Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the documents incorporated by reference herein, contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We intend these forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and we are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe harbor provisions, in each case, to the extent applicable. The forward-looking statements are contained principally, but not only, under the captions *“*Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” We caution investors that forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs, expectations of future events and assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our management. When used, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “budget,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “project,” “should,” “will,” and similar expressions that do not relate solely to historical matters are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions and are not guarantees of future performance or occurrences, which may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors that are, in some cases, beyond our control. If one or more of these known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. We caution you that, while forward-looking statements reflect our good-faith beliefs when we make them, they are not guarantees of future performance or occurrences and are impacted by actual events when they occur after we make such statements. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on forward-looking statements, which are based on results, trends and assumptions at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.
Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include the following risks and uncertainties, among others:
-
volatile or adverse economic, capital markets and political conditions, including continued inflation, elevated interest rates, supply chain disruptions, policy changes related to tariffs and prolonged government shutdowns or disruptions, which may directly or indirectly impact us, our current clients and our prospective clients, including their demand for office space, and the costs and availability of construction materials and the economic returns on our construction and development activities;
-
volatile or adverse geopolitical conflicts and dislocations in the credit markets could adversely affect economic conditions and/or restrict our access to cost-effective capital, which could have a material adverse effect on our business opportunities, results of operations and financial condition;
-
risks associated with the availability and terms of financing, the use of debt to fund acquisitions and developments or refinance existing indebtedness, including the impact of higher interest rates on the cost and/or availability of financing and the use of forward interest rate contracts and derivatives and the effectiveness of such arrangements;
-
general risks affecting the real estate industry (including, without limitation, the inability to enter into or renew leases on attractive terms, sustained changes in client preferences and space utilization, dependence on clients’ financial condition, and competition from other developers, owners and operators of real estate);
-
failure to integrate acquisitions and developments successfully;
-
risks and uncertainties affecting property development and construction;
-
the ability of our joint venture partners to satisfy their obligations;
-
risks associated with actual or threatened terrorist attacks;
-
costs of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and other similar laws;
-
potential liability for uninsured losses and environmental contamination;
-
risks associated with climate change and severe weather events, as well as the regulatory efforts intended to reduce the effects of climate change;
-
risks associated with our use of AI and cyber security breaches, incidents and compromises, as well as other significant disruptions of our information technology (IT) networks and related systems, which support our operations and our buildings;
-
risks associated with legal proceedings and other claims that could result in substantial monetary damages and other costs;
-
risks associated with BXP’s potential failure to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”);
-
possible adverse changes in tax and environmental laws;
-
the impact of newly adopted accounting principles on our accounting policies and on period-to-period comparisons of financial results;
-
risks associated with possible state and local tax audits; and
-
risks associated with our dependence on key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed.
Investors are also urged to carefully review the disclosures we make concerning these risks and other factors
that may affect our business and operating results, including the risks and uncertainties described in (i) our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 including those described under the caption
“Risk Factors,” (ii) our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act and (iii) the risk factors set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in Part II, Item 1A, if any.
Other sections of this report may include additional factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not unduly rely on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. Investors should also refer to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for future periods and Current Reports on Form 8-K as we file them with the SEC, and to other materials we may furnish to the public from time to time through Current Reports on Form 8-K or otherwise, for a discussion of risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, future events, or otherwise, and you should not rely upon these forward-looking statements after the date of this report.
Overview
BXP is one of the largest publicly traded office REITs (based on total market capitalization as of March 31, 2026) in the United States that develops, owns, and manages primarily premier workplaces. Our properties are concentrated in six gateway markets in the U.S. - Boston, Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Seattle and Washington, DC.
We generate revenue and cash primarily by leasing premier workplaces to our clients. We consider premier workplaces to be well-located buildings that are modern structures or have been modernized to compete with newer buildings, are professionally managed and maintained, and offer a number and type of amenities that are in high demand by clients that are focused on the importance of the physical work environment in recruiting and retaining the best and brightest employees. As such, these properties attract creditworthy clients and command upper-tier rental rates in their markets. We do not consider the expression “premier workplaces” a classification of our properties in accordance with any standard listing criteria in the real estate industry. We therefore caution investors that our use and definition of “premier workplaces” may be different than the use and definition of similar expressions and traditional classifications that may be used by other companies.
When making leasing decisions, we consider, among other things, the creditworthiness of the client and the industry in which it conducts business, the length of the lease, the rental rate to be paid at inception and throughout the lease term, the amount of any security deposit or letter of credit posted by the client, the costs of tenant improvement allowances, free rent periods and other landlord concessions, anticipated operating expenses and real estate taxes, the date by which we expect to begin revenue recognition for the lease under GAAP, current and anticipated vacancy in our properties and the market overall (including sublease space), current and expected future demand for the space, the impact of other clients’ expansion rights and general economic factors.
We believe our key competitive advantages are our commitments to the office asset class and to our clients as many competitors have divested from the sector, a strong balance sheet with access to capital in the secured and unsecured debt markets and the private and public equity markets, and the high quality of our portfolio of premier workplaces. Our core strategy has always been to develop, acquire and manage premier workplaces in gateway markets with high barriers-to-entry and attractive demand drivers and to focus on executing long-term leases with financially strong clients that are diverse across market sectors. We believe this strategy provides a competitive advantage as our clients are interested in leasing space in vibrant, amenitized and accessible premier workplaces. This interest has accelerated the flight to quality in the office market. Over the past several years, BXP’s experience and performance has diverged from the larger market and media sentiment, as premier workplaces have outperformed the broader office market consistently and substantially in both rental rates achieved and occupancy. We believe this divergence validates our strategy and differentiates BXP from other office companies.
Premier workplaces in our five traditional central business district (“CBD”) markets (Boston, New York, San Francisco, Seattle and Washington, DC) have consistently outperformed the broader office market in those CBDs on several key metrics, including occupancy, net absorption levels, rental rates and landlord concessions. This outperformance is evident in BXP’s portfolio where we derive approximately 90% of our share of annualized rental obligations from predominantly premier workplaces located in CBDs. We define annualized rental obligations as the monthly contractual base rent (excluding percentage rent and rent abatements) and budgeted reimbursements from clients under existing leases as of March 31, 2026, multiplied by twelve. Our share of annualized rental obligations is calculated as the consolidated amount, plus our share of the amount from our unconsolidated joint ventures (calculated based on our economic percentage ownership interest), less our partners’ share of the amount from our consolidated joint ventures (calculated based on the partners’ economic percentage ownership interest). As of March 31, 2026, our CBD assets were 89.9% occupied and 93.4% leased (including vacant space for which we have signed leases that have not yet commenced in accordance with GAAP).
As of March 31, 2026, the weighted-average remaining lease term for (1) our in-place leases, based on square feet, including those signed by our unconsolidated joint ventures but excluding residential units, was approximately 7.6 years, and (2) our 20 largest clients, based on square feet, was approximately 9.1 years. Through year-end 2027, we have relatively low exposure to contractual lease expirations with approximately 6.3% of our share of the square footage of our in-service portfolio expiring.
During the first quarter of 2026, BXP continued to successfully execute on the multi-year strategic action plan introduced at our September 2025 Investor Day. The action plan focuses on earnings growth, which we expect will be achieved through a combination of increased occupancy and development deliveries, and reducing leverage through asset sales and retention of cash flow. Our progress reflects steady advancement across these key priorities.
Growth in Funds from Operations (“FFO”) per share depends in large part on the success of our leasing activity. Leasing momentum remained strong during the first quarter of 2026, as we signed leases for more than 1.1 million square feet.
Consistent with the strategic asset sales plan outlined at our September 2025 Investor Day, BXP has generated approximately $1.2 billion of aggregate net proceeds from completed asset sales through May 1, 2026, including approximately $358.1 million in 2026, further enhancing balance sheet flexibility and supporting our capital needs and strategic priorities.
During the first quarter, we completed the sales of North First Business Park in San Jose, CA, a land parcel in Rockville, MD, The Lofts at Atlantic Wharf in Boston, MA, and BXP’s ownership interest in each of Gateway Commons in South San Francisco, CA and 7750 Wisconsin Avenue in Bethesda, MD. The aggregate gross sales price of these residential, land and non-strategic office sales totaled approximately $495.7 million, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $339.0 million and gains on sales of real estate and our investment in joint ventures of approximately $54.7 million, in each case based on BXP’s share.
Outlook
Leasing conditions across BXP’s portfolio remain constructive, supported by continued client demand in premier office locations and tangible progress in leasing execution. Leasing activity has been increasingly concentrated in our highest‑quality, well‑located CBD assets, including Midtown Manhattan, the Back Bay of Boston, Reston Town Center, and select submarkets in San Francisco, where tightening availability and improving demand dynamics are translating into meaningful leasing momentum. Demand has also broadened in certain West Coast markets, particularly within South of Market San Francisco and Santa Monica, reflecting renewed interest from expanding and relocating clients.
Looking ahead, leasing for vacant space in our in-service buildings and coverage of near‑term lease expirations are expected to be the primary drivers of occupancy and same‑store revenue growth. We have a manageable level of remaining 2026 expirations, a growing pipeline of active negotiations, and a meaningful volume of executed leases scheduled to commence this year. Together, these factors provide increased visibility into continued occupancy improvement and support our expectation of achieving year‑end 2026 occupancy targets consistent with those outlined at our September 2025 Investor Day.
On the supply side, new office construction has effectively slowed to a halt across most of our markets, which we expect will result in improved long‑term supply‑demand fundamentals and reinforcement of the relative competitiveness of institutional, well‑amenitized assets. Capital markets sentiment toward the office sector has continued to improve, as reflected in increasing private market transaction activity and greater availability of both debt and equity capital at more attractive pricing. This backdrop is expected to support our leasing momentum, facilitate orderly execution of strategic asset sales, and enable continued capital recycling initiatives throughout 2026.
Leasing Activity and Occupancy
Although all of the markets in which we operate still need consistent incremental absorption to constitute a macro recovery, we continue to see pockets of strength where low availability is driving constructive client behavior. As clients choose financially sound premier workplaces with building owners that are committed to their properties for the long term and are operated by the best property management teams, we expect to continue to be successful in gaining market share.
In the first quarter of 2026, we executed 68 leases totaling more than 1.1 million square feet with a weighted-average lease term of approximately 8.7 years.
At March 31, 2026, BXP’s total in-service portfolio occupancy was 87.4%, an increase of 70 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2025. Total portfolio leased percentage was 90.9% (including vacant space for which we have signed leases that have not yet commenced revenue recognition in accordance with GAAP), an increase of 150 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2025. The spread between leased and occupied square footage has grown to 350 basis points, representing approximately 1.6 million square feet of leases yet to commence, of which approximately 91% is expected to commence throughout 2026, consistent with the trajectory outlined at our Investor Day in September 2025.
An overview of the leasing activity in each of our regions for the three months ended March 31, 2026 is set forth in the table below. Amounts shown are in square feet, except for percentages, and include 100% of the unconsolidated joint venture properties.

Investment Activity
In 2025, BXP commenced vertical construction on 343 Madison Avenue in New York City, New York. 343 Madison Avenue will be a highly amenitized, sustainably designed, 46-story, 930,000 square foot premier workplace located on one of the most desirable office development sites in Manhattan with direct access to Grand Central Station. BXP is currently in active negotiations for additional leases, that, if executed, are expected to increase pre-leasing at the property to approximately 56%. As of May 1, 2026, the project was 29% pre-leased.
BXP anticipates placing 290 Binney Street, a 573,000 square foot, state-of-the-art life sciences building located in Cambridge, Massachusetts within the Kendall Square submarket, into service in the second quarter of 2026. The property is 100% pre-leased to AstraZeneca.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discuss our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 contains a discussion of our critical accounting estimates. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting estimates since the year ended December 31, 2025.
Results of Operations
At March 31, 2026 and 2025, we owned or had joint venture interests in a portfolio of 164 and 185 commercial real estate properties, respectively (in each case, the “Total Property Portfolio”). As a result of changes within our Total Property Portfolio, the financial data presented below shows significant changes in revenue and expenses from period-to-period. Accordingly, we do not believe that our period-to-period financial data with respect to the Total Property Portfolio provides a complete understanding of our operating results. Therefore, the comparison of operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 shows separately the changes attributable to the properties that were owned by us and in-service throughout each period compared (the “Same Property Portfolio”) and the changes attributable to the properties included in the Acquired, Placed In-Service, In or Held for Development or Redevelopment or Sold Portfolios.
In our analysis of operating results, particularly to make comparisons of Net Operating Income (“NOI”) between periods more meaningful, it is important to provide information for properties that were in-service and owned by us throughout each period presented. We refer to properties acquired or placed in-service prior to the beginning of the earliest period presented and owned by us and in-service through the end of the latest period presented as our Same Property Portfolio. The Same Property Portfolio therefore excludes properties acquired, placed in-service or in or held for development or redevelopment after the beginning of the earliest period presented or disposed of prior to the end of the latest period presented.
NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to net income attributable to BXP, Inc. and net income attributable to Boston Properties Limited Partnership, as applicable, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, plus (1) net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, interest expense, loss from early extinguishment of debt, losses from investments in securities, loss on sales-type lease, depreciation and amortization expense, transaction costs, payroll and related costs from management services contracts and corporate general and administrative expense less (2) unrealized gain (loss) on non-real estate investments, interest and other income (loss), gains on sales of real estate, income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures, direct reimbursements of payroll and related costs from management services contracts and development and management services revenue. We use NOI internally as a performance measure and believe it provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations and financial condition because, when compared across periods, it reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and development activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income attributable to BXP, Inc. and net income attributable to Boston Properties Limited Partnership. For example, interest expense is not necessarily linked to the operating performance of a real estate asset and is often incurred at the corporate level as opposed to the property level. Similarly, interest expense may be incurred at the property level even though the financing proceeds may be used at the corporate level (e.g., used for other investment activity). In addition, depreciation and amortization expense, because of historical cost accounting and useful life estimates, may distort operating performance measures at the property level. NOI presented by us may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs or real estate companies that define NOI differently.
We believe that in order to understand our operating results, NOI should be examined in conjunction with net income attributable to BXP, Inc. and net income attributable to Boston Properties Limited Partnership as presented in our Consolidated Financial Statements. NOI should not be considered as a substitute for net income attributable to BXP, Inc. or net income attributable to Boston Properties Limited Partnership (determined in accordance with
GAAP) or any other GAAP financial measures and should only be considered together with and as a supplement to our financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Gains on sales of real estate, impairment losses and depreciation expense may differ between BXP and BPLP as a result of previously applied acquisition accounting by BXP for the issuance of common stock in connection with non-sponsor redemptions of common units of limited partnership interest of BPLP (“OP Units”). This accounting resulted in a step-up of the real estate assets at BXP that was allocated to certain properties. The difference between the real estate assets of BXP as compared to BPLP for certain properties having an allocation of the real estate step-up will result in a corresponding difference in gains on sales of real estate, impairment losses and depreciation expense upon the sale of these properties. For additional information see the Explanatory Note that immediately follows the cover page of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
Net income attributable to BXP, Inc. and net income attributable to Boston Properties Limited Partnership increased approximately $40.4 million and $44.9 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025, as detailed in the following tables and for the reasons discussed below under the heading “Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2026 to the three months ended March 31, 2025” within “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
The following are reconciliations of (1) Net Income Attributable to BXP, Inc. to NOI and (2) Net Income Attributable to Boston Properties Limited Partnership to NOI for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. For a detailed discussion of NOI, including the reasons management believes NOI is useful to investors, see page 41.

(1)Rental Revenue is equal to Revenue less Development and Management Services Revenue and Direct Reimbursements of Payroll and Related Costs from Management Services Revenue per the Consolidated Statements of Operations, excluding the residential and hotel revenue that is noted below. We use Rental Revenue internally as a performance measure and in calculating other non-GAAP financial measures (e.g., NOI), which provide investors with information regarding our performance that is not immediately apparent from the most directly comparable GAAP measures and allows investors to compare operating performance between periods.
(2)For a detailed discussion of NOI, including the reasons management believes NOI is useful to investors, see page 41. Residential Net Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 is comprised of Residential Revenue of $4,452 and $12,348 less Residential Expenses of $2,210 and $5,897, respectively. Hotel Net Operating Income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 is comprised of Hotel Revenue of $9,101 and $9,597 less Hotel Expenses of $7,982 and $7,565, respectively, per the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Same Property Portfolio
Lease Revenue (Excluding Termination Income)
Lease revenue (excluding termination income) from the Same Property Portfolio increased by approximately $12.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025. The increase resulted from our average revenue per square foot increasing by approximately $0.86, contributing approximately $7.7 million, and our average occupancy increasing from 88.3% to 88.9%, contributing approximately $4.7 million.
Termination Income
Termination income increased by approximately $12.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025.
Termination income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 related to seven and two clients, respectively, across the Same Property Portfolio and totaled approximately $12.8 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
Parking and Other Revenue
Parking and other revenue increased by approximately $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025. Parking revenue increased by approximately $1.3 million, partially offset by a decrease in other revenue of approximately $0.1 million. The increase in parking revenue was primarily due to an increase in transient parking.
Real Estate Operating Expenses
Real estate operating expenses from the Same Property Portfolio increased by approximately $18.8 million, or 6.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025, primarily due to increases in (1) utilities and roads/grounds/security expenses of approximately $9.7 million, or 14.7%, and (2) real estate operating expenses of approximately $9.1 million, or 3.7%. The increase in utilities and roads/grounds/security expenses was primarily attributable to colder temperatures and increased snow removal during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025.

(1)These properties are no longer considered “in-service” because each property’s occupied percentage is less than 50% and we anticipate a future development/redevelopment of the property. A property will be considered held for development or redevelopment until the last client has vacated the property and the property is no longer revenue producing.
(2)Reservoir Place is an approximately 526,000 square foot office building, of which approximately 165,000 square feet remains in-service.
(3)This portion of Santa Monica Business Park is comprised of two buildings, 2850 Ocean Park and 2800 28th Street.

Residential Net Operating Income
Net operating income for our residential same property increased by approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025.
The following reflects our occupancy and rate information for our residential same property for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

(1)Average Monthly Rental Rate is calculated as the average of the quotients obtained by dividing (A) rental revenue as determined in accordance with GAAP, by (B) the number of occupied units, for each month within the applicable fiscal period.
(2)Average Physical Occupancy is defined as (1) the average number of occupied units divided by (2) the total number of units, expressed as a percentage.
(3)Average Economic Occupancy is defined as (1) total possible revenue less vacancy loss divided by (2) total possible revenue, expressed as a percentage. Total possible revenue is determined by valuing average occupied units at contract rates and average vacant units at Market Rents. Vacancy loss is determined by valuing vacant units at current Market Rents. By measuring vacant units at their Market Rents, Average Economic Occupancy takes into account the fact that units of different sizes and locations within a residential property have different economic impacts on a residential property’s total possible gross revenue. “Market Rents” used by us in calculating Average Economic Occupancy are based on the current market rates set by the managers of our residential properties based on their experience in renting their residential property’s units and publicly available market data. Actual market rents and trends in such rents for a region as reported by others may vary materially from Market Rents used by us. Market Rents for a period are based on the average Market Rents during that period and do not reflect any impact for cash concessions.
Hotel Net Operating Income
The Boston Marriott Cambridge hotel had Net Operating Income of approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, representing a decrease of approximately $0.9 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Other Operating Revenue and Expense Items
Development and Management Services Revenue
Development and management services revenue decreased by approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025. Management services revenue decreased by approximately $1.1 million, partially offset by development services revenue increasing by approximately $0.5 million. The decrease in management services revenue primarily related to a leasing commission earned from an unconsolidated joint venture in New York City in 2025 that did not recur in 2026. The increase in development services revenue was primarily related to an increase in fees associated with tenant improvement projects.
General and Administrative Expense
General and administrative expense increased by approximately $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025 primarily due to increases in compensation expense of approximately $6.1 million and approximately $1.0 million increase in other general and administrative expenses. The increase in compensation expense includes an approximately $2.9 million non-cash increase related to the December 2025 issuance of the 2025 Outperformance Plan Awards (“2025 OPP Units”) offset by an approximately $0.2 million decrease in the value of our deferred compensation plan. The increase in other general and administrative expenses is primarily due to an increase in state and local taxes.
Wages directly related to the development of rental properties are capitalized and included in real estate assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and amortized over the useful lives of the applicable asset or lease term. Capitalized wages for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were approximately $4.1 million and $4.4 million, respectively. These costs are not included in the general and administrative expenses discussed above.
Transaction Costs
Transaction costs decreased by approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025. In general, transaction costs relating to the formation of new joint ventures and the pursuit of other transactions are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by approximately $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025, for BXP and BPLP, as detailed below (in thousands).

Direct Reimbursements of Payroll and Related Costs From Management Services Contracts and Payroll and Related Costs From Management Service Contracts
We have determined that amounts reimbursed for payroll and related costs received from third parties in connection with management services contracts should be reflected on a gross basis instead of on a net basis as we have determined that we are the principal under these arrangements. We anticipate that these two financial statement line items will generally offset each other.
Other Income and Expense Items
Income (Loss) from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025, income (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures increased by approximately $37.6 million primarily due to the approximately $41.2 million gain on sales of investments realized in connection with the sales of 7750 Wisconsin Avenue and Gateway Commons during the three months ended March 31, 2026 (See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

(1)Excludes approximately $0.3 million of loss in connection with the sale of our entire 50% ownership interest in the joint venture entity that owned Gateway Commons as a result of our outstanding receivable balance for development and construction management fees that were forfeited (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), and $0.1 million of loss related to sales that occurred in prior periods.
(2)We had previously recognized impairment losses for these properties.
(3)The fair value of the real estate disposed exceeded the carrying value.
Interest and Other Income (Loss)
Interest and other income (loss) increased by approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025, due primarily to a reserve related to the unpaid default interest on one of our related party notes receivable during the three months ended March 31, 2025 of approximately $3.0 million, partially offset by a decrease in our outstanding cash balances and corresponding lower interest income.
Losses from Investments in Securities
Losses from investments in securities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 related to investments that we have made to reduce our market risk relating to deferred compensation plans that we maintain for BXP’s officers and former non-employee directors. Under their respective deferred compensation plans, eligible officers and non-employee directors are permitted to defer a portion of their current compensation on a pre-tax basis and receive a tax-deferred return on the amounts deferred based on the performance of specific investments selected by participating officers and non-employee directors. In order to reduce our market risk relating to these plans, we typically acquire, in a separate account that is not restricted as to its use, similar or identical investments as those selected by each officer or non-employee director. This enables us to generally match our liabilities to participants under our deferred compensation plans with equivalent assets and thereby limit our market risk. The performance of these investments is recorded as gains from investments in securities. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recognized losses of approximately $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively, on these investments. By comparison, our general and administrative expense decreased by approximately $0.6 million and $0.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, as a result of decreases in our liability under our deferred compensation plans that was associated with the performance of the specific investments selected by participating officers and former non-employee directors of BXP.
Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Non-Real Estate Investments
We invest in non-real estate investments, which primarily consist of environmentally-focused investment funds. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recognized an unrealized gain (loss) of approximately $0.2 million and $(0.5) million, respectively, due to the observable changes in the fair value of the investments.
Loss on Sales-Type Lease
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recognized approximately $2.5 million in additional costs, which had previously been contingent, related to a ground lease for land at our Reston Next property located in Reston, Virginia. We entered into the ground lease in 2020 with a third-party hotel developer and amended it in 2022. The amendment resulted in the derecognition of the assets related to the ground lease and the classification of the ground lease as a sales-type lease resulting in the recognition of a gain on sales-type lease of approximately $10.1 million.
Loss From Early Extinguishment of Debt
On March 28, 2025, BPLP amended and restated its revolving credit agreement (“2025 Credit Facility”). As a result of the amendment and restatement, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recognized a loss from early extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.3 million related to unamortized origination costs.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased by approximately $11.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025, as detailed below.

(1)Includes, if applicable, fair value and swap adjustments (See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Interest expense directly related to the development of rental properties is capitalized and included in real estate assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheets and amortized over the useful lives of the real estate or lease term. As portions of properties are placed in-service, we cease capitalizing interest on that portion and interest is then expensed. Interest capitalized for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was approximately $16.5 million and $10.3 million, respectively. These costs are not included in the interest expense referenced above.
At March 31, 2026, our variable rate debt consisted of (1) BPLP’s $2.95 billion 2025 Credit Facility and (2) BPLP’s $750.0 million unsecured commercial paper program (“Commercial Paper Program”). The 2025 Credit Facility consists of (1) a revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Facility”) of $2.25 billion and (2) an unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) of $700.0 million. As of March 31, 2026, there were $700.0 million and $750.0 million outstanding under the 2025 Credit Facility and Commercial Paper Program, respectively.
In addition, we have the $100.0 million 2024 Unsecured Term Loan and $800.0 million of mortgage notes collateralized by Santa Monica Business Park and 325 Main Street, 355 Main Street, 90 Broadway and Cambridge East Garage (also known as Kendall Center Green Garage) properties that bear interest at variable rates, which have all been hedged with interest rate swaps to fix SOFR for all or a portion of the applicable debt term.
For a summary of our consolidated debt as of March 31, 2026 refer to the heading “Liquidity and Capital Resources—Debt” within “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
Noncontrolling Interests in Property Partnerships
Noncontrolling interests in property partnerships increased by approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025, as detailed below.

Noncontrolling Interest—Common Units of the Operating Partnership
For BXP, noncontrolling interest—common units of the Operating Partnership increased by approximately $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 2025 primarily due to an increase in allocable income, which was the result of recognizing greater gains on sales of real estate during 2026. Due to our ownership structure, there is no corresponding line item on BPLP’s financial statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
Our principal liquidity needs for the next twelve months and beyond are to:
-
fund normal recurring expenses;
-
meet debt service and principal repayment obligations on maturing debt, including:
-
$100.0 million of principal outstanding on the 2024 Unsecured Term Loan due September 26, 2026, for which we have two, one-year extension options, subject to customary conditions;
-
$1.0 billion of 2.750% unsecured senior notes due October 1, 2026; and
-
amounts that become due under the Commercial Paper Program;
-
fund capital calls from our unconsolidated joint venture investments to fund development costs, capital improvements, leasing costs and debt principal repayment;
-
fund mezzanine debt obligations;
-
fund development and redevelopment costs;
-
fund capital expenditures, including major renovations, tenant improvements and leasing costs;
-
fund possible acquisitions of properties, either directly or indirectly through the acquisition of equity interests; and
-
make the minimum distribution required to enable BXP to maintain its REIT qualification under the Code.
We expect to satisfy these needs using one or more of the following:
-
cash flow from operations;
-
distributions of cash flows from joint ventures;
-
cash and cash equivalent balances;
-
borrowings under BPLP’s Revolving Facility, unsecured term loans, short-term bridge facilities and construction loans (which may require guarantees by BPLP);
-
proceeds from the sales of real estate and interests in joint ventures owning real estate, including proceeds generated from BXP’s asset sales program;
-
long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness (including unsecured exchangeable indebtedness);
-
private equity sources, including institutional investors;
-
third-party fees generated by our property management, leasing, development and construction businesses; and
-
issuances of BXP equity securities and/or preferred or common units of partnership interests in BPLP.
We draw on multiple financing sources to fund our long-term capital needs. We use BPLP’s Revolving Facility primarily as a bridge facility to fund acquisition opportunities, refinance outstanding indebtedness, fund short-term development costs and for working capital. We also use BPLP’s Revolving Facility to backstop the Commercial Paper Program. Although we may seek to fund our development projects with construction loans, which may require guarantees by BPLP, the source of financing for each particular project ultimately depends on several factors, including, among others, the project’s size and duration, whether the project is funded and owned by a joint venture, the extent of pre-leasing, our available cash and access to cost effective capital at the given time.
We seek to maximize income from our existing properties by maintaining quality standards for our properties that promote high occupancy rates and permit increases in rental rates while reducing client turnover and controlling operating expenses. Our sources of revenue also include third-party fees generated by our property management, leasing, development and construction businesses, interest earned on cash deposits and, from time to time, the sale of assets. We believe these capital sources will continue to meet our short-term liquidity needs. A material adverse change in one or more sources of capital may adversely affect our net cash flows and our ability to repay or refinance existing indebtedness as it matures.
Balance Sheet & Financing Activity
As of May 1, 2026, we had available cash of approximately $464.0 million (of which approximately $120.2 million was attributable to our consolidated joint venture partners). Our liquidity and capital resources depend on a wide range of factors, and we believe that our access to capital and our strong liquidity, including the approximately $1.5 billion available under BPLP’s Revolving Facility (after deducting the $750.0 million being used as a backstop for the Commercial Paper Program) as of May 1, 2026, and our available cash are sufficient to fund our near-term capital needs on existing development and redevelopment projects, repay our maturing indebtedness when due (if not refinanced or extended), satisfy our REIT distribution requirements (see “REIT Tax Distribution Considerations” below) and still allow us to act opportunistically on attractive investment opportunities.
From January 1, 2025 through May 1, 2026, we completed 17 sales transactions of which our share of the aggregate gross sales price was approximately $1.5 billion and our share of the net proceeds was approximately $1.2 billion.
We may seek to enhance our liquidity to fund our current and future development activity, pursue attractive investment opportunities and refinance or repay indebtedness. Depending on then-current interest rates, the overall conditions in the public and private debt and equity markets, and our existing and expected leverage at the time, we may decide to access one or more of these capital sources. Doing so may result in greater cash and cash equivalents pending our use of the proceeds.
On March 6, 2026, BXP renewed and increased the size of its “at the market” (“ATM”) stock offering program to $1.0 billion (See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). We have not sold any shares under the ATM equity offering program.
Construction & Redevelopment Activities
As of March 31, 2026, we have six properties under development or redevelopment. Our share of the estimated total investment for these projects is approximately $3.7 billion, of which approximately $2.3 billion remained to be invested as of March 31, 2026. The commercial space in the pipeline, which excludes residential units, was approximately 61% pre-leased as of May 1, 2026.

REIT Tax Distribution Considerations
Dividend
As a REIT, BXP is subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that BXP currently distribute at least 90% of its annual taxable income (excluding capital gains and with certain other adjustments). Our policy is for BXP to distribute at least 100% of its taxable income, including capital gains, to avoid paying federal tax. BXP’s Board of Directors will continue to evaluate BXP’s dividend rate in light of our actual and projected taxable income (including gains on sales), liquidity requirements and other circumstances, and there can be no assurance that the future dividends declared by BXP’s Board of Directors will not differ materially from the current quarterly dividend amount.
Holders of common and LTIP units (other than unearned MYLTIP units) of limited partnership interest in BPLP receive the same distribution per unit that is paid per share of BXP common stock.
Sales
To the extent that we sell assets at a gain and cannot efficiently use the proceeds in a tax deferred manner for either our development activities or acquisitions, BXP would, at the appropriate time, decide whether it is better to declare a special dividend, adopt a stock repurchase program, reduce indebtedness or retain the cash for future investment opportunities. Such a decision will depend on many factors including, among others, the timing, availability and terms of development and acquisition opportunities, our then-current and anticipated leverage, the cost and availability of capital from other sources, the price of BXP’s common stock and REIT distribution requirements. At a minimum, we expect that BXP would distribute at least that amount of proceeds necessary for BXP to avoid paying corporate level tax on the applicable gains realized from any asset sales.
From time to time in select cases, whether due to a change in use, structuring issues to comply with applicable REIT regulations or other reasons, we may sell an asset that is held by a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”). Such a sale by a TRS would be subject to federal and local taxes.
Cash Flow Summary
The following summary discussion of our cash flows is based on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and is not meant to be an all-inclusive discussion of the changes in our cash flows for the periods presented below.
Cash and cash equivalents and cash held in escrows aggregated approximately $581.3 million and $479.2 million at March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, representing an increase of approximately $102.0 million. The following table sets forth changes in cash flows:
| Three months ended March 31, | |||||||||||||||||

| Net cash used in financing activities | (1,138,305) | (756,882) | (381,423) |
Our principal source of cash flow is related to the operation of our properties. The weighted-average term of our in-place leases, including leases signed by our unconsolidated joint ventures, excluding residential units, was approximately 7.6 years as of March 31, 2026, with occupancy rates historically in the range of approximately 86% to 92%. Generally, our properties generate a relatively consistent stream of cash flows that provides us with resources to pay operating expenses, debt service and fund regular quarterly dividend and distribution payment requirements. In addition, over the past several years, we have raised capital through the sale of some of our properties and through secured and unsecured borrowings.
Cash is used in investing activities to fund acquisitions, development, net investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and maintenance and repositioning capital expenditures. Cash is provided by investing activities from sales of real estate and sales of investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. Cash provided by (used in) investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 is detailed below:

Cash provided by (used in) investing activities changed primarily due to the following:
(1)Construction in progress for the three months ended March 31, 2026 included ongoing expenditures associated with Reston Next Retail which was fully placed in-service during the three months ended March 31, 2026. In addition, we incurred costs associated with our continued development/redevelopment of 290 Binney Street, 121 Broadway Street, 725 12th Street and 343 Madison Avenue.
Construction in progress for the three months ended March 31, 2025 included ongoing expenditures associated with Reston Next Office Phase II and Reston Next Retail, which were partially placed in-service during the three months ended March 31, 2025. In addition, we incurred costs associated with our continued development/redevelopment of 290 Binney Street, 121 Broadway Street, 725 12th Street and 1050 Winter Street.
(2)Building, pre-development and other capital improvements for the three months ended March 31, 2025 included approximately $18.0 million of pre-development expenditures associated with the 343 Madison Avenue project. Beginning July 31, 2025, costs associated with the continued development of 343 Madison Avenue are included within construction in progress.
(3)Proceeds from sales of real estate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily from three transactions (See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
(4)Capital contributions to unconsolidated joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2026 consisted primarily of cash contributions of approximately $30.3 million and $6.1 million to our 290 Coles Street and 200 Fifth Avenue joint ventures, respectively.
Capital contributions to unconsolidated joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2025 consisted primarily of cash contributions of approximately $21.2 million, $20.0 million and $6.2 million to our 751 Gateway, 290 Coles Street and 360 Park Avenue South joint ventures, respectively. On March 5, 2025, we entered into a new joint venture for the development of 290 Coles Street.
(5)Proceeds from sales of investments in unconsolidated joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily from two transactions (See Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 totaled approximately $1.1 billion. This amount consisted primarily of the repayment of BPLP’s $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of its 3.650% unsecured senior notes due February 1, 2026 and the payment of our regular dividends and distributions to our shareholders and unitholders. Future debt payments are discussed below under the heading “Debt.”

Consolidated Debt to Consolidated Market Capitalization Ratio is a measure of leverage commonly used by analysts in the REIT sector. We present this measure as a percentage and it is calculated by dividing (A) our consolidated debt by (B) our consolidated market capitalization, which is the market value of our outstanding equity securities plus our consolidated debt. Consolidated market capitalization is the sum of:
(1) our consolidated debt; plus
(2) the product of (x) the closing price per share of BXP common stock on March 31, 2026, as reported by the New York Stock Exchange, multiplied by (y) the sum of:
(i) the number of outstanding shares of common stock of BXP,
(ii) the number of outstanding OP Units in BPLP (excluding OP Units held by BXP),
(iii) the number of OP Units issuable upon conversion of all outstanding LTIP Units, assuming all conditions have been met for the conversion of the LTIP Units, and
(iv) the number of OP Units issuable upon conversion of 2012 OPP Units, and 2013 - 2023 MYLTIP Units that were issued in the form of LTIP Units.
The calculation of consolidated market capitalization does not include LTIP Units issued in the form of 2012 and 2025 OPP Units or MYLTIP Units unless and until certain performance thresholds are achieved and they are earned. Because their performance periods have not yet ended, the 2024 - 2026 MYLTIP Units and 2025 OPP Units are not included in this calculation as of March 31, 2026.
We also present BXP’s Share of Market Capitalization and BXP’s Share of Debt/BXP’s Share of Market Capitalization, which are calculated in the same manner, except that BXP’s Share of Debt is utilized instead of our consolidated debt in both the numerator and the denominator. BXP’s Share of Debt is defined as our consolidated debt plus our share of debt from our unconsolidated joint ventures (calculated based upon our ownership percentage), minus our partners’ share of debt from our consolidated joint ventures (calculated based upon the partners’ percentage ownership interests adjusted for basis differentials). Management believes that BXP’s Share
of Debt provides useful information to investors regarding our financial condition because it includes our share of debt from unconsolidated joint ventures and excludes our partners’ share of debt from consolidated joint ventures, in each case presented on the same basis. We have several significant joint ventures and presenting various measures of financial condition in this manner can help investors better understand our financial condition and/or results of operations after taking into account our economic interest in these joint ventures. We caution investors that the ownership percentages used in calculating BXP’s Share of Debt may not completely and accurately depict all of the legal and economic implications of holding an interest in a consolidated or unconsolidated joint venture. For example, in addition to partners’ interests in profits and capital, venture agreements vary in the allocation of rights regarding decision making (both for routine and major decisions), distributions, transferability of interests, financing and guarantees, liquidations and other matters. Moreover, in some cases we exercise significant influence over, but do not control, the joint venture in which case GAAP requires that we account for the joint venture entity using the equity method of accounting and we do not consolidate it for financial reporting purposes. In other cases, GAAP requires that we consolidate the venture even though our partner(s) own(s) a significant percentage interest. As a result, management believes that the presentation of BXP’s Share of a financial measure should not be considered a substitute for, and should only be considered with and as a supplement to our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP.
We present these supplemental ratios because our degree of leverage could affect our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, development or other general corporate purposes and because different investors and lenders consider one or both of these ratios. Investors should understand that these ratios are, in part, a function of the market price of the common stock of BXP and as such will fluctuate with changes in such price, and they do not necessarily reflect our capacity to incur additional debt to finance our activities or our ability to manage our existing debt obligations. However, for a company like BXP, whose assets are primarily income-producing real estate, these ratios may provide investors with an alternate indication of leverage, so long as they are evaluated along with the ratio of indebtedness to other measures of asset value used by financial analysts and other financial ratios, as well as the various components of our outstanding indebtedness.

(1)For the unsecured senior notes, the GAAP rate represents the yield on issuance date including the effects of discounts on the notes, settlements of interest rate contracts and the amortization of financing costs. For all other debt, the GAAP interest rate differs from the stated interest rate due to the inclusion of the amortization of financing charges, the effects of hedging transactions (if any and excluding capped calls classified as equity) and adjustments required under ASC 805 “Business Combinations” to reflect loans and swaps at their fair values (if any).
(2)No principal amounts are due prior to maturity.
(3)These unsecured senior notes were repaid at maturity, see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
(4)At March 31, 2026, the weighted average interest rate of the commercial paper notes outstanding was approximately 4.10% per annum, and they had a weighted-average maturity of 40 days from the date of issuance. At May 1, 2026, BPLP had an aggregate of $750.0 million of commercial paper notes outstanding that bore interest at a weighted-average rate of approximately 4.12% per annum and had a weighted-average maturity of 42 days, from the date of issuance.
(5)The unsecured line of credit bears interest at a variable rate of SOFR+0.85% per annum. The 2025 Credit Facility is used as a backstop for the $750.0 million Commercial Paper Program. As such, BPLP intends to maintain, at a minimum, availability under the unsecured line of credit in an amount equal to the amount of unsecured commercial paper notes outstanding. The table below provides the principal indebtedness outstanding and remaining capacity under the unsecured line of credit at March 31, 2026 and May 1, 2026 (dollars in thousands).

(6)The 2024 Unsecured Term Loan bears interest at a variable rate of SOFR+1.05% per annum. BPLP entered into an interest rate swap contract to fix SOFR at a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 3.6775% per annum for the period commencing on April 7, 2025 and ending on April 6, 2026. We did not purchase a new interest rate swap contract. Stated interest rate reflects the weighted-average fixed interest rate based on the interest rate swap contracts plus 1.05% per annum. The 2024 Unsecured Term Loan has two one-year extension options, subject to certain conditions.
(7)The Unsecured Term Loan Facility bears interest at a variable rate of SOFR+0.95% per annum and has two, six-month extension options, each subject to customary conditions.
(8)In connection with the refinancing of the loan, we guaranteed the consolidated entity’s obligation to fund various reserves for tenant improvement costs and allowances, leasing commissions and free rent obligations in lieu of cash deposits. As of March 31, 2026, the maximum funding obligation under the guarantee was approximately $6.4 million. We earn a fee from the joint venture for providing the guarantee and have an agreement with our partners to reimburse the joint venture for their share of any payments made under the guarantee.
(9)The mortgage loan bears interest at a variable rate of Daily Simple SOFR+1.60% per annum. BPLP entered into an interest rate swap contract to fix Daily Simple SOFR at a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 3.6775% per annum for the period commencing on April 7, 2025 and ending on April 6, 2026. We did not purchase a new interest rate swap contract. Stated interest rate reflects the weighted-average fixed interest rate based on the interest rate swap contracts plus 1.60% per annum.
(10)The mortgage loan bears interest at a variable rate of Daily Compounded SOFR+2.25% per annum. BPLP entered into three interest rate swap contracts with notional amounts aggregating $600.0 million to fix Daily Compounded SOFR at a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 3.7925% for the period commencing on December 15, 2023 and ending on October 26, 2028. The stated interest rate reflects the weighted average fixed interest rate based on the interest rate swap contracts plus 2.25% per annum.
(11)The loan has a one-year extension option remaining, subject to certain conditions.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
As of March 31, 2026, we had $900.0 million of interest rate swaps outstanding, where hedge accounting was elected, with a fair value of approximately $(3.8) million, see Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures - Secured Debt
We have investments in unconsolidated joint ventures with our effective ownership interests ranging from approximately 19% to approximately 71%. Thirteen of these ventures have mortgage indebtedness. We exercise significant influence over, but do not control, these entities. As a result, we account for them using the equity method of accounting. See also Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. At March 31, 2026, the aggregate carrying amount of debt, including both our and our partners’ share, incurred by these ventures was approximately $2.7 billion (of which our proportionate share is approximately $1.1 billion). The table below summarizes the outstanding debt of these joint venture properties at March 31, 2026. In addition to other guarantees specifically noted in the table, we have agreed to customary environmental indemnifications and nonrecourse carve-outs (e.g., guarantees against fraud, misrepresentation and bankruptcy) as well as the completion of development projects on certain of the loans.

State and Local Tax Matters
Because BXP is organized and qualifies as a REIT, it is generally not subject to federal income taxes, but is subject to certain state and local taxes. In the normal course of business, certain entities through which we own real estate either have undergone, or are currently undergoing, tax audits or other inquiries. Although we believe that we have substantial arguments in favor of our position in the ongoing audits, in some instances there is no controlling precedent or interpretive guidance on the specific point at issue. Collectively, tax deficiency notices received to date from the jurisdictions conducting the ongoing audits have not been material. However, there can be no assurance that future audits will not occur with increased frequency or that the ultimate result of such audits will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Funds from Operations
Pursuant to the revised definition of FFO adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), we calculate FFO for each of BXP and BPLP by adjusting net income attributable to BXP, Inc. and net income attributable to Boston Properties Limited Partnership (computed in accordance with GAAP), respectively, for gains (or losses) from sales of properties, including a change in control, impairment losses on depreciable real estate consolidated on our balance sheet, impairment losses on our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures driven by a measurable decrease in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the unconsolidated joint ventures and our share of real estate-related depreciation and amortization. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe the presentation of FFO, combined with the presentation of required GAAP financial measures, improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and helps make comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management generally considers FFO to be a useful measure for understanding and comparing our operating results because, by excluding gains and losses related to sales or a change in control of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, impairment losses and real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can differ across owners of similar assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help investors compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate across reporting periods and to the operating performance of other companies.
Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current Nareit definition or that interpret the current Nareit definition differently. We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of our operating results, FFO should be examined in conjunction with net income attributable to BXP, Inc. and net income attributable to Boston Properties Limited Partnership as presented in our Consolidated Financial Statements. FFO should not be considered as a substitute for net income attributable to BXP, Inc. or net income attributable to Boston Properties Limited Partnership (determined in accordance with GAAP) or any other GAAP financial measures and should only be considered together with and as a supplement to our financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
