**1. Organization:**

The Macerich Company (the "Company") is involved in the acquisition, ownership, development, redevelopment, management and leasing of regional retail centers and community/power shopping centers (the "Centers") located throughout the United States.

The Company commenced operations effective with the completion of its initial public offering on March 16, 1994. As of March 31, 2026, the Company was the sole general partner of and held a 96% ownership interest in The Macerich Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership"). The Company was organized to qualify as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

The property management, leasing and redevelopment of the Company's portfolio is provided by the Company's management companies, Macerich Property Management Company, LLC, a single member Delaware limited liability company, Macerich Management Company, a California corporation, Macerich Arizona Partners LLC, a single member Arizona limited liability company, Macerich Arizona Management LLC, a single member Delaware limited liability company, Macerich Partners of Colorado LLC, a single member Colorado limited liability company, MACW Mall Management, Inc., a New York corporation, and MACW Property Management, LLC, a single member New York limited liability company.

**2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:**

*Basis of Presentation:*

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm.

The Company's sole significant asset is its investment in the Operating Partnership and as a result, substantially all of the Company's assets and liabilities represent the assets and liabilities of the Operating Partnership. In addition, the Operating Partnership has investments in a number of consolidated variable interest entities ("VIEs"), including SanTan Village Regional Center.

The Operating Partnership's consolidated VIEs included the following assets and liabilities:

**2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)**

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements for the interim periods have been made. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 has been derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the beginning of period and end of period cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported on the Company's consolidated balance sheets to the totals shown on its consolidated statements of cash flows:

*Recent Accounting Pronouncements:*

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"). The amendments in ASU 2024-03 apply to all public business entities and require disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting ASU 2024-03.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments ("ASU 2024-04"). The amendments in ASU 2024-04 clarify the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted ASU 2024-04 as of January 1, 2026. The adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, as the Company has not entered into any exchange-related settlements, modifications, or inducement transactions.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements ("ASU 2025-11").

**5. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities:**

The Company uses interest rate cap agreements to manage the interest rate risk on certain floating rate debt. The Company recorded other comprehensive income related to the marking-to-market of derivative instruments of $2 and $20 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The amounts in other comprehensive income represent the Company's pro rata share of hedged derivative instruments from certain unconsolidated joint ventures. The following derivative was outstanding at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

---

| | | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | | | | | | **Fair Value** | **Fair Value** |
|<br>**Property** |<br>**Designation** |<br>**Notional Amount** |<br>**Product** |<br>**SOFR Rate** |<br>**Maturity** | **March 31,<br>2026** | **December 31,<br>2025** |
| Crabtree Mall | Non-Hedged | $159100 | Cap | 5.00% | 8/7/2027 | $75 | $15 |

---

The above derivative was valued with an aggregate fair value (Level 2 measurement) and was included in deferred charges and other assets, net. The fair value of the Company's interest rate derivative was determined using discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivative, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurement.

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivative falls within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivative utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. The Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its interest rate cap. As a result, the Company determined that its interest rate cap valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

**6. Property, net:**

Property, net consists of the following:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **March 31,<br>2026** | **December 31,<br>2025** |
| Land | $1541312 | $1538916 |

| Tenant improvements | 703397 | 675233 |
| Equipment and furnishings | 172115 | 170869 |
| Construction in progress | 307729 | 323142 |

| Less accumulated depreciation | (2584175) | (2512519) |
|  | $6666442 | $6688128 |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;See Note 15—Dispositions.

The following table summarizes certain of the Company's assets that were measured on a nonrecurring basis as a result of the impairment losses recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, as described above:

---

| Los Cerritos Center | 12585 | 14573 |
| Total | $29261 | $33424 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The mortgage notes payable also include unamortized deferred finance costs that are amortized into interest expense over the remaining term of the related debt in a manner that approximates the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred finance costs were $21,350 and $20,274 at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)The interest rate disclosed represents the effective interest rate, including the impact of debt discounts and deferred finance costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)The monthly debt service represents the payment of principal and interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)The maturity date assumes that all extension options are fully exercised and that the Company does not opt to refinance the debt prior to these dates. These extension options are at the Company's discretion, subject to certain conditions, which the Company believes will be met.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5)On August 7, 2025, the Company closed on an initial $159,100 two-year term loan with two one-year extension options on Crabtree Mall. The term loan also allows for additional requested advances of up to $51,180 based on defined conditions for capital expenditures and leasing costs for a maximum total term loan of $210,280. The term loan bears interest at a rate of SOFR plus 2.50%. The Company has purchased a SOFR interest rate cap for the initial term loan advance with a strike rate of 5.0% for the two-year base term of the term loan. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from this term loan to fully repay borrowings outstanding on the Company's revolving credit facility (See Note 14—Acquisitions).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6)Effective April 9, 2024, the loan is in default and accrues incremental default interest of 4%. On March 18, 2025, a court appointed receiver assumed operational control and managerial responsibility for Santa Monica Place. The Company anticipates the disposition of the asset, which is under the control of the receiver, will be executed through foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or by some other means, and is expected to be completed in the near future. Although the Company is no longer funding any cash shortfall, it will continue to record the operations of the property until the title for the Center is transferred and its obligation for the loan is discharged. Once title to the property is transferred, the Company will remove the net assets and liabilities from the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The loan is non-recourse to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7)Effective November 6, 2025, the loan was in default and accrued incremental default interest of 4%. On February 6, 2026, the Company extended the loan maturity on the $200,000 loan to November 6, 2029, at the existing rate of 4.22%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8)On March 6, 2026, the Company repaid the outstanding loan balance of $211,507 on Vintage Faire Mall at maturity with cash on hand and $100,000 of borrowings on the revolving credit facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9)On March 27, 2025, the Company closed a $340,000, ten-year loan on Washington Square, which matures on April 6, 2035. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.58% and is interest only during the entire loan term.

Most of the mortgage loan agreements contain a prepayment penalty provision for the early extinguishment of the debt.

The Company's mortgage notes payable are secured by the properties on which they are placed and are non-recourse to the Company.

The Company expects that all loan maturities during the next twelve months will be refinanced, restructured, extended and/or paid off from the Company's line of credit or with cash on hand, with the exception of Santa Monica Place as noted above.

Total interest expense capitalized was $3,485 and $4,769 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

The estimated fair value (Level 2 measurement) of mortgage notes payable at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $4,865,940 and $4,982,754, respectively, based on current interest rates for comparable loans. Fair value was determined using a present value model and an interest rate that included a credit value adjustment based on the estimated value of the property that serves as collateral for the underlying debt.

**11. Bank and Other Notes Payable:**

Bank and other notes payable consist of the following:

*Credit Facility:*

Previously, the Company had a $650,000 revolving credit facility, which was scheduled to mature on February 1, 2027. On February 24, 2026, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), which amended and restated the prior credit agreement and provides for an aggregate $900,000 revolving credit facility that matures on March 1, 2029, with an option for the Company to extend maturity until March 1, 2030. The Company has the ability from time to time to increase the size of the revolving credit facility up to an aggregate amount of $1,100,000, subject to the receipt of lender commitments and other conditions. Loans made under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company's election, at either the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus, in both cases, an applicable margin. The current applicable margin depends on the Company's overall debt yield and ranges from 0.80% to 2.20% over the selected index rate. Upon the achievement of certain performance thresholds, the applicable margin will depend on the Company's overall net debt to EBITDA ratio and will be in a range of 0.35% to 1.65% over the selected index rate.

As of March 31, 2026, the borrowing rate was SOFR plus a spread of 1.90%. As of March 31, 2026, borrowings under the revolving credit facility were $100,000 less unamortized deferred finance costs of $18,037 for the revolving credit facility at a total effective interest rate of 6.16%. As of March 31, 2026, the Company's availability under the revolving credit facility for additional borrowings was $799,409. The estimated fair value (Level 2 measurement) of borrowings under the revolving credit facility at March 31, 2026 was $99,772 for the revolving credit facility based on a present value model using a credit interest rate spread offered to the Company for comparable debt.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all applicable financial loan covenants.

**12. Noncontrolling Interests:**

The Company allocates net loss of the Operating Partnership based on the weighted average ownership interest during the period. The net loss of the Operating Partnership that is not attributable to the Company is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as noncontrolling interests. The Company adjusts the noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership at the end of each period to reflect its ownership interest in the Company. The Company had a 96% ownership interest in the Operating Partnership as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The remaining 4% limited partnership interest as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was owned by certain of the Company's executive officers and directors, certain of their affiliates and other third party investors in the form of OP Units. The OP Units may be redeemed for shares of stock or cash, at the Company's option. The redemption value for each OP Unit as of any balance sheet date is the amount equal to the average of the closing price per share of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange for the 10 trading days ending on the respective balance sheet date. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the aggregate redemption value of the then-outstanding OP Units not owned by the Company was $210,628 and $216,826, respectively.

The Company issued common and preferred units of MACWH, LP in April 2005 in connection with the acquisition of the Wilmorite portfolio. The common and preferred units of MACWH, LP are redeemable at the election of the holder. The Company may redeem them for cash or shares of the Company's stock at the Company's option and they are classified as permanent equity.

Included in permanent equity are outside ownership interests in various consolidated joint ventures. The joint ventures do not have rights that require the Company to redeem the ownership interests in either cash or stock.

In connection with the commencement of an "at the market" offering program on November 12, 2024, which is referred to as the "2024 ATM Program," the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement with certain sales agents pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $500,000 under the 2024 ATM Program. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company issued 3,252,163 shares of common stock under the 2024 ATM Program for aggregate gross proceeds of $61,777 and net proceeds of $60,541 after commissions and other transaction costs.

Actual future sales will depend upon a variety of factors including, but not limited to, market conditions, the trading price of the Company's common stock and the Company's capital needs. The Company has no obligation to sell the remaining shares available for sale under the 2024 ATM Program.

*Stock Buyback Program*

On February 12, 2017, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500,000 of its outstanding common shares as market conditions and the Company's liquidity warrant. Repurchases may be made through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, structured or derivative transactions, including accelerated share repurchase transactions, or other methods of acquiring shares, from time to time as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements. The program is referred to herein as the "Stock Buyback Program".

There were no repurchases under the Stock Buyback Program during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or 2025.

**18. Share and Unit-Based Plans:**

Under the Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP"), each award recipient is issued a form of operating partnership units ("LTIP Units") in the Operating Partnership or form of restricted stock units (together with the LTIP Units, the "LTI Units"). Upon the occurrence of specified events and subject to the satisfaction of applicable vesting conditions, LTIP Units (after conversion into OP Units) are ultimately redeemable for common stock of the Company, or cash at the Company's option, on a one-unit for one-share basis. LTI Units receive cash dividends based on the dividend amount paid on the common stock of the Company. The LTIP may include market-indexed awards, performance-based awards and service-based awards.

The market-indexed LTI Units vest over the service period of the award based on the percentile ranking of the Company in terms of total return to stockholders (the "Total Return") per share of common stock relative to the Total Return of a group of peer REITs, as measured at the end of the measurement period. The 2026 performance-based LTI Units are all market-indexed awards.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company granted the following LTI Units:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Grant Date** | **Units** | **Type** | **Fair Value per LTI Unit** | **Vest Date** |

*Other Transactions and Events:*

The Company declared a cash dividend of $0.17 per share of its common stock for each quarter of 2025. On February 12, 2026, the Company announced a first quarter cash dividend of $0.17 per share of its common stock, which was paid on March 30, 2026 to stockholders of record on March 16, 2026. On May 4, 2026, the Company announced a second quarter cash dividend of $0.17 per share of its common stock, which will be paid on June 29, 2026 to stockholders of record on June 15, 2026. The dividend amount will be reviewed by the Board on a quarterly basis.

In connection with the commencement of an "at the market" offering program on November 12, 2024, which is referred to as the "2024 ATM Program," the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement with certain sales agents pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $500.0 million. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Company sold 3.1 million shares of common stock for approximately $53.9 million of net proceeds through the 2024 ATM Program at a weighted average price of $18.04. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company sold 3.5 million shares of common stock for approximately $65.5 million of net proceeds through the 2024 ATM Program at a weighted average price of $19.00. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had approximately $307.3 million of gross sales of its common stock available under the 2024 ATM Program. Subsequent to quarter end, the Company sold 0.9 million shares of common stock for approximately $18.3 million of net proceeds through the 2024 ATM Program at a weighted average price of $19.99 per share.

See "—Liquidity and Capital Resources" for a further discussion of the Company's anticipated liquidity needs, and the measures taken by the Company to meet those needs.

*Inflation:*

Most of the leases at the Centers have rent adjustments periodically throughout the lease term. These rent increases are either in fixed increments or based on using an annual multiple of increases in the Consumer Price Index. In addition, the routine expiration of leases for spaces 10,000 square feet and under each year enables the Company to replace existing leases with new leases at higher base rents if the rents of the existing leases are below the then existing market rate. The Company has generally entered into leases that require tenants to pay a stated amount for operating expenses, generally excluding property taxes, regardless of the expenses actually incurred at any Center, which places the burden of cost control on the Company. Additionally, most leases require the tenants to pay their pro rata share of property taxes and utilities. Inflation had a negative impact on the Company's costs in 2025 and is expected to have a negative impact on the Company's costs in 2026.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

The preparation of financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Some of these estimates and assumptions include judgments on revenue recognition, estimates for common area maintenance and real estate tax accruals, provisions for uncollectible accounts, impairment of long-lived assets, the allocation of purchase price between tangible and intangible assets, capitalization of costs and fair value measurements. The Company's significant accounting policies and estimates are described in more detail in Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Company's Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. However, the following policies are deemed to be critical:

*Acquisitions:*

Upon the acquisition of real estate properties, the Company evaluates whether the acquisition is a business combination or asset acquisition. For both business combinations and asset acquisitions, the Company allocates the purchase price of properties to acquired tangible assets and intangible assets and liabilities. For asset acquisitions, the Company capitalizes transaction costs and allocates the purchase price using a relative fair value method allocating all accumulated costs. For business combinations, the Company expenses transaction costs incurred and allocates purchase price based on the estimated fair value of each separately identified asset and liability. The Company allocates the estimated fair value of acquisitions to land, building, tenant improvements and identified intangible assets and liabilities, based on their estimated fair values. In addition, any assumed mortgage notes payable are recorded at their estimated fair values. The estimated fair value of the land and buildings is determined utilizing an "as if vacant" methodology. Tenant improvements represent the tangible assets associated with the existing leases valued on a fair value basis at the acquisition date prorated over the remaining lease terms. The tenant improvements are classified as an asset under property and are depreciated over the remaining lease terms. Identifiable intangible assets and liabilities relate to the value of in-place operating leases which come in three forms: (i) leasing commissions and legal costs, which represent the value associated with "cost avoidance" of acquiring in-place leases, such as lease commissions paid under terms generally experienced in the Company's markets; (ii) value of in-place leases, which represents the estimated loss of revenue and of costs incurred for the period required to lease the "assumed vacant" property to the occupancy level when purchased; and (iii) above or below-market value of in-place leases, which represents the difference between the contractual rents and market rents at the time of the acquisition, discounted for tenant credit risks. Leasing commissions and legal costs are recorded in deferred charges and other assets and are amortized over the remaining lease terms. The value of in-place leases are recorded in deferred charges and other assets and amortized over the remaining lease terms plus any below-market fixed rate renewal options. Above or below-market leases are classified in deferred charges and other assets or in other accrued liabilities, depending on whether the contractual terms are above or below-market, and the asset or liability is amortized to minimum rents over the remaining terms of the leases. The remaining lease terms of below-market leases may include certain below-market fixed-rate renewal periods. In considering whether or not a lessee will execute a below-market fixed-rate lease renewal option, the Company evaluates economic factors and certain qualitative factors at the time of acquisition such as tenant mix in the Center, the Company's relationship with the tenant and the availability of competing tenant space.

Remeasurement gains are recognized when the Company becomes the primary beneficiary of an existing equity method investment that is a variable interest entity to the extent that the fair value of the existing equity investment exceeds the carrying value of the investment, and remeasurement losses are recognized to the extent the carrying value of the investment exceeds the fair value. The fair value is determined based on a discounted cash flow model, with the significant unobservable inputs including discount rate, terminal capitalization rate and market rents.

*Asset Impairment:*

The Company assesses whether an indicator of impairment in the value of its properties exists by considering expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition and other economic factors. Such factors include projected rental revenue, operating costs and capital expenditures as well as capitalization rates and estimated holding periods. The Company generally holds and operates its properties long-term, which decreases the likelihood of their carrying values not being recoverable. Changes in events or changes in circumstances may alter the expected hold period of an asset or asset group, which may result in an impairment loss and such loss could be material to the Company's financial condition or operating performance. If the carrying value of the property exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the excess of carrying value over its estimated fair value. Properties classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8e0751c6ee5a4991b44dc40f59916fdd_7)</u>

The estimated fair value of a property is typically determined through a discounted cash flow analysis or based upon a contracted sales price. The discounted cash flow method includes significant unobservable inputs including the discount rate, terminal capitalization rate and market rents. Cash flow projections and rates are subject to management's judgment and changes in those assumptions could impact the estimation of fair value.

The Company's investments in unconsolidated joint ventures apply the same accounting model for property level impairment as described above. Further, the Company reviews its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures for a series of operating losses and other factors that may indicate that a decrease in the value of its investments has occurred which is other-than-temporary. The investment in each unconsolidated joint venture is evaluated periodically, and as deemed necessary, for recoverability and valuation declines that are other-than-temporary. The Company records any such impairment up to the extent of its investment.

*Fair Value of Financial Instruments:*

The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity and the reporting entity's own assumptions about market participant assumptions.

Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which is typically based on an entity's own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

The Company calculates the fair value of financial instruments and includes this additional information in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of those financial instruments. When the fair value reasonably approximates the carrying value, no additional disclosure is made.

**Results of Operations**

Many of the variations in the results of operations, discussed below, occurred because of the transactions affecting the Company's properties described in Management's Overview and Summary above, including those related to the Redevelopment Properties, the Acquisition Property, the JV Transition Centers and the Disposition Properties (each as defined below).

For purposes of the discussion below, the Company defines "Same Centers" as those Centers that are substantially complete and in operation for the entirety of both periods of the comparison. Non-Same Centers for comparison purposes includes a recently acquired property ("Acquisition Property"), those Centers or properties that are going through a substantial redevelopment often resulting in the closing of a portion of the Center ("Redevelopment Properties"), those properties that have recently transitioned to or from equity method joint ventures to or from consolidated assets ("JV Transition Centers") and properties that have been disposed of ("Disposition Properties"). The Company moves a Center in and out of Same Centers based on whether the Center is substantially complete and in operation for the entirety of both periods of the comparison. Accordingly, the Same Centers consist of all Consolidated Centers, excluding the Redevelopment Properties, the JV Transition Centers, Santa Monica Place and the Disposition Properties, for the periods of comparison. Santa Monica Place is excluded from Same Centers due to the Company's default on the non-recourse loan on April 9, 2024 and the completion of the transition of the property to a receiver during the first quarter of 2025. The Company is still the owner of record of the property.

For the comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2026 to the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Acquisition Property is Crabtree Mall (See "Acquisitions" in Management's Overview and Summary). The Disposition Properties are Wilton Mall, Southpark Mall, Lakewood Center, Valley Mall, a former department store parcel in Petaluma, California and the outparcel sales at Los Cerritos Mall in Los Cerritos, California and Washington Square in Portland, Oregon (See "Dispositions" in Management's Overview and Summary). For the comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2026 to the three months ended March 31, 2025, there are no Redevelopment Properties or JV Transition Centers.

Unconsolidated joint ventures are reflected using the equity method of accounting. The Company's pro rata share of the results from these Centers is reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as equity in loss of unconsolidated joint ventures.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8e0751c6ee5a4991b44dc40f59916fdd_7)</u>

The Company considers tenant annual sales and occupancy rates (excluding large retail stores or "Anchors") to be key performance indicators of the Company's internal growth.

During the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2026, comparable tenant sales for spaces less than 10,000 square feet across the portfolio increased by 3.8% relative to the first quarter of 2025. The leased occupancy rate of 93.4% at March 31, 2026 represented a 0.8% increase from 92.6% at March 31, 2025 and a 0.6% sequential decrease compared to the 94.0% occupancy rate at December 31, 2025.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company has executed renewal leases or commitments on 90% of its square footage expiring in 2026, that is anticipated to renew, which leases are expected to commence throughout 2026 and 2027 and another 9% of such expiring space is in the letter of intent stage. Excluding those leases, the remaining leases expiring in 2026, which represent approximately 16,000 square feet of the Centers, are in the prospecting stage.

The Company has entered into 169 leases for new stores totaling approximately 1.0 million square feet that have opened or are planned for opening in 2026, and another 56 leases for new stores totaling approximately 1.5 million square feet opening after 2026. In total, through 2028, new store leases are expected to produce total gross revenue of approximately $116 million (at the Company's pro rata share) in excess of the revenue generated in 2024 from prior uses in those same spaces. This new store leasing pipeline represents a cumulative and incremental estimate and includes open stores, leases signed not yet open, and leases in documentation that will or have commenced from 2024 through 2028. While there may be additional new space openings in 2026, any such leases are not yet executed.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, the Company signed 93 new leases and 176 renewal leases comprising approximately 1.6 million square feet of GLA. The average tenant allowance was $49.65 per square foot.

**Outlook**

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company unveiled the Path Forward Plan which is a multi-pronged strategy to improve the Company's balance sheet, while also making inward-facing enhancements to both bolster company culture and improve key business processes to gain operating efficiencies. Essential goals of the Path Forward Plan include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Deleverage the capital structure, with a focus on reducing the Company's Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA leverage ratio over the next two to three years;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Invest in and fortify the Company's key assets in the portfolio;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Proactively consolidate selected joint venture assets over time that are core to the Company's overall strategy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Deliver a post-deleveraging Funds From Operations ("FFO") launch point goal over the next two to three years;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Achieve outstanding operational results through rigorous internal process improvements; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Position the Company to take an offensive stance on strategic acquisitions, reinvestment and targeted development.

The Company may achieve these goals through a variety of methods and the timing, extent and impact of any transactions that the Company has or will undertake while implementing the Path Forward Plan may vary and evolve. In order to deleverage its capital structure, the Company may pursue asset dispositions and acquisitions, experience organic growth in EBITDA as tenants in its lease pipeline open for business, be selective about undertaking new development and redevelopment projects, and/or issue common stock. Asset sales will focus on whether a property is core to the Company's strategy and may include defaulting on certain mortgage debts on the Company's properties and giving possession of such secured properties to the lender. Additionally, as part of the Path Forward Plan, the Company is targeting for disposition certain outparcels, freestanding retail assets, non-enclosed mall assets and vacant land. The Company also began acquiring properties in June 2025 with the acquisition of Crabtree Mall and the recent acquisition of Annapolis Mall, and will continue to look for other strategic acquisition opportunities that would complement the Company's portfolio.

As a further update to the Company's Path Forward Plan and to provide a strategic disposition plan that refines the portfolio and creates a more focused platform for growth, the Company identified the following Centers as the go-forward portfolio Centers as of March 31, 2026 (the "Go-Forward Portfolio Centers"). The Go-Forward Portfolio Centers are subject to change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Further, the Company has a long-term four-pronged business strategy that focuses on the acquisition, leasing and management, redevelopment and development of regional retail centers. Although some of the key performance indicators at the Centers continued to improve during 2025 and the first quarter of 2026, operating results in 2026 have been and are expected to continue to be negatively impacted by certain external factors, including sustained inflation, tariffs and elevated interest rates, as well as the impact from the bankruptcies of Express, Forever 21 and Claire's, and resulting store closures, and any future tenant bankruptcies.

Traffic levels at the Company's Centers for the first quarter of 2026 increased by 0.5% from 2025 levels for the same time period. Portfolio tenant sales per square foot from spaces less than 10,000 square feet for the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2026 were $899 compared to $881 for the year ended December 31, 2025. Comparable tenant sales from spaces less than 10,000 square feet across the portfolio for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 increased by 3.8% compared to the same period in 2025.

During the first quarter of 2026, the Company signed 269 leases for approximately 1.61 million square feet, compared to 295 leases and 1.57 million square feet leased during the first quarter of 2025, representing a 2.5% increase in the amount of square footage leased on a comparable center basis, excluding a 900,000 square foot multi-location anchor renewal package executed in the prior-year period.

The Company believes that diversity of use within its tenant base has been, and will continue to be, a prominent internal growth catalyst at its Centers going forward, as new uses enhance the productivity and diversity of the tenant mix and have the potential to significantly increase customer traffic at the applicable Centers. During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, the Company signed leases for new stores with new-to-Macerich portfolio uses for 80,000 square feet, with another 359,000 square feet of such new-to-Macerich portfolio leases currently in negotiation as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

As of March 31, 2026, the leased occupancy rate was 93.4%, a 0.8% increase compared to the leased occupancy rate at March 31, 2025 of 92.6% and a 0.6% sequential decrease compared to the 94.0% occupancy rate at December 31, 2025.

Many of the Company's leases contain co-tenancy clauses. Certain Anchor or small tenant closures have become vacant, and co-tenancy clauses within certain leases may be triggered as a result. The Company does not anticipate that the negative impact of such clauses on lease revenue will be significant.

The pace of bankruptcy filings involving the Company's tenants has remained steady in recent years but is substantially lower than 2021 levels. For the year ended December 31, 2025, there were eight bankruptcy filings involving the Company's tenants, including the bankruptcies of Forever 21 and Claire's, totaling 67 leases and representing approximately 873,000 square feet of leased space and approximately $12.9 million of annual leasing revenue at the Company's share. Year-to-date 2026, there were four bankruptcy filings involving the Company's tenants, including Saks Global LLC, totaling 14 leases and representing approximately 182,000 square feet of leased space and approximately $3.1 million of annual leasing revenue at the

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8e0751c6ee5a4991b44dc40f59916fdd_7)</u>

Company's share. Based on current information and market data, the Company expects that the pace of bankruptcy filings in 2026 will be lower than the average bankruptcy rate over the last decade but the Company will continue to monitor the impact of tariffs and other economic conditions on the Company's tenants.

During 2026, the Company expects to generate positive cash flow after recurring operating capital expenditures, leasing capital expenditures and payment of dividends. This assumption does not include any potential capital generated from dispositions, refinancings or issuances of common stock. To the extent available, any excess cash flow may be used to fund the Company's development and redevelopment pipeline, acquisitions and/or de-lever the Company's balance sheet.

The Company continues to actively address its near-term, non-recourse loan maturities, with five completed transactions from the beginning of 2025 through the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, totaling approximately $954.7 million, or approximately $829.5 million at the Company's pro rata share. For additional information on the Company's financing transactions in the year ended 2025 through the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, see "Financing Activities" in Management's Overview and Summary.

On April 9, 2024, the Company defaulted on the $300.0 million non-recourse loan on Santa Monica Place and during the first quarter of 2025, completed the transition of the property to a receiver. The Company is still the owner of record of the property.

Interest rates have increased, and may continue to increase, the cost of the Company's borrowings due to its outstanding floating-rate debt and have led, and may continue to lead, to higher interest rates on new fixed-rate debt. While interest rates have begun to decrease, they remain elevated and the Company expects to incur increased interest expense from the refinancing or extension of loans that may currently carry below-market interest rates. In certain cases, the Company has limited, and may continue to limit, its exposure to interest rate fluctuations related to a portion of its floating-rate debt by using interest rate cap and swap agreements. Such agreements, subject to current market conditions, allow the Company to replace floating-rate debt with fixed-rate debt in order to achieve its desired ratio of floating-rate to fixed-rate debt. However, any interest rate cap or swap agreements that the Company enters into may not be effective in reducing its exposure to interest rate changes.

**Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025** 

*Revenues:*

Leasing revenue decreased by $9.7 million, or 4.1%, from 2025 to 2026. The decrease in leasing revenue is attributed to decreases of $16.4 million from the Disposition Properties, $2.3 million from the Same Centers and $2.2 million from Santa Monica Place offset in part by $11.2 million from the Acquisition Property. Leasing revenue includes the amortization of above and below-market leases, the amortization of straight-line rents, lease termination income, percentage rent and the recovery of bad debts. The amortization of above and below-market leases increased from $1.0 million in 2025 to $1.4 million in 2026. Straight-line rents increased from $(0.3) million in 2025 to $1.3 million in 2026. Lease termination income decreased from $4.9 million in 2025 to $0.1 million in 2026. Percentage rent increased from $4.3 million in 2025 to $5.9 million in 2026. Provisions for bad debts decreased from $1.6 million in 2025 to $1.2 million in 2026.

Management Companies' revenue increased 33.0% from $4.9 million in 2025 to $6.5 million in 2026 primarily due to an increase in development fees.

*Shopping Center and Operating Expenses:*

Shopping center and operating expenses decreased $1.9 million, or 2.2%, from 2025 to 2026. The decrease in shopping center and operating expenses is attributed to a decrease of $6.3 million from the Disposition Properties offset in part by increases of $3.0 million from the Acquisition Property, $1.0 million from Santa Monica Place and $0.4 million from the Same Centers.

*Leasing Expenses:*

Leasing expenses increased from $11.2 million in 2025 to $13.8 million in 2026 due primarily to an increase in compensation expense.

*Management Companies' Operating Expenses:*

Management Companies' operating expenses increased $1.6 million from 2025 to 2026 due primarily to an increase in compensation expense.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i8e0751c6ee5a4991b44dc40f59916fdd_7)</u>

*Depreciation and Amortization:*

Depreciation and amortization decreased $9.5 million from 2025 to 2026. The decrease in depreciation and amortization is attributed to decreases of $8.3 million from the Same Centers, $6.8 million from the Disposition Properties and $0.7 million from Santa Monica Place offset in part by an increase of $6.3 million from the Acquisition Property.

*Interest Expense:*

Interest expense decreased $1.6 million from 2025 to 2026. The decrease in interest expense is attributed to decreases of $6.1 million from the Disposition Properties, $1.4 million from lower outstanding balances on the Company's revolving credit facility and $0.2 million from Santa Monica Place offset in part by increases of $3.5 million from the Same Centers and $2.6 million from the Acquisition Property.

*Equity in Loss of Unconsolidated Joint Ventures:*

Equity in loss of unconsolidated joint ventures increased $9.1 million from 2025 to 2026. The increase in equity in loss of unconsolidated joint ventures is primarily due to income received from legal claims settlements in 2025 that did not recur in 2026.

*Gain (Loss) on Sale or Write Down of Assets, net:*

Gain (loss) on sale or write down of assets, net increased $20.8 million from 2025 to 2026. The increase is primarily due to the gains recognized in 2026 of $10.1 million relating to the sale of an outparcel at Washington Square offset in part by $3.1 million relating to the write off of development costs in 2026 and impairment losses in 2025 of $13.3 million recognized as a result of the reduction in the estimated holding period of certain properties.

*Net Loss:*

Net loss decreased $14.3 million from 2025 to 2026. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to the gains recognized in 2026 of $10.1 million relating to the sale of an outparcel at Washington Square along with the other variances noted above.

*Funds From Operations ("FFO"):*

Primarily as a result of the factors mentioned above, FFO attributable to common stockholders and unit holders, as adjusted,—diluted, increased 2.9% from $89.8 million in 2025 to $92.4 million in 2026. For a reconciliation of net loss attributable to the Company, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to FFO attributable to common stockholders and unit holders—diluted, and FFO attributable to common stockholders and unit holders, as adjusted,diluted, see "Funds From Operations ("FFO")" below.

*Operating Activities:*

Cash provided by operating activities decreased $11.1 million from 2025 to 2026. The decrease is primarily due to the changes in assets and liabilities and the results, as discussed above.

*Investing Activities:*

Cash used in investing activities decreased $28.3 million from 2025 to 2026. The decrease in cash used in investing activities is primarily attributed to decreases in contributions to unconsolidated joint ventures of $82.7 million and development, redevelopment and renovation of $4.1 million offset in part by decreases of $13.6 million from distribution from unconsolidated joint ventures and $11.8 million from proceeds from sale of assets and increases of $21.8 million in property improvements and $10 million related to a deposit on acquisition of property. The decrease in contributions to unconsolidated joint ventures is primarily due to contributions to Flatiron Crossing in 2025 to payoff the remaining loan balance (See "Financing Activities" in Management's Overview and Summary).

*Financing Activities:*

Cash (used in) provided by financing activities increased $286.4 million from 2025 to 2026. The increase in cash (used in) provided by financing activities is primarily due to a decrease in proceeds from mortgages, bank and other notes payable of $240.0 million and increases in payments on mortgages, bank and other notes payable of $99.4 million and deferred financing costs of $13.0 million offset in part by an increase in proceeds from stock offering of $61.0 million and decrease in payments of finance leases of $4.4 million.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

The Company anticipates meeting its liquidity needs for its operating expenses, debt service and dividend requirements for the next twelve months and beyond through cash generated from operations, distributions from unconsolidated joint ventures, working capital reserves and/or borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

Additionally, the Company is focused on implementing the Path Forward Plan, including its goal to reduce its Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA leverage ratio to a lower level over the next two to three years. The Company may achieve this goal, and other goals set in connection with the Path Forward Plan, through a variety of methods and the timing, extent and impact of any transactions that the Company has or will undertake while implementing the Path Forward Plan may vary and evolve. In order to deleverage its capital structure, the Company may pursue asset dispositions and acquisitions, experience organic growth in EBITDA as tenants in its lease pipeline open for business, be selective about undertaking new development and redevelopment projects, and/or issue common stock. Asset sales will focus on whether a property is core to the Company's strategy and may include defaulting on certain mortgage debts on the Company's properties and giving possession of such secured properties to the lender.

*Uses of Capital*

The following tables summarize capital expenditures incurred at the Centers (at the Company's pro rata share):

---

The Company expects amounts to be incurred during the next twelve months for tenant allowances and deferred leasing charges to be approximately $75.0 million to $100.0 million. The Company expects to incur approximately $275.0 million to $325.0 million during the next twelve months for development, redevelopment, expansion and renovations, which includes Scottsdale Fashion Square, Green Acres Mall and FlatIron Crossing (See "Redevelopment and Development Activities" in Management's Overview and Summary). Capital for these expenditures, developments and/or redevelopments has been, and is expected to continue to be, obtained from a combination of cash on hand, cash generated from operations, asset sales, debt or equity financings, which may include borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility and sales of common stock, from property financings and construction loans, each to the extent available. The Company will be very selective in undertaking any future development or redevelopment projects and may choose to pause existing projects if the Company believes they are no longer economically viable.

*Sources of Capital*

The Company has also generated liquidity in the past, and may continue to do so in the future, through equity offerings and issuances, property refinancings, joint venture transactions and the sale of non-core assets. Asset sales will focus on whether a property is core to the Company's strategy and may include defaulting on certain mortgage debts on the Company's properties and giving possession of such secured properties to the lender. For example, since implementing the Path Forward Plan in the second quarter of 2024, the Company has sold joint venture interests in properties and consolidated properties as described in "—Dispositions" in Management's Overview and Summary. The Company used its share of proceeds from these transactions to pay down its revolving credit facility and other debt obligations. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company and/or certain joint venture partners sold various land parcels in separate

transactions for net aggregate proceeds of $12.4 million and $20.1 million (at the Company's share), respectively, which the Company used to pay down debt and for other general corporate purposes.

Furthermore, the Company has filed a shelf registration statement, which registered an unspecified amount of common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, debt securities, warrants, rights, stock purchase contracts and units that may be sold from time to time by the Company.

On November 12, 2024, the Company registered an "at the market" offering program, pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $500.0 million, in amounts and at times to be determined by the Company. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company sold 3.5 million shares of common stock for approximately $65.5 million of net proceeds through the 2024 ATM Program at a weighted average price of $19.00. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had approximately $307.3 million of gross sales of its common stock available under the 2024 ATM Program. Subsequent to quarter end, the Company sold 0.9 million shares of common stock for approximately $18.3 million of net proceeds through the 2024 ATM Program at a weighted average price of $19.99 per share.

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to issuances made under the 2024 ATM Program as of March 31, 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The table does not reflect 0.3 million shares sold on March 31, 2026 that did not settle until April 1, 2026 (See Note 13-Stockholders' Equity).

The capital and credit markets can fluctuate and, at times, limit access to debt and equity financing for companies. The Company has been able to access capital; however, there is no assurance the Company will be able to do so in future periods or on similar terms and conditions. Many factors impact the Company's ability to access capital, such as its overall debt level, interest rates, interest coverage ratios and prevailing market conditions, including periods of economic slowdown or recession.

For example, the credit markets have experienced and may continue to experience a slowdown stemming from broader market issues pertaining to various factors, including among others, the health of regional banks, prevailing market sentiment regarding various commercial real estate sectors and interest rate increases imposed by the Federal Reserve. While interest rates have begun to decrease, they remain elevated and the Company expects to incur increased interest expense from the refinancing or extension of loans that may carry below-market interest rates. In addition, increases in the Company's proportion of floating rate debt will cause it to be subject to interest rate fluctuations in the future.

The Company's total outstanding loan indebtedness, which includes mortgages and other notes payable, at March 31, 2026 was $6.45 billion (consisting of $4.93 billion of consolidated debt, less $0.03 billion of noncontrolling interests, plus $1.55 billion of its pro rata share of unconsolidated joint venture debt). The majority of the Company's debt consists of fixed-rate conventional mortgage notes collateralized by individual properties. The Company expects that all of the maturities during the next twelve months will be refinanced, restructured, extended and/or paid off from the Company's revolving credit facility or cash on hand, with the exception of Santa Monica Place and Twenty Ninth Street (See "—Financing Activities" in Management's Overview and Summary). The $76.5 million mortgage loan (at the Company's pro rata share) on Twenty Ninth Street is in default as of February 6, 2026. The Company's joint venture is in negotiations with the lender on the terms of the loan.

The Company believes that the pro rata debt provides useful information to investors regarding its financial condition because it includes the Company's share of debt from unconsolidated joint ventures and, for consolidated debt, excludes the Company's partners' share from consolidated joint ventures, in each case presented on the same basis. The Company has several significant joint ventures and presenting its pro rata share of debt in this manner can help investors better understand the Company's financial condition after taking into account the Company's economic interest in these joint ventures. The Company's pro rata share of debt should not be considered as a substitute for the Company's total consolidated debt determined in accordance with GAAP or any other GAAP financial measures and should only be considered together with and as a supplement to the Company's financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The Company accounts for its investments in joint ventures that it does not have a controlling interest or is not the primary beneficiary using the equity method of accounting and those investments are reflected on the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.

Additionally, as of March 31, 2026, the Company was contingently liable for $1.0 million in letters of credit guaranteeing performance by the Company of certain obligations relating to the Centers. As of March 31, 2026, $0.4 million of these letters of credit were secured by restricted cash. The Company does not believe that these letters of credit will result in a liability to the Company.

The Company continues to actively address its near-term, non-recourse loan maturities, with five completed transactions since the beginning of 2025 through the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, totaling approximately $954.7 million, or approximately $829.5 million at the Company's pro rata share. For additional information on the Company's financing transactions in the year ended 2025 through the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, see "Financing Activities" in Management's Overview and Summary.

On February 24, 2026, the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into an amended and restated credit agreement, which amended and restated their prior credit agreement, and provides for an aggregate $900.0 million revolving credit facility that matures on March 1, 2029, with a one-year extension option. The revolving credit facility can be expanded up to $1.1 billion, subject to receipt of lender commitments and other conditions.

All obligations under the revolving credit facility are guaranteed unconditionally by the Company and certain subsidiary guarantors. The new revolving credit facility bears interest, at the Operating Partnership's option, at either the base rate (as defined in the credit agreement) or term SOFR (as defined in the credit agreement) plus, in both cases, an applicable margin. The current applicable margin depends on the Company's overall debt yield and ranges from 0.80% to 2.20% over the selected index rate. Upon the achievement of certain performance thresholds, the applicable margin will depend on the Company's overall net debt to EBITDA ratio and will be in a range of 0.35% to 1.65% over the selected index rate. As of March 31, 2026, the applicable margin for base rate loans was 0.90% per annum and the applicable margin for term SOFR loans was 1.90% per annum.

As of March 31, 2026, the borrowing rate was SOFR plus a spread of 1.90%. As of March 31, 2026, borrowings under the revolving credit facility were $100.0 million less unamortized deferred finance costs of $18.0 million for the revolving credit facility at a total effective interest rate of 6.16%. As of March 31, 2026, the Company's availability under the revolving credit facility for additional borrowings was $799.4 million.

Cash dividends and distributions for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $49.0 million (including distributions from consolidated joint ventures of $0.6 million), which were funded by operations.

At March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with all applicable loan covenants under its agreements, with the exception of Santa Monica Place and Twenty Ninth Street, as discussed above.

At March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $182.0 million.

**Funds From Operations ("FFO")**

The Company uses FFO in addition to net loss to report its operating and financial results and considers FFO and FFO —diluted as supplemental measures for the real estate industry and a supplement to GAAP measures. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of properties, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, impairment write-downs of real estate and write-downs of investments in an affiliate where the write-downs have been driven by a decrease in the value of real estate held by the affiliate and after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.

The Company also presents FFO, as adjusted. The Company calculates FFO, as adjusted, by excluding from FFO the impact of properties in receivership, default interest expense and gain or loss on non-real estate investments.

FFO and FFO on a diluted basis are useful to investors in comparing operating and financial results between periods. This is especially true since FFO excludes real estate depreciation and amortization, as the Company believes real estate values fluctuate based on market conditions rather than depreciating in value ratably on a straight-line basis over time. The Company believes that such a presentation also provides investors with a more meaningful measure of its operating results in comparison to the operating results of other REITs. In addition, the Company believes that FFO, as adjusted, which excludes the impact associated with properties in receivership, default interest expense and impact of non-cash changes in the market value of non-real estate investments provides useful supplemental information regarding the Company's performance as it shows a more meaningful and consistent comparison of the Company's operating performance and allows investors to more easily compare the Company's results. Santa Monica Place has been under control of a court appointed receiver since March 18, 2025 and the Company has excluded the FFO impact from this property for all periods presented. Effective (i) April 9, 2024, default interest expense has been accrued on the non-recourse loan on Santa Monica Place; (ii) November 6, 2025 through February 5, 2026, default interest expense was incurred on the non-recourse loan at South Plains Mall; and (iii) February 6, 2026, default interest expense has been accrued on the non-recourse loan at Twenty Ninth Street. The Company is required under GAAP to accrue default interest expense, which is expected to be reversed or paid, once a loan is modified or once title to the mortgaged loan collateral is transferred. The Company believes that default interest on non-recourse loans, and any related reversal thereof should be excluded. The Company holds certain non-real estate investments that are subject to mark to market changes every quarter. These investments are not core to the Company's business, and the changes to market value and the related gain or loss are entirely non-cash in nature. As a result, the Company believes that the gain or loss on non-real estate investments should be excluded.

The Company further believes that FFO and FFO, as adjusted, does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as defined by GAAP, and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs. The Company also cautions that FFO and FFO as adjusted, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other REITs.

Management compensates for the limitations of FFO and FFO, as adjusted, by providing investors with financial statements prepared according to GAAP, along with this detailed discussion of FFO and FFO, as adjusted, and a reconciliation of net loss to FFO and FFO, as adjusted, diluted. Management believes that to further understand the Company's performance, FFO and FFO, as adjusted, should be compared with the Company's reported net loss and considered in addition to cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The following reconciles net loss attributable to the Company to FFO attributable to common stockholders and unit holders—basic and diluted and FFO, as adjusted, attributable to common stockholders and unit holders—basic and diluted, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 (dollars and shares in thousands):

**Net Operating Income – Go-Forward Portfolio Centers ("NOI – Go-Forward Portfolio Centers")**

The Company presents NOI – Go-Forward Portfolio Centers because the Company believes it is useful for investors to evaluate the operating performance of comparable centers. NOI – Go-Forward Portfolio Centers is calculated using earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership, extraordinary items, loss (gain) on remeasurement, sale or write down of assets, loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt and preferred dividends and includes joint ventures at their pro rata share and eliminating the impact of the Management Companies' revenues and operating expenses, leasing expenses (including joint ventures at pro rata), the Company's REIT general and administrative expenses, corporate and other income and expenses and the straight-line and above/below market adjustments to minimum rents and subtracting out NOI from non-Go-Forward Portfolio Centers. The Company also presents NOI – Go-Forward Portfolio Centers, excluding lease termination income, as the Company believes that it is useful for investors to evaluate operating performance without the impact of lease termination income.

Management compensates for the limitations of NOI – Go-Forward Portfolio Centers by providing investors with financial statements prepared according to GAAP, along with this detailed discussion of NOI – Go-Forward Portfolio Centers and a reconciliation of net loss attributable to the Company to NOI – All Centers and NOI – Go-Forward Portfolio Centers. Management believes that to further understand the Company's performance, NOI – All Centers and NOI – Go-Forward Portfolio Centers should be compared with the Company's reported net income (loss), as presented in the Company's consolidated financial statements.

**Item 3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk**

The Company's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The Company has managed and will continue to manage interest rate risk by (1) maintaining a ratio of fixed rate, long-term debt to total debt such that floating rate exposure is kept at an acceptable level, (2) reducing interest rate exposure on certain long-term floating rate debt through the use of interest rate caps and/or swaps with matching maturities where appropriate, (3) using treasury rate locks where appropriate to fix rates on anticipated debt transactions, and (4) taking advantage of favorable market conditions for long-term debt and/or equity.

The following table sets forth information as of March 31, 2026 concerning the Company's long-term debt obligations, including principal cash flows by scheduled maturity, weighted average interest rates and estimated fair value (dollars in thousands):

_______________________________________________________________________________

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)On April 7, 2026, the Company's joint venture replaced the existing $131.2 million loan on Deptford Mall with a new $115.0 million, five year fixed rate loan (See Note 21—Subsequent Events in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

The Consolidated Centers' total fixed rate debt at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $4.4 billion and $4.7 billion, respectively. The average interest rate on the fixed rate debt at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was 4.61% and 4.56%, respectively. The Consolidated Centers' total floating rate debt at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $559.1 million and $459.1 million, respectively. The average interest rate on the floating rate debt at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was 5.55% and 5.62%, respectively.

The Company's pro rata share of the Unconsolidated Joint Venture Centers' fixed rate debt at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $1.5 billion. The average interest rate on the fixed rate debt at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was 5.30% and 5.29%, respectively. The Company's pro rata share of the Unconsolidated Joint Venture Centers' floating rate debt at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $12.0 million. The average interest rate on the floating rate debt at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was 6.17% and 6.28%, respectively.

The Company uses derivative financial instruments in the normal course of business to manage or hedge interest rate risk and records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Interest rate cap agreements offer protection against floating rates on the notional amount from exceeding the rates noted in the above schedule, and interest rate swap agreements effectively replace a floating rate on the notional amount with a fixed rate as noted above. As of March 31, 2026, the Company has interest rate cap agreements in place (See Note 4—Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures and Note 5—Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities in the Company's Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The respective loans require an interest rate cap agreement to be in place at all times, which limits how high the prevailing floating loan rate index (i.e., SOFR)

------

for the loans can rise. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, SOFR for each of these loans did not exceed the strike interest rate within the required interest rate cap agreements.

In addition, the Company has assessed the market risk for its floating rate debt and believes that a 1% increase in interest rates would decrease future earnings and cash flows by approximately $5.7 million per year based on $571.1 million of floating rate debt outstanding at March 31, 2026.

The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated based on a present value model utilizing interest rates that reflect the risks associated with long-term debt of similar risk and duration. In addition, the method of computing fair value for mortgage notes payable included a credit value adjustment based on the estimated value of the property that serves as collateral for the underlying debt (See Note 10—Mortgage Notes Payable and Note 11—Bank and Other Notes Payable in the Company's Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

**Item 4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Controls and Procedures**

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on their evaluation as of March 31, 2026, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (a) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (b) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In addition, there has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
