[removed: ][added: ]
Summary of 2023
Our operating results were strong in 2023.
While uncertainties remain in the economic and geopolitical environment, our 2023 results are representative of the prospects we see for our business.
On June 29, 2023, we acquired a real estate portfolio comprised of 70 operating properties in the U.S., aggregating 14 million square feet, for cash consideration of $3.1 billion.
This activity also includes the sale of our investment in an unconsolidated office joint venture.
In April 2023, we formed PJLF, an unconsolidated co-investment venture in Japan, with two investors through the initial contribution of assets for which we received cash and equity ownership.
We made additional contributions to PJLF during 2023.
At December 31, 2023, our ownership interest was 16.3%.
At December 31, 2023, our total debt portfolio of $29.0 billion had a weighted average maturity of 9 years and an effective interest rate of 3.0%.
Our financing activities during the year included the following:
On April 5, 2023, we amended and restated our 2021 global senior credit facility (the "2021 Global Facility") as the 2023 Global Facility, increasing its borrowing capacity to $3.0 billion and extended the initial maturity date to June 2027.
On August 25, 2023, we amended and restated the Japanese yen revolver, increasing its borrowing capacity for total commitments of ¥58.5 billion ($414 million at December 31, 2023) and extended the initial maturity date to August 2027.

In the third quarter of 2023, we entered into Chinese renminbi term loans totaling CN¥1.7 billion ($239 million) with an issuance date weighted average interest rate of 3.5% maturing between September 2024 to 2026.
We issued senior notes of $5.4 billion (principal in millions):

Acquisition activity is principally due to the Duke Transaction on October 3, 2022 and a $3.1 billion real estate portfolio acquired in the U.S. on June 29, 2023.
Acquisition activity also includes the amortization of fair value lease adjustments to rental revenues due to in-place leases that were primarily below market at the time of the acquisition.
(2)
During both periods, we experienced positive rental rate growth.
Rental rate growth is a combination of higher rental rates on rollover of leases (or rent change) and contractual rent increases on existing leases.
Significant rent change during both periods continues to be a key driver in increasing rental income.
In 2022, our operating results were robust and we ended the year in a solid financial position.
Our 2022 results are representative of the prospects we see for our business despite challenging headwinds from the capital markets, ongoing inflation, steeply rising interest rates and the war and energy crisis in Europe that are all pressuring the global economy.
Due to current market conditions, we expect some decline in asset valuations in 2023 and therefore will continue to be disciplined as we evaluate capital deployment activities, including a focus on build-to-suit developments and a pause on contributions into our open-ended funds in the near term.
However, we will be cautious as we manage our business in this uncertain environment.
| • | On October 3, 2022, we completed the Duke Transaction for $23.2 billion through the issuance of equity and assumption of debt. We assumed $4.2 billion of debt with a weighted average stated interest rate of 2.3% and 4.9% at fair value. We paid down the balance of $745 million on Duke’s line of credit subsequent to closing the acquisition. The Duke portfolio was primarily comprised of logistics real estate assets, including 494 industrial operating properties, aggregating 144 million square feet. |

| • | With the overall strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the foreign currencies in which we operate, in 2022 we realized net gains upon settlement of undesignated derivative instruments that offset the negative impact of the translation of our earnings to U.S. dollars. |
| • | In June, we terminated our global senior credit facility (the “2019 Global Facility”) and entered into the 2022 Global Facility with a borrowing capacity of up to $3.0 billion and an extended initial maturity date of June 2026. We also upsized our second global senior credit facility (the “2021 Global Facility”), increasing its borrowing capacity up to $2.0 billion. This resulted in increasing our total borrowing capacity under both facilities to $5.0 billion and modifying the base rate of the aggregate lender commitments in U.S. dollars from the U.S. dollar London Inter-bank Offered Rate to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate. |
| • | At December 31, 2022, we had total senior notes of $19.8 billion, with a weighted average remaining maturity of 10 years and an effective interest rate of 2.3%. In addition to the senior notes assumed in the Duke Transaction, we issued $3.3 billion of senior notes in 2022 (principal in millions): |

| | (2) | A portion of the net proceeds from the issuance of these notes were used to finance green projects eligible under our green bond framework. |
On October 6, 2022, we completed an exchange offer and consent solicitation for nine series of Duke’s senior notes for an aggregate amount of $3.4 billion, with $3.2 billion, or 96%, of the aggregate principal amount being validly tendered for exchange.
The validly tendered senior notes were exchanged for notes issued by the OP.
As a result of the consent solicitation, we have no separate remaining financial reporting obligations or financial covenants associated with the senior notes assumed in the Duke Transaction.
All other terms of the assumed Duke senior notes remained substantially the same.

| (1) | Acquisition activity is principally due to the Duke Transaction on October 3, 2022. We primarily recognized intangible liabilities for the lower in-place rents, as compared to current market rents, under the acquired leases from Duke. These intangible liabilities are amortized to rental revenues over the remaining lease term, which on average is 64 months. |
| (1) | In 2022, we completed the Duke Transaction. |
The development portfolio included 15 buildings that were properties under development by Duke and acquired at the time of the acquisition.

| (2) | Recurring fees include asset management and property management fees. The increase in fees is primarily due to higher asset management fees driven by the increases in the fair value of the properties based on third party valuations. We saw some decline in asset values in the last half of 2022, and we expect to see additional decline in 2023. |
We expect that 2023 will include additional investments we are making in our Prologis Essentials business, primarily in the energy teams.
Additionally, 2021 included the sale of our ownership interest in one of our
We believe reviewing the fundamentals this way allows management to understand the entire impact to the financial statements, as it will affect both the Real Estate Segment and the Strategic Capital Segment, as well as the net earnings we recognize from our unconsolidated co-investment ventures based on our ownership.

| (1) | We exclude properties held for sale to third parties, along with development properties that were not stabilized at the beginning of the period and properties acquired or disposed of to third parties during the period. We also exclude net termination and renegotiation fees to allow us to evaluate the growth or decline in each property’s rental revenues without regard to one-time items that are not indicative of the property’s recurring operating performance. Net termination and renegotiation fees represent the gross fee negotiated to allow a customer to terminate or renegotiate their lease, offset by the write-off of the asset recorded due to the adjustment to straight-line rents over the lease term. Same Store Property NOI is adjusted to include an allocation of property management expenses for our consolidated properties based on the property management services provided to each property (generally, based on a percentage of revenues). On consolidation, these amounts are eliminated and the actual costs of providing property management and leasing services are recognized as part of our consolidated rental expense. |

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
20 rewritten, 9 added, 6 removed, 18 unchanged
Our sensitivity analysis estimates the exposure to market risk sensitive instruments assuming a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates or interest rates at December 31, [removed: 2022.][added: 2023.]
[removed: Foreign] [added: Foreign] Currency [removed: Risk][added: Risk]
Additionally, we hedge our foreign currency risk by entering into derivative financial [removed: instruments] [added: instruments, such as foreign currency contracts,] that we designate as net investment hedges, as these amounts offset the translation adjustments on the underlying net assets of our foreign investments.
At December 31, [removed: 2022,] [added: 2023,] after consideration of our ability to borrow in the foreign currencies in which we invest and also derivative and nonderivative financial instruments as discussed in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, we had minimal net equity denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar.
For the year ended December 31, [removed: 2022, $975] [added: 2023, $546] million or [removed: 16%] [added: 6.8%] of our total consolidated revenue was denominated in foreign currencies.
We enter into [removed: other] foreign currency [removed: contracts,] [added: contracts that we do not designate,] such as forwards, to reduce [added: the impact from] fluctuations in foreign currency associated with the translation of the future earnings of our international subsidiaries.
[removed: We have forward] [added: At December 31, 2023, we had foreign currency] contracts [removed: that were not designated as hedges,] denominated principally in British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, euro and Japanese yen, [removed: and have] [added: with] an aggregate notional amount of $1.6 [removed: billion to mitigate risk associated with the translation of the future earnings of our subsidiaries denominated in these currencies.][added: billion.]
[removed: The] [added: As we do not designate these foreign currency contracts as hedges, the] gain or loss on settlement [removed: of these contracts] is included in our earnings and offsets the lower or higher translation of earnings from our investments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
Although the impact to net earnings is mitigated through higher translated U.S. dollar earnings from these currencies, a weakening of the U.S. dollar against these currencies by 10% could result in a [removed: $164] [added: $162] million cash payment on settlement of these contracts.
[removed: Interest] [added: Interest] Rate [removed: Risk][added: Risk]
At December 31, [removed: 2022, $21.1] [added: 2023, $26.9] billion of our debt bore interest at fixed rates and therefore the fair value of these instruments was affected by changes in market interest rates.
At December 31, [removed: 2022, $3.3] [added: 2023, $2.7] billion of our debt bore interest at variable rates.

At December 31, [removed: 2022,] [added: 2023,] we owned or had investments in, on a wholly-owned basis or through co-investment ventures, properties and development projects expected to total approximately 1.2 billion square feet across the following geographies:

The primary driver of our revenue [removed: growth, outside of the Duke Transaction,] [added: growth] will be [added: the] rolling [added: of] in-place leases to current market rents when leases expire, as discussed further below.
We believe our active portfolio management, combined with the skills of our property, leasing, maintenance, [removed: capital,] energy, sustainability and risk management teams allow us to maximize NOI across our portfolio.
[added: Development.] Given the scarcity of modern logistics facilities in our target markets, our development business provides the opportunity to build to the [added: evolving] requirements of our [removed: current and future] customers while deepening our market presence.
We believe we have a competitive advantage due to (i) the strategic locations of our global land bank and redevelopment sites; (ii) the development expertise of our local teams; (iii) the depth of our customer relationships; (iv) our ability to integrate sustainable design features that [removed: result in cost-savings and] [added: provide] operational efficiencies for our customers; and (v) our procurement capabilities that allow us to secure high-demand construction materials at lower cost.

Promote revenues are recognized when earned at the end of the promote period for the specific co-investment ventures.
(1)
Net effective rent ("NER") is calculated at the beginning of the lease using estimated total cash base rent to be received over the term and annualized and excludes amortization of fair value lease adjustments from acquisitions.
Rent change represents the percentage change in net effective rental rates (average rate over the lease term), on new and renewed leases, commenced during the period compared with previous net effective rental rates in that same space.
(2) Included in 2022 and 2023 were significant promotes earned in Europe and the U.S, respectively.
We do not have any significant promote opportunities in 2024.
Rent Growth. We expect rents in our markets to continue to increase due to demand and low vacancy.
Due to strong market rent growth over the last several years, our in-place leases have considerable upside potential to drive future organic NOI growth.
This is evident in the positive rent change we have experienced in every quarter since 2013 and was significant to our operating results over the last several years.
We estimate that our lease mark-to-market is approximately 57% (on an NER basis), which represents the growth rate from in-place rents to current market rents based on our share of the O&M portfolio at December 31, 2023.
Therefore, even if there was no additional market rent growth in the future, we expect our lease renewals to translate into significant increases in future rental income.
Value Creation from Development. The global nature of our development program provides a wide landscape of opportunities to pursue based on our judgment of market conditions, opportunities and risks.
One of the ways in which we create value is through our focus on sourcing well-located land and redevelopment sites through acquisition opportunities, including our innovative approach with Covered Land Plays ("CLP"), which are income producing assets acquired with the intention to redevelop for higher and better use as industrial properties.
Based on our current estimates, our consolidated land, including options and CLP, has the potential to support the development of $35.7 billion ($40.0 billion on an O&M basis) of TEI of new logistics space.
Strategic Capital Advantages. The co-investment ventures provide additional capital from third parties that we can use to grow our company, contribute to self-funding our development activities through the sale of newly developed assets to these vehicles and produce substantial fees for our management of the assets.
At December 31, 2023, the gross book value of the operating portfolio held by our nine unconsolidated co-investment ventures was $53.1 billion across 507 million square feet.

*G&A Expenses* is a line item in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Balance Sheet Strength. At December 31, 2023, the weighted average remaining maturity of our consolidated debt was 9 years and the weighted average interest rate was 3.0%.
Prior to the current rising interest rate environment, we were able to take advantage of lower interest rates through our refinancing activities and substantially addressed our debt maturities until 2026.
At December 31, 2023, we had total available liquidity of $6.0 billion.
We continue to maintain low leverage as a percentage of our real estate investments and our market capitalization.
As a result of our low leverage, available liquidity and investment capacity in the co-investment ventures, we have significant ability to capitalize on opportunistic value-added investments as they arise.
Our Scale Drives Efficiency. We have scalable systems and infrastructure in place to grow both our consolidated and O&M portfolios with limited incremental G&A expense.
We use adjusted G&A expenses as a percentage of the O&M portfolio (based on gross book value) to measure and evaluate the overhead costs associated with the O&M portfolio.
We believe we can continue to grow NOI and strategic capital revenues organically and through accretive development and acquisition activity while further reducing G&A as a percentage of our investments in real estate.
As shown in the graph above, the acquisition of Duke Realty Corporation and Duke Realty Limited Partnership (collectively "Duke" or the "Duke Transaction") on October 3, 2022 is an example of this.
We increased our O&M portfolio significantly in the fourth quarter of 2022 as a result of the acquisition and had minimal increases to G&A expenses.
This includes investments in early and growth-stage companies that are focused on emerging technologies for the logistics sector.
Through Prologis Essentials, we support our customers through service and product offerings, including innovative solutions to operations and energy and sustainability needs that can make our customers’ decision process easier while progressing on their environmental goals.

The nature of the services we are providing to our customers is expanding.
2022 Significant Acquisition
On October 3, 2022, we acquired Duke Realty Corporation and Duke Realty Limited Partnership (collectively “Duke”) through a merger transaction that we refer to as the “Duke Transaction” and is detailed in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
Our financial condition and operating results include the Duke properties subsequent to the acquisition date.
The Duke portfolio was primarily comprised of logistics real estate assets, including 494 industrial operating properties, aggregating 144 million square feet and was highly complementary to our U.S. portfolio in terms of product quality, location and growth potential.
There was approximately 15 million square feet of non-strategic industrial operating properties that we do not intend to hold long-term and are classified as other real estate investments.
The portfolio also included properties under development, land for future development and investments in other ventures.
The acquisition expanded our presence in target markets such as Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta, South Florida and Southern California.
The total acquisition price, including transaction costs, was $23.2 billion and was funded through the issuance of equity based on the value of the Prologis, Inc. common stock issued using the closing price on September 30, 2022 and the assumption of debt.
As a result of the closely aligned portfolios and similar business strategy and our ability to scale, we integrated the Duke portfolio while adding minimal property management and general and administrative expenses (“G&A”).
Overview

Rental Operations.
Development.
| • | Rent Growth. We expect rents in our markets to continue to increase due to healthy demand combined with low vacancy. Due to strong market rent growth over the last several years, our in-place leases have considerable upside potential to drive future organic NOI growth. We estimate that our lease mark-to-market is approximately 67% (on a net effective basis), which represents the growth rate from in-place rents to current market rents based on our share of the O&M portfolio at December 31, 2022. Therefore, even if there was no additional market rent growth in the future, we expect our lease renewals to translate into significant increases in future income. We have experienced positive rent change on rollover (comparing the net effective rent (“NER”) of the new lease to the prior lease for the same space) in every quarter since 2013. |
| • | Value Creation from Development. A successful development and redevelopment program requires sourcing well-located land and redevelopment sites through acquisition opportunities, including our innovative approach with Covered Land Plays, which are income producing assets acquired with the intention to redevelop for higher and better use as industrial properties. Our investment in the development portfolio was $4.2 billion at December 31, 2022. We believe that the carrying value of our land bank is below its current fair value. Based on our current estimates, our consolidated land, including options and Covered Land Plays, has the potential to support the development of $34.2 billion ($39.0 billion on an O&M basis) of TEI of new logistics space. The global nature of our development program provides a wide landscape of opportunities to pursue based on our judgement of market conditions, opportunities and risks. |
We expect to create value as we build new properties.
| • | Balance Sheet Strength. The Duke Transaction increased the strength and size of our balance sheet while allowing us to maintain our low leverage. At December 31, 2022, the weighted average remaining maturity of our consolidated debt was 9 years and the weighted average interest rate was 2.5%, primarily as a result of our refinancing activities over the last several years. Through our refinancing activities we have substantially addressed all our debt maturities until 2026 and have taken advantage of previously low interest rates. At December 31, 2022, we had total available liquidity of $4.1 billion. We continue to maintain low leverage as a percentage of our real estate investments and our market capitalization. As a result of our low leverage, available liquidity and investment capacity in the co-investment ventures, we have significant capacity to capitalize on opportunistic value-added investments as they arise. |
| • | Economies of Scale from Growth. We have scalable systems and infrastructure in place to grow both our consolidated and O&M portfolios with limited incremental G&A expense. We use adjusted G&A expenses as a percentage of the O&M portfolio (based on gross book value) to measure and evaluate our overhead costs. We believe we can continue to grow NOI and strategic capital revenues organically and through accretive development and acquisition activity while further reducing G&A as a percentage of our investments in real estate. The acquisition of the Duke portfolio in 2022 is a key example of this, where we increased our O&M portfolio by over 20% in the fourth quarter of 2022 and had minimal increases to G&A expenses, resulting in lower G&A expenses as a percentage of investments in real estate. While we plan to make future investments in our new lines of business through Prologis Essentials, we expect to maintain our operational efficiency. |

Item 1C. Cybersecurity
0 rewritten, 21 added, 0 removed, 0 unchanged
New section this year
Due to our reliance on digital technology and electronic communications to run our business, cybersecurity threats and incidents pose an ongoing and escalating risk to our internal and third-party provided information systems and data, reputation and shareholder value, results of operations and financial condition.
Our Chief Technology Officer, who reports directly to our Chief Executive Officer, holds over 25 years of experience in information technology, specifically infrastructure, information security and fraud, and identity solutions at large global companies, and our Vice President of Information Technology (“IT”) Governance, who reports to our Chief Technology Officer, holds 20 years of experience in various information security roles.
Together, our Chief Technology Officer and Vice President of IT Governance ("IT leadership") oversee and lead our information security program and our business strategy, financial planning and capital allocation around our cybersecurity risk management and governance practices.
We also have an established Incident Response Team (“IRT”) to respond to and manage cybersecurity events.
This team includes our IT leadership as well as senior leadership from our accounting, legal, corporate communications and risk management departments with subject-matter expertise and established tenure at Prologis in their respective areas.
The IRT is tasked with taking appropriate action to safeguard the integrity of our information systems, data and network resources, investigate whether a breach occurred, define disclosures, communicate effectively with key audiences, including the Board as necessary, mitigate cybersecurity incident risks and provide a resolution through our
[Table of Contents](#toc_page)
cybersecurity incident communication protocols.
Additionally, on an annual basis the IRT is involved and engaged in security initiatives, including tabletop exercises facilitated both internally and externally, to stay relevant on current practices in the areas of cybersecurity.
The processes implemented by our IT leadership and IRT to oversee and identify cybersecurity risks are based on the Prologis Information Security Policy governed by the NIST Cybersecurity Framework.
The framework focuses on five key categories of cybersecurity risk management and governance: (i) identify: develop an organizational understanding to manage cybersecurity risk to systems, people, assets, data and capabilities; (ii) protect: develop and implement appropriate safeguards to ensure delivery of critical services; (iii) detect: develop and implement appropriate activities to identify the occurrence of a cybersecurity event; (iv) respond: develop and implement appropriate activities to take actions regarding a detected cybersecurity incident; and (v) recover: develop and implement appropriate activities to maintain plans for resilience and to restore any capabilities or service that were impaired due to a cybersecurity incident.
This framework is utilized within our organization as part of an integrated risk management program that involves participation from employees, to our Board and third-party service providers, with whom we have protocols in place to mitigate cybersecurity incident risks within our supply chain through the products and services we provide and use.
Additionally, all employees and contractors are required to attend mandatory cybersecurity training on an annual basis.
Our IT leadership reports to the Board on an annual basis on cybersecurity matters and, as necessary, when incidents arise in accordance with our cybersecurity incident communication protocols.
Our Board, specifically our Audit Committee, oversees cybersecurity risks and we believe contains the necessary expertise to perform those duties, including specific industry experience within information technology.
Additionally, Prologis’ cybersecurity risk management practices are reviewed and benchmarked against its peers through regular participation in a third-party security benchmarking survey.
Our IT infrastructure is externally audited as part of our Sarbanes-Oxley audit process and our controls include information security standards.
We also maintain standalone cybersecurity insurance and strive to adhere to local cybersecurity regulations in all the countries we do business.
We believe that risks from cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents, have not materially affected, and are not reasonably likely to materially affect Prologis, including its business strategy, results of operations or financial condition.
Please refer to “*Our business and operations could suffer in the event of system failures or cybersecurity attacks*” under Item 1A.

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter.
Duke Realty transaction
As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, on October 3, 2022 Prologis, Inc. and Prologis, L.P. acquired Duke Realty Corporation and Duke Realty Limited Partnership (collectively the “Duke Realty transaction”) for $23.2 billion and the transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition.
In asset acquisitions, the Company measures the real estate assets acquired based on their cost or total consideration exchanged and any excess or bargain consideration is allocated to the real estate properties and related lease intangibles on a relative fair value basis.
The components of the acquisition include an initial allocation to investments in real estate properties acquired based on fair value and an initial allocation of that fair value to buildings and land.
The Company determines fair value of the real estate properties based on the expected future cash flows of the property and various characteristics of the markets where the property is located utilizing an income approach methodology, which may be a discounted cash flow analysis or applying a capitalization rate to the estimated net operating income of a property.
We identified the evaluation of the fair value allocated to investments in real estate properties acquired, including the allocation of the property fair value to land and building, in the Duke Realty transaction as a critical audit matter.
Evaluating the fair value amounts estimated by the Company in the allocation involved complex auditor judgment as a result of measurement uncertainty.
Specifically, testing significant assumptions of market rents and capitalization rates related to investments in real estate and testing the allocation of property fair value to land and building required specialized skills and knowledge.
We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls over the Company’s fair value estimation process for investments in real estate properties, including land and building.
This included controls related to the determination of amounts allocated to land and building and determination of market rents and capitalization rates used to estimate the fair value of investments in real estate properties.
For a selection of investments in real estate properties we involved valuation professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in:
| | • | Comparing the Company’s determination of the fair value of investments in real estate properties to sales prices from available property sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| | • | Comparing the Company’s market rent and capitalization rate assumptions used in the determination of the fair value of investments in real estate properties to available leasing information, industry research publications and inquiries of market participants |
| | • | Comparing the Company’s determination of the fair value of land to sales prices from available land sales |
| | • | Comparing the Company’s determination of the fair value of building to developed ranges of estimates based on market data, such as industry guides used for developing replacement building values. |
