Explanatory Note
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the three months ended ended March 31, 2019 of Spirit Realty Capital, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and Spirit Realty, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company” refer to Spirit Realty Capital, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including Spirit Realty, L.P. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references to the “Operating Partnership” refer to Spirit Realty, L.P. together with its consolidated subsidiaries.
Spirit General OP Holdings, LLC ("OP Holdings") is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Company is a real estate investment trust ("REIT") and the sole member of OP Holdings, as well as the special limited partner of the Operating Partnership. As sole member of the general partner of our Operating Partnership, our Company has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility for our Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management and control.
We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of our Company and Operating Partnership into a single report results in the following benefits:
enhancing investors’ understanding of our Company and Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole, reflective of how management views and operates the business;
eliminating duplicative disclosure and providing a streamlined presentation as a substantial portion of the disclosures apply to both our Company and Operating Partnership; and
creating time and cost efficiencies by preparing one combined report in lieu of two separate reports.
There are a few differences between our Company and Operating Partnership, which are reflected in the disclosures in this report. We believe it is important to understand these differences in the context of how we operate as an interrelated, consolidated company. Our Company is a REIT, the only material assets of which are the partnership interests in our Operating Partnership. As a result, our Company does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole member of the general partner of our Operating Partnership, issuing equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of our Operating Partnership. Our Operating Partnership holds substantially all the assets of our Company. Our Company issued convertible notes and guarantees some of the debt of our Operating Partnership. See Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements included herein for further discussion. Our Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes and equity issuances by our Company, which are generally contributed to our Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units of our Operating Partnership, our Operating Partnership generates the capital required by our Company’s business through our Operating Partnership’s operations or our Operating Partnership’s incurrence of indebtedness.
The presentation of stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of our Company and those of our Operating Partnership. The partnership units in our Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners’ capital in our Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements. There are no non-controlling interests in the Company or the Operating Partnership.
To help investors understand the significant differences between our Company and our Operating Partnership, this report presents the consolidated financial statements separately for our Company and our Operating Partnership. All other sections of this report, including “Selected Financial Data,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” are presented together for our Company and our Operating Partnership.
In order to establish that the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each entity have made the requisite certifications and that our Company and Operating Partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, and 18 U.S.C. §1350, this report also includes separate “Item 4. Controls and Procedures” sections and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications for each of our Company and our Operating Partnership.

SPIRIT REALTY CAPITAL, INC. and SPIRIT REALTY, L.P.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2019
(Unaudited)



Note 1. Organization
Organization and Operations
Spirit Realty Capital, Inc. (the "Corporation" or "Spirit" or, with its consolidated subsidiaries, the "Company") operates as a self-administered and self-managed REIT that seeks to generate and deliver sustainable and attractive returns for stockholders by primarily investing in and managing a portfolio of single-tenant, operationally essential real estate throughout the U.S. that is generally leased on a long-term, triple-net basis to tenants operating within retail, office, industrial and data center property types. Single tenant, operationally essential real estate generally refers to free-standing, commercial real estate facilities where tenants conduct activities that are essential to the generation of their sales and profits.The Company began operations through a predecessor legal entity in 2003.
The Company’s operations are generally carried out through Spirit Realty, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") and its subsidiaries. Spirit General OP Holdings, LLC ("OP Holdings"), one of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, is the sole general partner and owns approximately 1% of the Operating Partnership. The Corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary ("Spirit Notes Partner, LLC") are the only limited partners and together own the remaining 99% of the Operating Partnership.
On May 31, 2018 (the "Distribution Date"), the Company completed the spin-off (the "Spin-Off") of the assets that collateralized Master Trust 2014, properties leased to Shopko, and certain other assets into an independent, publicly traded REIT, Spirit MTA REIT ("SMTA"). For periods prior to the Spin-Off, the historical financial results of SMTA are reflected in our consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Operating Partnership have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements include the normal, recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the information required to be set forth therein. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. Certain information and note disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to SEC rules and regulations and, accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as filed with the SEC in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership include the accounts of the Operating Partnership and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company also consolidates a variable interest entity ("VIE") when the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. Determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE is based on whether an entity has (1) the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company's determination of the primary beneficiary of a VIE considers all relationships between the Company and the VIE, including management agreements and other contractual arrangements. The Company evaluated SMTA under ASC 810 Consolidation at time of Spin-Off, and continues to evaluate quarterly thereafter. As a result of this analysis, the Company concluded that while it has variable interests in SMTA, SMTA is not a VIE. Control of SMTA is therefore evaluated under the voting interest model and does not require consolidation by the Company.
All expenses incurred by the Company have been allocated to the Operating Partnership in accordance with the Operating Partnership's first amended and restated agreement of limited partnership, which management determined to be a reasonable method of allocation. Therefore, expenses incurred would not be materially different if the Operating Partnership had operated as an unaffiliated entity.

SPIRIT REALTY CAPITAL, INC. and SPIRIT REALTY, L.P.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - (continued)
March 31, 2019
(Unaudited)

These consolidated financial statements include certain special purpose entities that were formed to acquire and hold real estate encumbered by indebtedness (see Note 4). Each special purpose entity is a separate legal entity and is the sole owner of its assets and responsible for its liabilities. The assets of these special purpose entities are not available to pay, or otherwise satisfy obligations to, the creditors of any affiliate or owner of another entity unless the special purpose entities have expressly agreed and are permitted to do so under their governing documents. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, net assets totaling $0.88 billion and $0.90 billion, respectively, were held, and net liabilities totaling $0.47 billion and $0.48 billion, respectively, were owed by these encumbered special purpose entities and are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Discontinued Operations
A discontinued operation represents: (i) a component of an entity or group of components that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale in a single transaction and represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results or (ii) an acquired business that is classified as held for sale on the date of acquisition. Examples of a strategic shift include disposing of: (i) a separate major line of business, (ii) a separate major geographic area of operations, or (iii) other major parts of the Company. The Company determined that the Spin-Off represented a strategic shift that has a major effect on the Company's results and, therefore, SMTA's operations qualify as discontinued operations. See Note 12 for further discussion on discontinued operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management believes its estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Segment Reporting
The Company views its operations as one segment, which consists of net leasing operations. The Company has no other reportable segments.
Revenue Recognition
Rental Income: Cash and Straight-line Rent
The Company primarily leases real estate to its tenants under long-term, triple-net leases that are classified as operating leases. To evaluate lease classification, the Company assesses the terms and conditions of the lease to determine the appropriate lease term. For the majority of our operating leases at March 31, 2019, the lease includes one or more options to extend, typically for a period of five to ten years per renewal option. Excluding Walgreen Co., less than 1% of the Company's operating leases at March 31, 2019 include an option to terminate. Walgreen Co. leases are generally for fifty years or more with several five year termination periods after an initial non-cancelable term. For less than 6% of operating leases at March 31, 2019, the lease includes an option to purchase, where the purchase option is generally determined based on fair market value of the underlying property. The Company does not include any of these options in its evaluation for lease classification purposes or for recognizing rental income unless the Company is reasonably certain the tenant will exercise the option. 
Another component of lease classification which requires significant assumptions and judgment is the amount expected to be derived from the property at the end of the lease term. Generally, the Company assumes a value that is equal to net book value of the property at the date of the assessment, as the Company generally expects fair value to be equal to or greater than net book value. The Company seeks to protect residual value through its underwriting of acquisitions, incorporating the proprietary Spirit Property Ranking Model which is real estate centric. Once a property is acquired, the lessee is responsible for maintenance of the property, including insurance protecting any damage to the property. To further protect residual value, the Company supplements the tenant insurance policy with a master policy covering all properties owned by the Company. As an active manager, the Company will occasionally invest in capital improvements on properties, re-lease properties to new tenants or extend lease terms to protect residual value.

Some of the Company’s leases provide for contingent rent based on a percentage of the tenant’s gross sales. For contingent rentals that are based on a percentage of the tenant’s gross sales, the Company recognizes contingent rental revenue when the change in the factor on which the contingent lease payment is based actually occurs.
The Company’s leases generally provide for rent escalations throughout the lease terms. For leases that have contingent rent escalators indexed to future changes in the CPI, they may adjust over a one-year period or over multiple-year periods. Typically, these CPI-based escalators increase rent at a multiple of any increase in the CPI over a specified period. Because of the volatility and uncertainty with respect to future changes in the CPI and the Company’s inability to determine the extent to which any specific future change in the CPI is probable at each rent adjustment date during the entire term of these leases, increases in rental revenue from leases with this type of escalator are recognized when the changes in the rental rates have occurred.
For leases that provide for fixed contractual escalations, rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis so as to produce a constant periodic rent over the term of the lease. Accordingly, accrued rental revenue, calculated as the aggregate difference between the rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis and scheduled rents, represents unbilled rent receivables that the Company will receive only if the tenants make all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the leases.
Rental income is subject to an evaluation for collectability, which includes management’s estimates of amounts that will not be realized based on an assessment of the risks inherent in the portfolio, considering historical experience, as well as the tenant's payment history and financial condition. The Company records a provision for losses against rental income for amounts that are not probable of collection.
Rental Income: Tenant Reimbursement Revenue
Under a triple-net lease, the tenant is typically responsible for all improvements and is contractually obligated to pay all property operating expenses, such as real estate taxes, insurance premiums and repair and maintenance costs. Certain leases contain additional amounts recoverable from tenants for common area maintenance expenses and certain other recoverable expenses, which are non-lease components. The Company has elected to combine all of its nonlease components, which were determined to have the same pattern of transfer as the related operating lease component, into a single combined lease component. Tenant reimbursement revenue is variable and is recognized as revenue in the period in which the related expenses are incurred, with the related expense included in property costs (including reimbursable). Tenant reimbursements are recorded on a gross basis in instances when our tenants reimburse us for property costs which we incur. Tenant receivables are carried net of any allowances for amounts that are not probable of collection.
Rental Income: Intangible Amortization
Initial direct costs associated with the origination of a lease are deferred and amortized over the related lease term as an adjustment to rental revenue. In-place lease intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining initial term of the related lease and included in depreciation and amortization expense. Above-market lease intangibles are amortized over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases as a decrease in rental revenue. Below-market lease intangibles are amortized as an increase to rental revenue over the remaining initial term of the respective leases, but may be amortized over the renewal periods if the Company believes it is reasonably certain the tenant will exercise the renewal option. If the Company believes it is reasonably certain a lease will terminate early, the unamortized portion of any related lease intangible is immediately recognized in impairments in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company reviews its rent and other tenant receivables for collectability on a regular basis, taking into consideration changes in factors such as the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates, and economic conditions in the area in which the tenant operates. If the collectability of a receivable with respect to any tenant is in doubt, a provision for uncollectible amounts will be established or a direct write-off of the specific receivable will be made. The Company provided for reserves for uncollectible amounts totaling $5.4 million and $4.9 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, against accounts receivable balances of $11.9 million and $12.4 million, respectively. Receivables are recorded within deferred costs

and other assets, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Receivables are written off against the reserves for uncollectible amounts when all possible means of collection have been exhausted.
For receivable balances related to the straight-line method of reporting rental revenue, the collectability is assessed in conjunction with the evaluation of rental income as described above. The Company has a reserve for losses of $2.0 million and $1.1 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, against straight-line receivables of $73.0 million and $69.4 million, respectively. These receivables are recorded within deferred costs and other assets, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and highly liquid investment securities with maturities at acquisition of three months or less. The Company invests cash primarily in money market funds of major financial institutions with fund investments consisting of highly-rated money market instruments and other short-term investments. Restricted cash is classified within deferred costs and other assets, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Goodwill
Goodwill arises from business combinations and represents the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net fair value amounts that were assigned to the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value. No impairment was recorded for the periods presented.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax provided it continues to satisfy certain tests concerning the Company’s sources of income, the nature of its assets, the amounts distributed to its stockholders and the ownership of Company stock. Management believes the Company has qualified and will continue to qualify as a REIT and therefore, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to state and local income and franchise taxes, and to federal income tax and excise tax on its undistributed income. Taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through any of the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries is subject to federal, state, and local taxes, which are not material.

The Operating Partnership is a partnership for federal income tax purposes. Partnerships are pass-through entities and are not subject to U.S. federal income taxes, therefore no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. Although most states and cities where the Operating Partnership operates follow the U.S. federal income tax treatment, there are certain jurisdictions such as Texas, Tennessee and Ohio that impose income or franchise taxes on a partnership.
Franchise taxes are included in general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes the existing guidance for lease accounting Leases (Topic 840). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize leases on their balance sheets, and leaves lessor accounting largely unchanged. Leases pursuant to which the Company is the lessee consist of its corporate office, ground leases and equipment leases. The amendments in this ASU are effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years, and as such, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02 effective January 1, 2019. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to elect to use certain transition relief as follows:
The Company elected to use the package of practical expedients, which permits the Company to not reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (3) any initial direct costs for any existing leases as of the effective date.
The Company elected to use the comparative period expedient, which permits the Company to recognize any cumulative adjustments as of the date of initial application and not record adjustments to prior reported periods. As a result of this election, bad debt expense is being presented in "rental income" on a prospective basis, compared to "property costs (including reimbursable)" for periods prior to January 1, 2019. Bad debt expense was $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The adoption of the lease standard did not result in a cumulative catch-up adjustment to opening equity.
The Company elected to use the land easements expedient, which permits the Company to not reassess land easements for potential lease classification.
The Company elected to use the components expedient, which permits the Company to not separate nonlease components from lease components if timing and pattern of transfer is the same. The Company elected this expedient for all lessee and lessor operating leases, where certain leases contain nonlease components related to tenant reimbursement, and concluded that the leasing component is the predominant component.
The Company elected not to use the hindsight expedient, which would require the re-evaluation of the lease term on all leases using current facts and circumstances.
As a lessee, the Company recognized the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for our operating leases of $6.4 million and $8.6 million, respectively, on January 1, 2019, which are included in deferred costs and other assets, net and accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. As a lessor, our recognition of rental income remained materially consistent with previous guidance, apart from expanded disclosure requirements. As such, the Company concludes that the overall impact of the ASU had no material impact on the Company's reported revenues, results of operations or financial position.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires more timely recognition of credit losses associated with financial assets. ASU 2016-13 requires financial assets (or a group of financial assets) measured at an amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Per the subsequently issued ASU 2018-19, receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of ASU 2016-13. As such, the Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements, but does not expect its impact to be material.
