Piedmont Office Realty Trust Reports First Quarter 2020 Results
ATLANTA, April 29, 2020 --Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. ("Piedmont" or the "Company") (NYSE:PDM), an owner of Class A office properties located primarily in select sub-markets within seven major Eastern U.S. office markets, today announced its results for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

Highlights for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2020:

Reported net income applicable to common stockholders of $8.7 million , or $0.07 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, as compared with $50.2 million (which included a $37.9 million gain on sale of real estate asset), or $0.40 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2019;
Achieved Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO") of $0.47 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 as compared to $0.45 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019;
Completed approximately 417,000 square feet of leasing, including approximately 120,000 square feet of new tenant leasing;
Reported an approximately 5.0% and 15.4% roll up in cash and accrual rents, respectively, on leases executed during the quarter for space vacant one year or less;
Reported a 2.2% and 4.2% increase in the current quarter's Same Store NOI-Cash Basis and Same Store NOI-Accrual Basis, respectively, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2019;
Completed the acquisition of the Dallas Galleria Office Towers, a 1.4 million square foot project plus a 1.9-acre developable land parcel located in Dallas, TX, for approximately $396 million;
Entered into a binding contract to sell 1901 Market Street in Philadelphia, PA for $360 million; and,
Entered into a $300 million unsecured term loan and used the proceeds to pay down its $500 million line of credit.

Commenting on the quarter's results, Brent Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "While the first quarter of 2020 was undoubtedly a historic one in many ways, and we are not immune to the macro economic forces that we are all currently dealing with related to the COVID-19 pandemic, it is during times like these that our business strategy, which focuses on long-term leases to investment-grade tenants, demonstrates its resilience, quality, and value. We are thankful to report that the consequences of the coronavirus had minimal financial impact on our first quarter operations. Our leasing results were robust, financial results were in line with our expectations, and we completed the largest acquisition in Piedmont's history, as well as placing another large asset under contract to sell. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, in light of today's economic landscape, we entered into a new $300 million unsecured term loan and used the proceeds to pay down our $500 million line of credit, so our balance sheet is in a very strong and liquid position. At this time, the well being of our tenants, employees and contractors continues to be our top priority. All of our buildings remain open and fully operational, allowing those



tenants with essential business to continue to serve their communities, and we are appreciative of those individuals who remain steadfast in keeping our communities safe, healthy and supplied. "

Results for the Quarter ended March 31, 2020

Piedmont recognized net income applicable to common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2020 of $8.7 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, as compared with $50.2 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The prior quarter included a $37.9 million gain on sale of real estate assets primarily associated with the sale of One Independence Square in Washington, D.C.

Funds From Operations ("FFO") and Core FFO, which remove the impact of the gain on sale mentioned above, as well as depreciation and amortization, were both $0.47 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared with $0.45 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2019, reflecting rental rate growth throughout the portfolio over the past twelve months, the commencement of certain large leases, as well as net acquisition and disposition activity since January 1, 2019.

Total revenues and property operating costs were $137.2 million and $53.2 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $132.9 million and $51.8 million, respectively, for the first quarter of 2019, with both line items reflecting the commencement of new leases, the expiration of abatements, and net transactional activity during the twelve months ended March 31, 2020. General and administrative expense was $8.6 million for the first quarter of 2020 as compared to $9.4 million for the same period in 2019, with the decrease primarily attributable to decreased compensation expense as a result of the senior management transition that took place on June 30, 2019.

Leasing Update

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, Piedmont completed approximately 417,000 square feet of leasing across its portfolio including approximately 120,000 square feet of new tenant leasing. The first quarter's executed leases for recently occupied space reflected a 5.0% roll up in cash rents and 15.4% increase in accrual rents. Highlights for the quarter include the following:

In Boston: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. renewed to 2028 approximately 107,000 square feet at 90 Central;
In Orlando : Greenberg Traurig. P.A. renewed to 2031 approximately 37,000 square feet at CNL Center I and at 200 South Orange Avenue, Jones Lang LaSalle Americas, Inc. signed a renewal and expansion to 2025 totaling approximately 20,000 square feet;
In Washington : Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International signed a new lease to 2030 for approximately 15,000 square feet at 3100 Clarendon Boulevard and Cavan Solutions, Inc. signed a new lease to 2028 for approximately 10,000 square feet at 400 Virgina Avenue;
In Dallas: Starr Indemnity and Liability Co. signed a renewal and expansion totaling approximately 14,000 square feet through 2029 at One Lincoln Park;
In Minneapolis : McGrann Shea Carnival Straughn and Lamb renewed approximately 13,000 square feet to 2025 at US Bancorp Center; and
In Chicago: Kiewit Infrastructure Company signed a new lease to 2031 for approximately 13,000 square feet at Two Pierce Place.




As of March 31, 2020, the Company's reported leased percentage and weighted average remaining lease term were approximately 90% and 6.8 years, respectively, with approximately 1.1 million square feet of executed leases for vacant space yet to commence or under rental abatement. The Company is in active discussions with the City of New York for the renewal of substantially all of its 313,000 square foot lease at 60 Broad Street in New York. Other lease expirations set for the remainder of the year total approximately 4% of the Company’s Annualized Lease Revenue.

Same Store NOI ("SSNOI") increased 2.2% and 4.2% on a cash and accrual basis, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in cash basis SSNOI was attributable to the expiration of lease abatements while the increase in accrual basis SSNOI was related to the commencement of new leases with higher straight-line rents, offset by down times between leases and lower overall occupancy levels. Details outlining Piedmont's largest upcoming lease commencements and expirations, the status of certain major leasing activity and a schedule of the largest lease abatements can be found in the Company's quarterly supplemental information package available at www.piedmontreit.com.

Transactional and Financing Update

As previously announced, during the three months ended March 31, 2020, Piedmont acquired for $396.2 million, or $273 per square foot, the “Galleria Office Towers,” three Class-A office towers totaling approximately 1.4 million square feet with associated parking garages, and a 1.9-acre land parcel located in the Lower Tollway submarket of Dallas, TX. The acquisition of the Galleria Office Towers increased the Company’s Dallas footprint to 3.6 million square feet, making it Piedmont’s largest market in terms of annualized lease revenue and resulting in approximately 50% of Piedmont's portfolio being located in the Sun Belt region of the United States.

The Galleria is a 3.7 million square foot master-planned, mixed-use development with unmatched connectivity to the DFW Metroplex. The Galleria Office Towers are seamlessly integrated through air-conditioned sky bridges into a mixed-use amenity base, including the Galleria Dallas retail destination, encompassing over 30 dining options and 1.5 million square feet of shopping, along with the 448-room Westin Galleria Hotel, creating a vibrant and highly amenitized destination. The office towers are each 24 to 26 stories, range in size between 434,000 and 531,000 square feet, and are 90-100% leased to a roster of high-quality, diverse tenants including Amazon, Ryan LLC, Ansira Partners, Kimley-Horn, and Hospital Corp. of America, among many others.

Also during the three months ended March 31, 2020, Piedmont entered into a binding contract to sell its approximately 801,000 square foot, 45-story, 100%-leased 1901 Market Street building in Philadelphia, PA for approximately $360 million. The sale is currently expected to close during the summer of 2020.

Finally, during the three months ended March 31, 2020, Piedmont entered into a $150 million term loan facility and amended it to increase the principal amount to $300 million and extend the term to up to two years, for a maximum extended maturity date of March 11, 2022 (the "$300 Million Unsecured 2020 Term Loan"). Piedmont drew the full $300 million available under the amended facility and used the proceeds to repay outstanding draws on its $500 Million Unsecured 2018 Line of Credit. The amounts outstanding under the $300 Million Unsecured 2020 Term Loan bear interest at LIBOR plus 140 basis points based on Piedmont's current credit rating.

Second Quarter 2020 Dividend Declaration




On April 29, 2020, the board of directors of Piedmont declared a dividend for the second quarter of 2020 in the amount of $0.21 per share on its common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 29, 2020, payable on June 19, 2020.

Impact of COVID-19 on Guidance for 2020

Since the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and the longer-term consequences on the economy and our tenants are unknown at this time, the Company is withdrawing its guidance for 2020. That said, Piedmont has a strong, diversified tenant base, a majority of which is investment grade quality. Additionally, the Company has a prudent balance sheet with excellent liquidity, including approximately $350 million available on its line of credit at March 31, 2020 and no debt maturities until late 2021. Despite the widespread impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy, the Company currently anticipates that its overall leased percentage and expected 2020 financial performance will not be severely impacted by the pandemic. While it is withdrawing its guidance, the Company is providing additional information regarding performance in April and its current expectations for how the pandemic could impact performance during the rest of the quarter and the rest of the year:


New tenant leasing activity during April has slowed and the Company believes this trend will continue throughout the quarter, likely pushing all “new tenant” leasing goals out at least a quarter, which will modestly lower net operating income (“NOI”) for 2020 by approximately $1.5 million, and lower our originally anticipated year end leased percentage.
Much of Piedmont’s transient parking income for the second quarter will not occur and will reduce NOI by approximately $1 million.
With respect to retail tenant income, which is about 1% of the Company’s total 2020 revenues, retail NOI is estimated to decline by approximately $1.5 million.
To date, approximately 96% of April’s rents have been collected and only a limited number of the remaining tenants that have yet to pay April’s rents are requesting deferral of second quarter rents.
As of this time, the Company has amended lease terms for tenants which will defer approximately $1 million of rents per month for an average of three months, or in total about one-half of a percent of annualized revenues.
While the Company is not aware of other tenant situations that would indicate material reductions in collections in future month, it does not believe the impact of the pandemic on subsequent months’ rent collections can be reasonably estimated at this time.
These identified impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on net operating income during 2020 equate to approximately $0.04 to $0.05 per share of Core FFO reduction. These expectations are conditional upon an important hypothesis that the duration of the effects of the pandemic are largely confined to the second quarter of the current calendar year.

The Company will reevaluate guidance once current “shelter-in-place” orders that are in effect for all of its operating markets are lifted and the longer-term consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and our tenants can more thoroughly be considered.

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, 2020 contain certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, Same Store NOI (cash and accrual basis), Property NOI (cash and accrual basis), EBITDAre, 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.

Certain statements contained in this press release 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"). The Company intends 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 the Company`s 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," "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 press release include: whether the sale of 1901 Market Street in Philadelphia, PA will close; whether the Company's overall leased percentage and expected 2020 financial performance will be severely impacted by the pandemic; whether new tenant leasing activity will continue to slow throughout the quarter thereby lowering net operating income (“NOI”) for 2020 by approximately $1.5 million, and lowering the Company's originally anticipated year end leased percentage; whether much of the Company’s transient parking income for the second quarter will not occur and will reduce NOI by approximately $1 million; whether the Company's retail tenant NOI will decline by approximately $1.5 million; and whether the identified impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on net operating income during 2020 will equate to an approximately $0.04 to $0.05 per share of Core FFO reduction.

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: actual or threatened public health epidemics or outbreaks, such as the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic that the world is currently experiencing, and governmental and private measures taken to combat such health crises, which may affect our personnel, tenants, and the costs of operating our assets; economic, regulatory, socioeconomic changes, and/or technology 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 specifically the seven markets in which we primarily operate where we have high concentrations of our annualized lease revenue; lease terminations, lease defaults, or changes in the financial condition of our tenants, particularly by one of our large lead tenants; adverse market and economic conditions, including any resulting impairment charges on both our long-lived assets or goodwill resulting therefrom; 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 regulatory restrictions to which REITs are subject and 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 and disposition of properties, many of which risks and uncertainties may not be known at the time of acquisition or disposition; development and construction delays and resultant increased costs and risks; our real estate development strategies may not be successful; future acts of terrorism or armed hostilities 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, including an increased risk of default by government tenants during periods in which state or federal governments are shut down or on furlough; significant price and volume fluctuations in the public markets, including on the exchange which we listed our common stock; changes in the method pursuant to which the LIBOR rates are determined and the potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021; 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; changes in the financial condition of our tenants directly or indirectly resulting from geopolitical developments that could negatively affect international trade, including the uncertainty surrounding the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union, the termination or threatened termination of existing international trade agreements, or the implementation



of tariffs or retaliatory tariffs on imported or exported goods; the effect of any litigation to which we are, or may become, subject; additional risks and costs associated with owning properties occupied by co-working tenants, including risks of default during start-up and during economic downturns; 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 or otherwise adversely affect our stockholders; 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, 2019 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release.

*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 (that are not capitalized) 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 (that are not capitalized) 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.

EBITDAre: The Company calculates EBITDAre in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines EBITDAre as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) adjusted for gains or losses from sales of property, impairment losses, depreciation on real estate assets, amortization on real estate assets, interest expense and taxes, along with the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Some of the adjustments mentioned can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. EBITDAre 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 EBITDAre is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization) and capitalization and capital structure expenses (such as interest expense and taxes). The Company also believes that EBITDAre can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of EBITDAre may not be comparable to that of such 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 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 46 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, acquisitions, dispositions, etc. contained in this quarterly supplemental information report may differ from actual results.
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.
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, EBITDAre and Core EBITDA. Definitions and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP metrics are included beginning on page 40 . 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.
In certain presentations herein, the Company has provided disaggregated financial and operational data (for example, some pieces of information are displayed by geography, industry, or lease expiration year) for informational purposes for readers; however, regardless of the various presentation approaches taken herein, we continue to evaluate and utilize our consolidated financial results in making operating decisions, allocating resources, and assessing our performance.

(1) As of March 31, 2020, our consolidated office portfolio consisted of 58 properties. During the first quarter of 2020, we acquired One Galleria Tower, Two Galleria Tower and Three Galleria Tower, three office buildings comprised of 1,435,000 square feet in total, along with a 1.9 acre developable land parcel, located in Dallas, TX.
(2)
This measure is presented for our consolidated office properties and the metric for December 31, 2019, has been restated to include one redevelopment property that was placed back into service on January 1, 2020. The redevelopment property is Two Pierce Place, a 484,000 square foot office building located in Itasca, IL.
(3) The metric presents certain financial information about the Company as of March 31, 2020 on a pro forma basis giving effect to the completion of the sale of 1901 Market Street in Philadelphia, PA, and the use of the sale proceeds net of customary closing costs to repay the related $160 million mortgage as well as outstanding indebtedness under the Company’s revolving line of credit. The average net debt to Core EBITDA pro forma calculation assumes a full quarter's loss of EBITDA attributable to 1901 Market Street and a full quarter's contribution of EBITDA from each of One Galleria Tower, Two Galleria Tower and Three Galleria Tower, all located in Dallas, TX, which were acquired in February 2020. The information has been presented to show the anticipated impact of this asset sale transaction on certain of the Company’s statistical measures; however, the information is not intended to present the Company’s operating results on a pro forma basis giving effect to the actions listed above and does not contain all of the information required in connection with pro forma financial statements prepared pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc.
COVID-19 Update


During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak a pandemic. All of the markets in which Piedmont's buildings are located remain subject to some form of quarantine or shelter-in-place restrictions. Presented below are key business updates and information for our constituents as relates to Piedmont's capitalization, the impact of COVID-19 on our business, and our response to issues related to the pandemic.


Corporate Update

Our Focus

Our highest priority has been, and always will be, protecting the well-being of our tenants, contractors and employees. We are committed to promoting a safe and healthy environment.

Ongoing Tenant Construction

We have only two redevelopment projects (less than $40 million in total) and one material tenant improvement obligation which we anticipate will experience some delays but will not significantly impact completion.
Portfolio Status

Each of our assets is open for business and serving the needs of our tenants. We are following all government shelter-in-place guidelines and strictly adhering to all recommended Centers for Disease Control health and wellness protocols.
Liquidity Position

We have ample liquidity and capital available to meet all corporate financial obligations, including the servicing of our debt, as well as meet all debt covenants with significant positive margins. Piedmont maintains a strong balance sheet position, with access to our largely unused $500 million line of credit.
Rental Revenues

With a majority of our tenants being investment grade quality, we received 96% of our April rental billings to date. We have collected 100% of April rent from our top 20 tenants. Retail and co-working tenants total approximately 3% of our 2020 revenues. We have low lease expirations in 2020 totaling approximately 4.2% (excluding the New York City lease expiration).
Strong Balance Sheet

We have no planned or pending acquisitions and no ground-up development projects underway. On March 31, 2020, we entered into a binding contract, including a significant non-refundable deposit, to dispose of our only asset in Philadelphia for $360 million. Net proceeds will be directed to further strengthen our capital position through the reduction of debt and leave only one encumbered property within our portfolio. We are rated BBB by Standard & Poor’s and Baa2 by Moody’s.

Rental Assistance

We are partnering with certain tenants whose businesses have been impacted by COVID-19 and who have requested some form of rent deferral. We are reviewing each request carefully and have accommodated a limited number of rent deferrals, typically for up to three months, to be repaid later this year or into 2021.
Debt Profile

We have no debt maturities until late 2021. We have 56 unencumbered properties, representing approximately 95% of our Annualized Lease Revenue; after the sale of 1901 Market Street in Philadelphia, PA, our unencumbered properties will represent approximately 99% of our Annualized Lease Revenue.

Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc.
Financial Highlights
As of March 31, 2020

Financial Results (1)

Net income attributable to Piedmont for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $8.7 million, or $0.07 per share (diluted), compared to $50.2 million, or $0.40 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2019. The decrease in net income attributable to Piedmont for the three months ended March 31, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019 was principally due to gains on the sale of real estate assets recorded during the first quarter of 2019, along with higher amortization and depreciation expense in 2020 when compared to 2019 attributable to over $720 million of acquisitions completed since the beginning of 2019.

Funds from operations (FFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $59.9 million, or $0.47 per share (diluted), compared to $56.3 million, or $0.45 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2019. The increase in FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019 was principally the result of a growth in revenue attributable to accrual basis rental rate increases associated with recent leasing activity across the portfolio as well as accretive capital recycling activities over the prior year.

Core funds from operations (Core FFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $59.9 million, or $0.47 per share (diluted), compared to $56.3 million, or $0.45 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2019. The increase in Core FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019 was primarily attributable to the same items described above for changes in FFO.

Adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $18.6 million, compared to $51.8 million for the same quarter in 2019. The decrease in AFFO for the three months ended March 31, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019 was primarily due to a larger amount of non-incremental capital expenditures in 2020 related to the large amount of recently executed new and renewal leases in our portfolio, including the 20-year lease renewal with the State of New York at 60 Broad Street in New York, NY, for which leasing commissions were paid during the quarter.

Update Related to COVID-19

During the first quarter of 2020, our operations continued without significant impact from COVID-19. While restrictive measures were increasing as of the end of the first quarter, the COVID-19 pandemic had a limited impact on the Company’s first quarter results. We do, however, expect the coronavirus outbreak to have an impact on the Company’s operations and financial results during the second quarter and potentially beyond.

As it has for many companies around the world, the COVID-19 pandemic caused changes in Piedmont’s typical work practices. Our employees are embracing social distancing and most are working from their homes. Essential employees and contractors continue to report to work enabling all our properties to remain open and fully operational for our tenants, many of whom also have the need for their essential employees to continue to work in our buildings.

We feel fortunate to have duration and durability in the cash flow generated by our tenant base. The majority of our tenants are of investment grade quality, and our in place leases have a weighted average lease term remaining of nearly 7 years. Only approximately 1% of our revenues are related to retail tenants and approximately 2% of our 2020 budgeted revenues are associated with the co-working sector, both of which have been particularly hard hit by the economic effects of the pandemic and the requests to ‘shelter-in-place’ by most large metropolitan area and state governments. Additionally, only a limited amount of our annual revenues comes from parking. As of the time of release of this report, our rental receipts have largely continued to be collected. To date, we have been able to accommodate a limited number of tenants that have requested deferrals of their rents with repayments scheduled for later this year without penalty, or payback in 2021 with interest.

As relates to Piedmont’s liquidity and capitalization, we believe we have sufficient liquidity and capital capacity to withstand the effects of the economic slowdown associated with COVID-19. The Company remains able to meet all of its financial obligations, including the servicing of its debt, as well as to meet all of its debt covenants, each with a significant buffer to the relevant threshold. Piedmont is in a strong balance sheet position, with access to our largely unused $500 million line of credit. Additionally, we have entered into a binding contract to sell our only asset in Philadelphia, 1901 Market Street, for $360 million, with the proceeds from the sale expected to be used to pay off the balance on our line of credit and a $160 million mortgage, which will leave the Company with only one approximately $28 million mortgage secured by one property and our remaining 56 properties unencumbered.

While we are seeing signs of the virus outbreak slowing and the infection curve flattening, the short-term financial impacts caused by the pandemic on 2020 results are yet to be fully realized and will depend upon how long the economic disruption associated with the pandemic lasts. Leasing activity has slowed and will likely delay some of the expected growth in the portfolio; some additional tenants, most likely small businesses, are expected to ask for some type of rent deferrals; and a few tenant improvements and redevelopment projects will be delayed. Because the ultimate impact to financial performance will depend upon how long the economic disruption associated with the pandemic lasts, we are withdrawing our financial guidance and will provide revised guidance once the depth and duration of the disruption becomes more clear.

Operations and Leasing

As of March 31, 2020, Piedmont had 58 in-service office properties located primarily in seven major office markets in the eastern portion of the United States. On a square footage leased basis, our total in-service office portfolio was 89.6% leased as of March 31, 2020, as compared to 89.7% at December 31, 2019 (restated to include one out-of-service asset, Two Pierce Place in Itasca, IL, which was placed back into service on January 1, 2020). Please refer to page 28 for additional leased percentage information.

The weighted average remaining lease term of our in-service portfolio was 6.8 years (1) as of March 31, 2020 as compared to 7.0 years at December 31, 2019. Our weighted average adjusted Annualized Lease Revenue (2) per square foot for our in-service portfolio was $35.88 as of March 31, 2020.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company completed approximately 417,000 square feet of leasing activity. Of the total leasing activity completed during the quarter, we signed new tenant leases for approximately 120,000 square feet. The average committed capital for tenant improvements and leasing commissions per square foot per year of lease term for all leasing activity completed during the three months ended March 31, 2020 (net of commitment expirations during the period) was $5.58 (see page 34).

Of the 417,000 square feet of leases executed during the three months ended March 31, 2020, eight leases were greater than 10,000 square feet at our consolidated office properties. Information on those leases is set forth below.

Future Lease Commencements and Abatements

As of March 31, 2020, our overall leased percentage was 89.6% and our economic leased percentage was 84.0%. 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 395,381 square feet of leases as of March 31, 2020, or 2.2% of the portfolio); and
2) leases which have commenced but are within rental abatement periods (amounting to 684,132 square feet of leases as of March 31, 2020, or a 3.4% impact to leased percentage on an economic basis).

The gap between reported leased percentage and economic leased percentage will fluctuate over time as (1) new leases are signed for vacant spaces, (2) abatements associated with existing or newly executed leases commence and expire, and/or (3) properties are bought and sold. See below for more detail on existing large leases with abatements. The gap this quarter between reported leased percentage and economic leased percentage is heavily influenced by the Transocean lease for 301,000 square feet of space under abatement at Enclave Place in Houston, TX, attributable for 1.7% of the 5.6% gap.

Piedmont has leases with many large corporate office space users. The average size of lease in the Company's portfolio is approximately 20,000 square feet. Due to the large size and length of term of new leases, Piedmont typically signs leases several months in advance of their anticipated lease commencement dates. Presented below is a schedule of uncommenced leases greater than 50,000 square feet and their anticipated commencement dates. Lease renewals are excluded from this schedule.

New leases frequently provide rental abatement concessions to tenants and these abatements typically occur at the beginning of the leases. The currently reported cash net operating income and AFFO understate the Company's long-term cash generation ability from existing signed leases due to several leases being in abatement periods. Presented below are two schedules related to abatements. The first is a schedule of leases with abatements of 50,000 square feet or greater that expired during the first quarter of 2020, and the second 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.

(1)   In the construction permitting process, the tenant has been required by the local government to make modifications to its space plans resulting in a delay of the receipt of construction permits. The delay in the construction process resulted in a revised estimated commencement date for the lease.
(2)   The State of New York lease does not contain any rental abatement provisions. The tenant's space will be reconstructed over a period of approximately four years. During the construction period, the tenant will not be required to pay rental charges for certain spaces that are under construction and not usable by the tenant. The amount of space for which the tenant will not be required to pay rent will vary over time and is expected to average approximately 80,000 square feet over the construction time period.
(3)   While GAAP revenue recognition commenced during Q4 2019 after the substantial completion of the tenant's improvements to the space, the rental abatement period began July 2019 (at the commencement of the contracted lease period).

Financing and Capital Activity

Among Piedmont's stated strategic objectives is to harvest capital through the disposition of non-core assets and assets in which the Company believes full value potential during its ownership has been reached and to use the sale proceeds to:
invest in real estate assets with higher overall return prospects and/or strategic merits in one of our identified operating markets where we have a significant operating presence with a competitive operating advantage and that otherwise meet our strategic criteria;
reduce leverage levels by repaying outstanding debt; and/or
repurchase Company stock when it is believed to be trading at a significant discount to NAV.
Information on the Company's recent accomplishments in furtherance of its strategic objectives is presented below.

Dispositions
On March 31, 2020, Piedmont entered into a binding contract to sell 1901 Market Street, a 45-story, 100% leased, 801,000 square foot office building, located in Philadelphia, PA, for $360.0 million, or approximately $450 per square foot. The sale is expected to close during the summer of 2020 and will allow the Company to exit a non-strategic market and effectively redeploy the net proceeds into the Dallas Galleria Office Towers, a strategic acquisition with a higher yield and stronger growth prospects (see Acquisitions below for additional detail). While the Dallas Galleria acquisition has already been completed, it was done so with a short-term increase in debt to bridge the timing difference between the acquisition and the sale of 1901 Market Street. Once the proceeds from the sale of 1901 Market Street are available, those proceeds will be used to repay debt and bring Piedmont's leverage level back down to a level comparable with that in place prior to the Dallas Galleria Office Towers acquisition. Specifically, the Company will repay the $160 million mortgage secured by 1901 Market Street (leaving the Company with only one approximately $28 million mortgage secured by one property and its remaining 56 properties unencumbered) and then use the remaining net proceeds to pay down the balance outstanding on its revolving line of credit. For federal tax purposes, the sale proceeds from 1901 Market Street will be deemed reinvested during the first quarter of 2020 into the Dallas Galleria Office Towers through a reverse 1031 exchange investment structure; therefore, it is not anticipated that a special dividend distribution will be required despite the over $100 million gain expected to be realized from the sale of 1901 Market Street.

Acquisitions
On February 12, 2020, Piedmont completed the purchase of the Dallas Galleria Office Towers, three Class A office buildings and an adjacent developable land parcel, located in Dallas, TX. The total purchase price was $392.2 million, or $273 per square foot, for the office buildings and $4.0 million for the vacant developable land parcel. The investment is expected to generate greater than an 8% accrual-basis yield. The properties consist of One Galleria Tower, a 25-story, 470,000 square foot, 92% leased office building; Two Galleria Tower, a 24-story, 434,000 square foot, 99% leased office building; Three Galleria Tower, a 26-story, 531,000 square foot, 95% leased office building; two multi-level parking structures; and a 1.9 acre developable land parcel zoned for office and residential development. The properties are seamlessly integrated with Galleria Dallas, a 1.5 million square foot, top-performing, retail and dining destination, and the 448-room Westin Galleria Hotel, all prominently positioned at the intersection of the Dallas North Tollway and Interstate 635, a highly-amenitized and demographically affluent location at the most highly trafficked intersection in north Dallas. The acquisition of the properties allows the Company to present prospective tenants in Dallas with a full spectrum of space offerings, as well as capture additional marketing and operating synergies with the Company's previously existing 2.1 million square foot Dallas portfolio. The primary funding source for the acquisition of the properties is intended to be the sale of 1901 Market Street in Philadelphia, PA, discussed under the heading Dispositions above. The Company completed the acquisition of the Dallas project through a reverse 1031 exchange investment structure and intends to close out the reverse exchange with the sale of 1901 Market Street.

For additional information on acquisitions and dispositions completed over the previous eighteen months, please refer to page 38.

Development / Redevelopment
During the fourth quarter of 2019, Piedmont commenced an approximately $18.5 million redevelopment of 200 South Orange Avenue in Orlando, FL. The project will allow the Company to reposition the property, creating a premier environment for downtown office tenants - vibrant, inviting, communal and modern. The redevelopment plan includes a reimagined lobby and entry experience, an energized and redesigned outdoor park, the addition of a food hall and restaurant, an upgraded conference center, a tenant lounge, and a new crown lighting system. As of March 31, 2020, the project remained on schedule and within budget.

Additional detail on the Company's developable land parcels, all of which are located adjacent to existing Piedmont properties, as well as information on current redevelopment projects, can be found on page 39.

Finance
During the first quarter of 2020, Piedmont entered into a $300 million unsecured term loan with a final extended maturity date of March 11, 2022. The proceeds from the loan were used to reduce the balance outstanding on the Company's revolving line of credit. The Company intends to replace the term loan with a longer-tenored, similarly-sized debt issuance once credit markets stabilize and it otherwise believes it is an appropriate time to do so. As of March 31, 2020, the interest rate for LIBOR based loans under the facility was LIBOR + 140 basis points. For additional information on the loan, please refer to page 23.

10


During the first quarter of 2020, Piedmont amended its existing $250 million unsecured term loan that matures on March 31, 2025. The purpose of the loan modification was to replace the original 7-year credit spread pricing grid of the facility with a 5-year credit spread pricing grid, effectively reducing the interest rate structure under the loan. At the Company's current credit rating: (1) for the $200 million of principal amount not subject to interest rate swap agreements, the interest rate for LIBOR based loans was reduced from LIBOR + 160 basis points to LIBOR + 95 basis points; and (2) for the $100 million of principal amount for which the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to effectively fix the interest rate through the loan's maturity date, the effectively fixed interest rate was reduced from 4.21% to 3.56%.

As of March 31, 2020, our ratio of total debt to total gross assets was 38.7%, and the same measure at December 31, 2019 was 32.5%. This debt ratio is based on total principal amount outstanding for our various loans as of the relevant measurement date.

As of March 31, 2020, our average net debt to Core EBITDA ratio was 5.7 x, and the same measure at December 31, 2019 was 5.4 x.

Stock Repurchase Program
Since the prior stock repurchase authorization was scheduled to expire during the first quarter of 2020, the Board of Directors of Piedmont renewed the Company's stock repurchase program on February 19, 2020 by authorizing up to $200 million of additional share repurchases over the following two years. Repurchases of stock under the program are made at the Company's discretion and are dependent on market conditions, the discount to estimated net asset value, other investment opportunities and other factors that the Company deems relevant. As of quarter end, the entire renewed $200 million capacity for stock repurchases remained available.

No repurchases of the Company's common stock were completed during the first quarter of 2020. During 2019, the Company repurchased approximately 0.7 million shares at an average price of $17.14 per share, or approximately $12.5 million in aggregate (before the consideration of transaction costs).

Dividend
On February 4, 2020, the Board of Directors of Piedmont declared a dividend for the first quarter of 2020 in the amount of $0.21 per common share outstanding to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 28, 2020. The dividend was paid on March 20, 2020. The Company's dividend payout percentage (based upon record date) for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 44% of Core FFO and 142% of AFFO. The AFFO dividend payout percentage was high as a result of the one-time payment of leasing commissions associated with the 20-year, approximately 500,000 square foot renewal of the State of New York lease at 60 Broad Street in New York, NY.

Subsequent Events
On April 29, 2020, the Board of Directors of Piedmont declared a dividend for the second quarter of 2020 in the amount of $0.21 per common share outstanding to stockholders of record as of the close of business on May 29, 2020. The dividend is expected to be paid on June 19, 2020.

Guidance for 2020

Since the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and the longer-term consequences on the economy and our tenants is unknown at this time, the Company is withdrawing its guidance for 2020. That said, Piedmont has a strong, diversified tenant base, a majority of which is investment grade quality. Additionally, the Company has a prudent balance sheet with excellent liquidity, including approximately $350 million available on its line of credit at March 31, 2020 and no debt maturities until late 2021. Despite the widespread impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy, the Company currently anticipates that its overall leased percentage and expected 2020 financial performance will not be severely impacted by the pandemic. While it is withdrawing its guidance, the Company is providing additional information regarding performance in April and its current expectations for how the pandemic could impact performance during the rest of the quarter and the rest of the year:
New tenant leasing activity during April has slowed and the Company believes this trend will continue throughout the quarter, likely pushing all “new tenant” leasing goals out at least a quarter, which will modestly lower net operating income (“NOI”) for 2020 by approximately $1.5 million, and lower our originally anticipated year end leased percentage.
Much of Piedmont’s transient parking income for the second quarter will not occur and will reduce NOI by approximately $1 million.
With respect to retail tenant income, which is about 1% of the Company’s total 2020 revenues, retail NOI is estimated to decline by approximately $1.5 million.
To date, approximately 96% of April’s rents have been collected and only a limited number of the remaining tenants that have yet to pay April’s rents are requesting deferral of second quarter rents.
As of this time, the Company has amended lease terms for tenants which will defer approximately $1 million of rents per month for an average of three months, or in total about one-half of a percent of annualized revenues.
While the Company is not aware of other tenant situations that would indicate material reductions in collections in future month, it does not believe the impact of the pandemic on subsequent months’ rent collections can be reasonably estimated at this time.
These identified impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on net operating income during 2020 equate to approximately $0.04 to $0.05 per share of Core FFO reduction. These expectations are conditional upon an important hypothesis that the duration of the effects of the pandemic are largely confined to the second quarter of the current calendar year.
The Company will reevaluate guidance once current “shelter-in-place” orders that are in effect for all of its operating markets are lifted and the longer-term consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and our tenants can more thoroughly be considered.

Please refer to page 28 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) Dividends are reflected in the quarter in which the record date occurred.
(4) Core EBITDA margin is calculated as Core EBITDA divided by total revenues.
(5) 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 $176,040 for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, $502,646 for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, $542,505 for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, $562,449 for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, and $527,551 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019; the Company had principal amortization of $175,383 for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, $345,948 for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, $255,303 for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, $251,793 for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, and $165,936 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.
(6) 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.
(7) Net debt is calculated as the total principal amount of debt outstanding minus cash and cash equivalents and escrow deposits and restricted cash as of the end of the period.

The Company has historically recognized approximately $2 to $3 million of termination income on an annual basis (over the last 5 years). Given the size of its asset base and the number of tenants with which it conducts business, Piedmont considers termination income of that magnitude to be a normal part of its operations and a recurring part of its revenue stream; however, the recognition of termination income is typically variable between quarters and throughout any given year and is dependent upon when during the year the Company receives termination notices from tenants. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, Piedmont recognized $0.6 million in termination income, as compared with $1.8 million during the same period in 2019 and $0.6 million during the prior quarter.

(1)   The increase in Washington, D.C. Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019 was primarily due to increased economic occupancy at 1201 Eye Street and 400 Virginia Avenue, both located in Washington, D.C., and Arlington Gateway and 3100 Clarendon Boulevard, both located in Arlington, VA. Partially offsetting the increase in Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was the recognition of lease termination income during the first quarter of 2019 at 400 Virginia Avenue and 1225 Eye Street, both located in Washington, D.C.
(2)   The decrease in New York Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019 was primarily attributable to decreased occupancy and a rental rate roll down at 60 Broad Street in New York, NY.
(3)   The decrease in Atlanta Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019 was primarily due to rental abatements on two new leases at 1155 Perimeter Center West in Atlanta, GA.
(4)   The increase in Dallas Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019 was primarily due to increased economic occupancy associated with the cash rent commencement for a whole-building lease at 6011 Connection Drive and the recognition of lease termination income during the first quarter of 2020 at Las Colinas Corporate Center I, both located in Irving, TX.
(5)   The increase in Other Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019 was primarily attributable to increased economic occupancy at 1430 Enclave Parkway in Houston, TX.

(1)   Reflects common stock closing price, shares outstanding, and outstanding debt as of the end of the reporting period, as appropriate.
(2)   The metric presents certain financial information about the Company as of March 31, 2020 on a pro forma basis giving effect to the completion of the sale of 1901 Market Street in Philadelphia, PA, and the use of the sale proceeds net of customary closing costs to repay the related $160 million mortgage as well as outstanding indebtedness under the Company’s revolving line of credit. The average net debt to Core EBITDA pro forma calculation assumes a full quarter's loss of EBITDA attributable to 1901 Market Street and a full quarter's contribution of EBITDA from each of One Galleria Tower, Two Galleria Tower and Three Galleria Tower, all located in Dallas, TX, which were acquired in February 2020. The information has been presented to show the anticipated impact of this asset sale transaction on certain of the Company’s statistical measures; however, the information is not intended to present the Company’s operating results on a pro forma basis giving effect to the actions listed above and does not contain all of the information required in connection with pro forma financial statements prepared pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Therefore, future results may differ from these pro forma calculations. Additional information on the disposition transaction can be found in the Dispositions section of Financial Highlights. Pro forma financial statements reflecting, among other items, the sale of 1901 Market Street in Philadelphia, PA, can be found in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 27, 2020.
(3)   Total gross assets is defined as total assets with the add-back of accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization related to real estate assets and accumulated amortization related to deferred lease costs.
(4)   For the purposes of this calculation, we annualize the Core EBITDA for the quarter and use the average daily balance of debt outstanding during the quarter, less cash and cash equivalents and escrow deposits and restricted cash as of the end of the quarter.

(1) All of Piedmont's outstanding debt as of March 31, 2020 was interest-only debt with the exception of the $28.5 million of outstanding 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) The amount of floating rate debt is comprised of the $152 million outstanding balance as of March 31, 2020 on the $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility, the $150 million in principal amount of the $250 million unsecured term loan that remained unhedged as of March 31, 2020, the entire principal balance of the $300 million unsecured term loan that closed in 2011 and the entire principal balance of the $300 million unsecured term loan that closed in 2020. The $250 million unsecured term loan that closed in 2018 has a stated variable rate. However, Piedmont entered into $100 million in notional amount of seven-year interest rate swap agreements resulting in an effectively fixed interest rate for $100 million in principal amount of the term loan (at 3.56% effective as of March 30, 2020, assuming no credit rating change for the Company) through the loan's maturity date of March 31, 2025. Additional details regarding the floating rate debt can be found on the following page.
(4) For loans which provide extension options that are conditional solely upon the Company providing proper notice to the loan's administrative agent and the payment of an extension fee, the final extended maturity date is reflected herein.
(5) The Company has entered into a binding agreement to sell the property securing this debt; the $160 million of mortgage debt is expected to be repaid at the time of sale of the property in the middle of 2020.

(1) All of Piedmont’s outstanding debt as of March 31, 2020, was interest-only debt with the exception of the $28.5 million of outstanding debt associated with 5 Wall Street located in Burlington, MA.
(2) The loan is amortizing based on a 25-year amortization schedule.
(3) The loan has a stated interest rate of 5.55%; however, upon acquiring 5 Wall Street and assuming the loan, the Company marked the debt to its estimated fair value as of that time, resulting in an effective interest rate of 3.75%.
(4) The stated interest rate on the $160 million fixed-rate loan is 3.48%. After the application of interest rate hedges, the effective cost of the financing is approximately 3.58%. The mortgage loan is expected to be paid off in the middle of 2020 at the time of sale of the related property.
(5) Weighted average is based on the principal amounts outstanding and interest rates at March 31, 2020.
(6) The $300 million unsecured 2011 term loan has a variable interest rate. Piedmont may select from multiple interest rate options, including the prime rate and various length LIBOR locks. The base interest rate associated with each LIBOR interest period selection is subject to an additional spread (1.00% as of March 31, 2020) over the selected interest rate based on Piedmont's then current credit rating.
(7) The $300 million unsecured 2020 term loan was funded on March 24, 2020 and has an initial maturity date of March 12, 2021; however, there are two, six-month extension options available under the financing providing for a total extension of up to one year to March 11, 2022. The final extended maturity date is presented on this schedule.
(8) The $300 million unsecured 2020 term loan has a variable interest rate. Piedmont may select from multiple interest rate options, including the prime rate and various length LIBOR locks. The base interest rate associated with each LIBOR interest period selection is subject to an additional spread (1.40% as of March 31, 2020) over the selected interest rate based on Piedmont's then current credit rating.
(9) The $350 million unsecured senior notes were offered for sale at 99.601% of the principal amount. The resulting effective cost of the financing is approximately 3.45% before the consideration of transaction costs and proceeds from interest rate hedges. After the application of proceeds from interest rate hedges, the effective cost of the financing is approximately 3.43%.
(10) All of Piedmont’s outstanding debt as of March 31, 2020 was term debt with the exception of $152 million outstanding on our unsecured revolving credit facility. The $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility has an initial maturity date of September 30, 2022; however, there are two, six-month extension options available under the facility providing for a total extension of up to one year to September 29, 2023. The final extended maturity date is presented on this schedule.

Piedmont may select from multiple interest rate options with each draw under the facility, including the prime rate and various length LIBOR locks. The base interest rate associated with each LIBOR interest period selection is subject to an additional spread (0.90% as of March 31, 2020) based on Piedmont’s then current credit rating.
(12) The $400 million unsecured senior notes were offered for sale at 99.791% of the principal amount. The resulting effective cost of the financing is approximately 4.48% before the consideration of transaction costs and proceeds from interest rate hedges. After the application of proceeds from interest rate hedges, the effective cost of the financing is approximately 4.10%.
(13) The $250 million unsecured term loan that closed in 2018 has a stated variable interest rate; however, Piedmont entered into $100 million in notional amount of seven-year interest rate swap agreements that effectively fixed the interest rate on $100 million of the term loan (at 3.56% effective as of March 30, 2020, assuming no credit rating change for the Company) through the loan's maturity date of March 31, 2025. For the portion of the loan that continues to have a variable interest rate, Piedmont may select from multiple interest rate options, including the prime rate and various length LIBOR locks. The base interest rate associated with each LIBOR interest period selection is subject to an additional spread (0.95% as of March 31, 2020) based on Piedmont's then current credit rating.
(14)   The GAAP accounting adjustments relate to original issue discounts, third-party fees, and lender fees resulting from the procurement processes for our various debt facilities, along with debt fair value adjustments associated with the assumed 5 Wall Street debt. The original issue discounts and fees, along with the debt fair value adjustments, are amortized to interest expense over the contractual term of the related debt.

(1) Bank debt covenant compliance calculations relate to specific calculations detailed in the relevant credit agreements.
(2) Defined as EBITDA for the trailing four quarters (including the Company's share of EBITDA from unconsolidated interests), excluding 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, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company had capitalized interest of $176,040 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and $2,135,150 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019. The Company had principal amortization of $175,383 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and $1,018,979 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019.

(2) The classification of a tenant as "not rated" is not an 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 Sandler, Brother International, and RaceTrac Petroleum.

(1) The populations analyzed for this analysis consist of consolidated leases executed during the relevant period with lease terms of greater than one year. Leases associated with storage spaces, management offices, and newly acquired assets for which there is less than one year of operating history are excluded from this analysis.
(2) For the purposes of this analysis, the last twelve months of cash paying rents of the previous leases are compared to the first twelve months of cash paying 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 more than one year.

NOTE: This information is presented for our consolidated office assets only and excludes activity associated with storage and license 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) During 2019, we completed three large lease renewals with significant capital commitments: VMware at 1155 Perimeter Center West in Atlanta, GA, Siemens at Crescent Ridge II in Minnetonka, MN, and the State of New York at 60 Broad Street in New York, NY. If the costs associated with these 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 renewal leases and total leases completed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 would be $3.41 and $5.04, respectively.
(3) During 2018, we completed two large leasing transactions in the Houston, TX market with large capital commitments: a 254,000 square foot lease renewal and expansion with Schlumberger Technology Corporation at 1430 Enclave Parkway and a 301,000 square foot, full-building lease with Transocean Offshore Deepwater Drilling at Enclave Place. If the costs associated with those 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 renewal leases, new leases and total leases completed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 would be $5.27, $6.02, and $5.70, respectively.
(4) The Company has historically reported the maximum amount of capital to which it committed in leasing transactions as of the signing of the leases with no subsequent updates for variations and/or changes in tenants' uses of tenant improvement allowances. Many times, tenants do not fully use the allowances provided in their leases or let portions of their tenant improvement allowances expire. In an effort to provide additional clarity on the actual costs of completed leasing transactions, tenant improvement allowances that expired or became no longer available to tenants are disclosed in this section and are deducted from the capital commitments per square foot of leased space in the periods in which they expired in an effort to provide a better estimation of leasing transaction costs over time.

Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc.
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 42 .
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 (that are not capitalized) 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 development properties and properties taken out of service for redevelopment, 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 (that are not capitalized) 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.
EBITDAre : The Company calculates EBITDAre in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines EBITDAre as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) adjusted for gains or losses from sales of property, impairment losses, depreciation on real estate assets, amortization on real estate assets, interest expense and taxes, along with the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Some of the adjustments mentioned can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. EBITDAre 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 EBITDAre is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization) and capitalization and capital structure expenses (such as interest expense and taxes). The Company also believes that EBITDAre can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of EBITDAre may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.
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 and accumulated amortization related to deferred lease costs.
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, renovations that change the underlying classification of a building, and deferred building maintenance capital identified at and completed shortly after acquisition are included in this measure.
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 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 land assets.

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: actual or threatened public health epidemics or outbreaks, such as the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic that the world is currently experiencing, and governmental and private measures taken to combat such health crises, which may affect our personnel, tenants, and the costs of operating our assets; economic, regulatory, socio-economic changes, and/or technology 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 specifically the seven markets in which we primarily operate where we have high concentrations of our annualized lease revenue; lease terminations, lease defaults, or changes in the financial condition of our tenants, particularly by one of our large lead tenants; adverse market and economic conditions, including any resulting impairment charges on both our long-lived assets or goodwill resulting therefrom; 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 regulatory restrictions to which REITs are subject and 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 and disposition of properties, many of which risks and uncertainties may not be known at the time of acquisition or disposition; development and construction delays and resultant increased costs and risks; our real estate development strategies may not be successful; future acts of terrorism or armed hostilities 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, including an increased risk of default by government tenants during periods in which state or federal governments are shut down or on furlough; significant price and volume fluctuations in the public markets, including on the exchange which we listed our common stock; changes in the method pursuant to which the LIBOR rates are determined and the potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021; 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; changes in the financial condition of our tenants directly or indirectly resulting from geopolitical developments that could negatively affect international trade, including the uncertainty surrounding the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union, the termination or threatened termination of existing international trade agreements, or the implementation of tariffs or retaliatory tariffs on imported or exported goods; the effect of any litigation to which we are, or may become, subject; additional risks and costs associated with owning properties occupied by co-working tenants, including risks of default during start-up and during economic downturns; 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 or otherwise adversely affect our stockholders; the future effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures; and other factors, including the risk factors discussed under Item 1A. of Piedmont’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
