| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
| ORGANIZATION | ORGANIZATION Urban Edge Properties (“UE”, “Urban Edge” or the “Company”) (NYSE: UE) is a Maryland real estate investment trust focused on owning, managing, acquiring, developing, and redeveloping retail real estate in urban communities, primarily in the Washington, D.C. to Boston corridor. Urban Edge Properties LP (“UELP” or the “Operating Partnership”) is a Delaware limited partnership formed to serve as UE’s majority-owned partnership subsidiary and to own, through affiliates, all of the Company’s real estate properties and other assets. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Urban Edge Properties and UELP and their consolidated entities/subsidiaries. The Operating Partnership’s capital includes general and common limited partnership interests in the operating partnership (“OP Units”). As of December 31, 2023, Urban Edge owned approximately 95.4% of the outstanding common OP Units with the remaining limited OP Units held by members of management, Urban Edge’s Board of Trustees and contributors of property interests acquired. Urban Edge serves as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The third-party unitholders have limited rights over the Operating Partnership such that they do not have characteristics of a controlling financial interest. As such, the Operating Partnership is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and the Company is the primary beneficiary which consolidates it. The Company’s only investment is the Operating Partnership. The VIE’s assets can be used for purposes other than the settlement of the VIE’s obligations and the Company’s partnership interest is considered a majority voting interest. As of December 31, 2023, our portfolio consisted of 71 shopping centers, two outlet centers, two malls and one industrial building totaling approximately 17.1 million sf, which is inclusive of a 95% controlling interest in Walnut Creek, CA (Mt. Diablo), and an 82.5% controlling interest in Sunrise Mall, in Massapequa, NY.

| BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND COMBINATION | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for annual financial information and with the instructions of Form 10-K. The consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 reflect the consolidation of the Company, the Operating Partnership, wholly-owned subsidiaries and those entities in which we have a controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In accordance with ASC 205 Presentation of Financial Statements, certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation. Our primary business is the ownership, management, acquisition, development, and redevelopment of retail shopping centers and malls. We do not distinguish our primary business or group our operations on a geographical basis for purposes of measuring performance. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) reviews operating and financial information at the individual operating segment. We aggregate all of our properties into one reportable segment due to their similarities with regard to the nature and economics of the properties, tenants and operations, as well as long-term average financial performance.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
12 Months Ended |
|---|---|
Dec. 31, 2023 | |
| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most critical accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates and assumptions as to future uncertainties and, therefore, may result in actual amounts that differ from estimates include acquisitions of real estate and valuation of real estate. For more information on these estimates and policies refer to Part II, Item 7 “Critical Accounting Estimates” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Real Estate — Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as they are incurred. Significant renovations that improve or extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized. As real estate is undergoing redevelopment activities, all property operating expenses directly associated with and attributable to the redevelopment, including interest, are capitalized to the extent the capitalized costs of the property do not exceed the estimated fair value of the property when completed. If the cost of the redeveloped property, including the net book value of the existing property, exceeds the estimated fair value of redeveloped property, the excess is charged to impairment expense. The capitalization period begins when redevelopment activities are under way and ends when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives which range from to 40 years. Upon the acquisition of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, identified intangibles, such as acquired above and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and assumption of liabilities and we allocate the purchase price based on these assessments on a relative fair value basis. We assess fair value based on estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions. We record acquired intangible assets (including acquired above-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and acquired intangible liabilities (including below-market leases) at their estimated fair value. We amortize identified intangibles that have finite lives over the period they are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the property or business acquired. Our properties and development projects are individually evaluated for impairment quarterly, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such events and changes include macroeconomic conditions, operating performance, and environmental and regulatory changes, which may result in property operational disruption and could indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis taking into account the appropriate capitalization rate in determining a future terminal value. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the property’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value. Estimated fair value may be based on discounted future cash flows utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates and, in addition to available market information, third-party appraisals, broker selling estimates or sale agreements under negotiation. Impairment analyses are based on our current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the analyses are prepared. If our estimates of the projected future cash flows change based on uncertain market conditions, our evaluation of impairment losses may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements. Cash and Cash Equivalents — Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities. The majority of our cash and cash equivalents consist of (i) deposits at major commercial banks, including money market accounts, which may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit, (ii) United States Treasury Bills, and (iii) Certificate of Deposits placed through an Account Registry Service (“CDARS”). To date we have not experienced any losses on our invested cash. Restricted Cash — Restricted cash consists of security deposits and cash escrowed under loan agreements for debt service, real estate taxes, property insurance, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, capital expenditures and cash held for potential Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 tax deferred exchange transactions. Tenant and Other Receivables and Changes in Collectibility Assessment — Tenant receivables include unpaid amounts billed to tenants, disputed enforceable charges and accrued revenues for future billings to tenants for property expenses. We evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and disputed enforceable charges on both a lease-by-lease and a portfolio-level, which result from the inability of tenants to make required payments under their operating lease agreements. We recognize changes in the collectibility assessment of these operating leases as adjustments to rental revenue in accordance with ASC 842 Leases. Management exercises judgment in assessing collectibility and considers payment history, current credit status and publicly available information about the financial condition of the tenant, among other factors. Tenant receivables, and receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents, are written-off directly when management deems the collectibility of substantially all future lease payments from a specific lease is not probable, at which point, the Company will begin recognizing revenue from such leases prospectively, based on actual amounts received. This write-off effectively reduces cumulative non-cash rental income recognized from the straight-lining of rents since lease commencement. If the Company subsequently determines that it is probable it will collect substantially all of the lessee’s remaining lease payments under the lease term, the Company will reinstate the receivables balance, including those arising from the straight-lining of rents. Deferred Leasing Costs — Deferred leasing costs include incremental costs of a lease that would have not been incurred if the lease had not been executed, including broker and sale commissions, and contingent legal fees. Such costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases as depreciation and amortization expense on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Deferred leasing costs also includes lease incentives that can be used at the discretion of the tenant. Lease incentives are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related leases as a reduction to rental revenue on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Deferred Financing Costs — Deferred financing costs and debt issuance costs include fees associated with the issuance of our mortgage loans and our revolving credit agreement. Such fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related agreements as a component of interest expense, which approximates the effective interest rate method, in accordance with the terms of the agreement. Deferred financing costs associated with the revolving credit agreement are included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing costs associated with our mortgage loans are included in Mortgages payable, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Revenue Recognition — We have the following revenue sources and revenue recognition policies: •Rental revenue: Rental revenue comprises revenue from fixed and variable lease payments, as designated within tenant operating leases in accordance with ASC 842 Leases, as described further in our Leases accounting policy in Note 3 to the audited consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. •Rental revenue deemed uncollectible: We evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and disputed enforceable charges on both a lease-by-lease and a portfolio-level, which result from the inability of tenants to make required payments under their operating lease agreements. We recognize changes in the collectibility assessment of these operating leases as adjustments to rental revenue in accordance with ASC 842. •Other income: Other income is generated in connection with certain services provided to tenants for which we earn a fee as well as management and development fee income from contractual property management agreements with third parties, and certain miscellaneous income that pertains to our operations. This revenue is recognized as the services are transferred in accordance with ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Leases — We have approximately 1,000 operating leases at our properties, which generate rental income from tenants and operating cash flows for the Company. Our tenant leases are dependent on the Company, as lessor, agreeing to provide our tenants with the right to control the use of our real estate assets, as lessees. Our real estate assets are comprised of retail shopping centers, malls and an industrial building. Tenants agree to use and control their agreed upon space for their business purposes. Thus, our tenants obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of our shopping center space and have the right to direct how and for what purpose the real estate space is used throughout the period of use. Given these contractual terms, the Company has determined that all tenant contracts of this nature contain a lease. The Company assesses lease classification for each new and modified lease. All new and modified leases which commenced in the year ended December 31, 2023 have been assessed and classified as operating leases. Contractual rent increases of renewal options are often fixed at the time of the initial lease agreement which may result in tenants being able to exercise their renewal options at amounts that are less than the fair value of the rent at the date of renewal. In addition to fixed base rents, certain rental income derived from our tenant leases is variable and may be dependent on percentage rent or the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). Variable lease payments from percentage rents are earned by the Company in the event the tenant's gross sales exceed certain amounts. Terms of percentage rent are agreed upon in the tenant's lease and will vary based on the tenant's sales. Variable lease payments dependent on the CPI, will change in accordance with the corresponding increase or decrease in CPI if negotiated and agreed upon in the tenant's lease. Variable lease payments dependent on percentage rent and the CPI were $5.5 million and $9.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Variable lease payments also arise from tenant expense reimbursements, which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses, common area maintenance expenses, real estate taxes, insurance and capital improvements of the respective property and amounted to $103.7 million and $103.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company accounts for variable lease payments as rental revenue on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income in the period in which the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occur. The Company also has twenty properties in its portfolio either completely or partially on land or in a building that are owned by third parties. These properties are leased or subleased to us pursuant to ground leases, building leases or easements, with remaining terms ranging from to 76 years and provide us the right to operate each such property. We also lease or sublease real estate for our two corporate offices with remaining terms of less than one year. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are recorded for these leases, which represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from these leases. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. The initial measurement of a ROU asset may differ from the initial measurement of the lease liability due to initial direct costs, prepaid lease payments and lease incentives. As of December 31, 2023, no other contracts have been identified as leases. Our leases often offer renewal options, which we assess against relevant economic factors to determine whether the Company is reasonably certain of exercising or not exercising the option. Lease payments associated with renewal periods, for which the Company has determined are reasonably certain of being exercised, are included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset. For finance leases and operating leases, the discount rate applied to measure each ROU asset and lease liability is based on the incremental borrowing rate of the lease due to the rate implicit in the lease not being readily determinable. The Company initially considers the general economic environment and factors in various financing and asset specific secured borrowings so that the overall incremental borrowing rate is appropriate to the intended use of the lease. Certain expenses derived from these leases are variable and are not included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset, but are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. These variable lease payments consist of payments for real estate taxes and common area maintenance, which is dependent on projects and activities at each individual property under ground or building lease. Noncontrolling Interests — Noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries represent the portion of equity that we do not own in those entities that we consolidate. We identify our noncontrolling interests separately within the equity section on the consolidated balance sheets. Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership include OP units and limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership in the form of LTIP unit awards classified as equity. Variable Interest Entities — Certain entities that do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, or for which the equity owners as a group lack any one of the following characteristics: (i) the power, through voting rights or similar rights, to direct the activities of a legal entity that most significantly impacts the entity’s economic performance, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the legal entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the legal entity, qualify as VIEs. VIEs are required to be consolidated by their primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact economic performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The consolidated financial statements reflect the consolidation of VIEs in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Management uses its judgment when determining if we are the primary beneficiary of, or have a controlling financial interest in, an entity in which we have a variable interest. Factors considered in determining whether we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance include voting rights, involvement in day-to-day capital and operating decisions and the extent of our involvement in the entity. Excluding the Operating Partnership, the Company had two entities that met the criteria of a VIE in which we held variable interests as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. These entities are VIEs primarily because the noncontrolling interests do not have substantive kick-out or participating rights and we control the significant operating decisions and consequently have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of these entities. As we also have the obligation to absorb the majority of the losses and/or the right to receive a majority of the benefits for these entities, they were consolidated in our financial statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. The majority of the operations of these VIEs are funded with cash flows generated by the properties and periodic cash contributions. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, excluding the Operating Partnership, the two consolidated VIEs had total assets of $47.2 million and $47.6 million, respectively and total liabilities of $20.3 million and $23.2 million, respectively. Earnings Per Share and Unit — Basic earnings per common share and unit is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders and unitholders by the weighted average common shares and units outstanding during the period. Unvested share-based payment awards that entitle holders to receive non-forfeitable dividends, such as our restricted stock awards, are classified as “participating securities.” Because the awards are considered participating securities, the Company and the Operating Partnership are required to apply the two-class method of computing basic and diluted earnings that would otherwise have been available to common shareholders and unitholders. Under the two-class method, earnings for the period are allocated between common shareholders and unitholders and other shareholders and unitholders, based on their respective rights to receive dividends. During periods of net loss, losses are allocated only to the extent the participating securities are required to absorb their share of such losses. Diluted earnings per common share and unit reflects the potential dilution of the assumed exercises of shares including stock options and unvested restricted shares to the extent they are dilutive. Share-Based Compensation — We grant stock options, LTIP units, OP units, deferred share units, restricted share awards and performance-based units to our officers, trustees and employees. The term of each award is determined by the compensation committee of our Board of Trustees (the “Compensation Committee”), but in no event can such term be longer than ten years from the date of grant. The vesting schedule of each award is determined by the Compensation Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, at the date of grant of the award. Dividends are paid on certain shares of unvested restricted stock, which makes the restricted stock a participating security. Fair value is determined, depending on the type of award, using either the Black-Scholes option-pricing model or the Monte Carlo method, both of which are intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date. In using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, expected volatilities and dividend yields are primarily based on available implied data and peer group companies’ historical data. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Compensation expense for restricted share awards is based on the fair value of our common shares at the date of the grant and is recognized ratably over the vesting period. For grants with a graded vesting schedule or a cliff vesting schedule, we have elected to recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis. Share-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. When the Company issues common shares as compensation, it receives a like number of common units from the Operating Partnership. Accordingly, the Company’s ownership in the Operating Partnership will increase based on the number of common shares awarded under our 2015 Omnibus Share Plan. As a result of the issuance of common units to the Company for share-based compensation, the Operating Partnership accounts for share-based compensation in the same manner as the Company. Income Taxes — The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Code, commencing with the filing of its 2015 tax return for its tax year ended December 31, 2015. So long as the Company qualifies as a REIT under the Code, the Company will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on net taxable income that it distributes annually to its shareholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent taxable years. The Company is subject to certain foreign and state and local income taxes, in particular income taxes arising from its operating activities in Puerto Rico, which are included in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. In addition, the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) is subject to income tax at regular corporate rates. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not. The Company applies the FASB’s guidance relating to uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a Company’s financial statements. Under this guidance the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, and accounting in interim periods. The Company records interest and penalties relating to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. Concentration of Credit Risk — A concentration of credit risk arises in our business when a national or regionally-based tenant occupies a substantial amount of space in multiple properties owned by us. In that event, if the tenant suffers a significant downturn in its business, it may become unable to make its contractual rent payments to us, exposing us to potential losses in rental revenue, expense recoveries, and percentage rent. Further, the impact may be magnified if the tenant is renting space in multiple locations. Generally, we do not obtain security from our national or regionally-based tenants in support of their lease obligations to us. We regularly monitor our tenant base to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. None of our tenants accounted for more than 10% of total revenues in the year ended December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, The Home Depot, Inc. was our largest tenant with six stores which comprised an aggregate of 770,742 sf and accounted for approximately $21.5 million, or 5.2% of our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging — At times, the Company may use derivative financial instruments to manage and mitigate exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on our variable rate debt. These derivatives are measured at fair value and are recognized as assets or liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, depending on the Company’s rights or obligations under the respective derivative contracts. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative varies based on eligibility and Company elections, including the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate the derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting, and whether the hedge relationship has satisfied certain criteria to be deemed an effective hedge. Effectiveness of the hedging relationship is assessed on a quarterly basis by a third party to determine if the relationship still meets the criteria to be considered an effective hedge. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. In a cash flow hedge, hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the earnings effect of the hedged transaction. A derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge is adjusted to fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The change in fair value, net of the amortization of the purchase price of the instrument, is deemed to be the effective portion of change and is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”) in the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, with the amortization of the purchase price included in interest and debt expense. Cash flows from the derivative are included in the prepaid expenses and other assets, or accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities line item in the statement of cash flows, depending on whether the hedged item is recognized as an asset or a liability. For further information on the Company’s derivative instruments and hedge designations, refer to Note 9. Recently Issued Accounting Literature In March 2020 and January 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (ASC 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, and ASU 2021-01 Reference Rate Reform (ASC 848): Scope which provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform in contracts and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met.

| ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS | ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS Acquisitions During the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we closed on the following acquisitions:
(1) The total purchase price for the properties acquired in the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 include $3.2 million and $0.6 million of transaction costs incurred related to the transactions, respectively. (2) Pertains to the buyout and termination of a ground lease for certain land parcels at our Sunrise Mall property in which the Company previously held a lessee position. (3) This outparcel is included with Sunrise Mall in our total property count. The Company has an 82.5% controlling interest in the property with the remaining 17.5% owned by others. On October 23, 2023, the Company closed on the acquisition of two properties, Shoppers World and Gateway Center, for a purchase price of $312.2 million, including transaction costs. The two centers comprise 1.4 million sf and are located in the greater Boston area. The acquisitions were partially funded using proceeds from the disposition of the East Hanover Warehouses portfolio in a forward Section 1031 exchange, with the balance being financed by drawing on the Company’s unsecured line of credit. We entered into a reverse Section 1031 agreement with third-party intermediaries for the portion financed by the Company’s unsecured line of credit, which, for a maximum of 180 days, allows us to defer, for tax purposes, gains on the sale of other properties identified and sold within the period. In addition to the VIEs mentioned in Note 3, pursuant to the exchange agreement, the properties are in possession of an Exchange Accommodation Titleholder (“EAT”) and are classified as VIEs until the earlier of the termination of the agreement or 180 days after the acquisition date. The EAT is the legal owner of the properties, however, we control the activities that most significantly impact the entities and retain all of the economic benefits and risks associated with the entities. Therefore, since the title of the properties will be transferred back to the Company and we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary of the VIEs, we have consolidated the VIEs and their operations as of the acquisition date. The reverse Section 1031 requirements were satisfied with the disposition of Freeport Commons on December 29, 2023 and the exchange agreements were terminated on January 2, 2024. In connection with the acquisition of Sunrise Mall, located in Massapequa, NY, in December 2020, the Company acquired a lessee position in a ground lease with Arzillo Trust comprising two outparcels of approximately 2.25 acres. On June 21, 2023, the Company purchased the underlying assets from Arzillo Trust for a purchase price of $2.1 million, including transaction costs, which was allocated to land. As a result of this transaction, the existing ground lease was terminated and the remaining balance of the right-of-use asset of $1.0 million was reclassed to land. On February 24, 2022, the Company acquired a 12,000 sf outparcel, located at 40 Carmans Road, that is adjacent to the entrance of our Sunrise Mall property in Massapequa, NY. On June 8, 2022, the Company closed on the acquisition of The Shops at Riverwood, a grocery-anchored shopping center located in the greater Boston area. The aggregate purchase price of the above property acquisitions have been allocated as follows:
(1) As of December 31, 2023, the remaining weighted average amortization periods of the identified intangible assets and identified intangible liabilities acquired in 2023 were 5.7 years and 29.8 years, respectively, and the remaining weighted average amortization periods of the identified intangible assets and identified intangible liabilities acquired in 2022 were 8.6 years and 15.3 years, respectively. Subsequent to December 31, 2023, the Company acquired Heritage Square, an unencumbered 87,000 sf shopping center located in Watchung, NJ, for a purchase price of $34 million. The property is anchored by Ulta and two TJX Companies concepts, HomeSense and Sierra Trading, and includes three outparcels with a fourth currently under construction. The acquisition was funded using cash on hand. Dispositions During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company disposed of two properties and one property parcel comprising 1.5 million sf for an aggregate sales price of $318 million. In connection with the dispositions and the release of escrow funds related to properties that were disposed of in prior periods, the Company recognized a gain on sale of real estate of $217.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. On December 29, 2023, the Company completed the sale of Freeport Commons, located in Freeport, NY, for a price of $78.5 million. The $43.1 million mortgage loan secured by the property was repaid at closing using proceeds from the sale. The sale of this property satisfied the remaining requirements of the Section 1031 exchange agreement entered into with the acquisitions of Shoppers World and Gateway Center on October 23, 2023, allowing for the deferral of capital gains from the sale for income tax purposes. On December 13, 2023, the Company sold a parcel of its Tonnelle Commons property located in North Bergen, NJ for a price of $22 million. The parcel comprised approximately 75,000 sf and included a self-storage facility. On October 20, 2023, the Company completed the sale of its East Hanover Warehouses portfolio for a price of $217.5 million. The East Hanover Warehouses comprised seven buildings, totaling 1.2 million sf. The proceeds from the disposition were used to pay off the $40.1 million loan secured by the property at closing and to partially fund the purchase of two properties, Shoppers World and Gateway Center, located in the greater Boston area. In connection with the sale, we entered into a forward Section 1031 exchange agreement with third-party intermediaries which allows us to defer, for tax purposes, the gain on sale of the property until the earlier of the termination of the agreement or 180 days after the date of the disposition. The forward 1031 requirements were satisfied with the Boston acquisitions on October 23, 2023 and the exchange agreement was terminated. During the year ended December 31, 2022, no dispositions were completed by the Company. We recognized a $0.4 million gain on sale of real estate in connection with the release of escrow funds related to properties that were disposed of in prior periods. Subsequent to December 31, 2023, the Company is under contract to sell its 95,000 sf property located in Hazlet, NJ for a price of $8.7 million, and its 127,000 sf industrial property located in Lodi, NJ for a price of $29.2 million.

| IDENTIFIED INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES | IDENTIFIED INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES The following table summarizes our identified intangible assets and liabilities:
Amortization of acquired below-market leases, net of acquired above-market leases resulted in rental income of $8.2 million, $6.7 million, and $55.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. On September 29, 2021, the Company entered into agreements to terminate certain leases, resulting in accelerated amortization of the related below-market intangible lease liabilities of $45.9 million which are included in rental revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021. The intangibles related to these leases were fully amortized and subsequently written-off in 2021. Amortization of acquired in-place leases and customer relationships resulted in depreciation and amortization expense of $13.5 million, $10.9 million, and $8.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

(10) On April 6, 2023, the Company refinanced the mortgage on the Outlets at Bergen Town Center with a new 7-year, $290 million loan. The net carrying amount of real estate collateralizing the above indebtedness amounted to approximately $1.5 billion as of December 31, 2023. Our mortgage loans contain covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness on these properties and in certain circumstances require lender approval of tenant leases and/or yield maintenance upon repayment prior to maturity. As of December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all debt covenants with the exception of those related to our mortgage on Kingswood Center which has been in default since May 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the principal repayments for the next five years and thereafter are as follows:
Revolving Credit Agreement On January 15, 2015, we entered into a $500 million Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with certain financial institutions. On March 7, 2017, we amended and extended the Agreement. The amendment increased the credit facility size by $100 million to $600 million and extended the maturity date to March 7, 2021 with two six-month extension options. On July 29, 2019, we entered into a second amendment to the Agreement to extend the maturity date to January 29, 2024 with two six-month extension options. On June 3, 2020, we entered into a third amendment to the Agreement, which among other things, modifies certain definitions and the measurement period for certain financial covenants to a trailing four-quarter period instead of the most recent quarter period annualized. On August 9, 2022, we restated and amended the Agreement, in order to, among other things, increase the credit facility size by $200 million to $800 million and extend the maturity date to February 9, 2027, with two -month extension options. Borrowings under the amended and restated Agreement are subject to interest at SOFR plus 1.05% to 1.50% and an annual facility fee of 15 to 30 basis points. Both the spread over SOFR and the facility fee are based on our current leverage ratio and are subject to change. The Agreement contains customary financial covenants including a maximum leverage ratio of 60% and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.5x. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company obtained five letters of credit issued under the Agreement, aggregating $30.1 million. The letters of credit that were issued were provided to mortgage lenders to secure the Company’s obligations in relation to certain reserves and capital requirements per the respective loan agreements. On October 23, 2023, the Company used its line of credit to partially finance the acquisition of two properties located in the greater Boston area. As of December 31, 2023, there was $153 million drawn under the Agreement related to these acquisitions with an available remaining balance of $616.9 million under the facility. The letters of credit issued under the Agreement have reduced the amount available under the facility but remain undrawn and no separate liability has been recorded in association with them. Financing costs associated with executing the Agreement of $5.1 million and $6.7 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, are included in the prepaid expenses and other assets line item of the consolidated balance sheets, as deferred financing costs, net. Financing Activity On November 20, 2023, the Company obtained a 6-year, $43.7 million non-recourse mortgage secured by its property Huntington Commons, located in Huntington, NY. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 6.29%. In connection with the financing, the Company obtained a letter of credit issued under our Revolving Credit Agreement for $3.8 million to serve as collateral to secure the Company’s obligation to the lender in relation to certain reserves and capital expenditures required per the loan agreement. As of December 31, 2023 the letter of credit remains undrawn and we have not recorded any liabilities associated with it. On June 7, 2023, the Company obtained a 10-year, $16 million non-recourse mortgage secured by its property Newington Commons, located in Newington, CT. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 6.0%. Refinancing Activity In April 2020, we notified the servicer of the $129 million non-recourse mortgage loan on Shops at Caguas in Puerto Rico that cash flow would be insufficient to service the debt and that we were unwilling to fund the shortfalls. In December 2020, the non-recourse mortgage loan was modified to convert the mortgage from an amortizing 4.43% loan to interest only payments, starting at 3.00% in 2021 and increasing 50 basis points annually until returning to 4.43% in 2024 and thereafter. The terms of the modification enabled the Company, at its option, to repay the loan at a discounted value of $72.5 million, beginning in August 2023 through the extended maturity date of February 2026. On August 30, 2023, the Company refinanced the mortgage secured by its property, Shops at Caguas, with a new 10-year, $82 million loan bearing interest at a fixed rate of 6.6%. The proceeds from the new loan were used to pay off the Company’s previous mortgage on the property. As a result of exercising the discounted payoff option, the Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of $43 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. In connection with the refinancing, the Company incurred $1.0 million of financing costs which are amortized over the term of the loan and are included in the mortgages payable line item on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023. On June 23, 2023, the Company refinanced the mortgage secured by its property, the Shops at Bruckner, with a new 6-year, $38 million loan bearing interest at a fixed rate of 6.0%. The proceeds from the new loan were used to pay off the Company’s previous mortgage on the property which had an outstanding balance of approximately $8.7 million. In connection with the refinancing, the Company obtained a letter of credit issued under our Revolving Credit Agreement for $9.8 million to serve as collateral to secure the Company’s obligation to the lender in relation to certain reserves and capital expenditures required per the loan agreement. As of December 31, 2023 the letter of credit remains undrawn and we have not recorded any liabilities associated with it. On April 6, 2023, the Company refinanced the mortgage loan secured by Bergen Town Center with a 7-year, $290 million loan at a fixed interest rate of 6.3%. The proceeds from the loan were used to pay down the Company’s previous mortgage on the property, which had an outstanding balance of $300 million, with the remainder paid using cash on hand. In connection with the refinancing, the Company obtained two letters of credit issued under our Revolving Credit Agreement aggregating $14.5 million to serve as collateral to secure the Company’s obligation to the lender in relation to certain leasing and capital expenditure reserves required per the loan agreement. As of December 31, 2023 the letters of credit remain undrawn and we have not recorded any liabilities associated with them. Mortgage Repayments On December 29, 2023, the Company completed the sale of Freeport Commons, located in Freeport, NY, for a price of $78.5 million and repaid the $43.1 million mortgage loan secured by the property at closing. As a result of the early payoff, the Company recognized a $0.8 million loss on extinguishment of debt for the year ended December 31, 2023. On November 29, 2023, the Company paid off the $20.6 million mortgage secured by its property, Hudson Mall, which was due to mature on December 1, 2023 and had a fixed interest rate of 5.07%. On October 20, 2023, the Company completed the sale of the East Hanover Warehouses portfolio for a sales price of $217.5 million and repaid the $40.1 million mortgage loan secured by the property at closing. As a result of the early payoff, the Company recognized a $0.6 million loss on extinguishment of debt for the year ended December 31, 2023. On June 23, 2023, the Company paid off the outstanding principal balance of the mortgage loan secured by its property, the Plaza at Cherry Hill, using proceeds from the refinancing of the Shops at Bruckner mortgage. Prior to the payoff, the $29 million loan had an interest rate of 8.75% and a maturity date of June 15, 2025. On January 2, 2024, the Company paid off three variable rate mortgage loans aggregating $75.7 million which were due to mature in the fourth quarter of 2024. The loans were secured by Hudson Commons, Greenbrook Commons, and Gun Hill Commons, and had interest rates of 7.34% on the payoff date. Mortgage on Kingswood Center In March 2023, an office tenant representing 50,000 sf (approximately 40% of the total gross leasable area) informed us that they intended to vacate in 2024, and a tenant representing 17,000 sf terminated their lease early effective April 17, 2023. As a result of these events, the Company notified the servicer that the projected cash flows generated by the property will be insufficient to cover debt service and that we were unwilling to fund the shortfalls. In May 2023, the loan was transferred to special servicing at the Company’s request, and per the terms of the loan agreement, we began to accrue default interest at a rate of 5% on the outstanding principal balance. As of December 31, 2023, the loan is in the foreclosure process and the Company has accrued default interest of $2.4 million which is included in the accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities line item of the consolidated balance sheets. Mortgage on The Outlets at Montehiedra In connection with the refinancing of the loan secured by The Outlets at Montehiedra in the second quarter of 2020, the Company provided a $12.5 million limited corporate guarantee. The guarantee is reduced commensurate with the loan amortization schedule and will reduce to zero in approximately 2.8 years. As of December 31, 2023, the remaining exposure under the guarantee is $6.1 million. There was no separate liability recorded related to this guarantee.

| INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Code, commencing with the filing of its 2015 tax return for its tax year ended December 31, 2015. So long as the Company qualifies as a REIT under the Code, the Company will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on net taxable income that it distributes annually to its shareholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent taxable years. The Company is subject to certain foreign and state and local income taxes, in particular income taxes arising from its operating activities in Puerto Rico, which are included in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. In addition, the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) is subject to income tax at regular corporate rates. The Company satisfied its REIT distribution requirement by distributing $0.64, $0.64 and $0.60 per common share in 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The distributions comprised a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.16 per common share declared for each quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively, as well as a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per common share declared for each quarter of 2021. The taxability of such dividends for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:
For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the REIT and other minority members are partners in the Operating Partnership. As such, the partners are required to report their share of taxable income on their respective tax returns. However, the Company maintains certain non-real estate operating activities that could not be performed by the REIT, and occur through the Company’s TRS, which is subject to federal, state and local income taxes. These income taxes are included in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the REIT was subject to Puerto Rico corporate income taxes on its allocable share of the Company’s Puerto Rico operating activities. The Puerto Rico corporate income tax consists of a flat 18.5% tax rate plus a graduated income surcharge tax for a maximum corporate income tax rate of 37.5%. In addition, the REIT is subject to a 10% branch profits tax on the earnings and profits generated from its allocable share of the Company’s Puerto Rico operating activities and such tax is included in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. On August 30, 2023, the Company completed a mortgage refinancing at its mall in Puerto Rico, the Shops at Caguas. As a result of the refinancing and the cancellation of indebtedness for tax purposes, the Company recognized a Puerto Rico income tax expense of $16.3 million, consisting of a current tax liability of $4.7 million and a deferred tax expense of $11.6 million. The deferred tax expense is attributable to a write-down of our Puerto Rico tax basis in the Shops at Caguas for a portion of the debt forgiven. Refer to Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information on the Shops at Caguas refinancing. A reduction of the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance is required if, based on the evidence available, it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management’s determination of the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the underlying temporary differences become deductible. As of December 31, 2023, with the exception of certain state and local deferred tax assets, management determined that it is more likely than not that all deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company recorded a valuation allowance against certain state and local deferred tax assets because management determined it is not more likely than not that these state and local deferred tax assets will be realized. There has been no change to the valuation allowance recorded against these state and local deferred tax assets during 2023. We account for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 Income Taxes on the basis of a two-step process whereby (i) we determine whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (ii) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, income before income taxes from the Company’s operating activities in the United States was $226.4 million and $41.2 million, respectively, and in Puerto Rico was $51.2 million and $9.1 million, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Puerto Rico income tax expense was $18.5 million, as compared to a Puerto Rico income tax expense of $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 due to the gain previously noted on the mortgage refinancing at the Shops at Caguas. The Company recognized a $0.7 million state and local income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2023 related to an income tax refund from a prior period. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax effect of temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of taxable assets and liabilities and for the tax effect of carried forward tax attributes such as net operating losses and tax credits. Income tax expense (benefit) for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 consists of the following:
Provision for income taxes differs from the amounts computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to consolidated net income before income taxes as follows:
(1) Federal statutory tax rate of 21% for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. Below is a table summarizing the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:

| LEASES | LEASES Leases as lessor We have approximately 1,000 operating leases at our retail shopping centers, malls and industrial properties which generate rental income from tenants and operating cash flows for the Company. Our tenant base comprises a diverse group of merchants including department stores, supermarkets, discounters, entertainment offerings, health clubs, DIY stores, in-line specialty shops, restaurants and other food and beverage vendors and service providers. Tenant leases under 10,000 sf generally have lease terms of 5 years or less. Tenant leases 10,000 sf or more are considered anchor leases and generally have lease terms of 10 to 25 years, with one or more renewal options available upon expiration of the initial lease term. Contractual rent increases for the renewal options are often fixed at the time of the initial lease agreement which may result in tenants being able to exercise their renewal options at amounts that are less than the fair value of the rent at the date of renewal. The components of rental revenue for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:
Property, plant and equipment under operating leases as lessor As of December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, substantially all of the Company’s real estate assets are subject to operating leases. Maturity analysis of lease payments as lessor The Company’s operating leases, including those with revenue recognized on a cash basis, are disclosed in the aggregate due to their consistent nature as real estate leases. As of December 31, 2023, the undiscounted cash flows to be received from lease payments of our operating leases on an annual basis for the next five years and thereafter are as follows:
Leases as lessee As of December 31, 2023, the Company had twenty properties in its portfolio either completely or partially on land or in a building owned by third parties. These properties are leased or subleased to us pursuant to ground leases, building leases or easements, with remaining terms ranging from to 76 years and provide us the right to operate the property. We also lease or sublease real estate for our two corporate offices with remaining terms of less than one year. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company reassessed the lease term of one of its ground leases due to our election to renew the ground lease and remeasured the lease liability by using revised inputs as of the reassessment date of the respective lease. As a result of the reassessment, the Company recorded an additional $1.1 million of operating lease ROU asset and corresponding lease liability related to the ground lease. The components of lease expense for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

| FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. The objective of fair value is to determine the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (the exit price). ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, we utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as consider counterparty credit risk in our assessment of fair value. Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets consist of one interest rate cap and one interest rate swap. We rely on third-party valuations that use market observable inputs, such as credit spreads, yield curves and discount rates, to assess the fair value of these instruments. In accordance with the fair value hierarchy established by ASC 820, these financial instruments have been classified as Level 2 as quoted market prices are not readily available for valuing the assets. The tables below summarize the recorded amount of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:
(1) Included in Prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Derivatives and Hedging When we designate a derivative as a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the instrument will be recognized in OCI until the gains or losses are reclassified to earnings. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges are adjusted to fair value through earnings. Cash flows from the derivative are included in the prepaid expenses and other assets, or accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities line item in the statement of cash flows, depending on whether the hedged item is recognized as an asset or a liability. As of December 31, 2023, the Company was a counterparty to two interest rate derivative agreements which have been designated as cash flow hedges. On June 23, 2022, in conjunction with the refinancing of one of our variable rate loans, we entered into a -year interest rate cap agreement (the “Cap Agreement”) with a third party to limit the maximum SOFR of our floating rate debt to 3%. The purchase price of the interest rate cap was approximately $0.3 million and is included in the prepaid expenses and other assets line item of the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022. In May 2023, the Company entered into a new -year interest rate cap agreement for a purchase price of $1.1 million, to replace the previous interest rate cap agreement which expired on July 1, 2023. The new cap went into effect July 3, 2023, and expires on July 1, 2025, and is included in the prepaid expenses and other assets line item of the consolidated balance sheets. On the date of the respective Cap Agreements, the Company elected to designate cash flow hedge accounting for each of these derivative instruments. The tables below summarize our derivative instruments, which are used to hedge the corresponding variable rate debt, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:
The table below summarizes the effect of our derivative instruments on our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022:
Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis There were no financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value Financial assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets include cash and cash equivalents and mortgages payable. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The fair value of mortgages payable is calculated based on current market prices and discounted cash flows at the current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings for the remaining term of such debt, which is provided by a third-party specialist. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is classified as Level 1 and the fair value of mortgages payable is classified as Level 2. The table below summarizes the carrying amounts and fair value of our level 2 financial instruments as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
(1) Carrying amounts exclude unamortized debt issuance costs of $12.6 million and $7.8 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Nonfinancial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis We assess the carrying value of our properties for impairment quarterly, and when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Such events and changes include macroeconomic conditions, operating performance, and environmental and regulatory changes, which may result in property operational disruption and could indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. During the first quarter of 2023, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $34.1 million on our property, Kingswood Center. The property, an office and retail center comprising 129,000 sf, was acquired in February 2020 and is located in Brooklyn, NY. In March of 2023, an office tenant representing 50,000 sf informed us that they intended to vacate in 2024, and a tenant representing 17,000 sf terminated their lease early effective April 17, 2023. As a result of these events and the uncertainty of the office market, we determined that the undiscounted future cash flows and future terminal value were less than the carrying value of the property. The impairment charge of $34.1 million was calculated as the difference between the asset’s individual carrying value and the estimated fair value of $49 million less estimated selling costs, which was based on the discounted future cash flows and future terminal value. The discounted cash flows and terminal value utilized a discount rate of 8% and capitalization rates of 6% for retail and 7% for office, which were corroborated by third-party valuations and market data. The impairment charge is recorded within the real estate impairment loss line item on our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. There were no impairment charges recognized during the year ended December 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized impairment charges on two retail properties that the Company was actively marketing. The Company recognized an impairment charge of $0.4 million on its property in Westfield, NJ which was sold on July 22, 2021. Additionally, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $0.1 million on its ground lease in Vallejo, CA which was sold on December 21, 2021. Prior to these dispositions, the carrying value of these assets exceeded the estimated fair value less costs to sell. The aggregated fair values of $7.9 million were based on sale agreements under negotiation with third-party buyers. The Company believes the inputs utilized to measure these fair values were reasonable in the context of applicable market conditions, however due to the significance of the unobservable inputs in the overall fair value measures, including market conditions and expectations for growth, the Company determined that such fair value measurements are classified as Level 3. Aggregate impairment charges of $34.1 million and $0.5 million are included as an expense within real estate impairment loss on our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2021, respectively.

| Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Legal Matters From time to time, we are a party to various legal proceedings, claims or regulatory inquiries and investigations arising out of, or incident to, our ordinary course of business. While we are unable to predict with certainty the outcome of any particular matter, management does not currently expect, when such matters are resolved, that our resulting exposure to loss contingencies, if any, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or consolidated financial position. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company settled an ongoing litigation matter pursuant to which it received a $10 million settlement payment related to unpaid rental income during the period of March 2020 through March 2021. The terms of the settlement are subject to a confidentiality agreement. Redevelopment and Anchor Repositioning The Company has 23 active development, redevelopment or anchor repositioning projects with total estimated costs of $168.1 million, of which $112.2 million remains to be funded as of December 31, 2023. We continue to monitor the stabilization dates of these projects, which can be impacted from economic conditions affecting our tenants, vendors and supply chains. We have identified future projects in our development pipeline, but we are under no obligation to execute and fund any of these projects and each of these projects is being further evaluated based on market conditions. Insurance The Company maintains numerous insurance policies including for general liability, property, pollution, acts of terrorism, trustees’ and officers’, cyber, workers’ compensation and automobile-related liabilities. However, all such policies are subject to terms, conditions, exclusions, deductibles and sub-limits, among other limiting factors. For example, the Company’s terrorism insurance excludes coverage for nuclear, biological, chemical or radiological terrorism events as defined by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act. Insurance premiums are typically charged directly to each of the properties but not all of the cost of such premiums are recovered. The Company is responsible for deductibles, losses in excess of insurance coverage, and the portion of premiums not reimbursable by tenants at our properties, which could be material. We continue to monitor the state of the insurance market and the scope and costs of available coverage. Certain insurance premiums have increased significantly and may continue to do so in the future. We cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms and expect premiums across most coverage lines to continue to increase in light of recent events including hurricanes and flooding in our core markets. The incurrence of uninsured losses, costs or uncovered premiums could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and consolidated financial position. Certain of our loans and other agreements contain customary covenants requiring the maintenance of insurance coverage. Although we believe that we currently have adequate insurance coverage for purposes of these agreements, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at reasonable costs in the future. If lenders or other counterparties insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain, such requirement could materially and adversely affect our ability to finance our properties and expand our portfolio. Environmental Matters Each of our properties has been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. Based on these assessments, we have accrued costs of $1.4 million and $1.6 million on our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, for remediation costs for environmental contamination at certain properties. While this accrual reflects our best estimates of the potential costs of remediation at these properties, there can be no assurance that the actual costs will not exceed these amounts. Although we are not aware of any other material environmental contamination, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites, or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant costs to us. Bankruptcies Although our rental revenue is supported by long-term leases, leases may be rejected in a bankruptcy proceeding and the related tenant stores may permanently vacate prior to lease expiration. In the event a tenant with a significant number of leases or square footage in our shopping centers files for bankruptcy and rejects its leases with us, we could experience a reduction in our revenues. We monitor the operating performance and rent collections of all tenants in our shopping centers, especially those tenants in arrears or operating retail formats that are experiencing significant changes in competition, business practice, or store closings in other locations. On April 23, 2023, Bed Bath & Beyond filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Bed Bath & Beyond had a total of six leases with us, including those with wholly-owned store concepts buybuy Baby and Harmon Face Values. Our three leases with Harmon Face Values, totaling 18,000 sf and which generated $0.5 million in annual rental revenue, were rejected effective April 2023 and the tenant has vacated the premises at all three locations. On July 19, 2023, an auction was held for the remaining three leases with Bed Bath & Beyond, resulting in the rejection of two of the leases which generated $2.5 million in annual rental revenue. The third lease, which generates $0.6 million in annual rental revenue, was bid on and assumed by a new operator who will continue to operate the store as a buybuy Baby. Letters of Credit As of December 31, 2023, the Company had five letters of credit issued under our Revolving Credit Agreement aggregating $30.1 million. These letters were provided to mortgage lenders to secure the Company’s obligations for certain capital requirements per the respective mortgage agreements. If a lender were to draw on a letter of credit, the Company would have the option to pay the capital commitment directly to the lender or to record the draw as a liability on its unsecured line of credit, bearing interest at SOFR plus an applicable margin per the Revolving Credit Agreement. As of December 31, 2023, the letters remain undrawn and there is no separate liability recorded in connection with their issuance.

EQUITY AND NONCONTROLLING INTEREST |

Dec. 31, 2023 | |
| Noncontrolling Interest [Abstract] | |
| EQUITY AND NONCONTROLLING INTEREST | EQUITY AND NONCONTROLLING INTEREST At-The-Market Program On August 15, 2022 the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into an equity distribution agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with various financial institutions acting as agents, forward sellers, and forward purchasers. Pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company may from time to time offer and sell, through the agents and forward sellers, the Company’s common shares, par value $0.01 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $250 million (the “ATM Program”). Concurrently with the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company entered into separate master forward confirmations (collectively, the “Master Confirmations”) with each of the forward purchasers. Sales under the ATM Program may be made from time to time, as needed, by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions or other transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings, in privately negotiated transactions, which may include block trades, or as otherwise agreed with the sales agents. The ATM Program replaces the Company’s previous at-the-market program established on June 7, 2021. The Equity Distribution Agreement provides that the Company may also enter into forward sale agreements pursuant to any Master Confirmation and related supplemental confirmations with the forward purchasers. In connection with any forward sale agreement, a forward purchaser will, at the Company’s request, borrow from third parties, through its forward seller, and sell a number of shares equal to the amount provided in such agreement. As of December 31, 2023, the Company has not issued any common shares under the ATM Program. Future sales will depend on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, market conditions, the trading price of our common shares, and our capital needs. The Company has no obligation to sell any shares under the ATM Program. On January 2, 2024, the Company issued 73,550 common shares at a weighted average price of $18.30 per share under its ATM Program, generating net cash proceeds of $1.3 million. Share Repurchase Program In March 2020, the Company’s Board of Trustees authorized a share repurchase program for up to $200 million of the Company’s common shares. Under the program, the Company may repurchase its shares from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-18. The amount and timing of the purchases will depend on a number of factors including the price and availability of the Company’s shares, trading volume and general market conditions. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, no shares were repurchased by the Company. All share repurchases by the Company were completed between March and April of 2020, and aggregated 5.9 million common shares at a weighted average share price of $9.22, for a total of $54.1 million. As of December 31, 2023 there was approximately $145.9 million remaining for share repurchases under this program. Units of the Operating Partnership The Operating Partnership’s capital includes general and common limited partnership interests in the operating partnership. As of December 31, 2023, Urban Edge owned approximately 95.4% of the outstanding common OP units with the remaining limited OP units held by members of management, Urban Edge’s Board of Trustees and contributors of property interests acquired. Urban Edge serves as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The third-party unitholders have limited rights over the Operating Partnership such that they do not have characteristics of a controlling financial interest. As such, the Operating Partnership is considered a VIE, and the Company is the primary beneficiary which consolidates it. The Company’s only investment is the Operating Partnership. The VIE’s assets can be used for purposes other than the settlement of the VIE’s obligations and the Company’s partnership interest is considered a majority voting interest. Dividends and Distributions During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company declared distributions on our common shares and OP units of $0.64 per share/unit. This comprised regular quarterly dividends of $0.16 per common share and OP unit declared for each quarter in 2023 and 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2021 the Company declared distributions on our common shares and OP units of $0.60 per share/unit. This comprised regular quarterly dividends of $0.15 per common share and OP unit declared for each quarter in 2021. We have a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “DRIP”), whereby shareholders may use their dividends to purchase shares. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, 5,421, 5,512 and 4,442 shares were issued under the DRIP, respectively. Noncontrolling Interests in Operating Partnership Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership reflected on the consolidated balance sheets of the Company are comprised of OP units and limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership in the form of LTIP unit awards. LTIP unit awards were granted to certain executives pursuant to our 2015 Omnibus Share Plan (the “Omnibus Share Plan”) and our 2018 Inducement Equity Plan (the “Inducement Plan”). OP units were issued to contributors in exchange for their property interests in connection with the Company’s property acquisitions in 2017. The total of the OP units and LTIP units represent a 4.3% weighted-average interest in the Operating Partnership for the year ended December 31, 2023. Holders of outstanding vested LTIP units may, from and after two years from the date of issuance, redeem their LTIP units for cash, or for the Company’s common shares on a one-for-one basis, solely at our election. Holders of outstanding OP units may redeem their units for cash or the Company’s common shares on a one-for-one basis, solely at our election. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, 70,000, 250,000 and 100,000 units, respectively, were redeemed for an equivalent amount of common shares of the Company. Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Subsidiaries The Company’s noncontrolling interests relate to the 5% interest held by others in our property in Walnut Creek, CA (Mount Diablo) and 17.5% held by others in our property in Massapequa, NY. The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is presented separately in our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

| EARNINGS PER SHARE AND UNIT | EARNINGS PER SHARE AND UNIT Urban Edge Earnings per Share We have calculated earnings per share (“EPS”) under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation methodology whereby EPS for each class of Urban Edge common shares and participating securities is calculated according to dividends declared and participating rights in undistributed earnings. Restricted shares issued pursuant to our share-based compensation program are considered participating securities, and as such, have non-forfeitable rights to receive dividends. Diluted EPS was computed using the treasury stock method for LTIP and OP units. This calculation reflects potential dilution of securities by adding potential common shares, including stock options and unvested restricted shares, to the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, there were options outstanding for 2,930,762, 3,930,762, and 3,930,762 shares, respectively, that potentially could be exercised for common shares. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, no options were included in the diluted EPS calculation as their exercise prices were higher than the average market prices of our common shares. In addition, as of December 31, 2023 there were 92,602 unvested restricted shares outstanding that potentially could become unrestricted common shares. The computation of diluted EPS for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 included 90,804, 59,459, and 54,988 weighted average unvested restricted shares outstanding, respectively, as their effect is dilutive. The effect of the redemption of OP and vested LTIP units is not reflected in the computation of basic earnings per share, as they are redeemable for common shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The assumed redemption of OP and vested LTIP units is included in the determination of diluted earnings per share when they have a dilutive effect on the calculation. The following table sets forth the computation of our basic and diluted earnings per share:

| SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION | SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION Omnibus Share Plan On January 7, 2015, our board and initial shareholders approved the Urban Edge Properties Omnibus Share Plan (the “Omnibus Share Plan”), under which awards may be granted up to a maximum of 15,000,000 of our common shares or share equivalents. Pursuant to the Omnibus Share Plan, stock options, LTIP units, operating partnership units and restricted shares were granted. 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan On February 10, 2021, the Company established the 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2021 LTI Plan”) under the Omnibus Share Plan. The plan is a multi-year, equity compensation program under which participants, including our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, have the opportunity to earn awards in the form of LTIP units that vest based on the passage of time (one-half of the program) and performance goals tied to our relative and absolute TSR during the three-year Performance Period following their grant (one-half of the program). The total grant date fair value under the 2021 LTI Plan was $7.8 million, comprising both performance-based and time-based awards. Performance-based awards For the performance-based awards under the 2021 LTI Plan, participants have the opportunity to earn awards in the form of LTIP units if Urban Edge’s absolute and/or relative TSR meets certain criteria over the three-year Performance Period beginning on February 10, 2021 and ending on February 9, 2024. The Company granted performance-based awards under the 2021 LTI Plan that represent 398,977 LTIP units. The fair value of the performance-based award portion of the 2021 LTI Plan on the date of grant was $3.9 million using a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the fair value through a risk-neutral premise. Assumptions include historical volatility (49.9%), risk-free interest rates (0.2%), and historical daily return as compared to certain peer companies. Under the Absolute TSR component, 40% of the LTIP units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period is equal to 18%, 100% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period is equal to 27%, and 165% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period is equal to or greater than 36%. The Relative TSR component is based on the Company’s performance compared to a peer group comprised of 13 companies. Under the Relative TSR Component, 40% of the LTIP units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period is equal to the 35th percentile of the peer group, 100% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period is equal to the 55th percentile, and 165% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the Performance Period is equal to or above the 75th percentile, with earning determined using linear interpolation if in between such relative and absolute TSR thresholds. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively, we recognized $0.7 million, $0.9 million and $1.0 million of compensation expense related to the performance-based awards under the 2021 LTI Plan. Time-based awards The time-based awards granted under the 2021 LTI Plan, also granted in the form of LTIP units, vest ratably over three years except in the case of our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, where the vesting is ratably over four years. As of December 31, 2023, the Company granted time-based awards under the 2021 LTI Plan that represent 273,615 LTIP units with a grant date fair value of $3.9 million. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively, we recognized $0.8 million, $1.3 million and $1.0 million of compensation expense related to the time-based awards under the 2021 LTI Plan. 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan On February 11, 2022, the Company established the 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2022 LTI Plan”) under the Omnibus Share Plan. The plan is a multi-year, equity compensation program under which participants, including our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, receive awards in the form of LTIP units that, with respect to one half of the program, vest based solely on the passage of time, and with respect to the other half of the program, are earned and vest if certain relative and absolute TSR and/or FFO growth targets are achieved by the Company over a -year performance period. The total grant date fair value under the 2022 LTI Plan was $8.6 million, comprising both performance-based and time-based awards as described further below: Performance-based awards For the performance-based awards under the 2022 LTI Plan, participants have the opportunity to earn awards in the form of LTIP units if Urban Edge’s absolute and/or relative TSR meets certain criteria over the -year performance measurement period (the “TSR Performance Period”) beginning on February 11, 2022 and ending on February 10, 2025. Participants also have the opportunity to earn awards in the form of LTIP units if Urban Edge’s FFO growth component meets certain criteria over the -year performance measurement period (the “FFO Performance Period”) beginning January 1, 2022 and ending on December 31, 2024. The Company granted performance-based awards under the 2022 LTI Plan representing 349,438 units. The fair value of the performance-based award portion of the 2022 LTI Plan on the grant date was $4.3 million using a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the fair value of the Absolute and Relative components through a risk-neutral premise. Assumptions include historical volatility (51.0%), risk-free interest rates (1.7%), and historical daily return as compared to certain peer companies. Under the absolute TSR component, 50% of the LTIP units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to 18%, 100% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to 27%, and 200% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to or greater than 36%. The relative TSR component is based on the Company’s performance compared to a peer group comprised of 13 companies. Under the relative TSR Component, 50% of the LTIP units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to the 35th percentile of the peer group, 100% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to the 55th percentile, and 200% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to or above the 75th percentile. Under the FFO growth component, 50% of the LTIP units will be earned if the Company’s FFO growth over the FFO Performance Period is equal to 3%, 100% will be earned if the Company’s FFO growth over the FFO Performance Period is equal to 5%, and 200% will be earned if the Company’s FFO growth over the FFO Performance Period is equal to or greater than 7%. If the Company’s performance-based awards are between such thresholds, earnings will be determined using linear interpolation. During the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $0.8 million and $0.7 million of compensation expense related to the performance-based awards under the 2022 LTI Plan. Time-based awards The time-based awards granted under the 2022 LTI Plan, also granted in the form of LTIP units, vest ratably over three years except in the case of our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, where the vesting is ratable over four years. As of December 31, 2023, the Company granted time-based awards under the 2022 LTI Plan that represent 266,766 LTIP units with a grant date fair value of $4.3 million. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we recognized $0.9 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of compensation expense related to the time-based awards under the 2022 LTI Plan. 2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan On February 10, 2023, the Company established the 2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2023 LTI Plan”) under the Omnibus Share Plan. The plan is a multi-year, equity compensation program under which participants, including our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, receive awards in the form of LTIP units that, with respect to one half of the program, vest based solely on the passage of time. With respect to the other half of the program, the awards are earned and vest if certain relative and absolute TSR and/or FFO and same-property net operating income (“SP NOI”) growth targets are achieved by the Company over a -year performance period. The total grant date fair value under the 2023 LTI Plan was $7.4 million, comprising both performance-based and time-based awards as described further below: Performance-based awards For the performance-based awards under the 2023 LTI plan, participants have the opportunity to earn awards in the form of LTIP units if Urban Edge’s absolute and/or relative TSR meets certain criteria over the -year performance measurement period beginning on February 10, 2023 and ending on February 9, 2026. Participants also have the opportunity to earn awards in the form of LTIP units if Urban Edge’s FFO growth component and SP NOI growth component meets certain criteria over the -year performance measurement period beginning January 1, 2023 and ending on December 31, 2025. The Company granted performance-based awards under the 2023 LTI Plan representing 309,611 units. The fair value of the performance-based award portion of the 2023 LTI Plan on the grant date was $3.7 million using a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the fair value of the Absolute and Relative components through a risk-neutral premise. Assumptions include historical volatility (53.3%), risk-free interest rates (4.2%), and historical daily return as compared to certain peer companies. Under the absolute TSR component, 50% of the LTIP units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to 12%, 100% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to 21%, and 200% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to or greater than 30%. The relative TSR component is based on the Company’s performance compared to a peer group comprised of 11 companies. Under the relative TSR Component, 50% of the LTIP units will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to the 35th percentile of the peer group, 100% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to the 55th percentile, and 200% will be earned if the Company’s TSR over the TSR Performance Period is equal to or above the 75th percentile. Under the FFO growth component, 50% of the LTIP units will be earned if the Company’s FFO growth over the FFO Performance Period is equal to 1%, 100% will be earned if the Company’s FFO growth over the FFO Performance Period is equal to 3.5%, and 200% will be earned if the Company’s FFO growth over the FFO Performance Period is equal to or greater than 6%. Under the SP NOI Performance component, 50% of the LTIP units will be earned if the Company’s SP NOI Performance component is equal to the 35th percentile of the peer group, 100% will be earned if the Company’s SP NOI growth over the SP NOI Performance Period is equal to the 55th percentile, and 200% will be earned if the Company’s SP NOI growth over the SP NOI Performance Period is equal to or above the 75th percentile. If the Company’s performance-based awards are between such thresholds, earnings will be determined using linear interpolation. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized $0.9 million of compensation expense related to the performance-based awards under the 2023 LTI Plan. Time-based awards The time-based awards granted under the 2023 LTI Plan, also granted in the form of LTIP units, vest ratably over three years except in the case of our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, where the vesting is ratable over four years. As of December 31, 2023, the Company granted time-based awards under the 2023 LTI Plan that represent 257,561 LTIP units with a grant date fair value of $3.7 million. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized $1.1 million of compensation expense related to the time-based awards under the 2023 LTI Plan. 2024 Long-Term Incentive Plan On February 9, 2024, the Company established the 2024 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2024 LTI Plan”) under the Omnibus Share Plan. The plan is a multi-year, equity compensation program under which participants, including our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, receive awards in the form of LTIP units that, with respect to one half of the program, vest based solely on the passage of time, and with respect to the other half of the program, are earned and vest if certain relative and absolute TSR and/or FFO and SP NOI growth targets are achieved by the Company over a three year performance period (one-half of the program). As part of the 2024 LTI Plan, participants other than our named executive officers may receive restricted stock awards subject to a three-year vesting period. The total grant date fair value under the 2024 LTI Plan was $8.5 million, comprising both performance-based and time-based awards. Other Long Term Incentive Plans The Company has several long-term incentive plans that were previously established under the Omnibus Share Plan but remain active for the years presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the 2017 Outperformance Plan (“2017 OPP”), 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2018 LTI Plan”), 2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2019 LTI Plan”), and 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2020 LTI Plan”). The plans are multi-year, equity compensation programs under which participants, including our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, have the opportunity to earn awards in the form of LTIP units that vest based on the passage of time and performance goals tied to our relative and absolute TSR during the performance period following their grant date. The aggregate fair values of these plans on the date of their grants was $30.7 million. In the years ending December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 we recognized $0.8 million, $2.6 million and $4.1 million, respectively, of compensation expense related to the 2017 OPP, 2018 LTI Plan, 2019 LTI Plan, and 2020 LTI Plan. As of December 31, 2023, there was less than $0.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to the 2019 LTI Plan. 2023 Equity Matching Award The Compensation Committee approved a one-time equity matching award (“Matching Award”) pursuant to which officers of the Company may elect to forgo all or a portion (in 25% increments) of their 2023 cash bonuses, and instead, receive LTIP units with a grant date fair value equal to the cash forgone, that are matched on a one-for-one basis by the Company and all of which vest ratably over four years. The program is designed to enhance retention and increase employee ownership in the Company to further align with shareholder interests. On February 9, 2024, the Compensation Committee approved the grant of $12.6 million under the Matching Award, which reflects both the cash bonus forgone and the portion matched by the Company. Units, Deferred Share Units, and Restricted Share Units Granted to Trustees All trustees are granted annual awards in the form of LTIP units, Deferred Share Units (“DSU”), or Restricted Share Units (“RSU”). The following table presents trustee awards granted over the last three years:
Shares Under Option All stock options granted have -year contractual lives, containing vesting terms of to five years. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had 2,930,762 and 3,930,762, respectively, of shares under options with a weighted average exercise price per share of $23.69 and $23.19, respectively. No options were granted or exercised during the year ended December 31, 2023. 1,000,000 options were forfeited during the year ended December 31, 2023 with a weighted average exercise price per share of $21.72.

(1) LTIP expense includes the time-based portion of the 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, and 2019 LTI Plans. (2) Performance-based LTI expense includes the 2017 OPP plan and the performance-based portion of the 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019 and 2018 LTI Plans. As of December 31, 2023, we had a total of $10.4 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested and restricted share-based payment arrangements including LTIP units, deferred share units, and restricted share awards which were granted under our Omnibus Share Plan. This expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of two years.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) |
12 Months Ended |
|---|---|
Dec. 31, 2023 | |
| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Basis of Accounting | The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for annual financial information and with the instructions of Form 10-K |
| Consolidation and Noncontrolling Interests | The consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 reflect the consolidation of the Company, the Operating Partnership, wholly-owned subsidiaries and those entities in which we have a controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most critical accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates and assumptions as to future uncertainties and, therefore, may result in actual amounts that differ from estimates include acquisitions of real estate |
| Real Estate | Real Estate — Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as they are incurred. Significant renovations that improve or extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized. As real estate is undergoing redevelopment activities, all property operating expenses directly associated with and attributable to the redevelopment, including interest, are capitalized to the extent the capitalized costs of the property do not exceed the estimated fair value of the property when completed. If the cost of the redeveloped property, including the net book value of the existing property, exceeds the estimated fair value of redeveloped property, the excess is charged to impairment expense. The capitalization period begins when redevelopment activities are under way and ends when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives which range from to 40 years. Upon the acquisition of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, identified intangibles, such as acquired above and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and assumption of liabilities and we allocate the purchase price based on these assessments on a relative fair value basis. We assess fair value based on estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions. We record acquired intangible assets (including acquired above-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and acquired intangible liabilities (including below-market leases) at their estimated fair value. We amortize identified intangibles that have finite lives over the period they are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the property or business acquired. Our properties and development projects are individually evaluated for impairment quarterly, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such events and changes include macroeconomic conditions, operating performance, and environmental and regulatory changes, which may result in property operational disruption and could indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis taking into account the appropriate capitalization rate in determining a future terminal value. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the property’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value. Estimated fair value may be based on discounted future cash flows utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates and, in addition to available market information, third-party appraisals, broker selling estimates or sale agreements under negotiation. Impairment analyses are based on our current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the analyses are prepared. If our estimates of the projected future cash flows change based on uncertain market conditions, our evaluation of impairment losses may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements.
|
| Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash | Cash and Cash Equivalents — Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities. The majority of our cash and cash equivalents consist of (i) deposits at major commercial banks, including money market accounts, which may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit, (ii) United States Treasury Bills, and (iii) Certificate of Deposits placed through an Account Registry Service (“CDARS”). To date we have not experienced any losses on our invested cash. Restricted Cash — Restricted cash consists of security deposits and cash escrowed under loan agreements for debt service, real estate taxes, property insurance, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, capital expenditures and cash held for potential Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 tax deferred exchange transactions.
|
| Accounts Receivables and Changes in Collectbility Assessment | Tenant and Other Receivables and Changes in Collectibility Assessment — Tenant receivables include unpaid amounts billed to tenants, disputed enforceable charges and accrued revenues for future billings to tenants for property expenses. We evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and disputed enforceable charges on both a lease-by-lease and a portfolio-level, which result from the inability of tenants to make required payments under their operating lease agreements. We recognize changes in the collectibility assessment of these operating leases as adjustments to rental revenue in accordance with ASC 842 Leases. Management exercises judgment in assessing collectibility and considers payment history, current credit status and publicly available information about the financial condition of the tenant, among other factors. Tenant receivables, and receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents, are written-off directly when management deems the collectibility of substantially all future lease payments from a specific lease is not probable, at which point, the Company will begin recognizing revenue from such leases prospectively, based on actual amounts received. This write-off effectively reduces cumulative non-cash rental income recognized from the straight-lining of rents since lease commencement. If the Company subsequently determines that it is probable it will collect substantially all of the lessee’s remaining lease payments under the lease term, the Company will reinstate the receivables balance, including those arising from the straight-lining of rents.
|
| Deferred Leasing Costs | Deferred Leasing Costs — Deferred leasing costs include incremental costs of a lease that would have not been incurred if the lease had not been executed, including broker and sale commissions, and contingent legal fees. Such costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases as depreciation and amortization expense on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Deferred leasing costs also includes lease incentives that can be used at the discretion of the tenant. Lease incentives are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related leases as a reduction to rental revenue on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.
|
| Deferred Financing Costs | Deferred Financing Costs — Deferred financing costs and debt issuance costs include fees associated with the issuance of our mortgage loans and our revolving credit agreement. Such fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related agreements as a component of interest expense, which approximates the effective interest rate method, in accordance with the terms of the agreement.
|
| Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition — We have the following revenue sources and revenue recognition policies: •Rental revenue: Rental revenue comprises revenue from fixed and variable lease payments, as designated within tenant operating leases in accordance with ASC 842 Leases, as described further in our Leases accounting policy in Note 3 to the audited consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. •Rental revenue deemed uncollectible: We evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and disputed enforceable charges on both a lease-by-lease and a portfolio-level, which result from the inability of tenants to make required payments under their operating lease agreements. We recognize changes in the collectibility assessment of these operating leases as adjustments to rental revenue in accordance with ASC 842. •Other income: Other income is generated in connection with certain services provided to tenants for which we earn a fee as well as management and development fee income from contractual property management agreements with third parties, and certain miscellaneous income that pertains to our operations. This revenue is recognized as the services are transferred in accordance with ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
|
| Leases, lessor | Leases — We have approximately 1,000 operating leases at our properties, which generate rental income from tenants and operating cash flows for the Company. Our tenant leases are dependent on the Company, as lessor, agreeing to provide our tenants with the right to control the use of our real estate assets, as lessees. Our real estate assets are comprised of retail shopping centers, malls and an industrial building. Tenants agree to use and control their agreed upon space for their business purposes. Thus, our tenants obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of our shopping center space and have the right to direct how and for what purpose the real estate space is used throughout the period of use. Given these contractual terms, the Company has determined that all tenant contracts of this nature contain a lease. The Company assesses lease classification for each new and modified lease. All new and modified leases which commenced in the year ended December 31, 2023 have been assessed and classified as operating leases. Contractual rent increases of renewal options are often fixed at the time of the initial lease agreement which may result in tenants being able to exercise their renewal options at amounts that are less than the fair value of the rent at the date of renewal. In addition to fixed base rents, certain rental income derived from our tenant leases is variable and may be dependent on percentage rent or the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). Variable lease payments from percentage rents are earned by the Company in the event the tenant's gross sales exceed certain amounts. Terms of percentage rent are agreed upon in the tenant's lease and will vary based on the tenant's sales. Variable lease payments dependent on the CPI, will change in accordance with the corresponding increase or decrease in CPI if negotiated and agreed upon in the tenant's lease. Variable lease payments dependent on percentage rent and the CPI were $5.5 million and $9.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Variable lease payments also arise from tenant expense reimbursements, which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses, common area maintenance expenses, real estate taxes, insurance and capital improvements of the respective property and amounted to $103.7 million and $103.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company accounts for variable lease payments as rental revenue on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income in the period in which the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occur. The Company also has twenty properties in its portfolio either completely or partially on land or in a building that are owned by third parties. These properties are leased or subleased to us pursuant to ground leases, building leases or easements, with remaining terms ranging from to 76 years and provide us the right to operate each such property. We also lease or sublease real estate for our two corporate offices with remaining terms of less than one year. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are recorded for these leases, which represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from these leases. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. The initial measurement of a ROU asset may differ from the initial measurement of the lease liability due to initial direct costs, prepaid lease payments and lease incentives. As of December 31, 2023, no other contracts have been identified as leases. Our leases often offer renewal options, which we assess against relevant economic factors to determine whether the Company is reasonably certain of exercising or not exercising the option. Lease payments associated with renewal periods, for which the Company has determined are reasonably certain of being exercised, are included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset. For finance leases and operating leases, the discount rate applied to measure each ROU asset and lease liability is based on the incremental borrowing rate of the lease due to the rate implicit in the lease not being readily determinable. The Company initially considers the general economic environment and factors in various financing and asset specific secured borrowings so that the overall incremental borrowing rate is appropriate to the intended use of the lease. Certain expenses derived from these leases are variable and are not included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset, but are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. These variable lease payments consist of payments for real estate taxes and common area maintenance, which is dependent on projects and activities at each individual property under ground or building lease.

| Leases, lessee | Leases — We have approximately 1,000 operating leases at our properties, which generate rental income from tenants and operating cash flows for the Company. Our tenant leases are dependent on the Company, as lessor, agreeing to provide our tenants with the right to control the use of our real estate assets, as lessees. Our real estate assets are comprised of retail shopping centers, malls and an industrial building. Tenants agree to use and control their agreed upon space for their business purposes. Thus, our tenants obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of our shopping center space and have the right to direct how and for what purpose the real estate space is used throughout the period of use. Given these contractual terms, the Company has determined that all tenant contracts of this nature contain a lease. The Company assesses lease classification for each new and modified lease. All new and modified leases which commenced in the year ended December 31, 2023 have been assessed and classified as operating leases. Contractual rent increases of renewal options are often fixed at the time of the initial lease agreement which may result in tenants being able to exercise their renewal options at amounts that are less than the fair value of the rent at the date of renewal. In addition to fixed base rents, certain rental income derived from our tenant leases is variable and may be dependent on percentage rent or the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). Variable lease payments from percentage rents are earned by the Company in the event the tenant's gross sales exceed certain amounts. Terms of percentage rent are agreed upon in the tenant's lease and will vary based on the tenant's sales. Variable lease payments dependent on the CPI, will change in accordance with the corresponding increase or decrease in CPI if negotiated and agreed upon in the tenant's lease. Variable lease payments dependent on percentage rent and the CPI were $5.5 million and $9.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Variable lease payments also arise from tenant expense reimbursements, which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses, common area maintenance expenses, real estate taxes, insurance and capital improvements of the respective property and amounted to $103.7 million and $103.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company accounts for variable lease payments as rental revenue on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income in the period in which the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occur. The Company also has twenty properties in its portfolio either completely or partially on land or in a building that are owned by third parties. These properties are leased or subleased to us pursuant to ground leases, building leases or easements, with remaining terms ranging from to 76 years and provide us the right to operate each such property. We also lease or sublease real estate for our two corporate offices with remaining terms of less than one year. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are recorded for these leases, which represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from these leases. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. The initial measurement of a ROU asset may differ from the initial measurement of the lease liability due to initial direct costs, prepaid lease payments and lease incentives. As of December 31, 2023, no other contracts have been identified as leases. Our leases often offer renewal options, which we assess against relevant economic factors to determine whether the Company is reasonably certain of exercising or not exercising the option. Lease payments associated with renewal periods, for which the Company has determined are reasonably certain of being exercised, are included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset. For finance leases and operating leases, the discount rate applied to measure each ROU asset and lease liability is based on the incremental borrowing rate of the lease due to the rate implicit in the lease not being readily determinable. The Company initially considers the general economic environment and factors in various financing and asset specific secured borrowings so that the overall incremental borrowing rate is appropriate to the intended use of the lease. Certain expenses derived from these leases are variable and are not included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset, but are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. These variable lease payments consist of payments for real estate taxes and common area maintenance, which is dependent on projects and activities at each individual property under ground or building lease.

| Noncontrolling Interest | Noncontrolling Interests — Noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries represent the portion of equity that we do not own in those entities that we consolidate. We identify our noncontrolling interests separately within the equity section on the consolidated balance sheets. Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership include OP units and limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership in the form of LTIP unit awards classified as equity. |
| Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities — Certain entities that do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, or for which the equity owners as a group lack any one of the following characteristics: (i) the power, through voting rights or similar rights, to direct the activities of a legal entity that most significantly impacts the entity’s economic performance, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the legal entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the legal entity, qualify as VIEs. VIEs are required to be consolidated by their primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact economic performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The consolidated financial statements reflect the consolidation of VIEs in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Management uses its judgment when determining if we are the primary beneficiary of, or have a controlling financial interest in, an entity in which we have a variable interest. Factors considered in determining whether we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance include voting rights, involvement in day-to-day capital and operating decisions and the extent of our involvement in the entity. Excluding the Operating Partnership, the Company had two entities that met the criteria of a VIE in which we held variable interests as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. These entities are VIEs primarily because the noncontrolling interests do not have substantive kick-out or participating rights and we control the significant operating decisions and consequently have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of these entities. As we also have the obligation to absorb the majority of the losses and/or the right to receive a majority of the benefits for these entities, they were consolidated in our financial statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. The majority of the operations of these VIEs are funded with cash flows generated by the properties and periodic cash contributions.

| Earnings Per Share and Unit | Earnings Per Share and Unit — Basic earnings per common share and unit is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders and unitholders by the weighted average common shares and units outstanding during the period. Unvested share-based payment awards that entitle holders to receive non-forfeitable dividends, such as our restricted stock awards, are classified as “participating securities.” Because the awards are considered participating securities, the Company and the Operating Partnership are required to apply the two-class method of computing basic and diluted earnings that would otherwise have been available to common shareholders and unitholders. Under the two-class method, earnings for the period are allocated between common shareholders and unitholders and other shareholders and unitholders, based on their respective rights to receive dividends. During periods of net loss, losses are allocated only to the extent the participating securities are required to absorb their share of such losses. Diluted earnings per common share and unit reflects the potential dilution of the assumed exercises of shares including stock options and unvested restricted shares to the extent they are dilutive. |
| Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation — We grant stock options, LTIP units, OP units, deferred share units, restricted share awards and performance-based units to our officers, trustees and employees. The term of each award is determined by the compensation committee of our Board of Trustees (the “Compensation Committee”), but in no event can such term be longer than ten years from the date of grant. The vesting schedule of each award is determined by the Compensation Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, at the date of grant of the award. Dividends are paid on certain shares of unvested restricted stock, which makes the restricted stock a participating security. Fair value is determined, depending on the type of award, using either the Black-Scholes option-pricing model or the Monte Carlo method, both of which are intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date. In using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, expected volatilities and dividend yields are primarily based on available implied data and peer group companies’ historical data. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Compensation expense for restricted share awards is based on the fair value of our common shares at the date of the grant and is recognized ratably over the vesting period. For grants with a graded vesting schedule or a cliff vesting schedule, we have elected to recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis. Share-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. When the Company issues common shares as compensation, it receives a like number of common units from the Operating Partnership. Accordingly, the Company’s ownership in the Operating Partnership will increase based on the number of common shares awarded under our 2015 Omnibus Share Plan. As a result of the issuance of common units to the Company for share-based compensation, the Operating Partnership accounts for share-based compensation in the same manner as the Company.

| Income Taxes | Income Taxes — The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Code, commencing with the filing of its 2015 tax return for its tax year ended December 31, 2015. So long as the Company qualifies as a REIT under the Code, the Company will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on net taxable income that it distributes annually to its shareholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent taxable years. The Company is subject to certain foreign and state and local income taxes, in particular income taxes arising from its operating activities in Puerto Rico, which are included in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. In addition, the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) is subject to income tax at regular corporate rates. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not. The Company applies the FASB’s guidance relating to uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a Company’s financial statements. Under this guidance the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, and accounting in interim periods. The Company records interest and penalties relating to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense.

| Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk — A concentration of credit risk arises in our business when a national or regionally-based tenant occupies a substantial amount of space in multiple properties owned by us. In that event, if the tenant suffers a significant downturn in its business, it may become unable to make its contractual rent payments to us, exposing us to potential losses in rental revenue, expense recoveries, and percentage rent. Further, the impact may be magnified if the tenant is renting space in multiple locations. Generally, we do not obtain security from our national or regionally-based tenants in support of their lease obligations to us. We regularly monitor our tenant base to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. |
| Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging | Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging — At times, the Company may use derivative financial instruments to manage and mitigate exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on our variable rate debt. These derivatives are measured at fair value and are recognized as assets or liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, depending on the Company’s rights or obligations under the respective derivative contracts. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative varies based on eligibility and Company elections, including the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate the derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting, and whether the hedge relationship has satisfied certain criteria to be deemed an effective hedge. Effectiveness of the hedging relationship is assessed on a quarterly basis by a third party to determine if the relationship still meets the criteria to be considered an effective hedge. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. In a cash flow hedge, hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the earnings effect of the hedged transaction. A derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge is adjusted to fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The change in fair value, net of the amortization of the purchase price of the instrument, is deemed to be the effective portion of change and is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”) in the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, with the amortization of the purchase price included in interest and debt expense. Cash flows from the derivative are included in the prepaid expenses and other assets, or accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities line item in the statement of cash flows, depending on whether the hedged item is recognized as an asset or a liability. For further information on the Company’s derivative instruments and hedge designations, refer to Note 9.
