Current report
During and subsequent to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, two experiential lodging properties located in St. Pete Beach, Florida that we hold as equity investments through joint ventures, were significantly damaged by two weather events. On September 26, 2024, Hurricane Helene made landfall on St. Pete Beach as a Category 3 storm and damaged the joint ventures' experiential lodging properties. On October 9, 2024, further damage was caused by Hurricane Milton. The properties will remain closed as the joint ventures continue to assess and repair damage and we do not anticipate that the properties will re-open until well into 2025. We plan to work in good faith with our joint venture partners, the non-recourse debt provider and the insurance companies to identify a path forward which we expect will result in the eventual removal of both experiential properties from our portfolio. Accordingly, we determined that our investment in these joint ventures had no fair value and was not recoverable, and during the third quarter of 2024, recognized $12.1 million in other-than-temporary impairment charges on joint ventures related to these equity investments.

Current report
(5) The increase in interest expense, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 resulted primarily from an increase in average borrowings and an increase in our weighted average interest rate on outstanding debt due to borrowings on our unsecured revolving credit facility.

Current report
(7) The increase in impairment charges on joint ventures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 related to other-than-temporary impairments of our equity investments in two joint ventures holding two experiential lodging properties located in St. Pete Beach, Florida due to hurricane damage described above.
Current report
On September 19, 2024, we entered into the Amended Credit Agreement providing for a new amended and restated senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The Amended Credit Agreement amended, restated and replaced our prior senior unsecured revolving credit facility provided under the Third Amended, Restated and Consolidated Credit Agreement. The amendments to the prior facility, among other things: (i) extended the maturity date of the revolving credit facility; (ii) generally reduced the interest rate payable on outstanding loans; (iii) eliminated the tangible net worth covenant; (iv) modified the secured debt to total assets financial covenant to permit increased secured debt if we so elect; and (v) modified and simplified the capitalization rates used to value assets under the facility.
Current report
In connection with entering into the Amended Credit Agreement, we incurred $9.0 million in fees that were capitalized in deferred financing costs and amortized as part of the effective yield. These fees are included in "Other assets" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2024. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we also recorded a non-cash write-off of deferred financing costs (net of accumulated amortization), totaling $0.3 million to "Costs associated with loan refinancing or payoff" in connection with entering into the Amended Credit Agreement.

(3) The change in provision (benefit) for credit losses, net for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023 was due to credit loss expense related to new mortgage notes funded in 2024 and 2023 and changes in macro-economic factors included in our forward-looking commercial real estate forecasting tool used to estimate our current expected credit losses.

This was partially offset by acquisitions and developments completed in 2024 and 2023.

REITs are generally experiencing heightened risks and uncertainties resulting from current challenging economic conditions, including significant volatility and negative pressure in financial and capital markets, higher cost of capital, high inflation and other risks and uncertainties associated with the current economic environment. Although we intend to continue making future investments, we expect our levels of investment spending to be reduced in the near-term due to elevated costs of capital, and near-term investments will be funded primarily from cash on hand, excess cash flow, disposition proceeds and borrowing availability under our unsecured revolving credit facility, subject to maintaining our leverage levels consistent with past practice. As a result, we intend to continue to be more selective in making future investments and acquisitions until such time as economic conditions improve and our cost of capital improves.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes. In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of real estate, accounting for real estate acquisitions, assessing the collectibility of receivables and the credit loss related to mortgage and other notes receivable. Application of these assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. A summary of critical accounting policies and estimates is included in our 2023 Annual Report. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no changes to critical accounting policies.

Additionally, the facility fee on the revolving credit facility is 0.25%.

Our unsecured revolving credit facility and the private placement notes contain financial covenants or restrictions that limit our levels of consolidated debt, secured debt, investments outside certain categories, stock repurchases and dividend distributions and require us to maintain a minimum consolidated tangible net worth and meet certain coverage levels for fixed charges and debt service. Additionally, these debt instruments contain cross-default provisions if we default under other indebtedness exceeding certain amounts.

Long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of debt maturities. We have $136.6 million of debt maturities due August 22, 2024. We currently believe that we will be able to repay, extend, refinance or otherwise settle our debt maturities as the debt comes due and that we will be able to fund our remaining commitments, as necessary. However, there can be no assurance that additional financing or capital will be available, or that terms will be acceptable or advantageous to us, particularly in light of the challenging economic environment and our elevated cost of capital.

The effect of the conversion of our convertible preferred shares is calculated using the if-converted method and the conversion, which results in the most dilution is included in the computation of per share amounts. The conversion of the 5.75% Series C cumulative convertible preferred shares and the 9.00% Series E cumulative convertible preferred shares would be dilutive to FFO, FFOAA and AFFO per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023. Therefore, the additional common shares that would result from the conversion and the corresponding add-back of the preferred dividends declared on those shares are included in the calculation of diluted FFO and FFOAA per share and would be included in a calculation of AFFO per share.
