Glossary
Defined terms used in this Report:
| Annualized Rent | Annualized cash base rent (excludes tenant reimbursements, parking and other revenue) before abatements under leases commenced as of the reporting date and expiring after the reporting date. Annualized Rent for our triple net office properties (in Honolulu) is calculated by adding expense reimbursements and estimates of normal building expenses paid by tenants to base rent. Annualized Rent does not include lost rent recovered from insurance and rent for building management use. Annualized Rent includes rent for our corporate headquarters in Santa Monica. We report Annualized Rent because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is used by some investors as a means to determine tenant demand and to compare our performance and value with other REITs. We use Annualized Rent to manage and monitor the performance of our office and multifamily portfolios. | ||||
| Consolidated Portfolio | Includes all of the properties included in our consolidated results, including our consolidated JVs. | ||||
| Development Portfolio | Represents the following properties undergoing development activities: (i) a residential property with 712 apartments and approximately 34,000 square feet of retail space in Los Angeles which we are removing from the residential rental market following a fire in January 2020, (ii) a 456,000 square foot single tenant office property in Los Angeles that we commenced converting to multi-tenant after the tenant's lease expired in 2024 and (iii) a 247,000 square foot office property in Westwood with an adjoining residential development site that we acquired in January 2025 and which we are planning to develop 320 apartments. | ||||
| Funds From Operations (FFO) | We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by NAREIT by excluding gains (or losses) on sales of investments in real estate, gains (or losses) from changes in control of investments in real estate, real estate depreciation and amortization (other than amortization of right-of-use assets for which we are the lessee and amortization of deferred loan costs), impairment write-downs of real estate and impairment write-downs of our investment in our unconsolidated Fund from our net income (loss) (including adjusting for the effect of such items attributable to our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Fund, but not for noncontrolling interests included in our Operating Partnership). FFO is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that we report because we believe it is useful to our investors. See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 2 of this Report for a discussion of FFO. | ||||
| In-Service Portfolio | Represents our Total Portfolio excluding properties in our Development Portfolio. | ||||
| Leased Rate | Commencing in the fourth quarter of 2024, the Leased Rate reflects the percentage leased for our In-Service Portfolio as of the reporting date. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2024 the Leased Rate reflected the percentage leased for our Total Portfolio as of the reporting date. Management space is considered leased. Space taken out of service during a repositioning or which is vacant as a result of a fire or other damage is excluded from both the numerator and denominator for calculating the Leased Rate. For newly developed buildings going through lease up, units are included in both the numerator and denominator as they are leased. We report Leased Rate because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is also used by some investors as a means to determine tenant demand and to compare our performance with other REITs. We use Leased Rate to manage and monitor the performance of our office and multifamily portfolios. | ||||
| Net Operating Income (NOI) | We calculate NOI as revenue less operating expenses attributable to the properties that we own and operate. NOI is calculated by excluding the following from our net income (loss): general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization expense, other income, other expenses, income (loss) from unconsolidated Fund, interest expense, gains (or losses) on sales of investments in real estate, gain from consolidation of a JV, and net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. NOI is a non-GAAP supplemental financial measure that we report because we believe it is useful to our investors. See Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 2 of this Report for a discussion of our Same Property NOI. | ||||
| Occupancy Rate | We calculate Occupancy Rate by excluding signed leases not yet commenced from the Leased Rate. We report Occupancy Rate because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is also used by some investors as a means to determine tenant demand and to compare our performance with other REITs. We use Occupancy Rate to manage and monitor the performance of our office and multifamily portfolios. | ||||

Glossary
Defined terms used in this Report (continued): | |||||
| Recurring Capital Expenditures | Building improvements required to maintain revenues once a property has been stabilized, and excludes capital expenditures for (i) acquired buildings being stabilized, (ii) newly developed space, (iii) upgrades to improve revenues or operating expenses or significantly change the use of the space, (iv) casualty damage and (v) bringing the property into compliance with governmental or lender requirements. We report Recurring Capital Expenditures because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is used by some investors as a means to determine our cash flow requirements and to compare our performance with other REITs. We use Recurring Capital Expenditures to manage and monitor the performance of our office and multifamily portfolios. | ||||
| Rentable Square Feet | Based on the BOMA remeasurement and consists of leased square feet (including square feet with respect to signed leases not commenced as of the reporting date), available square feet, building management use square feet and square feet of the BOMA adjustment on leased space. We report Rentable Square Feet because it is a widely reported measure of the performance and value of equity REITs, and is also used by some investors to compare our performance and value with other REITs. We use Rentable Square Feet to manage and monitor the performance of our office portfolio. | ||||
| Rental Rate | We present two forms of Rental Rates - Cash Rental Rates and Straight-Line Rental Rates. Cash Rental Rate is calculated by dividing the rent paid on the measurement date by the Rentable Square Feet. Straight-Line Rental Rate is calculated by dividing the average rent over the lease term by the Rentable Square Feet. | ||||
| Same Properties | Our consolidated properties that have been owned and operated by us in a consistent manner, and reported in our consolidated results during the entire span of both periods being compared. We exclude from our same property subset any properties that during the comparable periods were: (i) acquired, (ii) sold, held for sale, contributed or otherwise removed from our consolidated financial statements, (iii) that underwent a major repositioning project or were impacted by development activity, or suffered significant casualty loss that we believed significantly affected the properties' operating results. We also exclude rent received from ground leases. | ||||
| Short-Term Leases | Represents leases that expired on or before the reporting date or had a term of less than one year, including hold over tenancies, month to month leases and other short-term occupancies. | ||||
| Total Portfolio | Includes our consolidated properties, which includes the properties of our consolidated joint ventures. | ||||

1. Overview
Organization and Business Description
Douglas Emmett, Inc. is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. We are one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii. Through our interest in our Operating Partnership, its subsidiaries, and our consolidated JVs, we focus on owning, acquiring, developing and managing a substantial market share of top-tier office properties and premier multifamily communities in neighborhoods that possess significant supply constraints, high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities. The terms "us," "we" and "our" as used in the consolidated financial statements refer to Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
At June 30, 2025, our Total Portfolio consisted of (i) a 18.0 million square foot office portfolio, (ii) 5,442 multifamily apartment units and (iii) fee interests in two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases. As of June 30, 2025, our portfolio consisted of the following (including ancillary retail space and excluding two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases):
| Total Portfolio | |||||
| Office | |||||
| Wholly-owned properties | |||||

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are the consolidated financial statements of Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership and our consolidated JVs. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in our consolidated financial statements.
We consolidate entities in which we are considered to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE or have a majority of the voting interest of the entity. We are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have (i) the power to direct the activities of that VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We do not consolidate entities in which the other parties have substantive kick-out rights to remove our power to direct the activities, most significantly impacting the economic performance, of that VIE. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary, we consider factors such as ownership interest, management representation, authority to control decisions, and contractual and substantive participating rights of each party.
We consolidate our Operating Partnership through which we conduct substantially all of our business, and own, directly and through subsidiaries, substantially all of our assets, and are obligated to repay substantially all of our liabilities. The consolidated debt, excluding our consolidated JVs, was $3.75 billion and $3.73 billion as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. See Note 8. We also consolidate six JVs through our Operating Partnership. We consolidate our Operating Partnership and our six JVs because they are VIEs and we or our Operating Partnership are the primary beneficiary for each. On January 1, 2025, we commenced consolidating one of our JVs which was previously unconsolidated and accounted for using the equity method. The JV owns two Class A office properties totaling 0.4 million square feet.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC in conformity with US GAAP as established by the FASB in the ASC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with US GAAP may have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make their presentation not misleading. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include, in our opinion, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information set forth therein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the notes thereto. Any references to the number or class of properties, square footage, per square footage amounts, apartment units and geography, are outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm’s review of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
We have not made any changes to our significant accounting policies disclosed in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
Rental revenues and tenant recoveries
We account for our rental revenues, and variable lease payments such as tenant recoveries and parking revenues, in accordance with Topic 842. We adopted a practical expedient which allows us to account for our rental revenues, tenant recoveries and certain parking revenues on a combined basis. Rental revenues and tenant recoveries from tenant leases are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries on our consolidated statements of operations. Tenant recoveries were
$12.9 million and $11.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $25.1 million and $20.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Parking revenues are included in Parking and other income on our consolidated statements of operations.
Collectibility
In accordance with Topic 842, we perform an assessment as to whether or not substantially all of the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement is deemed probable of collection. This assessment involves using a methodology that requires judgment and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimates are made, including tenant specific factors, specific industry conditions, and general economic trends and conditions.

Douglas Emmett, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
For leases where we have concluded it is probable that we will collect substantially all the lease payments due under those leases, we continue to record lease income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases where we have concluded that it is not probable that we will collect substantially all the lease payments due under those leases, we limit the lease income to the lesser of the income recognized on a straight-line basis or cash basis. We write-off tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables as a charge against rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the period we conclude that substantially all of the lease payments are not probable of collection. If we subsequently collect amounts that were previously written off then the amounts collected are recorded as an increase to our rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the period they are collected. If our conclusion of collectibility changes, we will record the difference between the lease income that would have been recognized on a straight-line basis and cash basis as a current-period adjustment to rental revenues and tenant recoveries.
Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code. Provided that we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate-level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our stockholders that we derive from our REIT qualifying activities. We are subject to corporate-level income tax on the earnings that we derive through our TRS.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Changes to US GAAP are implemented by the FASB in the form of ASUs. We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. As of the date of this Report, the FASB has not issued any ASUs that we expect to be applicable and have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Consolidation of Partnership X
Partnership X is a JV through which we and another investor own two Class A office properties totaling 0.4 million square feet in the Los Angeles submarkets of Brentwood and Beverly Hills. On January 1, 2025, we amended the operating agreement of Partnership X resulting in Partnership X becoming a VIE, and we became the primary beneficiary and commenced consolidating Partnership X on January 1, 2025. The results of the Partnership X are included in our operating results from January 1, 2025. Before January 1, 2025, Partnership X was accounted for using the equity method, and our share of Partnership X's net income was included in our statements of operations in Income from unconsolidated Fund.
The consolidation of Partnership X required us to recognize the JV's identifiable assets and liabilities at fair value in our consolidated financial statements, along with the fair value of the non-controlling interest of $20.2 million. We recognized a gain of $47.2 million to adjust the carrying value of our existing investment in the JV to its estimated fair value upon consolidation. The gain was determined by taking the difference between: (a) the fair value of Partnership X’s assets less its liabilities and (b) the sum of the fair value of the noncontrolling interest, the carrying value of our investment in Partnership X, and our share of Partnership X's other comprehensive income.
16
Douglas Emmett, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
We determined the fair value of Partnership X’s assets and liabilities upon initial consolidation using our estimates of expected future cash flows and other valuation techniques. We estimated the fair values of Partnership X’s properties by using the income and sales comparison valuation approaches which included, but are not limited to, our estimates of rental rates, comparable sales, revenue growth rates, capitalization rates and discount rates. Assumed debt was recorded at fair value based upon the present value of the expected future payments and current interest rates. Other acquired assets, including cash and assumed liabilities were recorded at cost due to the short-term nature of the balances. The table below summarizes the adjusted relative purchase price allocation for the initial consolidation of the JV.

Acquisition of 10900 Wilshire
On January 2, 2025, a consolidated JV that we manage, and in which we own a 30 % interest, acquired a 17 -story, 247,000 square foot office building at 10900 Wilshire Boulevard in Westwood. Title to the property was transferred following the purchase of a secured note by the JV in 2024, which was partially financed by a $61.8 million loan. See Note 8 for our debt disclosures. We accounted for the acquisition as an asset acquisition and the acquired property's operating results are included in our consolidated operating results from the date of acquisition. The table below summarizes the relative fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

4. Ground Lease
We pay rent under a ground lease located in Honolulu, Hawaii, which expires on December 31, 2086. The rent is fixed at $733 thousand per year until February 28, 2029, after which it will reset to the greater of the existing ground rent or the market rent at the time.
As of June 30, 2025, the ground lease right-of-use asset carrying value was $7.4 million and the ground lease liability was $10.8 million. Ground rent expense, which is included in Office expenses on our consolidated statements of operations, was:
•$183

6. Investment in Unconsolidated Fund
Partnership X, a JV through which we and another investor own two Class A office properties totaling 0.4 million square feet, was consolidated on January 1, 2025. See Note 3. Before January 1, 2025, Partnership X was accounted for using the equity method. From January 1, 2024 until February 28, 2024 we owned 53.8 % in Partnership X. On February 29, 2024, we purchased an additional 20.2 % equity interest in Partnership X which increased our equity interest to 74.0 %.
Partnership X pays us fees and reimburses us for certain expenses related to property management and other services we provide. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the respective transactions are eliminated in consolidation. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, when we accounted for our investment in Partnership X using the equity method, those amounts are included in Other income on our consolidated statements of operations.
We also receive distributions based on invested capital and on any profits that exceed certain specified cash returns to the investors. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the respective transactions are eliminated in consolidation. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, when we accounted for our investment in Partnership X using the equity method, we received operating and capital distributions of $573 thousand and $147 thousand, respectively.

Except as noted below, our loans: (i) are non-recourse, (ii) are secured by separate collateral pools consisting of one or more properties, (iii) require interest-only monthly payments with the outstanding principal due upon maturity, and (iv) contain certain financial covenants which could require us to deposit excess cash flow with the lender under certain circumstances unless we (at our option) either provide a guarantee or additional collateral or pay down the loan within certain parameters set forth in the loan documents. Certain loans with maturity date extension options require us to meet minimum financial thresholds in order to extend the loan maturity date.
(1)Maturity dates include extension options.
(2)Effective rate as of June 30, 2025. Includes the effect of interest rate swaps (if applicable) and excludes the effect of prepaid loan fees and loan premiums/discounts. See Note 10 for details of our interest rate swaps. See further below for details of our loan costs and loan premiums/discounts.
(3)We closed a $127.2 million loan and used part of the proceeds to pay off a $102.4 million loan during March 2025.
(4)The loan agreement includes a zero -percent SOFR floor. If the loan is swap-fixed then the related swaps do not include such a floor.
21
Douglas Emmett, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
(5)The loan is secured by four residential properties. A portion of the loan totaling $472 million has a lender-required out-of-the-money interest rate cap at a weighted average of 8.99 % until July 2026. For the portion of the loan relating to Barrington Plaza, in connection with the removal of that property from the rental market during 2023, the lender is treating the debt as a construction loan, and we signed a construction completion guarantee in January 2024. See "Guarantees" in Note 16. The lender also required a $13.3 million cash deposit, which we placed into an interest bearing collateral account during 2023. The lender will return the deposit at the earlier of August 2026 or when the loan is paid in full. The deposit is included in Other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. See Note 7.
(6)We modified and extended the loan for seven years , effective March 3, 2025. The loan consists of a $200 million note that bears interest at 4.5 %, of which 2.825 % is accrued, and a $135 million note that accrues interest at 6.0 %. The accrued interest for both notes is due at maturity and is not subject to compounding. See Note 9 regarding the accrued interest on the loan. The weighted average face rate on the principal balance is 5.10 %, and the effective rate as a result of the non-compounding is 4.57 %. The loan includes a revolving credit facility of $12.5 million, which accrues interest at 5.5 %. As of June 30, 2025, the outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility was $1.1 million.
(7)The loan has a lender-required out-of-the-money interest rate cap at an interest rate of 7.84 % until August 2026.
(8)The loan requires monthly payments of principal and interest. The principal amortization is based upon a 30 -year amortization schedule.
(9)In May 2025, the JV made a $70.0 million loan principal payment to extend the loan for up to two years . The related interest rate swaps expired in April 2025, and in May 2025, the JV purchased an interest rate cap which capped the interest rate at 7.45 % until May 2026.
(10)The interest rate swaps related to this loan expired on June 1, 2025.
(11)The loan for a fund that we commenced consolidating on January 1, 2025. See Note 3.
(12)The loan requires monthly payments of principal and interest for twelve months commencing on January 5, 2028 based upon a 25-year principal amortization schedule.
(13)We guaranteed the portion of the loan principal that would need to be paid down in order to meet the minimum debt yield in the loan agreement. See "Guarantees" in Note 16.
(14)The interest rate is fixed at 6 % until July 8, 2027 and then increases to 6.25 % for the remaining term of the loan.
(15)See Note 13 for our debt fair value disclosures.
(16)Balances are net of accumulated amortization/accretion of $1.3 million and $1.4 million at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

10. Derivative Contracts
We make use of interest rate swap and cap contracts to manage the risk associated with changes in interest rates on our floating-rate debt and to satisfy certain lender requirements. When we enter into a floating-rate term loan, we generally enter into an interest rate swap agreement for the equivalent principal amount, for a period covering the majority of the loan term, which effectively converts our floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis during that time. We also enter into interest rate cap agreements from time to time to cap the interest rates on our floating rate loans. We may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to hedge certain economic risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or we elect to not apply hedge accounting. We do not speculate in derivatives and we do not make use of any other derivative instruments. See Note 8 regarding our debt and our consolidated JVs' debt that is hedged.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
Certain of our swaps include credit-risk related contingent features. For example, we have agreements with certain of our interest rate swap counterparties that contain a provision under which we could be declared in default on our derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness that we are hedging is accelerated by the lender due to our default on the indebtedness. As of June 30, 2025, there have been no events of default with respect to our interest rate swaps or our consolidated JVs' interest rate swaps. We do not post collateral for our interest rate swap contract liabilities.

As of June 30, 2025, noncontrolling interests in our Operating Partnership owned 35.5 million OP Units and fully-vested LTIP Units, which represented approximately 17.5 % of our Operating Partnership's total outstanding interests, and we owned 167.4 million OP Units (to match our 167.4 million shares of outstanding common stock), which represented approximately 82.5 % of our Operating Partnership's total outstanding interests.
A share of our common stock, an OP Unit and an LTIP Unit (once vested and booked up) have essentially the same economic characteristics, sharing equally in the distributions from our Operating Partnership. Investors who own OP Units have the right to cause our Operating Partnership to acquire their OP Units for an amount of cash per unit equal to the market value of one share of our common stock at the date of acquisition, or, at our election, exchange their OP Units for shares of our common stock on a one -for-one basis. LTIP Units have been granted to our employees and non-employee directors as part of their compensation. These awards generally vest over a service period and once vested can generally be converted to OP Units provided our stock price increases by more than a specified hurdle.

13. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Our estimates of the fair value of financial instruments were determined using available market information and widely used valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and determine an estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions or valuation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair values. The FASB fair value framework hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity, and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market-based inputs. The hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 - inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - inputs are observable either directly or indirectly for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.
As of June 30, 2025, we did not have any fair value estimates of financial instruments using Level 3 inputs.
Financial instruments disclosed at fair value
Short term financial instruments
The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, interest payable, accounts payable, security deposits and dividends payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
Secured notes payable
See Note 8 for the details of our secured notes payable. We estimate the fair value of our consolidated secured notes payable by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of the principal and interest payments for each secured note payable. The calculation incorporates observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs, assumes that the loans will be outstanding through maturity, and includes any maturity extension options. The table below presents the estimated fair value and carrying value of our secured notes payable, the carrying value includes unamortized loan premium/discount and excludes unamortized deferred loan fees:

Ground lease liability
See Note 4 for the details of our ground lease. We estimate the fair value of our ground lease liability by calculating the present value of the future lease payments disclosed in Note 4 using our incremental borrowing rate. The calculation incorporates observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs. The table below presents the estimated fair value and carrying value of our ground lease liability:

Financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis
Derivative instruments
See Note 10 for the details of our derivatives. We present our derivatives on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value, on a gross basis, excluding accrued interest. We estimate the fair value of our derivative instruments by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of the expected future cash flows of each derivative. The calculation incorporates the contractual terms of the derivatives, observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs, and credit risk adjustments to reflect the counterparty's as well as our own non-performance risk. Our derivatives are not subject to master netting arrangements.

14. Segment Reporting
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our chief operating decision maker (CODM) reviews information to assess performance and make resource allocation decisions. Our CODM is our CEO. We operate in two business segments: (i) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office real estate and (ii) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate. The services for our office segment primarily include rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The services for our multifamily segment include rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. Asset information by segment is not reported because we do not use this measure to assess performance or make decisions to allocate resources. Therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not allocated among segments. General and administrative expenses and interest expense are not included in segment profit as our internal reporting addresses these items on a corporate level.

15. Future Minimum Lease Rental Receipts
We lease space to tenants primarily under non-cancelable operating leases that generally contain provisions for a base rent plus reimbursement of certain operating expenses, and we own fee interests in two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases. The table below presents the future minimum base rentals on our non-cancelable office tenant and ground leases for our consolidated properties at June 30, 2025:

The amounts assume that early termination options held by tenants will not be exercised.
16. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Excluding ordinary, routine litigation incidental to our business, we are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that we believe would reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Barrington Plaza
In May 2023, we used a state law, the Ellis Act, to begin moving tenants out of the buildings in order to complete fire and life safety retrofits. We are appealing a ruling by a trial court in Santa Monica that the Ellis Act wasn’t the proper avenue for removing those tenants. We do not expect the ruling to have a meaningful impact on the anticipated timing, cost, or ultimate plans for the Barrington Plaza property, and continue to coordinate with the City of Los Angeles to comply with its order to sprinkler the Barrington Plaza property and to complete other fire life safety work. We are currently in litigation with the insurance providers in 2020 for Barrington Plaza to recover certain costs associated with reconstruction.
Concentration of Risk
Tenant Receivables
We are subject to credit risk with respect to our tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables related to our tenant leases. Our tenants' ability to honor the terms of their respective leases remains dependent upon economic, regulatory and social factors. We seek to minimize our credit risk from our tenant leases by (i) targeting smaller, more affluent office tenants, from a diverse mix of industries, (ii) performing credit evaluations of prospective tenants and (iii) obtaining security deposits or letters of credit from our tenants. For each of the six month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, no tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues.
32
Douglas Emmett, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
Geographic Risk
All of our properties, including our consolidated JVs' properties, are located in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii, and we are therefore susceptible to adverse economic and regulatory developments, as well as natural disasters, in those markets.
Derivative Counterparty Credit Risk
We are subject to credit risk with respect to our derivative counterparties. We do not post or receive collateral with respect to our derivative transactions. Our derivative contracts do not provide for right of offset between derivative contracts. See Note 10 for the details of our derivative contracts. We seek to minimize our credit risk by entering into agreements with a variety of counterparties with investment grade ratings.
Cash Balances
We have significant cash balances invested in a variety of short-term money market funds that are intended to preserve principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing current income. These investments are not insured against loss of principal and there is no guarantee that our investments in these funds will be redeemable at par value. We also have significant cash balances in bank accounts with high quality financial institutions with investment grade ratings. Interest bearing bank accounts at each U.S. banking institution are insured by the FDIC up to $250 thousand.
Asset Retirement Obligations
Conditional asset retirement obligations represent a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement is conditional on a future event that may or may not be within our control. A liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation must be recorded if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. Environmental site assessments have identified thirty-three buildings in our Total Portfolio which contain asbestos, and would have to be removed in compliance with applicable environmental regulations if these properties are demolished or undergo major renovations. As of June 30, 2025, the obligations to remove the asbestos from properties which are currently undergoing major renovations, or that we plan to renovate in the future, are not material to our consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2025, the obligations to remove the asbestos from our other properties have indeterminable settlement dates, and we are unable to reasonably estimate the fair value of the associated conditional asset retirement obligations.
Contractual Commitments
As of June 30, 2025, we had an aggregate remaining contractual commitment for development projects, repositioning projects, capital expenditure projects and tenant improvements of approximately $319.3 million.
Loan Guarantees
In November 2023, we signed a guarantee for the $175.0 million consolidated JV loan which guarantees the portion of the loan principal that would need to be paid down to meet the minimum debt yield in the loan agreement. The loan matures in April 2029. The guarantee will remain in effect until either the guarantee obligation or the loan is paid in full. As of June 30, 2025, we estimate the risk of loss for this guarantee to be low. See Note 8 for more information regarding our debt.
During 2023, we removed our Barrington Plaza Apartments property in Los Angeles from the rental market. The reconstruction of this property is expected to take a number of years at a cost of several hundred million dollars. The lender is treating the $210.0 million Barrington Plaza loan, which matures in June 2027, as a construction loan, and we signed a construction completion guarantee in January 2024. The guarantee will remain in effect until either the construction is completed or the loan is paid in full. As of June 30, 2025, we estimate the risk of loss for this guarantee to be low. See Note 8 for more information regarding our debt.

17. Subsequent Events
During July 2025, we refinanced a $200.0 million office term loan that was scheduled to mature in September 2026. The new, non-recourse, interest-only term loan has a floating interest rate of SOFR + 2 %, which we swapped to a fixed rate of 5.60 % through 2030. The new loan matures in July 2032.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Forward Looking Statements disclaimer, and our consolidated financial statements and related notes in Part I, Item 1 of this Report. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, our results of operations were impacted by: (i) various transactions - see "Acquisition, Debt and Equity Transactions, Development and Repositioning Projects, and Other Transactions" further below and (ii) the consolidation of Partnership X - see Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements in Part 1, Item 1 of this Report.
Business Description
Douglas Emmett, Inc. is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. Through our interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, and our consolidated JVs, we are one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties in Los Angeles County, California and in Honolulu, Hawaii. We focus on owning, acquiring, developing and managing a substantial market share of top-tier office properties and premier multifamily communities in neighborhoods that possess significant supply constraints, high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities.
For the purpose of reporting key operating metrics, commencing with the fourth quarter of 2024, we are focused on the properties in our In-Service Portfolio. Our In-Service Portfolio consists of our Total Portfolio excluding our Development Portfolio. The Development Portfolio consists of two office properties and one multifamily property whose operations are significantly limited by the development activity and are excluded from our In-Service Portfolio statistics and operating metrics. Our portfolio statistics and operating metrics as of June 30, 2025 were as follows:

Revenues by Segment and Location
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, revenues from our Total Portfolio were derived as follows:
____
35
Acquisition, Debt and Equity Transactions, Development and Repositioning Projects, and Other Transactions
Acquisition, Debt and Equity Transactions
During the first quarter of 2025:
•A consolidated JV that we manage, and in which we own a 30% interest, acquired a 17-story 247,000 square foot office property located at 10900 Wilshire Boulevard in Westwood. Title to the property was transferred following the purchase of a secured note by the respective JV.
•We modified and extended a $335.0 million term loan for seven years, effective March 3, 2025. The loan is secured by an office property. The loan consists of a $200 million note that bears interest at 4.5%, of which 2.825% is accrued, and a $135 million note that accrues interest at 6.0%. The accrued interest for both notes is due at maturity and is not subject to compounding. The weighted average face rate on the principal balance is 5.10%, and the effective rate as a result of the non-compounding is 4.57%.
•During March 2025, we closed a $127.2 million loan and used part of the proceeds to pay off a $102.4 million loan. The interest rate is fixed at 4.99% and the loan matures in April 2030.
During the second quarter of 2025:
•In May 2025, one of our consolidated JVs made a $70.0 million loan principal payment to extend a term loan for up to two years. The related loan's interest rate swaps expired in April 2025, and in May 2025, the JV purchased an interest rate cap which capped the interest rate at 7.45% until May 2026.
•In June 2025, one of our consolidated JVs raised $12.0 million of additional capital. We contributed $6.6 million of cash to the JV and another investor contributed $5.4 million of cash to the JV.
During July, 2025:
•During July 2025, we refinanced a $200.0 million office term loan that was scheduled to mature in September 2026. The new, non-recourse, interest-only term loan has a floating interest rate of SOFR + 2%, which we swapped to a fixed rate of 5.60% through 2030. The new loan matures in July 2032.
See Notes 3, 8, 10, 11 and 17 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for more information regarding our acquisition, debt, derivative contracts and equity, respectively.
Development Portfolio
Studio Plaza
Studio Plaza is a 456,000 square foot office property located in Burbank. Following the move-out of a long-term single tenant, we have begun extensive redevelopment of the property to convert it into a multi-tenant building. The development process is ongoing and we have begun leasing space to be occupied when the common areas and the related floors are completed. Commencing with the fourth quarter of 2024, we classified this property as part of our Development Portfolio and exclude it from our In-Service Portfolio statistics and operating metrics.
Barrington Plaza
During the second quarter of 2023, we removed our Barrington Plaza Apartments property in Los Angeles from the rental market. A reconstruction of this property is expected to take a number of years at a cost of several hundred million dollars. As of June 30, 2025, a significant majority of the tenants have vacated. See "Legal Proceedings" in Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report. Commencing with the fourth quarter of 2024, we classified this property as part of our Development Portfolio and exclude it from our In-Service Portfolio statistics and operating metrics.
10900 Wilshire Boulevard
See "Acquisition, Debt and Equity Transactions" above regarding the acquisition of 10900 Wilshire Boulevard in Westwood. We are planning a 320-unit apartment community. We will convert the existing 247,000 square foot office tower into apartments, and integrate it with a new residential building that we are constructing on the property. The conversion of the office tower will occur in phases over a number of years as the office space in the building is vacated. Commencing with the first quarter of 2025, we classified this property as part of our Development Portfolio and exclude it from our In-Service Portfolio statistics and operating metrics.
36
Repositionings
We often strategically purchase properties with large vacancies or expected near-term lease roll-over and use our knowledge of the property and submarket to reposition the property for the optimal use and tenant mix. In addition, we may reposition properties already in our portfolio. The work we undertake to reposition a building typically takes months or even years, and could involve a range of improvements from a complete structural renovation to a targeted remodeling of selected spaces. During the repositioning, the affected property may display depressed rental revenues and occupancy levels that impact our operating results and, therefore, comparisons of our performance from period to period.
Office Rental Rates
The table below presents the average annual rental rate per leased square foot and the annualized lease transaction costs per leased square foot for leases executed in our total office portfolio during the respective periods. Commencing with the fourth quarter of 2024, the table below presents only our In-Service Portfolio.
| Six Months Ended | Year Ended December 31, | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| June 30, 2025 | 2024 | 2023 | 2022 | 2021 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Average straight-line rental rate(1)(2)(4)(5) | $45.58 | $50.50 | $42.97 | $46.78 | $44.99 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Annualized lease transaction costs(3)(4)(5) | $6.11 | $5.95 | $5.53 | $5.85 | $4.77 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
___________________________________________________
(1)These average rental rates are not directly comparable from year to year because the averages are significantly affected from period to period by factors such as the buildings, submarkets, and types of space and terms involved in the leases executed during the respective reporting period. Because straight-line rent takes into account the full economic value during the full term of each lease, including rent concessions and escalations, we believe that it may provide a better comparison than ending cash rents, which include the impact of the annual escalations over the entire term of the lease.
(2)Reflects the weighted average straight-line Annualized Rent.
(3)Reflects the weighted average leasing commissions and tenant improvement allowances divided by the weighted average number of years for the leases. Excludes leases substantially negotiated by the seller in the case of acquired properties, leases for tenants relocated from space at the landlord's request, and non-comparable leases, such as retail leases.
(4)Our office rental rates were adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic during 2021 and 2022, although the lower rental rates for the respective periods were partly offset by lower tenant improvement costs.
(5)Our office rental rates and lease transaction costs were impacted by a large tenant lease renewal during 2024.

Office Rent Roll
The table below presents the rent roll for new and renewed leases per leased square foot executed in our total office portfolio. The table below presents only our In-Service Portfolio.

| Straight-line Rent | $44.81 | $45.58 | 1.7% | ||||||||||||||||||||
___________________________________________________
(1)Represents the average annual initial stabilized cash and straight-line rents per square foot on new and renewed leases signed during the period compared to the prior leases for the same space. Excludes leases with a term of twelve months or less, leases where the prior lease was terminated more than a year before signing of the new lease, leases for tenants relocated at the landlord's request, leases in acquired buildings where we believe the information about the prior agreement is incomplete or where we believe the base rent reflects other off-market inducements to the tenant, and other non-comparable leases, such as retail leases.
(2)Our office rent roll can fluctuate from period to period as a result of changes in our submarkets, buildings and term of the expiring leases, making these metrics difficult to predict.
Multifamily Rental Rates
The table below presents the average annual rental rate per leased unit for new tenants. Commencing with the fourth quarter of 2024, the table below presents only our In-Service Portfolio.
| Six Months Ended | Year Ended December 31, | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| June 30, 2025 | 2024 | 2023 | 2022 | 2021 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Average annual rental rate - new tenants(1) | $40,708 | $39,580 | $36,070 | $31,763 | $29,837 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
_____________________________________________________________________
(1) These average rental rates are not directly comparable from year to year because of changes in the properties and units included. For example:
(i) During 2022, the average was impacted by the acquisition of 1221 Ocean Avenue, where the rental rates were higher than the average in our portfolio.
(ii) During 2023, the average was impacted by leasing of units at our newly developed West Los Angeles property, where the rental rates were higher than the average in our portfolio. Barrington Plaza was removed from this metric beginning with the third quarter of 2023.
(iii) During 2024, the average was impacted by leasing of units at our newly developed West Los Angeles property, where the rental rates were higher than the average in our portfolio.
Multifamily Rent Roll
The rent on leases subject to rent change during the six months ended June 30, 2025 (new tenants and existing tenants undergoing annual rent review) was 4.5% higher on average than the prior rent on the same unit after adjusting for rent concessions. Commencing with the fourth quarter of 2024, the rent change includes only our In-Service Portfolio.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: FFO
Usefulness to Investors
We report FFO because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is also used by some investors to identify the impact of trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs from year to year, excluding impacts from changes in the value of our real estate, and to compare our performance with other REITs. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure for which we believe that net income (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. FFO has limitations as a measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization of real estate, and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations. FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income (loss) as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a measure of our liquidity or cash flow, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends. Other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to the FFO of other REITs. See "Results of Operations" above for a discussion of the items that impacted our net income.
FFO Reconciliation to GAAP
The table below reconciles our FFO (the FFO attributable to our common stockholders and noncontrolling interests in our Operating Partnership - which includes our share of our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Fund's FFO) to net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders (the most directly comparable GAAP measure). Our FFO was adversely impacted by the effects of inflation and higher interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024.

Comparison of three months ended June 30, 2025 to three months ended June 30, 2024
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, FFO decreased by $17.5 million, or 19.0%, to $74.6 million, compared to $92.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to: (i) lower office occupancy, (ii) higher office expenses, (iii) higher interest expense, and (iv) lower interest income, which was partly offset by higher multifamily rental revenues due to higher occupancy and rental rates.
Comparison of six months ended June 30, 2025 to six months ended June 30, 2024
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, FFO decreased by $26.6 million, or 14.6%, to $155.5 million, compared to $182.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to the same reasons described above.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: Same Property NOI
Usefulness to Investors
We report Same Property NOI to facilitate a comparison of our operations between reported periods. Many investors use Same Property NOI to evaluate our operating performance and to compare our operating performance with other REITs, because it can reduce the impact of investing transactions on operating trends. Same Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure for which we believe that net income (loss) is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. We report Same Property NOI because it is a widely recognized measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is used by some investors to identify trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs and to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs. Same Property NOI has limitations as a measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization expense, and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations. Other REITs may not calculate Same Property NOI in the same manner. As a result, our Same Property NOI may not be comparable to the Same Property NOI of other REITs. Same Property NOI should be considered only as a supplement to net income (loss) as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a measure of our liquidity or cash flow, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Short-term liquidity
Our short-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary for our operating activities, development, repositioning projects, dividends, distributions and discretionary share repurchases. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we generated cash from operations of $213.9 million. As of June 30, 2025, we had $426.9 million of cash and cash equivalents. See Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for more information regarding our debt maturities and interest rate swap expirations. Excluding acquisitions and debt refinancings, we expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through cash on hand and cash generated by operations.
Long-term liquidity
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions, development and debt refinancings. We do not expect to have sufficient funds on hand to cover these long-term cash requirements due to REIT federal tax rules which require that we distribute at least 90% of our income on an annual basis. We plan to meet our long-term liquidity needs through long-term secured non-recourse debt, the issuance of equity securities, including common stock and OP Units, as well as property dispositions and JV transactions.
We generally only use non-recourse debt secured by our properties. As of the date of this report, approximately 44% of our total office portfolio was unencumbered. To mitigate the impact of changing interest rates on our cash flows from operations, we generally enter into interest rate swap agreements with respect to our loans with floating interest rates. These swap agreements generally expire two years before the maturity date of the related loan, during which time we can refinance the loan without any interest penalty. We also enter into interest rate cap agreements from time to time to cap the interest rates on our floating rate loans. See Notes 8 and 10 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for more information regarding our debt and derivative contracts, respectively. See Item 3 "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" of this Report regarding the impact of interest rate increases on our future operating results and cash flows.
Certain Contractual Obligations
See the following notes to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for information regarding our contractual commitments:
•Note 4 - minimum future ground lease payments;
•Note 8 - minimum future principal payments for our secured notes payable, and the interest rates that determine our future periodic interest payments; and
•Note 16 - contractual commitments and guarantees.

Cash Flows
Comparison of six months ended June 30, 2025 to six months ended June 30, 2024
Our operating cash flows were adversely impacted by the effects of inflation and higher interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024.
| Six Months Ended June 30, | Increase (Decrease) In Cash | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2025 | 2024 | % | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (In thousands) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Net cash provided by operating activities(1) | $ | 213,927 | $ | 230,888 | $ | (16,961) | (7.3) | % | |||||||||||||||||||||
Net cash used in investing activities(2) | $ | (105,175) | $ | (110,230) | $ | 5,055 | 4.6 | % | |||||||||||||||||||||

________________________________________________________________________
(1) Our cash flows from operating activities are primarily dependent upon the occupancy and rental rates of our portfolio, the collectibility of tenant receivables, the level of our operating and general and administrative expenses, and interest expense. The decrease in cash from operating activities of $17.0 million was primarily due to: (i) lower office occupancy, (ii) higher office expenses, (iii) higher interest expense, and (iv) lower interest income, which was partly offset by higher multifamily rental revenues due to higher occupancy and rental rates.
(2) Our cash flows from investing activities is generally used to fund property acquisitions, developments and redevelopment projects, and Recurring and non-Recurring Capital Expenditures. The increase in cash from investing activities of $5.1 million was primarily due to $25.6 million of cash and cash equivalents from the consolidation of Partnership X.
(3) Our cash flows from financing activities are generally impacted by our borrowings and capital activities, as well as dividends and distributions paid to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests, respectively. The decrease in cash from financing activities of $43.8 million was primarily due to higher net repayments of borrowings during the current period.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We have not made any changes to our critical accounting policies disclosed in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP, and which requires us to make estimates of certain items, which affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. While we believe that our estimates are based upon reasonable assumptions and judgments at the time that they are made, some of our estimates could prove to be incorrect, and those differences could be material. Some of our estimates are subject to adjustment as we believe appropriate, based on revised estimates, and reconciliation to actual results when available.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Fixed-Rate Borrowings and Hedged Borrowings
As of June 30, 2025, the interest rates for 49% of our consolidated borrowings were fixed or swap-fixed with interest rate swaps, and 21% were capped with interest rate caps. As of June 30, 2025, the maximum amount the interest expense on our capped-rate borrowings could increase by is $29.7 million per year. Higher interest rates would cause an increase in our future interest expense on our capped-rate debt, which would reduce our future net income, cash flows from operations and FFO. Our interest rate swap agreements generally expire two years before the maturity date of the related loan, during which time we can refinance the loan without any interest penalty. After the interest rate swap agreements expire the related debt will be floating rate. Higher interest rates, to the extent they are higher than our swap-fixed rates when our interest rate swaps expire, would cause our future interest expense on our debt to increase, which would reduce our future net income, cash flows from operations and FFO. See Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for more information regarding our debt maturities and our interest rate swap expirations.
Our use of interest rate swaps and caps also exposes us to credit risk from the potential inability of our counterparties to perform under the terms of those agreements. We attempt to minimize this credit risk by contracting with a variety of financial counterparties with investment grade ratings. See Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for more information regarding our interest rate swaps and caps.
Unhedged Floating-Rate Borrowings
As of June 30, 2025, the interest rates for 30% of our consolidated borrowings were floating. As of June 30, 2025, the interest expense for our unhedged floating-rate borrowings would increase by $16.9 million per year for every one hundred basis points increase in the related benchmark interest rate. Higher interest rates would cause an increase in our future interest expense on our floating-rate debt, which would reduce our future net income, cash flows from operations and FFO. See Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Report for more information regarding our floating rate debt.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of June 30, 2025, the end of the period covered by this Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our CEO and CFO, regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on the foregoing, our CEO and CFO concluded, as of that time, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act (i) is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and our CFO, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
