Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2021 and 2020

(Unaudited)

(1) Organization and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements present the accounts of Essex Property Trust, Inc. ("Essex" or the "Company"), which include the accounts of the Company and Essex Portfolio, L.P. and its subsidiaries (the "Operating Partnership," which holds the operating assets of the Company), prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented have been included and are normal and recurring in nature. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 include the accounts of the Company and the Operating Partnership. Essex is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, with a 96.6% general partnership interest as of both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Total Operating Partnership limited partnership units ("OP Units," and the holders of such OP Units, "Unitholders") outstanding were 2,282,464 and 2,294,760 as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and the redemption value of the units, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock totaled approximately $729.8 million and $544.8 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

As of September 30, 2021, the Company owned or had ownership interests in 246 operating apartment communities, aggregating 60,799 apartment homes, excluding the Company’s ownership interest in preferred interest co-investments, loan investments, three operating commercial buildings, and a development pipeline comprised of two consolidated projects and one unconsolidated joint venture project. The operating apartment communities are located in Southern California (primarily Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, and Ventura counties), Northern California (the San Francisco Bay Area) and the Seattle metropolitan areas.

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Year

In January 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued ASU No. 2021-01 "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope." The amendments in ASU No. 2021-01 provide optional expedients to the current guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting from the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance generally can be applied to applicable contract modifications through December 31, 2022. The Company adopted this new guidance in January 2021 on a prospective basis. This adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Revenues and Gains on Sale of Real Estate

Revenues from tenants renting or leasing apartment homes are recorded when due from tenants and are recognized monthly as they are earned which generally approximates a straight-line basis, else, adjustments are made to conform to a straight-line basis. Apartment homes are rented under short-term leases (generally, lease terms of 9 to 12 months). Revenues from tenants leasing commercial space are recorded on a straight-line basis over the life of the respective lease. See Note 3, Revenues, for additional information regarding such revenues.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2021 and 2020

(Unaudited)

The Company also generates other property-related revenue associated with the leasing of apartment homes, including storage income, pet rent, and other miscellaneous revenue. Similar to rental income, such revenues are recorded when due from tenants and recognized monthly as they are earned.

Apart from rental and other property-related revenue, revenues from contracts with customers are recognized as control of the promised services is passed to the customer. For customer contracts related to management and other fees from affiliates (which includes asset management and property management), the transaction price and amount of revenue to be recognized is determined each quarter based on the management fee calculated and earned for that month or quarter. The contract will contain a description of the service and the fee percentage for management services. Payments from such services are one month or one quarter in arrears of the service performed.

The Company recognizes any gains on sales of real estate when it transfers control of a property and when it is probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the related consideration.

Marketable Securities

The Company reports its equity securities and available for sale debt securities at fair value, based on quoted market prices (Level 1 for the common stock and investment funds and Level 2 for the unsecured debt, as defined by the FASB standard for fair value measurements). As of both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $2.5 million of equity securities were presented within common stock and stock funds in the tables below, which represent investments measured at fair value, using net asset value as a practical expedient, and are not categorized in the fair value hierarchy.

Any unrealized gain or loss in debt securities classified as available for sale is recorded as other comprehensive income. Unrealized gains and losses in equity securities, realized gains and losses in debt securities, interest income, and amortization of purchase discounts are included in interest and other income on the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, equity securities and available for sale debt securities consisted primarily of investment-grade unsecured debt, and common stock and stock funds.

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, marketable securities consisted of the following ($ in thousands):

The Company uses the specific identification method to determine the cost basis of a debt security sold and to reclassify amounts from accumulated other comprehensive income for such securities.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities totaled $0.1 million and $52.6 million, respectively, which resulted in zero realized loss and $91 thousand in realized gains, respectively, for such periods. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities totaled $15.0 million and $56.9 million, respectively, which resulted in $2.5 million and $0.1 million in realized gains, respectively, for such periods.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the portion of equity security unrealized gains that were recognized in income totaled $7.1 million and $23.8 million, respectively, and were included in interest and other income on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the portion of equity security unrealized gains or losses that were recognized in income totaled $3.3 million and $2.2 million in gains, respectively, and were included in interest and other income on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Variable Interest Entities

In accordance with accounting standards for consolidation of variable interest entities ("VIEs"), the Company consolidated the Operating Partnership, 18 DownREIT entities (comprising nine communities), and six co-investments as of September 30, 2021. As of December 31, 2020, the Company consolidated the Operating Partnership, 17 DownREIT entities (comprising nine communities) and five co-investments. The Company consolidates these entities because it is deemed the primary beneficiary. The Company has no assets or liabilities other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. The consolidated total assets and liabilities related to the above consolidated co-investments and DownREIT entities, net of intercompany eliminations, were approximately $909.1 million and $323.3 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2021 and $898.5 million and $326.8 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2020. Noncontrolling interests in these entities were $122.4 million and $120.8 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The Company's financial risk in each VIE is limited to its equity investment in the VIE. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any VIEs of which it was not deemed to be the primary beneficiary.

Equity-based Compensation

The cost of share- and unit-based compensation awards is measured at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the awards. The estimated fair value of stock options and restricted stock granted by the Company are being amortized over the vesting period. The estimated grant date fair values of the long term incentive plan units (discussed in Note 14, "Equity Based Compensation Plans," in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020) are being amortized over the expected service periods.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Management believes that the carrying amounts of the outstanding balances under its lines of credit, and notes and other receivables approximate fair value as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, because interest rates, yields, and other terms for these instruments are consistent with interest rates, yields, and other terms currently available for similar instruments. Management has estimated that the fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt with a carrying value of $5.7 billion and $5.5 billion at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, was approximately $6.1 billion and $6.0 billion, respectively. Management has estimated that the fair value of the Company’s $366.4 million and $775.1 million of variable rate debt at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, was approximately $364.3 million and $770.1 million, respectively, based on the terms of existing mortgage notes payable, unsecured debt, and variable rate demand notes compared to those available in the marketplace. Management believes that the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, construction payables, other liabilities, and dividends payable approximate fair value as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. Marketable securities are carried at fair value as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Capitalization of Costs

The Company’s capitalized internal costs related to development and redevelopment projects were comprised primarily of interest and employee compensation and totaled $5.6 million and $6.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $17.5 million and $24.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company capitalizes leasing commissions associated with the lease-up of development communities and amortizes the costs over the life of the leases. The amounts capitalized for leasing commissions are immaterial for all periods presented.

Co-investments

The Company owns investments in joint ventures in which it has significant influence, but its ownership interest does not meet the criteria for consolidation in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Therefore, the Company accounts for co-investments using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, the investment is carried at the cost of assets contributed, plus the Company's equity in earnings less distributions received and the Company's share of losses. The significant accounting policies of the Company’s co-investment entities are consistent with those of the Company in all material respects.

Upon the acquisition of a controlling interest of a co-investment, the co-investment entity is consolidated and a gain or loss is recognized upon the remeasurement of co-investments in the consolidated statement of income equal to the amount by which the fair value of the Company's previously owned co-investment interest exceeds its carrying value. A majority of the co-investments, excluding most preferred equity investments, compensate the Company for its asset management services and some of these investments may provide promote income if certain financial return benchmarks are achieved. Asset management fees are recognized when earned, and promote fees are recognized when the earnings events have occurred and the amount is determinable and collectible. Any promote fees are reflected in equity income from co-investments.

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements, in accordance with U.S. GAAP, requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to acquiring, developing and assessing the carrying values of its real estate portfolio, its investments in and advances to joint ventures and affiliates, its notes receivables, and its qualification as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"). The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current market conditions, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may vary from those estimates and those estimates could be different under different assumptions or conditions.

The table above excludes from the calculations of diluted earnings per share weighted average convertible OP Units of 2,287,678 and 2,295,510, which include vested 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan Units, and 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan Units for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 2,291,725 and 2,297,141 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, because they were anti-dilutive. The related income allocated to these convertible OP Units aggregated $4.2 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $12.4 million and $16.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

(10) Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the aggregate carrying value of the interest rate swap contracts were a liability of zero and $2.4 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the swap contracts were presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as an asset of zero for both periods and a liability of zero and $2.4 million, respectively, and were included in other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has four total return swap contracts, with an aggregate notional amount of $224.5 million, that effectively convert $224.5 million of mortgage notes payable to a floating interest rate based on the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Index ("SIFMA") plus a spread. The total return swaps provide fair market value protection on the mortgage notes payable to the counterparties during the initial period of the total return swap until the Company's option to call the mortgage notes at par can be exercised. The Company can currently call all of its total return swaps, with $224.5 million of the outstanding debt at par. These derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting and had a carrying and fair value of zero at both September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. These total return swaps are scheduled to mature between November 2022 and December 2024. The realized gains of $2.7 million and $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $8.1 million and $7.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, were reported in the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as total return swap income.

including, without limitation, certain eviction moratoriums and other mandates that have been, or may be, enacted or extended in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic. To the extent that an environmental or other matter arises or is identified in the future that has other than a remote risk of having a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company will disclose the estimated range of possible outcomes associated with it, and, if an outcome is probable, accrue an appropriate liability for that matter. The Company will consider whether any such matter results in an impairment of value on the affected property and, if so, impairment will be recognized.
