Item 2. Properties

As of December 31, 2023, our consolidated portfolio consisted of 31 outlet centers and one open-air lifestyle center, totaling 12.7 million square feet located in 18 states. We own interests in six other outlet centers totaling approximately 2.1 million square feet through unconsolidated joint ventures, including two outlet centers located in Canada. Our portfolio also includes two managed centers totaling approximately 760,000 square feet. Each of our outlet centers, except one joint venture property, features the Tanger brand name. Our consolidated centers range in size from 181,687 to 739,148 square feet. The centers are generally located near tourist destinations or along major interstate highways to provide visibility and accessibility to potential customers.

We believe that our centers are well diversified geographically and by tenant and that we are not dependent upon any single property or tenant. No property comprises more than 10% or more of our consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2023. Our asset in Deer Park represented more than 10% of our consolidated total assets in 2022. With the addition of Nashville, Asheville and Huntsville, Deer Park's total assets now fall below 10% of our consoliated total assets. No property comprises more than 10% of our consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023.

We have an ongoing strategy of acquiring centers, developing new centers and expanding existing centers. See “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources” for a discussion of the cost of such programs and the sources of financing thereof.

As of December 31, 2023, of the 32 centers in our consolidated portfolio, we own the land underlying 26 and have ground leases on all or a portion of six centers. The following table sets forth information about such land leases:

Rehoboth Beach, DE2.720442064

Generally, our leases with our center tenants typically have an initial term that ranges from 5 to 10 years and provide for the payment of fixed monthly rent in advance. There are often contractual base rent increases during the initial term of the lease. In addition, the rental payments are customarily subject to upward adjustments based upon tenant sales volume. A component of most leases includes a pro-rata share or escalating fixed contributions by the tenant for property operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and advertising and promotion, thereby reducing exposure to increases in operating expenses resulting from inflation.

Base Rents and Occupancy Rates

The following table sets forth our year end occupancy and average annual base rent per square foot during each of the last five calendar years for our consolidated centers:

2023202220212020 (2)2019
Occupancy97%97%95%92%97%
Average annual base rent per square foot$26.07$25.25$23.79$21.10$25.35

(1)Average annual base rent per square foot is calculated based on base rental revenues recognized during the year on a straight-line basis including non-cash adjustments to base rent required by United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") and the effects of inducements and rent concessions divided by the weighted average total square feet of the consolidated portfolio. Average annual base rent excludes common area maintenance and reimbursements.

(2)The decline in the average annual base rent per square foot in 2020 compared to previous years reflects the decline in occupancy from 97% in 2019 to 92% in 2020 and rent modifications primarily due to a number of tenants filing bankruptcy during 2020.

Lease Expirations

The following table sets forth, as of December 31, 2023, scheduled lease expirations for our consolidated centers, assuming none of the tenants exercise renewal options:

(1)Excludes leases that have been entered into but which tenant has not yet taken possession, vacant space, leases that have turned over but are not open, and temporary leases, totaling in the aggregate approximately 1.9 million square feet of our consolidated centers.

(2)Annualized base rent is defined as the minimum monthly payments due as of the end of the reporting period annualized, excluding periodic contractual fixed increases. Includes rents that are based on a percentage of gross sales in lieu of fixed contractual rents and ground lease rents.

Changes in rental income associated with individual signed leases on comparable spaces may be positive or negative, and we can provide no assurance that the rents on new leases or renewals of existing leases will increase from current levels, if at all.

Expiring leases

The following table sets forth information regarding the expiring leases for our consolidated centers during each of the last five calendar years:

Total Expiring · Renewed by ExistingTenants
Year (1)Square Feet(in 000's)% ofTotal Center Square Feet (2)Square Feet (in 000's)% ofExpiring Square Feet

20211,728151,35979
20201,526131,09672
20191,320111,02081

(1)Excludes data for properties sold in each respective year.

(2)Represents the percentage of total square footage at the beginning of each year that is scheduled to expire during the respective year.

Leasing activity

In 2021, we revised our rent spread presentation from a commenced basis to executed basis and we are presenting it for comparable space. Comparable space excludes leases for space that was vacant for more than 12 months (non-comparable space). We believe that this presentation provides additional information and improves comparability to other retail REITs. Prior period results have been revised to conform with the current period presentation.

The following table sets forth leasing activity for each of the calendar years for comparable space for executed leases for consolidated centers.(1)

(1)For consolidated properties owned as of the period-end date. Represents leases for new stores or renewals that were executed during the respective calendar year and excludes license agreements, seasonal tenants and month-to-month leases.

(2)Represents average initial cash rent (base rent and common area maintenance (“CAM”)).

(3)Represents change in initial and expiring cash rent (base rent and CAM). See above for a description of the change in calculation from prior periods.

Occupancy Costs

We believe that our ratio of average tenant occupancy cost (which includes base rent, common area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance, advertising and promotions) to average sales per square foot is one of the lowest in the retail industry. The following table sets forth for tenants that report sales, for each of the last five calendar years, tenant occupancy costs per square foot as a percentage of reported tenant sales per square foot for our consolidated centers:

YearOccupancy Costs as a% of Tenant Sales
20239.3
20228.6
20218.1
2020N/A (1)
201910.0

(1)As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, retailers' stores were closed for much of the second quarter of 2020 due to mandates by order of local and state authorities. Given the fewer than twelve months of sales reported by our tenants for 2020, an average tenant occupancy cost is not provided for this period.

As of December 31, 2023, our occupancy cost ratio increased to 9.3%. The increase from 2022 predominantly relates to higher tenant occupancy costs.

Tenants

The following table sets forth certain information for our consolidated centers with respect to our 25 largest tenants based on total annualized base rent as of December 31, 2023 (1):
