EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q combines the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended  March 31, 2017  of Physicians Realty Trust (the “Trust”), a Maryland real estate investment trust, and Physicians Realty L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our,” “our company,” the “Company,” and “Physicians Realty” refer to the Trust, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership. References to the “Operating Partnership” mean collectively the Operating Partnership together with its consolidated subsidiaries. In this report, all references to “common shares” refer to the common shares of the Trust and references to “our shareholders” refer to shareholders of the common shares of the Trust, the term “OP Units” refers to partnership interests of the Operating Partnership and the term “Series A Preferred Units” refers to Series A Participating Redeemable Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership. As of April 28, 2017 , no Series A Preferred Units are outstanding.

The Trust is a self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) formed primarily to acquire, selectively develop, own, and manage healthcare properties that are leased to physicians, hospitals, and healthcare delivery systems. The Trust’s operations are conducted through the Operating Partnership and wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. The Trust, as the general partner of the Operating Partnership, controls the Operating Partnership and consolidates the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the Operating Partnership.

The Trust conducts substantially all of its operations through the Operating Partnership. As of  March 31, 2017 , the Trust held a  96.6%  interest in the Operating Partnership and owns no Series A Preferred Units. Apart from this ownership interest, the Trust has no independent operations.

Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership, shareholders’ equity of the Trust and partners’ capital of the Operating Partnership are the primary areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Trust and those of the Operating Partnership. OP Units not owned by the Trust are accounted for as limited partners’ capital in the Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in the Trust’s consolidated financial statements. The differences between the Trust’s shareholders’ equity and the Operating Partnership’s partners’ capital are due to the differences in the equity issued by the Trust and the Operating Partnership, respectively.

The Company believes combining the Quarterly Reports of the Trust and the Operating Partnership, including the notes to the consolidated financial statements, into this single report results in the following benefits:

a combined report enhances investors’ understanding of the Trust and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;
a combined report eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation, as a substantial portion of the Company’s disclosure applies to both the Trust and the Operating Partnership; and
a combined report creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

To help investors understand the significant differences between the Trust and the Operating Partnership, this report presents the following separate sections for each of the Trust and the Operating Partnership:

the consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this report;
certain accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements, including Note 3 (Acquisitions and Dispositions) and Note 14 (Earnings Per Share and Earnings Per Unit) ;
controls and procedures in Item 4 of this report; and
the certifications of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer included as Exhibits 31 and 32 to this report.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements made pursuant to safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. In particular, statements pertaining to our capital resources, property performance and results of operations contain forward-looking statements. Likewise, all of our statements regarding anticipated growth in our funds from operations and anticipated market conditions, demographics and results of operations are forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “pro forma,” “estimates” or “anticipates” or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases which are predictions of or indicate future events or trends and which do not relate solely to historical matters. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans, expectations or intentions.
 
These forward-looking statements reflect the views of our management regarding current expectations and projections about future events and are based on currently available information. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve numerous risks and uncertainties and you should not rely on them as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements depend on assumptions, data or methods which may be incorrect or imprecise and we may not be able to realize them. We do not guarantee that the transactions and events described will happen as described (or that they will happen at all). The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements:
 
general economic conditions;

adverse economic or real estate developments, either nationally or in the markets where our properties are located;

our failure to generate sufficient cash flows to service our outstanding indebtedness, or our ability to pay down or refinance our indebtedness;

fluctuations in interest rates and increased operating costs;

the availability, terms and deployment of debt and equity capital, including our unsecured revolving credit facility;

our ability to make distributions on our common shares;

general volatility of the market price of our common shares;

our increased vulnerability economically due to the concentration of our investments in healthcare properties;

our geographic concentration in Texas causes us to be particularly exposed to downturns in the Texas economy or other changes in Texas market conditions;

changes in our business or strategy;

our dependence upon key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed;

our ability to identify, hire and retain highly qualified personnel in the future;

the degree and nature of our competition;

changes in governmental regulations, tax rates and similar matters;

defaults on or non-renewal of leases by tenants;

decreased rental rates or increased vacancy rates;
 
difficulties in identifying healthcare properties to acquire and completing acquisitions;

competition for investment opportunities;


1


any adverse effects to Catholic Health Initiatives’ (“CHI”) business, financial position or results of operations that impact the ability of affiliates of CHI to pay us rent;

the impact of our investments in joint ventures;

the financial condition and liquidity of, or disputes with, any joint venture and development partners with whom we may make co-investments in the future;

cybersecurity incidents could disrupt our business and result in the compromise of confidential information;

our ability to operate as a public company;

changes in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP);
 
lack of or insufficient amounts of insurance;
 
other factors affecting the real estate industry generally;

our failure to maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
 
limitations imposed on our business and our ability to satisfy complex rules in order for us to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

changes in governmental regulations or interpretations thereof, such as real estate and zoning laws and increases in real property tax rates and taxation of REITs; and
 
factors that may materially adversely affect us, or the per share trading price of our common shares, including:
 
higher market interest rates;
the number of our common shares available for future issuance or sale;
our issuance of equity securities or the perception that such issuance might occur;
future debt;
failure of securities analysts to publish research or reports about us or our industry; and
securities analysts’ downgrade of our common shares or the healthcare-related real estate sector.

While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. We disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, data or methods, future events or other changes after the date of this report, except as required by applicable law. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements that are based on information currently available to us or the third parties making the forward-looking statements. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could impact our future results, performance or transactions, see Part II, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of this report, and Part I, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 (the “Annual Report”).

Physicians Realty Trust and Physicians Realty L.P.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise the use of the words “we,” “us,” or “our” refers to Physicians Realty Trust and Physicians Realty L.P., collectively.
 
Note 1. Organization and Business
 
Physicians Realty Trust (the “Trust”) was organized in the state of Maryland on April 9, 2013. As of March 31, 2017 , the Trust was authorized to issue up to 500,000,000 common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share (“common shares”). The Trust filed a Registration Statement on Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) with respect to a proposed underwritten initial public offering (the “IPO”) and completed the IPO of its common shares and commenced operations on July 24, 2013.
 
The Trust contributed the net proceeds from the IPO to Physicians Realty L.P. (the “Operating Partnership” and together with the Trust and its consolidated subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership, the “Company”), a Delaware limited partnership, and is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Trust and the Operating Partnership are managed and operated as one entity. The Trust has no significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. The Trust’s operations are conducted through the Operating Partnership and wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. The Trust, as the general partner of the Operating Partnership, controls the Operating Partnership and consolidates the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the Operating Partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of the Trust and the Operating Partnership are the same.
 
The Trust is a self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) formed primarily to acquire, selectively develop, own, and manage healthcare properties that are leased to physicians, hospitals, and healthcare delivery systems.
 
Equity Offerings

On March 17, 2017 , the Trust completed a follow-on public offering of 17,250,000 common shares of beneficial interest, including 2,250,000 common shares issued upon exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option, resulting in net proceeds to it of approximately  $300.7 million . The Trust contributed the net proceeds of this offering to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 17,250,000 OP Units, and the Operating Partnership used the net proceeds of the public offering to repay borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes, including working capital and funding acquisitions.

ATM Program

On August 5, 2016, the Trust and the Operating Partnership entered into separate At Market Issuance Sales Agreements (the “2016 Sales Agreements”) with each of KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Credit Agricole Securities (USA) Inc., JMP Securities LLC, Raymond James & Associates, Inc., and Stifel Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated (the “2016 Agents”), pursuant to which the Trust may issue and sell, from time to time, its common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $300.0 million , through the 2016 Agents (the “2016 ATM Program”). In accordance with the 2016 Sales Agreements, the Trust may offer and sell its common shares through any of the 2016 Agents, from time to time, by any method deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which includes sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange or other existing trading market, or sales made to or through a market maker. With the Trust’s express written consent, sales may also be made in negotiated transactions or any other method permitted by law.

During the quarterly period ended March 31, 2017 , the Trust did not issue and sell any common shares pursuant to any of the 2016 Sales Agreements. As of April 28, 2017 , the Trust has $297.4 million remaining available under the 2016 ATM Program.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Trust’s and the Operating Partnership’s combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 , filed with the Commission on February 24, 2017.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
GAAP requires us to identify entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights and to determine which business enterprise is the primary beneficiary of variable interest entities (“VIEs”). ASC 810 broadly defines a VIE as an entity in which either (i) the equity investors as a group, if any, lack the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of such entity that most significantly impact such entity’s economic performance or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support. We identify the primary beneficiary of a VIE as the enterprise that has both of the following characteristics: (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the entity. We consolidate our investment in a VIE when we determine that we are the VIE’s primary beneficiary. We may change our original assessment of a VIE upon subsequent events such as the modification of contractual arrangements that affect the characteristics or adequacy of the entity’s equity investments at risk and the disposition of all or a portion of an interest held by the primary beneficiary. We perform this analysis on an ongoing basis.
 
For property holding entities not determined to be VIEs, we consolidate such entities in which the Operating Partnership owns 100% of the equity or has a controlling financial interest evidenced by ownership of a majority voting interest. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. For entities in which the Operating Partnership owns less than 100% of the equity interest, the Operating Partnership consolidates the property if it has the direct or indirect ability to control the entities’ activities based upon the terms of the respective entities’ ownership agreements. For these entities, the Operating Partnership records a noncontrolling interest representing equity held by noncontrolling interests.
 
Noncontrolling Interests
 
The Company presents the portion of any equity it does not own in entities that it controls (and thus consolidates) as noncontrolling interests and classifies such interests as a component of consolidated equity, separate from the Company’s total shareholders’ equity, on the consolidated balance sheets.
 
Operating Partnership: Net income or loss is allocated to noncontrolling interests (limited partners) based on their respective ownership percentage of the Operating Partnership. The ownership percentage is calculated by dividing the number of OP Units held by the noncontrolling interests by the total OP Units held by the noncontrolling interests and the Trust. Issuance of additional common shares and OP Units changes the ownership interests of both the noncontrolling interests and the Trust. Such transactions and the related proceeds are treated as capital transactions.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2017 , the Operating Partnership partially funded a property acquisition by issuing an aggregate of 2,247,817 OP Units valued at approximately $44.3 million . The acquisition had a total purchase price of approximately $78.6 million .

In addition, on January 31, 2017, the Operating Partnership redeemed the noncontrolling interest in a joint venture between the Operating Partnership and Medical Center of New Albany I, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company. As consideration, the Operating Partnership paid approximately $2.1 million  in cash and issued  38,641  OP Units, representing an aggregate  $2.8 million .

Noncontrolling interests in the Company include OP Units held by other investors. As of March 31, 2017 , the Trust held a 96.6% interest in the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner and the majority interest holder, the Trust consolidates the financial position and results of operations of the Operating Partnership.
 

14


Holders of OP Units may not transfer their OP Units without the Trust’s prior written consent, as general partner of the Operating Partnership. Beginning on the first anniversary of the issuance of OP Units, OP Unit holders may tender their units for redemption by the Operating Partnership in exchange for cash equal to the market price of the Trust’s common shares at the time of redemption or for unregistered common shares on a one-for-one basis. Such selection to pay cash or issue common shares to satisfy an OP Unit holder’s redemption request is solely within the control of the Trust. Accordingly, the Trust presents the OP Units of the Operating Partnership held by investors other than the Trust as noncontrolling interests within equity in the consolidated balance sheets.
 
Partially Owned Properties: The Trust and Operating Partnership reflect noncontrolling interests in partially owned properties on the balance sheet for the portion of consolidated properties that are not wholly owned by the Company. The earnings or losses from those properties attributable to the noncontrolling interests are reflected as noncontrolling interests in partially owned properties in the consolidated statements of income.
 
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests - Series A Preferred Units and Partially Owned Properties

On February 5, 2015, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”) which provides for the designation and issuance of the newly designated Series A Participating Redeemable Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership (“Series A Preferred Units”). Series A Preferred Units have priority over all other partnership interests of the Operating Partnership with respect to distributions and liquidation. Holders of Series A Preferred Units are entitled to a 5% cumulative return and upon redemption, the receipt of one common share and $200 . The holders of the Series A Preferred Units have agreed not to cause the Operating Partnership to redeem their Series A Preferred Units prior to one year from the issuance date. In addition, Series A Preferred Units are redeemable at the option of the holders which redemption obligation may be satisfied, at the Trust’s option, in cash or registered common shares. Instruments that require settlement in registered common shares may not be classified in permanent equity as it is not always completely within an issuer’s control to deliver registered common shares. Due to the redemption rights associated with the Series A Preferred Units, the Company classifies the Series A Preferred Units in the mezzanine section of the consolidated balance sheets.

The Series A Preferred Units were evaluated for embedded features that should be bifurcated and separately accounted for as a freestanding derivative. The Company determined that the Series A Preferred Units contained features that require bifurcation. The Company records the carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interests, less the value of the embedded derivative, at the greater of the carrying value or redemption value in the consolidated balance sheets in accrued expenses and other liabilities.

On February 5, 2015, the acquisition of the Minnetonka MOB was partially funded with the issuance of 44,685  Series A Preferred Units which were valued at  $9.7 million . On December 17, 2015, the acquisition of the Nashville MOB was partially funded with the issuance of  91,236  Series A Preferred Units which were valued at  $19.7 million .

On April 1, 2016, the Series A Preferred Units issued in conjunction with the Minnetonka MOB acquisition were redeemed for a total value of $9.8 million . The fair value of the embedded derivative associated with the previously outstanding Series A Preferred Units was $2.7 million which was derecognized in the course of the redemption.

On January 12, 2017, the Series A Preferred Units issued in conjunction with the Nashville MOB acquisition were redeemed for a total value of $20.0 million . The fair value of the embedded derivative associated with the previously outstanding Series A Preferred Units was $5.6 million which was derecognized in the course of the redemption.

As of March 31, 2017, no Series A Preferred Units are outstanding.

In connection with the acquisition of the Minnetonka MOB, the Trust received a $5 million  equity investment from a third party, effective March 1, 2015. This investment earns a  15% cumulative preferred return. At any point subsequent to the third anniversary of the investment, the holder can require the Trust to redeem the instrument at a price for which the investor will realize a  15%  internal rate of return. Due to the redemption provision, which is outside of the control of the Trust, the Trust classifies the investment in the mezzanine section of its consolidated balance sheet. The Trust records the carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interests at the greater of the carrying value or redemption value.

In connection with the acquisition of the Great Falls Clinic, physicians affiliated with the seller retained a non-controlling interest which may, at the holders option, be redeemed at any time. Due to the redemption provision, which is outside of the control of the Trust, the Trust classifies the investment in the mezzanine section of its consolidated balance sheet. The Trust records the carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interests at the greater of the carrying value or redemption value.

Dividends and Distributions
 
On March 17, 2017 , the Trust announced that its Board of Trustees authorized and the Trust declared a cash dividend of $0.225 per common share for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2017 . The distribution was paid on April 18, 2017 to common shareholders and OP Unit holders of record as of the close of business on April 5, 2017 .

All distributions paid by the Operating Partnership are declared and paid at the same time as dividends are distributed by the Trust to common shareholders. It has been the Operating Partnership’s policy to declare quarterly distributions so as to allow the Trust to comply with applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), governing REITs. The declaration and payment of quarterly distributions remains subject to the review and approval of the Trust’s Board of Trustees.

Our shareholders are entitled to reinvest all or a portion of any cash distribution on their shares of our common stock by participating in our Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan (“DRIP”), subject to the terms of the plan.
 
Tax Status of Dividends and Distributions

Our distributions of current and accumulated earnings and profits for U.S. federal income tax purposes generally are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. Distributions in excess of these earnings and profits generally are treated as a non-taxable reduction of the shareholders’ basis in the shares to the extent thereof (non-dividend distributions) and thereafter as taxable gain.

Any cash distributions received by an OP Unit holder in respect of its OP Units generally will not be taxable to such OP Unit holder for U.S. federal income tax purposes, to the extent that such distribution does not exceed the OP Unit holder’s basis in its OP Units. Any such distribution will instead reduce the OP Unit holder’s basis in its OP Units (and OP Unit holders will be subject to tax on the taxable income allocated to them by the Operating Partnership in respect of their OP Units when such income is earned by the Operating Partnership, with such income allocation increasing the OP Unit holders’ basis in their OP Units).

Purchases of Investment Properties
 
A property acquired not subject to an existing lease is treated as an asset acquisition and recorded at its purchase price, inclusive of acquisition costs, allocated between the acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities based upon their relative fair values at the date of acquisition. A property acquired with an existing lease is accounted for as a business combination pursuant to the acquisition method in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), and assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including identified intangible assets and liabilities, are recorded at fair value.

The determination of fair value involves the use of significant judgment and estimation. The Company makes estimates of the fair value of the tangible and intangible acquired assets and assumed liabilities using information obtained from multiple sources as a result of pre-acquisition due diligence and generally includes the assistance of a third party appraiser. The Company estimates the fair value of buildings acquired on an “as-if-vacant” basis and depreciates the building value over the estimated remaining life of the building. The Company determines the allocated value of other fixed assets, such as site improvements, based upon the replacement cost and depreciates such value over the assets’ estimated remaining useful lives as determined at the applicable acquisition date. The fair value of land is determined either by considering the sales prices of similar properties in recent transactions or based on internal analyses of recently acquired and existing comparable properties within the Company’s portfolio.
 
In recognizing identified intangible assets and liabilities in connection with a business combination, the value of above or below-market leases is estimated based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflected the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between contractual amounts to be received pursuant to the leases and management’s estimate of market lease rates measured over a period equal to the estimated remaining term of the lease. The capitalized above-market or below-market lease intangibles are amortized as a reduction or addition to rental income over the estimated remaining term of the respective leases plus the term of any renewal options that the lessee would be economically compelled to exercise.
 
In determining the value of in-place leases, management considers current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases in arriving at an estimate of the carrying costs during the expected lease-up period from vacant to existing occupancy. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance, other operating expenses, estimates

16


of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods, and costs to execute similar leases, including leasing commissions, tenant improvements, legal, and other related costs based on current market demand. The values assigned to in-place leases are amortized to amortization expense over the estimated remaining term of the lease. If a lease terminates prior to its scheduled expiration, all unamortized costs related to that lease are written off, net of any required lease termination payments.
 
The Company calculates the fair value of any long-term debt assumed by discounting the remaining contractual cash flows on each instrument at the current market rate for those borrowings, which the Company approximates based on the rate it would expect to incur on a replacement instrument on the date of acquisition, and recognizes any fair value adjustments related to long-term debt as effective yield adjustments over the remaining term of the instrument.
 
Based on these estimates, the Company recognizes the acquired assets and assumed liabilities at their estimated fair values, which are generally determined using Level 3 inputs, such as market rental rates, capitalization rates, discount rates, or other available market data. Initial valuations are subject to change until the information is finalized, no later than 12 months from the acquisition date. The Company expenses transaction costs associated with acquisitions accounted for as business combinations in the period incurred.

Impairment of Intangible and Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company periodically evaluates its long-lived assets, primarily consisting of investments in real estate, for impairment indicators or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the recorded amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. If indicators of impairment are present, the Company evaluates the carrying value of the related real estate properties in relation to the undiscounted expected future cash flows of the underlying operations. In performing this evaluation, management considers market conditions and current intentions with respect to holding or disposing of the real estate property. The Company adjusts the net book value of real estate properties to fair value if the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows, including sales proceeds, is less than book value. The Company recognizes an impairment loss at the time it makes any such determination. If the Company determines that an asset is impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the recorded amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Fair value is typically determined using a discounted future cash flow analysis or other acceptable valuation techniques, which are based, in turn, upon Level 3 inputs, such as revenue and expense growth rates, capitalization rates, discount rates, or other available market data.
 
The Company did not record impairment charges in the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 .

Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations

The Company may sell properties from time to time for various reasons, including favorable market conditions. The Company classifies certain long-lived assets as held for sale once the criteria, as defined by GAAP, has been met. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value minus cost to sell, and are no longer depreciated. Four properties were classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2017 . See Note 3 (Acquisitions and Dispositions) for further detail regarding the properties held for sale.

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
 
The Company reports investments in unconsolidated entities over whose operating and financial policies it has the ability to exercise significant influence under the equity method of accounting. Under this method of accounting, the Company’s share of the investee’s earnings or losses is included in its consolidated statements of income. The initial carrying value of investments in unconsolidated entities is based on the amount paid to purchase the equity interest.
 
Real Estate Loans Receivable
 
Real estate loans receivable consists of seven mezzanine loans and two term loans. Each mezzanine loan is collateralized by an ownership interest in the respective borrower, while the two term loans are secured by equity interests in two medical office building developments, respectively. Interest income on the loans are recognized as earned based on the terms of the loans subject to evaluation of collectability risks and are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and short-term investments with maturities of three or fewer months from the date of purchase.

17


 
The Company is subject to concentrations of credit risk as a result of its temporary cash investments. The Company places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions in order to mitigate that risk.

Escrow Reserves
 
The Company is required to maintain various escrow reserves on certain notes payable to cover future property taxes and insurance and tenant improvements costs as defined in each loan agreement. The total reserves as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 are $3.9 million and $4.3 million , respectively, which are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
 
Deferred Costs
 
Deferred costs consist primarily of fees paid to obtain financing and costs associated with the origination of long-term leases on real estate properties. After the purchase of a property, lease commissions incurred to extend in-place leases or generate new leases are added to deferred lease costs. Deferred lease costs are included as a component of other assets and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of their respective agreements. Deferred financing costs are shown as a direct reduction from the related debt liability. The Company amortizes deferred financing costs as a component of interest expense over the terms of the related borrowings using a method that approximates a level yield.
 
Rental Revenue
 
Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases when collectability is reasonably assured. Recognizing rental revenue on a straight-line basis for leases may result in recognizing revenue for amounts more or less than amounts currently due from tenants. Amounts recognized in excess of amounts currently due from tenants are included in other assets and were approximately $36.6 million and $32.0 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. If the Company determines that collectability of straight-line rents is not reasonably assured, the Company limits future recognition to amounts contractually owed and, where appropriate, establishes an allowance for estimated losses. Rental revenue is adjusted by amortization of lease inducements and above or below market rents on certain leases. Lease inducements and above or below-market rents are amortized over the remaining life of the lease.

Expense Recoveries
 
Expense recoveries relate to tenant reimbursement of real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses that are recognized as expense recovery revenue in the period the applicable expenses are incurred. The reimbursements are recorded at gross, as the Company is generally the primary obligor with respect to real estate taxes and purchasing goods and services from third-party suppliers, has discretion in selecting the supplier, and bears the credit risk of tenant reimbursement.
 
The Company has certain tenants with absolute net leases. Under these lease agreements, the tenant is responsible for operating and building expenses. For absolute net leases, the Company does not recognize expense recoveries.

Derivative Instruments

When the Company has derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, it records them either as an asset or a liability measured at their fair value unless they qualify for a normal purchase or normal sales exception. When specific hedge accounting criteria are not met, changes in the Company’s derivative instruments’ fair value are recognized currently in earnings. Changes in the fair market values of the Company’s derivative instruments are recorded in the consolidated statements of income if the derivative instruments do not qualify for, or the Company does not elect to apply for, hedge accounting. If hedge accounting is applied to a derivative instrument, such changes are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income within the consolidated statement of equity, exclusive of ineffectiveness amounts, which are recognized as adjustments to net income.

To manage interest rate risk for certain of its variable-rate debt, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its risk management strategy. These derivatives are designed to mitigate the risk of future interest rate increases by providing a fixed interest rate for a limited, pre-determined period of time. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. As of March 31, 2017 , the Company had five outstanding interest rate swap contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. For presentational purposes, they are shown as one derivative due to the identical nature of their economic terms. Further detail is provided in Note 7 (Derivatives) .

18



The effective portion of the change in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) on the consolidated balance sheets and is subsequently reclassified into earnings as interest expense for the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 , the Company recognized a $0.2 million loss as a result of hedge ineffectiveness. The Company expects hedge ineffectiveness to be insignificant in the next 12 months.

Income Taxes
 
The Trust elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal tax purposes commencing with the filing of its tax return for the short taxable year ending December 31, 2013. The Trust had no taxable income prior to electing REIT status. To qualify as a REIT, the Trust must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income to its shareholders (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). As a REIT, the Trust generally will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent it distributes qualifying dividends to its shareholders. If the Trust fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost, unless the Internal Revenue Service grants the Trust relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect the Trust’s net income and net cash available for distribution to shareholders. However, the Trust intends to continue to operate in such a manner as to continue qualifying for treatment as a REIT. Although the Trust continues to qualify for taxation as a REIT, in various instances, the Trust is subject to state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.
 
As discussed in  Note 1 (Organization and Business) , the Trust conducts substantially all of its operations through the Operating Partnership. As a partnership, the Operating Partnership generally is not liable for federal income taxes. The income and loss from the operations of the Operating Partnership is included in the tax returns of its partners, including the Trust, who are responsible for reporting their allocable share of the partnership income and loss. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Tenant Receivables, Net
 
Tenant accounts receivable are stated net of the applicable allowance. Rental payments under these contracts are primarily due monthly. The Company assesses the collectability of tenant receivables, including straight-line rent receivables, and defers recognition of revenue if collectability is not reasonably assured. The Company bases its assessment of the collectability of rent receivables on several factors, including, among other things, payment history, the financial strength of the tenant, and current economic conditions. If management’s evaluation of these factors indicates it is probable that the Company will be unable to recover the full value of the receivable, the Company provides a reserve against the portion of the receivable that it estimates may not be recovered. At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the allowance for doubtful accounts was $2.2 million and $2.4 million , respectively.

Management Estimates
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amounts of revenue and expenses reported in the period. Significant estimates are made for the fair value assessments with respect to purchase price allocations, impairment assessments, and the valuation of financial instruments. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
Contingent Liabilities
 
The Company records liabilities for contingent consideration (included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets) at fair value as of the acquisition date and reassesses the fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any changes being recognized in earnings. Increases or decreases in the fair value of contingent consideration can result from changes in discount periods, discount rates, and probabilities that contingencies will be met.

Reclassifications
 
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation, with no effect on the previously reported consolidated balance sheets or consolidated statements of income.
 
Segment Reporting
 
Under the provision of Codification Topic 280, Segment Reporting , the Company has determined that it has one reportable segment with activities related to leasing and managing healthcare properties.

New Accounting Pronouncements
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , which creates a new Topic, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606. The standard is principle-based and provides a five-step model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This standard is effective for interim or annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. Early adoption of this standard is permitted for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company anticipates that adoption of ASU 2014-09 will take place on January 1, 2018 via the modified retrospective approach. Under the full retrospective method, the standard would be applied retrospectively to all reporting periods represented on the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach applies the standard in the year of initial application and presents the cumulative effect of prior periods with an adjustment to beginning retained earnings, with no restatement of comparative periods. As leasing arrangements (which are excluded from ASU 2014-09) represent the primary source of revenue for the Company, the impact of adoption will be limited to the Company’s recognition and presentation of non-lease revenues. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of ASU 2014-09 to its consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases . The update amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. The standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. As a result of adopting ASU 2016-02, the Company will recognize all of its operating leases for which it is the lessee, including ground leases, on its consolidated balance sheets. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019 to its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09,  Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . This update simplifies several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statements of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017, with no material effect on its consolidated financial statements with no adjustments made to prior periods.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business , that clarifies the framework for determining whether an integrated set of assets and activities meets the definition of a business. The revised framework establishes a screen for determining whether an integrated set of assets and activities is a business and narrows the definition of a business, which is expected to result in fewer transactions being accounted for as business combinations. Acquisitions of integrated sets of assets and activities that do not meet the definition of a business are accounted for as asset acquisitions. ASU 2017-01 will be effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2017-01 on its consolidated financial statements.

(5)
The Trust’s borrowings under the term loan feature of the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate which is determined by the Trust’s credit rating, currently equal to LIBOR + 1.80% . The Trust has entered into a pay-fixed receive-variable interest rate swap, fixing the LIBOR component of this rate at  1.07% .

On June 10, 2016, the Operating Partnership, as borrower, and the Trust entered into an amended and restated Credit Agreement with KeyBank National Association, as administrative agent, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., BMO Capital Markets, and Citizens Bank N.A., as joint lead arrangers and co-book runners, BMO Capital Markets and Citizens Bank N.A., as co-syndication agents, and the lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”) which increased the maximum principal amount available under an unsecured revolving credit facility from $750 million to $850 million . The Credit Agreement contains a 7 -year term loan feature allowing the Operating Partnership to borrow in a single drawing up to $250 million , increasing the borrowing capacity to an aggregate $1.1 billion . The Credit Agreement also includes a swingline loan commitment for up to 10% of the maximum principal amount and provides an accordion feature allowing the Trust to increase borrowing capacity by up to an additional $500 million , subject to customary terms and conditions, resulting in a maximum borrowing capacity of $1.6 billion .

On July 7, 2016, the Operating Partnership borrowed $250.0 million under the 7 -year term loan feature of the Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the term loan feature of the Credit Agreement bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate which is determined by the Trust’s credit rating, currently equal to LIBOR + 1.80% . The Trust simultaneously entered into a pay-fixed receive-variable rate swap for the full borrowing amount, fixing the LIBOR component of the borrowing rate to 1.07% , for an all-in fixed rate of 2.87% . Both the borrowing and pay-fixed receive-variable swap have a maturity date of June 10, 2023 .

The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of September 18, 2020 and includes a one year extension option. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at an adjusted LIBOR rate, which is based on the Trust’s investment grade rating under the Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2017 , the Trust had an investment grade rating from Moody’s of Baa3 and as such, borrowings under the revolving credit facility of the Credit Agreement accrued interest on the outstanding principal at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.20% . The Credit Agreement includes a facility fee equal to 0.25% per annum, which is also determined by the Trust’s investment grade rating.
 
The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that, among other things, require compliance with leverage and coverage ratios and maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, as well as covenants that may limit the Trust’s and the Operating Partnership’s ability to incur additional debt or make distributions. The Company may, at any time, voluntarily prepay any revolving or swingline loan under the Credit Agreement in whole or in part without premium or penalty. Prepayments of term borrowings require payment of premiums of up to 2.0% of the amount of prepayment, dependent on the date of such prepayment. As of March 31, 2017 , the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.
 
The Credit Agreement includes customary representations and warranties by the Trust and the Operating Partnership, and imposes customary covenants on the Operating Partnership and the Trust. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, and if an event of default occurs and continues, the Operating Partnership is subject to certain actions by the administrative agent, including without limitation, the acceleration of repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
 
The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit and term loans to the Trust and the Operating Partnership. Base Rate Loans, Adjusted LIBOR Rate Loans, and Letters of Credit (each, as defined in the Credit Agreement) will be subject to interest rates, based upon the Trust’s investment grade rating as follows:

On January 7, 2016, the Operating Partnership issued and sold $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes, comprised of (i) $15.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.03% Senior Notes, Series A, due January 7, 2023, (ii) $45.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.43% Senior Notes, Series B, due January 7, 2026, (iii) $45.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.57% Senior Notes, Series C, due January 7, 2028, and (iv) $45.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.74% Senior Notes, Series D, due January 7, 2031.

As of March 31, 2017 , the Company had total consolidated indebtedness of approximately $1.0 billion . The weighted average interest rate on consolidated indebtedness was 4.06% (based on the 30-day LIBOR rate as of March 31, 2017 , of 0.93% ).

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , the Company incurred interest expense on its debt of $9.3 million and $3.8 million , respectively.
 
Note 7. Derivatives

In the normal course of business, a variety of financial instruments are used to manage or hedge interest rate risk. The Company has implemented ASC 815,  Derivatives and Hedging  (ASC 815), which establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that all derivatives, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, be recorded as either an asset or a liability measured at their fair value unless they qualify for a normal purchase or normal sales exception.

When specific hedge accounting criteria are not met, ASC 815 requires that changes in a derivative’s fair value be recognized currently in earnings. Changes in the fair market values of the Company’s derivative instruments are recorded in the consolidated statements of income if such derivatives do not qualify for, or the Company does not elect to apply for, hedge accounting. If hedge accounting is applied to a derivative instrument, such changes are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income within the consolidated statement of equity, exclusive of ineffectiveness amounts, which are recognized as adjustments to net income.

To manage interest rate risk for certain of its variable-rate debt, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its risk management strategy. These derivatives are designed to mitigate the risk of future interest rate increases by providing a fixed

26


interest rate for a limited, pre-determined period of time. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. As of March 31, 2017 , the Company had five outstanding interest rate swap contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. For presentational purposes, they are shown as one derivative due to the identical nature of their economic terms.

The effective portion of the change in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) on the consolidated balance sheets and is subsequently reclassified into earnings as interest expense for the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 , the Company recognized a $0.2 million loss as a result of hedge ineffectiveness. The Company expects hedge ineffectiveness to be insignificant in the next 12 months.

The following table summarizes the location and aggregate fair value of the interest rate swaps on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets (in thousands):

On January 26, 2017 , the Company entered into a $300.0 million notional amount forward starting swap to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates related to the forecasted issuance of the 4.30% senior notes due in 2027. Upon the issuance of the senior notes on March 7, 2017, the forward starting swap was terminated and we realized a $0.8 million loss which will be recognized over the life of the notes utilizing the effective interest method.

Note 9. Stock-based Compensation
 
The Company follows ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), in accounting for its share-based payments. This guidance requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the employee stock awards. This cost is recognized as compensation expense ratably over the employee’s requisite service period. Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized when incurred. Share-based payments classified as liability awards are marked to fair value at each reporting period. Any common shares issued pursuant to the Company's incentive equity compensation and employee stock purchase plans will result in the Operating Partnership issuing OP Units to the Trust on a one-for-one basis, with the Operating Partnership receiving the net cash proceeds of such issuances.
 
Certain of the Company’s employee stock awards vest only upon the achievement of performance targets. ASC 718 requires recognition of compensation cost only when achievement of performance conditions is considered probable. Consequently, the Company’s determination of the amount of stock compensation expense requires a significant level of judgment in estimating the probability of achievement of these performance targets. Subsequent changes in actual experience are monitored and estimates are updated as information is available.
 
In connection with the IPO, the Trust adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (“2013 Plan”), which made available 600,000 common shares to be administered by the Compensation and Nominating Governance Committee of the Board of Trustees. On August 7, 2014, at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Physicians Realty Trust, the Trust’s shareholders approved an amendment to the 2013 Plan to increase the number of common shares authorized for issuance under the 2013 Plan by 1,850,000 common shares, for a total of 2,450,000 common shares authorized for issuance.

Restricted Common Shares:
 
Restricted common shares granted under the 2013 Plan are eligible for dividends as well as the right to vote. In the three month period ended March 31, 2017 , the Trust granted a total of 133,637 restricted common shares with a total value of $2.6 million to its officers and certain of its employees, which have vesting periods ranging from one to three years.

A summary of the status of the Trust’s non-vested restricted common shares as of March 31, 2017 and changes during the three month period then ended follow:

For all service awards, the Company records compensation expense for the entire award on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , the Company recognized non-cash share compensation of $0.8 million and $0.9 million , respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense at March 31, 2017 was $3.1 million . The Company’s compensation expense recorded in connection with grants of restricted common shares reflects an initial estimated cumulative forfeiture rate of 0% over the requisite service period of the awards. That estimate will be revised if subsequent information indicates that the actual number of awards expected to vest is likely to differ from previous estimates.
 
Restricted Share Units:
 
In March 2017, under the 2013 Plan, the Trust granted restricted share units at a target level of 174,320 to its officers and certain employees and 32,831 to its trustees, which are subject to certain performance, timing, and market conditions and a three -year and two -year service period for officers/employees and trustees, respectively. In addition, each restricted share unit contains one dividend equivalent. The recipient will accrue dividend equivalents on awarded share units equal to the cash dividend that would have been paid on the awarded share unit had the awarded share unit been an issued and outstanding common share on the record date for the dividend.

Approximately 70% of the restricted share units issued to officers and certain employees vest based on certain market conditions. The market conditions were valued with the assistance of independent valuation specialists. The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to calculate the weighted average grant date fair value of  $33.43  per unit for the March 2017 grant using the following assumptions:

With respect to the performance conditions of the March 2017 grant, the grant date fair value of $19.80 per unit was based on the share price at the date of grant. The combined weighted average grant date fair value of the March 2017 restricted share units issued to officers and certain employees is $29.34 per unit.

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , the Trust recognized non-cash share unit compensation expense of $0.7 million and $0.4 million , respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense at March 31, 2017 was $8.0 million .
 
Note 10. Fair Value Measurements
 
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), requires certain assets and liabilities be reported and/or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements and provides a framework for establishing that fair value. The framework for determining fair value is based on a hierarchy that prioritizes the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value.
 
In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
 
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset. These Level 3 fair value measurements are based primarily on management’s own estimates using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques taking into account the characteristics of the asset or liability. In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.
 
The Company’s derivative instruments as of March 31, 2017 consist of five interest rate swaps. For presentational purposes, the Company’s interest rate swaps are shown as a single derivative due to the identical nature of their economic

29


terms, as detailed in the Derivative Instruments section of Note 2 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) and Note 7 (Derivatives) .

The Company’s interest rate swaps are not traded on an exchange. The Company’s derivative assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value based on a variety of observable inputs including contractual terms, interest rate curves, yield curves, measure of volatility, and correlations of such inputs. The Company measures its derivatives at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair values are based on Level 2 inputs described above. The Company considers its own credit risk, as well as the credit risk of its counterparties, when evaluating the fair value of its derivatives.
 
The Company also has assets that under certain conditions are subject to measurement at fair value on a non-recurring basis. This generally includes assets subject to impairment. There were no such assets measured at fair value as of March 31, 2017 .
 
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, payables, and accrued interest are reasonable estimates of fair value because of the short term maturities of these instruments. Fair values for real estate loans receivable and mortgage debt are estimated based on rates currently prevailing for similar instruments of similar maturities and are based primarily on Level 2 inputs.

Note 15. Subsequent Events

On April 7, 2017,  the Trust sold four medical office buildings, representing an aggregate 80,292 square feet, in Georgia for approximately $18.2 million and recognized a gain on the sale of approximately $5.5 million . Due to the Trust’s adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2014-08,  Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (“ASU 2014-08”), which raises the threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations, the Trust did not report this disposition as a discontinued operation.

Item 2.                                  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements, including the notes to those statements, included in Part I, Item 1 of this report, and the Section entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this report. As discussed in more detail in the Section entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” this discussion contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause those differences include those discussed in Part II, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of this report, and Part I, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Year Ended December 31, 2016.
 
Overview
 
We are a self-managed healthcare real estate company organized in April 2013 to acquire, selectively develop, own, and manage healthcare properties that are leased to physicians, hospitals, and healthcare delivery systems. We invest in real estate that is integral to providing high quality healthcare services. Our properties are typically located on a campus with a hospital or other healthcare facilities or strategically located and affiliated with a hospital or other healthcare facilities. We believe the impact of government programs and continuing trends in the healthcare industry create attractive opportunities for us to invest in healthcare related real estate. In particular, we believe the demand for healthcare will continue to increase as a result of the aging population as older persons generally utilize healthcare services at a rate well in excess of younger people. Our management team has significant public healthcare REIT experience and has long established relationships with physicians, hospitals, and healthcare delivery system decision makers that we believe will provide quality investment and growth opportunities. Our principal investments include medical office buildings, outpatient treatment facilities, acute and post-acute care hospitals, as well as other real estate integral to health care providers. We seek to invest in stabilized medical facility assets with initial cash yields of  6.0% to 9.0% . We seek to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our shareholders through a combination of stable and increasing dividends and potential long-term appreciation in the value of our properties and our common shares. 

We have grown our portfolio of gross real estate investments from approximately $124 million at the time of our IPO in July 2013 to approximately $3.2 billion as of March 31, 2017 . Since the date of our IPO through to March 31, 2017, our compounded annual growth rate was  140% . While we expect to continue to grow through property acquisitions and investments as our asset base continues to increase, we expect our annual growth rate to decelerate in the future.

As of March 31, 2017 , our portfolio (including the four properties in Georgia consisting of 80,292 square feet which was subsequently sold on April 7, 2017) consisted of 253 properties located in 30 states with approximately 11,391,821 net leasable square feet, which were approximately 96.5% leased with a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 8.5 years. As of March 31, 2017 , approximately 76.4% of the net leasable square footage of our portfolio was affiliated with a healthcare delivery system or located within approximately 1/4 mile of a hospital campus. We expect to acquire between $800 million and $1 billion of real estate during 2017, including the 2017 acquisitions described in this report, subject to favorable capital market conditions.

We receive a cash rental stream from these healthcare providers under our leases. Approximately 88.5% of the annualized base rent payments from our properties as of March 31, 2017 are from triple-net leases, pursuant to which the tenants are responsible for all operating expenses relating to the property, including but not limited to real estate taxes, utilities, property insurance, routine maintenance and repairs, and property management. This structure helps insulate us from increases in certain operating expenses and provides more predictable cash flow. Approximately 9.1% of the annualized base rent payments from our properties as of March 31, 2017 are from modified gross base stop leases which allow us to pass through certain increases in future operating expenses (e.g., property tax and insurance) to tenants for reimbursement, thus protecting us from increases in such operating expenses.

We seek to structure our triple-net leases to generate attractive returns on a long-term basis. Our leases typically have initial terms of 5 to 15 years and include annual rent escalators of approximately 1.5% to 3.0% . Our operating results depend significantly upon the ability of our tenants to make required rental payments. We believe that our portfolio of medical office buildings and other healthcare facilities will enable us to generate stable cash flows over time because of the diversity of our tenants, staggered lease expiration schedule, long-term leases, and low historical occurrence of tenants defaulting under their leases. As of March 31, 2017 , leases representing 3.2% , 4.4% , and 4.4% of leasable square feet in our portfolio will expire in 2017 , 2018 , and 2019 , respectively.

We intend to grow our portfolio of high-quality healthcare properties leased to physicians, hospitals, healthcare delivery systems and other healthcare providers primarily through acquisitions of existing healthcare facilities that provide

34


stable revenue growth and predictable long-term cash flows. We may also selectively finance the development of new healthcare facilities through joint venture or fee arrangements with premier healthcare real estate developers. Generally, we only expect to make investments in new development properties when approximately 70% or more of the development property has been pre-leased before construction commences. We seek to invest in properties where we can develop strategic alliances with financially sound healthcare providers and healthcare delivery systems that offer need-based healthcare services in sustainable healthcare markets. We focus our investment activity on the following types of healthcare properties:

medical office buildings;
outpatient treatment and diagnostic facilities;
physician group practice clinics;
ambulatory surgery centers; and
specialty hospitals and treatment centers.

We believe that shifting consumer preferences, limited space in hospitals, the desire of patients and healthcare providers to limit non-essential services provided in a hospital setting, and cost considerations, among other trends, continue to drive the industry trend of performing procedures in outpatient facilities that have traditionally been performed in hospitals, such as surgeries and other invasive medical procedures. As these trends continue, we believe that demand for medical office buildings and similar healthcare properties will continue to rise, and that our investment strategy accounts for these trends.

We may invest opportunistically in life science facilities, assisted living, and independent senior living facilities and in the longer term, senior housing properties, including skilled nursing. Consistent with our qualification as a REIT, we may also opportunistically invest in companies that provide healthcare services, and in joint venture entities with operating partners, structured to comply with the REIT Investment Diversification Act of 2007 (“RIDEA”).

In each of December 2015, December 2016 and March 2017, the U.S. Federal Reserve raised its benchmark interest rate by a quarter of a percentage point, and we expect interest rates to continue to rise at a measured pace. In addition, in the latter part of 2016, U.S. government bond prices fell significantly, which is generally inversely correlated with rising interest rates. An increase in interest rates will affect our cost of borrowing (including with respect to our currently outstanding debt not subject to a fixed interest rate) and could adversely affect our business, our financial results and our ability to complete property acquisitions.

The Trust is a Maryland real estate investment trust and elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We conduct our business through an UPREIT structure in which our properties are owned by our Operating Partnership directly or through limited partnerships, limited liability companies or other subsidiaries. The Trust is the sole general partner of our Operating Partnership and, as of March 31, 2017 , owned approximately 96.6% of the OP Units. As of April 28, 2017 , we have 153,496,528 common shares outstanding.

Key Transactions in First Quarter 2017

Property Acquisitions

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 , the Company completed acquisitions of 7 operating healthcare properties and 2 condominium units located in 5 states for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $243.2 million . In addition, the Company completed $2.3 million of loan transactions and $2.8 million of noncontrolling interest buyouts, resulting in total investment activity of approximately $248.3 million . Acquisitions are detailed in Note 3 (Acquisitions and Dispositions) to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this report.

Assets Slated for Disposition

We consider nine properties, representing 319,085 square feet of gross leasable area, to be slated for disposition as of March 31, 2017. These assets consist of five assets affiliated with Foundation Healthcare, Inc. (OTC: FDNH) (“Foundation Healthcare”) and four medical office buildings in Georgia from our legacy portfolio.

Each of the five Foundation Healthcare assets has operated continuously during 2017, resulting in the successful collection of rent on a monthly basis from various tenants and subtenants at each respective property. These collections include the collection of full contractual rents for four consecutive months on the two San Antonio properties, as well as the resumption of full rent from the El Paso Hospital in April. The Foundation MOB in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma remains under PSA, with closing anticipated to occur later in the second quarter.

While we cannot make any assurance that any or all of the Foundation Healthcare assets will be sold, we continue to receive interest from various parties in acquiring each respective asset, and have determined that no further reserves for prior uncollected revenue are required at this time, nor are any impairments to the book value of these assets required as of March 31, 2017.

On April 7, 2017, we completed the sale of the four medical office buildings located in Georgia for approximately $18.2 million , recognizing a gain on the sale of approximately $5.5 million . These assets are considered to be held for sale as of March 31, 2017 and are classified as such on our consolidated balance sheets.

Related Parties

It is the Company’s policy to make disclosures regarding any transactions in which it participates and in which any related person has a direct or indirect material interest and the amount involved exceeds $120,000 to the extent required by SEC rules. The related person transaction policy is available in the Investor Relations section of the Trust’s website (www.docreit.com) under the tab “Governance Documents.” For the three months ended March 31, 2017 , the Company recognized 2017 rental revenues totaling $144,000 from Aurora Health Care, a not-for-profit healthcare provider affiliated with certain members of the Trust’s Board of Trustees.

Financing Transactions

We completed a public senior notes offering and a follow-on equity offering during the first quarter of 2017, each of which are summarized under the heading “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.
 
Recent Developments

On March 17, 2017 , we announced that our Board of Trustees authorized and declared a cash distribution of $0.225 per common share for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2017 . The distribution was paid on April 18, 2017 to common shareholders and OP Unit holders of record as of the close of business on April 5, 2017 .

Disposition Activity
 
On April 7, 2017,  the Trust sold four medical office buildings, representing an aggregate 80,292 square feet, in Georgia for approximately $18.2 million and recognized a gain on the sale of approximately $5.5 million . Due to the Trust’s adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2014-08,  Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (“ASU 2014-08”), which raises the threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations, the Trust did not report this disposition as a discontinued operation.

Components of Our Revenues, Expenses, and Cash Flow

Revenues
 
Revenues consist primarily of the rental revenues and property operating expense recoveries we collect from tenants pursuant to our leases. Additionally, we recognize certain cash and non-cash revenues. These cash and non-cash revenues are highlighted below.
 
Rental revenues. Rental revenues represent rent under existing leases that is paid by our tenants, straight-lining of contractual rents and below-market lease amortization reduced by lease inducements and above-market lease amortization.

36


 
Expense recoveries . Certain of our leases require our tenants to make estimated payments to us to cover their proportional share of operating expenses, including but not limited to real estate taxes, property insurance, routine maintenance and repairs, utilities, and property management expenses. We collect these estimated expenses and are reimbursed by our tenants for any actual expenses in excess of our estimates or reimburse tenants if our collected estimates exceed our actual operating expenses. The net reimbursed operating expenses are included in revenues as expense recoveries.
 
We have certain tenants with absolute net leases. Under these lease agreements, the tenant is responsible for operating and building expenses. For absolute net leases, we do not recognize operating expense or expense recoveries.
 
Interest income on real estate loans and other . Represents interest income on mezzanine loans, term loans, notes receivable, income generated on tenant improvements, changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities, and other. Interest income on the loans are recognized as earned based on the terms of the loans subject to evaluation of collectability risks.
 
Expenses
 
Expenses consist primarily of interest expense, general and administrative costs associated with operating our properties, operating expenses of our properties, depreciation and amortization, and costs we incur to acquire properties.
 
Interest expense. We recognize the interest expense we incur on our borrowings as interest expense. Additionally, we incur amortization expense for charges such as legal fees, commitment fees, and arrangement fees that reflect costs incurred with arranging certain debt financings. We generally recognize these costs over the term of the respective debt instrument for which the costs were incurred as a component of interest expense.
 
General and administrative . General and administrative expenses include certain expenses such as compensation, accounting, legal, and other professional fees as well as certain other administrative and travel costs, and expenses related to bank charges, franchise taxes, corporate filing fees, exchange listing fees, officer and trustee insurance costs, and other costs associated with being a public company.
 
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses include property operating expenses such as real estate taxes, property insurance, routine maintenance and repairs, utilities, and third party property management expenses, some of which are reimbursed to us by tenants under the terms of triple net and modified gross base stop leases.
 
Depreciation and amortization . We incur depreciation and amortization expense on all of our long-lived assets. This non-cash expense is designed under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, to reflect the economic useful lives of our assets.

Acquisition expenses. Acquisition costs are costs we incur in pursuing and closing property acquisitions accounted for as business combinations. These costs include legal, accounting, valuation, other professional or consulting fees, and the compensation of certain employees who dedicate substantially all of their time to acquisition related job functions. We account for acquisition-related costs as expenses in the period in which the costs are incurred and the services are received.
 
Equity in income of unconsolidated entities. We recognize our share of earnings and losses from unconsolidated joint venture investments in Arizona and Louisiana.
 
Cash Flow
 
Cash flows from operating activities. Cash flows from operating activities are derived largely from net income by adjusting our revenues for those amounts not collected in cash during the period in which the revenue is recognized and for cash collected that was billed in prior periods or will be billed in future periods. Net income is further adjusted by adding back expenses charged in the period that is not paid for in cash during the same period. We expect to make our distributions based largely from cash provided by operations.
 
Cash flows from investing activities . Cash flows from investing activities consist of cash that is used during a period for making new investments and capital expenditures, offset by cash provided from sales of real estate investments.
 
Cash flows from financing activities. Cash flows from financing activities consist of cash we receive from debt and equity financings. This cash provides the primary basis for investments in new properties and capital expenditures. While we may invest a portion of our cash from operations into new investments, as a result of the distribution requirements to maintain

37


our REIT status, it is likely that additional debt or equity financings will finance the majority of our investment activity. Cash used in financing activities consists of repayment of debt and distributions paid to shareholders and OP Unit holders.

These were partially offset by the $529.0 million payoff of our revolving credit facility and $30.9 million of dividends paid.
 
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
This report includes Funds From Operations (FFO), Normalized FFO, Normalized Funds Available For Distribution (FAD), Net Operating Income (NOI), Cash NOI, Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. For purposes of Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of operations, balance sheet or statement of cash flows (or equivalent statements) of the company,

39


or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable financial measure so calculated and presented. As used in this report, GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Pursuant to the requirements of Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act, we have provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Funds From Operations (FFO) and Normalized FFO
 
We believe that information regarding FFO is helpful to shareholders and potential investors because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of our properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes ratably over time. We calculate FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP) before noncontrolling interests of holders of OP units, excluding preferred distributions, gains (or losses) on sales of depreciable operating property, impairment write-downs on depreciable assets, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs). Our FFO computation may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not compute FFO in accordance with NAREIT definition or that interpret the NAREIT definition differently than we do. The GAAP measure that we believe to be most directly comparable to FFO, net income, includes depreciation and amortization expenses, gains or losses on property sales, impairments and noncontrolling interests. In computing FFO, we eliminate these items because, in our view, they are not indicative of the results from the operations of our properties. To facilitate a clear understanding of our historical operating results, FFO should be examined in conjunction with net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as presented in our financial statements. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered to be an alternative to net income or loss (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity and is not indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions to shareholders .
 
We use Normalized FFO, which excludes from FFO net change in fair value of derivative financial instruments, acquisition expenses, acceleration of deferred financing costs, and other normalizing items. However, our use of the term Normalized FFO may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may have different methodologies for computing this amount. Normalized FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), as an indicator of our financial performance or of cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP), or as an indicator of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including its ability to make distributions. Normalized FFO should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements .

Normalized Funds Available for Distribution (FAD)

We define Normalized FAD, a non-GAAP measure, which excludes from Normalized FFO non-cash compensation expense, straight-line rent adjustments, amortization of acquired above or below market leases and assumed debt, amortization of deferred financing costs, amortization of lease inducements, and recurring capital expenditures related to tenant improvements and leasing commissions, and includes cash payments from seller master leases and rent abatement payments. Other REITs or real estate companies may use different methodologies for calculating Normalized FAD, and accordingly, our computation may not be comparable to those reported by other REITs. Although our computation of Normalized FAD may not be comparable to that of other REITs, we believe Normalized FAD provides a meaningful supplemental measure of our performance due to its frequency of use by analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of our performance as a REIT. Normalized FAD should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss attributable to controlling interest (computed in accordance with GAAP) or as an indicator of our financial performance. Normalized FAD should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements .

Net Operating Income (NOI) and Cash NOI
 
NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as net income or loss, computed in accordance with GAAP, generated from our total portfolio of properties before general and administrative expenses, acquisition expenses, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, net change in the fair value of derivative financial instruments, gain or loss on the sale of investment properties, and impairment losses. We believe that NOI provides an accurate measure of operating performance of our operating assets because NOI excludes certain items that are not associated with management of the properties. Our use of the term NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may have different methodologies for computing this amount.
 
Cash NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes from NOI straight-line rent adjustments, amortization of acquired above and below market leases, and other non-cash and normalizing items. Other non-cash and normalizing items include items such as the amortization of lease inducements and payments received from seller master leases and rent abatements. We believe that Cash NOI provides an accurate measure of the operating performance of our operating assets because it excludes certain items that are not associated with management of the properties. Additionally, we believe that Cash NOI is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate community. Our use of the term Cash NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as such other companies may have different methodologies for computing this amount.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA
 
We define EBITDA as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense and net change in the fair value of derivative financial instruments. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net change in the fair value of derivative financial instruments, acquisition expenses, non-cash share compensation and other normalizing items. We consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA important measures because they provide additional information to allow management, investors, and our current and potential creditors to evaluate and compare our core operating results and our ability to service debt.

The following is a reconciliation from the Trust’s net income, the most direct financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of operating and interest expenses and other expenditures directly associated with our properties, including:
 
property expenses;
 
interest expense and scheduled principal payments on outstanding indebtedness;
 
general and administrative expenses; and
 
capital expenditures for tenant improvements and leasing commissions.
 
In addition, we will require funds for future distributions expected to be paid to our common shareholders and OP Unit holders in our Operating Partnership.
 
As of March 31, 2017 , we had a total of $117.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and $850.0 million of near-term availability on our unsecured revolving credit facility. Our primary sources of cash include rent we collect from our tenants, borrowings under our unsecured credit facility, and financings of debt and equity securities. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operating activities, and borrowings available under our unsecured revolving credit facility will be adequate to fund any existing contractual obligations to purchase properties and other obligations through the next twelve months. However, because of the 90% distribution requirement under the REIT tax rules under the Code, we may not be able to fund all of our future capital needs from cash retained from operations, including capital needed to make investments and to satisfy or refinance maturing obligations. As a result, we expect to rely upon external sources of capital, including debt and equity financing, to fund future capital needs. If we are unable to obtain needed capital on satisfactory terms or at all, we may not be able to make the investments needed to expand our business or to meet our obligations and commitments as they mature. We will rely upon external sources of capital to fund future capital needs, and, if we encounter difficulty in obtaining such capital, we may not be able to make future acquisitions necessary to grow our business or meet maturing obligations.

Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions, recurring and non-recurring capital expenditures and scheduled debt maturities. We expect to satisfy our long-term liquidity needs through cash flow from operations, unsecured borrowings, issuances of equity and debt securities, and, in connection with acquisitions of additional properties, the issuance of OP Units of our Operating Partnership, and proceeds from select property dispositions and joint venture transactions.

Our ability to access capital in a timely and cost-effective manner is essential to the success of our business strategy as it affects our ability to satisfy existing obligations, including repayment of maturing indebtedness, and to make future investments and acquisitions. Factors such as general market conditions, interest rates, credit ratings on our debt and equity securities, expectations of our potential future earnings and cash distributions, and the trading price of our common shares, each of which are beyond our control and vary or fluctuate over time, all impact our access to and cost of capital. In particular, to the extent interest rates continue to rise, we may experience a decline in the trading price of our common shares, which may impact our decision to conduct equity offerings for capital raising purposes. We will likely also experience higher borrowing costs as interest rates rise, which may also impact our decisions to incur additional indebtedness, or to engage in transactions for which we may need to fund through borrowing.

We expect to continue to utilize equity and debt financings to support our future growth and investment activity. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 , we raised approximately $396.1 million  in net proceeds from a public offering of senior unsecured notes, and approximately $300.7 million in net proceeds from a follow-on public offering of 17,250,000 common shares of beneficial interest.

We also continuously evaluate opportunities to finance future investments. New investments are generally funded from temporary borrowings under our primary unsecured credit facility and the proceeds from financing transactions such as those discussed above. Our investments generate cash from net operating income and principal payments on loans receivable. Permanent financing for future investments, which generally replaces funds drawn under our primary unsecured credit facility, has historically been provided through a combination of the issuance of debt and equity securities and the incurrence or assumption of secured debt.
 

44


We intend to invest in additional properties as suitable opportunities arise and adequate sources of financing are available. We currently are evaluating additional potential investments consistent with the normal course of our business. There can be no assurance as to whether or when any portion of these investments will be completed. Our ability to complete investments is subject to a number of risks and variables, including our ability to negotiate mutually agreeable terms with sellers and our ability to finance the investment. We may not be successful in identifying and consummating suitable acquisitions or investment opportunities, which may impede our growth and negatively affect our results of operations and may result in the use of a significant amount of management resources. We expect that future investments in properties will depend on and will be financed by, in whole or in part, our existing cash, borrowings, including under our unsecured revolving credit facility or the proceeds from additional issuances of equity or debt securities.

While we intend to sell the nine assets slated for disposition for other business reasons, we currently do not expect to sell any of our properties to meet our liquidity needs, although we may do so in the future. 

We intend to refinance at maturity the mortgage notes payable that have balloon payments at maturity. 

We currently are in compliance with all debt covenants in our outstanding indebtedness.

Credit Facility

On June 10, 2016, the Operating Partnership, as borrower, and the Trust entered into an amended and restated Credit Agreement with KeyBank National Association, as administrative agent, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., BMO Capital Markets, and Citizens Bank N.A., as joint lead arrangers and co-book runners, BMO Capital Markets and Citizens Bank N.A., as co-syndication agents, and the lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”) which increased the maximum principal amount available under an unsecured revolving credit facility from $750 million to $850 million . The Credit Agreement contains a 7-year term loan feature allowing us to borrow in a single drawing up to $250 million , increasing the borrowing capacity to an aggregate $1.1 billion . The Credit Agreement also includes a swingline loan commitment for up to 10% of the maximum principal amount and provides an accordion feature allowing us to increase borrowing capacity by up to an additional $500 million , subject to customary terms and conditions, resulting in a maximum borrowing capacity of $1.6 billion .

On July 7, 2016, the Operating Partnership borrowed $250.0 million under the 7 -year term loan feature of the Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the term loan feature of the Credit Agreement bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate which is determined by the Trust’s credit rating, currently equal to LIBOR + 1.80% . The Trust simultaneously entered into a pay-fixed receive-variable rate swap for the full borrowing amount, fixing the LIBOR component of the borrowing rate to 1.07% , for an all-in fixed rate of 2.87% . Both the borrowing and pay-fixed receive-variable swap have a maturity date of June 10, 2023 .

The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of September 18, 2020 and includes a one year extension option. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at an adjusted LIBOR rate, which is based on the Trust’s investment grade rating under the Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2017 , the Trust had an investment grade rating from Moody’s of Baa3 and as such, borrowings under the revolving credit facility of the Credit Agreement accrued interest on the outstanding principal at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.20% . The Credit Agreement includes a facility fee equal to 0.25% per annum, which is also determined by the Trust’s investment grade rating.
 
The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that, among other things, require compliance with leverage and coverage ratios and maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, as well as covenants that may limit our ability to incur additional debt or make distributions. We may, at any time, voluntarily prepay any revolving or swingline loan under the Credit Agreement in whole or in part without premium or penalty. Prepayments of term borrowings require payment of premiums of up to 2.0% of the amount of prepayment, dependent on date of such prepayment. As of March 31, 2017 , we were in compliance with all financial covenants.
 
The Credit Agreement includes customary representations and warranties by us and imposes customary covenants on us. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, and if an event of default occurs and continues, the Operating Partnership is subject to certain actions by the administrative agent, including without limitation, the acceleration of repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit and term loans to the Operating Partnership. Base Rate Loans, Adjusted LIBOR Rate Loans, and Letters of Credit (each, as defined in the Credit Agreement) will be subject to interest rates, based upon the Trust’s investment grade rating as follows:

As of March 31, 2017 , there were no borrowings outstanding under our unsecured revolving credit facility and $850.0 million available for us to borrow without adding additional properties to the unencumbered borrowing base of assets, as defined by the Credit Agreement.

Senior Notes

On March 7, 2017 , the Operating Partnership issued $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 4.30% Senior Notes due March 15, 2027 (the “Public Senior Notes”) in a public offering (the “Debt Offering”) through underwriters for whom J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Credit Agricole Securities (USA) Inc. and Jefferies LLC acted as representatives (the “Representatives”) pursuant to an underwriting agreement, dated March 2, 2017 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), among the Operating Partnership, the Trust and the Representatives. The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Operating Partnership and the Trust, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Operating Partnership, the Trust and the underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions.

The Public Senior Notes were registered under the Securities Act on the Trust’s and the Operating Partnership’s automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-216214), filed with the Commission on February 24, 2017.

The Public Senior Notes are the senior unsecured indebtedness of the Operating Partnership and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Operating Partnership’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. As a result, the Public Senior Notes effectively are subordinated in right of payment to all of the Operating Partnership’s existing and future secured indebtedness (to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness), and all mortgages, preferred equity and indebtedness and other liabilities, whether secured or unsecured, of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries. The Operating Partnership’s obligations under the Public Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Trust.

The Public Senior Notes began accruing interest on March 7, 2017 and will pay interest semi-annually beginning September 15, 2017 . The Public Senior Notes were sold at an issue price of 99.68% of their face value, before the underwriters’ discount. Our net proceeds from the offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and expenses, were approximately $ 396.1 million . We used the net proceeds of the Debt Offering to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under our unsecured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes, including working capital and funding acquisitions.

The Public Senior Notes are subject to customary events of default, which may result in the accelerated maturity of the Public Senior Notes.

As of March 31, 2017 , we had $625.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes issued and outstanding by the Operating Partnership, as follows: (i) $15.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.03% Senior Notes, Series A, due January 7, 2023, (ii) $45.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.43% Senior Notes, Series B, due January 7, 2026, (iii) $45.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.57% Senior Notes, Series C, due January 7, 2028, (iv) $45.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.74% Senior Notes, Series D, due January 7, 2031, (v) $25.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.09% Senior Notes, Series A, due August 11, 2025, (vi) $25.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.18% Senior Notes, Series B, due August 11, 2026, (vii) $25.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.24% Senior Notes, Series C, due August 11, 2027, and (viii) $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.30% Senior Notes, due March 15, 2027.

The note agreements covering the notes (other than the Public Senior Notes) contain covenants that are substantially similar to those contained in the Credit Agreement, including financial covenants that require compliance with leverage and

46


coverage ratios and maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, as well as other affirmative and negative covenants that may limit, among other things, our ability to incur additional debt, make distributions or investments, incur liens and sell, transfer or dispose of assets. The note agreements also include customary representations and warranties and customary events of default substantially similar to those contained in the Credit Agreement.

Follow-on Equity Offerings

On March 17, 2017, the Trust completed a follow-on public offering of 17,250,000 common shares of beneficial interest, including 2,250,000 common shares issued upon exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option, resulting in net proceeds to it of approximately  $300.7 million . The Trust contributed the net proceeds of this offering to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 17,250,000 OP Units, and the Operating Partnership used the net proceeds of the public offering to repay borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes, including working capital and funding acquisitions.

We currently do not expect to sell any of our properties to meet our liquidity needs, although we may do so in the future.
 
We intend to refinance at maturity the mortgage notes payable that have balloon payments at maturity.
 
We currently are in compliance with all debt covenants in our outstanding indebtedness.

ATM Program
 
On August 5, 2016, the Trust and the Operating Partnership entered into separate At Market Issuance Sales Agreements (the “2016 Sales Agreements”) with each of KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Credit Agricole Securities (USA) Inc., JMP Securities LLC, Raymond James & Associates, Inc., and Stifel Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated (the “2016 Agents”), pursuant to which the Trust may issue and sell, from time to time, its common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $300.0 million , through the Agents (the “2016 ATM Program”). The offering of the common shares from time to time is registered pursuant to the Trust’s and the Operating Partnership’s automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-216214), which became automatically effective upon filing with the Commission on February 24, 2017. In accordance with the 2016 Sales Agreements, the Trust may offer and sell its common shares through any of the 2016 Agents, from time to time, by any method deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which includes sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange or other existing trading market, or sales made to or through a market maker. With the Trust’s express written consent, sales may also be made in negotiated transactions or any other method permitted by law.

Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan
 
On December 2, 2014, we adopted a Dividend Reinvestment and Share Purchase Plan (the “DRIP”). Under the DRIP:

Existing shareholders may purchase additional common shares by reinvesting all or a portion of the dividends paid on their common shares and by making optional cash payments of not less than $50 and up to a maximum of $10,000 per month;
New investors may join the DRIP by making an initial investment of not less than $1,000 and up to a maximum of $10,000; and
Once enrolled in the DRIP, participants may authorize electronic deductions from their bank account for optional cash payments to purchase additional shares.
 
The DRIP is administered by our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A. Our common shares sold under the DRIP will be newly issued or purchased in the open market, as further described in the DRIP. As of April 28, 2017 , we have issued 33,868 common shares under the DRIP since its inception.

  Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report are prepared in conformity with GAAP for interim financial information set forth in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), as published by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), which require us to make estimates and assumptions regarding future events that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We base these estimates on our experience and assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, if our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions or other matters had been different, we may have applied a different accounting treatment, resulting in a different presentation of our financial statements. We periodically reevaluate our estimates and assumptions, and in the event they prove to be different from actual results, we make adjustments in subsequent periods to reflect more current estimates and assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain. Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 , filed with the Commission on February 24, 2017, for further information regarding the critical accounting policies that affect our more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
 
REIT Qualification Requirements
 
We are subject to a number of operational and organizational requirements necessary to qualify and maintain our qualification as a REIT. If we fail to qualify as a REIT or fail to remain qualified as a REIT in any taxable year, our income would be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates and potentially increased state and local taxes and could incur substantial tax liabilities which could have an adverse impact upon our results of operations, liquidity and distributions to our shareholders.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of March 31, 2017 , we have no off-balance sheet debt.

Item 3.                                  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevailing market interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. We use certain derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and only enter into contracts with major financial institutions based upon their credit rating and other factors. Our derivative instruments consist of five interest rate swaps. See Note 2 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) and Note 7 (Derivatives) to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 to this report for further detail on our interest rate swaps.

Interest risk amounts are our management’s estimates and were determined by considering the effect of hypothetical interest rates on our consolidated financial instruments. These analyses do not consider the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur in that environment. Further, in the event of a change of that magnitude, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, these analyses assume no changes in our financial structure.

Fixed Interest Rate Debt

As of March 31, 2017 , our consolidated fixed interest rate debt totaled $735.9 million , which represented 72.2% of our total consolidated debt, excluding the impact of interest rate swaps. On July 7, 2016, we entered into a pay-fixed receive-variable rate swap for the full $250.0 million borrowing amount of our term loan borrowings, fixing the LIBOR component of the borrowing rate to 1.07% , for an all-in fixed rate of 2.87% . Both the borrowing and pay-fixed receive-variable swap have a maturity date of June 10, 2023 .
 
Assuming the effects of the interest rate swap agreement we entered into on July 7, 2016 relating to our unsecured debt, our fixed interest rate debt would represent 96.8% of our total consolidated debt. Interest rate fluctuations on our fixed interest rate debt will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows unless such instruments mature or are otherwise terminated. However, interest rate changes could affect the fair value of our fixed interest rate debt.


48


As of March 31, 2017 , the fair value and the carrying value of our consolidated fixed interest rate debt were approximately $733.5 million and $735.9 million , respectively. The fair value estimate of our fixed interest rate debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis utilizing rates we would expect to pay for debt of a similar type and remaining maturity if the loans were originated on March 31, 2017 . As we expect to hold our fixed interest rate debt instruments to maturity, based on the underlying structure of the debt instrument, and the amounts due under such instruments are limited to the outstanding principal balance and any accrued and unpaid interest, we do not expect that market fluctuations in interest rates, and the resulting change in fair value of our fixed interest rate debt instruments, would have a significant impact on our operating cash flows.

Variable Interest Rate Debt

As of March 31, 2017 , our consolidated variable interest rate debt totaled $282.9 million , which represented 27.8% of our total consolidated debt. Assuming the effects of the interest rate swap agreement we entered into on July 7, 2016 relating to our unsecured debt, our variable interest rate debt would represent 3.2% of our total consolidated debt. Interest rate changes on our variable rate debt could impact our future earnings and cash flows, but would not significantly affect the fair value of such debt. As of March 31, 2017 , we were exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on $32.9 million of consolidated borrowings. Assuming no increase in the amount of our variable rate debt, if LIBOR were to change by 100 basis points, interest expense on our variable rate debt as of March 31, 2017 would change by approximately $0.3 million annually.

Derivative Instruments

As of March 31, 2017 , we had five outstanding interest rate swaps designated as a cash flow hedge of interest rate risk, with a total notional amount of $250.0 million . See Note 7 (Derivatives) within our consolidated financial statements for further detail on our interest rate swaps. We are exposed to credit risk of the counterparty to our interest rate swap agreements in the event of non-performance under the terms of the agreements. If we were not able to replace these swaps in the event of non-performance by the counterparty, we would be subject to variability of the interest rate on the amount outstanding under our debt that is fixed through the use of the swaps.
 
Indebtedness
 
As of March 31, 2017 , we had total consolidated indebtedness of approximately $1.0 billion . The weighted average interest rate on our consolidated indebtedness was 4.06% (based on the 30-day LIBOR rate as of March 31, 2017 , of 0.93% ). As of March 31, 2017 , we had approximately $32.9 million , or approximately 3.2% , of our outstanding long-term debt exposed to fluctuations in short-term interest rates.

Item 4.                                  Controls and Procedures
 
Physicians Realty Trust

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Trust’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Trust’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this report.

50


Based on such evaluation, the Trust’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of March 31, 2017 , the Trust’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information it is required to disclose in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Trust’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
 
There have been no changes in the Trust’s system of internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Operating Partnership’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Operating Partnership’s general partner, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Operating Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report.

PART II.       Other Information
 
Item 1.                                  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. We are not currently a party, as plaintiff or defendant, to any legal proceedings which, individually or in

51


the aggregate, would be expected to have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations if determined adversely to us.
 
Item 1A.                        Risk Factors
 
The following risk factors and other information included in this report should be carefully considered. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. You should also carefully consider the risk factors described in Part I, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the Commission on February 24, 2017 (the “Annual Report”). Our business, financial condition and operating results can be materially adversely affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including, but not limited to, those described below, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, results of operations and financial condition. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and common stock price. In such case, the market value of our securities could be detrimentally affected, and investors may lose part or all of the value of their investment.

The following discussion of risk factors contains forward-looking statements. These risk factors and the risk factors described in Part I, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of the Annual Report may be important to understanding any statement in this report or elsewhere. The following information should be read in conjunction with our consolidated and combined financial statements, and related notes, included in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements” and Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this report.

Because of the following factors, as well as other factors affecting our financial condition and operating results, past financial performance should not be considered to be a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below as well as the risk factors described in Part I, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of the Annual Report.

Risks Related To Our Business

Economic and other conditions that negatively affect geographic areas in which we conduct business, and in particular areas to which a greater percentage of our revenue is attributed, could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition .

Our operating results depend upon our ability to maintain and increase occupancy levels and rental rates at our properties. Adverse economic or other conditions in the geographic markets in which we operate, including periods of economic slowdown or recession, industry slowdowns, periods of deflation, relocation of businesses, changing demographics, earthquakes and other natural disasters, fires, terrorist acts, civil disturbances or acts of war and other man-made disasters which may result in uninsured or underinsured losses, and changes in tax, real estate, zoning and other laws and regulations, may lower our occupancy levels and limit our ability to increase rents or require us to offer rental concessions.

For the quarter ended  March 31, 2017 , approximately 11.8% of our gross leasable area and 13.5% of our total annualized base rent was derived from properties located in Texas. As a result of this geographic concentration, we are particularly exposed to downturns in the Texas economy or other changes in local real estate market conditions. Any material change in the current payment programs or regulatory, economic, environmental or competitive conditions in Texas could have a disproportionate effect on our overall business results. In the event of negative economic or other changes in any of the markets in which we conduct business, our business, financial condition and results of operations, our ability to make distributions to our shareholders and the trading price of our common shares may be adversely affected.

Risks Related to Financings

As of March 31, 2017, we had approximately $250.0 million of borrowings outstanding under our unsecured revolving credit facility (including the term loan feature of our unsecured revolving credit facility). In 2016, we issued an aggregate of $225.0 million of debt and in March 2017, we issued $400.0 million of debt, all of which is senior to our common shares upon liquidation, and we may in the future make offerings of debt or preferred equity securities which may be senior to our common shares for purposes of dividend distributions or upon liquidation, any of which may materially adversely affect the per share trading price of our common shares.

As of March 31, 2017 , there were approximately $250.0 million of borrowings outstanding under our unsecured revolving credit facility (including the term loan feature of our unsecured revolving credit facility). In 2016, we issued $225.0

52


million of aggregate principal amount of senior notes and in March 2017, we issued $400.0 million of aggregate principal amount of senior notes. In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by making additional offerings of debt or equity securities (or causing our Operating Partnership to issue debt securities), including medium-term notes, senior or subordinated notes and classes or series of preferred shares. Upon liquidation, holders of our debt securities and preferred shares and lenders with respect to other borrowings will be entitled to receive our available assets prior to distribution to the holders of our common shares. Additionally, any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of our common shares and may result in dilution to owners of our common shares. Holders of our common shares are not entitled to preemptive rights or other protections against dilution. Our preferred shares would have a preference on liquidating distributions or a preference on dividend payments that could limit our ability pay dividends or other distributions to the holders of our common shares. Because our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, our shareholders bear the risk that our future offerings could reduce the per share trading price of our common shares and dilute their interest in us.

Item 2.                        Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

On January 31, 2017, the Operating Partnership redeemed the noncontrolling interest in DOC-7277 Smith’s Mill Road MOB, LLC, a joint venture between the Operating Partnership and Medical Center of New Albany I, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company. As consideration, the Company paid approximately $2.1 million in cash, and the Operating Partnership issued approximately $0.7 million in OP Units, or 38,641 OP Units, to a certain investor who elected to receive OP Units in lieu of cash (the “MCNA OP Units”).

The MCNA OP Units are redeemable at the option of the holder which redemption obligation may be satisfied, at the Trust’s option, in cash or registered common shares. The investors in the MCNA OP Units have agreed not to cause the Operating Partnership to redeem their OP Units prior to one year from the issuance date.

The MCNA OP Units were issued (a) in private placements in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and/or (b) to recipients who represented that such recipients were each an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The issuances did not involve a public offering, and were made without general solicitation or advertising.

See Part II, Item 5 (Other Information) of this report for a discussion of an additional unregistered OP Units issuance by the Operating Partnership during the quarter ended March 31, 2017.

In addition, from time to time the Operating Partnership issues OP Units to the Trust, as required by the Partnership Agreement, to reflect additional issuances of common shares by the Trust and to preserve equitable ownership ratios.
