Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial position and results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company’s subsidiaries include the Operating Partnership and the subsidiaries that are wholly owned or in which the Company has a controlling interest, including where the Company has been determined to be a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE") in accordance with the consolidation guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are necessary for the fair presentation of the financial condition, and results of operations for the interim periods presented.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the requirements for interim financial information. Accordingly, these interim financial statements have not been audited and exclude certain disclosures required for annual financial statements. Also, the operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed. Such estimates are based on management’s historical experience and best judgment after considering past, current, and expected events and economic conditions. Actual results could differ significantly from management’s estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted:

Segment Reporting

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 as an update to ASC Topic 280, which will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2023-07 requires an entity to disclose significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker, a description of "other segment items," and the title and position of the chief operating decision maker, and allows for more than one measure of a segment's profit or loss if used by the chief operating decision maker. The update also enhances interim disclosure requirements and requirements for entities with a single reportable segment. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 as an update to ASC Topic 740, which will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2023-09 enhances the disclosures surrounding income taxes, specifically in relation to the rate reconciliation table and income taxes paid. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

Other Accounting Policies

See the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for a description of other accounting principles upon which basis the accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared.

3. Segments

The Company operates its business infive reportable segments: (i) retail real estate, (ii) office real estate, (iii) multifamily real estate, (iv) general contracting and real estate services, and (v) real estate financing. Refer to Note 1 for the composition of properties within each property segment.

Net operating income ("NOI") is the primary measure used by the Company’s chief operating decision-maker to assess segment performance. NOI is calculated as segment revenues less segment expenses. Segment revenues include rental revenues for the property segments, general contracting and real estate services revenues for the general contracting and real estate services segment, and interest income for the real estate financing segment. Segment expenses include rental expenses and real estate taxes for the property segments, general contracting and real estate services expenses for the general contracting and real estate services segment, and interest expense for the real estate financing segment. Segment NOI for the general contracting and real estate services and real estate financing segments is also referred to as segment gross profit as illustrated in the table below. NOI is not a measure of operating income or cash flows from operating activities as measured by GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. As a result, NOI should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies calculate NOI in the same manner. The Company considers NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it assists both investors and management in understanding the core operations of the Company’s real estate, construction, and real estate financing businesses.

Since the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company retrospectively reclassified certain components of mixed-use properties between the retail, office, and multifamily real estate segments in order to align the components of those properties with their tenant composition. As a result, NOI for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased $0.4 million and less than $0.1 million for the retail and office real estate segments, respectively, and decreased $0.4 million for the multifamily real estate segment. These reclassifications had no effect on total property NOI as previously reported. These reclassifications also had no impact on our general contracting and real estate services or real estate financing segments.

The following table presents NOI for the Company'sfive reportable segments for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

(a) Interest expense within the real estate financing segment is allocated based on the average outstanding principal of notes receivable in the real estate financing portfolio and the effective interest rates on the credit facility, the M&T term loan facility, and the TD term loan facility, each as defined in Note 9.

The following table reconciles NOI to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

(a) Excludes real estate financing segment interest income of $4.0 million and $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

(b) Excludes real estate financing segment interest expense of $1.3 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Rental expenses represent costs directly associated with the operation and management of the Company’s real estate properties. Rental expenses include asset management expenses, property management fees, repairs and maintenance, insurance, and utilities.

General contracting and real estate services revenues and expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 exclude revenues and expenses related to intercompany construction contracts of $8.4 million and $8.3 million, respectively, which are eliminated in consolidation. General contracting and real estate services expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 exclude revenues and expenses related to intercompany construction contracts of $13.7 million and $13.5 million, respectively, which are eliminated in consolidation.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $8.5 million, $8.0 million, and $3.7 million for the retail, office, and multifamily real estate segments, respectively. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $8.2 million, $7.0 million, and $3.2 million for the retail, office, and multifamily real estate segments, respectively.

General and administrative expenses represent costs not directly associated with the operation and management of the Company’s real estate properties, general contracting and real estate services, and real estate financing businesses. These costs include corporate office personnel compensation and benefits, bank fees, accounting fees, legal fees, and other corporate office expenses.

Interest expense on secured property debt for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $2.8 million, $3.2 million, and $3.6 million for the retail, office, and multifamily real estate segments, respectively. Interest expense on secured property debt for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $2.4 million, $2.2 million, and $2.4 million for the retail, office, and multifamily real estate segments, respectively.

As of March 31, 2024, the net carrying amount of consolidated real estate investments was $685.7 million, $625.9 million, and $394.4 million for the retail, office, and multifamily real estate segments, respectively, which excludes $102.1 million attributable to our mixed-use development project, Southern Post.

4. Leases

Lessee Disclosures

As a lessee, the Company hasnine ground leases onnine properties. These ground leases have maximum lease terms (including renewal options) that expire between 2074 and 2117. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company's sole discretion. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term. Five of these leases have been classified as operating leases andfour of these leases have been classified as finance leases. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Lessor Disclosures

As a lessor, the Company leases its properties under operating leases and recognizes base rents on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company also recognizes revenue from tenant recoveries, through which tenants reimburse the Company on an accrual basis for certain expenses such as utilities, janitorial services, repairs and maintenance, security and alarms, parking lot and ground maintenance, administrative services, management fees, insurance, and real estate taxes. Rental revenues are reduced by the amount of any leasing incentives amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the applicable lease. In addition, the Company recognizes contingent rental revenue (e.g., percentage rents based on tenant sales thresholds) when the sales thresholds are met. Many tenant leases includeone or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term fromone to 25 years, or more. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the tenant's sole discretion. The Company includes a renewal period in the lease term only if it appears at lease inception that the renewal is reasonably assured.

5. Real Estate Investments

The Company did not acquire or dispose of any properties during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

6. Equity Method Investments

Harbor Point Parcel 3

The Company owns a 50% interest in Harbor Point Parcel 3, a joint venture with Beatty Development Group, for purposes of developing T. Rowe Price's new global headquarters office building in Baltimore, Maryland. The Company is a noncontrolling partner in the joint venture and will serve as the project's general contractor. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company invested $0.7 million in Harbor Point Parcel 3. The Company has an estimated equity commitment of up to $47.0 million relating to this project. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying value of the Company's investment in Harbor Point Parcel 3 was $41.4 million and $40.7 million, respectively, which excludes $2.3 million and $2.2 million, respectively, of intra-entity profits eliminated in consolidation. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, Harbor Point Parcel 3 had no operating activity; therefore, the Company received no allocated income.

Based on the terms of the operating agreement, the Company has concluded that Harbor Point Parcel 3 is a VIE and that the Company holds a variable interest. The Company has significant influence over the project due to its 50% ownership interest; however, the Company does not have the power to direct the activities of the project that most significantly impact its performance. This includes activity as the managing member of the entity, which is a power that is retained by the Company's joint venture partner. Accordingly, the Company is not the project's primary beneficiary and, therefore, does not consolidate Harbor Point Parcel 3 in its consolidated financial statements. The Company's investment in the project is recorded as an equity method investment in the consolidated balance sheets.

Harbor Point Parcel 4

On April 1, 2022, the Company acquired a 78% interest in Harbor Point Parcel 4, a real estate venture with Beatty Development Group, for purposes of developing a mixed-use project ("Allied | Harbor Point"), which is planned to include multifamily units, retail space, and a parking garage.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, Harbor Point Parcel 4 had no operating activity; therefore, the Company received no allocated income.

Based on the terms of the operating agreement, the Company has concluded that Harbor Point Parcel 4 is a VIE and that the Company holds a variable interest. The Company has significant influence over the project due to its 78% ownership interest; however, the Company does not have the power to direct the activities of the project that most significantly impact its performance. This includes activity as the managing member of the entity, which is a power that is retained by the Company's partner. Accordingly, the Company is not the project's primary beneficiary and, therefore, does not consolidate Harbor Point Parcel 4 in its consolidated financial statements. The Company's investment in the project is recorded as an equity method investment in the consolidated balance sheets.

(a) Includes recognition of interest income related to fee amortization.

(b) Includes recognition of unused commitment fees.

(c) This note receivable was redeemed on May 19, 2023 in connection with the Company’s acquisition of The Interlock.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through its real estate financing investments. As of March 31, 2024, the Company hadfive real estate financing investments, which are financing development projects in various stages of completion or lease-up. Each of these projects is subject to a loan that is senior to the Company’s loan. Interest on these loans is paid in kind and is generally not expected to be paid until a sale of the project after completion of the development.

The Company's management performs a quarterly analysis of the loan portfolio to determine the risk of credit loss based on

the progress of development activities, including leasing activities, projected development costs, and current and projected

subordinated and senior loan balances. The Company estimates future losses on its notes receivable using risk

ratings that correspond to probabilities of default and loss given default. The Company's risk ratings are as follows:

•Pass: loans in this category are adequately collateralized by a development project with conditions materially consistent with the Company's underwriting assumptions.

•Special Mention: loans in this category show signs that the economic performance of the project may suffer as a result of slower-than-expected leasing activity or an extended development or marketing timeline. Loans in this category warrant increased monitoring by management.

•Substandard: loans in this category may not be fully collected by the Company unless remediation actions are taken. Remediation actions may include obtaining additional collateral or assisting the borrower with asset management activities to prepare the project for sale. The Company will also consider placing the loan on non-accrual status if it does not believe that additional interest accruals will ultimately be collected.

The Company updated the risk ratings for each of its notes receivable as of March 31, 2024 and obtained industry loan loss data relative to these risk ratings. Each of the outstanding loans as of March 31, 2024 was "Pass" rated. The Company's analysis resulted in an allowance for loan losses of approximately $2.3 million as of March 31, 2024, of which an allowance related to unfunded commitments of approximately $0.6 million as of March 31, 2024 was recorded as Other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

At March 31, 2024, the Company reported $109.3 million of notes receivable, net of allowances of $1.7 million. At December 31, 2023, the Company reported $94.2 million of notes receivable, net of allowances of $1.5 million. Changes in the allowance for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows (in thousands):

The Company places loans on non-accrual status when the loan balance, together with the balance of any senior loan, approximately equals the estimated realizable value of the underlying development project. As of March 31, 2024, there wereno loans on non-accrual status.

8. Construction Contracts

Construction contract costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings represent reimbursable costs and amounts earned under contracts in progress as of the balance sheet date.

The revolving credit facility bears interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus a margin ranging from 1.30% to 1.85% and a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, and the term loan facility bears interest at SOFR plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.80% and a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, in each case depending on the Company's total leverage. The Company is also obligated to pay an unused commitment fee of 15 or 25 basis points on the unused portions of the commitments under the revolving credit facility, depending on the amount of borrowings under the revolving credit facility. If the Company or the Operating Partnership attains investment grade credit ratings from both S&P Global Ratings and Moody's Investors Service, Inc., the Operating Partnership may elect to have borrowings become subject to interest rates based on such credit ratings.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and financial and other affirmative and negative covenants. The Company's ability to borrow under the credit facility is subject to ongoing compliance with a number of financial covenants, affirmative covenants, and other restrictions. The Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, in certain cases subject to customary cure periods. The occurrence of an event of default, if not cured within the applicable cure period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the unpaid principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and all other amounts payable under the credit facility to be immediately due and payable.

10. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company enters into interest rate derivative contracts to manage exposure to interest rate risks. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Derivative financial instruments are recognized at fair value and presented within other assets and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives that are neither designated nor qualify as hedging instruments are recognized within the change in fair value of derivatives and other in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. For derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the periods during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company heldone interest rate cap corridor. The Company purchased a SOFR interest rate cap at 1.00% and sold a SOFR interest rate cap at 3.00%, resulting in a SOFR interest rate cap corridor of 1.00% to 3.00%, effective on September 1, 2022. This corridor is designated as a cash flow hedge. The intended goal of this corridor is to provide a level of protection from the effect of rising interest rates and reduce the all-in-cost of the derivative instrument. The Company paid a premium of $1.4 million to purchase the corridor. As of March 31, 2024, the notional amount was $73.6 million, which is the maximum notional amount. The corridor is scheduled to mature on September 1, 2024.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company held the following floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps ($ in thousands):

(a) Designated as a cash flow hedge.

(b) This interest rate swap agreement reduces the Company's interest rate exposure on the $180.4 million senior construction loan secured by the Company's Harbor Point Parcel 3 equity method investment as described in Note 6. As such, the loan is not reflected on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company also paid $3.6 million to reduce the swap fixed rate.

(c) The Company paid $13.3 million to reduce the swap fixed rate.

(d) This interest rate swap agreement reduces the Company's interest rate exposure on the $109.7 million senior construction loan secured by the Company's Harbor Point Parcel 4 equity method investment as described in Note 6.

(g) The Company novated the existing 3.43% fixed rate swap with a $100.0 million notional amount and assigned $21.0 million to the loan secured by Liberty Retail & Apartments, effective February 1, 2024.

For the interest rate swaps and caps designated as cash flow hedges, realized gains and losses are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income due to payments received from and paid to the counterparty. During the next 12 months, the Company anticipates recognizing approximately $4.2 million of net hedging gains as reductions to interest expense. These amounts will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings to offset the variability of the hedged items during this period.

13. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value measurements are based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. The hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value is as follows:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

Level 3 — unobservable inputs

Except as disclosed below, the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair values. Financial assets and liabilities whose fair values are measured on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs consist of interest rate swaps and caps. The Company measures the fair values of these assets and liabilities based on prices provided by independent market participants that are based on observable inputs using market-based valuation techniques.

Financial assets and liabilities whose fair values are not measured at fair value but for which the fair value is disclosed include the Company's notes receivable and indebtedness. The fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at estimated market rates consistent with the maturity, credit characteristics, and other terms of the arrangements, which are Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy.

In certain cases, the inputs used to estimate the fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. For disclosure purposes, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Considerable judgment is used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. The estimates of fair value presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments.

The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were as follows (in thousands):

(a) Excludes $9.4 million and $10.4 million of deferred financing costs as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

15. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

The Company is from time to time involved in various disputes, lawsuits, warranty claims, environmental, and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Management makes assumptions and estimates concerning the likelihood and amount of any potential loss relating to these matters.

The Company currently is a party to various legal proceedings, none of which management expects will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Management accrues a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is determined to be probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. If an unfavorable outcome is determined to be probable and a range of loss can be reasonably estimated, management accrues the best estimate within the range; however, if no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the minimum amount within the range is accrued. Legal fees related to litigation are expensed as incurred. Management does not believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations; however, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties.
