1. Business of Organization
 
Armada Hoffler Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) is a full service real estate company with extensive experience developing, building, owning and managing high-quality, institutional-grade office, retail and multifamily properties in attractive markets primarily throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern United States. The Company is the sole general partner of Armada Hoffler, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) and, as of September 30, 2018, owned 74.3% of the economic interest in the Operating Partnership, of which 0.1% is held as general partnership units. The operations of the Company are carried on primarily through the Operating Partnership and the wholly owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership.
 
As of September 30, 2018, the Company's property portfolio consisted of 50 operating properties and 10 development properties.

Refer to Note 4 for information related to the Company's recent acquisitions and dispositions of operating properties.

Refer to Note 5 for information related to the Company’s investment in Durham City Center II, LLC, which is an unconsolidated subsidiary that the Company accounts for using the equity method of accounting.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial position and results of operations of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are necessary for the fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the interim periods presented.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the requirements for interim financial information. Accordingly, these interim financial statements have not been audited and exclude certain disclosures required for annual financial statements. Also, the operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed. Such estimates are based on management’s historical experience and best judgment after considering past, current and expected events and economic conditions. Actual results could differ significantly from management’s estimates.

Reclassifications

During the second quarter of 2018, the Company identified certain immaterial classification errors on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and determined that, in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and future periodic reports, the Company will correct these classification errors. One classification error will be corrected by including within the changes in operating assets and liabilities in the operating activities section a new line item for "Interest receivable." A corresponding adjustment will be recorded to reduce the amount of "Notes receivable

issuances" within investing activities on the consolidated statement of cash flows. These reclassifications totaled $7.1 million, $3.2 million, and $0.1 million during the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively and $5.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. These reclassifications will decrease "Net cash provided by operating activities" and "Net cash used for investing activities" by an equal and offsetting amount. These reclassifications will not have any impact on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Income, Consolidated Statement of Equity, or any other operating measure for the periods affected.

These amounts were previously presented as "Notes receivable issuances," a component of net cash used for investing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, resulting in overstatements in cash provided by operating activities and overstatements of cash used in investing activities. These amounts represent interest earned on mezzanine loans that were funded by additional borrowings as provided for in the mezzanine loan agreements. These amounts are now classified as changes in interest receivable, a non-cash adjustment to calculate net cash provided by operating activities.

The second classification error will be corrected by including within financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows a new line item for “Common shares tendered for tax withholding.” A corresponding adjustment will be recorded to the "Changes in operating assets and liabilities: Property liabilities" within operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. This reclassification totaled $0.3 million, $0.2 million, and $0.3 million during the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively and $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. These reclassifications will increase “Net cash provided by operating activities” and decrease “Net cash provided by financing activities” by an equal and offsetting amount.
 
Significant Accounting Policies

General Contracting and Real Estate Services Revenues

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard codified in Accounting Standards Codification 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (see also "Recent Accounting Pronouncements" below). The Company recognizes general contracting revenues as a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. For each construction contract, the Company identifies the performance obligations, which typically include the delivery of a single building constructed according to the specifications of the contract. The Company estimates the total transaction price, which generally includes a fixed contract price and may also include variable components such as early completion bonuses, liquidated damages, or cost savings to be shared with the customer. Variable components of the contract price are included in the transaction price to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur. The Company recognizes the estimated transaction price as revenue as it satisfies its performance obligations, and the Company estimates its progress in satisfying performance obligations for each contract using the percentage-of-completion method, based on the proportion of incurred costs to total estimated construction costs at completion. Construction contract costs include all direct material, direct labor, subcontract costs, and overhead costs directly related to contract performance. Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions and final contract settlements, are all significant judgments that may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which they are determined. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are recognized immediately in the period in which such losses are determined. The Company defers pre-contract costs when such costs are directly associated with specific anticipated contracts and their recovery is probable.
 
The Company recognizes real estate services revenues from property development and management services as it satisfies its performance obligations under these service arrangements.

The Company assesses whether multiple contracts with a single counterparty should be combined into a single contract for revenue recognition purposes based on factors such as the timing of the negotiation and execution of the contracts and whether the economic substance of the contracts was contemplated separately or in tandem.

See the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 for a description of other accounting principles upon which basis the accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new standard that provides a single, comprehensive model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. While the new standard does not supersede the guidance on accounting for leases, it changes the way the Company recognizes revenue from construction and development contracts with third party customers. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method, applying this standard to all contracts not yet completed as of that date. In applying the standard to the Company’s future construction contracts, certain pre-contract costs incurred by the Company are now deferred and amortized over the period during which construction obligations are fulfilled. Previously, these costs were immediately recorded as general contracting expenses upon commencement of construction, with the corresponding general contracting revenue also recorded. Applying the standard to the Company’s uncompleted contracts as of January 1, 2018 did not result in material differences to these contracts in aggregate, and no cumulative adjustment to distributions in excess of earnings was recorded as of January 1, 2018.
 
On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued a new lease standard that requires lessees to recognize most leases in their balance sheets as lease liabilities with corresponding right-of-use assets. The new standard also makes targeted changes to lessor accounting. The new standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2019 and requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, with an option to use certain transition relief. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of the new standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company is the lessee on certain long-term ground leases, which represents a majority of the Company's current operating lease payments, and expects to record right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for these leases under the new standard. The Company anticipates utilizing certain transition relief under the new standard that will allow the Company not to apply certain aspects of the new standard to its existing leases.
  
In 2016, the FASB issued new guidance that addresses eight classification issues related to the statement of cash flows and requires the presentation of total changes in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this new guidance on December 31, 2017, applying it retrospectively to each period presented. The new guidance requires that the statement of cash flows show changes in restricted cash in addition to changes in cash and cash equivalents. No additional changes were required to be made to the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows as a result of the new guidance. The following table sets forth the items from the Company's consolidated balance sheets that are included in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash in the consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):

On February 22, 2017, the FASB issued new guidance that clarifies the scope and application of guidance on sales or transfers of nonfinancial assets and in substance nonfinancial assets to customers, including partial sales. The new guidance applies to all nonfinancial assets, including real estate, and defines an in substance nonfinancial asset. The Company adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2018, and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On August 28, 2017, the FASB issued new guidance that simplifies some of the requirements relating to accounting for derivatives and hedging. The new guidance eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness for a highly effective hedge and also simplifies certain documentation and assessment requirements relating to the determination of hedge effectiveness. The Company adopted this guidance effective July 1, 2018. The application of this guidance to hedging relationships could reduce or eliminate the gains and losses that would otherwise be recorded in net income for these derivative instruments.

3. Segments
 
Net operating income (segment revenues minus segment expenses) is the measure used by the Company’s chief operating decision-maker to assess segment performance. Net operating income is not a measure of operating income or cash flows from operating activities as measured by GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. As a result, net operating income should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies calculate net operating income in the same manner. The Company considers net operating income to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it assists both investors and management in understanding the core operations of the Company’s real estate and construction businesses.

On November 30, 2017, the Company entered into a lease agreement with Bottling Group, LLC for a new distribution facility that the Company will develop and construct for expected delivery in the fourth quarter of 2018. On January 29, 2018, the Company acquired undeveloped land in Chesterfield, Virginia, a portion of which currently serves as the site for this facility, for a contract price of $2.4 million plus capitalized acquisition costs of $0.1 million.

On January 18, 2018, the Company entered into an operating agreement with a partner to develop a Lowes Foods-anchored shopping center in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. The Company has a 70% ownership interest in the partnership. The partnership, Market at Mill Creek Partners, LLC, acquired undeveloped land on February 16, 2018 for a contract price of $2.9 million plus capitalized acquisition costs of $0.1 million. The Company is responsible for funding the equity requirements of this development. As of September 30, 2018, the book value of the Company's investment in the project totaled $14.2 million. Management has concluded that this entity is a variable interest entity ("VIE") as it lacks sufficient equity to fund its operations without additional financial support. The Company is the developer of the shopping center and has the power to direct the activities of the project that most significantly impact its performance and is the party most closely associated with the project. Therefore, the Company is the project's primary beneficiary and consolidates the project in its consolidated financial statements.

On April 2, 2018, the Company acquired undeveloped land in Newport News, Virginia for less than $0.1 million. This land parcel is being used in the development of the Brooks Crossing office property.

On July 2, 2018, the Company executed a ground lease for the site of a new mixed-use development project at Wills Wharf, a site in the Harbor Point area of Baltimore, Maryland. The lease has an initial term of five years and includes ten extension options of seven years each.

Property Disposition

On May 24, 2018, the Company completed the sale of the Wawa outparcel at Indian Lakes Crossing for a contract price of $4.4 million. There was no gain or loss on the disposition.

5. Equity Method Investment

City Center

On February 25, 2016, the Company acquired a 37% interest in Durham City Center II, LLC (“City Center”) for purposes of developing a 22-story mixed use tower in Durham, North Carolina. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company invested an additional $5.1 million in City Center. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had invested $15.9 million and $10.9 million, respectively, in City Center, and the carrying value of the Company's investment was $16.8 million and $11.4 million, respectively. The Company has agreed to guarantee 37% of the construction loan for City Center; however, the loan is collateralized by 100% of the assets of City Center. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, $44.2 million and $29.2 million, respectively, had been drawn against the construction loan, of which $16.3 million and $11.2 million, respectively, was attributable to the Company's portion of the loan.

Table of Contents

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, City Center did not have any operating activity, and therefore the Company did not receive any distributions or allocated income. 
 
Based on the terms of City Center’s operating agreement, the Company has concluded that City Center is a VIE and that the Company holds a variable interest. The Company does not have the power to direct the activities of the project that most significantly impact its performance. Accordingly, the Company is not the project’s primary beneficiary and, therefore, does not consolidate City Center in its consolidated financial statements.

7. Construction Contracts

Construction contract costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings represent reimbursable costs and amounts earned under contracts in progress as of the balance sheet date. Such amounts become billable according to contract terms, which usually consider the passage of time, achievement of certain milestones or completion of the project. The Company expects to bill and collect substantially all construction contract costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings as of September 30, 2018 during the next twelve months.  
 
Billings in excess of construction contract costs and estimated earnings represent billings or collections on contracts made in advance of revenue recognized.

Credit Facility
 
On October 26, 2017, the Operating Partnership entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “credit agreement”), which provides for a $300.0 million senior credit facility comprised of a $150.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "revolving credit facility") and a $150.0 million senior unsecured term loan facility (the "term loan facility" and, together with the revolving credit facility, the "credit facility"), with a syndicate of banks.
 
The credit facility includes an accordion feature that allows the total commitments to be increased to $450.0 million, subject to certain conditions, including obtaining commitments from any one or more lenders. The revolving credit facility has a scheduled maturity date of October 26, 2021, with two six-month extension options, subject to certain conditions, including payment of a 0.075% extension fee at each extension. The term loan facility has a scheduled maturity date of October 26, 2022.
 
On March 28, 2018, the Operating Partnership increased the maximum commitments under the credit facility to $330.0 million using the accordion feature, with an increase of the term loan facility to $180.0 million.

The revolving credit facility bears interest at LIBOR (the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate) plus a margin ranging from 1.40% to 2.00% and the term loan facility bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.35% to 1.95%, in each case depending on the Company's total leverage. The Company is also obligated to pay an unused commitment fee of 15 or 25 basis points on the unused portions of the commitments under the revolving credit facility, depending on the amount of borrowings under the credit facility.

As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility was $102.0 million and $66.0 million, respectively, and the outstanding balance on the term loan facility was $180.0 million and $150.0 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2018, the effective interest rates on the revolving credit facility and the term loan facility were 3.81% and 3.76%, respectively. The Company may, at any time, voluntarily prepay any loan under the credit facility in whole or in part without premium or penalty.

The Operating Partnership is the borrower under the credit facility, and its obligations under the credit facility are guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries that are not otherwise prohibited from providing such guaranty. The credit agreement contains customary representations and warranties and financial and other affirmative and negative covenants. The Company's ability to borrow under the credit facility is subject to ongoing compliance with a number of financial covenants, affirmative covenants and other restrictions. The credit agreement includes customary events of default, in certain cases subject to customary cure periods. The occurrence of an event of default, if not cured within the applicable cure period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the unpaid principal, accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts payable under the credit facility to be immediately due and payable.

The Company is currently in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreement.

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

On March 7, 2018, the Operating Partnership entered into a LIBOR interest rate cap agreement on a notional amount of $50.0 million at a strike rate of 2.25% for a premium of $0.3 million.

This interest rate swap has not been designated as a hedge for accounting purposes.

During the three months ended September 30, 2018, unrealized losses of $130,000 were recorded to other comprehensive loss, and $67,000 of realized losses were reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense due to payments made to the swap counterparty during the three months ended September 30, 2018. During the next 12 months, the Company anticipates reclassifying approximately $173,000 of net hedging losses from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings to offset the variability of the hedged item during this period.

As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company held a 74.3% and 72.0% interest, respectively, in the Operating Partnership.

12. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
Fair value measurements are based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. The hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value is as follows: 
Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities 
Level 2—observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities 
Level 3—unobservable inputs 
Except as disclosed below, the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair values. Financial assets and liabilities whose fair values are measured on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs consist of interest rate swaps and caps. The Company measures the fair values of these assets and liabilities based on prices provided by independent market participants that are based on observable inputs using market-based valuation techniques.

Financial assets and liabilities whose fair values are not measured at fair value but for which the fair value is disclosed include the Company's notes receivable and indebtedness. The fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at estimated market rates consistent with the maturity, credit characteristics, and other terms of the arrangements, which are Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy.
 
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. For disclosure purposes, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were as follows (in thousands):

In addition, the tax protection agreements provide that the Operating Partnership will offer certain of the original contributors, including certain of the Company’s directors and executive officers, the opportunity to guarantee debt, or, alternatively, to enter into a deficit restoration obligation, for ten years from the closing of the Company’s initial public offering in a manner intended to provide an allocation of Operating Partnership liabilities to the partner for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

14. Commitments and Contingencies
 
Legal Proceedings
 
The Company is from time to time involved in various disputes, lawsuits, warranty claims, environmental and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Management makes assumptions and estimates concerning the likelihood and amount of any potential loss relating to these matters.
 
The Company currently is a party to various legal proceedings. Management accrues a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is determined to be probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. If an unfavorable outcome is determined to be probable and a range of loss can be reasonably estimated, management accrues the best estimate within the range; however, if no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the minimum amount within the range is accrued. Legal fees related to litigation are expensed as incurred. Management does not believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations; however, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties.
 
Under the Company’s leases, tenants are typically obligated to indemnify the Company from and against all liabilities, costs and expenses imposed upon or asserted against it as owner of the properties due to certain matters relating to the operation of the properties by the tenant.
 
Commitments
 
The Company has a bonding line of credit for its general contracting construction business and is contingently liable under performance and payment bonds, bonds for cancellation of mechanics liens and defect bonds. Such bonds collectively totaled $33.4 million and $44.9 million as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
 
The Operating Partnership has entered into standby letters of credit using the available capacity under the credit facility. Letters of credit generally are available for draw down in the event the Company does not perform. As of both September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Operating Partnership had total outstanding letters of credit of $2.1 million. The amounts outstanding at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were comprised of a $2.1 million letter of credit related to the guarantee on the 1405 Point senior construction loan.
Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
References to “we,” “our,” “us,” and “our company” refer to Armada Hoffler Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, together with our consolidated subsidiaries, including Armada Hoffler, L.P., a Virginia limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), of which we are the sole general partner. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.
 
Forward-Looking Statements
 
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements presented in this report, or which management may make orally or in writing from time to time, are based on beliefs and assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. When used, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “result,” and similar expressions, which do not relate solely to historical matters, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions and are not guarantees of future performance, which may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties, and factors that are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. We caution you that while forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs when we make them, they are not guarantees of future performance and are impacted by actual events when they occur after we make such statements. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements, which are based on results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.
 
Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties and you should not rely on them as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements depend on assumptions, data or methods which may be incorrect or imprecise, and we may not be able to realize them. We do not guarantee that the transactions and events described will happen as described (or that they will happen at all). The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements:
 
adverse economic or real estate developments, either nationally or in the markets in which our properties are located; 
our failure to develop the properties in our development pipeline successfully, on the anticipated timeline, or at the anticipated costs; 
our failure to generate sufficient cash flows to service our outstanding indebtedness; 
defaults on, early terminations of, or non-renewal of leases by tenants, including significant tenants; 
bankruptcy or insolvency of a significant tenant or a substantial number of smaller tenants; 
the inability of one or more mezzanine loan borrowers to repay mezzanine loans according to their contractual terms;
difficulties in identifying or completing development, acquisition, or disposition opportunities; 
our failure to successfully operate developed and acquired properties; 
our failure to generate income in our general contracting and real estate services segment in amounts that we anticipate; 
fluctuations in interest rates and increased operating costs;
our failure to obtain necessary outside financing on favorable terms or at all; 
our inability to extend the maturity of or refinance existing debt or comply with the financial covenants in the agreements that govern our existing debt; 
financial market fluctuations; 
risks that affect the general retail environment or the market for office properties or multifamily units; 
the competitive environment in which we operate; 
decreased rental rates or increased vacancy rates;

Third Quarter 2018 and Recent Highlights
 
The following highlights our results of operations and significant transactions for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and other recent developments:
 
Net income of $5.7 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to $10.5 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2017

Funds from operations ("FFO") of $15.9 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to $15.5 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2017. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” 

Normalized funds from operations (“Normalized FFO”) of $15.7 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to $15.5 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2017. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

In October 2018, the Company reached an agreement to sell its at-cost purchase option to the developer of The Residences at Annapolis Junction for $5.0 million. The Company also agreed to extend the maturity of its mezzanine loan and allow the developer to refinance the project in order to realize the full potential value upon expected stabilization in 2019. The Company expects the developer to close on these transactions in the fourth quarter of 2018, at which time the Company anticipates repayment of approximately $12.0 million on its mezzanine loan in addition to the $5.0 million of option sale proceeds.

In October 2018, the Company announced its investment in Nexton Square, a new $45.0 million lifestyle center in the greater Charleston, South Carolina MSA. The Company will provide mezzanine financing and construction management/development services for the project. The Company will also have a below market option to purchase the project upon completion.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Lexington Square, a new 85,000 square foot Lowes Foods-anchored retail center near Columbia, South Carolina for $26.7 million of total consideration, a portion of which will be paid in Operating Partnership units.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2018, the Company raised approximately $10.6 million of gross proceeds through its at-the-market equity offering program at an average price of $15.66 per share.

Segment Results of Operations
 
As of September 30, 2018, we operated our business in four segments: (i) office real estate, (ii) retail real estate, (iii) multifamily residential real estate and (iv) general contracting and real estate services, which are conducted through our taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”). Net operating income (segment revenues minus segment expenses) ("NOI") is the measure used by management to assess segment performance and allocate our resources among our segments. NOI is not a measure of operating income or cash flows from operating activities as measured by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. As a result, NOI should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies calculate NOI in the same manner. We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it assists both investors and management in understanding the core operations of our real estate and construction businesses. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a reconciliation of NOI to net income.
 
We define same store properties as those properties that we owned and operated and that were stabilized for the entirety of both periods presented. We generally consider a property to be stabilized upon the earlier of: (i) the quarter after the property reaches 80% occupancy or (ii) the thirteenth quarter after the property receives its certificate of occupancy. Additionally, any property that is fully or partially taken out of service for the purpose of redevelopment is no longer considered stabilized until the redevelopment activities are complete and the asset is placed back into service.
