Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On May 3, 2017, Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Registrant”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the first quarter 2017, and published supplemental information for the first quarter 2017 to its website. The press release and the supplemental information are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such exhibits and the information set forth therein are deemed to have been furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.


Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statement or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review
On May 2, 2017, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, acting on the recommendation of management, and after discussion with Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”), the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm, concluded that the Registrant’s audited financial statements as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and for the three years ended December 31, 2016 included in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods within those years, included in the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") should be restated to reflect the correction of the errors discussed below. In addition, it was concluded that management’s report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and EY’s reports both on the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and for the three years ended December 31, 2016 as well as EY's reports on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, should no longer be relied upon.

Historically, the Registrant has not allocated a portion of its goodwill to the carrying value of real estate held for sale and real estate sold when determining impairments or gain or loss on sale, as was required under Accounting Standard Codification 350. As a result, the Registrant has overstated previously reported gains on dispositions of real estate assets or, in certain instances, understated the loss on impairment of real estate assets, in periods beginning after December 1, 2010 through September 30, 2016. The cumulative estimated impact of the non-cash adjustments to correct these errors will be a reduction in goodwill and a corresponding increase in cumulative distributions in excess of earnings of approximately $81.2 million as of December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2015, the cumulative estimated impact of the non-cash adjustments to correct these errors will be a reduction in goodwill and cumulative distributions in excess of earnings of approximately $75.3 million and $73.0 million, respectively, and a corresponding increase in other assets held for sale of approximately $2.3 million. The estimated reduction in earnings for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 is approximately $8.2 million, $41.7 million, and $2.4 million, respectively. The impact on amounts prior to 2014 will be revised when the amended reports are filed.

The non-cash adjustments to correct this error have been reflected in the financial information included in the Registrant’s press release and supplemental financial information attached as Exhibit 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K. Non-GAAP measures such as funds from operations, core funds from operations, adjusted funds from operations and same store NOI reported in the press release and for prior periods were not impacted by this error. In addition, the Registrant believes it remains in compliance with all of its debt agreements and financial covenants.

While the Company currently expects to complete this process prior to or concurrently with filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, there can be no assurance as to the precise timing when this process will be completed or what periods will be impacted as a result; however, the Company expects to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 by May 10, 2017. Prior to or concurrently with that filing, the Registrant expects to amend its previously issued audited consolidated financial statements and other financial information contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 to correct these errors once its final analysis and the related audit procedures by EY are complete.





The following tables summarize the anticipated effects of the non-cash adjustments to correct these errors to amounts previously reported:

Piedmont Office Realty Trust Reports First Quarter 2017 Results
ATLANTA, May 3, 2017 --Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. ("Piedmont" or the "Company") (NYSE:PDM), an owner of Class A office properties in select sub-markets located primarily within eight major U.S. office markets, today announced its results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

Highlights for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2017:

Reported Net Income Applicable to Common Stockholders of $0.10 per diluted share as compared with $0.07 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2016;
Achieved Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO") of $0.45 per diluted share as compared with $0.41 for the quarter ended March 31, 2016;
Reported an approximate 17% increase in Same Store NOI- Cash Basis;
Completed approximately 400,000 square feet of leasing during the first quarter, of which 38% related to new leases; and
Entered into a binding contract with limited contingencies to sell Two Independence Square, an approximately 606,000 square foot office building located in Washington, D.C., for $359.6 million.

Donald A. Miller, CFA, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are pleased with our quarterly financial results, as almost all of our metrics reflected meaningful growth. Leasing activity for the first quarter was also encouraging with activity across all of our key markets. The results for the quarter include the contribution of a large asset which is expected to be sold during the second quarter.”

Results for the Quarter ended March 31, 2017

Piedmont recognized net income applicable to common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2017 of $15.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, as compared with $10.4 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2016, with the increase primarily attributable to new leases commencing over the last twelve months, as well as net transactional activity.

Funds From Operations ("FFO"), which removes the impact of gain/loss on sales, as well as depreciation and amortization, and Core FFO, which further removes the impact of acquisition expenses, were both $0.45 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2017, as compared with $0.41 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2016, with the increase primarily due to the same factors impacting net income noted above, including modest one-time lease restructuring fees of approximately $1.0 million.

Revenues and property operating costs for the three months ended March 31, 2017 also increased due to net transactional activity and new leases commencing over the last twelve months. Revenues and property





operating costs for the three months ended March 31, 2017 were $148.5 million and $55.4 million, respectively, compared to $138.0 million and $54.3 million, respectively, for the same period a year ago.

General and administrative expense was $8.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $7.8 million for the same period in 2016, primarily as a result of increased accruals for potential stock-based compensation expense during the current period. Interest expense increased $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016, due to a reduction in the amount of capitalized interest as three recently completed development projects were placed in service during the current period.

Leasing Update

The Company's leasing volume for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 totaled approximately 400,000 square feet, with approximately 38% related to new leases. Leasing highlights for the first quarter of 2017 included: an approximately 53,000 square foot, 10-year new lease with the Social Security Administration at One Independence Square in Washington, D.C.; an approximately 38,000 square foot, 7+ year lease renewal with Futurewei Technologies, Inc. at 400 Bridgewater Crossing in Bridgewater, NJ; and an approximately 33,000 square foot, 7+ new lease with Ipswitch at 5&15 Wayside Road in Burlington, MA. As a result of the inclusion of the Company's three recently completed development projects in the Company's operating statistics for the first time during the first quarter, the Company's leased percentage as of March 31, 2017 was 91.5%.

Weighted average lease term was approximately 6.8 years as of March 31, 2017. Same Store NOI increased 16.9% and 9.6% on a cash and accrual basis, respectively, compared to the first quarter of the prior year, primarily reflecting expiration of abatement periods and the commencement of leases over the last twelve months. Details outlining Piedmont's significant upcoming lease expirations, the status of current leasing activity, and a schedule of significant near-term abatement periods can be found in the Company's quarterly supplemental information package available at www.piedmontreit.com.

Transactional Activity

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, Piedmont entered into a binding contract with limited contingencies to sell Two Independence Square, its 606,000 square foot, 9-story, office building located in the Southwest submarket of Washington, D.C. and leased to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, for $359.6 million ($593 per square foot). The transaction is expected to close in mid- 2017.

Subsequent Events

Second Quarter 2017 Dividend Declaration

On May 2, 2017, the board of directors of Piedmont declared dividends for the second quarter of 2017 in the amount of $0.21 per share on its common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 26, 2017, payable on June 16, 2017.

Renewal of Stock Repurchase Plan

Also on May 2, 2017, the board of directors of Piedmont re-authorized the Company's stock repurchase plan to permit the purchase of shares of common stock having an aggregate purchase price of up to $250 million





between May 2, 2017 and May 2, 2019. This authorization supersedes and replaces our previously authorized stock repurchase plan.

Changes in Goodwill Accounting (and Related Prior Period Financial Information)

During the preparation and review of the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the Company concluded that it had not properly accounted for goodwill in connection with real estate assets sold or held for sale in prior periods. Specifically, in prior periods, the Company did not allocate a portion of its goodwill to the carrying value of real estate held for sale and real estate sold when determining impairments or gain or loss on sale. As a result, the Company overstated previously reported gains on dispositions of real estate assets or, in certain instances, understated the loss on impairment of real estate assets, in periods beginning after December 1, 2010 through September 30, 2016. The cumulative estimated impact of the non-cash adjustments to correct these errors will be a reduction in goodwill and a corresponding increase in cumulative distributions in excess of earnings of approximately $81.2 million as of December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2015, the cumulative estimated impact of the non-cash adjustments to correct these errors will be a reduction in goodwill and cumulative distributions in excess of earnings of approximately $75.3 million and $73.0 million, respectively, and a corresponding increase in other assets held for sale of approximately $2.3 million. The estimated impact to earnings for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 is approximately $8.2 million, $41.7 million, and $2.4 million, respectively. Additional detail regarding the effects of this error can be found in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed simultaneously with this release.

The estimated impact of these errors above, as well as the additional financial information provided in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, are preliminary. This information remains subject to change as the Company completes the process of amending its previously issued financial statements. While the Company currently expects to complete this process prior to or concurrently with filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, there can be no assurance as to the precise timing when this process will be completed or what periods will be impacted as a result; however, the Company expects to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 by May 10, 2017.

These estimates reflect management's view of current market conditions and incorporate certain economic and operational assumptions and projections. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates





based on a variety of factors, including major acquisitions and dispositions, as well as those factors discussed under "Forward Looking Statements" below.

Assuming the Two Independence Square property sale closes and transaction proceeds are used to pay down outstanding debt, future earnings are estimated to be impacted by $0.01 per diluted share per quarter of Net Income and $0.02 per diluted share per quarter of NAREIT FFO and Core FFO. Note that individual quarters may fluctuate on both a cash basis and an accrual basis due to lease commencements and expirations, abatement periods, the timing of repairs and maintenance, capital expenditures, capital markets activities, seasonal general and administrative expenses, and one-time revenue or expense events. In addition, the Company's guidance is based on information available to management as of the date of this release.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental information as of and for the period ended March 31, 2017 contain certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, Same Store NOI (cash basis), Property NOI (cash basis) and Core EBITDA. Definitions and reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP metrics are included below and in the accompanying quarterly supplemental information.
Each of the non-GAAP measures included in this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental financial information has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of the Company’s results calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s presentation of non-GAAP measures in this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental information may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies, including other REITs. The Company may also change the calculation of any of the non-GAAP measures included in this news release and the accompanying supplemental financial information from time to time in light of its then existing operations to include other adjustments that may affect its operations.

The following are some of the factors that could cause the Company`s actual results and its expectations to differ materially from those described in the Company`s forward-looking statements: Economic, regulatory, and/or socio-economic changes (including accounting standards) that impact the real estate market generally, or that could affect patterns of use of commercial office space; the impact of competition on our efforts to renew existing leases or re-let space on terms similar to existing leases; changes in the economies and other conditions affecting the office sector in general and the specific markets in which we operate, particularly in Washington, D.C., the New York metropolitan area, and Chicago where we have high concentrations of our Annualized Lease Revenue; lease terminations or lease defaults, particularly by one of our large lead tenants; the effect on us of adverse market and economic conditions, including any resulting impairment charges on both our long-lived assets or goodwill; the success of our real estate strategies and investment objectives, including our ability to identify and consummate suitable acquisitions and divestitures; the illiquidity of real estate investments, including the resulting impediment on our ability to quickly respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties; the risks and uncertainties associated with our acquisition of properties, many of which risks and uncertainties may not be known at the time of acquisition; development and construction delays and resultant increased costs and risks; our real estate development strategies may not be successful; future acts of terrorism in any of the major metropolitan areas in which we own properties, or future cybersecurity attacks against us or any of our tenants; costs of complying with governmental laws and regulations; additional risks and costs associated with directly managing properties occupied by government tenants; the effect of future offerings of debt or equity securities or changes in market interest rates on the value of our common stock; uncertainties associated with environmental and other regulatory matters; potential changes in political environment and reduction in federal and/or state funding of our governmental tenants; any change in the





financial condition of any of our large lead tenants; the effect of any litigation to which we are, or may become, subject; changes in tax laws impacting REITs and real estate in general, as well as our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”); the results of our preparation of amendments to our previously filed financial statements and public reports, including any audit or review of such amendments by our auditors; our confirmation of the time periods to be covered by such amendments; the implementation of any necessary changes to our internal controls and procedures in a timely and cost efficient manner; the future effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures; and other factors, including the risk factors discussed under Item 1A. of Piedmont’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. The Company cannot guarantee the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements contained in this press release, and the Company does not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

(1) Includes adjustments for consolidated properties and for our proportionate share of amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint ventures.
(2) Excludes depreciation of non real estate assets.
(3) Capital expenditures of a recurring nature related to tenant improvements and leasing commissions that do not incrementally enhance the underlying assets' income generating capacity. Tenant improvements, leasing commissions, building capital and deferred lease incentives incurred to lease space that was vacant at acquisition, leasing costs for spaces vacant for greater than one year, leasing costs for spaces at newly acquired properties for which in-place leases expire shortly after acquisition, improvements associated with the expansion of a building and renovations that change the underlying classification of a building are excluded from this measure.






*Definitions:
 
Funds From Operations ("FFO"): The Company calculates FFO in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property and impairment losses, adding back depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. These adjustments can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of depreciation, amortization and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs, which implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. The Company also believes that FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of FFO may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.
 
Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"): The Company calculates Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjusting for gains or losses on the extinguishment of swaps and/or debt, acquisition-related expenses and any significant non-recurring items. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to the Company’s core business operations. As a result, the Company believes that Core FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential. Other REITs may not define Core FFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core FFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
 
Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO"): The Company calculates AFFO by starting with Core FFO and adjusting for non-incremental capital expenditures and acquisition-related costs and then adding back non-cash items including: non-real estate depreciation, straight-lined rents and fair value lease adjustments, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that AFFO is helpful to investors as a meaningful supplemental comparative performance measure of our ability to make incremental capital investments. Other REITs may not define AFFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of AFFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

(1) Includes amounts attributable to consolidated properties and our proportionate share of amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint ventures.
(2)Other investments consist of our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, active redevelopment and development projects, land, and recently completed redevelopment and development projects for which some portion of operating expenses were capitalized during the current or prior reporting periods. The operating results from 3100 Clarendon Boulevard in Arlington, Virginia, Enclave Place in Houston, Texas, and 500 TownPark in Lake Mary, Florida, are included in this line item.

*Definitions:

Core EBITDA: The Company calculates Core EBITDA as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and incrementally removing any impairment losses, gains or losses from sales of property and other significant infrequent items that create volatility within our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our core ongoing business. Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core EBITDA is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the performance of the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization), as well as items that are not part of normal day-to-day operations of the Company’s business. Other REITs may not define Core EBITDA in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core EBITDA may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI"): The Company calculates Property NOI by starting with Core EBITDA and adjusting for general and administrative expense, income associated with property management performed by Piedmont for other organizations and other income or expense items for the Company, such as interest income from loan investments or costs from the pursuit of non-consummated transactions. The Company may





present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Property NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of income generated by its properties alone without the administrative overhead of the Company. Other REITs may not define Property NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Property NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI"): The Company calculates Same Store NOI as Property NOI attributable to the properties for which the following criteria were met during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods: i) they were owned, ii) they were not under development / redevelopment, and iii) none of the operating expenses for which were capitalized. Same Store NOI also excludes amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint venture and land assets. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Same Store NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Same Store NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of the income generated from the same group of properties from one period to the next. Other REITs may not define Same Store NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Same Store NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

Notice to Readers:
Please refer to page 48 for a discussion of important risks related to the business of Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc., as well as an investment in its securities, including risks that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from results and events referred to in the forward-looking information. Considering these risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and limitations, the forward-looking statements about leasing, financial operations, leasing prospects, etc. contained in this quarterly supplemental information report might not occur.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. In addition, many of the schedules herein contain rounding to the nearest thousands or millions and, therefore, the schedules may not total due to this rounding convention. The Company has restated certain GAAP basis data included herein for prior periods to reflect an approximate amount of an accounting treatment change which allocates a portion of recorded goodwill to each asset disposition that occurred between December 1, 2010 and September 30, 2016 in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification 350 (ASC 350; relating to business combinations). During that particular period of time, building dispositions were considered dispositions of businesses according to ASC 350, and, therefore, a portion of the Company's total goodwill needed to be allocated to the sale of each business. This change has no impact on net income for the first quarter of 2017 nor the first quarter of 2016. Furthermore, these non-cash adjustments have not impacted current nor previously reported non-GAAP measures, including FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, and Same Store NOI, nor do they affect the Company's financial guidance for 2017.
To supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this report contains certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, Same Store NOI, Property NOI and Core EBITDA. Definitions and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP metrics are included beginning on page 39. Each of the non-GAAP measures included in this report has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of the Company’s results calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s presentation of non-GAAP measures in this report may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies, including other REITs. The Company may also change the calculation of any of the non-GAAP measures included in this report from time to time in light of its then existing operations to include other adjustments that may affect its operations.

Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc.
Financial Highlights
As of March 31, 2017


Financial Results (1) 

Net income attributable to Piedmont for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $15.1 million, or $0.10 per share (diluted), compared to $10.4 million, or $0.07 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2016. The increase in net income attributable to Piedmont during the first quarter of 2017 when compared to the same period in 2016 was principally attributable to higher occupancy in 2017, along with net income contributed from properties acquired since the beginning of 2016 in excess of that lost from dispositions during the same time period.

Funds from operations (FFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $66.2 million, or $0.45 per share (diluted), compared to $59.9 million, or $0.41 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2016. The increase in FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2017 when compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily attributable to an increase in average occupancy of approximately 3% largely related to the 2.4 million square feet of leasing completed since the beginning of 2016, along with a larger amount of FFO contributed from properties acquired since the beginning of 2016 when compared to that given up from assets sold during the same time period and a modest $1.0 million lease restructuring fee. The increase in FFO was partially offset by a greater amount of interest expense principally attributable to the completion of the Company's development and re-development projects, allocated interest expense for which had been capitalized in 2016.

Core funds from operations (Core FFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $66.2 million, or $0.45 per share (diluted), compared to $59.9 million, or $0.41 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2016. Core FFO is defined as FFO with incremental adjustments for certain non-recurring items such as net insurance recoveries or losses, acquisition-related expenses(2) and other significant non-recurring items. The increase in Core FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily attributable to the items described above for changes in FFO.

Adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $54.1 million, compared to $43.6 million for the same quarter in 2016. The increase in AFFO for the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016 was primarily due to the items described above for changes in FFO and Core FFO, in addition to a decrease in non-incremental capital expenditures and the deduction of a lesser amount of straight line rent adjustments in 2017 when compared to 2016.

The Company has restated certain GAAP basis data included herein for prior periods to reflect an approximate amount of an accounting treatment change which allocates a portion of recorded goodwill to each asset disposition that occurred between December 1, 2010 and September 30, 2016 in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification 350 (ASC 350; relating to business combinations). During that particular period of time, building dispositions were considered dispositions of businesses according to ASC 350, and, therefore, a portion of the Company's total goodwill needed to be allocated to the sale of each business. This change has no impact on net income for the first quarter of 2017 nor the first quarter of 2016. Furthermore, these non-cash adjustments have not impacted current nor previously reported non-GAAP measures, including FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, and Same Store NOI, nor do they affect the Company's financial guidance for 2017. The Company remains in compliance with its debt agreements and financial covenants.

Operations and Leasing

On January 1, 2017, Piedmont's two development properties and one re-development property were placed in service and are now included in the Company's operating portfolio for statistical reporting purposes. The development properties that were placed in service during the first quarter of 2017 are Enclave Place, a 300,900 square foot office property located in Houston, TX, and 500 TownPark, a 134,400 square foot office property located in Lake Mary, FL; the re-development property that was placed in service is 3100 Clarendon Boulevard, a 260,900 square foot office and retail property located in Arlington, VA.

On a square footage leased basis, our total in-service office portfolio was 91.5% leased as of March 31, 2017, as compared to 94.2% in the prior quarter and 91.7% a year earlier. The decrease in leased percentage is primarily a result of placing into service the Company's two development properties and one re-development property, all of which are in lease-up phase. On a same store basis, the office portfolio leased percentage increased to 94.1% as of March 31, 2017 from 92.3% a year earlier. Please refer to page 27 for additional leased percentage information.
(1)
FFO, Core FFO and AFFO are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures. See page 39 for definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures, and pages 15 and 41 for reconciliations of FFO, Core FFO and AFFO to Net Income.
(2)
Piedmont early adopted the revised FASB standard on the accounting treatment of Business Combinations, which results in certain real asset transactions falling outside the scope of the standard. The result is that, in many cases, acquisition costs will be capitalized, and, therefore, will not be included in net income. In such cases, there will be no add-back of acquisition expenses to Core FFO. This revised standard is applied to transactions occurring after October 1, 2016.

The weighted average remaining lease term of our portfolio was 6.8 years(1) as of March 31, 2017 as compared to 6.9 years at December 31, 2016.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company completed just under 400,000 square feet of total leasing. Of the total leasing activity during the quarter, we signed new tenant leases for 153,091 square feet and renewal leases for 240,575 square feet. The average committed tenant improvement cost per square foot per year of lease term for new tenant leases signed at our consolidated office properties during the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $4.43 and the same measure for renewal leases was $2.18, resulting in a weighted average of $3.40 for all leasing activity completed during the period (see page 33).

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we executed six leases greater than 20,000 square feet with lengths of term of more than one year at our consolidated office properties. Information on those leases is set forth below.

Future Lease Commencements and Abatements

As of March 31, 2017, our overall leased percentage was 91.5% and our economic leased percentage was 84.1%. The difference between overall leased percentage and economic leased percentage is attributable to two factors:

1.
leases which have been contractually entered into for currently vacant spaces but have not yet commenced (amounting to 382,476 square feet of leases as of March 31, 2017, or 2.0% of the office portfolio); and
2.
leases which have commenced but the tenants have not commenced paying full rent due to rental abatements (amounting to 1,187,436 square feet of leases as of March 31, 2017, or a 5.4% impact to leased percentage on an economic basis).

The gap between reported leased percentage and economic leased percentage is anticipated to fluctuate over time as i) new leases are signed for vacant spaces and/or ii) abatements associated with existing or newly executed leases commence and expire (see page 8 for more detail on existing large leases with abatements). As presented on page 8, abatements related to large leases comprising nearly 320,000 square feet will cease to be in effect at the end of the second quarter of 2017.

Piedmont has leases with many large corporate office space users. The average size of lease in the Company's portfolio is approximately 23,000 square feet. Due to the large size and length of term of new leases, Piedmont typically signs leases many months in advance of their anticipated lease commencement dates. Presented below is a schedule (1) of uncommenced leases greater than 50,000 square feet and their anticipated commencement dates. Lease renewals are excluded from this schedule.

The schedule is not specifically intended to provide details about the current population of executed but not commenced leases; it does, however, provide details for all uncommenced leases that are greater than 50,000 square feet in size and not renewals, whether or not the spaces for which the leases were signed are vacant.
(2)
The lease will commence in phases. The first phase, consisting of the currently vacant space, will commence in the second quarter of 2017, while the second phase, consisting of the balance of the tenant's space, will commence in the second quarter of 2018.

Many recently negotiated leases provide for rental abatement concessions to tenants. Rental abatements typically occur at the beginning of a new lease's term. The Company's current cash net operating income and AFFO are being negatively impacted, therefore, by the large number of recently commenced new leases. Presented below is a schedule of leases with abatements of 50,000 square feet or greater that are either currently under abatement or will be so within the next twelve months.

Financing and Capital Activity

Among Piedmont's stated objectives for 2017 is to be a net seller of assets by harvesting capital through the disposition of non-core assets and assets in which the Company believes values have been maximized, and to use the sale proceeds to:
invest in real estate assets with higher overall return prospects in selected markets in which we have, or plan to have, a significant operating presence and that otherwise meet our strategic criteria;
reduce leverage levels by repaying outstanding debt; and/or
repurchase Company stock when market conditions allow.
Information on the Company's recent accomplishments in furtherance of its strategic objectives is presented below.

Dispositions
On February 6, 2017, Piedmont entered into a binding contract with limited contingencies to sell Two Independence Square, a nine-story, 100% leased, 606,000 square foot office building located in Washington, DC. The sale price is $359.6 million, or approximately $593 per square foot. The sale is expected to close mid-year 2017.
 
There were no dispositions completed during the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

Acquisitions
There were no acquisitions completed during the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

For additional information on acquisitions and dispositions completed over the previous eighteen months, please refer to page 37.

Development
On January 1, 2017, the following development and re-development properties were placed in service and are in lease-up phase:
500 TownPark, a 134,400 square foot, four-story office building that is well located within a master planned, mixed-use development in Lake Mary, FL, and leased predominantly to Continental Casualty Company;
3100 Clarendon Boulevard, a 260,900 square foot office and retail property located in an amenity-rich area adjacent to the Clarendon Metrorail Station in Arlington, VA, which was upgraded to Class A after being occupied by a U.S. Government agency for over 15 years; and
Enclave Place, a 300,900 square foot office building located within a deed-restricted and architecturally-controlled office park in the Energy Corridor in Houston, TX.

The Company currently has no additional developments or re-developments underway. Additional detail on the Company's developable land parcels, all of which are adjacent to existing Piedmont properties, can be found on page 38.

Finance
As of March 31, 2017, our ratio of debt to total gross assets was 38.2%. This debt ratio is based on total principal amount outstanding for our various loans at March 31, 2017.
As of March 31, 2017, our average net debt to Core EBITDA ratio was 6.1 x, a decrease from 6.4 x at December 31, 2016.
Stock Repurchase Program
Since the stock repurchase program began in December 2011, Piedmont has repurchased a total of 28.3 million shares at an average price of $17.17 per share, or approximately $486.4 million in aggregate (before the consideration of transaction costs). No common stock repurchases were made during the first quarter of 2017. As of quarter end, Board-approved capacity remaining for additional repurchases totaled approximately $70.2 million under the stock repurchase plan. Repurchases of stock under the program will be made at the Company's discretion and will depend on market conditions, other investment opportunities and other factors that the Company deems relevant.

Dividend
On February 8, 2017, the Board of Directors of Piedmont declared a dividend for the first quarter of 2017 in the amount of $0.21 per common share outstanding to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 24, 2017. The dividend was paid on March 17, 2017. The Company's dividend payout percentage (for dividends declared) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 46% of Core FFO and 56% of AFFO.


9



Subsequent Events

On May 2, 2017, the Board of Directors of Piedmont declared a dividend for the second quarter of 2017 in the amount of $0.21 per common share outstanding to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 26, 2017. The dividend is expected to be paid on June 16, 2017.

On May 2, 2017, given that the program was nearing the end of its authorization period, the Board of Directors of Piedmont renewed the Company's share repurchase program by authorizing up to $250 million in share repurchases over the next two years. Repurchases of stock under the program will be made at the Company's discretion and will depend on market conditions, other investment opportunities and other factors that the Company deems relevant.

** There are numerous variables that influence the Company's 2017 guidance range. Two such items that could significantly impact the range are the amount and timing of potential capital markets activities. As the year progresses and more definitive information is obtained on those and other factors, the guidance range will be adjusted and/or narrowed as appropriate. If the sale of Two Independence Square closes and the proceeds are used to pay down outstanding debt, future earnings are estimated to be impacted by approximately $0.01 per diluted share per quarter of Net Income and $0.02 per diluted share per quarter of NAREIT Funds from Operations and Core Funds from Operations. Additional disclosures and/or revisions will be made when warranted.

These estimates reflect management’s view of current market conditions and incorporate certain economic and operational assumptions and projections. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Note that individual quarters may fluctuate on both a cash basis and an accrual basis due to the timing of lease commencements and expirations, repairs and maintenance, capital expenditures, capital markets activities, seasonal general and administrative expenses, accrued potential performance-based compensation expenses, and one-time revenue or expense events. In addition, the Company’s guidance is based on information available to management as of the date of this supplemental report.

(1)
Please refer to page 27 for additional leased percentage information.
(2)
Economic leased percentage excludes the square footage associated with executed but not commenced leases for currently vacant spaces and the square footage associated with tenants receiving rental abatements (after proportional adjustments for tenants receiving only partial rental abatements). Due to variations in rental abatement structures whereby some abatements are provided for the first few months of each lease year as opposed to being provided entirely at the beginning of the lease, there will be variability to the economic leased percentage over time as abatements commence and expire. Please see the Future Lease Commencements and Abatements section of Financial Highlights for details on near-term abatements for large leases.
(3)
Amount in the third quarter of 2016 includes $22.6 million in impairment losses associated with 9200 and 9211 Corporate Boulevard located in Rockville, MD. Amount in the second quarter of 2016 includes $8.3 million in impairment losses associated with 150 West Jefferson located in Detroit, MI, and 9221 Corporate Boulevard located in Rockville, MD.
(4)
Amounts have been adjusted to reflect the cumulative effect of allocating a portion of the Company’s goodwill to the carrying value of real estate sold between December 1, 2010 and September 30, 2016, as required under Accounting Standard Codification 350. See item 4.02 in the Company’s 8-K, filed May 3, 2017.
(5)
Core EBITDA margin is calculated as Core EBITDA divided by total revenues (including revenues associated with discontinued operations).
(6)
The fixed charge coverage ratio is calculated as Core EBITDA divided by the sum of interest expense, principal amortization, capitalized interest and preferred dividends. The Company had no preferred dividends during any of the periods presented; the Company had capitalized interest of $78,939 for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, $1,181,074 for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, $1,476,949 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, $735,192 for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, and $1,162,192 for the quarter ended March 31, 2016; the Company had principal amortization of $223,326 for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, $220,256 for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, $288,972 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, $213,255 for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, and $140,539 for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.
(7)
For the purposes of this calculation, we annualize the period's Core EBITDA and use the average daily balance of debt outstanding during the period, less cash and cash equivalents and escrow deposits and restricted cash as of the end of the period.
(8)
Net debt is calculated as the total principal amount of debt outstanding minus cash and cash equivalents and escrow deposits and restricted cash. The decrease in net debt in the second quarter of 2016 was primarily attributable to the use of a portion of the proceeds from the sales of 1055 East Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena, CA, Fairway Center II in Brea, CA, and 1901 Main Street in Irvine, CA, to repay debt. The increase in net debt in the third and fourth quarters of 2016 and the first quarter of 2017 was primarily attributable to the timing of portfolio recycling activities which resulted in acquisitions exceeding dispositions, the funding shortfall for which was temporarily funded with debt.

(1)
All of Piedmont's outstanding debt as of March 31, 2017, was interest-only debt with the exception of the $31.4 million of debt associated with 5 Wall Street located in Burlington, MA.
(2)
Weighted average stated interest rate is calculated based upon the principal amounts outstanding.
(3)
Amount represents the $223 million outstanding balance as of March 31, 2017 on the $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility and the $170 million unsecured term loan. Two other loans, the $300 million unsecured term loan that closed in 2011 and the $300 million unsecured term loan that closed in 2013, have stated variable rates. However, Piedmont entered into $300 million in notional amount of interest rate swap agreements which effectively fix the interest rate on the 2011 unsecured term loan at 3.35% through its maturity date of January 15, 2020, assuming no credit rating change for the Company, and $300 million in notional amount of interest rate swap agreements which effectively fix the interest rate on the 2013 unsecured term loan at 2.78% through its maturity date of January 31, 2019, assuming no credit rating change for the Company. The 2011 unsecured term loan and the 2013 unsecured term loan, therefore, are reflected as fixed rate debt.
(4)
The initial maturity date of the $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility is June 18, 2019; however, there are two, six-month extension options available under the facility providing for a final extended maturity date of June 18, 2020. For the purposes of this schedule, we reflect the maturity date of the facility as the final extended maturity date of June 2020.

Defined as EBITDA for the trailing four quarters (including the Company's share of EBITDA from unconsolidated interests), less one-time or non-recurring gains or losses, less a $0.15 per square foot capital reserve, and excluding the impact of straight line rent leveling adjustments and amortization of intangibles divided by the Company's share of fixed charges, as more particularly described in the credit agreements. This definition of fixed charge coverage ratio as prescribed by our credit agreements is different from the fixed charge coverage ratio definition employed elsewhere within this report.
(3)
Defined as net operating income for the trailing four quarters for unencumbered assets (including the Company's share of net operating income from partially-owned entities and subsidiaries that are deemed to be unencumbered) less a $0.15 per square foot capital reserve divided by the Company's share of interest expense associated with unsecured financings only, as more particularly described in the credit agreements.
(4)
Bond covenant compliance calculations relate to specific calculations prescribed in the relevant debt agreements. Please refer to the Indenture dated May 9, 2013, and the Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture dated March 6, 2014, for detailed information about the calculations.
(5)
For the purposes of this calculation, we use the average daily balance of debt outstanding during the period, less cash and cash equivalents and escrow deposits and restricted cash as of the end of the period.
(6)
Fixed charge coverage ratio is calculated as Core EBITDA divided by the sum of interest expense, principal amortization, capitalized interest and preferred dividends. The Company had no preferred dividends during the periods ended March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The Company had capitalized interest of $78,939 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and $4,555,407 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016. The Company had principal amortization of $223,326 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and $863,022 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016.
(7)
Interest coverage ratio is calculated as Core EBITDA divided by the sum of interest expense and capitalized interest. The Company had capitalized interest of $78,939 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and $4,555,407 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016.

(1)
This schedule presents all tenants contributing 1.0% or more to Annualized Lease Revenue.
(2)
Credit rating may reflect the credit rating of the parent or a guarantor. When available, both the Standard & Poor's credit rating and the Moody's credit rating are provided. The absence of a credit rating for a tenant is no indication of the creditworthiness of the tenant; in most cases, the lack of a credit rating reflects that the tenant has not sought such a rating.
(3)
Unless otherwise indicated, Lease Expiration represents the expiration year of the majority of the square footage leased by the tenant.
(4)
There are several leases with several different agencies of the U.S. Government with expiration years ranging from 2017 to 2031.

Credit rating may reflect the credit rating of the parent or a guarantor. Where differences exist between the Standard & Poor's credit rating for a tenant and the Moody's credit rating for a tenant, the higher credit rating is selected for this analysis.
(2)
The classification of a tenant as "not rated" is no indication of the creditworthiness of the tenant; in most cases, the lack of a credit rating reflects that the tenant has not sought such a rating. Included in this category are such tenants as Independence Blue Cross, Piper Jaffray, Brother International, and RaceTrac Petroleum.

(1)
The population analyzed consists of consolidated office leases executed during the period with lease terms of greater than one year. Leases associated with storage spaces, management offices, and unconsolidated joint venture assets are excluded from this analysis.
(2)
For the purposes of this analysis, the last twelve months of cash rents of the previous leases are compared to the first twelve months of cash rents of the new leases in order to calculate the percentage change.
(3)
For the purposes of this analysis, the accrual basis rents of the previous leases are compared to the accrual basis rents of the new leases in order to calculate the percentage change. For newly signed leases which have variations in accrual basis rents, whether because of known future expansions, contractions, lease expense recovery structure changes, or other similar reasons, the weighted average of such varying accrual basis rents is used for the purposes of this analysis.
(4)
For leases under which a tenant may use, at its discretion, a portion of its tenant improvement allowance for expenses other than those related to improvements to its space, an assumption is made that the tenant elects to use any such portion of its tenant improvement allowance for improvements to its space prior to the commencement of its lease, unless the Company is notified otherwise by the tenant. This assumption is made based upon historical usage patterns of tenant improvement allowances by the Company's tenants.
(5)
Represents leases signed at our consolidated office assets that do not qualify for inclusion in the analysis primarily because the spaces for which the new leases were signed had been vacant for greater than one year.

Annualized rental income associated with each newly executed lease for currently occupied space is incorporated herein only at the expiration date for the current lease. Annualized rental income associated with each such new lease is removed from the expiry year of the current lease and added to the expiry year of the new lease. These adjustments effectively incorporate known roll ups and roll downs into the expiration schedule.
(2)
Includes leases with an expiration date of March 31, 2017, comprised of 132,000 square feet and Annualized Lease Revenue of $1.4 million (inclusive of 66,000 square feet of give-back space associated with a large, long-term lease renewal for which the tenant is no longer responsible for base rental charges).
(3)

Includes leases with an expiration date of March 31, 2017, comprised of 132,000 square feet and expiring lease revenue of $1.3 million (inclusive of 66,000 square feet of give-back space associated with a large, long-term lease renewal for which the tenant was not responsible for base rental charges as of March 31, 2017; see note 3 below). No such adjustments are made to other periods presented.
(2)
Expiring Lease Revenue is calculated as expiring square footage multiplied by the gross rent per square foot of the tenant currently leasing the space.

As part of Comdata's recent lease renewal at 5301 Maryland Way in Brentwood, TN, the tenant was granted the right to use the 66,000 square foot give-back space beyond the original expiration date of May 31, 2016 with no base rental charges. The tenant's right to use the 66,000 square feet of give-back space was originally scheduled to expire on March 31, 2017 (see note 1 above); however, it is anticipated that the tenant will continue to occupy that space through the third quarter of 2017, during which time the tenant will be responsible for holdover rent at a per square foot rate equivalent to what it is paying to lease the remainder of the building.
(4)
Total expiring lease revenue in any given year will not tie to the expiring Annualized Lease Revenue presented on the Lease Expiration Schedule on the previous page as the Lease Expiration Schedule accounts for the revenue effects of newly signed leases. Reflected herein are expiring revenues based on in-place rental rates.

Includes leases with an expiration date of March 31, 2017, comprised of 132,000 square feet and expiring lease revenue of $1.3 million (inclusive of 66,000 square feet of give-back space associated with a large, long-term lease renewal for which the tenant was not responsible for base rental charges as of March 31, 2017; see note 3 below). No such adjustments are made to other periods presented.
(2)
Expiring Lease Revenue is calculated as expiring square footage multiplied by the gross rent per square foot of the tenant currently leasing the space.
(3)
As part of Comdata's recent lease renewal at 5301 Maryland Way in Brentwood, TN, the tenant was granted the right to use the 66,000 square foot give-back space beyond the original expiration date of May 31, 2016 with no base rental charges. The tenant's right to use the 66,000 square feet of give-back space was originally scheduled to expire on March 31, 2017 (see note 1 above); however, it is anticipated that the tenant will continue to occupy that space through the third quarter of 2017, during which time the tenant will be responsible for holdover rent at a per square foot rate equivalent to what it is paying to lease the remainder of the building.

NOTE:
This information is presented for our consolidated office assets only and excludes activity associated with storage and licensed spaces.
(1)
For leases under which a tenant may use, at its discretion, a portion of its tenant improvement allowance for expenses other than those related to improvements to its space, an assumption is made that the tenant elects to use any such portion of its tenant improvement allowance for improvements to its space prior to the commencement of its lease, unless the Company is notified otherwise by the tenant. This assumption is made based upon historical usage patterns of tenant improvement allowances by the Company's tenants.
(2)
The average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for renewal leases completed during 2015 was higher than our historical performance on this measure primarily as a result of four large lease renewals, two of which were completed in the Washington, D.C. market, that involved higher capital commitments. If the costs associated with those renewals were to be removed from the average committed capital cost calculation, the average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for renewal leases completed during 2015 would be $3.33.
(3)
During 2014, we completed one large, 15-year lease renewal and expansion with a significant capital commitment with Jones Lang LaSalle at Aon Center in Chicago, IL. If the costs associated with this lease were to be removed from the average committed capital cost calculation, the average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for renewal leases and total leases completed during 2014 would be $2.12 and $4.47, respectively.
(4)
During 2015, we completed seven new leases in Washington, D.C., and Chicago, IL, comprising 680,035 square feet with above-average capital commitments. If the costs associated with those new leases were to be removed from the average committed capital cost calculation, the average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for new leases and total leases completed during 2015 would be $5.42 and $4.88, respectively.

Supplemental Definitions
Included below are definitions of various terms used throughout this supplemental report, including definitions of certain non-GAAP financial measures and the reasons why the Company’s management believes these measures provide useful information to investors about the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Reconciliations of any non-GAAP financial measures defined below are included beginning on page 41.

 
Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO"): The Company calculates AFFO by starting with Core FFO and adjusting for non-incremental capital expenditures and acquisition-related costs and then adding back non-cash items including: non-real estate depreciation, straight-lined rents and fair value lease adjustments, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that AFFO is helpful to investors as a meaningful supplemental comparative performance measure of our ability to make incremental capital investments. Other REITs may not define AFFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of AFFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
 
Annualized Lease Revenue ("ALR"): ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) rental payments (defined as base rent plus operating expense reimbursements, if payable by the tenant on a monthly basis under the terms of a lease that has been executed, but excluding a) rental abatements and b) rental payments related to executed but not commenced leases for space that was covered by an existing lease), by (ii) 12. In instances in which contractual rents or operating expense reimbursements are collected on an annual, semi-annual, or quarterly basis, such amounts are multiplied by a factor of 1, 2, or 4, respectively, to calculate the annualized figure. For leases that have been executed but not commenced relating to un-leased space, ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) the monthly base rental payment (excluding abatements) plus any operating expense reimbursements for the initial month of the lease term, by (ii) 12. Unless stated otherwise, this measure excludes revenues associated with our unconsolidated joint venture properties and development / re-development properties, if any.
 
Core EBITDA: The Company calculates Core EBITDA as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and incrementally removing any impairment losses, gains or losses from sales of property and other significant infrequent items that create volatility within our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our core ongoing business. Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core EBITDA is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the performance of the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization), as well as items that are not part of normal day-to-day operations of the Company’s business. Other REITs may not define Core EBITDA in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core EBITDA may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
 
Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"): The Company calculates Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjusting for gains or losses on the extinguishment of swaps and/or debt, acquisition-related expenses and any significant non-recurring items. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to the Company’s core business operations. As a result, the Company believes that Core FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential. Other REITs may not define Core FFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core FFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
 
EBITDA: EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
 
Funds From Operations ("FFO"): The Company calculates FFO in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property and impairment losses, adding back depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. These adjustments can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of depreciation, amortization and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs, which implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. The Company also believes that FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of FFO may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.
 
Gross Assets: Gross Assets is defined as total assets with the add-back of accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization related to real estate assets.
 
Gross Real Estate Assets: Gross Real Estate Assets is defined as total real estate assets with the add-back of accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization related to real estate assets.
 
Incremental Capital Expenditures: Incremental Capital Expenditures are defined as capital expenditures of a non-recurring nature that incrementally enhance the underlying assets' income generating capacity. Tenant improvements, leasing commissions, building capital and deferred lease incentives ("Leasing Costs") incurred to lease space that was vacant at acquisition, Leasing Costs for spaces vacant for greater than one year, Leasing Costs for spaces at newly acquired properties for which in-place leases expire shortly after acquisition, improvements associated with the expansion of a building and renovations that change the underlying classification of a building are included in this measure.
 
NOI from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures: NOI from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures is defined as Property NOI attributable to our interests in properties owned through unconsolidated partnerships. We present this measure on an accrual basis and a cash basis, which eliminates the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue. NOI from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures is a non-GAAP measure and therefore may not be comparable to similarly defined data provided by other REITs.
 
Non-Incremental Capital Expenditures: Non-Incremental Capital Expenditures are defined as capital expenditures of a recurring nature related to tenant improvements and leasing commissions that do not incrementally enhance the underlying assets' income generating capacity. We exclude first generation tenant improvements and leasing commissions from this measure, in addition to other capital expenditures that qualify as Incremental Capital Expenditures, as defined above.
 
Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI"): The Company calculates Property NOI by starting with Core EBITDA and adjusting for general and administrative expense, income associated with property management performed by Piedmont for other organizations and other income or expense items for the Company, such as interest income from loan investments or costs from the pursuit of non-consummated transactions. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Property NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of income generated by its properties alone without the administrative overhead of the Company. Other REITs may not define Property NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Property NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
 
Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI"): The Company calculates Same Store NOI as Property NOI attributable to the properties for which the following criteria were met during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods: i) they were owned, ii) they were not under development / redevelopment, and iii) none of the operating expenses for which were capitalized. Same Store NOI also excludes amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint venture and land assets. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Same Store NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Same Store NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of the income generated from the same group of properties from one period to the next. Other REITs may not define Same Store NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Same Store NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
 
Same Store Properties: Same Store Properties is defined as those properties for which the following criteria were met during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods: i) they were owned, ii) they were not under development / redevelopment, and iii) none of the operating expenses for which were capitalized. Same Store Properties excludes unconsolidated joint venture and land assets.

Supplemental Operating & Financial Data
Risks, Uncertainties and Limitations


Certain statements contained in this supplemental package constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We intend for all such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, as applicable. Such information is subject to certain risks and uncertainties, as well as known and unknown risks, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated. Therefore, such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of our performance in future periods. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” "estimate," “believe,” “continue” or similar words or phrases that are predictions of future events or trends and which do not relate solely to historical matters. Examples of such statements in this supplemental package include our estimated Core FFO and Core FFO per diluted share for calendar year 2017 and certain expected future financing requirements and expenditures.
The following are some of the factors that could cause our actual results and expectations to differ materially from those described in our forward-looking statements: economic, regulatory and / or socio-economic changes (including accounting standards) that impact the real estate market generally or that could affect the patterns of use of commercial office space; the success of our real estate strategies and investment objectives, including our ability to identify and consummate suitable acquisitions and divestitures; lease terminations or lease defaults, particularly by one of our large lead tenants; the impact of competition on our efforts to renew existing leases or re-let space on terms similar to existing leases; changes in the economies and other conditions affecting the office sector in general and the specific markets in which we operate, particularly in Washington, D.C., the New York metropolitan area, and Chicago where we have high concentrations of office properties; the illiquidity of real estate investments, including the resulting impediment on our ability to quickly respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties; the risks and uncertainties associated with the acquisition of properties, many of which risks and uncertainties may not be known at the time of acquisition; development and construction delays and resultant increased costs and risks; our real estate development strategies may not be successful; future acts of terrorism in any of the major metropolitan areas in which we own properties or future cybersecurity attacks against us or any of our tenants; additional risks and costs associated with directly managing properties occupied by government tenants; the effect on us of adverse market and economic conditions, including any resulting impairment charges on both our long-lived assets or goodwill; availability of financing and our lending banks' ability to honor existing line of credit commitments; costs of complying with governmental laws and regulations; the effect of future offerings of debt or equity securities or changes in market interest rates on the value of our common stock; uncertainties associated with environmental and other regulatory matters; potential changes in political environment and reduction in federal and/or state funding of our governmental tenants; any change in the financial condition of any of our large lead tenants; the effect of any litigation to which we are, or may become, subject; changes in tax laws impacting REITs and real estate in general, as well as our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986; the results of our preparation of amendments to our previously filed financial statements and public reports, including any audit or review of such amendments by our auditors; our confirmation of the time periods to be covered by such amendments; the implementation of any necessary changes to our internal controls and procedures in a timely and cost efficient manner; the future effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures; and other factors detailed in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this supplemental report. We cannot guarantee the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements contained in this supplemental report, and we do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
