1. Presentation of Financial Statements and Significant Accounting Policies
General These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. (HHH or the Company) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). References to HHH, the Company, we, us, and our refer to Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, which includes The Howard Hughes Corporation (HHC), unless otherwise specifically stated. References to HHC refer to The Howard Hughes Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries unless otherwise specifically stated.
In accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Readers of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q (Quarterly Report) should refer to the Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. audited Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included in its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2024 (the Annual Report). In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and equity for the interim periods have been included. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024, and future fiscal years.
Seaport Entertainment Spinoff On July 31, 2024, the spinoff of Seaport Entertainment Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (Seaport Entertainment or SEG) was completed. SEG included HHH’s entertainment-related assets in New York and Las Vegas, including the Seaport in Lower Manhattan, the Las Vegas Aviators Triple-A Minor League Baseball team and the Las Vegas Ballpark, as well as the Company’s ownership stake in Jean-Georges Restaurants and other partnerships, and an interest in and to 80% of the air rights above the Fashion Show Mall in Las Vegas.
Under the terms of the separation, each stockholder who held HHH common stock as of the close of business on July 29, 2024, the record date for the distribution, received one share of SEG common stock for every nine shares of HHH common stock held as of the close of business on such date. SEG common stock began trading on the NYSE American stock exchange on August 1, 2024, under the symbol “SEG”.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions. The Company also consolidates certain variable interest entities (VIEs) in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 810 Consolidation. The outside equity interests in certain entities controlled by the Company are reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as noncontrolling interests.
As the spinoff of SEG represents a strategic shift in the Company’s operations, the results of SEG are presented as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and, as such, have been excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented. Additionally, the related SEG assets and liabilities are classified as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss), and Equity are presented on a consolidated basis for both continuing operations and discontinued operations. The disclosures presented in the notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented on a continuing operations basis unless otherwise noted. See Note 2 -Discontinued Operations for additional information.
Management has evaluated for disclosure or recognition all material events occurring subsequent to the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements up to the date and time this Quarterly Report was filed.
Restricted Cash Restricted cash reflects amounts segregated in escrow accounts in the name of the Company, primarily related to escrowed condominium deposits by buyers and other amounts related to taxes, insurance, and legally restricted security deposits and leasing costs.

Accounts Receivable, net Accounts receivable, net includes straight-line rent receivables, tenant receivables, and other receivables. On a quarterly basis, management reviews the lease-related receivables, including straight-line rent receivables and tenant receivables, for collectability. This analysis includes a review of past due accounts and considers factors such as the credit quality of tenants, current economic conditions, and changes in customer payment trends. When full collection of a lease-related receivable or future lease payment is deemed to be not probable, a reserve for the receivable balance is charged against rental revenue and future rental revenue is recognized on a cash basis. The Company also records reserves for estimated losses if the estimated loss amount is probable and can be reasonably estimated.
Other receivables are primarily related to short-term trade receivables. The Company is exposed to credit losses through the sale of goods and services to customers and assesses its exposure to credit loss related to these receivables on a quarterly basis based on historical collection experience and future expectations by portfolio. The Company records an allowance for credit losses if the estimated loss amount is probable.
The following table represents the components of Accounts receivable, net of amounts considered uncollectible, in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:
| thousands | September 30, 2024 | December 31, 2023 |
|---|---|---|
| Straight-line rent receivables | $89,629 | $84,316 |
| Tenant receivables | 3,281 | 5,493 |
| Other receivables | 8,374 | 11,564 |
| Accounts receivable, net (a) | $101,284 | $101,373 |
(a)As of September 30, 2024, the total reserve balance for amounts considered uncollectible was $7.8 million, comprised of $7.7 million attributable to lease-related receivables and $0.1 million attributable to the allowance for credit losses related to other accounts receivables. As of December 31, 2023, the total reserve balance was $13.6 million, all of which was attributable to lease-related receivables.
The following table summarizes the impacts of the collectability reserves in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations:

| Income Statement Location | 2024 | 2023 | 2024 | 2023 |

| Total (income) expense impact | $(236) | $2,404 | $(873) | $4,327 |
Sale of MUD Receivables In September 2024, the Company entered into a sales transaction of MUD receivables, in which it transferred the reimbursement rights for $193.4 million of existing MUD receivables and $10.4 million of related accrued interest, as well as $32.6 million of anticipated future MUD receivables, for total cash consideration of $176.7 million. Using the relative fair value method, $152.3 million of the cash consideration was allocated to the sale of the existing MUD receivables and $24.4 million was allocated to the sale of the anticipated future MUD receivables. On the settlement date, the Company derecognized the existing MUD receivables and related accrued interest, resulting in a loss on sale of $51.5 million in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company has recorded a liability related to the allocated amount of anticipated future MUD receivables, which will be accounted for using the amortized cost method and is included in Accounts payable and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the future cash flows used in impairment analysis and fair value used in impairment calculations, allocation of capitalized development costs, provision for income taxes, recoverable amounts of receivables and deferred tax assets, initial valuations of tangible and intangible assets acquired, and the related useful lives of assets upon which depreciation and amortization is based. Estimates and assumptions have also been made with respect to future revenues and costs, and the fair value of warrants, debt, and options granted. In particular, Master Planned Communities (MPC) cost of sales estimates are highly judgmental as they are sensitive to cost escalation, sales price escalation, and lot absorption, which are subject to judgment and affected by expectations about future market or economic conditions. Actual results could differ from these and other estimates.

Consolidated Variable Interest Entity At September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company owned an 88.0% interest in Teravalis, the Company’s newest large-scale master planned community in the West Valley of Phoenix, Arizona, and a third party owned the remaining 12.0%. Teravalis was determined to be a VIE, and as the Company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact its economic performance, the Company is considered the primary beneficiary and consolidates Teravalis.
Under the terms of the LLC agreement, cash distributions and the recognition of income-producing activities will be pro rata based on economic ownership interest. As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included $541.9 million of Master Planned Community assets, $0.3 million of Accounts payable and other liabilities, and $65.1 million of Noncontrolling interest related to Teravalis. As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included $541.6 million of Master Planned Community assets, $0.6 million of Accounts payable and other liabilities, and $65.0 million of Noncontrolling interest related to Teravalis.
Noncontrolling Interests As of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, noncontrolling interests related to the 12.0% noncontrolling interest in Teravalis and the noncontrolling interest in the Ward Village Homeowners’ Associations (HOAs). All revenues and expenses related to the HOAs are attributable to noncontrolling interests and do not impact net income attributable to common stockholders.
Financing Receivable Credit Losses The Company is exposed to credit losses through the sale of goods and services to the Company’s customers. Receivables held by the Company primarily relate to short-term trade receivables, discussed above, and financing receivables, which include MUD receivables, Special Improvement District (SID) bonds, Tax Increment Financing (TIF) receivables, net investments in lease receivables, and notes receivable. The Company assesses its exposure to credit loss based on historical collection experience and future expectations by portfolio segment. Historical collection experience is evaluated on a quarterly basis by the Company.
The amortized cost basis of financing receivables, consisting primarily of MUD receivables, totaled $528.4 million as of September 30, 2024, and $632.8 million as of December 31, 2023. The MUD receivable balance included accrued interest of $41.9 million as of September 30, 2024, and $35.8 million as of December 31, 2023. There was no material activity in the allowance for credit losses for financing receivables for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Financing receivables are considered to be past due once they are 30 days contractually past due under the terms of the agreement. The Company does not have significant receivables that are past due or on nonaccrual status. There have been no significant write-offs or recoveries of amounts previously written off during the current period for financing receivables.
Stock-Based Compensation Prior to the spinoff of SEG, the Company had outstanding share-based compensation awards (Awards) in the form of stock options and restricted stock awards (RSAs), which were settleable in shares of common stock of HHH. At the time of the spinoff, all of these Awards were modified to adjust the number of HHH shares by certain ratios and/or allocation factors. The stock options were modified into HHH stock options and SEG stock options based on the applicable ratios and/or allocation factors. In addition, the growth targets for the RSAs based on Net Asset Value and related performance conditions were revised to carve out the impact of the spinoff. Also, the market conditions related to Total Shareholder Return (TSR) targets were evaluated as of the spinoff date for the TSR-based RSAs and then modified to time-based, service conditions only. Although all Awards were modified, the impact on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was not material.
2. Discontinued Operations
On July 31, 2024, the spinoff of SEG was completed. The separation of SEG refined the identity of HHH as a pure-play real estate company focused solely on its core businesses and development of its master planned communities. The spinoff included all assets previously included in the Company’s Seaport segment and the Las Vegas Aviators and the Las Vegas Ballpark, which were previously included in the Operating Assets segment. As the spinoff of SEG represents a strategic shift in the Company’s operations, the results of SEG are included as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Seaport Entertainment Guaranty Following the execution of the spinoff, HHH continues to provide a full backstop guaranty for SEG’s outstanding mortgage related to its 250 Water Street property. See Note 10 -Commitments and Contingencies for additional information.

3. Investments in Unconsolidated Ventures
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into partnerships and ventures with an emphasis on investments associated with the development and operation of real estate assets.

The Company recognized an incremental equity method investment at fair value and recognized a gain of $13.5 million recorded in Equity in earnings (losses) from unconsolidated ventures. This gain is the result of marking the cost basis of the land contributed to its estimated fair value at the time of contribution. The Phase II land is adjacent to the existing Summit development and includes approximately 28 custom home sites. The first lot sales closed in the first quarter of 2023. The Company recognizes its share of income or loss for Phase II based on the joint venture’s distribution priorities in the amended Summit LLC agreement, which could fluctuate over time. Upon receipt of the Company’s preferred returns, distributions and recognition of income or loss will be allocated to the Company based on its final profit-sharing interest.
Floreo In the fourth quarter of 2021, simultaneous with the Teravalis land acquisition, the Company closed on the acquisition of a 50% interest in Trillium Development Holding Company, LLC (Floreo) for $59.0 million and entered into a Limited Liability Company Agreement (LLC Agreement) with JDM Partners and El Dorado Holdings to develop Floreo, the first village within the new Teravalis MPC, on 3,029 acres of land in the greater Phoenix, Arizona area. The first land sales closed in the first quarter of 2024.
In October 2022, Floreo closed on a $165.0 million financing, with outstanding borrowings of $132.6 million as of September 30, 2024. The Company provided a guaranty on this financing in the form of a collateral maintenance obligation and received a guaranty fee of $5.0 million. The financing and related guaranty provided by the Company triggered a reconsideration event and as of December 31, 2022, Floreo was classified as a VIE. Due to rights held by other members, the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in Floreo and is not the primary beneficiary. As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss on this investment is limited to the $58.6 million aggregate carrying value as the Company has not made any other firm commitments to fund amounts on behalf of this VIE, and cash collateral that the Company may be obligated to post related to its collateral maintenance obligation. See Note 10 -Commitments and Contingenciesfor additional information related to the Company’s collateral maintenance obligation.
West End Alexandria In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company entered into an Asset Contribution Agreement with Landmark Land Holdings, LLC (West End Alexandria) to redevelop a 52-acre site previously known as Landmark Mall. Other equity owners include Foulger-Pratt Development, LLC (Foulger-Pratt) and Seritage SRC Finance (Seritage). The Company conveyed its 33-acre Landmark Mall property with an agreed upon fair value of $56.0 million and Seritage conveyed an additional 19 acres of land with an agreed upon fair value of $30.0 million to West End Alexandria in exchange for equity interest. Additionally, Foulger-Pratt agreed to contribute $10.0 million to West End Alexandria. Also in the fourth quarter of 2021, West End Alexandria executed a Purchase and Sale Agreement with the City of Alexandria to sell approximately 11 acres to the City of Alexandria. The City will lease this land to Inova Health Care Services for construction of a new hospital.
Development plans for the remaining 41-acre property include approximately four million square feet of residential, retail, commercial, and entertainment offerings integrated into a cohesive neighborhood with a central plaza, a network of parks and public transportation. Foulger-Pratt will manage construction of the development. Demolition began in the second quarter of 2022 and was completed in 2023, with completion of infrastructure work expected in 2025.
The Company does not have the ability to control the activities that most impact the economic performance of the venture as Foulger-Pratt is the managing member and manages all development activities. As such, the Company accounts for its ownership interest in accordance with the equity method.

Dispositions Gains and losses on asset dispositions are recorded to Gain (loss) on sale or disposal of real estate and other assets, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, unless otherwise noted.
Operating Assets In February 2024, the Company completed the sale of Creekside Park Medical Plaza, a 32,689 square-foot medical office building in The Woodlands, Texas, for $14.0 million, resulting in a gain of $4.8 million.
In December 2023, the Company completed the sale of Memorial Hermann Medical Office, a 20,000 square-foot medical office building in The Woodlands, Texas, for $9.6 million, resulting in a gain of $3.2 million.
In July 2023, the Company completed the sale oftwo self-storage facilities with a total of 1,370 storage units in The Woodlands, Texas, for $30.5 million, resulting in a gain of $16.1 million.
In March 2023, the Company completed the sale oftwo land parcels in Honolulu, Hawai‘i, including an 11,929-square-foot building at the Ward Village Retail property, for total consideration of $6.3 million, resulting in a gain of $4.7 million.
5. Impairment
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for potential impairment indicators when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment or disposal of long‑lived assets in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, requires that if impairment indicators exist and expected undiscounted cash flows generated by the asset over an anticipated holding period are less than its carrying amount, an impairment provision should be recorded to write down the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. The impairment analysis does not consider the timing of future cash flows and whether the asset is expected to earn an above- or below-market rate of return. No impairment charges were recorded in continuing operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
The Company periodically evaluates strategic alternatives with respect to each property and may revise the strategy from time to time, including the intent to hold the asset on a long-term basis or the timing of potential asset dispositions. For example, the Company may decide to sell property that is held for use, and the sale price may be less than the carrying amount. As a result, changes in strategy could result in impairment charges in future periods.
The Company evaluates each investment in an unconsolidated venture discussed in Note 3 -Investments in Unconsolidated Ventures periodically for recoverability and valuation declines that are other-than-temporary. If the decrease in value of an investment is deemed to be other-than-temporary, the investment is reduced to its estimated fair value. No impairment charges were recorded in continuing operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
During the third quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a $709.5 million impairment charge related to the Seaport segment, which is now reported in discontinued operations following the spinoff of SEG.

As of September 30, 2024, land, buildings and equipment, developments, and other collateral with a net book value of $5.0 billion have been pledged as collateral for the Company’s mortgages, notes, and loans payable.
Senior Unsecured Notes During 2020 and 2021, the Company issued $2.1 billion of aggregate principal of senior unsecured notes. These notes have fixed rates of interest that are payable semi-annually and are interest only until maturity. These debt obligations are redeemable prior to the maturity date subject to a “make-whole” premium which decreases annually until 2026 at which time the redemption make-whole premium is no longer applicable. The following table summarizes the Company’s senior unsecured notes by issuance date:
| $ in thousands | Principal | Maturity Date | Interest Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| August 2020 | $750,000 | August 2028 | 5.375% |
| February 2021 | 650,000 | February 2029 | 4.125% |
| February 2021 | 650,000 | February 2031 | 4.375% |
| Senior unsecured notes | $2,050,000 | ||
Secured Mortgages Payable The Company’s outstanding mortgages are collateralized by certain of the Company’s real estate assets. Certain of the Company’s loans contain provisions that grant the lender a security interest in the operating cash flow of the property that represents the collateral for the loan. Certain mortgage notes may be prepaid subject to a prepayment penalty equal to a yield maintenance premium, defeasance, or a percentage of the loan balance. Construction loans related to the Company’s development properties are generally variable-rate, interest-only, and have maturities offive years or less. Debt obligations related to the Company’s operating properties generally require monthly installments of principal and interest.
The following table summarizes the Company’s Secured mortgages payable:

(b)Interest rates presented are based on the applicable reference interest rates as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, excluding the effects of interest rate derivatives.
The Company has entered into derivative instruments to manage its variable interest rate exposure. The weighted-average interest rate of the Company’s variable-rate mortgages payable, inclusive of interest rate derivatives, was 8.05% as of September 30, 2024, and 7.86% as of December 31, 2023. See Note 9 -Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities for additional information.
The Company’s secured mortgages mature over various terms through September 2052. On certain of its debt obligations, the Company has the option to exercise extension options, subject to certain terms, which may include minimum debt service coverage, minimum occupancy levels or condominium sales levels, as applicable, and other performance criteria. In certain cases, due to property performance not meeting identified covenants, the Company may be required to pay down a portion of the loan to exercise the extension option.
During 2024, the Company’s mortgage activity included draws on existing mortgages of $301.7 million, new borrowings of $45.0 million (excluding undrawn amounts on new construction loans), refinancings of $130.0 million, and repayments of $10.7 million. As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s secured mortgage loans had $1.5 billion of undrawn lender commitment available to be drawn for property development, subject to certain restrictions.

Special Improvement District Bonds The Summerlin MPC uses SID bonds to finance certain common infrastructure improvements. These bonds are issued by the municipalities and are secured by the assessments on the land. The majority of proceeds from each bond issued is held in a construction escrow and disbursed to the Company as infrastructure projects are completed, inspected by the municipalities, and approved for reimbursement. Accordingly, the SID bonds have been classified as debt, and the Summerlin MPC pays the debt service on the bonds semi‑annually. As Summerlin sells land, the buyers assume a proportionate share of the bond obligation at closing, and the residential sales contracts provide for the reimbursement of the principal amounts that the Company previously paid with respect to such proportionate share of the bond. These bonds bear interest at fixed rates ranging from 4.13% to 7.00% with maturities ranging from 2025 to 2053 as of September 30, 2024. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, obligations of $10.0 million were assumed by buyers andno SID bonds were issued.
Secured Bridgeland Notes The Company’s $475.0 million secured notes mature in 2026 and are secured by MUD receivables and land in Bridgeland. The loan requires a 10% fully refundable deposit on the outstanding balance and has an interest rate of 7.43%. As of December 2023, outstanding borrowings were $475.0 million. In the third quarter of 2024, $192.0 million was repaid using the proceeds from the sale of MUD receivables, bringing outstanding borrowings to $283.0 million as of September 30, 2024. In the fourth quarter of 2024, the borrowing capacity of this obligation was expanded to $600.0 million and the maturity was extended to 2029.
Debt Compliance As of September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all property-level debt covenants with the exception offive property-level debt instruments. As a result, the excess net cash flow after debt service from the underlying properties became restricted. While the restricted cash could not be used for general corporate purposes, it could be used to fund operations of the underlying assets and did not have a material impact on the Company’s liquidity or its ability to operate these assets.
8. Fair Value
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined using assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The standard establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring assets or liabilities at fair value. Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the asset or liability. Assets or liabilities with readily available active quoted prices, or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices, generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
The following table presents the fair value measurement hierarchy levels required under ASC 820 for the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company does not have any liabilities that are measured at a fair value on a recurring basis for the periods presented.

The fair values of interest rate derivatives are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves.

The fair value of the Company’s Senior Notes, included in fixed-rate debt in the table above, is based upon the trade price closest to the end of the period presented. The fair value of other fixed-rate debt in the table above was estimated based on a discounted future cash payment model, which includes risk premiums and risk-free rates derived from the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) or U.S. Treasury obligation interest rates as of September 30, 2024. Refer to Note 7 -Mortgages, Notes, and Loans Payable, Net for additional information. The discount rates reflect the Company’s judgment as to what the approximate current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and credit quality would be if credit markets were operating efficiently and assuming that the debt is outstanding through maturity.
The carrying amounts for the Company’s variable-rate debt approximate fair value given that the interest rates are variable and adjust with current market rates for instruments with similar risks and maturities.
9. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to its variable interest rate debt, and it manages this risk by utilizing interest rate derivatives. The Company uses interest rate swaps, collars, and caps to add stability to interest costs by reducing the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company’s fixed‑rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Interest rate collars designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above an established ceiling rate and payment of variable amounts to a counterparty if interest rates fall below an established floor rate, in exchange for an upfront premium. No payments or receipts are exchanged on interest rate collar contracts unless interest rates rise above or fall below the established ceiling and floor rates. Interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an upfront premium. Certain of the Company’s interest rate caps are not currently designated as hedges, and therefore, any gains or losses are recognized in current-period earnings within Interest expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. These derivatives are recorded on a gross basis at fair value on the balance sheet.
Assessments of hedge effectiveness are performed quarterly using regression analysis. The change in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings within the same income statement line item being hedged. Derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges are classified in the same category in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as the items being hedged. Gains and losses from derivative financial instruments are reported in Cash provided by (used in) operating activities within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
| FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOOTNOTES | Table of Contents |

The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by its derivative counterparties. To mitigate its credit risk, the Company reviews the creditworthiness of counterparties and enters into agreements with those that are considered credit-worthy, such as large financial institutions with favorable credit ratings. There were no derivative counterparty defaults as of September 30, 2024, or December 31, 2023.
If the derivative contracts are terminated prior to their maturity, the amounts previously recorded in AOCI are recognized in earnings over the period that the hedged transaction impacts earnings. The Company recorded an immaterial reduction in interest expense in 2023 and 2024 related to the amortization of terminated swaps.
Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to Interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable‑rate debt. Over the next 12 months, the Company estimates that $2.3 million of net gain will be reclassified to Interest expense including amounts related to the amortization of terminated swaps.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features The Company has agreements at the property level with certain derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company defaults on the related property-level indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default on its related derivative obligations. The Company also has agreements at the property level with certain derivative counterparties that contain a provision where the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company’s default on the indebtedness. The fair value of the Company’s derivatives which contain credit-risk-related features and were in a net liability position totaled $1.1 million as of September 30, 2024. If the Company had breached any of these provisions at September 30, 2024, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $1.1 million.
10. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation In the normal course of business, from time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings relating to the ownership and operations of its properties. In management’s opinion, the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from normal course of business legal actions are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.
Columbia The Company is currently developing certain property it owns in the Lakefront neighborhood of Downtown Columbia, which is subject to certain recorded documents, covenants, and restrictions (Covenants). Under the Covenants, HHH is the master developer of the Lakefront neighborhood. In 2017, IMH Columbia, LLC (IMH) purchased the site of a former Sheraton Hotel (Hotel Lot) subject to the Covenants. IMH has made demands that HHH accede to IMH’s development plans for the Hotel Lot and HHH has exercised its right under the Covenants to object to IMH’s plans for the Hotel Lot. IMH filed a complaint seeking (1) a declaration that the HHH gave its consent, under the Covenants’, to IMH’s proposed changes in use and onsite parking, or that the limitations under the Covenants are obsolete and unenforceable, (2) damages reimbursing the costs and expenses IMH claims to have incurred in reliance on HHH's alleged consent to IMH’s proposed development, (3) damages related to the expectation of lost profits, which IMH alleged were caused by HHH breaching the Covenants by prohibiting IMH from proceeding with their proposed development, and (4) declarations finding that HHH had breached the shared parking related Covenants relating to HHH’s own property. The jury trial concluded in April 2024, and the jury found partially in favor of IMH and awarded damages of $17.0 million, which will accrue post-judgment interest of 10% annually from the date of the final judgment. The Company has filed a notice of appeal and will continue to defend the matter as it believes that these claims are without merit and that it has substantial legal and factual defenses to the claims and allegations contained in the complaint.
Timarron Park On June 14, 2018, the Company was served with a petition involving approximately 500 individuals or entities who claim that their properties, located in the Timarron Park neighborhood of The Woodlands, were damaged by flood waters that resulted from the unprecedented rainfall that occurred throughout Harris County and surrounding areas during Hurricane Harvey in August 2017. The complaint was filed in State Court in Harris County of the State of Texas. In general, the plaintiffs allege negligence in the development of Timarron Park and violations of Texas’ Deceptive Trade Practices Act and name as defendants The Howard Hughes Corporation, The Woodlands Land Development Company, andtwo unaffiliated parties involved in the planning and engineering of Timarron Park. The plaintiffs are seeking restitution for damages to their properties and diminution of their property values. On August 9, 2022, the Court granted the Company’s summary judgment motions and dismissed the plaintiffs’ claims. On September 8, 2022, the plaintiffs filed a motion for a new trial. On October 21, 2022, the Court denied the motion for a new trial. On November 7, 2022, the Plaintiffs filed their notice of appeal. Both parties have filed their appellate briefs, oral arguments were held on May 22, 2024, and a decision is now pending with the Court of Appeals. The Company will continue to defend the matter as it believes that these claims are without merit and that it has substantial legal and factual defenses to the claims and allegations contained in the complaint. Based upon the present status of this matter, the Company does not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded a charge as a result of this action.

Waiea The Company entered into a settlement agreement with the Waiea homeowners association related to certain construction defects at the condominium tower. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company agreed to pay for the repair of the defects. However, as the Company believed the general contractor was ultimately responsible for the defects, the Company sought to recover the repair costs from the general contractor, other responsible parties, and insurance proceeds. Total estimated cost related to the remediation was $158.4 million, inclusive of $3.0 million of additional costs recognized in the first quarter of 2024. The sixth and final amendment of resolution of disputes and release agreement was executed during the first quarter of 2024, thereby releasing the Company from any further claims or demands from the Waiea homeowners association arising from or relating to the construction or repair of the condominium project. As of September 30, 2024, $0.4 million remains in Construction payables for the estimated repair costs related to this matter, which is included in Accounts payable and other liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In July 2024, the Company executed a settlement agreement with the general contractor, the Waiea homeowners association, and various insurance carriers. As part of this settlement, the Company received $90.0 million of insurance proceeds from various insurance carriers during the three months ended September 30, 2024, which was recognized in Other income (loss), net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The amount received represents the full payout of the related insurance policy and per the executed agreement the Company agreed to release the general contractor and the insurance carriers from any further claims related to the construction defects at the condominium tower.
Also as part of this settlement agreement, the Company agreed to pay the general contractor $22.0 million, representing the final payment of project costs previously incurred by the general contractor. This amount was paid in September 2024, and as the Company had $9.9 million accrued at December 31, 2023, related to these costs, the difference of $12.1 million was recognized in Condominium rights and units cost of sales in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds As of September 30, 2024, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $3.9 million and surety bonds totaling $365.8 million. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $3.9 million and surety bonds totaling $470.4 million. These letters of credit and surety bonds were issued primarily in connection with insurance requirements, special real estate assessments, and construction obligations.
Operating Leases The Company leases land or buildings at certain properties from third parties, which are recorded in Operating lease right-of-use assets and Operating lease obligations on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 15 -Leases for further discussion.
Guaranty Agreements The Company evaluates the likelihood of future performance under the below guarantees and, as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, there were no events requiring financial performance under these guarantees.
Seaport Entertainment Guaranty Immediately prior to the spinoff, 250 Seaport District, LLC (SEG Borrower), then a subsidiary of HHH, refinanced the existing mortgage loan related to the 250 Water Street property. This included the repayment of the existing mortgage loan payable with a carrying value of $113.4 million and the incurrence of $61.3 million in new mortgage indebtedness (SEG Term Loan). As part of the refinancing, SEG Borrower also entered into a total return swap with a third party lender to provide credit support for the SEG Term Loan, which was supported by a guaranty provided by a separate subsidiary of HHH (HHH Guarantor). The SEG Term Loan and related total return swap were included in the liabilities transferred to Seaport Entertainment upon completion of the spinoff. As a result, following the spinoff, HHH Guarantor now provides a full backstop guaranty for the SEG Term Loan.
The SEG Term Loan agreement is scheduled to mature on July 1, 2029. Collateral for the loan includes the 250 Water Street property which was transferred to SEG upon completion of the spinoff. Under the terms of SEG’s loan agreement, the Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio must not exceed certain thresholds. In the event the LTV ratio exceeds the applicable threshold, SEG must pay down the loan to an amount that would result in a LTV ratio under the applicable threshold. In the event SEG fails to make any necessary payments when due, HHH Guarantor is required to make all payments in full.
In consideration of HHH Guarantor providing such guaranty, SEG will pay the Company an annualized guaranty fee equal to 2.0% of the total outstanding principal, paid monthly. The Company’s maximum exposure under this guaranty is equal to the outstanding principal and interest balance at the end of each period. Given the value of the 250 Water Street property collateral, the Company does not expect to have to perform under this guaranty. As of September 30, 2024, the SEG Term Loan LTV ratio is under the applicable threshold.

Floreo Guaranty In October 2022, Floreo, the Company’s 50%-owned joint venture in Teravalis, closed on a $165 million bond financing with a maturity date of October 1, 2027. Outstanding borrowings as of September 30, 2024, were $132.6 million. A wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (HHC Member) provided a guaranty for the bond in the form of a collateral maintenance commitment under which it will post refundable cash collateral if the LTV ratio exceeds 50%. A separate wholly owned subsidiary of the Company also provided a backstop guaranty of up to $50 million of the cash collateral commitment in the event HHC Member fails to make necessary payments when due. The cash collateral becomes nonrefundable if Floreo defaults on the bond obligation. The Company received a fee of $5.0 million in exchange for providing this guaranty, which was recorded in Accounts payable and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023. This liability amount will be recognized in Other income (loss), net in a manner that corresponds to the bond repayment by Floreo. The Company’s maximum exposure under this guaranty is equal to the cash collateral that the Company may be obligated to post. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has not posted any cash collateral. Given the existence of other collateral including the undeveloped land owned by Floreo, the entity’s extensive and discretionary development plan, and its eligibility for reimbursement of a significant part of the development costs from the Community Facility District in Arizona, the Company does not expect to have to post collateral.
Downtown Columbia The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries agreed to complete defined public improvements and to indemnify Howard County, Maryland for certain matters as part of the Downtown Columbia Redevelopment District TIF bonds. To the extent that increases in taxes do not cover debt service payments on the TIF bonds, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary is obligated to pay special taxes. Management has concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, any obligations to pay special taxes are not probable.
Ward Village As part of the Company’s development permits with the Hawai‘i Community Development Authority for the condominium towers at Ward Village, the Company entered into a guaranty whereby it is required to reserve 20% of the residential units for local residents who meet certain maximum income and net worth requirements. This guaranty, which is triggered once the necessary permits are granted and construction commences, was satisfied for Waiea, Anaha, and Ae`o, with the opening of Ke Kilohana, which is a workforce tower fully earmarked to fulfill this obligation for the first four towers. The reserved units for ‘A‘ali‘i tower are included in the ‘A‘ali‘i tower. Units for Kō'ula, Victoria Place, The Park Ward Village, and Kalae will be satisfied with the construction of Ulana Ward Village, which is a second workforce tower fully earmarked to fulfill the remaining reserved housing guaranty in the community. Construction on Ulana Ward Village began in early 2023.

The Company’s tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual current and deferred effective tax rates, adjusted for discrete items. The Company’s effective tax rate is typically impacted by non-deductible executive compensation and other permanent differences as well as state income taxes, which cause the Company’s effective tax rate to deviate from the federal statutory rate. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the effective tax rate was also impacted by a partial release of valuation allowances on the Company’s deferred tax assets including a state net operating loss carryover as well as a net increase in expense related to the revaluation of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of the spinoff of Seaport Entertainment Group Inc. in the third quarter of 2024.

13. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed after adjusting the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation for the effects of all potentially dilutive common shares. The dilutive effect of options and non-vested stock issued under stock-based compensation plans is computed using the treasury stock method. The dilutive effect of the warrants, which expired without being exercised in 2023, were computed using the if-converted method.
Information related to the Company’s EPS calculations is summarized as follows:

In 2022, the Company repurchased approximately $235.0 million of common stock. The date and time of any repurchases will depend upon market conditions and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

14. Revenues
Revenues from contracts with customers (excluding lease-related revenues) are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue and cost of sales for condominium units sold are not recognized until the construction is complete, the sale closes, and the title to the property has transferred to the buyer (point in time). Additionally, certain real estate selling costs, such as the costs related to the Company’s condominium model units, are either expensed immediately or capitalized as property and equipment and depreciated over their estimated useful life.
The following presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by revenue source:

Contract Assets and Liabilities Contract assets are the Company’s right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that have been transferred to a customer, excluding any amounts presented as a receivable. Contract liabilities are the Company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration.
There were no contract assets for the periods presented. The contract liabilities primarily relate to escrowed condominium deposits, MPC land sales deposits, and deferred MPC land sales related to unsatisfied land improvements.

Remaining Unsatisfied Performance Obligations The Company’s remaining unsatisfied performance obligations represent a measure of the total dollar value of work to be performed on contracts executed and in progress. These performance obligations primarily relate to the completion of condominium construction and transfer of control to a buyer, as well as the completion of contracted MPC land sales and related land improvements. These obligations are associated with contracts that generally are non-cancelable by the customer after 30 days for all Ward Village condominiums and after 6 days for The Ritz-Carlton Residences; however, purchasers of condominium units have the right to cancel the contract should the Company elect not to construct the condominium unit within a certain period of time or materially change the design of the condominium unit. The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the Company’s remaining unsatisfied performance obligations as of September 30, 2024, was $3.7 billion. The Company expects to recognize this amount as revenue over the following periods:
| thousands | Less than 1 year | 1-2 years | 3 years and thereafter |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total remaining unsatisfied performance obligations | $887,871 | $1,239,222 | $1,589,228 |
The Company’s remaining performance obligations are adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, and deferrals, as appropriate. These amounts exclude estimated amounts of variable consideration which are constrained, such as builder price participation.
15. Leases
The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components and has elected to aggregate these components into a single component for all classes of underlying assets. Certain of the Company’s lease agreements include non-lease components such as fixed common area maintenance charges.
Lessee Arrangements The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in Operating lease right-of-use assets and Operating lease obligations on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an estimate of the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of future lease payments. The Operating lease right-of-use asset also includes any lease payments made, less any lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The Company does not have any finance leases.
The Company’s lessee agreements consist of operating leases primarily for ground leases and other real estate. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of approximately 2 years to approximately 25 years, excluding extension options. The Company considers its strategic plan and the life of associated agreements in determining when options to extend or terminate lease terms are reasonably certain of being exercised. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Certain of the Company’s lease agreements include variable lease payments based on a percentage of income generated through subleases, changes in price indices and market rates, and other costs arising from operating, maintenance, and taxes. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants. The Company leases certain buildings constructed on its ground leases to third parties.
The Company’s leased assets and liabilities are as follows:

Lessor Arrangements The Company receives rental income from the leasing of retail, office, multi-family, and other space under operating leases, as well as certain variable tenant recoveries. Operating leases for retail, office, and other properties are with a variety of tenants and have a remaining average term of approximately five years. Lease terms generally vary among tenants and may include early termination options, extension options, and fixed rental rate increases or rental rate increases based on an index. Multi-family leases generally have a term of 12 months or less. Minimum rent revenues related to operating leases are as follows:
| Three Months Ended September 30, | Nine Months Ended September 30, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| thousands | 2024 | 2023 | 2024 | 2023 |

| 2028 | 197,352 |
| Thereafter | 820,880 |
| Total | $1,763,009 |
Minimum rent revenues are recognized on a straight‑line basis over the terms of the related leases when collectability is reasonably assured and the tenant has taken possession of, or controls, the physical use of the leased asset. Percentage rent in lieu of fixed minimum rent is recognized as sales are reported from tenants. Minimum rent revenues reported on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations also include amortization related to above-market and below‑market tenant leases on acquired properties.

16. Segments
In 2024, the Company completed the spinoff of Seaport Entertainment Group Inc. which included all assets in the previously reported Seaport segment and the Las Vegas Aviators and Las Vegas Ballpark previously included in the Operating Assets segment. These assets are now disclosed as discontinued operations in the current and prior periods. See Note 2 -Discontinued Operations for additional information on the spinoff transaction.
The Company hasthree business segments that offer different products and services. HHH’sthree segments are managed separately because each requires different operating strategies or management expertise that are reflective of management’s operating philosophies and methods. Because the Company’sthree segments, Operating Assets, MPC, and Strategic Developments, are managed separately, the Company uses different operating measures to assess operating results and allocate resources among them. The one common operating measure used to assess operating results for the Company’s business segments is earnings before tax (EBT). EBT, as it relates to each business segment, includes the revenues and expenses of each segment, as shown below. EBT excludes corporate expenses and other items that are not allocable to the segments. The Company presents EBT for each segment because the Company uses this measure, among others, internally to assess the core operating performance of the Company’s assets. The Company’s segments or assets within such segments could change in the future as development of certain properties commences or other operational or management changes occur. All operations are within the United States. The Company’s reportable segments are as follows:
–Operating Assets – consists of developed or acquired retail, office, and multi-family properties along with other real estate investments. These properties are currently generating revenues and may be redeveloped, repositioned, or sold to improve segment performance or to recycle capital.
–MPC – consists of the development and sale of land in large‑scale, long‑term community development projects in and around Las Vegas, Nevada; Houston, Texas; and Phoenix, Arizona.
–Strategic Developments – consists of residential condominium and commercial property projects currently under development and all other properties held for development which have no substantial operations.
