The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes appearing elsewhere in this report, as well as Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Historical results and trends which might appear in the condensed consolidated financial statements should not be interpreted as being indicative of future operations.

We consider portions of this report to be "forward-looking" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, both as amended, with respect to our expectations for future periods. Forward-looking statements do not discuss historical fact, but instead include statements related to expectations, projections, intentions, or other items relating to the future; forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, results, or events. Although we believe the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance our expectations will be achieved. Any statements contained herein which are not statements of historical fact should be deemed forward-looking statements. Reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements as these statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors beyond our control and could differ materially from our actual results and performance.

Factors which may cause our actual results or performance to differ materially from those contemplated by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Volatility in capital and credit markets, or other unfavorable changes in economic conditions, either nationally or regionally in one or more of the markets in which we operate, could adversely impact us;

• Short-term leases could expose us to the effects of declining market rents;

• Competition could limit our ability to lease apartments or increase or maintain rental income;

• We could be negatively impacted by the risks associated with land holdings and related activities;

• The ongoing pandemic and measures intended to prevent its spread and impact have and could continue to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition;

• Development, redevelopment and construction risks could impact our profitability;

• We could be impacted by our investments through joint ventures and investment funds which involve risks not present in investments in which we are the sole investor;

• Our acquisition strategy may not produce the cash flows expected;

• Changes in rent control or rent stabilization laws and regulations could adversely affect our operations and property value;

• Failure to qualify as a REIT could have adverse consequences;

• Tax laws may continue to change at any time and any such legislative or other actions could have a negative effect on us;

• A cybersecurity incident and other technology disruptions could negatively impact our business;

• We have significant debt, which could have adverse consequences;

• Insufficient cash flows could limit our ability to make required payments for debt obligations or pay distributions to shareholders;

• Issuances of additional debt may adversely impact our financial condition;

• We may be unable to renew, repay, or refinance our outstanding debt;

• Rising interest rates could both increase our borrowing costs, thereby adversely affecting our cash flows and the amounts available for distribution to our shareholders, and decrease our share price, if investors seek higher yields through other investments;

• Failure to maintain our current credit ratings could adversely affect our cost of funds, related margins, liquidity, and access to capital markets;

• We may be adversely affected by changes in LIBOR reporting practices or the method in which LIBOR is determined;

• Share ownership limits and our ability to issue additional equity securities may prevent takeovers beneficial to shareholders;

• The form, timing and amount of dividend distributions in future periods may vary and be impacted by economic and other considerations;

• Competition could adversely affect our ability to acquire properties;

• Litigation risks could affect our business;

• Damage from catastrophic weather and other natural events could result in losses; and

• We could be adversely impacted due to our share price fluctuations.

These forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions as of the date of this report, and we assume no obligation to update or supplement forward-looking statements because of subsequent events.

Executive Summary

Camden Property Trust and all consolidated subsidiaries are primarily engaged in the ownership, management, development, redevelopment, acquisition, and construction of multifamily apartment communities. We focus on investing in markets characterized by high-growth economic conditions, strong employment, and attractive quality of life which we believe leads to higher demand for our apartments and retention of our residents. As of September 30, 2021, we owned interests in, operated, or were developing 178 multifamily properties comprised of 60,587 apartment homes across the United States. In addition, we own other land holdings which we may develop into multifamily apartment communities in the future.

Business Environment and Current Outlook

As a result of the pandemic, we believe the multifamily industry market conditions in which we operate have been challenging but continue to show signs of improvement. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, our results reflect an increase in same store revenues of approximately 5.1% as compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily due to higher average rental rates and increased occupancy which we believe was primarily attributable to improving job growth, favorable demographics with a higher propensity to rent versus buy, higher demand for multifamily housing in our markets, and a manageable supply of new multifamily housing.

We currently believe U.S. economic and employment growth are likely to continue during 2021 and the supply of multifamily homes will remain at manageable levels. If economic conditions were to worsen, our operating results could be adversely affected.

Consolidated Results

Net income attributable to common shareholders was $29.5 million and $35.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $91.0 and $94.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The $5.5 million and $3.7 million decreases during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the prior periods in 2020 were primarily due to higher depreciation expense related to the acquisition of three operating properties in June 2021 and August 2021. The decreases were also due to higher general and administration expenses and increases in property management, interest and fee and asset management expenses. These decreases were partially offset by increases in property operations due to the growth attributable to our same store, non-same store which includes three acquisitions discussed below, and development and lease-up communities, and increases in asset management income and equity in earnings. The decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was also partially offset by the $13.6 million Pandemic Related impact incurred in 2020. See further discussion of our 2021 operations as compared to 2020 in "Results of Operations," below.

Construction Activity

At September 30, 2021, we had a total of six properties under construction comprising 1,905 apartment homes. Initial occupancies of these six properties are currently scheduled to occur within the next 21 months. As of September 30, 2021, w
