    • $450.0 million of 4.00% unsecured senior notes, due in 2024. The net proceeds will be used to fund certain eligible green development and redevelopment projects that have received or are expected to receive LEED® Gold or Platinum certification.
    • $450.0 million of 4.70% unsecured senior notes, due in 2030.
  • During 2Q18, we sold 2.5 million shares of common stock under our at-the-market common stock offering program ("ATM program") for $124.46 per share and received net proceeds of $300.8 million. In July 2018, we sold 703,625 shares of common stock under our ATM common stock offering program for $127.91 per share and received net proceeds of $88.7 million. As of July 30, 2018, we had $17.7 million available for future sales under the ATM program. We expect to file a new ATM program in the next few quarters.
  • In April 2018, our unconsolidated real estate joint venture at Menlo Gateway in our Greater Stanford submarket closed a secured note payable with commitments available for borrowing of $157.3 million, for the development of Phase II of the project. The loan matures on May 1, 2035, and bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.53%.

Corporate responsibility and industry leadership

  • Nareit CARE Gold Award Winner
    • 2018 recipient of the Nareit Gold Investor CARE (Communications and Reporting Excellence) Award in the Large Cap Equity REIT category as the best-in-class REIT that delivers transparency, quality, and efficient communications and reporting to the investment community, which is our third Nareit Gold Investor CARE Award (2015, 2016, and 2018).
  • 50% of annual rental revenue is expected from LEED-certified projects upon completion of 10 in-process projects. In April 2018, 100 Binney Street in our Cambridge submarket received LEED Gold® certification, demonstrating our commitment to sustainability.
  • In May 2018, Joel S. Marcus, executive chairman and founder, served as a keynote speaker at the Research Triangle Regional Partnership's 2018 State of the Region. The event highlighted how the region can facilitate economic growth and infrastructural improvements to prepare for more diversified expansion in the future.
  • In June 2018, Joel S. Marcus was appointed to the Emily Krzyzewski Center board of directors. The Center serves as a college access hub propelling academically focused, low-income K-12 students and graduates toward success in college.
  • In June 2018, Circulate San Diego awarded 9880 Campus Point Drive in our University Town Center submarket the Circulate Mobility Certification, formerly known as the MOVE Alliance Certification. The certification is awarded for transit-oriented, smart growth projects in the San Diego region.
  • In June 2018, we released our inaugural 2017 Corporate Responsibility Report that highlights our continual efforts to make a positive, meaningful and purposeful impact on the health, safety and well-being of our tenants, stockholders and employees, as well as on the communities in which we live and work.

Subsequent events

  • During 2Q18, we entered into a contract to sell a land parcel located in Northern Virginia and recognized an impairment of $6.3 million to lower the carrying amount to the estimated fair value less selling costs. We completed the sale, at a price of $6.0 million, in July 2018 with no gain or loss.
  • In July 2018, we repaid $150.0 million of the outstanding balance of one secured construction loan. In connection with the partial repayment of the secured construction loan, we recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $299 thousand related to the write-off of unamortized loan fees.

(1)

We expect to provide total estimated costs and related yields of development and redevelopment projects in the future.

(2)

We acquired a fee simple interest in this office building, which is currently occupied by Pfizer Inc. with a remaining lease term of six years. Upon expiration of the lease, we have the opportunity to increase cash flows through the conversion of office space into office/laboratory space through redevelopment.

Unlevered initial stabilized yields represent initial returns during the Pfizer, Inc. occupancy prior to any future redevelopment activities. We expect to provide total estimated costs and related yields of the development or redevelopment in the future.

On January 1, 2018, we adopted an ASU that requires changes in the fair value of our non-real estate investments to be recognized in net income. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recognized unrealized gains of $72.2 million. These unrealized gains are
included in net income and funds from operations as defined by Nareit ("Nareit FFO"). For net income per share purposes, our Series D preferred stock was not assumed to be converted for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as its assumed conversion was anti-dilutive.
However, for Nareit FFO per share, we assumed the conversion of the Series D preferred stock because its effect was dilutive on a per share basis.

 


We compute funds from operations, as adjusted, excluding unrealized gains or losses on non-real estate investments. As a result, the assumed conversion of our Series D preferred stock was reversed from our Nareit FFO calculation, as its impact was anti-dilutive on a per share basis for our funds from operations, as adjusted.

 


See "Investments" on page 46 of our Supplemental Information for additional information. See definitions for "Funds from operations and funds from operations, as adjusted, attributable to Alexandria's common stockholders" and "Weighted-Average Shares of Common Stock Outstanding – Diluted" on pages 53 and 57, respectively, of our Supplemental Information for additional information.

Calculated in accordance with standards established by the Advisory Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (the "Nareit Board of Governors") in its April 2002 White Paper and related implementation guidance.

Impairment of real estate recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2018, related to one land parcel located in Northern Virginia that was subsequently sold in July 2018 with no gain or loss.

 




The following table presents a reconciliation of net income per share attributable to Alexandria's common stockholders, the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP, including our share of amounts from consolidated and unconsolidated real estate joint ventures, to funds from operations per share attributable to Alexandria's common stockholders – diluted, and funds from operations per share attributable to Alexandria's common stockholders – diluted, as adjusted, for the periods below.
