Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements containing the
words anticipates, believes, expects, intends, future, and words of similar import which
express the Companys beliefs, expectations or intentions regarding future performance or future
events or trends. While forward-looking statements reflect good faith beliefs, expectations or
intentions, they are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors, which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to
differ materially from anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied
by such forward-looking statements as a result of factors outside of the Companys control. Certain
factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, the following: real
estate investment considerations, such as the effect of economic and other conditions in general
and in the Companys market areas in particular; the financial viability of the Companys tenants
(including an inability to pay rent, filing for bankruptcy protection, closing stores and/or
vacating the premises); the continuing availability of acquisition, development and redevelopment
opportunities, on favorable terms; the availability of equity and debt capital (including the
availability of construction financing) in the public and private markets; the availability of
suitable joint venture partners and potential purchasers of the Companys properties if offered for
sale; changes in interest rates; the fact that returns from acquisition, development and
redevelopment activities may not be at expected levels or at expected times; risks inherent in
ongoing development and redevelopment projects including, but not limited to, cost overruns
resulting from weather delays, changes in the nature and scope of development and redevelopment
efforts, changes in governmental regulations relating thereto, and market factors involved in the
pricing of material and labor; the need to renew leases or re-let space upon the expiration or
termination of current leases and incur applicable required replacement costs; and the financial
flexibility to repay or refinance debt obligations when due and to fund tenant improvements and
capital expenditures.

Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2009
(unaudited)
Note 1. Organization and Basis of Preparation
Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc. (the Company) was organized in 1984 and elected to be taxed as
a real estate investment trust (REIT) in 1986. The Company focuses primarily on ownership,
operation, development and redevelopment of supermarket-anchored shopping centers predominately in
coastal mid-Atlantic and New England states. At June 30, 2009, the Company owned 121 operating
properties, aggregating approximately 12.7 million square feet of gross leasable area (GLA).
Cedar Shopping Centers Partnership, L.P. (the Operating Partnership) is the entity through
which the Company conducts substantially all of its business and owns (either directly or through
subsidiaries) substantially all of its assets. At June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008,
respectively, the Company owned a 95.7% economic interest in, and was the sole general partner of,
the Operating Partnership. The limited partners interest in the Operating Partnership (4.3% at
June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively) is represented by Operating Partnership Units
(OP Units). The carrying amount of such interest is adjusted at the end of each reporting period
to an amount equal to the limited partners ownership percentage of the Operating Partnerships net
equity. The approximately 2,017,000 OP Units outstanding at June 30, 2009 are economically
equivalent to the Companys common stock and are convertible into the Companys common stock at the
option of the respective holders on a one-to-one basis.
As used herein, the Company refers to Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a
consolidated basis, including the Operating Partnership or, where the context so requires, Cedar
Shopping Centers, Inc. only.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company, the
Operating Partnership, its subsidiaries, and certain joint venture partnerships in which it
participates. On January 30, 2009 and February 10, 2009, respectively, the Company entered into two
joint ventures (with the same minority interest partner), in which it has 40% general partnership
interests, for acquisitions on those dates of shopping centers in New London, Connecticut and
California, Maryland. During the first quarter of 2009, the Company recorded a 50% minority
interest in a completed single-tenant development project which had commenced operations during the
fourth quarter of 2008.
With respect to its 13 consolidated operating joint ventures, the Company has general
partnership interests of 20% in nine properties, 40% in two properties, 50% in one property and 75%
in one property. As (i) such entities are not variable-interest entities pursuant to the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 46R, Consolidation of
8
Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2009
(unaudited)
Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46R), and (ii) the Company is the sole general partner and exercises substantial
operating control over these entities pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 04-05,
Determining Whether a General Partner, or General Partners as a Group, Controls a Limited
Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights, the Company has
determined that such entities should be consolidated for financial statement purposes. EITF 04-05 provides a framework for determining whether a general partner
controls, and should consolidate, a limited partnership or similar entity in which it owns a
minority interest.
The Companys three 60%-owned joint ventures for development projects in Limerick, Pottsgrove
and Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, are consolidated as they are deemed to be variable interest entities
(VIEs) pursuant to FIN 46R and the Company is the primary income or loss beneficiary in each
case. At June 30, 2009, these VIEs owned real estate with a carrying value of $115.0 million and
had property specific mortgage loans payable of $51.5 million. In addition, one of the VIEs
collateralizes the secured revolving development property credit facility to the extent of $6.9
million of the June 30, 2009 outstanding balance under that loan.
The Company has deposits on land to be purchased for development of $905,000 at June 30, 2009
which are VIEs. The Company has not consolidated these VIEs as it is not the primary income or loss
beneficiary in each case.
The Company has a 76.3% interest in an unconsolidated joint venture which owns a single-tenant
office property in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Although the Company exercises influence over this
joint venture, it does not have operating control. The Company has determined that this joint
venture is not a VIE pursuant to FIN 46R and, accordingly, the Company accounts for its investment
in this joint venture under the equity method.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim reporting. Accordingly,
they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for fair presentation (including normal
recurring accruals) have been included. The consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes
contained in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. The
consolidated financial statements reflect certain reclassifications of prior period amounts to
conform to the 2009 presentation, principally the retrospective adoption of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements, an amendment to ARB 51 , the application of EITF D-98, Classification and Measurement
of Redeemable Securities and the
9

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)
application of SFAS 144 Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets to reflect the discontinuance of certain operating properties to
real estate held for sale. The reclassifications had no impact on previously-reported net income
attributable to common shareholders or earnings per share.
Real Estate Investments and Discontinued Operations
Real estate investments are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The provision for
depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based upon the estimated useful lives of
the respective assets. Expenditures for betterments that substantially extend the useful lives of
the assets are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs, and betterments that do not
substantially prolong the normal useful life of an asset are charged to operations as incurred.
Upon the sale or other disposition of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation
and amortization are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is reflected
as discontinued operations. In addition, prior periods financial statements would be reclassified
to reflect the sold properties operations as discontinued.
Real estate investments include costs of development and redevelopment activities, and
construction in progress. Capitalized costs, including interest and other carrying costs during the
construction and/or renovation periods, are included in the cost of the related asset and charged
to operations through depreciation over the assets estimated useful life. Interest and financing
costs capitalized amounted to $1,721,000 and $1,417,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009
and 2008, respectively, and $3,258,000 and $2,595,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and
2008, respectively. The Companys capitalization policy on its development and redevelopment
properties is guided by SFAS No. 34, Capitalization of Interest Cost and SFAS No. 67, Accounting
for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects. A variety of costs are incurred
in the acquisition, development and leasing of a property, such as pre-construction costs essential
to the development of the property, development costs, construction costs, interest costs, real
estate taxes, salaries and related costs, and other costs incurred during the period of
development. After a determination is made to capitalize a cost, it is allocated to the specific
component of a project that is benefited. The Company ceases capitalization on the portions
substantially completed and occupied, or held available for occupancy, and capitalizes only those
costs associated with the portions under construction. The Company considers a construction project
to be substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the completion of tenant
improvements, but not later than one year from cessation of major construction activity.
SFAS 144 requires that management review each real estate investment for impairment whenever
events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a real estate investment may not be
recoverable. The review of recoverability is based on an estimate of the future cash flows that are
expected to result from the real estate investments use and eventual disposition. These
10

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)
cash flows consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the
effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If an impairment event exists due to the
projected inability to recover the carrying value of a real estate investment, an impairment loss
is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds estimated fair value. Real estate
investments held for sale are carried at the lower of their respective carrying amounts or
estimated fair values, less costs to sell. Depreciation and amortization are suspended during the
periods held for sale.
During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company wrote-off costs incurred in
prior years for (i) a potential development opportunity in Milford, Delaware that the Company
determined would not go forward ($2,423,000) and (ii) costs incurred related to the acquisitions of
San Souci Plaza and New London Mall (net of minority interest share) and the costs primarily
associated with a cancelled acquisition (an aggregate of $1,525,000).
On April 23, 2009, the Company sold its 6,000 sq. ft. McDonalds/Waffle House property, located
in Medina, Ohio, for a sales price of $1.3 million; the Company realized a net gain on the
transaction of approximately $277,000. On July 2, 2009, the Company sold its 10,000 sq. ft. CVS
property located in Westfield, New York for a sales price of $1.7 million and, as this property met
the held for sale criteria pursuant to SFAS 144 as of June 30, 2009, the Company recorded an
impairment charge on the transaction of approximately $170,000.
In accordance with SFAS 144, the carrying values of the assets of these properties,
principally the net book value of the real estate, have been classified as held for sale on the
Companys consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2008. There were no related held for sale
liabilities associated with the properties. In addition, the properties results of operations have
been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the consolidated
statements of income. The following is a summary of the components of (loss) income from
discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively:

FIN 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, provides clarification
of the term conditional asset retirement obligation as used in SFAS No. 143, Asset Retirement
Obligations, to be a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing
and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the
control of the Company. FIN 47 requires that the Company record a liability for a conditional asset
retirement obligation if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated.
Environmental studies conducted at the time of acquisition with respect to all of the Companys
properties did not reveal any material environmental liabilities, and the Company is unaware of any
subsequent environmental matters that would have created a material liability. The Company believes
that its properties are currently in material compliance with applicable environmental, as well as
non-environmental, statutory and regulatory requirements. There were no conditional asset
retirement obligation liabilities recorded by the Company during the three and six months ended
June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Intangible Lease Asset/Liability
SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangibles,
require that management allocate the fair value of real estate acquired to land, buildings and improvements. In addition, the fair value of in-place leases is allocated to
intangible lease assets and liabilities.
12

The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property is determined by valuing the
property as if it were vacant, which value is then allocated to land, buildings and improvements
based on managements determination of the relative fair values of these assets. In valuing an
acquired propertys intangibles, factors considered by management include an estimate of carrying
costs during the expected lease-up periods, such as real estate taxes, insurance, other operating
expenses, and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on its
evaluation of current market demand. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases,
including leasing commissions, tenant improvements, legal and other related costs.
The value of in-place leases is measured by the excess of (i) the purchase price paid for a
property after adjusting existing in-place leases to market rental rates, over (ii) the estimated
fair value of the property as if vacant. Above-market and below-market in-place lease values are
recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with
the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be received and
managements estimate of market lease rates, measured over the non-cancelable terms of the
respective leases. The value of other intangibles is amortized to expense, and the above-market and
below-market lease values are amortized to rental income, over the remaining non-cancelable terms
of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all
unamortized amounts relating to that lease would be recognized in operations at that time.
With respect to the Companys 2009 acquisitions, the fair values of in-place leases and other
intangibles have been allocated to the intangible asset and liability accounts. Such allocations
are preliminary and are based on information and estimates available as of the respective dates of
acquisition. As final information becomes available and is refined, appropriate adjustments are
made to the purchase price allocations, which are finalized within twelve months of the respective
dates of acquisition. Unamortized intangible lease liabilities relate primarily to below-market
leases, and amounted to $57,979,000 and $61,384,000 at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008,
respectively.
As a result of recording the intangible lease assets and liabilities, (i) revenues were
increased by $3,254,000 and $3,504,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008,
respectively, relating to the amortization of intangible lease liabilities, and (ii) depreciation
and amortization expense was increased correspondingly by $4,976,000 and $4,781,000 for the
respective three-month periods. For the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, (1) revenues were
increased by $6,670,000 and $6,904,000, respectively, relating to the amortization of intangible
lease liabilities, and (2) depreciation and amortization expense was increased correspondingly by
$9,849,000 and $9,129,000 for the respective six-month periods.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in banks and short-term investments with original
maturities of less than ninety days, and include cash at consolidated joint ventures of $2,850,000
and $1,897,000 at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.
Restricted Cash
The terms of several of the Companys mortgage loans payable require the Company to deposit
certain replacement and other reserves with its lenders. Such restricted cash is generally
available only for property-level requirements for which the reserves have been established, is not
available to fund other property-level or Company-level obligations, and amounted to $15,643,000
and $14,004,000 at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.
Rents and Other Receivables
Management has determined that all of the Companys leases with its various tenants are
operating leases. Rental income with scheduled rent increases is recognized using the straight-line
method over the respective terms of the leases. The aggregate excess of rental revenue recognized
on a straight-line basis over base rents under applicable lease provisions is included in
straight-line rents receivable on the consolidated balance sheet. Leases also generally contain
provisions under which the tenants reimburse the Company for a portion of property operating
expenses and real estate taxes incurred; such income is recognized in the periods earned. In
addition, certain operating leases contain contingent rent provisions under which tenants are
required to pay, as additional rent, a percentage of their sales in excess of a specified amount.
The Company defers recognition of contingent rental income until those specified sales targets are
met.
The Company must make estimates as to the collectability of its accounts receivable related to
base rent, straight-line rent, percentage rent, expense reimbursements and other revenues. When
management analyzes accounts receivable and evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful
accounts, it considers such things as historical bad debts, tenant creditworthiness, current
economic trends, and changes in tenants payment patterns. The allowance for doubtful accounts was
$4,320,000 and $2,966,000 at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. The provision for
doubtful accounts (included in operating, maintenance and management expenses) was $971,000 and
$535,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $1,553,000 and
$674,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk
consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents in excess of insured amounts and tenant receivables.
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high quality financial institutions.
Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its tenants and requires certain tenants to
provide security deposits.

Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. A REIT will generally not be subject to federal income taxation on that portion of its
income that qualifies as REIT taxable income, to the extent that it distributes at least 90% of
such REIT taxable income to its shareholders and complies with certain other requirements.
Management has initiated certain steps, including revised computations of depreciation deductions
for certain properties, so that the initial reduction and subsequent suspension of the Companys
common stock dividends in 2009 would not adversely affect the Companys REIT status for 2009.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company occasionally utilizes derivative financial instruments, principally interest rate
swaps, to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. The Company has established
policies and procedures for risk assessment, and the approval, reporting and monitoring of
derivative financial instrument activities. The Company has not entered into, and does not plan to
enter into, derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Additionally, the
Company has a policy of entering into derivative contracts only with major financial institutions.
As of June 30, 2009, the Company believes it has no significant risk associated with
non-performance of the financial institutions which are the counterparties to its derivative
contracts. Additionally, based on the rates in effect as of June 30, 2009, if a counterparty were
to default, the Company would receive a net interest benefit. At June 30, 2009, the Company had
$47.9 million of mortgage loans payable subject to interest rate swaps which converted LIBOR-based
variable rates to fixed annual rates ranging from 5.2% to 6.8% per annum. At that date, the Company
had accrued liabilities (included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated
balance sheet) for (i) $3.3 million relating to the fair value of interest rate swaps applicable to
existing mortgage loans payable of $47.9 million, and (ii) $3.2 million relating to an interest
rate swap applicable to anticipated permanent financing of $28.0 million for its development joint
venture project in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, bearing an effective date of June 1, 2010,
termination date of June 1, 2020, and a fixed rate of 5.56%. Charges and/or credits relating to the
changes in fair values of such interest rate swaps are made to accumulated other comprehensive
(loss) income, noncontrolling interests (minority interests in consolidated joint ventures and
limited partners interest), or operations (included in interest expense), as appropriate. Total
other comprehensive income was $4,953,000 and $3,929,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009
and 2008, respectively, and $11,541,000 and $8,815,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and
2008, respectively. The total amount charged (credited) to operations was $91,000 and $0 for the
three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $115,000 and $0 for the six months
ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Currently, all of the Companys derivative instruments
are designated as effective hedging instruments.

These interest rate swaps are used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with
existing variable-rate debt. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to
derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Companys

Earnings Per Share
In accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, basic earnings per share (EPS) is
computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to the Companys common shareholders by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period (including restricted shares
and shares held by Rabbi Trusts). Fully-diluted EPS reflects the

potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into shares of common stock; such additional dilutive shares were either
anti-dilutive or insignificant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008,
respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payments establishes financial accounting and reporting standards
for stock-based employee compensation plans, including all arrangements by which employees receive
shares of stock or other equity instruments of the employer, or the employer incurs liabilities to
employees in amounts based on the price of the employers stock. The statement also defines a fair
value-based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument.
The Companys 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the Incentive Plan) provides for the granting of
incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, performance units and
performance shares. The maximum number of shares of the Companys common stock that may be issued
pursuant to the Incentive Plan is 2,750,000, and the maximum number of shares that may be granted
to a participant in any calendar year may not exceed 250,000. Substantially all grants issued
pursuant to the Incentive Plan are restricted stock grants which specify vesting (i) upon the
third anniversary of the date of grant for time-based grants, or (ii) upon the completion of a
designated period of performance for performance-based grants. Timebased grants are valued
according to the market price for the Companys common stock at the date of grant. For
performance-based grants, the Company generally engages an independent appraisal company to
determine the value of the shares at the date of grant, taking into account the underlying
contingency risks associated with the performance criteria.
In February 2007, the Company issued 37,000 shares of common stock as performance-based
grants, which will vest if the total annual return on an investment in the Companys common stock
over the three-year period ending December 31, 2009 is equal to, or greater than, an average of 8%
per year. The independent appraisal determined the value of the performance-based shares to be
$10.09 per share, compared to a market price at the date of grant of $16.45 per share. In January
2008 and June 2008, the Company issued 53,000 shares and 7,000 shares of common stock,
respectively, as performance-based grants, which will vest if the total annual return on an
investment in the Companys common stock over the three-year period ending December 31, 2010 is
equal to, or greater than, an average of 8% per year. The independent appraisal determined the
value of the January 2008 performance-based shares to be $6.05 per share, compared to a market
price at the date of grant of $10.07 per share; similar methodology determined the value of the
June 2008 performance-based shares to be $10.31 per share, compared to a market price at the date
of grant of $12.13 per share. In January 2009, the Company issued 218,000 shares of common stock as
performance-based grants, which will vest if the total annual return on an investment in the
Companys common stock over the three-year
18

period ending December 31, 2011 is equal to, or greater than, a blended measure of (i) an average
of 6% return per year on the Companys common stock, and (ii) the median return per year of the
Companys peer group. The independent appraisal determined the value of the performance-based
shares to be $5.96 per share, compared to a market price at the date of grant of $7.02 per share.
Additional restricted shares issued during the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and
2008 were time-based grants, and amounted to 0 shares and 20,000 shares for the three months ended
June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and 376,000 shares and 186,000 shares for the six months
ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The value of all grants is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over the respective vesting periods adjusted, as applicable, for fluctuations
in the market value of the Companys common stock, in accordance with the provisions of EITF No.
97-14, Accounting for Deferred Compensation Arrangements Where Amounts Earned Are Held in a Rabbi
Trust and Invested. Those grants of restricted shares that are transferred to Rabbi Trusts are
classified as treasury stock on the Companys consolidated balance sheet, and are accounted for
pursuant to EITF No. 97-14. The following table sets forth certain stock-based compensation
information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively:

At June 30, 2009, 1,530,000 shares remained available for grants pursuant to the
Incentive Plan, and $4,267,000 remained as deferred compensation, to be amortized over various
periods ending in March 2012.
During 2001, pursuant to the 1998 Stock Option Plan (the Option Plan), the Company granted
to the then directors options to purchase an aggregate of approximately 13,000 shares of common
stock at $10.50 per share, the market value of the Companys common stock on the date of the grant.
The options are fully exercisable and expire in 2011. In connection with the adoption of the
Incentive Plan, the Company agreed that it would not grant any more options under the Option Plan.
In connection with an acquisition of a shopping center in 2002, the Operating Partnership
issued warrants to purchase approximately 83,000 OP Units to a then minority interest partner in
the property. Such warrants have an exercise price of $13.50 per unit, subject to certain
anti-dilution adjustments, are fully vested, and expire in 2012.

(a) |
|
A $14,575,000 non-interest-bearing mortgage was issued in connection with a purchase of
land, and was valued at a net amount of $13,851,000. This reflected a valuation decrease of
$724,000 to a market rate of 9.25% per annum. |
|
(b) |
|
The net valuation decrease in an assumed mortgage loan payable resulted from adjusting the
contract rate of interest (4.9% per annum) to a market rate of interest (6.1% per annum). |
Fair Value Measurements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair
value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands
disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 was effective for financial assets and
liabilities on January 1, 2008. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No.
157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 157
for all nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair
value in the financial statements on a recurring basis, at least annually. FSP 157-2 partially
defers the effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The
adoption of FSP 157-2 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
These standards did not materially affect how the Company determines fair value, but resulted in
certain additional disclosures. SFAS 157 establishes a fair
21

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2009
(unaudited)
value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into
three levels:
|
|
|
Level 1 Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for
identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
|
|
|
|
Level 2 Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar
assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset
or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the
financial instrument. |
|
|
|
|
Level 3 Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to
the fair value measurement. |
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority
to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that
maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent
possible as well as consider counterparty credit risk in the assessment of fair value. Financial
assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated financial statements consist of
interest rate swaps. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using widely accepted
valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each
derivative. The analysis reflects the contractual terms of the swaps, including the period to
maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves (significant
other observable inputs). The fair value calculation also includes an amount for risk of
non-performance using significant unobservable inputs such as estimates of current credit spreads
to evaluate the likelihood of default. The Company has concluded, as of June 30, 2009, that the
fair value associated with the significant unobservable inputs relating to the Companys risk of
non-performance was insignificant to the overall fair value of the interest rate swap agreements
and, as a result, has determined that the relevant inputs for purposes of calculating the fair
value of the interest rate swap agreements, in their entirety, were based upon significant other
observable inputs pursuant to SFAS 157. These methods of assessing fair value result in a general
approximation of value, and such value may never be realized.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, rents and other
receivables, other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value. The
valuation of the liability for the Companys interest rate swaps ($6,468,000 at June 30, 2009), was
determined to be a Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy established by SFAS 157, and was based on
independent values provided by financial institutions.
The fair value of the Companys fixed rate mortgage loans was estimated using significant
other observable inputs such as available market information and discounted cash flows analyses
based on borrowing rates the Company believes it could obtain with similar terms and maturities.
As of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the aggregate fair values of the Companys fixed rate
mortgage loans were approximately $694,912,000 and $606,753,000, respectively; the carrying values of such loans were $721,457,000 and $655,681,000,
respectively, at those dates.

Recently-Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations a replacement of
FASB Statement No. 141, which applies to all transactions or events in which an entity obtains
control of one or more businesses. SFAS 141(R) (i) establishes the acquisition-date fair value as
the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed, (ii) requires expensing
of most transaction costs, and (iii) requires the acquiror to disclose to investors and other users
all of the information needed to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the
business combination. SFAS 141(R) became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2008 and early adoption was not permitted. The principal impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 141(R)
on the Companys financial statements is that the Company has expensed most transaction costs
relating to its acquisition activities ($0 and $1,273,000 for the three and six months ended June
30, 2009, respectively, of which the noncontrolling interests share was $0 and $764,000,
respectively).
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated
Financial Statements an amendment of ARB No. 51. SFAS 160 clarifies that a noncontrolling
interest in a subsidiary (minority interests or certain limited partners interest, in the case of
the Company), subject to the provisions of EITF D-98, Classification and Measurement of Redeemable
Securities, is an ownership interest in a consolidated entity which should be reported as equity
in the parent companys consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 requires a reconciliation of
the beginning and ending balances of equity attributable to noncontrolling interests and
disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of those amounts of consolidated net
income attributable to the noncontrolling interests, eliminating the past practice of reporting
these amounts as an adjustment in arriving at consolidated net income. SFAS 160 requires a parent
company to recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated and requires
the parent company to attribute to noncontrolling interests their share of losses, if appropriate,
even if such attribution results in a deficit balance applicable to the noncontrolling interests
within the parent companys equity accounts. SFAS 160 became effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2008, requires retroactive application of the presentation and disclosure
requirements for all periods presented, and early adoption was not permitted. The Company has
reclassified, for all periods presented, the balances related to minority interests in consolidated
joint ventures and limited partners interest in the Operating Partnership into the consolidated
equity accounts, as appropriate (certain non-controlling interests of the Company will continue to
be classified in the mezzanine section of the balance sheet as these redeemable OP

Units (Mezz OP
Units) do not meet the requirements for equity classification under EITF D-98, since certain of
the holders of OP Units have registration rights that provide such holders with the right to demand
registration under the federal securities law of the common stock of the Company issuable upon
conversion of such OP Units). The Company will adjust the carrying value of the Mezz OP Units each
period to equal the greater of its historical carrying value or its redemption value as prescribed by EITF
D-98. As of June 30, 2009, there had been no adjustments recorded to the carrying amounts of the
Mezz OP Units.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. SFAS 161 is intended to improve
financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced
disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entitys financial
position, financial performance, and cash flows. Among other requirements, entities are required to
provide enhanced disclosures about (1) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (2) how
derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS 133 and its related
interpretations, and (3) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entitys
financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS 161 became effective for the Company
on January 1, 2009 and, other than the enhanced disclosure requirements, did not have a material
effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in
Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities, which states that unvested
share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents
(whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of
earnings per share. FSP EITF 03-6-1 became effective on January 1, 2009; its adoption had no impact
on the Company as unvested restricted stock awards are included in the computations of both basic
and diluted earnings per share.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments, which expands the fair value disclosure requirements of SFAS 107,
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to include interim periods, and amends APB
Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting, to require these disclosures in summarized financial
information in interim reporting periods. The FSP became effective for interim periods ending after
June 15, 2009 and, other than the enhanced disclosure requirements, did not have a material effect
on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-4, Determining the Fair Value When the Volume and
Level of Activity for the Asset and Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying
Transactions That Are Not Orderly. The FSP became effective for interim and annual reporting
periods ending after June 15, 2009 and did not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated
financial statements.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events. SFAS 165 establishes
principles and requirements for evaluating, recognizing and disclosing subsequent events. SFAS 165
became effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 165 did not have an impact on the Companys consolidated financial
statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), which
amends guidance in FIN 46(R) for determining whether an entity is a VIE, and requires the
performance of a qualitative rather than a quantitative analysis to determine the primary
beneficiary of a VIE. Under this guidance, an entity would be required to consolidate a VIE if it
has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entitys economic
performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits
from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. SFAS 167 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after November 15, 2009 and early adoption is not permitted. The Company has not yet determined the
effect that SFAS 167 may have on its consolidated financials statements.
Note 3. Real Estate
The following are the significant real estate transactions that occurred during the six months
ended June 30, 2009.
Joint Venture Activities
On January 30, 2009, a newly-formed 40% Company-owned joint venture acquired the New London
Mall in New London, Connecticut, an approximate 259,000 sq. ft. supermarket-anchored shopping
center, for a purchase price of approximately $40.7 million. The purchase price included the
assumption of an existing $27.4 million first mortgage bearing interest at 4.9% per annum and
maturing in 2015. The total joint venture partnership contribution was approximately $14.0 million,
of which the Companys 40% share ($5.6 million) was funded from its secured revolving stabilized
property credit facility. The Company is the sole managing partner of the venture and receives
certain acquisition, property management, construction management and leasing fees. In addition,
the Company will be entitled to a promote fee structure, pursuant to which its profits
participation would be increased to 44% if the venture reaches certain income targets. The
Companys joint venture partners are affiliates of Prime Commercial Properties PLC (PCP), a
London-based real estate/development company.
On February 10, 2009, a second newly-formed (also with affiliates of PCP) 40% Company-owned
joint venture acquired San Souci Plaza in California, Maryland, an approximate 264,000 sq. ft.
supermarket-anchored shopping center, for a purchase price of approximately $31.8 million. The
purchase price included the assumption of an existing $27.2 million first mortgage bearing interest
at 6.2% per annum and maturing in 2016. The total joint venture partnership contribution was
approximately $5.8 million, of which the Companys 40%

share ($2.3 million) was funded from its
secured revolving stabilized property credit facility. The Company is the sole managing partner of
the venture and receives certain acquisition, property management, construction management and
leasing fees. In addition, the Company will be entitled to a promote fee structure, pursuant to which its profits participation would be
increased to 44% if the venture reaches certain income targets.
With respect to the Companys 20% joint-venture interest in nine properties in partnership
with affiliates of Homburg Invest Inc., the terms of the partnership agreements include buy/sell
provisions with respect to equity ownership interests which can be exercised by either party after
June 30, 2009. The buy/sell provisions allow either partner to provide notice that it intends to
purchase the non-initiating partners interest at a specific price premised on a value for the
entire venture. The non-initiating party may either accept that offer or instead may reject that

At June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, a substantial portion of the Companys
real estate was pledged as collateral for mortgage loans payable and the revolving credit
facilities.
Pro Forma Financial Information (unaudited)
During the period January 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009, the Company acquired six shopping and
convenience centers aggregating approximately 790,000 sq. ft. of GLA, purchased the joint venture
minority interests in four properties, purchased approximately 182 acres of land for expansion
and/or future development, for a total cost of approximately $189.0 million, and sold two of its
operating properties aggregating approximately 16,000 sq. ft. of GLA for a sales price of
approximately $3.0 million. The following table summarizes, on an unaudited pro forma basis, the
combined results of operations of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and
2008, respectively, as if all of these property acquisitions and sales were completed as of January
1, 2008. This unaudited pro forma information does not purport to represent what the actual results
of operations of the Company would have been had all the above occurred as of January 1, 2008, nor

Mortgage loans payable
During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company assumed $52.9 million of fixed-rate
mortgage loans payable in connection with acquisitions, bearing interest at rates of 6.1% and 6.2%
per annum, with an average of 6.2% per annum. These principal amounts and rates of interest
represent the fair values at the respective dates of acquisition. The stated contract amounts were
$54.6 million at the respective dates of acquisition, bearing interest at rates of 4.9% and 6.2%
per annum, with an average of 5.5% per annum.
During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company refinanced three properties that had
collateralized the secured revolving stabilized property credit facility. The new fixed-rate
mortgages, aggregating $23.3 million, bear interest at rates of 5.25% and 6.75% per annum, with an
average of 6.3% per annum. The Company used the mortgage proceeds to reduce the balance outstanding
under the secured revolving stabilized property credit facility.
In addition, the Company has a $77.7 million construction facility with Manufacturers and
Traders Trust Company (as agent) and several other banks, pursuant to which the Company
27
Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2009
(unaudited)
has
guaranteed and pledged its joint venture development project in Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania as
collateral for borrowings to be made thereunder. This facility will expire in September 2011,
subject to a one-year extension option. Borrowings outstanding under the facility aggregated $50.2
million at June 30, 2009, and such borrowings bore interest at an average rate of 2.6% per annum.
Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the Companys option at either LIBOR plus a spread
of 225 bps, or the agent banks prime rate. As of June 30, 2009, the Company was in compliance with
the financial covenants and financial statement ratios required by the terms of the construction
facility.
Secured Revolving Stabilized Property Credit Facility
The Company has a $300 million secured revolving stabilized property credit facility with Bank
of America, N.A. (as agent) and several other banks, pursuant to which the Company has pledged
certain of its shopping center properties as collateral for borrowings thereunder. The facility, as
amended, is expandable to $400 million, subject to certain conditions, including acceptable
collateral, and will expire on January 30, 2010. Borrowings outstanding under the facility
aggregated $249.2 million at June 30, 2009, and such borrowings bore interest at an average rate of
1.6% per annum. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the Companys option at either LIBOR
or the agent banks prime rate, plus a bps spread depending upon the Companys leverage ratio, as
defined, measured quarterly. The LIBOR spread ranges from 110 to 145 bps (the spread as of June 30,
2009 was 135 bps, which will remain in effect through September 30, 2009). The prime rate spread
ranges from 0 to 50 bps (the spread as of June 30, 2009 was 0 bps, which will remain in effect
through September 30, 2009). The facility also requires an unused portion fee of 15 bps.
The secured revolving stabilized property credit facility has been used to fund acquisitions,
certain development and redevelopment activities, capital expenditures, mortgage repayments,
dividend distributions, working capital and other general corporate purposes. The facility is
subject to customary financial covenants, including limits on leverage and distributions (limited
to 95% of funds from operations, as defined), and other financial statement ratios. Based on
covenant measurements and collateral in place as of June 30, 2009, the Company was permitted to
draw up to approximately $272.7 million, of which approximately $23.5 million remained available as
of that date. As of June 30, 2009, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants and
financial statement ratios required by the terms of the secured revolving stabilized property
credit facility.
The Company is in the process of negotiating an amended and restated secured revolving
stabilized property credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. continuing as agent which, together
with three other lead lenders and other participating lenders, have committed as of June 30, 2009
to not less than $196 million. The principal terms of the new facility, as proposed,
include (i) an availability to be based primarily on appraisals, with a 67.5% advance rate,
(ii) an interest rate based on LIBOR plus 350 bps, with a 200 bps LIBOR floor, (iii) a leverage
ratio
28

(unaudited)
limited to 67.5%, and (iv) a maturity date of January 31, 2012 plus a one-year extension
option. Other terms are expected to be similar to the present arrangement. The estimated amount
that the Company would be permitted to draw under the proposed facility, based on the proposed
covenants and collateral in place, will be in excess of the $231.0 million outstanding under the
existing facility as of July 31, 2009. The remaining availability, however, is expected to be less
than under the existing facility. The Company expects to conclude the new facility prior to
September 30, 2009.
Secured Revolving Development Property Credit Facility
The Company has a $150 million secured revolving development property credit facility with
KeyBank, National Association (as agent) and several other banks, pursuant to which the Company has
pledged certain of its development projects and redevelopment properties as collateral for
borrowings thereunder. The facility, as amended, is expandable to $250 million, subject to certain
conditions, including acceptable collateral, and will expire in June 2011, subject to a one-year
extension option. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the Companys option at either
LIBOR or the agent banks prime rate, plus a spread of 225 bps or 75 bps, respectively. Advances
under the facility are calculated at the least of 70% of aggregate project costs, 70% of as
stabilized appraised values, or costs incurred in excess of a 30% equity requirement on the part
of the Company. The facility also requires an unused portion fee of 15 bps. This facility has been
and is expected to be further used to fund in part the Companys and certain joint ventures
development activities in 2009 and subsequent years. In order to draw funds under this construction
facility, the Company must meet certain pre-leasing and other conditions. Borrowings outstanding
under the facility aggregated $71.7 million at June 30, 2009, and such borrowings bore interest at
a rate of 2.6% per annum. Based on covenant measurements and collateral in place as of June 30,
2009, the Company was permitted to draw up to approximately $79.5 million; $7.8 million will become
available as approved project costs are incurred. As of June 30, 2009, the Company was in
compliance with the financial covenants and financial statement ratios required by the terms of the
secured revolving development property credit facility.
Note 5. Subsequent Events
In determining subsequent events, management reviewed all activity from July 1, 2009 through the
date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
On July 14, 2009, as part of the Companys plan to re-develop its Shore Mall property, the
Company (1) purchased the lease applicable to the former 144,000 sq. ft. Value City store that had
been previously acquired by Burlington Coat Factory, and (2) renewed for a five year period the
lease due to expire in November 2009 for the existing 85,000 sq. ft. space that Burlington Coat
Factory presently occupies. The purchase price for the Value City lease was $2
million, payable in five annual installments commencing January 2010 and bearing 6% interest
per annum.

(unaudited)
On July 15, 2009, in order to help provide stabilization of a major tenants financial
condition and help secure the viability of such tenants future operations, the Company issued an
unsecured guaranty, in an amount not to exceed $500,000, of a portion of certain financing arranged
by the tenant. The Companys participation is part of a group of both governmental and private
entities which provided either the underlying financing (an aggregate of approximately $47

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Companys consolidated
financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.
Executive Summary
The Company is a fully-integrated real estate investment trust which focuses primarily on
ownership, operation, development and redevelopment of supermarket-anchored shopping centers
predominantly in coastal mid-Atlantic and New England states. At June 30, 2009, the Company had a
portfolio of 121 operating properties totaling approximately 12.7 million square feet of gross
leasable area (GLA), including 108 wholly-owned properties comprising approximately 11.0 million
square feet and 13 properties owned in joint venture comprising approximately 1.7 million square
feet. The entire 121 property portfolio was approximately 92% leased at June 30, 2009; the 112
property stabilized portfolio (including properties wholly-owned and in joint venture) was
approximately 95% leased at that date. The Company also owned 398 acres of land parcels, a
significant portion of which is under development. In addition, the Company has a 76.3% interest in
an unconsolidated joint venture which owns a single-tenant office property in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania.
The Company, organized as a Maryland corporation, has established an umbrella partnership
structure through the contribution of substantially all of its assets to the Operating Partnership,
organized as a limited partnership under the laws of Delaware. The Company conducts substantially
all of its business through the Operating Partnership. At June 30, 2009, the Company owned 95.7% of
the Operating Partnership and is its sole general partner. OP Units are economically equivalent to
the Companys common stock and are convertible into the Companys common stock at the option of the
holders on a one-to-one basis.
The Company derives substantially all of its revenues from rents and operating expense
reimbursements received pursuant to long-term leases. The Companys operating results therefore
depend on the ability of its tenants to make the payments required by the terms of their leases.
The Company focuses its investment activities on supermarket-anchored community shopping centers
and drug store-anchored convenience centers. The Company believes that, because of the need of
consumers to purchase food and other staple goods and services generally available at such centers,
its type of necessities-based properties should provide relatively stable revenue flows even
during difficult economic times. In April 2009, the Companys Board of Directors determined to
suspend payment of dividends for the balance of 2009 (the quarterly dividend paid in February had
already been reduced by one-half). The savings over the second half of 2009 will be approximately
$21.2 million. This decision was in response to the state of the economy, the difficult retail
environment and the constrained capital markets.
The Company has historically sought opportunities to acquire properties suited for development
and/or redevelopment, and, to a lesser extent than in the recent past, stabilized properties, where
it can utilize its experience in shopping center construction, renovation, expansion, re-leasing
and re-merchandising to achieve long-term cash flow growth and favorable investment returns. In
view of current economic conditions the Company expects to substantially
reduce both of these activities for the remainder of the year and thereafter as appropriate.
31
Summary of Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) requires the Company to make estimates
and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses,
and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management
evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and the allowance for
doubtful accounts receivable, real estate investments and purchase accounting allocations related
thereto, asset impairment, and derivatives used to hedge interest-rate risks. Managements
estimates are based both on information that is currently available and on various other
assumptions management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could
differ from those estimates and those estimates could be different under varying assumptions or
conditions.
The Company has identified the following critical accounting policies, the application of
which requires significant judgments and estimates:
Revenue Recognition
Rental income with scheduled rent increases is recognized using the straight-line method over
the respective terms of the leases. The aggregate excess of rental revenue recognized on a
straight-line basis over base rents under applicable lease provisions is included in straight-line
rents receivable on the consolidated balance sheet. Leases also generally contain provisions under
which the tenants reimburse the Company for a portion of property operating expenses and real
estate taxes incurred; such income is recognized in the periods earned. In addition, certain
operating leases contain contingent rent provisions under which tenants are required to pay, as
additional rent, a percentage of their sales in excess of a specified amount. The Company defers
recognition of contingent rental income until those specified targets are met.
The Company must make estimates as to the collectability of its accounts receivable related to
base rent, straight-line rent, expense reimbursements and other revenues. When management analyzes
accounts receivable and evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts, it considers
such things as historical bad debts, tenant creditworthiness, current economic trends, and changes
in tenants payment patterns. These estimates have a direct impact on net income, because a higher
bad debt allowance would result in lower net income, whereas a lower bad debt allowance would
result in higher net income.
Real Estate Investments
Real estate investments are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The provision for
depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives.
Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and betterments that do not substantially prolong the normal
useful life of an asset are charged to operations as incurred. Expenditures for betterments
32
that
substantially extend the useful lives of real estate assets are capitalized. Real estate
investments include costs of development and redevelopment activities, and construction in
progress. Capitalized costs, including interest and other carrying costs during the construction
and/or renovation periods, are included in the cost of the related asset and charged to operations
through depreciation over the assets estimated useful life. The Company is required to make
subjective estimates as to the useful lives of its real estate assets for purposes of determining
the amount of depreciation to reflect on an annual basis. These assessments have a direct impact on
net income. A shorter estimate of the useful life of an asset would have the effect of increasing
depreciation expense and lowering net income, whereas a longer estimate of the useful life of an
asset would have the effect of reducing depreciation expense and increasing net income.
The Companys capitalization policy on its development and redevelopment properties is guided
by SFAS No. 34, Capitalization of Interest Cost and SFAS No. 67, Accounting for Costs and
Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects. A variety of costs are incurred in the
acquisition, development and leasing of a property, such as pre-construction costs essential to the
development of the property, development costs, construction costs, interest costs, real estate
taxes, salaries and related costs, and other costs incurred during the period of development. After
a determination is made to capitalize a cost, it is allocated to the specific component of a
project that is benefited. The Company ceases capitalization on the portions substantially
completed and occupied, or held available for occupancy, and capitalizes only those costs
associated with the portions under construction. The Company considers a construction project as
substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the completion of tenant
improvements, but not later than one year from cessation of major construction activity.
Determination of when a development project is substantially complete and capitalization must cease
involves a degree of judgment. The effect of a longer capitalization period would be to increase
capitalized costs and would result in higher net income, whereas the effect of a shorter
capitalization period would be to reduce capitalized costs and would result in lower net income.
The Company applies SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and
Other Intangibles, in valuing real estate acquisitions. In connection therewith, the fair value of
real estate acquired is allocated to land, buildings and improvements. In addition, the fair value
of in-place leases is allocated to intangible lease assets and liabilities. The fair value of the
tangible assets of an acquired property is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant,
which value is then allocated to land, buildings and improvements based on managements
determination of the relative fair values of such assets. In valuing an acquired propertys
intangibles, factors considered by management include an estimate of carrying costs during the
expected lease-up periods, such as real estate taxes, insurance, other operating expenses, and
estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on its evaluation of
current market demand. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases, including leasing
commissions, tenant improvements, legal and other related costs. The principal impact on the
Companys financial statements of the adoption of SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations a
replacement of FASB Statement No. 141, which became effective January 1, 2009, is that the Company
has expensed most transaction costs relating to its acquisition activities.
33
The value of in-place leases is measured by the excess of (i) the purchase price paid for a
property after adjusting existing in-place leases to market rental rates, over (ii) the estimated
fair value of the property as if vacant. Above-market and below-market in-place lease values are
recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated
with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be received and
managements estimate of market lease rates, measured over the non-cancelable terms of the
respective leases. The value of other intangibles is amortized to expense, and the above-market and
below-market lease values are amortized to rental income, over the remaining non-cancelable terms
of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all
unamortized amounts relating to that lease would be recognized in operations at that time.
Management is required to make subjective assessments in connection with its valuation of real
estate acquisitions. These assessments have a direct impact on net income, because (i) above-market
and below-market lease intangibles are amortized to rental income, and (ii) the value of other
intangibles is amortized to expense. Accordingly, higher allocations to below-market lease
liability and other intangibles would result in higher rental income and amortization expense,
whereas lower allocations to below-market lease liability and other intangibles would result in
lower rental income and amortization expense.
The Company applies SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets, to recognize and measure impairment of long-lived assets. Management reviews each real
estate investment for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value
of a real estate investment may not be recoverable. The review of recoverability is based on an
estimate of the future cash flows that are expected to result from the real estate investments use
and eventual disposition. These estimates of cash flows consider factors such as expected future
operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and
other factors. If an impairment event exists due to the projected inability to recover the carrying
value of a real estate investment, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying
value exceeds estimated fair value. A real estate investment held for sale is carried at the lower
of its carrying amount or estimated fair value, less the cost of a potential sale. Depreciation and
amortization are suspended during the period the property is held for sale. Management is required
to make subjective assessments as to whether there are impairments in the value of its real estate
properties. These assessments have a direct impact on net income, because an impairment loss is
recognized in the period that the assessment is made.
Stock-Based Compensation
SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payments, establishes financial accounting and reporting
standards for stock-based employee compensation plans, including all arrangements by which
employees receive shares of stock or other equity instruments of the employer, or the employer
incurs liabilities to employees in amounts based on the price of the employers stock. The
statement also defines a fair value-based method of accounting for an employee stock option or
similar equity instrument.
34
The Companys 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the Incentive Plan) provides for the granting of
incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, performance units and
performance shares. The maximum number of shares of the Companys common stock that may be issued
pursuant to the Incentive Plan, as amended, is 2,750,000, and the maximum number of shares that may
be granted to a participant in any calendar year is 250,000. Substantially all grants issued
pursuant to the Incentive Plan are restricted stock grants which
specify vesting (i) upon the third anniversary of the date of grant for time-based grants, or
(ii) upon the completion of a designated period of performance for performance-based grants.
Timebased grants are valued according to the market price for the Companys common stock at the
date of grant. For performance-based grants, the Company engages an independent appraisal company
to determine the value of the shares at the date of grant, taking into account the underlying
contingency risks associated with the performance criteria. These value estimates have a direct
impact on net income, because higher valuations would result in lower net income, whereas lower
valuations would result in higher net income. The value of such grants is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over the respective vesting periods, as adjusted for fluctuations in the market
value of the Companys common stock, in accordance with the provisions of EITF No. 97-14,
Accounting for Deferred Compensation Arrangements Where Amounts Earned Are Held in a Rabbi Trust
and Invested.
Results of Operations
A substantial portion of the differences in results of operations between the three and six
months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, was the result of the Companys property
acquisition program and continuing development/redevelopment activities. During the period January
1, 2008 through June 30, 2009, the Company acquired six shopping and convenience centers
aggregating approximately 790,000 sq. ft. of GLA, purchased the joint venture minority interests in
four properties, and acquired approximately 182 acres of land for development, expansion and/or
future development, for a total cost of approximately $189.0 million. In addition, the Company
placed into service one ground-up development having an aggregate cost of approximately $2.7
million. Net income was $2.0 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and
2008, respectively, and $7.7 million and $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and
2008, respectively.

(i) |
|
Non-operating income and expense consists principally of interest expense
(including amortization of deferred financing costs), equity in income of an
unconsolidated joint venture, and gain on sale of a land parcel. |
|
(ii) |
|
Includes principally the results of properties acquired after January 1, 2008. Amounts
also include (a) unallocated property and construction management compensation and benefits
(including stock-based compensation), and (b) results of a property in Wyoming, Michigan where
the then existing building improvements were demolished in the second quarter of 2008 as part
of the redevelopment plans for the property. |
Properties held in both periods. The Company held 116 properties throughout the three
months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.
Total revenues decreased primarily as a result of (i) a decrease in non-cash amortization of
intangible lease liabilities primarily due to the completion of amortization periods established at
acquisition ($408,000), which also resulted in a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense,
(ii) a decrease in non-cash straight-line rental income primarily due to early lease terminations
($358,000), (iii) a decrease in tenant recoveries primarily due to a lower collection rate on
billable operating expenses ($291,000), (iv) a decrease in other income consisting primarily of
insurance proceeds received in the second quarter of 2008 at a single property ($143,000), (v) a
decrease in base rent ($9,000), all partially offset by (vi) an increase in percentage rent
($186,000).
Property operating expenses increased as a result of (i) an increase in real estate and other
property-related taxes primarily due to reassessments of properties recently acquired or
re-developed ($524,000), (ii) an increase in the provision for doubtful accounts primarily due to
more challenging economic conditions in 2009 for a number of our non-core tenants ($410,000), all
partially offset by (iii) a decrease in repairs and maintenance ($106,000), (iv) a decrease in
insurance expense ($85,000) and (v) a decrease in other operating expenses ($294,000).
36
General and administrative expenses increased primarily as a result of an increase in
stock-based compensation ($537,000), due to increased amortization of additional grants and changes
in the market price of the Companys common stock.
Terminated projects and acquisition transaction costs in the three months ended June 30, 2009
represent costs, including deposits, engineering and other professional fees and capitalized
interest, incurred in prior years for a potential development opportunity in Milford, Delaware that
the Company in the second quarter of 2009 determined would not go forward.
Non-operating income and expense, net, increased primarily due to (i) increased interest costs
from borrowings for acquired debt related to acquisitions of properties and the purchase of a joint
venture partners interest ($1,181,000) partially offset by lower prevailing interest rates
applicable to the Companys variable-rate debt ($878,000), (ii) higher amortization of deferred
financing costs ($431,000) primarily due to costs incurred in closing the secured revolving
development property credit facility in June 2008 and extending the secured revolving stabilized
property credit facility in January 2009, and (iii) lower interest income as a result of lower cash
balances and lower prevailing interest rates ($72,000), all partially offset by higher equity in
income of unconsolidated joint venture ($61,000).
Discontinued operations increased primarily due to (i) the sale of the Medina/Waffle House
property on April 23, 2009 for a gain ($277,000), which is partially offset by (ii) an impairment
charge ($170,000) recorded at June 30, 2009 related to the sale of the CVS at Westfield.

Properties held in both periods. The Company held 115 properties throughout the six

Total revenues decreased primarily as a result of (i) a decrease in non-cash straight-line
rental income primarily due to early lease terminations ($518,000), (ii) a decrease in non-cash
amortization of intangible lease liabilities primarily due to completion of amortization periods
established at acquisition ($499,000), which also resulted in a decrease in depreciation and
amortization expense, and (iii) a decrease in other income, consisting primarily of insurance
proceeds received in the second quarter of 2008 at a single property ($125,000), all partially
offset by (i) an increase in tenant recoveries primarily due to a net increase in billable property
operating expenses ($903,000), (ii) an increase in base rent ($60,000) and (iii) an increase in
percentage rent ($21,000).
Property operating expenses increased as a result of (i) an increase in real estate and other
property-related taxes ($949,000) primarily due to reassessments of properties recently acquired or
re-developed, (ii) an increase in snow removal costs ($882,000) and (iii) an increase in the
provision for doubtful accounts primarily due to more challenging economic conditions in 2009 for a
number of our non-core tenants ($843,000), all partially offset by decreases in other operating
expenses, primarily repairs and maintenance ($112,000) and landscaping ($81,000).
38
General and administrative expenses decreased primarily as a result of a decrease in
stock-based compensation ($399,000), due to increased amortization of additional grants and changes
in the market price of the Companys common stock.
Terminated projects and acquisition transaction costs in the six months ended June 30, 2009
represent (i) costs including deposits, engineering and other professional fees and capitalized
interest, incurred in prior years for a potential development opportunity in Milford, Delaware that
the Company in the second quarter of 2009 determined would not go forward ($2,423,000) and (ii)
costs incurred primarily in the first quarter of 2009 related to the acquisitions through joint
ventures of San Souci Plaza and New London Mall and the costs associated with a cancelled
acquisition (an aggregate of $1,525,000).
Non-operating income and expense, net, increased primarily due to (i) increased interest costs
from borrowings for acquired debt related to acquisitions of properties and the purchase of a joint
venture partners interest ($2,261,000), partially offset by lower prevailing interest rates
applicable to the Companys variable-rate debt ($1,847,000), (ii) higher amortization of deferred
financing costs ($665,000) primarily due to costs incurred in closing the secured revolving
development property credit facility in June 2008 and extending the secured revolving stabilized
property credit facility in January 2009, (iii) lower interest income as a result of lower cash
balances and lower prevailing interest rates ($218,000) which is partially offset by (iv) a gain on
the sale of a land parcel ($236,000) and (vi) higher equity in income of unconsolidated joint
venture ($170,000).
Discontinued operations increased primarily due to (i) the sale of the Medina/Waffle House
property on April 23, 2009 for a gain ($277,000), which is partially offset by (ii) an impairment
charge ($170,000) recorded at June 30, 2009 related to the sale of the CVS at Westfield.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company funds operating expenses and other short-term liquidity requirements, including
debt service, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, collateralization of certain interest rate
swap obligations, preferred and common dividend distributions, if made, and distributions to
minority interest partners, primarily from operations. The Company has also used its secured
revolving stabilized property credit facility for these purposes. The Company expects to fund
long-term liquidity requirements for property acquisitions, development and/or redevelopment costs,
capital improvements, and maturing debt initially with its credit facilities and construction
financing, and ultimately through a combination of issuing and/or assuming additional mortgage
debt, the sale of equity securities, the issuance of additional OP Units, and the sale of
properties or interests therein (including joint venture arrangements).
Throughout most of 2009 there has been a fundamental contraction of the U.S. credit and
capital markets, whereby banks and other credit providers have tightened their lending standards
and severely restricted the availability of credit. Accordingly, for this and other reasons, there
can be no assurance that the Company will have the availability of mortgage financing on completed
development projects, additional construction financing, net proceeds from the contribution of
properties to joint ventures, or proceeds from the refinancing of existing debt.
39
In April 2009, the Companys Board of Directors determined to suspend payment of dividends on
the Companys common stock/OP Units for the balance of 2009 (the quarterly dividend paid in
February had already been reduced by one-half). The savings over the second half of 2009 will be
approximately $21.2 million. This decision was in response to the state of the economy, the
difficult retail environment and the constrained capital markets. Management does not expect that
it will be required to make any significant common stock/OP Unit cash distributions in 2010 to
maintain the Companys REIT status for 2009.
The Company has a $300 million secured revolving stabilized property credit facility with Bank
of America, N.A. (as agent) and several other banks, pursuant to which the Company has pledged
certain of its shopping center properties as collateral for borrowings thereunder. The facility, as
amended, is expandable to $400 million, subject to certain conditions, including acceptable
collateral, and will expire on January 30, 2010. Borrowings outstanding under the facility
aggregated $249.2 million at June 30, 2009, and such borrowings bore interest at an average rate of
1.6% per annum. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the Companys option at either LIBOR
or the agent banks prime rate, plus a basis points (bps) spread depending upon the Companys
leverage ratio, as defined, measured quarterly. The LIBOR spread ranges from 110 to 145 bps (the
spread as of June 30, 2009 was 135 bps, which will remain in effect through September 30, 2009).
The prime rate spread ranges from 0 to 50 bps (the spread as of June 30, 2009 was 0 bps, which will
remain in effect through September 30, 2009). The facility also requires an unused portion fee of
15 bps. The credit facility has been used to fund acquisitions, development and redevelopment
activities, capital expenditures, mortgage repayments, dividend distributions, working capital and
other general corporate purposes. The facility is subject to customary financial covenants,
including limits on leverage and distributions (limited to 95% of funds from operations, as
defined), and other financial statement ratios. As of June 30, 2009, based on covenant measurements
and collateral in place, the Company was permitted to draw up to approximately $272.7 million, of
which approximately $23.5 million remained available as of that date. As of June 30, 2009, the
Company was in compliance with the financial covenants and financial statement ratios required by
the terms of the secured revolving stabilized property credit facility.
The Company is in the process of negotiating an amended and restated secured revolving
stabilized property credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. continuing as agent which, together
with three other lead lenders and other participating lenders, have committed as of June 30, 2009
to not less than $196 million. The principal terms of the new facility, as proposed, include (i)
an availability to be based primarily on appraisals, with a 67.5% advance rate, (ii) an interest
rate based on LIBOR plus 350 bps, with a 200 bps LIBOR floor, (iii) a leverage ratio limited to
67.5%, and (iv) a maturity date of January 31, 2012 plus a one-year extension option. Other terms
are expected to be similar to the present arrangement. The estimated amount that the Company would
be permitted to draw under the proposed facility, based on the proposed covenants and collateral in
place, will be in excess of the $231.0 million outstanding under the existing facility as of July
31, 2009. The remaining availability, however, is expected to be less than under the existing
facility. The Company expects to conclude the new facility prior to
40
September 30, 2009. There can
be no assurance, however, that the Company will receive the additional commitments necessary to
repay the amounts outstanding under the existing facility at the time the proposed transaction is
concluded, that the proposed amended and restated facility
will in fact be concluded, or that the amended and restated facility, if concluded, will be
concluded on the terms as presently proposed.
The Company has a $150 million secured revolving development property credit facility with
KeyBank, National Association (as agent) and several other banks, pursuant to which the Company has
pledged certain of its development and redevelopment projects as collateral for borrowings to be
made thereunder. This facility is expandable to $250 million, subject to certain conditions,
including acceptable collateral, and will expire in June 2011, subject to a one-year extension
option. Borrowings outstanding under the facility aggregated $71.7 million at June 30, 2009 and
bore interest at a rate of 2.6% per annum. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the
Companys option at either LIBOR or the agent banks prime rate, plus a spread of 225 bps or 75
bps, respectively. The facility also requires an unused portion fee of 15 bps. As of June 30, 2009,
based on covenant measurements and collateral in place, the Company was permitted to draw up to
approximately $79.5 million; of which $7.8 million will become available as approved project costs
are incurred. As of June 30, 2009, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants and
financial statement ratios required by the terms of the secured revolving development property
credit facility, which are similar to those contained in the secured revolving stabilized property
credit facility. The Company plans to add additional properties to the collateral pool of this
facility as their respective stages of development permit, with the intent of making a substantial
portion of the facility available.
The Company has a $77.7 million construction facility with Manufacturers and Traders Trust
Company (as agent) and several other banks, pursuant to which the Company has pledged its joint
venture development project in Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania as collateral for borrowings to be made
thereunder. This facility will expire in September 2011, subject to a one-year extension option.
Borrowings outstanding under the facility aggregated $50.2 million at June 30, 2009 and bore
interest at a rate of 2.6% per annum. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the Companys
option at either LIBOR plus a spread of 225 bps, or the agent banks prime rate. As of June 30,
2009, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants and financial statement ratios
required by the terms of the construction facility.
Mortgage loans payable at June 30, 2009 consisted of fixed-rate notes totaling $721.5 million
(with a weighted average interest rate of 5.8%) and variable-rate debt totaling $392.1 million,
consisting principally of advances outstanding under the Companys variable-rate credit facilities
(with a weighted average interest rate of 2.1%). Total mortgage loans payable and secured revolving
credit facilities have an overall weighted average interest rate of 4.5% and mature at various
dates through 2029. For the remainder of 2009, the Company has approximately $4.4 million of
scheduled debt principal amortization payments and no debt balloon payments. For 2010, the Company
has approximately $9.1 million of scheduled debt principal amortization payments and $9.3 million
of balloon payments.
The terms of several of the Companys mortgage loans payable require the Company to deposit
certain replacement and other reserves with its lenders. Such restricted cash is
41
generally
available only for property-level requirements for which the reserves have been established, and is
not available to fund other property-level or Company-level obligations.
The Company expects to have sufficient liquidity to effectively manage its business. Such
liquidity sources include (i) cash on hand, (ii) operating cash flows, (iii) availability under its
revolving credit facilities, (iv) property-specific financings, (v) sales of properties, (vi)
equity transactions, as appropriate, and/or (vii) joint venture arrangements.
Net Cash Flows
Operating Activities
Net cash flows provided by operating activities amounted to $25.0 million and $28.9 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Net cash flows for the 2009 period
reflect reductions of $1.3 million for payment of transaction costs (including an amount that would
have been treated as an investing activity prior to the adoption of SFAS 141(R)), and $5.3 million
reflecting the timing of payments of accounts payable and accrued expenses and of the receipt of
billed receivables.
Investing Activities
Net cash flows used in investing activities were $63.2 million and $70.3 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and were primarily the result of the Companys
property acquisition program and continuing development/redevelopment activities. During the six
months ended June 30, 2009, the Company acquired two shopping centers and incurred expenditures for
property improvements, an aggregate of $63.3 million. The Company also made a $0.4 million
additional investment in its unconsolidated joint venture. During the six months ended June 30,
2008, the Company acquired four shopping and convenience centers, acquired land for development,
expansion and/or future development and incurred expenditures for property improvements, an
aggregate of $50.4 million. and purchased the joint venture minority interests in four properties
for $17.5 million.
Financing Activities
Net cash flows provided by financing activities were $45.7 million and $28.6 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. During the first six months of 2009, the
Company received net advance proceeds of $16.4 million from its revolving credit facilities, $12.2
million in contributions from noncontrolling interests (minority interest partners), $21.0 million
in proceeds from its property-specific construction facility and $23.2 million from property
specific financings, offset by repayment of mortgage obligations of $13.5 million, preferred and
common stock dividend distributions of $9.0 million, distributions to noncontrolling interests
(limited partners) of $0.2 million and (minority partners) $2.0 million, and the payment of
financing costs of $2.4 million. During the first six months of 2008, the Company received net
advance proceeds of $64.0 million from its secured revolving stabilized property credit facility,
$27.5 million in proceeds from mortgage financings, and $4.3 million in contributions from
noncontrolling interests (minority interest partners), offset by repayment of
42
mortgage obligations
of $40.1 million, preferred and common stock dividend distributions of $23.9 million, payment of
financing costs of $1.9 million, and distributions to noncontrolling interests (minority and
limited partner interests) of $1.2 million.
Funds From Operations
Funds From Operations (FFO) is a widely-recognized non-GAAP financial measure for REITs that
the Company believes, when considered with financial statements determined in accordance with GAAP,
is useful to investors in understanding financial performance and providing a relevant basis for
comparison among REITs. In addition, FFO is useful to investors as it captures features particular
to real estate performance by recognizing that real estate generally appreciates over time or
maintains residual value to a much greater extent than do other depreciable assets. Investors
should review FFO, along with GAAP net income, when trying to understand an equity REITs operating
performance. The Company presents FFO because the Company considers it an important supplemental
measure of its operating performance and believes that it is frequently used by securities
analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs. Among other things,
the Company uses FFO or an adjusted FFO-based measure (i) as a criterion to determine
performance-based bonuses for members of senior management, (ii) in performance comparisons with
other shopping center REITs, and (iii) to measure compliance with certain financial covenants under
the terms of the Companys secured revolving credit facilities.
The Company computes FFO in accordance with the White Paper on FFO published by the National
Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), which defines FFO as net income
attributable to common shareholders (determined in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses
from debt restructurings and sales of properties, plus real estate-related depreciation and
amortization, and after adjustments for partnerships and joint ventures (which are computed to
reflect FFO on the same basis).
FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities and should not be considered
as an alternative to net income attributable to common shareholders or to cash flow from operating
activities. FFO is not indicative of cash available to fund ongoing cash needs, including the
ability to make cash distributions. Although FFO is a measure used for comparability in assessing
the performance of REITs, as the NAREIT White Paper only provides guidelines for computing FFO, the
computation of FFO may vary from one company to another. The following table sets forth the
Companys calculations of FFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008:

Inflation
Low to moderate levels of inflation during the past several years have favorably impacted the
Companys operations by stabilizing operating expenses. However, the Companys properties have
tenants whose leases include expense reimbursements and other provisions to minimize the effect of
inflation. At the same time, low inflation has had the indirect effect of reducing the Companys
ability to increase tenant rents upon the signing of new leases and/or lease renewals.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
One of the principal market risks facing the Company is interest rate risk on its credit
facilities. The Company may, when advantageous, hedge its interest rate risk using derivative
financial instruments. The Company is not subject to foreign currency risk.
44
The Company is exposed to interest rate changes primarily through (i) the variable-rate credit
facilities used to maintain liquidity, fund capital expenditures, development/redevelopment
activities, and acquisitions, (ii) property-specific variable-rate construction financing, and
(iii) other property-specific variable-rate mortgages. The Companys objectives with respect to
interest rate risk are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on operations and cash flows,
and to lower its overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, the Company may borrow at
fixed rates and may enter into derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps and
caps, in order to mitigate its interest rate risk on a related variable-rate financial instrument.
The Company does not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.
At June 30, 2009, the Company had approximately $47.9 million of mortgage loans payable subject to
interest rate swaps which converted LIBOR-based variable rates to fixed annual rates ranging from
5.2% to 6.8% per annum. In addition, the Company had an interest rate swap applicable to
anticipated permanent financing of $28.0 million for its development joint venture project in
Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania.
At June 30, 2009, long-term debt consisted of fixed-rate mortgage loans payable and
variable-rate debt (principally the Companys variable-rate credit facilities). The average
interest rate on the $721.5 million of fixed-rate indebtedness outstanding was 5.8%, with
maturities at various dates through 2029. The average interest rate on the $392.1 million of
variable-rate debt (including $320.9 million in advances under the Companys revolving credit
facilities) was 2.1%. The secured revolving stabilized property credit facility matures in January
2010 and the secured revolving development property credit facility matures in June 2011, subject
to a one-year extension option.
At June 30, 2009, the Company had accrued liabilities (included in accounts payable and
accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheet) for (i) $3.3 million relating to the fair value
of interest rate swaps applicable to existing mortgage loans payable of $47.9 million, and (ii)
$3.2 million relating to an interest rate swap applicable to anticipated permanent financing of
$28.0 million for its development joint venture project in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, bearing an
effective date of June 1, 2010, termination date of June 1, 2020, and a fixed rate of 5.56%.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed in its filings under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 is reported within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In this regard, the Company has formed a Disclosure
Committee currently comprised of several of the Companys executive officers as well as certain
other employees with knowledge of information that may be considered in the SEC reporting process.
The Committee has responsibility for the development and assessment of the financial and
non-financial information to be included in the reports filed with the SEC, and assists the
Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in connection with their
certifications contained in the Companys SEC filings. The Committee meets regularly and reports to
the Audit Committee on a quarterly or more frequent basis. The Companys principal executive and
financial officers have evaluated its disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2009, and
have determined that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
45
During the three months ended June 30, 2009, there have been no changes in the internal
controls over financial reporting or in other factors that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, these internal controls over financial reporting.
