REGENCY CENTERS CORP

General

Regency Centers Corporation (the "Parent Company") began its operations as a REIT in 1993 and is the general partner of Regency Centers, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"). The Parent Company primarily engages in the ownership, management, leasing, acquisition, development, and redevelopment of shopping centers through the Operating Partnership and has no other assets other than through its investment in the Operating Partnership. Its only indebtedness consists of $200 million of unsecured private placement notes, which are co-issued and guaranteed by the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company guarantees all of the unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership.

As of March 31, 2025, the Parent Company, the Operating Partnership, and their controlled subsidiaries on a consolidated basis owned 381 properties and held partial interests in an additional 102 properties through unconsolidated Investments in real estate partnerships (also referred to as "joint ventures" or "investment partnerships").

Basis of Presentation

The information included in this Report should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Annual Report on Form 10-K”), as certain disclosures in this Report that would duplicate those included in such Annual Report on Form 10-K are not included in these consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly state the results for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are considered to be of a normal recurring nature.

Estimates, Risks and Uncertainties

The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of commitments and contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates in the Company's financial statements relate to the net carrying values of its real estate investments, collectibility of lease income, and acquired lease intangible assets and liabilities. It is possible that the estimates and assumptions that have been utilized in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements could change significantly if economic conditions were to change.

The success of the Company's tenants in operating their businesses and their corresponding ability to pay rent may be influenced by evolving political, economic, trade and immigration policies and macroeconomic uncertainties, and the success of the Company's tenants, in the aggregate, is important to the operating and financial success of the Company. These issues include, but are not limited to, the potential for impacts from tariffs and potential trade disputes, retaliatory actions by other countries, inflation, the cost and availability of labor, including labor shortages related to deportations or threat of deportations, increasing energy prices and interest rates, supply chain disruptions, and access to and cost of capital. Additionally, geopolitical and macroeconomic challenges, including the war involving Russia and Ukraine, the Middle East conflicts and wars, and economic conflicts with China, as well as the slowing of its economy, could impact aspects of the U.S. economy and, therefore, consumer confidence and spending.

The policies implemented by the U.S. government to address these and related issues, including changes by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of its benchmark federal funds rate, increases or decreases in federal government spending, and economic sanctions and tariffs, could result in adverse impacts on the U.S. economy, including inflation, redu ction in consumer confidence and spending, a slowing of growth, and potentially a recession, thereby adversely impacting the costs to our tenants of operating their businesses, demand for their products and services, and their ability to pay rent, and/or decreasing future demand for space in shopping centers, which could adversely impact occupancy rates and rents. The potential impact of current macroeconomic and geopolitical challenges on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is subject to change and continues to depend on the extent and duration of these risks and uncertainties. See Item 1A of Part I of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as supplemented by the discussion in Item 1A of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for a more detailed discussion of the Risk Factors potentially impacting the Company's business and results of operations.

Investment Risk Concentrations

As of March 31, 2025, no single tenant comprised 10% or more of our aggregate annualized base rent ("ABR"). As of March 31, 2025, the Company had three geographic concentrations that individually accounted for at least 10% of its aggregate ABR. Real estate properties located in California, Florida and the New York-Newark-Jersey City core-based statistical area accounted for 23.1%,20.4% and 12.6% of ABR respectively. This geographic concentration makes those portions of the portfolio more susceptibleto adverse weather, natural disasters or economic events that may specifically and disproportionately impact these areas. None of the Regency's shopping centers are located outside the United States.

Consolidation

The Company consolidates properties that are wholly-owned and properties where it owns less than 100% but holds a controlling financial interest in the entity. Controlling financial interest is determined using an evaluation based on accounting standards related to the consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs") and voting interest entities.

Ownership of the Parent Company

The Parent Company currently has a single class of common stock and two series of preferred stock outstanding.

Ownership of the Operating Partnership

The Operating Partnership's capital includes Common Units and Preferred Units. As of March 31, 2025, the Parent Company owned approximately 99.4% of the outstanding Common Units, with the remaining limited partners' Common Units held by third parties ("Exchangeable operating partnership units" or "EOP units"). The Parent Company currently owns all of the Preferred Units.

Real Estate Partnerships

As of March 31, 2025, Regency held partial ownership interests in 121 properties through real estate partnerships, of which 19 are consolidated. Regency's partners include institutional investors, real estate developers and/or operators, and passive investors (the "Partners" or "Limited Partners"). These partnerships have been established to own and operate real estate properties. The Company’s involvement with these entities is through its ownership of its equity interest in the partnerships and management of the properties. The entities were deemed VIEs primarily because the unrelated investors do not have substantive kick-out rights to remove the general or managing partner by a vote of a simple majority or less, and they do not have substantive participating rights. Regency has variable interests in these entities through its equity ownership, with Regency being the primary beneficiary in certain of these real estate partnerships. Regency consolidates the partnerships into its financial statements for which it is the primary beneficiary and reports the limited partners' interests as noncontrolling interests. For those partnerships which Regency is not the primary beneficiary and does not have a controlling financial interest, but has significant influence, Regency recognizes its equity investments in them in accordance with the equity method of accounting.

The assets of these partnerships are restricted to use by the respective partnerships and cannot be directly reached by general creditors of the Company. Similarly, the obligations of the partnerships are backed by, and can only be settled through the assets of these partnerships or by additional capital contributions by the partners, except to the extent that the Company has provided contractual payment guarantees.

The carrying amounts of VIEs' assets and liabilities included in the Company's consolidated financial statements, exclusive of the Operating Partnership, are as follows:

Revenues, and Tenant and other Receivables

Income within Management, transaction, and other fees is primarily derived from contracts with the Company's investments in real estate partnerships. The primary components of these revenue streams, the timing of satisfying the performance obligations, and amounts are as follows:

The accounts receivable for total management, transactions, and other fees, which are included within Tenant and other receivables in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, are$18.0 million and$19.7 million, as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The Company may use derivative financial instruments, including interest swaps, caps, options, floors, and other interest rate derivative contracts, to hedge all or a portion of the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings. The Company does not intend to utilize derivative instruments for speculative transactions or purposes other than mitigation of interest rate risk. The use of derivative financial instruments carries certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements are not able to perform under the agreements. To mitigate this risk, the Company only enters into derivative financial instruments with counterparties that have high credit ratings. The Company does not anticipate that any of the counterparties will fail to meet their obligations.

Detail on the Company's interest rate derivatives outstanding as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is as follows:

Detail on the fair value of the Company's interest rate derivatives as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is as follows:

Derivatives in an asset position are included within Other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, while those in a liability position are included within Accounts payable and other liabilities.

These derivative financial instruments are all interest rate swaps, which are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. As of March 31, 2025, all of the Company's derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges.

The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged interest payments affects earnings.

The following table represents the effect of the derivative financial instruments on the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements:

As of March 31, 2025, the Company expects approximately$1.7 million of accumulated comprehensive income on derivative instruments, including the Company's share from its Investments in real estate partnerships, to be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months.

Substantially all of the Company's leases are classified as operating leases. The Company's Lease income is comprised of both fixed and variable income. Fixed and in-substance fixed lease income includes stated amounts per lease contracts, which are primarily related to base rent, and in some cases stated amounts for common area maintenance ("CAM"), real estate taxes, and insurance (collectively, "Recoverable Costs"). Income for these amounts is recognized on a straight-line basis.

Variable lease income includes the following two main items in the lease contracts:

•

Recoveries from tenants represent the tenants' contractual obligations to reimburse the Company for their portion of Recoverable Costs incurred. Generally, the Company's leases provide for the tenants to reimburse the Company based on the tenants' share of the actual costs incurred in proportion to the tenants' share of leased space in the property.

•

Percentage rent represents amounts billable to tenants based on the tenants' actual sales volume in excess of levels specified in the lease contract.

The following table provides a disaggregation of lease income recognized as either fixed or variable lease income based on the criteria specified in Topic 842:

(1)

The amounts include straight-line rent adjustments associated with converting between cash basis and accrual basis of accounting for certain leases.

The following table represents the components of Tenant and other receivables, net of amounts considered uncollectible, in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets:

(1)

Other receivables include notes receivable, construction receivables, insurance receivables, and amounts due from real estate partnerships for Management, transaction, and other fee income.

(a) Disclosure of Fair Value of Financial Instruments

All financial instruments of the Company are reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at amounts which, in management's estimation, reasonably approximate their fair values, except those instruments listed below:

(1)

The carrying amounts approximated its fair values due to the variable nature of the terms.

The above fair values represent management's estimate of the amounts that would be received from selling those assets or that would be paid to transfer those liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively. These fair value measurements maximize the use of observable inputs which are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. However, in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date, the fair value measurement reflects the Company's own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company develops its judgments based on the best information available at the measurement date, including expected cash flows, appropriate risk-adjusted discount rates, and available observable and unobservable inputs. Service providers involved in fair value measurements are evaluated for competency and qualifications on an ongoing basis. As considerable judgment is often necessary to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments, the fair values presented above are not necessarily indicative of amounts that will be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments.

(b) Fair Value Measurements

The following financial instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Securities

The Company has investments in marketable securities that are included within Other assets on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the securities was determined using quoted prices in active markets, which are considered Level 1 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the value of securities are recorded within Net investment loss (income) in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, and include unrealized losses of$2.4 million and unrealized gains of$2.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Available-for-Sale Debt Securities

Available-for-sale debt securities consist of investments in corporate bonds, and are recorded at fair value using either recent trade prices for the identical debt instrument or comparable instruments by issuers of similar industry sector, issuer rating, and size, to estimate fair value, which are considered Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Unrealized gains or losses on these debt securities are recognized through Other comprehensive income.

Interest Rate Derivatives

The fair value of the Company's interest rate derivatives is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. The Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its interest rate swaps. As a result, the Company determined that its interest rate swaps valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following tables present the placement in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Preferred Stock of the Parent Company

Terms and conditions of the preferred stock outstanding are summarized as follows:

Each series of Preferred Stock is non-voting, has no stated maturity and is redeemable for cash at $25.00 per share at the Company's option. The holders of the Preferred Stock have general preference rights over common stockholders with respect to liquidation and quarterly distributions. Except under certain limited conditions, holders of the Preferred Stock will not be entitled to vote. In the event of a cumulative arrearage equal to six quarterly dividends, holders of the Preferred Stock (voting as a single class without regard to series) will have the right to elect two additional members to serve on the Company's Board of Directors until the arrearage has been cured. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, as defined in the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the holders of the Preferred Stock will have the right to convert all or part of the shares of the Preferred Stock held by such holders on the applicable conversion date into a number of shares of common stock.

Common Stock of the Parent Company

At the Market ("ATM") Program

Under the Parent Company's ATM Program, as authorized by the Board, the Parent Company may sell up to $500 million of common stock at prices determined by the market at the time of sale. The timing of sales, if any, will be dependent on market conditions and other factors.

During 2024, the Company entered into forward sale agreements under its ATM program through which the Parent Company is obligated to issue 1,339,377 shares of its common stock at a weighted average offering price of $74.66 per share before any underwriting discount and offering expenses. The shares under the forward sales agreements must be settled withinone year of their trade dates, which vary by agreement, and range from November 26, 2025, to December 5, 2025. Upon settlement, subject to certain exceptions, the Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to physically settle, cash settle, or net share settle all or any portion of our obligations under any forward sale agreement.

No shares to be issued under the 2024 forward sales agreements have been settled as of March 31, 2025. Proceeds from the issuance of shares are expected to be approximately $100.0 million before any underwriting discount and offering expenses and are expected to be used to fund acquisitions of operating properties, fund developments and redevelopments, and for general corporate purposes.

As of March 31, 2025, and after giving effect to the aforementioned forward equity offering, $400 million of common stock remained available for issuance under this ATM Program.

Stock Repurchase Program

On July 31, 2024, the Board authorized a common stock repurchase program under which the Company may purchase up to a maximum of $250 million of its outstanding common stock through open market transactions, and/or in privately negotiated transactions (referred to as the "Repurchase Program"). The timing and price of stock repurchases, if any, are dependent upon market conditions and other factors. The stock repurchased, if not retired, is treated as treasury stock. The Board's authorization for the Repurchase Program expires on June 30, 2026, unless modified, extended or earlier terminated by the Board in its discretion.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company madeno repurchases and$250 million remained available under the Repurchase Program.

Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership

The number of Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units, respectively, issued by the Operating Partnership is equal to the number of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, respectively, issued by the Parent Company.

Common Units of the Operating Partnership

Common Units are issued, or redeemed and retired, for each share of the Parent Company stock issued or redeemed, or retired, as described above.

The Company granted 305,041 shares of restricted stock with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of$77.61 per share and 322,159 shares of restricted stock with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $60.31 per share during thethree months ended March 31, 2025 and the three months ended March 31, 2024, respectively. The Company records stock-based compensation expense within General and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, and recognizes forfeitures as they occur.

In addition, during thethree months ended March 31, 2024, the Company expensed$1.9 million within Other operating expenses in connection with vesting of restricted stock units related to the 2023 acquisition of UBP.

Parent Company Earnings per Share

The following summarizes the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

(1)

Includes the dilutive impact of unvested restricted stock.

The effect of the assumed exchange of the EOP units and certain other exchangeable units had an anti-dilutive effect upon the calculation of net income attributable to the common shareholders per share. Accordingly, the impact of such assumed exchanges has not been included in the determination of diluted net income per share calculations. Weighted average EOP units outstanding were 1,096,659 and 1,101,104 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Operating Partnership Earnings per Unit

The following summarizes the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per unit ("EPU"):

(1)

Includes the dilutive impact of unvested restricted stock.

The effect of the assumed exchange of certain other exchangeable units had an anti-dilutive effect upon the calculation of net income attributable to the common unit holders per share. Accordingly, the impact of such assumed exchanges has not been included in the determination of diluted net income per unit calculations.

The Company's portfolio is located throughout the United States. Management does not distinguish or group its operations on a geographical basis for purposes of allocating resources or capital. The Company’s chief operating decision maker ("CODM") evaluates operating and financial performance for each property on an individual property level; therefore, the Company defines an operating segment as its individual properties. The individual properties have been aggregated intoone reportable segment based upon their similarities with regard to both the nature and economics of the centers, tenants and operational processes, as well as long-term average financial performance.

The following tables provide information about the Company's reportable segment's revenues, significant expenses, NOI and the reconciliation of NOI to the Company’s consolidated Net income:

(1)

Operating expenses include Operating and maintenance, Ground rent and Termination expense

Litigation

The Company is a party to litigation and other disputes that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of any particular lawsuit or dispute cannot be predicted with certainty, in the opinion of management, the Company's currently pending litigation and disputes are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.

Environmental

The Company is subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations. With respect to applicability to the Company, these pertain primarily to chemicals historically used by certain current and former dry cleaning tenants, the existence of asbestos in older shopping centers, underground petroleum storage tanks and other historic land uses. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on its financial position, liquidity, or operations. The Company can give no assurance that existing environmental studies with respect to its shopping centers have revealed all potential environmental contamination; that its estimate of liabilities will not change as more information becomes available; that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to the Company; that the current environmental condition of the shopping centers will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties; and that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to the Company.

The Company had accrued liabilities of$17.1 million and$17.3 million for environmental remediation, which arei ncluded in Accounts payable, and other liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Letters of Credit

The Company has the right to issue letters of credit under the Line up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $50.0 million, which reduces the credit availability under the Line. These letters of credit are primarily issued as collateral on behalf of its captive insurance subsidiary and to facilitate the construction of development projects. The Company had$10.9 million in letters of credit outstanding as of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
