NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Office Properties Income Trust and its subsidiaries, or OPI, we, us or our, are unaudited. Certain information and disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, or our 2020 Annual Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period have been included. All intercompany transactions and balances with or among our consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated. Our operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the condensed consolidated financial statements include purchase price allocations, useful lives of fixed assets and assessment of impairment of real estate and the related intangibles.
Note 2. Per Common Share Amounts
We calculate basic earnings per common share by dividing net income by the weighted average number of our common shares outstanding during the period. We calculate diluted earnings per share using the more dilutive of the two class method or the treasury stock method. Unvested share awards and other potentially dilutive common shares, together with the related impact on earnings, are considered when calculating diluted earnings per share. The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31,
2021 2020
Numerators:
Net income $ 37,860 $ 10,840
Income attributable to unvested participating securities ( 123 ) ( 15 )
Net income used in calculating earnings per share $ 37,737 $ 10,825
Denominators:
Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic 48,161 48,095
Effect of dilutive securities: unvested share awards (1)
35 —
Weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted 48,196 48,095
Net income per common share - basic $ 0.78 $ 0.23
Net income per common share - diluted $ 0.78 $ 0.23
(1) For the three months ended March 31, 2020, six unvested common shares were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been antidilutive .
Note 3. Real Estate Properties
As of March 31, 2021, our wholly owned properties were comprised of 180 properties containing a combined approximately 24,568,000 rentable square feet, with an aggregate undepreciated carrying value of $ 3,520,526 , including $ 45,745 classified as held for sale, and we had noncontrolling ownership interests of 51 % and 50 % in two unconsolidated joint ventures that own three properties containing a combined approximately 444,000 rentable square feet. We generally lease space at our properties on a gross lease, modified gross lease or net lease basis pursuant to fixed term contracts expiring between 2021 and 2040. Some of our leases generally require us to pay all or some property operating expenses and to provide all or most property management services. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we entered into 20 leases for approximately 575,000 rentable square feet for a weighted (by rentable square feet) average lease term of 5.4 years and we made commitments

(unaudited)
for approximately $ 7,145 of leasing related costs. As of March 31, 2021, we have estimated unspent leasing related obligations of $ 50,405 .
We regularly evaluate whether events or changes in circumstances have occurred that could indicate an impairment in the value of our long lived assets. If there is an indication that the carrying value of an asset is not recoverable, we estimate the projected undiscounted cash flows to determine if an impairment loss should be recognized. The future net undiscounted cash flows are subjective and are based in part on assumptions regarding hold periods, market rents and terminal capitalization rates. We determine the amount of any impairment loss by comparing the historical carrying value to estimated fair value. We estimate fair value through an evaluation of recent financial performance and projected discounted cash flows using standard industry valuation techniques. In addition to the consideration of impairment upon the events or changes in circumstances described above, we regularly evaluate the remaining lives of our long lived assets. If we change our estimate of the remaining lives, we allocate the carrying value of the affected assets over their revised remaining lives.
Acquisition Activities
As of April 28, 2021, we have entered into an agreement to acquire a property adjacent to a property we own in Boston, MA containing approximately 49,000 rentable square feet for $ 26,975 , excluding acquisition related costs. This acquisition is expected to occur before the end of the second quarter. However, this acquisition is subject to conditions; accordingly, we cannot be sure that we will complete this acquisition or that this acquisition will not be delayed or the terms will not change.
Disposition Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we sold two properties containing a combined approximately 321,000 rentable square feet for an aggregate sales price of $ 130,845 , excluding closing costs. The sales of these properties, as presented in the table below, do not represent significant dispositions, individually or in the aggregate, nor do they represent a strategic shift in our business. As a result, the results of operations of these properties are included in continuing operations through the date of sale in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

(2) The sale of this property was completed in April 2021.
(3) The agreement to sell this property was terminated in April 2021.
In addition, in April 2021 we entered into an agreement to sell a property located in Liverpool, NY containing approximately 38,000 rentable square feet for a sales price of $ 650 , excluding closing costs. This sale is expected to occur before the end of the second quarter of 2021. However, this sale is subject to conditions; accordingly, we cannot be sure that we will complete this sale or that this sale will not be delayed or the terms will not change.

Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
We own interests in two joint ventures that own three properties. We account for these investments under the equity method of accounting. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures consisted of the following:
OPI Carrying Value of Investments at
Joint Venture OPI Ownership March 31,
2021 December 31, 2020 Number of Properties Location Rentable Square Feet
Prosperity Metro Plaza 51 % $ 21,715 $ 21,888 2 Fairfax, VA 329,000
1750 H Street, NW 50 % 15,687 16,063 1 Washington, D.C. 115,000
Total $ 37,402 $ 37,951 3 444,000
The following table provides a summary of the mortgage debt of our two unconsolidated joint ventures:
Joint Venture Interest Rate (1)
Maturity Date Principal Balance at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (2)
Prosperity Metro Plaza 4.09 % 12/1/2029 $ 50,000
1750 H Street, NW 3.69 % 8/1/2024 32,000
Weighted Average / Total 3.93 % $ 82,000
(1) Includes the effect of mark to market purchase accounting.
(2) Reflects the entire balance of the debt secured by the properties and is not adjusted to reflect the interests in the joint ventures we do not own. None of the debt is recourse to us.
At March 31, 2021, the aggregate unamortized basis difference of our two unconsolidated joint ventures of $ 7,341 is primarily attributable to the difference between the amount we paid to purchase our interest in these joint ventures, including transaction costs, and the historical carrying value of the net assets of these joint ventures. This difference is being amortized over the remaining useful life of the related properties and the resulting amortization expense is included in equity in net losses of investees in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Note 4. Leases
Our leases provide for base rent payments and in addition may include variable payments. Rental income from operating leases, including any payments derived by index or market-based indices, is recognized on a straight line basis over the lease term when we have determined that the collectability of substantially all of the lease payments is probable. Some of our leases have options to extend or terminate the lease exercisable at the option of our tenants, which are considered when determining the lease term. In certain circumstances, some leases provide the tenant with the right to terminate if the legislature or other funding authority does not appropriate the funding necessary for the tenant to meet its lease obligations; we have determined the fixed non-cancelable lease term of these leases to be the full term of the lease because we believe the occurrence of early terminations to be a remote contingency based on both our historical experience and our assessments of the likelihood of lease cancellation on a separate lease basis.
We increased rental income to record revenue on a straight line basis by $ 5,357 and $ 5,583 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Rents receivable, excluding properties classified as held for sale, include $ 73,434 and $ 68,824 of straight line rent receivables at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
We do not include in our measurement of our lease receivables certain variable payments, including payments determined by changes in the index or market-based indices after the inception of the lease, certain tenant reimbursements and other income until the specific events that trigger the variable payments have occurred. Such payments totaled $ 18,860 and $ 19,746 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, of which tenant reimbursements totaled $ 17,803 and $ 18,622 , respectively.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, some of our tenants have requested rent assistance. As of April 26, 2021, we have granted temporary rent assistance totaling $ 2,483 to 18 tenants who represent approximately 3.2 % of our annualized rental income, as defined below in Note 5, as of March 31, 2021, pursuant to deferred payment plans. These tenants are obligated to
10

OFFICE PROPERTIES INCOME TRUST
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(dollars in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)
pay, in most cases, the deferred rent over a 12 -month period, all of which have commenced. We have elected to use the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, relief package regarding the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The FASB relief package provides entities with the option to account for lease concessions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic outside of the existing lease modification guidance if the resulting cash flows from the modified lease are substantially the same as or less than the original lease. Because the deferred rent amounts referenced above will be repaid, the cash flows from the respective leases are substantially the same as before the rent deferrals. The deferred amounts did not impact our operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2021, deferred payments totaling $ 411 are included in rents receivable in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Note 5. Concentration
Tenant and Credit Concentration
We define annualized rental income as the annualized contractual base rents from our tenants pursuant to our lease agreements as of the measurement date, plus straight line rent adjustments and estimated recurring expense reimbursements to be paid to us, and excluding lease value amortization. As of March 31, 2021, the U.S. government, 11 state governments and three other government tenants combined were responsible for approximately 36.3 % of our annualized rental income. As of March 31, 2020, the U.S. government, 10 state governments and two other government tenants combined were responsible for approximately 34.6 % of our annualized rental income. The U.S. government is our largest tenant by annualized rental income and represented approximately 25.9 % and 25.0 % of our annualized rental income as of March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Geographic Concentration
At March 31, 2021, our 180 wholly owned properties were located in 34 states and the District of Columbia. Properties located in California, Virginia, the District of Columbia, Texas and Maryland were responsible for 12.7 %, 12.7 %, 10.9 %, 7.9 % and 6.7 % of our annualized rental income as of March 31, 2021, respectively.
Note 6. Indebtedness
Our principal debt obligations at March 31, 2021 were: (1) $ 2,072,000 aggregate outstanding principal amount of senior unsecured notes; and (2) $ 170,198 aggregate outstanding principal amount of mortgage notes.
Our $ 750,000 revolving credit facility is governed by a credit agreement, or our credit agreement, with a syndicate of institutional lenders that includes a feature under which the maximum aggregate borrowing availability may be increased to up to $ 1,950,000 in certain circumstances.
Our $ 750,000 revolving credit facility is available for general business purposes, including acquisitions. The maturity date of our revolving credit facility is January 31, 2023 and, subject to our payment of an extension fee and meeting certain other conditions, we have the option to extend the stated maturity date of our revolving credit facility by two additional six month periods. We can borrow, repay and reborrow funds available under our revolving credit facility until maturity and no principal repayment is due until maturity. We are required to pay interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a premium, which was 110 basis points per annum at March 31, 2021, on the amount outstanding under our revolving credit facility, if any. We also pay a facility fee on the total amount of lending commitments under our revolving credit facility, which was 25 basis points per annum at March 31, 2021. Both the interest rate premium and facility fee are subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the annual interest rate payable on borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 1.2 %. We did not borrow any funds under our revolving credit facility during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The weighted average annual interest rate for borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 2.6 % for the three months ended March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2021 and April 28, 2021, we had no amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility and $ 750,000 available for borrowing.
Our credit agreement and senior unsecured notes indentures and their supplements provide for acceleration of payment of all amounts due thereunder upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default, such as, in the case of our credit agreement, a change of control of us, which includes The RMR Group LLC, or RMR LLC, ceasing to act as our business and property manager. Our credit agreement and senior unsecured notes indentures and their supplements also contain covenants, including covenants that restrict our ability to incur debts, require us to comply with certain financial covenants and, in the case of our credit agreement, restrict our ability to make distributions under certain circumstances. We believe we were in

(unaudited)
compliance with the terms and conditions of the respective covenants under our credit agreement and senior unsecured notes indentures and their supplements at March 31, 2021.
At March 31, 2021, six of our properties with an aggregate net book value of $ 279,559 were encumbered by mortgage notes with an aggregate principal amount of $ 170,198 . Our mortgage notes are non-recourse, subject to certain limited exceptions and do not contain any material financial covenants.
Note 7. Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
The following table presents certain of our assets measured at fair value at March 31, 2021, categorized by the level of inputs, as defined in the fair value hierarchy under GAAP, used in the valuation of each asset:
Fair Value at Reporting Date Using
Description Total Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements Assets
Assets of properties held for sale (1)
$ 49,700 $ — $ 49,700 $ —
(1) We recorded impairment charges of $ 7,660 to reduce the carrying value of two properties that are classified as held for sale in our condensed consolidated balance sheet to their estimated fair value, less estimated costs to sell of $ 2,000 , based upon negotiated sales prices with third party buyers (Level 2 inputs as defined in the fair value hierarchy under GAAP).

We estimated the fair value of our senior unsecured notes (except for our senior unsecured notes due 2046 and 2050) using an average of the bid and ask price of the notes (Level 2 inputs as defined in the fair value hierarchy under GAAP) as of the measurement date. We estimated the fair value of our senior unsecured notes due 2046 and 2050 based on the closing price on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, or Nasdaq, (Level 1 inputs as defined in the fair value hierarchy under GAAP) as of the measurement date. We estimated the fair values of our mortgage notes payable using discounted cash flow analyses and currently prevailing market rates (Level 3 inputs as defined in the fair value hierarchy under GAAP) as of the measurement date. Because Level 3 inputs are unobservable, our estimated fair values may differ materially from the actual fair values.
