PEI Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust

Nature of Operations

Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust (“PREIT” or the “Company”) prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the included disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Our unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in PREIT’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. In our opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial statements are included. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

PREIT, a Pennsylvania business trust founded in 1960 and one of the first equity real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) in the United States, has a primary investment focus on retail shopping malls located in the eastern half of the United States, primarily in the Mid-Atlantic region. As of March 31, 2023, our portfolio consists of a total of 23 properties operating in eight states, including 19 shopping malls, three other retail properties and one development property. The property in our portfolio that is classified as under development does not currently have any activity occurring.

We hold our interest in our portfolio of properties through our operating partnership, PREIT Associates, L.P. (“PREIT Associates” or the “Operating Partnership”). We are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and, as of March 31, 2023, we held a 98.7% controlling interest in the Operating Partnership and consolidated it for reporting purposes. The presentation of consolidated financial statements does not itself imply that the assets of any consolidated entity (including any special-purpose entity formed for a particular project) are available to pay the liabilities of any other consolidated entity, or that the liabilities of any consolidated entity (including any special-purpose entity formed for a particular project) are obligations of any other consolidated entity.

Pursuant to the terms of the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership, each of the limited partners has the right to redeem such partner’s units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) for cash or, at our election, we may acquire such OP Units in exchange for our common shares on a fifteen-for-one basis (as a result of our recent reverse share split (described below)), in some cases beginning one year following the respective issue date of the OP Units and in other cases immediately. The current terms of our credit agreements prohibit the Company from acquiring whole share OP Units for cash and, as such, any whole share OP Units presented for redemption will be redeemed for shares. Partial share OP Unit redemptions will be redeemed for cash.

We provide management, leasing and real estate development services through two of our subsidiaries: PREIT Services, LLC (“PREIT Services”), which generally develops and manages properties that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes, and PREIT-RUBIN, Inc. (“PRI”), which generally develops and manages properties that we do not consolidate for financial reporting purposes, including properties owned by partnerships in which we own an interest, and properties that are owned by third parties in which we do not have an interest. PREIT Services and PRI are consolidated. PRI is a taxable REIT subsidiary, as defined by federal tax laws, which means that it is able to offer an expanded menu of services to tenants without jeopardizing our continuing qualification as a REIT under federal tax law.

We evaluate operating results and allocate resources on a property-by-property basis, and do not distinguish or evaluate our consolidated operations on a geographic basis. Due to the nature of our operating properties, which involve retail shopping, dining, entertainment and certain non-traditional tenant operations, we have concluded that our individual properties have similar economic characteristics and meet all other aggregation criteria. Accordingly, we have aggregated our individual properties into one reportable segment. In addition, no single tenant accounts for 10% or more of consolidated revenue, and none of our properties are located outside the United States.

Current Economic and Industry Conditions

Conditions in the economy have caused fluctuations and variations in business and consumer confidence, retail sales, and consumer spending on retail goods, destination dining and entertainment. In particular, current conditions in the economy have caused fluctuations in unemployment rates, and together with supply chain challenges, the current inflationary environment, overall economic uncertainty and the potential for recession, have impacted consumer confidence and spending. The economic factors have had corresponding effects on tenant business performance, prospects, solvency and leasing decisions. Further, traditional mall tenants, including department store anchors and smaller format retail tenants face significant challenges resulting from changing consumer expectations, the convenience of e-commerce shopping, the expansion of outlet centers, and declining mall traffic, among other factors. In recent years, there has been an increased level of tenant bankruptcies and store closings by tenants who have been significantly impacted by these factors. We anticipate that our future business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations, will continue to be materially impacted by these conditions, and more recently by inflationary pressures and substantial increases in interest rates.

Going Concern Considerations

Under the accounting guidance related to the presentation of financial statements, when preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, management has the responsibility to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. As a result of the considerations articulated below, we believe there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

In applying the accounting guidance, management considered our current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and our conditional and unconditional obligations due over the next twelve months after the date that our financial statements were issued. Management specifically considered the two secured credit agreements (collectively, as amended, the “Credit Agreements”), further defined in Note 4, with a maturity date in December 2023 as an event or condition that raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As of March 31, 2023, we had borrowed $305.7 million under the First Lien Term Loan Facility, $667.6 million under the Second Lien Term Loan Facility and $22.5 million under the First Lien Revolving Facility. Our obligations under the Credit Agreements are guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries. The Credit Agreements include several events of default as described in Note 4. Upon the occurrence of an event of default (except with respect to bankruptcy), the lenders may declare all of the obligations in connection with the applicable Credit Agreement (including an amount equal to the outstanding letters of credit under the First Lien Credit Agreement) immediately due and payable and may terminate the lenders’ commitments thereunder. When the borrowings under the Credit Agreements come due and payable due to a default or at maturity in December 2023, the Company would not be able to satisfy its obligations. Management plans to work with the lender groups under the credit facilities and also explore other options to satisfy this obligation, however, any such relief involves performance by third parties and cannot be considered probable of occurring.

Therefore, due to the inherent risks, unknown results and significant uncertainties associated with this matter and the direct correlation to our ability to satisfy our financial obligations that may arise over the applicable twelve month period, we are unable to conclude that it is probable that we will be able to meet our obligations arising within twelve months of the date of issuance of these financial statements under the parameters set forth in this accounting guidance.

Fair Value

Fair value accounting applies to reported balances that are required or permitted to be measured at fair value under existing accounting pronouncements.

Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, these accounting requirements establish a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).

Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have 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 might 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 and are 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. Our 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. We utilize the fair value hierarchy in our accounting for derivatives (Level 2), fixed rate and variable rate debt (Level 2), and in our reviews for impairment of real estate assets (Level 3) and goodwill (Level 3).

Impairment of Assets

Real estate investments and related intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the property might not be recoverable, which is referred to as a “triggering event.” If there is a triggering event in relation to a property to be held and used, we will estimate the aggregate future cash flows, net of estimated capital expenditures, to be

generated by the property, undiscounted and without interest charges. In addition, this estimate may consider a probability weighted cash flow estimation approach when alternative courses of action to recover the carrying amount of a long-lived asset are under consideration or when a range of possible values is estimated.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, there were no new indicators of impairment at any of our properties. No impairment review or assessment of the undiscounted future cash flows was required.

Our review of long-lived assets for impairment utilizes qualitative and quantitative factors in order to estimate fair value. The significant qualitative factors that we use include age and condition of the property, market conditions in the property’s trade area, competition with other shopping centers within the property’s trade area and the creditworthiness and performance of the property’s tenants. The significant quantitative factors that we use include historical and forecasted financial and operating information relating to the property, such as net operating income, estimated holding periods, occupancy statistics, vacancy projections and tenants’ sales levels.

The determination of undiscounted cash flows requires significant estimates by our management, including the expected course of action at the balance sheet date that would lead to such cash flows. Subsequent changes in estimated undiscounted cash flows arising from changes in the anticipated action to be taken with respect to the property could affect the determination of whether an impairment exists, and the effects of such changes could materially affect our net income. If the estimated undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the property, the carrying value is written down to its fair value. Our intent is to hold and operate our properties long-term, which reduces the likelihood that our carrying value is not recoverable. A shortened holding period would increase the likelihood that the carrying value is not recoverable. We will obtain a third party appraisal of the property as deemed necessary.

Assessment of our ability to recover certain lease-related costs must be made when we have a reason to believe that a tenant might not be able to perform under the terms of the lease as originally expected. This requires us to make estimates as to the recoverability of such costs.

An other-than-temporary impairment of an investment in an unconsolidated joint venture is recognized when the carrying value of the investment is not considered recoverable based on evaluation of the severity and duration of the decline in value. To the extent impairment has occurred, the excess carrying value of the asset over its estimated fair value is recorded as a reduction to income.

Assets Classified as Held for Sale

The determination to classify an asset as held for sale requires significant estimates by us about the property and the expected market for the property, which are based on factors including recent sales of comparable properties, recent expressions of interest in the property, financial metrics of the property and the physical condition of the property. We must also determine if it will be possible under those market conditions to sell the property for an acceptable price within one year. When assets are identified by our management as held for sale, we discontinue depreciating the assets and estimate the sales price, net of selling costs, of such assets. We generally consider operating properties to be held for sale when they meet criteria such as whether the sale transaction has been approved by the appropriate level of management and there are no known material contingencies relating to the sale such that the sale is probable and is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year. If the expected net sales price of the asset that has been identified as held for sale is less than the net book value of the asset, the asset is written down to fair value less the cost to sell. Assets and liabilities related to assets classified as held for sale are presented separately in the consolidated balance sheets. If we determine that a property no longer meets the held-for-sale criteria, we reclassify the property’s assets and liabilities to their original locations on the consolidated balance sheet and record depreciation and amortization expense for the period that the property was in held-for-sale status.

As of March 31, 2023, we determined that two of our hotel land parcels, one multifamily land parcel, and one retail property met the criteria to be classified as held for sale. As of December 31, 2022, two of our hotel land parcels, one multifamily land parcel, and two retail properties met the criteria to be classified as held for sale.

Reverse Share Split

On June 16, 2022, the Company effected a one-for-fifteen reverse share split of its common shares. Upon the effectiveness of the reverse share split, every 15 issued and outstanding common shares were combined into one issued and outstanding common share, with no change in par value per share, and the authorized number of common shares was proportionally reduced. Shareholders entitled to fractional shares as a result of the reverse share split were entitled to receive a cash payment in lieu of receiving fractional shares. All common share and per share data in the consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively revised to reflect the reverse share split. Common shares underlying outstanding options, time based and restricted share units, performance based share units and restricted shares were proportionately reduced and the respective exercise prices, if applicable, were proportionately increased. Additionally, the conversion rate of OP Units into common shares was automatically proportionally adjusted from one-for-one to fifteen-for-one. The reverse share split resulted in bringing the Company into compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for maintaining its listing on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), and on July 1, 2022, the Company received notice from the NYSE that it had regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. The Company's common shares continued to trade under the symbol “PEI” and began trading on a split-adjusted basis on June 16, 2022.

On December 15, 2022, the Company received written notice from the NYSE that the Company failed to maintain an average market global capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period of at least $15 million which resulted in NYSE delisting its securities. The securities were transferred to "OTC Pink Market" and later to OTCQB, both operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. As of March 31, 2023, the Company's shares were traded on OTCQB under the symbols PRET (Common Shares), PRETL (Preferred Series B), PRETM (Preferred Series C), and PRETN (Preferred Series D).

New Accounting Developments

The Company considers all new accounting standards for their applicability to the consolidated financial statements. We determined that there were no new accounting standards, issued or effective during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, that have had or are expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Restatement of Previously Reported Financial Statements

There was no impact to the consolidated balance sheet, statement of operations and statement of equity, and notes related to this matter as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
