1.    Organization and Basis of Presentation
Organization

JBG SMITH Properties ("JBG SMITH") was organized by Vornado Realty Trust ("Vornado" or "former parent") as a Maryland real estate investment trust ("REIT") on October 27, 2016 (capitalized on November 22, 2016). JBG SMITH was formed for the purpose of receiving, via the spin-off on July 17, 2017 (the "Separation"), substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Vornado’s Washington, D.C. segment, which operated as Vornado / Charles E. Smith, (the "Vornado Included Assets"). On July 18, 2017, JBG SMITH acquired the management business and certain assets and liabilities (the "JBG Assets") of The JBG Companies ("JBG") (the "Combination"). The Separation and the Combination are collectively referred to as the "Formation Transaction." Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to "we," "us," and "our," refer to the Vornado Included Assets (our predecessor and accounting acquirer) for periods prior to the Separation and to JBG SMITH for periods after the Separation. References to "our share" refers to our ownership percentage of consolidated and unconsolidated assets in real estate ventures. Substantially all of our assets are held by, and our operations are conducted through, JBG SMITH Properties LP ("JBG SMITH LP"), our operating partnership. As of June 30, 2018, we, as its sole general partner, controlled JBG SMITH LP and owned 85.6% of its common limited partnership units ("OP Units").

Prior to the Separation from Vornado, JBG SMITH was a wholly owned subsidiary of Vornado and had no material assets or operations. Our operations are presented as if the transfer of the Vornado Included Assets had been consummated prior to all historical periods presented in the accompanying consolidated and combined financial statements at the carrying amounts of such assets and liabilities reflected in Vornado’s books and records. The assets and liabilities of the JBG Assets and subsequent results of operations and cash flows are reflected in our consolidated and combined financial statements beginning on the date of the Combination.
We own and operate a portfolio of high-quality office and multifamily assets, many of which are amenitized with ancillary retail. Our portfolio reflects our longstanding strategy of owning and operating assets within Metro-served submarkets in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area that have high barriers to entry and key urban amenities, including being within walking distance of a Metro station. 
As of June 30, 2018, our Operating Portfolio consists of 67 operating assets comprising 48 office assets totaling over 13.7 million square feet (11.8 million square feet at our share), 15 multifamily assets totaling 6,307 units (4,523 units at our share) and four other assets totaling approximately 765,000 square feet (348,000 square feet at our share). Additionally, we have (i) eight assets under construction comprising three office assets totaling approximately 774,000 square feet (542,000 square feet at our share), four multifamily assets totaling 1,476 units (1,282 units at our share) and one other asset totaling approximately 41,100 square feet (4,100 square feet at our share); and (ii) 42 future development assets totaling approximately 20.7 million square feet (17.2 million square feet at our share) of estimated potential development density.
Our revenues are derived primarily from leases with office and multifamily tenants, including fixed rents and reimbursements from tenants for certain expenses such as real estate taxes, property operating expenses, and repairs and maintenance. In addition, we have a third-party real estate services business that provides fee-based real estate services to the legacy funds (the "JBG Legacy Funds") formerly organized by JBG and other third parties.

combined financial statements do not contain certain information required in annual financial statements and notes as required under GAAP. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. These condensed consolidated and combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The accompanying condensed consolidated and combined financial statements include the accounts of JBG SMITH and our wholly owned subsidiaries and those other entities, including JBG SMITH LP, in which we have a controlling financial interest, including where we have been determined to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). See Note 5 for additional information on our VIEs. The portions of the equity and net income of consolidated subsidiaries that are not attributable to JBG SMITH are presented separately as amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests in our condensed consolidated and combined financial statements.
References to the financial statements refer to our condensed consolidated and combined financial statements as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. References to the balance sheets refer to our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. References to the statements of operations refer to our condensed consolidated and combined statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. References to the statements of cash flows refer to our condensed consolidated and combined statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
Formation Transaction
JBG SMITH and the Vornado Included Assets were under common control of Vornado for all periods prior to the Separation. The transfer of the Vornado Included Assets from Vornado to JBG SMITH was completed prior to the Separation, at net book values (historical carrying amounts) carved out from Vornado’s books and records. For purposes of the formation of JBG SMITH, the Vornado Included Assets were designated as the predecessor and the accounting acquirer of the JBG Assets. Consequently, the financial statements of JBG SMITH, as set forth herein, represent a continuation of the financial information of the Vornado Included Assets as the predecessor and accounting acquirer such that the historical financial information included herein as of any date or for any periods on or prior to the completion of the Combination represents the pre-Combination financial information of the Vornado Included Assets. The financial statements reflect the common shares as of the date of the Separation as outstanding for all periods prior to July 17, 2017. The acquisition of the JBG Assets completed subsequently by JBG SMITH was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method whereby identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at acquisition-date fair values and income and cash flows from the operations were consolidated into the financial statements of JBG SMITH commencing July 18, 2017. Consequently, the financial statements for the periods before and after the Formation Transaction are not directly comparable.
The accompanying financial statements as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 include our consolidated accounts. The accompanying financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 include the Vornado Included Assets. Therefore, our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition set forth in this report for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of our future results of operations, cash flows or financial condition as an independent, publicly traded company.
The historical financial results for the Vornado Included Assets reflect charges for certain corporate costs allocated by the former parent, which were based on either actual costs incurred or a proportion of costs estimated to be applicable, to the Vornado Included Assets based on an analysis of key metrics, including total revenues. Such costs do not necessarily reflect what the actual costs would have been if JBG SMITH had been operating as a separate standalone public company. See Note 16 for additional information.
The total revenue and net loss of the JBG Assets for the three months ended June 30, 2018 included in our statements of operations was $45.4 million and $22.6 million. The total revenue and net loss of the JBG Assets for the six months ended June 30, 2018 included in our statements of operations was $93.6 million and $39.3 million.
The following pro forma information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 is presented as if the Formation Transaction had occurred on January 1, 2017. This pro forma information is based upon historical financial statements, adjusted for certain factually supported items directly related to the Formation Transaction. This pro forma information does not purport to represent what the actual results of our operations would have been, nor does it purport to predict the results of operations of future periods. The pro forma information was adjusted to exclude transaction and other costs of $5.2 million and $11.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017

As a result of finalizing our fair value estimates used in the purchase price allocation related to the Combination, we adjusted the fair value of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed consisting of a decrease of $468,000 to investments in and advances to unconsolidated real estate ventures, an increase of $4.7 million to lease assumption liabilities and an increase of $2.4 million to other liabilities acquired, resulting in a reduction of gain on bargain purchase of $7.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.
Income Taxes
We intend to elect to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Under those sections, a REIT which distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income as dividends to its shareholders each year and which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders. Prior to the Separation, Vornado operated as a REIT and distributed 100% of taxable income to its shareholders, accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements for the periods prior to the Separation. We intend to adhere to these requirements and maintain our REIT status in future periods. We also participate in the activities conducted by subsidiary entities which have elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries under the Code. As such, we are subject to federal, state, and local taxes on the income from these activities.
Reclassifications
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we reclassified $4.5 million and $9.2 million of expenses to "General and administrative: third-party real estate services" from "Property operating expenses" and "General and administrative: corporate and other" as it relates to expenses incurred to provide third-party real estate services. Additionally, we reclassified $1.8 million and $3.8 million of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 to "Third-party real estate services, including reimbursements" from "Other income" as it relates to revenue earned from providing third-party real estate services.

2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Significant Accounting Policies
There were no material changes to our significant accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant of these estimates include: (i) the underlying cash flows used to establish the fair values recorded in connection with the Combination and used in assessing impairment and (ii) the determination of useful lives for tangible and intangible assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In connection with the adoption of Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, we revised the presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017.
The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") that could have a material effect on our financial statements:

ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), as clarified and amended by ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12
 
This standard establishes a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most of the existing revenue recognition guidance. It requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services and also requires certain additional disclosures.
 
January 2018
 
We utilized the modified retrospective method of adoption. The standard excludes from its scope the areas of accounting that most significantly affect our revenue recognition, including accounting for leases and financial instruments. Our evaluation determined there were no required changes to our recognition of revenue related to our third-party real estate services, tenant reimbursements, property and asset management fees, or transactional/management fees for leasing, development and construction. Our evaluation also determined there were no required changes to our recognition of promote fees and dispositions of real estate properties as we did not have any deferred gains due to continuing involvement at the time of adoption. Therefore, the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial statements. We adopted the practical expedient of this standard to only assess the recognition of revenue for open contracts at the date of adoption and there was no adjustment to the opening balance of our accumulated deficit at January 1, 2018. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for that period.

ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), as clarified and amended by ASU 2018-01, ASU 2018-10 and ASU 2018-11
 
This standard establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase. Lessees are required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. Lessees will recognize expense based on the effective interest method for finance leases or on a straight-line basis for operating leases. The ASU also clarifies that an assessment of whether a land easement meets the definition of a lease under the new lease standard is required. The provisions of this standard are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and should be applied through a modified retrospective transition, which includes optional practical expedients related to leases that commenced before the effective date and allows the new requirements to be applied on the date of adoption rather than the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented.
 
January 2019
 
We are currently evaluating the overall impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on our financial statements. ASU 2016-02 will more significantly impact the accounting for leases in which we are the lessee. We have ground leases for which we will be required to record a right-of-use asset and lease liability equal to the present value of the remaining minimum lease payments upon adoption of this standard. As of June 30, 2018, future ground lease payments totaled $574.4 million to which we would apply a discount rate. We are in the process of determining an appropriate discount rate. Under ASU 2016-02, initial direct costs for both lessees and lessors would include only those costs that are incremental to the arrangement and would not have been incurred if the lease had not been obtained. As a result, we may no longer be able to capitalize internal leasing costs and instead may be required to expense these costs as incurred. Capitalized internal leasing costs were $1.5 million and $269,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and $2.8 million and $800,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
ASU 2018-09, Codification Improvements
 
These amendments provide clarifications and corrections to certain ASC subtopics including the following: 220-10 (Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Overall), 470-50 (Debt - Modifications and Extinguishments), 480-10 (Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity - Overall), 718-740 (Compensation - Stock Compensation - Income Taxes), 805-740 (Business Combinations - Income Taxes), 815-10 (Derivatives and Hedging - Overall), and 820-10 (Fair Value Measurement - Overall).
 
January 2019

 
The updates related to Subtopics 470-50 and 820-10 were effective immediately and their adoption did not have an impact on our financial statements. We are currently evaluating the remaining guidance to determine the impact it may have on our financial statements.
3.    Dispositions
In April 2018, we sold Summit I and II, two office assets located in Reston, Virginia including 700,000 square feet of estimated potential development density, for an aggregate gross sales price of $95.0 million, resulting in a gain on the sale of $6.2 million. In connection with the sale, we repaid the related $59.0 million mortgage payable outstanding. In February 2018, we sold a land parcel and temporary easements associated with the Summit site for $2.2 million, resulting in a gain on the sale of $455,000.
In May 2018, we sold the Bowen Building, an office building located in Washington, D.C., for a gross sales price of $140.0 million, resulting in a gain on the sale of $27.2 million. In connection with the sale, we repaid $115.0 million of the then outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility.

Ownership interests as of June 30, 2018. We have multiple investments with certain venture partners with varying ownership interests.
In January 2018, we invested $10.1 million for a 16.67% interest in a real estate venture with CIM and PacLife, which purchased the 1,152-key Wardman Park hotel, located adjacent to the Woodley Park Metro Station in northwest Washington, D.C. Prior to the acquisition by this venture, the JBG Legacy Funds owned a 47.64% interest in the Wardman Park hotel. The JBG Legacy Funds did not receive any proceeds from the sale, as the net proceeds were used to satisfy the prior mortgage debt. A third-party asset manager oversees the hotel operations on behalf of the venture and our involvement will increase only to the extent the land development opportunity becomes the primary business plan for the asset.
In February 2018, we entered into a real estate venture with CPPIB to develop and own 1900 N Street, an under-construction office asset in Washington, D.C. We contributed 1900 N Street, valued at $95.9 million, to the real estate venture, and CPPIB has committed to contribute approximately $101.0 million to the venture for a 45.0% interest, which will reduce our ownership interest from 100.0% at the real estate venture's formation to 55.0% as contributions are funded.
In June 2018, the real estate venture with CPPIB that owns 1101 17th Street, a 216,000 square foot office building located in Washington, D.C., in which we have a 55.0% ownership interest, refinanced a mortgage loan payable that was collateralized by the property. The terms of the new mortgage loan eliminated the principal guaranty provisions that had been included in the prior loan. Distributions and our share of the cumulative earnings of the venture exceeded our investment in the venture by $5.4 million, which resulted in a negative investment balance. After the elimination of the principal guaranty provisions in the prior mortgage loan, we have not guaranteed the obligations of the venture or otherwise committed to provide further financial support to the venture. Accordingly, we recognized the $5.4 million negative investment balance as income within “Income from unconsolidated real estate ventures, net” in our statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. We have also suspended the equity method accounting for this real estate venture. We will recognize as income any future distributions from the venture until our share of unrecorded earnings and contributions exceed the cumulative excess distributions previously recognized in income.

5.    Variable Interest Entities

We hold various interests in entities deemed to be VIEs, which we evaluate at acquisition, formation, after a change in the ownership agreement or a change in the real estate venture's economics to determine if the VIEs should be consolidated in our financial statements or should no longer be considered a VIE. Certain criteria we assess in determining whether the VIEs should be consolidated relate to our at-risk equity, our control over significant business activities, our voting rights, the noncontrolling interest kick-out rights and whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE.  

Unconsolidated VIEs
As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we have interests in entities deemed to be VIEs that are in the development stage and do not hold sufficient equity at risk or conduct substantially all their operations on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights. Although we are engaged to act as the managing partner in charge of day-to-day operations of these investees, we are not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as we do not hold unilateral power over activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the respective VIE’s performance. We account for our investment in these entities under the equity method.

15



As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the net carrying amounts of our investment in these entities were $226.5 million and $163.5 million, which are included in "Investments in and advances to unconsolidated real estate ventures" in our balance sheets. Our equity in the income of unconsolidated VIEs is included in "Income from unconsolidated real estate ventures, net" in our statements of operations. Our maximum exposure to loss in these entities is limited to our investments, construction commitments and debt guarantees. See Note 15 for additional information.

Consolidated VIEs

JBG SMITH LP is our most significant consolidated VIE. We hold the majority membership interest in the operating partnership, act as the general partner and exercise full responsibility, discretion and control over its day-to-day management.
The noncontrolling interests of the operating partnership do not have substantive liquidation rights, substantive kick-out rights without cause, or substantive participating rights that could be exercised by a simple majority of noncontrolling interest members (including by such a member unilaterally). Because the noncontrolling interest holders do not have these rights, the operating partnership is a VIE. As general partner, we have the power to direct the core activities of the operating partnership that most significantly affect its performance, and through our majority interest in the operating partnership have both the right to receive benefits from and the obligation to absorb losses of the operating partnership. Accordingly, we are the primary beneficiary of the operating partnership and consolidate the operating partnership in our financial statements. As we conduct our business and hold our assets and liabilities through the operating partnership, the total assets and liabilities of the operating partnership comprise substantially all of our consolidated assets and liabilities.
We also consolidate certain VIEs in which we control the most significant business activities. These entities are VIEs because they are in the development stage and do not hold sufficient equity at risk. We are the primary beneficiaries of these VIEs because the noncontrolling interest holders do not have substantive kick-out or participating rights and we control all of the significant business activities. As of June 30, 2018, we consolidated two VIEs with total assets and liabilities, excluding the operating partnership, of $155.2 million and $13.2 million. As of December 31, 2017, we consolidated two VIEs with total assets and liabilities, excluding the operating partnership, of $111.0 million and $8.8 million.

As of June 30, 2018, the net carrying value of real estate collateralizing our mortgages payable totaled $2.5 billion. Our mortgage loans contain covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness on these properties and in certain circumstances, require lender approval of tenant leases and/or yield maintenance upon repayment prior to maturity. Certain of our mortgage loans are recourse to us.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, aggregate borrowings under mortgages payable totaled $41.3 million related to construction draws. We repaid mortgages payable with an aggregate principal balance of $162.5 million and recognized losses on the extinguishment of debt in conjunction with these repayments of $4.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.
As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had various interest rate swap and cap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $1.3 billion and $1.4 billion on certain of our mortgages payable, which mature on various dates concurrent with the maturity of the related mortgages payable. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we entered into various interest rate swap and cap agreements on certain of our mortgages payable with an aggregate notional value of $374.2 million. See Note 13 for additional information.
Credit Facility
Our $1.4 billion credit facility, consists of a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility maturing in July 2021, with two six-month extension options, a delayed draw $200.0 million unsecured term loan ("Tranche A-1 Term Loan") maturing in January 2023, and a delayed draw $200.0 million unsecured term loan ("Tranche A-2 Term Loan") maturing in July 2024.
In January 2018, we drew $50.0 million under the Tranche A-1 Term Loan in accordance with the delayed draw provisions of the credit facility, bringing the outstanding borrowings under the term loan facility to $100.0 million. Concurrent with the draw, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to convert the variable interest rate to a fixed interest rate. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional value of $100.0 million and $50.0 million to convert the variable interest rate applicable to our Tranche A-1 Term Loan to a fixed interest rate, providing weighted average base interest rates under the facility agreement of 2.12% and 1.97% per annum. The interest rate swaps mature in January 2023, concurrent with the maturity of our Tranche A-1 Term Loan.

9.    Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
JBG SMITH LP
JBG SMITH LP has issued 19.8 million OP Units to persons other than JBG SMITH that are redeemable for cash or, at our election, our common shares beginning August 1, 2018, subject to certain limitations. These OP Units represent a 14.4% interest in JBG SMITH LP as of June 30, 2018. During the third quarter of 2018, unitholders gave notice to redeem 3.0 million OP units, which we have elected to redeem for an equivalent number of our common shares. On our balance sheets, our redeemable noncontrolling interests are presented at the higher of their redemption value at the end of each reporting period or their carrying value, with such adjustments recognized in "Additional paid-in capital." Redemption value is equivalent to the market value of one our common shares at the end of the period multiplied by the number of vested OP units outstanding.

Consolidated Real Estate Venture
We are a partner in a real estate venture that owns an under construction multifamily asset located at 965 Florida Avenue in Washington, D.C. Pursuant to the terms of the 965 Florida Avenue real estate venture agreement, we will fund all capital contributions until our ownership interest reaches a maximum of 97.0%. Our partner can redeem its interest for cash two years after delivery, but no later than seven years subsequent to delivery. As of June 30, 2018, we held an 81.5% ownership interest.

10.     Share-Based Payments

Time-Based LTIP Units

In February 2018, we granted 357,759 long-term incentive partnership units ("LTIP Units") with time-based vesting requirements ("Time-Based LTIP Units") to management and other employees with a grant-date fair value of $11.2 million or $31.38 per unit valued based on the post-vesting restriction periods. The significant assumptions used to value the Time-Based LTIP Units included expected volatility (20.0%), risk-free interest rate (2.1%) and post-grant restriction periods (2 years). The Time-Based LTIP units vest in four equal installments in January of each year, subject to continued employment. Compensation expense is being recognized over a four-year period.
Performance-Based LTIP Units

In February 2018, we granted 553,489 LTIP Units with performance-based vesting requirements ("Performance-Based LTIP Units") to management and other employees with a grant-date fair value of $9.4 million or $17.04 per unit valued using Monte Carlo simulations. The significant assumptions used to value the Performance-Based LTIP Units included expected volatility (19.9%), dividend yield (2.7%) and risk-free interest rates (2.3%). Fifty percent of any Performance-Based LTIP Units that are earned vest at the end of the three-year performance period and the remaining 50% on the fourth anniversary of the date of grant, subject to continued employment. Compensation expense is being recognized over a four-year period.
LTIP Units

In May 2018, we granted a total of 25,770 fully vested LTIP Units to certain of our trustees with an aggregate grant-date fair value of $794,000.
Other Equity Awards

Certain executives have elected to receive all or a portion of any cash bonus that may be paid in 2019, related to 2018 service, in the form of fully vested LTIP Units.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, reflects the weighted average common shares attributable to the Vornado Included Assets at the date of the Separation.

The effect of the redemption of OP Units that were outstanding as of June 30, 2018 is excluded in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share, as the assumed exchange of such units for common shares on a one-for-one basis was antidilutive (the assumed redemption of these units would have no impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share). Since vested and outstanding OP Units, which are held by noncontrolling interests, are attributed gains and losses at an identical proportion to the common shareholders, the gains and losses attributable and their equivalent weighted average OP Unit impact are excluded from net income available to common shareholders and from the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in calculating basic and diluted earnings per common share. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the number of additional securities excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share as they were antidilutive, but potentially could be dilutive in the future was 21.7 million. There were no additional potentially dilutive securities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

13.    Fair Value Measurements

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
To manage or hedge our exposure to interest rate risk, we follow established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of a variety of derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
As of June 30, 2018, we had various derivative financial instruments consisting of interest rate swap and cap agreements that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The net unrealized gain on our derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges was $22.6 million as of June 30, 2018 and was recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive income" in the balance sheet, of which a portion was reclassified to "Redeemable noncontrolling interests." Within the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify $2.3 million as a decrease to interest expense. The net unrealized gain on our derivative financial instruments not designated as cash flow hedges was $432,000 and $1.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and is recorded in "Interest expense" in our statements of operations.
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures, establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels:
Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities;

21


Level 2 — observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and
Level 3 — unobservable inputs that are used when little or no market data is available.
The fair values of the derivative financial instruments are based on the estimated amounts we would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date and are determined using interest rate pricing models and observable inputs. The derivative financial instruments are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
The following are assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The fair values of our derivative financial instruments were determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivative financial instrument. This analysis reflected the contractual terms of the derivative, including the period to maturity, and used observable market-based inputs, including interest rate market data and implied volatilities in such interest rates. While it was determined that the majority of the inputs used to value the derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy under authoritative accounting guidance, the credit valuation adjustments associated with the derivatives also utilized Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default. However, as of June 30, 2018, the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of the derivative financial instruments was assessed and it was determined that these adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of the derivative financial instruments. As a result, it was determined that the derivative financial instruments in their entirety should be classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The net unrealized gain included in "Other comprehensive income'' was primarily attributable to the net change in unrealized gains or losses related to the interest rate swaps that were outstanding as of June 30, 2018, none of which were reported in the statements of operations because they were documented and qualified as hedging instruments.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value

The fair value of our mortgages payable is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows of these instruments using current risk-adjusted rates available to borrowers with similar credit ratings, which are provided by a third-party specialist. The fair value of the mortgages payable and unsecured term loan was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of our revolving credit facility and unsecured term loan is calculated based on the net present value of payments over the term of the facilities using estimated market rates for similar notes and remaining terms. The fair value of the revolving credit facility and unsecured term loan was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.

14.    Segment Information

We review operating and financial data for each property on an individual basis; therefore, each of our individual properties is a separate operating segment. As a result of the Formation Transaction, we redefined our reportable segments to be aligned with our method of internal reporting and the way our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), makes key operating decisions, evaluates financial results, allocates resources and manages our business. Accordingly, we aggregate our operating segments into three reportable segments (office, multifamily, and third-party real estate services) based on the economic characteristics and nature of our assets and services. In connection therewith, we have reclassified the prior period segment financial data to conform to the current period presentation.

The CODM measures and evaluates the performance of our operating segments, with the exception of the third-party real estate services business, based on the net operating income ("NOI") of properties within each segment. NOI includes property rental revenues and tenant reimbursements and deducts property operating expenses and real estate taxes.

With respect to the third-party real estate services business, the CODM reviews revenues streams generated by this segment ("Third-party real estate services, including reimbursements"), as well as the expenses attributable to the segment ("General and administrative: third-party real estate services"), which are disclosed separately in the statements of operations. Management company assets primarily consist of management and leasing contracts with a net book value of $42.1 million and $45.7 million and classified in "Other assets, net" in the balance sheets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. Consistent with internal reporting presented to our CODM and our definition of NOI, the third-party real estate services operating results are excluded from the NOI data below.

15.    Commitments and Contingencies
Insurance
We maintain general liability insurance with limits of $200.0 million per occurrence and in the aggregate, and property and rental value insurance coverage with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence, with sub-limits for certain perils such as floods and earthquakes on each of our properties. We also maintain coverage, through our wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary, for both terrorist acts and for nuclear, biological, chemical or radiological terrorism events with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence. These policies are partially reinsured by third-party insurance providers.
We will continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism. We cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future. We are responsible for deductibles and losses in excess of the insurance coverage, which could be material.
Our debt, consisting of mortgage loans secured by our properties, revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans contain customary covenants requiring adequate insurance coverage. Although we believe that we currently have adequate insurance coverage, 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 the ability to finance or refinance our properties.
Construction Commitments
As of June 30, 2018, we have construction in progress that will require an additional $461.0 million to complete ($362.9 million related to our consolidated entities and $98.1 million related to our unconsolidated real estate ventures at our share), based on our current plans and estimates, which we anticipate will be primarily expended over the next two to three years. These capital expenditures are generally due as the work is performed, and we expect to finance them with debt proceeds, proceeds from asset recapitalizations and sales, and available cash.
Environmental Matters
Each of our properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. The environmental assessments did not reveal any material environmental contamination that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our overall business, financial condition or results of operations, or that have not been anticipated and remediated during site redevelopment as required by law. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant cost to us.
Other
There are various legal actions against us in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
From time to time, we (or ventures in which we have an ownership interest) have agreed, and may in the future agree, to (1) guarantee portions of the principal, interest and other amounts in connection with their borrowings, (2) provide customary environmental indemnifications and nonrecourse carve-outs (e.g., guarantees against fraud, misrepresentation and bankruptcy)

26



in connection with their borrowings and (3) provide guarantees to lenders and other third parties for the completion of development projects. We customarily have agreements with our outside partners whereby the partners agree to reimburse the real estate venture or us for their share of any payments made under the guarantee. Amounts that may be required to be paid in future periods in relation to budget overruns or operating losses that are also included in some of our guarantees are not estimable. Guarantees (excluding environmental) terminate either upon the satisfaction of specified circumstances or repayment of the underlying debt. As of June 30, 2018, the aggregate amount of our principal payment guarantees was $61.3 million for our consolidated entities and there were no principal payment guarantees for our unconsolidated real estate ventures.
As of June 30, 2018, we expect to fund additional capital to certain of our unconsolidated investments totaling $48.6 million, which we anticipate will be primarily expended over the next two to three years.
In connection with the Formation Transaction, we entered into an agreement with Vornado regarding tax matters (the "Tax Matters Agreement") that provides special rules that allocate tax liabilities if the distribution of JBG SMITH shares by Vornado, together with certain related transactions, is not tax-free. Under the Tax Matters Agreement, we may be required to indemnify Vornado against any taxes and related amounts and costs resulting from a violation by us of the Tax Matters Agreement, or from the taking of certain restricted actions by us.

16.
Transactions with Vornado and Related Parties
Transactions with Vornado
As described in Note 1, the accompanying financial statements present the operations of the Vornado Included Assets as carved-out from the financial statements of Vornado for all periods prior to July 17, 2017.
Certain centralized corporate costs borne by Vornado for management and other services including, but not limited to, accounting, reporting, legal, tax, information technology and human resources have been allocated to the assets in the financial statements based on either actual costs incurred or a proportion of costs estimated to be applicable to the Vornado Included Assets based on key metrics including total revenue. The total amounts allocated during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 were $5.4 million and $12.2 million. These allocated amounts are included as a component of "General and administrative expense: Corporate and other" expenses on the statement of operations and do not necessarily reflect what actual costs would have been if the Vornado Included Assets were a separate standalone public company. Actual costs may be materially different.
In connection with the Formation Transaction, we entered into an agreement with Vornado under which Vornado provides operational support for an initial period of up to two years. These services include information technology, financial reporting and payroll services. The charges for these services are based on an hourly or per transaction fee arrangement including reimbursement for overhead and out-of-pocket expenses. The total charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 were $1.1 million and $2.3 million. Pursuant to an agreement, we are providing Vornado with leasing and property management services for certain of its assets that were not part of the Separation. The total revenue related to these services for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was $444,000 and $1.0 million. We believe that the terms of both of these agreements are comparable to those that would have been negotiated based on market rates.
In connection with the Formation Transaction, we entered into a Tax Matters Agreement with Vornado. See Note 15 for additional information.
In August 2014, we completed a $185.0 million financing of the Universal buildings, a 687,000 square foot office complex located in Washington, D.C. In connection with this financing, pursuant to a note agreement dated August 12, 2014, we used a portion of the financing proceeds and made an $86.0 million loan to Vornado at LIBOR plus 2.9% due August 2019. At the Separation, Vornado repaid the outstanding balance of the loan and related accrued interest. We recognized interest income of $843,000 and $1.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.
In connection with the development of The Bartlett, prior to the Separation, we entered into various note agreements with Vornado whereby we could borrow up to a maximum of $170.0 million. Vornado contributed these note agreements along with accrued and unpaid interest to JBG SMITH at the Separation. We incurred interest expense of $2.0 million and $3.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.
In June 2016, the $115.0 million mortgage loan (including $608,000 of accrued interest) secured by the Bowen Building, a 231,000 square foot office building located in Washington, D.C., was repaid with the proceeds of a $115.6 million draw on our former parent's revolving credit facility. We repaid our former parent with amounts drawn under our revolving credit facility at the Combination. We incurred interest expense of $625,000 and $1.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.
We have agreements that are terminable on the second anniversary of the Combination with Building Maintenance Services ("BMS"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Vornado, to supervise cleaning, engineering and security services at our properties. We

27


paid BMS $6.1 million and $3.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and $10.1 million and $6.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, which are included in "Property operating expenses" in our statements of operations.
We entered into a consulting agreement with Mitchell Schear, a member of our Board of Trustees and formerly the president of Vornado’s Washington, D.C. segment. The consulting agreement expired on December 31, 2017 and provides for the payment of consulting fees and expenses at the rate of $169,400 per month for the 24 months following the Separation, including after the termination of the consulting agreement. The amount due under this consulting agreement of $4.1 million was expensed in connection with the Combination. As of June 30, 2018, the remaining liability is $2.0 million. Additionally, in March 2017, Vornado amended Mr. Schear’s employment agreement to provide for the payment of severance, bonus and post-employment services. 
Transactions with Real Estate Ventures
We have a third-party real estate services business that provides fee-based real estate services to the JBG Legacy Funds and other third parties. We provide services for the benefit of the JBG Legacy Funds that own interests in the assets retained by the JBG Legacy Funds. In connection with the contribution of the JBG Assets to us, it was determined that the general partner and managing member interests in the JBG Legacy Funds that were held by former JBG executives (and who became members of our management team and/or Board of Trustees) would not be transferred to us and remain under the control of these individuals. In addition, certain members of our senior management and Board of Trustees have an ownership interest in the JBG Legacy Funds and own carried interests in each fund and in certain of our real estate ventures that entitles them to receive additional compensation if the fund or real estate venture achieves certain return thresholds. This third-party real estate services revenue, including reimbursements, from these JBG Legacy Funds for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was $8.3 million and $16.9 million. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had receivables from the JBG Legacy Funds totaling $2.2 million and $3.1 million for third-party real estate services, including reimbursements.
We rent our corporate offices from an unconsolidated real estate venture and incurred expenses totaling $1.2 million and $2.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, which is recorded in "General and administrative expense: Corporate and other" in our statements of operations.

17.
Subsequent Events
In July 2018, we borrowed $200.0 million under the Tranche A-2 Term Loan, in accordance with the delayed draw provisions of the credit facility. We also repaid the outstanding revolving credit facility balance of $35.7 million.
In July 2018, the buyer’s deposit became non-refundable in our agreement for the sale of Commerce Executive, a 394,000 square foot office asset located in Reston, Virginia, for $115.0 million, which had a net carrying value of $75.3 million as of June 30, 2018 and met the held for sale criteria subsequent to June 30, 2018.

In July 2018, our partner in the real estate venture that owns the Investment Building, a 401,000 square foot office building located in Washington, D.C., became obligated to acquire our 5.0% interest in the venture for $20.9 million, following their exercise of the buy-sell provisions of the venture agreement. As of June 30, 2018, our investment balance in the real estate venture was $9.2 million.
In August 2018, our Board of Trustees declared a quarterly dividend of $0.225 per common share, payable on August 27, 2018 to shareholders of record on August 14, 2018.

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 our forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Organization and Basis of Presentation

JBG SMITH Properties ("JBG SMITH") was organized by Vornado Realty Trust ("Vornado" or "former parent") as a Maryland real estate investment trust ("REIT") on October 27, 2016 (capitalized on November 22, 2016). JBG SMITH was formed for the purpose of receiving, via the spin-off on July 17, 2017 (the "Separation"), substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Vornado’s Washington, D.C. segment, which operated as Vornado / Charles E. Smith, (the "Vornado Included Assets"). On July 18, 2017, JBG SMITH acquired the management business and certain assets and liabilities (the "JBG Assets") of The JBG Companies ("JBG") (the "Combination"). The Separation and the Combination are collectively referred to as the "Formation Transaction." Substantially all of our assets are held by, and our operations are conducted through, JBG SMITH Properties LP ("JBG SMITH LP"), our operating partnership.

Prior to the Separation from Vornado, JBG SMITH was a wholly owned subsidiary of Vornado and had no material assets or operations. Our operations are presented as if the transfer of the Vornado Included Assets had been consummated prior to all historical periods presented in the accompanying consolidated and combined financial statements at the carrying amounts of such assets and liabilities reflected in Vornado’s books and records. The assets and liabilities of the JBG Assets and subsequent results of operations and cash flows are reflected in our consolidated and combined financial statements beginning on the date of the Combination.

The following is a discussion of the historical results of operations and liquidity and capital resources of JBG SMITH as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, which includes results prior to the consummation of the Formation Transaction. The historical results presented prior to the consummation of the Formation Transaction include the Vornado Included Assets, all of which were under common control of Vornado until July 17, 2017. Unless otherwise specified, the discussion of the historical results prior to July 18, 2017 does not include the results of the JBG Assets. Consequently, our results for the periods before and after the Formation Transaction are not directly comparable. The following discussion should be read with our condensed consolidated and combined interim financial statements and notes thereto appearing in "Item 1. Financial Statements."
References to the financial statements refer to our condensed consolidated and combined financial statements as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. References to the balance sheets refer to our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. References to the statements of operations refer to our condensed consolidated and combined statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. References to the statements of cash flows refer to our condensed consolidated and combined statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The historical financial results

29


for the Vornado Included Assets reflect charges for certain corporate costs allocated by the former parent which were based on either actual costs incurred or a proportion of costs estimated to be applicable to the Vornado Included Assets based on an analysis of key metrics, including total revenues. Such costs do not necessarily reflect what the actual costs would have been if JBG SMITH had been operating as a separate standalone public company. These charges are discussed further in Note 16 to the financial statements included herein.
We intend to elect to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Under those sections, a REIT which distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income as dividends to its shareholders each year and which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders. Prior to the Separation, Vornado operated as a REIT and distributed 100% of taxable income to its shareholders, accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements for the periods prior to the Separation. We intend to adhere to these requirements and maintain our REIT status in future periods. We also participate in the activities conducted by subsidiary entities which have elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries under the Code. As such, we are subject to federal, state, and local taxes on the income from these activities.
We aggregate our operating segments into three reportable segments (office, multifamily, and third-party real estate services) based on the economic characteristics and nature of our assets and services.
Our revenues and expenses are, to some extent, subject to seasonality during the year, which impacts quarterly net earnings, cash flows and funds from operations that affects the sequential comparison of our results in individual quarters over time. We have historically experienced higher utility costs in the first and third quarters of the year.
We compete with a large number of property owners and developers. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends affecting national and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants, the availability and cost of capital, interest rates, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations and legislation, population trends, zoning laws, and our ability to lease, sublease or sell our assets at profitable levels. Our success is also subject to our ability to refinance existing debt on acceptable terms as it comes due.
Overview
We own and operate a portfolio of high-quality office and multifamily assets, many of which are amenitized with ancillary retail. Our portfolio reflects our longstanding strategy of owning and operating assets within Metro-served submarkets in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area that have high barriers to entry and key urban amenities, including being within walking distance of a Metro station. 
As of June 30, 2018, our Operating Portfolio consists of 67 operating assets comprising 48 office assets totaling over 13.7 million square feet (11.8 million square feet at our share), 15 multifamily assets totaling 6,307 units (4,523 units at our share) and four other assets totaling approximately 765,000 square feet (348,000 square feet at our share). Additionally, we have (i) eight assets under construction comprising three office assets totaling approximately 774,000 square feet (542,000 square feet at our share), four multifamily assets totaling 1,476 units (1,282 units at our share) and one other asset totaling approximately 41,100 square feet (4,100 square feet at our share); and (ii) 42 future development assets totaling approximately 20.7 million square feet (17.2 million square feet at our share) of estimated potential development density.
Key highlights of operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 included:

net income attributable to common shareholders of $20.6 million, or $0.17 per diluted common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $11.3 million, or $0.11 per diluted common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Net income attributable to common shareholders of $16.4 million, or $0.14 per diluted common share, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $17.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted common share, for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Net income attributable to common shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 included gains on the sale of real estate of $33.4 million and $33.9 million;
operating office portfolio leased and occupied percentages at our share of 87.4% and 86.0% as of June 30, 2018 compared to 87.8% and 87.0% as of March 31, 2018 and 88.0% and 87.2% as of December 31, 2017. The decreases are due in part to the movement of CEB Tower at Central Place into our recently delivered operating assets during the quarter. The in service operating office portfolio was 88.0% leased and 86.6% occupied as of June 30, 2018, compared to 87.9% leased and 87.0% occupied as of March 31, 2018;
operating multifamily portfolio leased and occupied percentages at our share of 95.9% and 92.6% as of June 30, 2018 compared to 96.1% and 94.2% as of March 31, 2018 and 95.6% and 93.8% as of December 31, 2017. The decreases are due in part to the movement of 1221 Van Street into our recently delivered operating assets during the quarter. The in service operating multifamily portfolio was 98.0% leased and 95.0% occupied as of June 30, 2018, compared to 96.1% leased and 94.2% occupied as of March 31, 2018;

30


the leasing of approximately 356,000 square feet, or 319,000 square feet at our share, at an initial rent (1) of $54.01 per square foot and a GAAP-basis weighted average rent per square foot (2) of $55.52 for the three months ended June 30, 2018, and the leasing of approximately 711,000 square feet, or 641,000 square feet at our share, at an initial rent (1) of $50.66 per square foot and a GAAP-basis weighted average rent per square foot (2) of $52.26 for the six months ended June 30, 2018; and
an increase in same store (3) net operating income of 6.2% to $70.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $66.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, and an increase in same store (3) net operating income of 8.0% to $139.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $129.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017.
_________________

Additionally, investing and financing activity during the six months ended June 30, 2018 included:
the sale of Summit I and II, two office assets located in Reston, Virginia, including 700,000 square feet of estimated potential development density, for an aggregate gross sales price of $95.0 million, resulting in a gain on the sale of $6.2 million. In connection with the sale, we repaid the related $59.0 million mortgage payable outstanding;
the sale of the Bowen Building, an office building located in Washington, D.C., for a gross sales price of $140.0 million, resulting in a gain on the sale of $27.2 million. In connection with the sale, we repaid $115.0 million of the then outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility;
the closing of a real estate venture with Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board ("CPPIB") to develop and own 1900 N Street, an under-construction office asset in Washington, D.C. We contributed 1900 N Street, valued at $95.9 million, to the real estate venture, and CPPIB has committed to contribute approximately $101.0 million to the venture for a 45.0% interest, which will reduce our ownership interest from 100.0% at the real estate venture's formation to 55.0% as contributions are funded;
the investment of $10.1 million for a 16.67% interest in a real estate venture with CIM Group and Pacific Life Insurance Company, which purchased the 1,152-key Wardman Park hotel, located adjacent to the Woodley Park Metro Station in northwest Washington, D.C.;
a $50.0 million draw under our unsecured term loan maturing in January 2023 ("Tranche A-1 Term Loan"), in accordance with the delayed draw provisions of the credit facility, bringing the outstanding borrowings under the term loan facility to $100.0 million. Concurrent with the draw, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to convert the variable interest rate to a fixed interest rate;

the investment of $165.7 million in development costs, construction in progress and real estate additions.
Activity subsequent to June 30, 2018 included:
a $200.0 million borrowing under our unsecured term loan maturing in July 2024 ("Tranche A-2 Term Loan"), in accordance with the delayed draw provisions of the credit facility. We also repaid the outstanding revolving credit facility balance of $35.7 million;
the buyer's deposit became non-refundable in our agreement for the sale of Commerce Executive, a 394,000 square foot office asset located in Reston, Virginia, for $115.0 million, which had a net carrying value of $75.3 million as of June 30, 2018 and met the held for sale criteria subsequent to June 30, 2018;
our partner in the real estate venture that owns the Investment Building, a 401,000 square foot office building located in Washington, D.C., became obligated to acquire our 5.0% interest in the venture for $20.9 million, following their exercise of the buy-sell provisions of the venture agreement. As of June 30, 2018, our investment balance in the real estate venture was $9.2 million; and

Property rentals revenue increased by approximately $24.5 million, or 24.3%, to $125.2 million in 2018 from $100.7 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to $24.8 million of revenue associated with the assets acquired in the Combination. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of $324,000 in revenue associated with the Vornado Included Assets, of which $1.5 million was due to the sale of the Bowen Building, partially offset by an increase in revenue across the remaining portfolio.
Tenant reimbursements revenue decreased by approximately $1.0 million, or 11.0%, to $8.0 million in 2018 from $8.9 million in 2017. The decrease was primarily due to a $2.2 million decrease in tax recoveries related to lower tax assessments and $579,000 related to the sale of the Bowen Building, partially offset by an increase of $1.8 million associated with the assets acquired in the Combination.
Third-party real estate services revenue, including reimbursements, increased by approximately $17.4 million, or 255.6%, to $24.2 million in 2018 from $6.8 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to $17.8 million associated with the real estate services business acquired in the Combination, partially offset by lower payroll reimbursements related to third-party arrangements that were terminated during 2017 and early 2018.

32


Depreciation and amortization expense increased by approximately $16.1 million, or 50.4%, to $48.1 million for 2018 from $32.0 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to depreciation and amortization expense associated with the assets acquired in the Combination.
Property operating expense increased by approximately $6.5 million, or 27.0%, to $30.4 million in 2018 from $24.0 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to property operating expenses associated with the assets acquired in the Combination, partially offset by the sale of the Bowen Building.
Real estate tax expense increased by approximately $1.9 million, or 12.4%, to $17.5 million in 2018 from $15.6 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to real estate tax expense of $3.6 million associated with the assets acquired in the Combination, partially offset by a decrease associated with the Vornado Included Assets due to decreased tax assessments and the sale of the Bowen Building.
General and administrative expense: corporate and other increased by approximately $1.1 million, or 9.5%, to $12.7 million for 2018 from $11.6 million in 2017. The increase was due to an increase in general and administrative expenses associated with the operations acquired in the Combination.
General and administrative expense: third-party real estate services increased by approximately $16.7 million, or 372.3%, to $21.2 million in 2018 from $4.5 million in 2017 primarily due to the real estate services business acquired in the Combination.
General and administrative expense: share-based compensation related to Formation Transaction of $9.1 million in 2018 consists of expense related to share-based compensation issued in connection with the Formation Transaction.
Transaction and other costs of $3.8 million in 2018 and $5.2 million in 2017 consist primarily of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Formation Transaction, including amounts incurred for transition services provided by our former parent, integration costs and severance costs.
Interest expense increased by approximately $3.4 million, or 23.6%, to $18.0 million for 2018 from $14.6 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to $4.5 million of interest expense associated with the assets acquired in the Combination, partially offset by the repayment of the mortgage associated with the Bowen Building and 2011 Crystal Drive.
Gain on the sale of real estate of $33.4 million is related to the sale of Summit I and II and the Bowen Building. See Note 3 to the financial statements for additional information.
Loss on extinguishment of debt of $4.5 million is related to our repayment of various mortgages payable during the period.
Reduction of gain on bargain purchase of $7.6 million is the result of finalizing our fair value estimates used in the purchase price allocation related to the Combination. We adjusted the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed consisting of a decrease of $468,000 to investments in and advances to unconsolidated real estate ventures, an increase of $4.7 million to lease assumption liabilities and an increase of $2.4 million to other liabilities acquired.

Property rentals revenue increased by approximately $52.1 million, or 26.1%, to $251.9 million in 2018 from $199.8 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to $51.1 million of revenue associated with the assets acquired in the Combination and an increase of $1.0 million in revenue associated with the Vornado Included Assets, primarily due to an increase in occupancy and associated rentals at The Bartlett, which was placed into service in the second quarter of 2016, partially offset by the sale of the Bowen Building.
Tenant reimbursements revenue increased by approximately $1.4 million, or 8.1%, to $18.9 million in 2018 from $17.5 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $4.1 million associated with the assets acquired in the Combination, partially offset by a decrease of $2.7 million associated with the Vornado Included Assets primarily due to lower tax assessments and the sale of the Bowen Building.
Third-party real estate services revenue, including reimbursements, increased by approximately $34.6 million, or 248.4%, to $48.5 million in 2018 from $13.9 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $37.0 million associated with the real estate services business acquired in the Combination, partially offset by lower payroll reimbursements related to third-party arrangements that were terminated during 2017 and early 2018.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by approximately $31.5 million, or 47.9%, to $97.3 million for 2018 from $65.8 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to depreciation and amortization expense associated with the assets acquired in the Combination.
Property operating expense increased by approximately $13.5 million, or 28.4%, to $61.3 million in 2018 from $47.7 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to property operating expenses of $14.7 million associated with the assets acquired in the Combination, partially offset by a decrease of $1.2 million associated with the Vornado Included Assets due primarily to the sale of the Bowen Building and lower payroll expenses.
Real estate tax expense increased by approximately $6.4 million, or 20.7%, to $37.1 million in 2018 from $30.8 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to real estate tax expense of $6.9 million associated with the assets acquired in the Combination, partially offset by a decrease associated with the Vornado Included Assets due to lower tax assessments and the sale of the Bowen Building.

34


General and administrative expense: corporate and other increased by approximately $418,000, or 1.7%, to $25.4 million for 2018 from $24.9 million in 2017. The decrease was due to lower corporate overhead costs in the 2018 period compared to the amount allocated and recorded in the 2017 period, partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses associated with the operations acquired in the Combination.
General and administrative expense: third-party real estate services increased by approximately $34.6 million, or 376.9%, to $43.8 million in 2018 from $9.2 million in 2017 primarily due to the real estate services business acquired in the Combination.
General and administrative expense: share-based compensation related to Formation Transaction of $18.5 million in 2018 consists of expense related to share-based compensation issued in connection with the Formation Transaction.
Transaction and other costs of $8.0 million in 2018 and $11.1 million in 2017 consist primarily of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Formation Transaction, including amounts incurred for transition services provided by our former parent, integration costs and severance costs.
Interest expense increased by approximately $8.8 million, or 30.8%, to $37.3 million for 2018 from $28.5 million in 2017. The increase was primarily due to $10.5 million of interest expense associated with the assets acquired in the Combination and the financing of 1235 South Clark Street, partially offset by the repayment of the mortgages associated with 2011 Crystal Drive and the Bowen Building.
Gain on the sale of real estate of $33.9 million is primarily related to the sale of Summit I and II and the Bowen Building. See Note 3 to the financial statements for additional information.
Loss on extinguishment of debt of $4.5 million is related to our repayment of various mortgages payable during the period.
Reduction of gain on bargain purchase of $7.6 million is the result of finalizing our fair value estimates used in the purchase price allocation related to the Combination. We adjusted the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed consisting of a decrease of $468,000 to investments in and advances to unconsolidated real estate ventures, an increase of $4.7 million to lease assumption liabilities and an increase of $2.4 million to other liabilities acquired.

Net Operating Income ("NOI") and Same Store NOI
We utilize NOI, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, to assess a segment’s performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net income attributable to common shareholders. We use NOI internally as a performance measure and believe NOI provides useful information to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only property related revenue (which includes base rent, tenant reimbursements and other operating revenue) less operating expense, before deferred rent and related party management fees. Management uses NOI as a supplemental performance measure for our assets and believes it provides useful information to investors because it reflects only those revenue and expense items that are incurred at the asset level, excluding non-cash items. In addition, NOI is considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful starting point for determining the value of a real estate asset or group of assets. However, because NOI excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our assets that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and capitalized leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our assets, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact the financial performance of our assets, the utility of NOI as a measure of the operating performance of our assets is limited. NOI presented by us may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define these measures differently. We believe that to facilitate a clear understanding of our operating results, NOI should be examined in conjunction with net income attributable to common shareholders as presented in our financial statements. NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to common shareholders as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity or our ability to make distributions.

We also provide certain information on a "same store" basis. Information provided on a same store basis includes the results of properties that are owned, operated and in service for the entirety of both periods being compared except for properties for which significant redevelopment, renovation or repositioning occurred during either of the periods being compared. While there is judgment surrounding changes in designations, a property is removed from the same store pool when the property is considered to be under construction because it is undergoing significant redevelopment or renovation pursuant to a formal plan or is being repositioned in the market and such renovation or repositioning is expected to have a significant impact on property operating income. A development property or property under construction is moved to the same store pool once a substantial portion of the growth expected from the development or redevelopment is reflected in both the current and comparable prior year period. Acquisitions are moved into the same store pool once we have owned the property for the entirety of the comparable periods and the property is not under significant development or redevelopment.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, all of the JBG Assets and two Vornado Included Assets (The Bartlett and 1800 South Bell Street) were not included in the same store comparison as they were not in service during portions of the periods being compared. Additionally, the Bowen Building was excluded because it was sold during the period.

Same store NOI increased by $4.1 million, or 6.2%, and $10.4 million, or 8.0%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase in same store NOI was largely attributable to a reduction in real estate tax expense resulting from real estate tax refunds and reduced assessments, and the expiration of payments associated with the assumption of lease liabilities.

Reportable Segments
We review operating and financial data for each property on an individual basis; therefore, each of our individual properties is a separate operating segment. As a result of the Formation Transaction, we redefined our reportable segments to be aligned with our method of internal reporting and the way our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), makes key operating decisions, evaluates financial results, allocates resources and manages our business. Accordingly, we aggregate our operating segments into three reportable segments (office, multifamily and third-party real estate services) based on the economic characteristics and nature of our assets and services. In connection therewith, we have reclassified the prior period segment financial data to conform to the current period presentation.

The CODM measures and evaluates the performance of our operating segments, with the exception of the third-party real estate services business, based on the NOI of properties within each segment. NOI includes property rental revenues and tenant reimbursements and deducts property operating expenses and real estate taxes.

With respect to the third-party real estate services business, the CODM reviews revenues streams generated by this segment ("Third-party real estate services, including reimbursements"), as well as the expenses attributable to the segment ("General and administrative: third-party real estate services"), which are disclosed separately in the statements of operations and discussed in the preceding pages under "Results of Operations.” The following presents a reconciliation of revenue from our third-party asset management and real estate services business, excluding reimbursements and service revenue, to "Third-party real estate services revenue, including reimbursements":

Consistent with internal reporting presented to our CODM and our definition of NOI, the third-party real estate services operating results are excluded from the NOI data below.

Rental revenue is calculated as property rentals plus tenant reimbursements. Rental expense is calculated as property operating expenses plus real estate taxes. NOI is calculated as rental revenue less rental expense. See Note 14 to the financial statements for the reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders to consolidated NOI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 to June 30, 2017
Office: Rental revenue increased by $17.7 million, or 20.5%, to $103.9 million in 2018 from $86.2 million in 2017. Consolidated NOI increased by $13.3 million, or 25.7%, to $65.2 million in 2018 from $51.9 million in 2017. The increase in rental revenue and consolidated NOI is primarily due to revenue associated with assets acquired in the Combination and higher rents due to rent commencements at 241 18th Street South, 1215 South Clark Street and 1225 South Clark Street, partially offset by a decrease in occupancy at 2345 Crystal Drive.
Multifamily: Rental revenue increased by $5.8 million, or 27.5%, to $26.9 million in 2018 from $21.1 million in 2017. Consolidated NOI increased by $2.0 million, or 14.9%, to $15.8 million in 2018 from $13.7 million in 2017. The increase in rental revenue and consolidated NOI is primarily due to the assets acquired in the Combination and an increase in occupancy and associated rentals at The Bartlett, which was placed into service in the second quarter of 2016.
Other: Rental revenue decreased by $517,000, or 16.0%, to $2.7 million in 2018 from $3.2 million in 2017. Consolidated NOI decreased by $2.9 million to a loss of $0.9 million in 2018 from $2.0 million of income in 2017 due to expenses associated with land assets acquired in the Combination and 501 15th Street being taken out of service.
Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 to June 30, 2017
Office: Rental revenue increased by $41.5 million, or 24.0%, to $214.2 million in 2018 from $172.7 million in 2017. Consolidated NOI increased by $27.5 million, or 26.1%, to $132.7 million in 2018 from $105.2 million in 2017. The increase in rental revenue and consolidated NOI is primarily due to revenue associated with assets acquired in the Combination and higher rents due to rent commencements at 241 18th Street South and 1225 South Clark Street, partially offset by a decrease in occupancy at 2345 Crystal Drive.
Multifamily: Rental revenue increased by $11.8 million, or 29.0%, to $52.7 million in 2018 from $40.9 million in 2017. Consolidated NOI increased by $5.0 million, or 19.5%, to $31.0 million in 2018 from $25.9 million in 2017. The increase in rental revenue and consolidated NOI is primarily due to the assets acquired in the Combination and an increase in occupancy and associated rentals at The Bartlett, which was placed into service in the second quarter of 2016.
Other: Rental revenue decreased by $1.0 million, or 18.1%, to $4.4 million in 2018 from $5.3 million in 2017. Consolidated NOI decreased by $4.0 million to a loss of $1.5 million in 2018 from $2.6 million of income in 2017 due to expenses associated with land assets acquired in the Combination and 501 15th Street being taken out of service.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Property rental income is our primary source of operating cash flow and is dependent on a number of factors including occupancy levels and rental rates, as well as our tenants’ ability to pay rent. In addition, we have a third-party real estate services business that provides fee-based real estate services to the legacy funds formerly organized by JBG and other third parties. Our assets provide a relatively consistent level of cash flow that enables us to pay operating expenses, debt service, recurring capital expenditures, dividends to shareholders and distributions to holders of OP Units. Other sources of liquidity to fund cash requirements include proceeds from financings, the issuance of equity securities and asset sales. We anticipate that cash flows from continuing operations and proceeds from financings, recapitalizations and asset sales, together with existing cash balances, will be adequate to fund our business operations, debt amortization, capital expenditures, dividends to shareholders and distributions to holders of OP Units over the next 12 months.

As of June 30, 2018, the net carrying value of real estate collateralizing our mortgages payable totaled $2.5 billion. Our mortgage loans contain covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness on these properties and in certain circumstances, require lender approval of tenant leases and/or yield maintenance upon repayment prior to maturity. Certain of our mortgage loans are recourse to us.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, aggregate borrowings under mortgages payable totaled $41.3 million related to construction draws. We repaid mortgages payable with an aggregate principal balance of $162.5 million and recognized losses on the extinguishment of debt in conjunction with these repayments of $4.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.
As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had various interest rate swap and cap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $1.3 billion and $1.4 billion on certain of our mortgages payable, which mature on various dates concurrent with the maturity of the related mortgages payable. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we entered into various interest rate swap and cap agreements on certain of our mortgages payable with an aggregate notional value of $374.2 million.
Our $1.4 billion credit facility, consists of a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility maturing in July 2021, with two six-month extension options, a Tranche A-1 Term Loan, a delayed draw $200.0 million unsecured term loan maturing in January 2023, and a Tranche A-2 Term Loan, a delayed draw $200.0 million unsecured term loan maturing in July 2024.
In January 2018, we drew $50.0 million under the Tranche A-1 Term Loan in accordance with the delayed draw provisions of the credit facility, bringing the outstanding borrowings under the term loan facility to $100.0 million. Concurrent with the draw, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to convert the variable interest rate to a fixed interest rate. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional value of $100.0 million and $50.0 million to convert the variable interest rate applicable to our Tranche A-1 Term Loan to a fixed interest rate, providing weighted average base interest rates under the facility agreement of 2.12% and 1.97% per annum. The interest rate swaps mature in January 2023, concurrent with the maturity of our Tranche A-1 Term Loan.

In May 2018, in connection with the sale of the Bowen Building, we repaid $115.0 million of the outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility. See Note 3 to the financial statements for additional information.
In July 2018, we borrowed $200.0 million under the Tranche A-2 Term Loan, in accordance with the delayed draw provisions of the credit facility. We also repaid the outstanding revolving credit facility balance of $35.7 million.
In July 2018, we entered into an equity distribution agreement with various financial institutions relating to the issuance of up to $200.0 million of our common shares from time to time. We may use net proceeds from the issuance of common shares under this program for general corporate purposes, which may include paying down our indebtedness and funding our under construction assets and future development opportunities.

In July 2018, we commenced a dividend reinvestment program, whereby shareholders may use their dividends and optional cash payments to purchase common shares. The common shares sold under this program may either be common shares issued by us or common shares purchased in the open market.
Long-term Liquidity Requirements
Our long-term capital requirements consist primarily of maturities under our credit facility and mortgage loans, construction commitments for development and redevelopment projects and costs related to growing our business, including acquisitions. We intend to fund these requirements through a combination of sources including available cash, debt proceeds, proceeds from asset recapitalizations and sales and other financing sources, including issuances of equity.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, there were no material changes to the contractual obligation information presented in Item 7 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. The only significant change was a $155.3 million decrease in outstanding debt. In July 2018, we borrowed $200.0 million under the Tranche A-2 Term Loan, in accordance with the delayed draw provisions of the credit facility.
As of June 30, 2018, we expect to fund additional capital to certain of our unconsolidated investments totaling approximately $48.6 million, which we anticipate will be primarily expended over the next two to three years.
In August 2018, our Board of Trustees declared a quarterly dividend of $0.225 per common share.

Cash Flows for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2018
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash decreased $76.9 million to $261.7 million as of June 30, 2018 compared to $338.6 million as of December 31, 2017. This decrease resulted from $221.7 million of net cash used in financing activities, partially offset by $93.5 million of net cash provided by operating activities and $51.3 million of net cash provided by investing activities. Our outstanding debt was $2.0 billion as of June 30, 2018 compared to $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2017. The $155.3 million decrease in outstanding debt is primarily from repayments of mortgages payable and our revolving credit facility, partially offset by an additional draw under the Tranche A-1 Term Loan, and borrowings under mortgages payable and our revolving credit facility.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $93.5 million primarily comprised: (i) $120.0 million of net income (before $134.6 million of non-cash items and a $33.9 million gain on sale of real estate) and (ii) $5.2 million of return on capital from unconsolidated real estate ventures, partially offset by $31.6 million of net change in operating assets and liabilities.

Cash Flows for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were $284.3 million as of June 30, 2017 compared to $32.3 million as of December 31, 2016, an increase of $252.1 million. This increase resulted from $72.7 million of net cash provided by operating activities and $235.6 million of net cash provided by financing activities, partially offset by $56.2 million of net cash used in investing activities.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $72.7 million primarily comprised: (i) $80.8 million of net income (before $63.1 million of non-cash items), partially offset by (ii) $8.8 million of net change in operating assets and liabilities. Non-cash income adjustments of $63.1 million primarily include depreciation and amortization, deferred rent, amortization of lease incentives, share-based compensation expense and other non-cash items.
Net cash used in investing activities of $56.2 million primarily comprised: (i) $54.7 million of development costs, construction in progress and real estate additions and (ii) $1.4 million of other investments.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures
We consolidate entities in which we have a controlling interest or are the primary beneficiary in a variable interest entity. From time to time, we may have off-balance-sheet unconsolidated real estate ventures and other unconsolidated arrangements with varying structures.
As of June 30, 2018, we have investments in and advances to unconsolidated real estate ventures totaling $368.3 million. For the majority of these investments, we exercise significant influence over, but do not control these entities and therefore account for these investments using the equity method of accounting. For a more complete description of our real estate ventures, see Note 4 to the financial statements.
From time to time, we (or ventures in which we have an ownership interest) have agreed, and may in the future agree with respect to unconsolidated real estate ventures, to (1) guarantee portions of the principal, interest and other amounts in connection with their borrowings, (2) provide customary environmental indemnifications and nonrecourse carve-outs (e.g., guarantees against fraud, misrepresentation and bankruptcy) in connection with their borrowings and (3) provide guarantees to lenders and other third parties for the completion of development projects. We customarily have agreements with our outside partners whereby the partners agree to reimburse the real estate venture or us for their share of any payments made under certain of these guarantees. Amounts that may be required to be paid in future periods in relation to budget overruns or operating losses that are also included in some of our guarantees are not estimable. Guarantees (excluding environmental) terminate either upon the satisfaction of specified circumstances or repayment of the underlying debt. At times, we have agreements with our outside partners whereby we agree to reimburse our partner for their share of any payments made by them under certain guarantees. As of June 30, 2018, there were no principal payment guarantees for our unconsolidated real estate ventures.
As of June 30, 2018, we expect to fund additional capital to certain of our unconsolidated investments totaling approximately $48.6 million, which we anticipate will be primarily expended over the next two to three years.
Reconsideration events could cause us to consolidate these unconsolidated real estate ventures and partnerships in the future or deconsolidate a consolidated entity. We evaluate reconsideration events as we become aware of them. Some triggers to be considered are additional contributions required by each partner and each partners’ ability to make those contributions. Under certain of these circumstances, we may purchase our partner’s interest. Our unconsolidated real estate ventures are held in entities which appear sufficiently stable to meet their capital requirements; however, if market conditions worsen and our partners are unable to meet their commitments, there is a possibility we may have to consolidate these entities.

Commitments and Contingencies
Insurance
We maintain general liability insurance with limits of $200.0 million per occurrence and in the aggregate, and property and rental value insurance coverage with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence, with sub-limits for certain perils such as floods and earthquakes on each of our properties. We also maintain coverage, through our wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary, for both terrorist acts and for nuclear, biological, chemical or radiological terrorism events with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence. These policies are partially reinsured by third-party insurance providers.
We will continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism. We cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future. We are responsible for deductibles and losses in excess of the insurance coverage, which could be material.
Our debt, consisting of mortgage loans secured by our properties, revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans contain customary covenants requiring adequate insurance coverage. Although we believe that we currently have adequate insurance coverage, 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 the ability to finance or refinance our properties.
Construction Commitments
As of June 30, 2018, we have construction in progress that will require an additional $461.0 million to complete ($362.9 million related to our consolidated entities and $98.1 million related to our unconsolidated real estate ventures at our share), based on our current plans and estimates, which we anticipate will be primarily expended over the next two to three years. These capital expenditures are generally due as the work is performed, and we expect to finance them with debt proceeds, proceeds from asset recapitalizations and sales, and available cash.

42


Other
There are various legal actions against us in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In connection with the Formation Transaction, we entered into an agreement with Vornado regarding tax matters (the "Tax Matters Agreement") that provides special rules that allocate tax liabilities if the distribution of JBG SMITH shares by Vornado, together with certain related transactions, is not tax-free. Under the Tax Matters Agreement, we may be required to indemnify Vornado against any taxes and related amounts and costs resulting from a violation by us of the Tax Matters Agreement, or from the taking of certain restricted actions by us.
Environmental Matters
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an owner of real estate is liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on such real estate. These laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. The costs of remediation or removal of such substances may be substantial and the presence of such substances, or the failure to promptly remediate such substances, may adversely affect the owner’s ability to sell such real estate or to borrow using such real estate as collateral. In connection with the ownership and operation of our assets, we may be potentially liable for such costs. The operations of current and former tenants at our assets have involved, or may have involved, the use of hazardous materials or generated hazardous wastes. The release of such hazardous materials and wastes could result in us incurring liabilities to remediate any resulting contamination if the responsible party is unable or unwilling to do so. In addition, our assets are exposed to the risk of contamination originating from other sources. While a property owner may not be responsible for remediating contamination that has migrated onsite from an identifiable and viable offsite source, the contaminant’s presence can have adverse effects on operations and the redevelopment of our assets.

Most of our assets have been subject, at some point, to environmental assessments that are intended to evaluate the environmental condition of the subject and surrounding assets. These environmental assessments generally have included a historical review, a public records review, a visual inspection of the site and surrounding assets, visual or historical evidence of underground storage tanks, and the preparation and issuance of a written report. Soil and/or groundwater subsurface testing is conducted at our assets, when necessary, to further investigate any issues raised by the initial assessment that could reasonably be expected to pose a material concern to the property or result in us incurring material environmental liabilities as a result of redevelopment. They may not, however, have included extensive sampling or subsurface investigations. In each case where the environmental assessments have identified conditions requiring remedial actions required by law, we have initiated appropriate actions.

Each of our properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. The environmental assessments did not reveal any material environmental contamination that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our overall business, financial condition or results of operations, or that have not been anticipated and remediated during site redevelopment as required by law. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant cost to us.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
We have exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, which are sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control. Our exposure to a change in interest rates is summarized in the table below.

(3) 
As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the outstanding balance was fixed by interest rate swap agreements.

The fair value of our debt is calculated by discounting the future contractual cash flows of these instruments using current risk‑adjusted rates available to borrowers with similar credit profiles based on market sources. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the estimated fair value of our consolidated debt was $2.1 billion and $2.2 billion. These estimates of fair value, which are made at the end of the reporting period, may be different from the amounts that may ultimately be realized upon the disposition of our financial instruments.
Hedging Activities
To manage, or hedge, our exposure to interest rate risk, we follow established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of a variety of derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
Derivative Financial Instruments Designated as Cash Flow Hedges - Certain derivative financial instruments, consisting of interest rate swap and cap agreements, are designated as cash flow hedges, and are carried at their estimated fair value on a recurring basis. We assess the effectiveness of our cash flow hedges both at inception and on an ongoing basis. If the hedges are deemed to be effective, the fair value is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into "Interest expense" in the period that the hedged forecasted transactions affect earnings. Our cash flow hedges become less than perfectly effective if the critical terms of the hedging instrument and the forecasted transactions do not perfectly match such as notional amounts, settlement dates, reset dates, calculation period and interest rates. In addition, we evaluate the default risk of the counterparty by monitoring the credit worthiness of the counterparty. While management believes its judgments are reasonable, a change in a derivative’s effectiveness as a hedge could materially affect expenses, net income and equity.
As of June 30, 2018, we had interest rate swap and cap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $749.4 million. As of June 30, 2018, the fair value of our interest rate swaps and caps consisted of assets totaling $17.6 million included in "Other assets, net" in our balance sheet, and liabilities totaling $1.3 million included in "Other liabilities, net" in our balance sheet.
Derivative Financial Instruments Not Designated as Hedges - Certain derivative financial instruments, consisting of interest rate swap and cap agreements, are considered economic hedges, but not designated as accounting hedges, and are carried at their estimated fair value on a recurring basis. Realized and unrealized gains are recorded in "Interest expense" in the statements of operations in the period in which the change occurs. As of June 30, 2018, we had various interest rate swap and cap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $638.7 million. As of June 30, 2018, the fair value of our interest rate swaps and caps not designated as hedges consisted of assets totaling $6.4 million included in "Other assets, net" in our balance sheet.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of June 30, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
