examination by all relevant taxing authorities. Therefore, no provisions for uncertain tax positions have been recorded on our consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents
Lease Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable. The majority of our leases are accounted for as operating leases. Under this method, leases that have fixed and determinable rent increases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Any rental revenue contingent upon our client’s sales, or percentage rent, is recognized only after our client exceeds their sales breakpoint. Rental increases based upon changes in the consumer price indexes are recognized only after the changes in the indexes have occurred and are then applied according to the lease agreements. Contractually obligated rental revenue from our clients for recoverable real estate taxes and operating expenses are included in contractually obligated reimbursements by our clients, a component of rental revenue, in the period when such costs are incurred. Taxes and operating expenses paid directly by our clients are recorded on a net basis.
Other revenue includes certain property-related revenue not included in rental revenue and interest income recognized on financing receivables for certain leases with above-market terms.
We assess the probability of collecting substantially all of the lease payments to which we are entitled under the original lease contract as required under Topic 842, Leases . We assess the collectability of our future lease payments based on an analysis of creditworthiness, economic trends and other facts and circumstances related to the applicable clients. If we conclude the collection of substantially all lease payments under a lease is less than probable, rental revenue recognized for that lease is limited to cash received going forward, existing operating lease receivables, including those related to straight-line rental revenue, must be written off as an adjustment to rental revenue, and no further operating lease receivables are recorded for that lease until such future determination is made that substantially all lease payments under that lease are now considered probable. If we subsequently conclude that the collection of substantially all lease payments under a lease is probable, a reversal of lease receivables previously written off is recognized.
Goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized, but is subject to impairment reviews annually, or more frequently if necessary. Goodwill is qualitatively assessed to determine whether a quantitative impairment assessment is necessary. Impairment is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. If the carrying value of the asset exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss is recognized, and the asset is written down to its estimated fair value. We perform our annual goodwill impairment assessment as of June 30. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were no impairments of goodwill.
Concentration of Credit Risk. There were no clients who accounted for more than more than 10% of our total revenue for each of the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements. The Company reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they were either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents
(1) The initial weighted average cash lease yield for a property is generally computed as estimated contractual first year cash net operating income, which, in the case of a net leased property, is equal to the aggregate cash base rent for the first full year of each lease, divided by the total cost of the property. Since it is possible that a client could default on the payment of contractual rent (defined as the monthly aggregate cash amount charged to clients, inclusive of monthly base rent receivables), we cannot provide assurance that the actual return on the funds invested will remain at the percentages listed above. Contractual net operating income used in the calculation of initial weighted average cash lease yield includes approximately $ 1.5 million received as settlement credits as reimbursement of free rent periods for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
In the case of a property under development or expansion, the contractual lease rate is generally fixed such that rent varies based on the actual total investment in order to provide a fixed rate of return. When the lease does not provide for a fixed rate of return on a property under development or expansion, the initial weighted average cash lease yield is computed as follows: estimated cash net operating income (determined by the lease) for the first full year of each lease, divided by our projected total investment in the property, including land, construction and capitalized interest costs.
(2) Includes £ 8.7 million of investments in three U.K. development properties and € 10.2 million of investment in one Spain development property, converted at the applicable exchange rates on the funding dates.
(3) Our clients occupying the new properties are 89.9 % retail and 10.1 % industrial based on annualized contractual rent. Approximately 26 % of the annualized contractual rent generated from acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2023 is from our investment grade rated clients, their subsidiaries or affiliated companies.
The aggregate purchase price of the assets acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2023 has been allocated as follows (in millions):

(1) Sterling-denominated land includes £ 7.6 million of right of use assets under long-term ground leases.
(2) The weighted average amortization period for acquired lease intangible assets is 11.6 years.
(3) USD-denominated other assets consist entirely of financing receivables with above-market terms. Sterling-denominated other assets consist of £ 11.1 million of financing receivables with above-market terms and £ 48.6 million of right-of-use assets accounted for as finance leases.
(4) The weighted average amortization period for acquired lease intangible liabilities is 16.8 years.
(5) USD-denominated other liabilities consist entirely of deferred rent on certain below-market leases.
The properties acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2023 generated total revenues of $ 70.8 million and net income of $ 32.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
B. Investments in Existing Properties
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we capitalized costs of $ 31.9 million on existing properties in our portfolio, consisting of $ 26.3 million for non-recurring building improvements, $ 5.5 million for re-leasing costs, and $ 0.1 million for recurring capital expenditures. In comparison, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, we capitalized costs of $ 37.8 million on existing properties in our portfolio, consisting of $ 31.8 million for non-recurring building improvements, $ 3.2 million for re-leasing costs, and $ 2.8 million for recurring capital expenditures.
C. Properties with Existing Leases
The value of the in-place and above-market leases is recorded to 'Lease intangible assets, net' on our consolidated balance sheets, and the value of the below-market leases is recorded to 'Lease intangible liabilities, net' on our consolidated balance sheets.
The values of the in-place leases are amortized as depreciation and amortization expense. The amounts amortized to expense for all of our in-place leases, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 were $ 319.4 million and $ 318.3 million, respectively.
The values of the above-market and below-market leases are amortized over the term of the respective leases, including any bargain renewal options, as an adjustment to rental revenue in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The amounts amortized as a net decrease to rental revenue for capitalized above-market and below-market leases for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 were $ 86.8 million and $ 48.6 million, respectively. If a lease was to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts relating to that lease would be recorded to revenue or expense, as appropriate.

4. Revolving Credit Facility and Commercial Paper Programs
A. Credit Facility
We have a $ 4.25 billion unsecured revolving multicurrency credit facility that matures in June 2026, includes two six-month extensions that can be exercised at our option, and allows us to borrow in up to 14 currencies, including USD. Our revolving credit facility also has a $ 1.0 billion expansion option, which is subject to obtaining lender commitments. Under our revolving credit facility, our current investment grade credit ratings provide for USD borrowings at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), plus 0.725 % with a SOFR adjustment charge of 0.10 % and a revolving credit facility fee of 0.125 %, for all-in pricing of 0.95 % over SOFR, British Pound Sterling at the Sterling Overnight Indexed Average (“SONIA”), plus 0.725 % with a SONIA adjustment charge of 0.0326 % and a revolving credit facility fee of 0.125 %, for all-in pricing of 0.8826 % over SONIA, and Euro Borrowings at one-month Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”), plus 0.725 %, and a revolving credit facility fee of 0.125 %, for all-in pricing of 0.85 % over one-month EURIBOR.
As of June 30, 2023, we had a borrowing capacity of $ 3.4 billion available on our revolving credit facility (subject to customary conditions to borrowing) and an outstanding balance of $ 867.5 million, comprised of £ 644.0 million Sterling and € 45.0 million Euro borrowings, as compared to an outstanding balance at December 31, 2022 of $ 2.0 billion, comprised of € 1.8 billion Euro and £ 70.0 million Sterling borrowings.
The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 4.6 % and 1.5 % during the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. At June 30, 2023, our weighted average interest rate on borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility was 5.6 %. Our revolving credit facility is subject to various leverage and interest coverage ratio limitations, and at June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with the covenants under our revolving credit facility.
As of June 30, 2023, credit facility origination costs of $ 14.7 million are included in other assets, net, as compared to $ 17.2 million at December 31, 2022, on our consolidated balance sheets. These costs are being amortized over the remaining term of our revolving credit facility.
B. Commercial Paper Programs
We have a USD-denominated unsecured commercial paper program, under which we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding of $ 1.5 billion, as well as a Euro-denominated unsecured commercial paper program, which permits us to issue additional unsecured commercial
-11-
Table of Contents
notes up to a maximum aggregate amount of $ 1.5 billion (or foreign currency equivalent). Our Euro-denominated unsecured commercial paper program may be issued in USD or various foreign currencies, including but not limited to, Euros, Sterling, Swiss Francs, Yen, Canadian Dollars, and Australian Dollars, in each case, pursuant to customary terms in the European commercial paper market.
The commercial paper ranks on a parity in right of payment with all of our other unsecured senior indebtedness outstanding from time to time, including borrowings under our revolving credit facility, our term loans and our outstanding senior unsecured notes. Proceeds from commercial paper borrowings are used for general corporate purposes.
As of June 30, 2023, the balance of borrowings outstanding under our commercial paper programs was $ 122.7 million, consisting entirely of USD borrowings, as compared to $ 701.8 million outstanding commercial paper borrowings, including € 361.0 million of Euro-denominated borrowings, at December 31, 2022. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper programs was 4.5 % and 0.8 % for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, our weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper programs was 5.4 %. We use our $ 4.25 billion revolving credit facility as a liquidity backstop for the repayment of the notes issued under the commercial paper programs. The commercial paper borrowings generally carry a term of less than a year .
5. Term Loans
In January 2023, we entered into a term loan agreement, permitting us to incur multicurrency term loans, up to an aggregate of $ 1.5 billion in total borrowings. As of June 30, 2023, we had $ 1.1 billion in multicurrency borrowings, including $ 90.0 million, £ 705.0 million, and € 85.0 million in outstanding borrowings. The 2023 term loans initially mature in January 2024 and include two 12-month maturity extensions that can be exercised at our option. Our A3/A- credit ratings provide for a borrowing rate of 80 basis points over the applicable benchmark rate, which includes adjusted SOFR for USD-denominated loans, adjusted SONIA for Sterling-denominated loans, and EURIBOR for Euro-denominated loans. In conjunction with our 2023 term loans, we entered into interest rate swaps which fix our per annum interest rate. As of June 30, 2023, the effective interest rate, after giving effect to the interest rate swaps, was 5.0 %.
We also have a $ 250.0 million senior unsecured term loan, which matures in March 2024. In conjunction with this term loan, we also entered into an interest rate swap. As of June 30, 2023, the effective interest rate on this term loan, after giving effect to the interest rate swap, was 3.8 %.
At June 30, 2023, deferred financing costs of $ 4.4 million are included net of the term loans principal balance, as compared to $ 0.2 million related to our $ 250.0 million term loan at December 31, 2022, on our consolidated balance sheets. These costs are being amortized over the remaining term of the term loans. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with the covenants contained in the term loans.
6. Mortgages Payable
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we made $ 8.1 million in principal payments, including the full repayment of one mortgage for $ 5.7 million. No mortgages were assumed during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Assumed mortgages are secured by the properties on which the debt was placed and are considered non-recourse debt with limited customary exceptions which vary from loan to loan.
Our mortgages contain customary covenants, such as limiting our ability to further mortgage each applicable property or to discontinue insurance coverage without the prior consent of the lender. At June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with these covenants.
The balance of our deferred financing costs, which are classified as part of 'Mortgages payable, net', on our consolidated balance sheets, was $ 0.7 million at June 30, 2023 and $ 0.8 million at December 31, 2022. These costs are being amortized over the remaining term of each mortgage.

Under our current ATM program, we may offer and sell up to 120.0 million shares of common stock (1) by us to, or through, a consortium of banks acting as our sales agents or (2) by a consortium of banks acting as forward sellers on behalf of any forward purchasers contemplated thereunder, in each case by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the NYSE under the ticker symbol "O" at prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Upon settlement, subject to certain exceptions, we may elect, in our sole discretion, to cash settle or net share settle all or any portion of our obligations under any forward sale agreement, in which cases we may not receive any proceeds (in the case of cash settlement) or will not receive any proceeds (in the case of net share settlement), and we may owe cash (in the case of cash settlement) or shares of our common stock (in the case of net share settlement) to the relevant forward purchaser. As of June 30, 2023, we had 24.3 million additional shares remaining for future issuance under our ATM program. We anticipate maintaining the availability of our ATM program in the future, including the replenishment of authorized shares issuable thereunder.

(1) During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, 20.7 million and 46.3 million shares were sold, respectively, and 35.5 million and 48.1 million shares were settled pursuant to forward sale confirmations, respectively. In addition, as of June 30, 2023, 4.9 million shares of common stock subject to forward sale confirmations have been executed, but not settled, at a weighted average initial price of $ 59.33 per share. We currently expect to fully settle forward sale agreements outstanding by September 30, 2023, representing $ 287.0 million in net proceeds, for which the weighted average forward price at June 30, 2023 was $ 58.72 per share.
B. Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan ("DRSPP")
Our DRSPP, provides our common stockholders, as well as new investors, with a convenient and economical method of purchasing our common stock and reinvesting their distributions. Our DRSPP also allows our current stockholders to buy additional shares of common stock by reinvesting all or a portion of their distributions. Our DRSPP authorizes up to 26.0 million common shares to be issued. At June 30, 2023, we had 11.1 million shares remaining for future issuance under our DRSPP program.
The following table outlines common stock issuances pursuant to our DRSPP program (dollars in millions):

10. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (the exit price).
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , sets forth a fair value hierarchy that categorizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and lowest priority to unobservable inputs. Categorization within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
• Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets
Fair value measurements are classified as Level 1 if their value is observable in an active market. Such instruments are valued by reference to unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets where the quoted price is readily available, and the price represents actual and regularly occurring market transactions. An active market is one in which transactions occur with sufficient volume and frequency to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
• Level 2 – Valuation Technique Using Observable Inputs
Fair value measurements classified as Level 2 are valued using quoted prices for identical instruments in markets that are not considered to be active, or quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the financial asset or liability.
• Level 3 – Valuation Technique Using Significant Unobservable Inputs
Fair value measurements are classified as Level 3 if their valuation incorporates significant inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Such inputs are generally determined based on observable inputs of a similar nature, historical observations on the level of the inputs, or other analytical techniques.
We evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from period to period. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets. We have not historically had changes in classifications and do not expect that changes in classifications between levels will be frequent.
A. Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets
The fair value of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, escrow deposits, loans receivable, accounts payable, distributions payable, line of credit payable and commercial paper borrowings, and other liabilities approximate their carrying value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, due to their short-term nature. The aggregate fair value of our term loans approximates carrying value due to the frequent repricing of the variable interest rate charged on the borrowing.

Mortgages payable (1)
$ 836.3 $ 812.5 $ 842.3 $ 810.4

$ 16,383.2 $ 14,553.6 $ 14,114.2 $ 12,522.8
(1) Excludes non-cash net premiums recorded on the mortgages payable. The unamortized balance of these net premiums was $ 6.0 million at June 30, 2023, and $ 12.4 million at December 31, 2022. Also excludes deferred financing costs of $ 0.7 million at June 30, 2023, and $ 0.8 million at December 31, 2022.
(2) Excludes non-cash net premiums recorded on notes payable. The unamortized balance of the net premiums was $ 168.8 million at June 30, 2023, and $ 224.6 million at December 31, 2022. Also excludes deferred financing costs of $ 71.8 million and basis adjustment on interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges of $ 4.6 million at June 30, 2023, and $ 60.7 million of deferred financing costs at December 31, 2022.
The estimated fair values of our mortgages payable and private senior notes payable have been calculated by discounting the future cash flows using an interest rate based upon the relevant forward interest rate curve, plus an applicable credit-adjusted spread. Because this methodology includes unobservable inputs that reflect our own internal assumptions and calculations, the measurement of estimated fair values related to our mortgages payable is categorized as level three on the three-level valuation hierarchy.
The estimated fair values of our publicly-traded senior notes and bonds payable are based upon indicative market prices and recent trading activity of our senior notes and bonds payable. Because this methodology includes inputs that are less observable by the public and are not necessarily reflected in active markets, the measurement of the estimated fair values related to our notes and bonds payable is categorized as level two on the three-level valuation hierarchy.
B. Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
For derivative assets and liabilities, we may utilize interest rate swaps, interest rate swaptions, and forward-starting swaps to manage interest rate risk, and cross-currency swaps, currency exchange swaps, and foreign currency forwards to manage foreign currency risk. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, spot and forward rates, as well as option volatility .
Derivative fair values also include credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we have considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees.
Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within level two on the three-level valuation hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize level three inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by ourselves and our counterparties. However, at June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, we assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, we determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified as level two.
C. Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
Impairment of Real Estate Investments
Certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and are subject to fair value adjustments only under certain circumstances, such as when an impairment write-down occurs.
Depending on impairment triggering events during the applicable period, impairments are typically recorded for properties sold, in the process of being sold, vacant, in bankruptcy, or experiencing difficulties with collection of rent.

The following table summarizes our provisions for impairment on real estate investments during the periods indicated below (in millions):
Three months ended

Carrying value prior to impairment $ 97.0 $ 64.5 $ 125.5 $ 98.2
Less: total provisions for impairment ( 29.8 ) ( 7.7 ) ( 43.0 ) ( 14.7 )
Carrying value after impairment $ 67.2 $ 56.8 $ 82.5 $ 83.5
The valuation of impaired assets is determined using valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions and purchase offers received from third parties, which are Level 3 inputs. We may consider a single valuation technique or multiple valuation techniques, as appropriate, when estimating the fair value of its real estate. Estimating future cash flows is highly subjective and estimates can differ materially from actual results.
11. Derivative Instruments
In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to economic risks from interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We may enter into derivative financial instruments to offset these underlying economic risks.
Derivative Designated as Hedging Instruments - Cash Flow Hedges
In order to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with interest payments on intercompany loans denominated in British Pound Sterling ("GBP") and Euro ("EUR"), we have a hedging strategy to enter into foreign currency forward contracts to sell GBP, USD, and EUR and buy EUR, USD, and GBP. These foreign currency forwards are designated as cash flow hedges. Forward points on the forward contracts are included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Amounts reported in other comprehensive income related to foreign currency derivative contracts will be reclassified to other gain and (loss) in the same period during which the hedged forecasted transactions affect earnings.
To add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements associated with our term loans, we executed variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. The interest rate swaps are recorded on the consolidated balances sheets at fair value. Changes to fair value are recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income, or AOCI, and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.
To mitigate the impact of fluctuating interest rates, we have also entered into interest rate swaption agreements, structured as a swaption corridor, in anticipation of issuing USD denominated bonds. Interest rate swaption corridors are a combination of two swaption positions, whereby we purchase a payer swaption, which is an option that allows us to enter into a swap where we will pay the fixed rate and receive the floating rate of the swap, and sell a payer swaption, which is an option that provides the counterparty with the right to enter into a swap where we will receive the fixed rate and pay the floating rate of the swap. For the swaption corridor entered into during March 2023, the combination of purchasing the payer swaption and selling the swaption resulted in a premium being paid of $ 7.6 million. The interest rate swaptions are designated as cash flow hedges. Changes in fair value of the swaptions have been recorded in AOCI.
Derivative Designated as Hedging Instruments - Fair Value Hedges
Periodically, we enter into and designate fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps as fair value hedges. The purpose of these swaps is to manage interest rate risk by managing our mix of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. These swaps involve the receipt of fixed-rate amounts for variable interest rate payments over the life of the swaps without exchange of the underlying principal amount.
We also designate some of our cross-currency swaps as fair value hedges. The purpose of these contracts is to hedge foreign currency risk associated with changes in spot rates on foreign-denominated debt. For these hedges, we have elected to exclude the change in fair value of the cross-currency swaps related to both time value and cross-currency basis spread from the assessment of hedge effectiveness (the "excluded component"). Changes in the fair value of the cross-currency swaps attributable to changes in the spot rates on the final notional exchanges and changes in the value of the hedged assets due to changes in the spot rates are recorded in 'Foreign currency

and derivative (loss) gain, net'. Changes in the fair value of the cross-currency swaps attributable to the excluded components are recorded to Other comprehensive income and will be recognized in Foreign currency and derivative (loss) gain, net on a systematic and rational basis, as net cash settlements and interest accruals on the respective cross currency swaps occur, over the remaining life of the hedging instruments.
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
We enter into foreign currency exchange swap agreements to reduce the effects of currency exchange rate fluctuations between the USD, our reporting currency, and GBP and EUR. These derivative contracts generally mature within one year and are not designated as hedge instruments for accounting purposes. As the currency exchange swap is not accounted for as a hedging instrument, the change in fair value is recorded in earnings through the caption entitled 'Foreign currency and derivative (loss) gain, net' in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

12. Lessor Operating Leases
At June 30, 2023, we owned or held interests in 13,118 properties. Of the 13,118 properties, 12,882 , or 98.2 %, are single-client properties, and the remaining are multi-client properties. At June 30, 2023, 137 properties were available for lease or sale. The majority of our leases are accounted for as operating leases.
Substantially all of our leases are net leases where our client pays or reimburses us for property taxes and assessments and carries insurance coverage for public liability, property damage, fire and extended coverage.
Rent based on a percentage of our client's gross sales, or percentage rent, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 was $ 1.7 million, and $ 2.2 million, respectively. Percentage rent for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 was $ 5.8 million, and $ 6.0 million, respectively.

14. Net Income per Common Share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders, plus income attributable to dilutive shares and convertible common units for the period, by the weighted average number of common shares that would have been outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the reporting period.

A. Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we granted 219,951 shares of common stock under the 2021 Plan. This included 40,000 total shares of restricted stock granted to the independent members of our Board of Directors in connection with our annual awards in May 2023, 20,000 shares of which vested immediately and 20,000 shares of which vest in equal parts over a three-year service period. Our restricted stock awards granted to employees vest over a service period not exceeding four-years .
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we also granted 14,876 restricted stock units, all of which vest over a four-year service period.
As of June 30, 2023, the remaining unamortized share-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards and units totaled $ 21.7 million, which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the service period of each applicable award. The amount of share-based compensation is based on the fair value of the stock at the grant date.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we granted 193,868 performance shares, as well as dividend equivalent rights, to our executive officers. The performance shares are earned based on our Total Shareholder Return (TSR) performance relative to select industry indices and peer groups as well as achievement of certain operating metrics, and vest 50 % on the first and second January 1 after the end of the three-year performance period, subject to continued service.
As of June 30, 2023, the remaining share-based compensation expense related to the performance shares totaled $ 24.3 million. The performance shares are being recognized on a tranche-by-tranche basis over the service period. The fair value of the performance shares was estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo Simulation model.
17. Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, we are party to various legal actions which we believe are routine in nature and incidental to the operation of our business. We believe that the outcome of the proceedings will not have a material adverse effect upon our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In addition, as of June 30, 2023, we had committed $ 764.9 million under construction contracts related to development projects, which have estimated rental revenue commencement dates between July 2023 and July 2024.
