CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this Form 10-Q may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. In addition, Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. ("Piedmont," "we," "our," or "us"), or our executive officers on our behalf, may from time to time make forward-looking statements in reports and other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission or in connection with other written or oral statements made to the press, potential investors, or others. Statements regarding future events and developments and our future performance, as well as management’s expectations, beliefs, plans, estimates, or projections relating to the future, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by, or that include the words “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” or other similar words. Examples of such statements in this report include descriptions of our real estate, financing, and operating objectives; discussions regarding future dividends; and discussions regarding potential acquisition and disposition activity and the potential impact of economic conditions on our real estate and lease portfolio, among others.

These statements are based on beliefs and assumptions of our management, which in turn are based on information available at the time the statements are made. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding the demand for office space in the markets in which we operate, competitive conditions, and general economic conditions. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. The forward-looking statements also involve certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

•Economic, regulatory, socio-economic (including work from home and "hybrid" work policies), technological (e.g. artificial intelligence and machine learning, Zoom, etc.), and other changes that impact the real estate market generally, the office sector or the patterns of use of commercial office space in general, or the markets where we primarily operate or have high concentrations of revenue;

•The impact of competition on our efforts to renew existing leases or re-let space on terms similar to existing leases;

•Lease terminations, lease defaults, lease contractions, or changes in the financial condition of our tenants, particularly by one of our large lead tenants;

•Impairment charges on our long-lived assets or goodwill resulting therefrom;

•The success of our real estate strategies and investment objectives, including our ability to implement successful redevelopment and development strategies or identify and consummate suitable acquisitions and divestitures;

•The illiquidity of real estate investments, including economic changes, such as rising interest rates and available financing, which could impact the number of buyers/sellers of our target properties, and regulatory restrictions to which real estate investment trusts ("REITs") are subject and the resulting impediment on our ability to quickly respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties;

•The risks and uncertainties associated with our acquisition and disposition of properties, many of which risks and uncertainties may not be known at the time of acquisition or disposition;

•Development and construction delays, including the potential of supply chain disruptions, and resultant increased costs and risks;

•Future acts of terrorism, civil unrest, or armed hostilities in any of the major metropolitan areas in which we own properties;

•Risks related to the occurrence of cybersecurity incidents, including cybersecurity incidents against us or any of our properties or tenants, or a deficiency in our identification, assessment or management of cybersecurity threats impacting our operations and the public's reaction to reported cybersecurity incidents, including the reputational impact on our business and value of our common stock;

•Costs of complying with governmental laws and regulations, including environmental standards imposed on office building owners;

•Uninsured losses or losses in excess of our insurance coverage, and our inability to obtain adequate insurance coverage at a reasonable cost;

•Additional risks and costs associated with directly managing properties occupied by government tenants, such as potential changes in the political environment, a reduction in federal or state funding of our governmental tenants, or an increased risk of default by government tenants during periods in which state or federal governments are shut down or on furlough;

•Significant price and volume fluctuations in the public markets, including on the exchange which we listed our common stock;

•Risks associated with incurring mortgage and other indebtedness, including changing capital reserve requirements on our lenders and rising interest rates for new debt financings;

Table of Contents

•A downgrade in our credit ratings, the credit ratings of Piedmont Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") or the credit ratings of our or the Operating Partnership's unsecured debt securities, which could, among other effects, trigger an increase in the stated rate of one or more of our unsecured debt instruments;

•The effect of future offerings of debt or equity securities on the value of our common stock;

•Additional risks and costs associated with inflation and potential increases in the rate of inflation, including the impact of a possible recession, and any changes in governmental rules, regulations, and fiscal policies;

•Uncertainties associated with environmental and regulatory matters;

•Changes in the financial condition of our tenants directly or indirectly resulting from geopolitical developments that could negatively affect important supply chains and international trade, the termination or threatened termination of existing international trade agreements, or the implementation of tariffs or retaliatory tariffs on imported or exported goods;

•The effect of any litigation to which we are, or may become, subject;

•Additional risks and costs associated with owning properties occupied by tenants in particular industries, such as oil and gas, hospitality, travel, co-working, etc., including risks of default during start-up and during economic downturns;

•Changes in tax laws impacting REITs and real estate in general, as well as our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or other tax law changes which may adversely affect our stockholders;

•The future effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures;

•Actual or threatened public health epidemics or outbreaks, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as governmental and private measures taken to combat such health crises; and

•Other factors, including the risk factors discussed under Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Management believes these forward-looking statements are reasonable; however, undue reliance should not be placed on any forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and management undertakes no obligation to update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events.

Information Regarding Disclosures Presented

Annualized Lease Revenue ("ALR") is calculated by multiplying (i) current rental payments (defined as base rent plus operating expense reimbursements, if payable by the tenant on a monthly basis under the terms of a lease that has been executed, but excluding (a) rental abatements and (b) rental payments related to executed but not commenced leases for space that was covered by an existing lease), by (ii) 12. In instances in which contractual rents or operating expense reimbursements are collected on an annual, semi-annual, or quarterly basis, such amounts are multiplied by a factor of 1, 2, or 4, respectively, to calculate the annualized figure. For leases that have been executed but not commenced relating to unleased space, ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) the monthly base rental payment (excluding abatements) plus any operating expense reimbursements for the initial month of the lease term, by (ii) 12. Unless stated otherwise, this measure excludes revenues associated with development properties and properties taken out of service for redevelopment, if any.

Piedmont was incorporated in 1997 and commenced operations in 1998. Piedmont conducts business through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Piedmont Operating Partnership, L.P. (“Piedmont OP”), a Delaware limited partnership. Piedmont OP owns properties directly, through wholly-owned subsidiaries, and through various joint ventures which it controls.

As of June 30, 2024, Piedmont owned and operated a portfolio comprised of 31 in-service projects and three redevelopment projects. The in-service office projects total approximately 15.7 million square feet (unaudited) of primarily Class A office space and were 87.3% leased as of June 30, 2024.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of Piedmont are prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods. Results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full year’s results.

Piedmont’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Piedmont, Piedmont’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, any variable interest entity ("VIE") of which Piedmont or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries is considered to have the power to direct the activities of the entity and the obligation to absorb losses/right to receive benefits, or any entity in which Piedmont or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries owns a controlling interest. In determining whether Piedmont or Piedmont OP has a controlling interest, the following factors, among others, are considered: equity ownership, voting rights, protective rights of investors, and participatory rights of investors. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in Piedmont’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Further, Piedmont has formed special purpose entities to acquire and hold real estate. Each special purpose entity is a separate legal entity. Consequently, the assets of these special purpose entities are not available to all creditors of Piedmont. The assets owned by these special purpose entities are being reported on a consolidated basis with Piedmont’s assets for financial reporting purposes only.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes. The most significant of these estimates include the underlying cash flows and holding periods used in assessing impairment, judgments regarding the recoverability of goodwill, and the assessment of the collectability of receivables. While Piedmont has made, what it believes to be, appropriate accounting estimates based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date, actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Income Taxes

Piedmont has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and has operated as such, beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 1998. To qualify as a REIT, Piedmont must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income. As a REIT, Piedmont is generally not subject to federal income taxes, subject to fulfilling, among other things, its taxable income distribution requirement. Piedmont is subject to certain taxes related to the operations of properties in certain locations, as well as operations conducted by its taxable REIT subsidiary which have been provided for in the financial statements.

Operating Leases

Piedmont recognized the following fixed and variable lease payments, which together comprised rental and tenant reimbursement revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2024		June 30, 2023		June 30, 2024		June 30, 2023
Fixed payments	$	111,581	$	112,238	$	224,894	$	224,798

Piedmont's right of use asset and corresponding lease liability under the lease was approximately $30,000 and $100,000 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The right of use asset is recorded as a component of prepaid expenses and other assets, whereas the corresponding liability is presented as a component of accounts payable, accrued expenses, and accrued capital expenditures in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, Piedmont recognized approximately $20,000 and $40,000, respectively, of operating lease costs related to its office space lease. As of June 30, 2024, the remaining lease term of Piedmont's right of use asset is approximately 5 months, and the discount rate is 3.86%.

3. Debt

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, Piedmont OP issued $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior notes (the “$400 Million Unsecured Senior Notes”), which mature on July 15, 2029. Upon issuance of the $400 million Unsecured Senior Notes, Piedmont OP received net proceeds of $396 million, reflecting a discount of approximately $4 million which will be amortized to interest expense over the 5-year term of the $400 Million Unsecured Senior Notes using the effective interest method. The $400 Million Unsecured Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Piedmont. Interest on the $400 Million Unsecured Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year commencing January 15, 2025, and is subject to adjustment if Piedmont's corporate credit rating falls below investment grade, as defined in the credit agreement.

The $400 Million Unsecured Senior Notes are subject to certain typical covenants that, subject to certain exceptions including (a) a limitation on the ability of Piedmont and Piedmont OP to, among other things, incur additional secured and unsecured indebtedness; (b) a limitation on the ability of Piedmont and Piedmont OP to merge, consolidate, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of their properties and assets substantially as an entirety; and (c) a requirement that Piedmont maintain a pool of unencumbered assets.

The net proceeds from the $400 Million Unsecured Senior Notes were used to repay the balance outstanding under Piedmont's $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit and the remaining $25 million outstanding on its $215 Million Unsecured 2023 Term Loan (see discussion below). Piedmont intends to use the remaining proceeds from the $400 Million Unsecured Senior Notes, along with any sales proceeds from any potential property dispositions and Piedmont's $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit, to repay the $250 Million Unsecured 2018 Term Loan that matures in March of 2025.

Also, during the six months ended June 30, 2024, Piedmont OP entered into a new $200 Million Unsecured 2024 Term Loan and used the net proceeds, along with its $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit, to repay the remaining $100 million balance on the $200 Million Unsecured 2022 Term Loan Facility and $190 million of the $215 Million Unsecured 2023 Term Loan, resulting in a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $0.4 million related to unamortized financing costs. The remaining $25 million of the $215 Million Unsecured 2023 Term Loan was extended and ultimately paid off with the proceeds of the aforementioned $400 Million Unsecured Senior Notes.

The term of the $200 Million Unsecured 2024 Term Loan is three years, with a maturity date of January 29, 2027. Piedmont may prepay the loan in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty. The stated interest rate spread over Adjusted SOFR can vary from 0.85% to 1.70% based upon the then current credit rating of Piedmont or Piedmont OP, whichever is higher. As of June 30, 2024, the applicable interest rate spread on the loan was 1.30%, and the effective rate was 6.22%.

The $200 Million Unsecured 2024 Term Loan has certain financial covenants that require, among other things, the maintenance of an unencumbered interest rate coverage ratio of at least 1.75, an unencumbered leverage ratio of at least 1.60, a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.50, a leverage ratio of no more than 0.60, and a secured debt ratio of no more than 0.40.

Finally, during the six months ended June 30, 2024, Piedmont repaid the remaining $50.2 million balance of the $400 Million Unsecured Senior Notes due 2024 with proceeds from the disposition of the One Lincoln Park building (see Note 8 below).

(1)All of Piedmont’s outstanding debt as of June 30, 2024 is unsecured and interest-only until maturity, except for the $197 Million Fixed Rate Mortgage, secured by 1180 Peachtree Street.

(2)The all-in stated interest rates for the SOFR selections are comprised of the relevant adjusted SOFR rate (calculated as the base SOFR interest rate plus a fixed adjustment of 0.10%) and is subject to an additional spread over the selected rate based on Piedmont’s or Piedmont OP's current credit rating.

(3)Effective rate after consideration of settled or in-place interest rate swap agreements and issuance discounts.

(4)Piedmont currently intends to repay the outstanding balance on debt due within one year with cash on hand, through selective property dispositions, and/or with borrowings under its existing $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit.

(5)On a periodic basis, Piedmont may select from multiple interest rate options, including the prime rate and various-length SOFR locks on all or a portion of the principal.

(6)Piedmont may extend the term for up to one additional year (through two available six month extensions to a final extended maturity date of June 30, 2027) provided Piedmont is not then in default and upon payment of extension fees.

(7)This term loan has a stated variable rate; however, Piedmont has entered into interest rate swap agreements which effectively fix the interest rate on $80 million of the term loan to 5.50% through February 1, 2026, assuming no change in Piedmont's or Piedmont OP's credit rating. For the remaining variable portion of the loan, Piedmont may select from multiple interest rate options, including the prime rate and various length SOFR locks. See Note 4 for disclosures of Piedmont's derivative instruments.

Piedmont made interest payments on all debt facilities, including interest rate swap cash settlements, of approximately $16.7 million and $21.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and approximately $62.7 million and $45.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Also, Piedmont capitalized interest of

approximately $3.0 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and approximately $5.8 million and $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, Piedmont believes it was in compliance with all financial covenants associated with its debt instruments.

See Note 5 for a description of Piedmont’s estimated fair value of debt as of June 30, 2024.

4. Derivative Instruments

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

In addition to operational risks which arise in the normal course of business, Piedmont is exposed to economic risks such as interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk. In certain situations, Piedmont has entered into derivative financial instruments, specifically interest rate swap agreements, to manage interest rate risk exposure arising from current or future variable rate debt transactions. Interest rate swap agreements involve the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Piedmont’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for Piedmont making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, Piedmont entered into two interest rate swap agreements to partially hedge the risk of changes in the interest-related cash flows associated with the $200 Million Unsecured 2024 Term Loan (see Note 3 above). All of Piedmont's interest rate swap agreements are designated as effective cash flow hedges and are designated using SOFR. The maximum length of time over which Piedmont is hedging its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions is 19 months.

Table of Contents

The gain on Piedmont's interest rate derivatives, including previously settled forward swaps, that was recorded in OCI and the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as a component of interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, is as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
Interest Rate Swaps in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships	June 30, 2024		June 30, 2023		June 30, 2024		June 30, 2023
Amount of gain recognized in OCI	$	828	$	4,107	$	3,260	$	3,022
Amount of previously recorded gain reclassified from OCI into interest expense	$	918	$	818	$	2,022	$	1,320

Total amount of loss on early extinguishment of debt presented in the consolidated statements of operations	$	—	$	—	$	(386)	$	—

Piedmont estimates that approximately $1.6 million will be reclassified from OCI as a decrease in interest expense over the next twelve months. Additionally, see Note 5 for fair value disclosures of Piedmont's derivative instruments.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

Piedmont has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain a provision whereby if Piedmont defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then Piedmont could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. If Piedmont were to breach any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contracts, it could be required to settle its liability obligations under the agreements at their termination value of the estimated fair values plus accrued interest. However, as of June 30, 2024, all of Piedmont's interest rate swap agreements are in an asset position. Additionally, Piedmont has rights of set-off under certain of its derivative agreements related to potential termination fees and amounts payable under the agreements, if a termination were to occur.

5. Fair Value Measurement of Financial Instruments

Piedmont considers its cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, restricted cash and escrows, accounts payable and accrued expenses, interest rate swap agreements, and debt to meet the definition of financial instruments. The following table sets forth the carrying and estimated fair value for each of Piedmont’s financial instruments, as well as its level within the GAAP fair value hierarchy, as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively (in thousands):


	June 30, 2024					December 31, 2023
Financial Instrument	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value		Level Within Fair Value Hierarchy	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value		Level Within Fair Value Hierarchy
Assets:
Cash and cash equivalents (1)	$	138,454	$	138,454	Level 1	$	825	$	825	Level 1
Tenant receivables, net (1)	$	7,619	$	7,619	Level 1	$	7,915	$	7,915	Level 1

Restricted cash and escrows (1)	$	5,368	$	5,368	Level 1	$	3,381	$	3,381	Level 1
Interest rate swaps	$	3,578	$	3,578	Level 2	$	3,032	$	3,032	Level 2
Liabilities:

Debt, net	$	2,221,738	$	2,151,483	Level 2	$	2,054,596	$	1,953,447	Level 2

(1)For the periods presented, the carrying value of these financial instruments approximates estimated fair value due to their short-term maturity.

Piedmont's debt was carried at book value as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023; however, Piedmont's estimate of its fair value is disclosed in the table above. Piedmont uses widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis based on the contractual terms of the debt facilities, including the period to maturity of each instrument, and uses observable market-based inputs for similar debt facilities which have transacted recently in the market. Therefore, the estimated

Table of Contents

fair values determined are considered to be based on significant other observable inputs (Level 2). Scaling adjustments are made to these inputs to make them applicable to the remaining life of Piedmont's outstanding debt. Piedmont has not changed its valuation technique for estimating the fair value of its debt.

Piedmont’s interest rate swap agreements presented above, and as further discussed in Note 4, are classified as “Interest rate swaps” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and were carried at estimated fair value as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The valuation of these derivative instruments was determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis based on the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity of each instrument, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. Therefore, the estimated fair values determined are considered to be based on significant other observable inputs (Level 2). In addition, Piedmont considered both its own and the respective counterparties’ risk of nonperformance in determining the estimated fair value of its derivative financial instruments by estimating the current and potential future exposure under the derivative financial instruments as of the valuation date. The credit risk of Piedmont and its counterparties was factored into the calculation of the estimated fair value of the interest rate swaps; however, as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, this credit valuation adjustment did not comprise a material portion of the estimated fair value. Therefore, Piedmont believes that any unobservable inputs used to determine the estimated fair values of its derivative financial instruments are not significant to the fair value measurements in their entirety, and does not consider any of its derivatives to be Level 3 financial instruments.

6. Impairment Charges

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, management shortened the intended hold period for the 750 West John Carpenter Freeway building located in Irving, Texas and in doing so, determined that the carrying value would not be recovered from the undiscounted future operating cash flows associated with the asset and its eventual disposition. As a result, Piedmont recognized an impairment charge of approximately $17.5 million calculated based on the difference between the carrying value of the asset and the estimated fair value. The estimated fair value was determined based on a negotiated potential selling price with an unrelated, third-party.

Additionally during the six months ended June 30, 2024, Piedmont recognized an impairment loss of approximately $0.9 million in conjunction with the sale of One Lincoln Park located in Dallas, Texas. The offer to purchase, contractual negotiations, due diligence, and completion of the sale all occurred during six months ended June 30, 2024 (see Note 8 for further details).

7. Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments Under Existing Lease Agreements

As a recurring part of its business, Piedmont is typically required under its executed lease agreements to fund tenant improvements, leasing commissions, and building improvements. In addition, certain agreements contain provisions that require Piedmont to issue corporate or property guarantees to provide funding for capital improvements or other financial obligations. As of June 30, 2024, Piedmont had two individually significant tenant allowances commitment greater than $10 million. These commitments will be capitalized as the related expenditures are incurred.

Contingencies Related to Tenant Audits/Disputes

Certain lease agreements include provisions that grant tenants the right to engage independent auditors to audit their annual operating expense reconciliations. Such audits may result in different interpretations of language in the lease agreements from that made by Piedmont, which could result in requests for refunds of previously recognized tenant reimbursement revenues, resulting in financial loss to Piedmont. There were no such reductions during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.

8. Property Disposition and Assets Held for Sale

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, Piedmont sold the One Lincoln Park building located in Dallas, Texas, to an unrelated, third-party owner/user for net sale proceeds of approximately $53.3 million which were used to repay the remaining outstanding balance of approximately $50.2 million on the $400 Million Unsecured Senior Notes due 2024.

Table of Contents

As of June 30, 2024, Piedmont was under a binding contract to sell a 46% leased, 12-story, approximately 315,000 square foot office building located at 750 West John Carpenter Freeway in Dallas, Texas for $23 million. Consequently, the building, which is assigned to the Dallas geographic reportable segment, met the criteria for held for sale classification as of June 30, 2024 and the assets of the property are presented as held for sale as of both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for comparability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Details of amounts held for sale are presented below (in thousands):

Total other assets held for sale, net	$	3,264	$	3,213

9. Stock Based Compensation

On an annual basis, the Compensation Committee of Piedmont's Board of Directors has granted deferred stock award units to certain employees at its discretion. Employee awards typically vest ratably over three or four years. In addition, Piedmont's independent directors receive an annual grant of deferred stock award units for services rendered and such awards vest over a one year service period.

Certain management employees' long-term equity incentive program is allocated between the deferred stock award units described above and a multi-year performance share program whereby actual awards are contingent upon Piedmont's total stockholder return ("TSR") performance relative to the TSR of a peer group of office REITs. The target incentives for these employees, as well as the peer group to be used for comparative purposes, are predetermined by the board of directors, based on advice given by a third-party compensation consultant. The number of shares earned, if any, are determined at the end of the multi-year performance period (or upon termination) and vest immediately. In the event that a participant's employment is terminated prior to the end of the multi-year period, in certain circumstances the participant may be entitled to a pro-rated award based on Piedmont's TSR relative performance as of the termination date. The grant date fair value of the multi-year performance share awards is estimated using the Monte Carlo valuation method and is recognized ratably over the performance period.

11. Earnings Per Share

As Piedmont recognized a net loss for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, earnings per share is computed using basic weighted-average common shares outstanding.

12. Segment Information

Piedmont's President and Chief Executive Officer has been identified as Piedmont's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), as defined by GAAP. The CODM evaluates Piedmont's portfolio and assesses the ongoing operations and performance of its projects utilizing the following geographic segments: Atlanta, Dallas, Orlando, Northern Virginia/Washington, D.C., Minneapolis, New York, and Boston. These operating segments are also Piedmont’s reportable segments. As of June 30, 2024, Piedmont also owned two properties in Houston that do not meet the definition of an operating or reportable segment as the CODM does not regularly review these properties for purposes of allocating resources or assessing performance. Further, Piedmont does not maintain a significant presence nor anticipate further investment in this market. These two properties are the primary contributors to accrual-based net operating income ("NOI") included in "Other" below. During the periods presented, there have been no material inter segment transactions. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as Piedmont's accounting policies.

Accrual-based net operating income ("NOI") by geographic segment is the primary performance measure reviewed by Piedmont's CODM to assess operating performance and consists only of revenues and expenses directly related to real estate rental operations. NOI is calculated by deducting property operating costs from lease revenues and other property related income. NOI reflects property acquisitions and dispositions, occupancy levels, rental rate increases or decreases, and the

recoverability of operating expenses. Piedmont's calculation of NOI may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures calculated by other REITs.

Asset value information and capital expenditures by segment are not reported because the CODM does not use these measures to assess performance.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. (“Piedmont,” "we," "our," or "us"). See also “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” preceding Part I, as well as the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We intend to use cash on hand, cash flows generated from the operation of our properties, net proceeds from the potential disposition of select properties, and borrowings under our $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit as our primary sources of immediate liquidity, including to repay the $250 million Unsecured 2018 Term Loan which is scheduled to mature in March of 2025. Other than the $250 million Unsecured 2018 Term Loan, we currently have no other final debt maturities until 2027. We believe that we have sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations for the foreseeable future.

Our most consistent use of capital has historically been, and we believe will continue to be, to fund capital expenditures for our existing portfolio of properties. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 we incurred the following types of capital expenditures (in thousands):


	Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2024		June 30, 2023

Capital expenditures for redevelopment/renovations	$	40,812	$	21,528

Other capital expenditures, including building and tenant improvements	56,179		50,122
Total capital expenditures (1)	$	96,991	$	71,650

(1)Of the total amounts paid, approximately $8.2 million and $4.4 million relates to soft costs such as capitalized interest, payroll, and other property operating costs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

"Capital expenditures for redevelopment/renovations" during both the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 related to building upgrades, primarily to the lobbies and the addition of tenant amenities at certain of our buildings, including: Galleria Towers in Dallas, Texas; The Exchange in Orlando, Florida; 999 Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia, and 9320 Excelsior Boulevard and One and Two Meridian in suburban Minneapolis, Minnesota, among others, most of which are anticipated to be completed during 2024.

"Other capital expenditures, including building and tenant improvements" includes all other capital expenditures during the period and is typically comprised of tenant and building improvements necessary to lease, maintain, or provide enhancements, including energy efficient equipment, to our existing portfolio of office properties.

We currently do not anticipate incurring any unusually large or material capital expenditures within any given year in order to meet recognized sustainable development standards, and achieve our environmental impact goals.

Given that our operating model frequently results in leases for multiple blocks of space to credit-worthy tenants, our leasing success can result in capital outlays which vary from one reporting period to another based upon the specific leases executed. For leases executed during the six months ended June 30, 2024, we committed to spend approximately $5.85 per square foot per year of lease term for tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions (net of expired lease commitments) as compared to $6.29 (net of expired lease commitments) for the six months ended June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, we had two individually significant unrecorded tenant allowances commitment greater than $10 million.

In addition to the amounts that we have already committed to as a part of executed leases, we also anticipate continuing to incur similar market-based tenant improvement allowances and leasing commissions in conjunction with procuring future leases for our existing portfolio of properties. Both the timing and magnitude of expenditures related to future leasing activity can vary due to a number of factors and are highly dependent on the size of the leased square footage, length of the lease term, and the competitive market conditions of the particular office market at the time a lease is being negotiated, in addition to the impact of inflation and rising costs of construction.

Table of Contents

Although reducing outstanding debt remains our priority, subject to the identification and availability of a few, select investment opportunities and our ability to consummate such acquisitions on satisfactory terms, acquiring new assets consistent with our investment strategy could also be a significant use of capital.

We also use capital resources to pay dividends to our stockholders. The amount and form of payment (cash or stock issuance) of future dividends to be paid to our stockholders will continue to be largely dependent upon (i) the amount of cash generated from our operating activities; (ii) our expectations of future cash flows; (iii) our determination of near-term cash needs for debt repayments, development projects, and selective acquisitions of new properties; (iv) the timing of significant expenditures for tenant improvements, leasing commissions, building redevelopment projects, and general property capital improvements; (v) long-term dividend payout ratios for comparable companies; (vi) our ability to continue to access additional sources of capital, including potential sales of our properties; (vii) our desire to reduce overall leverage; and (viii) the amount required to be distributed to maintain our status as a REIT. With the fluctuating nature of cash flows and expenditures, we may periodically borrow funds on a short-term basis to cover timing differences in cash receipts and cash disbursements, including to pay dividends to our stockholders.

Results of Operations

Overview

Net loss applicable to common stockholders for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately $9.8 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, as compared with net loss applicable to common stockholders of $2.0 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in net loss mainly reflects a $7.5 million increase in interest expense, net of interest income, driven by increased interest rates on our debt during the second quarter of 2024 as compared to the second quarter of 2023.

Revenue

Rental and tenant reimbursement revenue decreased approximately $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of One Lincoln Park completed during first quarter 2024 as well as two large tenant expirations during the six months ended June 30, 2024, largely offset by the roll up of rental rates and new leases commencing during the twelve months ended June 30, 2024.

Other property related income increased approximately $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to higher transient parking at our office projects during the current period, as compared to the prior period.

Expense

Depreciation expense increased approximately $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to additional building and tenant improvements placed in service subsequent to April 1, 2023.

Amortization expense decreased approximately $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to amortization expense associated with certain lease intangible assets at our existing projects becoming fully amortized subsequent to April 1, 2023.

General and administrative expenses increased approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily reflecting increased accruals for potential performance-based compensation, largely associated with executed leasing during the second quarter of 2024.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest expense increased approximately $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily driven by increased interest rates on floating-rate debt during the twelve months ended June 30, 2024 as well as the refinancing of maturing debt at higher rates during the latter half of 2023 and first half of 2024. The increase was partially offset by a $1.6 million increase in capitalized interest associated with various redevelopment projects in progress during the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Other income decreased approximately $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year due to lower average invested cash balances during the second quarter of 2024 as compared to the second quarter of 2023.

Revenue

Rental and tenant reimbursement revenue increased approximately $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the roll up of rental rates, lease commencements, and higher tenant reimbursements as a result of increased recoverable operating expenses during the current period as tenant utilization increased during the twelve months ended June 30, 2024, offset partially by two large lease expirations and the disposition of our One Lincoln Park asset.

Other property related income increased approximately $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to higher transient parking at our office projects during the current period, as compared to the prior period.

Expense

Property operating costs increased approximately $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The variance was primarily due to higher recoverable operating expenses such as janitorial, security, repairs and maintenance and other general expenses as tenant utilization increased during the twelve months ended June 30, 2024. These increased costs were partially offset by a decrease in property operating expenses associated with the sale of One Lincoln Park in March 2024.

Depreciation expense increased approximately $5.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to additional building and tenant improvements placed in service subsequent to January 1, 2023.

Amortization expense decreased approximately $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in amortization expense is associated with certain lease intangible assets at our existing projects becoming fully amortized subsequent to January 1, 2023.

Table of Contents

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we recognized a non-cash impairment charge of approximately $18.4 million primarily related to shortening the projected hold period for one property during the quarter. See Note 6 to our accompanying consolidated financial statements for further details.

General and administrative expenses increased approximately $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily reflecting increased accruals for potential performance-based compensation, largely associated with executed leasing during the first half of 2024.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest expense increased approximately $13.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily driven by increased interest rates on floating-rate debt during the twelve months ended June 30, 2024 as well as the refinancing of maturing debt at higher rates during the latter half of 2023 and first half of 2024. The increase was partially offset by a $3.2 million increase in capitalized interest associated with various redevelopment projects in progress during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Other income decreased approximately $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year due to the use of cash to repay maturing debt in June 2024 resulting in lower average invested cash balances during the first half of 2024 as compared to the first half of 2023.

The $0.4 million loss on early extinguishment of debt for the six months ended June 30, 2024 is comprised of the pro-rata write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs and discounts associated with the early payoff of the $100 million remaining balance on the $200 Million Unsecured 2022 Term Loan Facility which was scheduled to mature in December 2024.

As of June 30, 2024, Piedmont, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Piedmont OP, had four separate issuances totaling approximately $1.6 billion of senior unsecured notes payable outstanding that mature in 2028, 2029, 2030 and 2032 (see Note 3 to our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional details regarding each of these issuances) (collectively, the "Notes"). The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Piedmont OP, rank equally in right of payment with all of Piedmont OP's other existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, and would be effectively subordinated in right of payment to any of Piedmont OP’s future mortgage or other secured indebtedness (to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness) and to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of Piedmont OP’s subsidiaries, whether secured or unsecured.

The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Piedmont, the parent entity that consolidates Piedmont OP and all other subsidiaries. In particular, Piedmont guarantees to each holder of the Notes that the principal and interest on the Notes will be paid in full when due, whether at the maturity dates of the respective loans, or upon acceleration, upon redemption, or otherwise; interest on overdue principal and interest on any overdue interest, if any, on the Notes will also be paid in full when due; and all other obligations of the Issuer to the holders of the Notes will be promptly paid in full. Piedmont's guarantee of the Notes is its senior unsecured obligation and ranks equally in right of payment with all of Piedmont's other existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and guarantees. Piedmont’s guarantee of the Notes is effectively subordinated in right of payment to any future mortgage or other secured indebtedness or secured guarantees of Piedmont (to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness and guarantees); and all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, whether secured or unsecured, of Piedmont’s subsidiaries.

In the event of the bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization or other winding up of Piedmont OP or Piedmont, assets that secure any of their respective secured indebtedness and other secured obligations will be available to pay their respective obligations under the Notes or the guarantee, as applicable, and their other respective unsecured indebtedness and other unsecured obligations only after all of their respective indebtedness and other obligations secured by those assets have been repaid in full.

All non-guarantor subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and have no obligation, contingent or otherwise, to pay any amounts due pursuant to the Notes, or to make any funds available therefore, whether by dividends, loans, distributions or other payments.

Pursuant to Rule 13-01 of Regulation S-X, Guarantors and Issuers of Guaranteed Securities Registered or Being Registered, the following tables present summarized financial information for Piedmont OP as issuer and Piedmont as guarantor on a combined basis after elimination of (i) intercompany transactions and balances among Piedmont OP and Piedmont and (ii) equity in earnings from and investments in any subsidiary that is a non-guarantor (in thousands):

Net Operating Income by Geographic Segment

Our President and Chief Executive Officer is our chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who evaluates our portfolio and assesses the ongoing operations and performance of our projects utilizing the following geographic segments: Atlanta, Dallas, Orlando, Northern Virginia/Washington, D.C., Minneapolis, New York, and Boston. These operating segments are also our reportable segments. Additionally, as of June 30, 2024, we owned two properties in Houston that did not meet the definition of an operating or reportable segment as the CODM does not regularly review these properties for purposes of allocating resources or assessing performance, and we do not maintain a significant presence or anticipate further investment in this market. These two properties are included in "Other" below. See Note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information and a reconciliation of Net income/(loss) applicable to Piedmont to Net Operating Income ("NOI").

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Versus the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

Atlanta

NOI increased due to several leases commencing at our Galleria on the Park project during the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Dallas

NOI increased due to several leases commencing at our Galleria Towers project during the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in the prior year. These increases were partially offset by the sale of One Lincoln Park.

Orlando

NOI decreased primarily due to the expiration of the lease associated with the sole tenant at 501 West Church. The entire building has been re-leased to another tenant; however, the new lease is not expected to commence until late 2025.

Minneapolis

NOI decreased primarily due to the expiration of the leases associated with the sole tenants at two projects: 9320 Excelsior Boulevard, and One and Two Meridian. Both projects have been designated as redevelopment assets during the first half of 2024.

Boston

NOI increased due to a tenant's expansion at our 5 & 15 Wayside Road building in the latter half of 2023 as compared to the first six months of the prior year.

Funds From Operations ("FFO"), Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"), and Adjusted Funds From Operations

(“AFFO”)

Net loss calculated in accordance with GAAP is the starting point for calculating FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO. These metrics are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income/(loss). Management believes that accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient. As a result, we believe that the additive use of FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO, together with the required GAAP presentation, provides a more complete understanding of our performance relative to our competitors and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities.

We calculate FFO in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") definition. NAREIT currently defines FFO as Net income/(loss) (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets, goodwill, and investment in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity, along with appropriate adjustments to those reconciling items for joint ventures, if any. Other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do; therefore, our computation of FFO may not be comparable to the computation made by other REITs.

We calculate Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjusting for gains or losses on the early extinguishment of swaps and/or debt and any significant non-recurring or infrequent items. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income/(loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of our operating performance. We believe that Core FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain infrequent or non-recurring items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to our core recurring business operations. As a result, we believe that Core FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential. Other REITs may not define Core FFO in the same manner as us; therefore, our computation of Core FFO may not be comparable to the computation made by other REITs.

We calculate AFFO by starting with Core FFO and adjusting for non-incremental capital expenditures and then adding back non-cash items including: non-real estate depreciation, straight-lined rents and fair value lease adjustments, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for joint ventures, if any. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income/(loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of our operating performance. We believe that AFFO is helpful to investors as a meaningful supplemental comparative performance measure of our ability to make incremental capital investments in new properties or enhancements to existing properties that improve revenue growth potential. Other REITs may not define AFFO in the same manner as us; therefore, our computation of AFFO may not be comparable to the computation of other REITs.

(1)Core FFO was $0.37 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $0.45 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Approximately $0.06 of the decrease is due to increased interest expense, net of interest income, with the remaining decrease attributable to a combination of the sale of One Lincoln Park during the first quarter of 2024, as well as the expiration of two large leases during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

(2)We define non-incremental capital expenditures as capital expenditures of a recurring nature related to tenant improvements, leasing commissions, and building capital that do not incrementally enhance the underlying assets' income generating capacity. Tenant improvements, leasing commissions, building capital and deferred lease incentives incurred to lease space that was vacant at acquisition, leasing costs for spaces vacant for greater than one year, leasing costs for spaces at newly acquired properties for which in-place leases expire shortly after acquisition, improvements associated with the expansion of a building, and renovations that either enhance the rental rates of a building or change the property's underlying classification, such as from a Class B to a Class A property, are excluded from this measure.

(3)Includes potential dilution under the treasury stock method that would occur if our remaining unvested and potential stock awards vested and resulted in additional common shares outstanding. Such shares are not included when calculating net loss per share applicable to Piedmont for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, as they would reduce the loss per share presented.

Property and Same Store Net Operating Income

Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI") is a non-GAAP measure which we use to assess our operating results. We calculate Property NOI beginning with Net loss (calculated in accordance with GAAP) before adjusting for interest, depreciation and amortization and removing any impairments and gains or losses from sales of property and other significant infrequent items that create volatility within our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our core ongoing business. Furthermore, we remove general and administrative expenses, income associated with property management performed by us for other organizations, and other income or expense items, such as interest income from loan investments. For Property NOI (cash basis), the effects of the reversal of the non-cash general reserve for uncollectible accounts, straight-lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated; while such effects are not adjusted in calculating Property NOI (accrual basis). Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income/(loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of our operating performance. We believe that Property NOI, on either a cash or accrual basis, is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of income generated by our properties alone without our administrative overhead. Other REITs may not define Property NOI in the same manner as we do; therefore, our computation of Property NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

We calculate Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI") as Property NOI attributable to the properties (excluding undeveloped land parcels) that were (i) owned by us during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods; and (ii) that were not out of service for development or redevelopment during those periods. Same Store NOI, on either a cash or accrual basis, is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income/(loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of our operating performance. We believe that Same Store NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of the income generated from the same group of properties from one period to the next. Other REITs may not define Same Store NOI in the same manner as we do; therefore, our computation of Same Store NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

(1)We calculate Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization- Real Estate ("EBITDAre") in accordance with the current NAREIT definition. NAREIT currently defines EBITDAre as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) adjusted for gains or losses from sales of property, impairment losses, depreciation on real estate assets, amortization on real estate assets, interest expense and taxes, along with the same adjustments for joint ventures. Some of the adjustments mentioned can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of our operating performance. We believe that EBITDAre is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding our results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization) and capitalization and capital structure expenses (such as interest expense and taxes). We also believe that EBITDAre can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than us; therefore, our computation of EBITDAre may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.

We believe that Core EBITDA is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the performance of our results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization), as well as items that are not part of normal day-to-day operations of our business.

Overview

Our portfolio consists of office projects located within identified growth submarkets in large metropolitan cities concentrated primarily in the Sunbelt. We typically lease space to creditworthy corporate or governmental tenants on a long-term basis. As of June 30, 2024, our average lease was approximately 14,000 square feet with over six years of lease term remaining. Leased percentage, as well as rent roll ups and roll downs, which we experience as a result of re-leasing, can fluctuate widely between buildings and between tenants, depending on when a particular lease is scheduled to commence or expire.

Leased Percentage

The leased percentage of our in-service portfolio increased slightly to 87.3% leased as of June 30, 2024, as compared to 87.1% leased as of December 31, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we completed over 1.5 million square feet of leasing, including approximately 730,000 square feet of new tenant leases which increased our in-service leased percentage, despite the sale of the One Lincoln Park building during the first quarter of 2024. Scheduled lease expirations for the portfolio for the rest of 2024 are low, representing approximately 3.4% of our ALR, some portion of which may renew. To the extent the square footage from new leases for currently vacant space in our in-service portfolio exceeds or falls short of the square footage associated with non-renewing expirations, such leases would increase or decrease our in-service leased percentage, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, three projects, 222 South Orange Avenue in Orlando, Florida, and 9320 Excelsior Boulevard and One and Two Meridian, both in suburban Minneapolis, Minnesota, were classified as out of service as they undergo redevelopment.

Impact of Downtime, Abatement Periods, and Rental Rate Changes

Commencement of a lease associated with a new tenant typically occurs 6-18 months after the lease execution date, after refurbishment of the space is completed. The downtime between a lease expiration and the new lease's commencement can negatively impact Property NOI and Same Store NOI comparisons (both accrual and cash basis). In addition, office leases for both new and renewing tenants often contain upfront rental and/or operating expense abatement periods which delay the cash flow benefits of the lease even after the new or renewed lease has commenced, negatively impacting Property NOI and Same Store NOI on a cash basis until such abatements expire. As of June 30, 2024, we had approximately 1.6 million square feet of executed leases for vacant space yet to commence or under rental abatement, representing approximately $51 million of future additional annual cash rents.

Table of Contents

If we are unable to replace expiring leases with new or renewal leases at rental rates equal to or greater than the expiring rates, rental rate roll downs could occur and negatively impact Property NOI and Same Store NOI comparisons. As mentioned above, our diverse portfolio and the magnitude of some of our tenants' leased spaces can result in rent roll ups and roll downs that can fluctuate widely on a project-by-project and a quarter-to-quarter basis. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we experienced an 15.2% and 23.0% roll up in cash and accrual rents, respectively, on executed leases related to space vacant one year or less.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, Same Store NOI increased by 5.7% and 3.7% on a cash and accrual basis, respectively, as compared to the same period in the prior year, as newly commenced leases or those with expiring abatements outweighed expiring leases. Same Store NOI comparisons for any given period fluctuate as a result of the mix of net leasing activity in individual properties during the respective period.

Election as a REIT

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code and have operated as such beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 1998. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of our adjusted REIT taxable income, computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and by excluding net capital gains attributable to our stockholders, as defined by the Code. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we may be subject to federal income taxes on our taxable income for that year and for the four years following the year during which qualification is lost and/or penalties, unless the IRS grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect our net income/(loss) and net cash available for distribution to our stockholders. However, we believe that we are organized and operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT and intend to continue to operate in the foreseeable future in such a manner that we will remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. We have elected to treat one of our wholly owned subsidiaries as a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"). Our TRS performs non-customary services for tenants of buildings that we own, including real estate and non-real estate related-services. Any earnings related to such services performed by our TRS are subject to federal and state income taxes. In addition, for us to continue to qualify as a REIT, our investments in TRS cannot exceed 20% of the value of our total assets.

Inflation

We are exposed to inflation risk, as income from long-term leases is the primary source of our cash flows from operations. There are provisions in the majority of our tenant leases that are intended to protect us from, and mitigate the risk of, the impact of inflation. These provisions include rent steps, reimbursement billings for operating expense pass-through charges, real estate tax, and insurance on a per square-foot basis, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses above certain per square-foot allowances. However, due to the long-term nature of the leases, the leases may not readjust their reimbursement rates frequently enough to fully cover inflation.

Application of Critical Accounting Estimates

Our accounting policies have been established to conform with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus, resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates. There have been no material changes to these policies during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Commitments and Contingencies

We are subject to certain commitments and contingencies with regard to certain transactions. Refer to Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements for further explanation.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our future income, cash flows, and estimated fair values of our financial instruments depend in part upon prevailing market interest rates. Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency, exchange rates, commodity prices, and equity prices. As of June 30, 2024, our potential for exposure to market risk includes interest rate fluctuations in connection with $120 million of the $200 Million 2024 Unsecured Term Loan. As a result, the primary market risk to which we believe we are exposed is interest rate risk. Many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations, and other factors that are beyond our control contribute to interest rate risk, including changes in the method pursuant to which SOFR rates are determined.

Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flow primarily through a low-to-moderate level of overall borrowings, as well as managing the variability in rate fluctuations on our outstanding debt. As such, all of our debt as of June 30, 2024, other than the variable rate facility mentioned above, is currently based on fixed or effectively-fixed interest rates to hedge against volatility in the credit markets. We do not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes, as such all of our debt and derivative instruments were entered into for purposes other than trading purposes.

The estimated fair value of our debt was approximately $2.2 billion and $2.0 billion as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Our interest rate swap agreements in place as of June 30, 2024 carried a notional amount totaling $330 million with a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 4.96%, and our interest swap agreements as of December 31, 2023 carried a notional amount totaling $250 million with a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 4.79%.

As of June 30, 2024, our total outstanding debt subject to fixed, or effectively fixed, interest rates totaling approximately $2.1 billion has an average effective interest rate of approximately 6.04% per annum with expirations ranging from 2025 to 2032. A change in the market interest rate impacts the net financial instrument position of our fixed-rate debt portfolio but has no impact on interest incurred or cash flows for that portfolio.

As of June 30, 2024 our $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit had no amounts outstanding. As such, our only outstanding debt subject to a variable interest rate is $120 million of the $200 Million Unsecured 2024 Term Loan, through the maturity of the interest rate swap agreements in January 2026. The current stated interest rate spread on the $120 million is Adjusted SOFR plus 1.30% per annum (based on our current corporate credit rating), which, as of June 30, 2024, resulted in a total interest rate of 6.71%. To the extent that we borrow additional funds in the future under the $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit or potential future variable-rate debt facilities, we would have exposure to increases in interest rates, which would potentially increase our cost of debt. Additionally, a 1.0% increase in variable interest rates on our existing outstanding borrowings as of June 30, 2024 would increase interest expense approximately $1.2 million on a per annum basis.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management’s Conclusions Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report in providing a reasonable level of assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms, including providing a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Impairment Charges	6 Months Ended
Impairment Charges	Jun. 30, 2024
Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
Impairment Charges	Impairment Charges During the six months ended June 30, 2024, management shortened the intended hold period for the 750 West John Carpenter Freeway building located in Irving, Texas and in doing so, determined that the carrying value would not be recovered from the undiscounted future operating cash flows associated with the asset and its eventual disposition. As a result, Piedmont recognized an impairment charge of approximately $17.5 million calculated based on the difference between the carrying value of the asset and the estimated fair value. The estimated fair value was determined based on a negotiated potential selling price with an unrelated, third-party. Additionally during the six months ended June 30, 2024, Piedmont recognized an impairment loss of approximately $0.9 million in conjunction with the sale of One Lincoln Park located in Dallas, Texas. The offer to purchase, contractual negotiations, due diligence, and completion of the sale all occurred during six months ended June 30, 2024 (see Note 8 for further details).

Commitments and Contingencies	6 Months Ended
Commitments and Contingencies	Jun. 30, 2024
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies Commitments Under Existing Lease Agreements As a recurring part of its business, Piedmont is typically required under its executed lease agreements to fund tenant improvements, leasing commissions, and building improvements. In addition, certain agreements contain provisions that require Piedmont to issue corporate or property guarantees to provide funding for capital improvements or other financial obligations. As of June 30, 2024, Piedmont had two individually significant tenant allowances commitment greater than $10 million. These commitments will be capitalized as the related expenditures are incurred. Contingencies Related to Tenant Audits/Disputes Certain lease agreements include provisions that grant tenants the right to engage independent auditors to audit their annual operating expense reconciliations. Such audits may result in different interpretations of language in the lease agreements from that made by Piedmont, which could result in requests for refunds of previously recognized tenant reimbursement revenues, resulting in financial loss to Piedmont. There were no such reductions during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	Jun. 30, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements of Piedmont are prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods. Results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full year’s results.
Principles of Consolidation	Piedmont’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Piedmont, Piedmont’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, any variable interest entity ("VIE") of which Piedmont or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries is considered to have the power to direct the activities of the entity and the obligation to absorb losses/right to receive benefits, or any entity in which Piedmont or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries owns a controlling interest. In determining whether Piedmont or Piedmont OP has a controlling interest, the following factors, among others, are considered: equity ownership, voting rights, protective rights of investors, and participatory rights of investors. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in Piedmont’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. Further, Piedmont has formed special purpose entities to acquire and hold real estate. Each special purpose entity is a separate legal entity. Consequently, the assets of these special purpose entities are not available to all creditors of Piedmont. The assets owned by these special purpose entities are being reported on a consolidated basis with Piedmont’s assets for financial reporting purposes only.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes. The most significant of these estimates include the underlying cash flows and holding periods used in assessing impairment, judgments regarding the recoverability of goodwill, and the assessment of the collectability of receivables. While Piedmont has made, what it believes to be, appropriate accounting estimates based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date, actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes Piedmont has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and has operated as such, beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 1998. To qualify as a REIT, Piedmont must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income. As a REIT, Piedmont is generally not subject to federal income taxes, subject to fulfilling, among other things, its taxable income distribution requirement. Piedmont is subject to certain taxes related to the operations of properties in certain locations, as well as operations conducted by its taxable REIT subsidiary which have been provided for in the financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements Segment Expense Disclosure The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") has issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07). ASU 2023-07 requires expanded disclosure of significant segment expenses which are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"); all entities that have a single reportable segment must provide existing segment disclosures; disclosure of the title and position of the CODM; and entities must disclose the amounts and a qualitative description of "other segment items", representing the difference between segment revenue less segment expenses reported in segment profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 is effective for Piedmont beginning with the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and subsequent interim periods thereafter. Piedmont is currently evaluating the potential impact of adoption; however, Piedmont does not anticipate any material impact to its consolidated financial statements as a result of adoption of ASU 2023-07. Income Tax Disclosure The FASB has issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09). ASU 2023-09 requires expanded disclosure of tax information, including a rate reconciliation and the amounts of annual income taxes paid (net of refunds received), segregated by federal, state, and local jurisdictions. The amendments of ASU 2023-09 also require disclosure of income from continuing operations before income tax separated by domestic and foreign income, and eliminate the requirement to disclose the nature and estimates of the range of reasonable possible changes to unrecognized tax benefits within the following twelve months of the reporting period end. ASU 2023-09 is effective for Piedmont beginning with the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Piedmont is currently evaluating the potential impact of adoption; however, Piedmont does not anticipate any material impact to its consolidated financial statements as a result of adoption of ASU 2023-09.
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives	Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives In addition to operational risks which arise in the normal course of business, Piedmont is exposed to economic risks such as interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk. In certain situations, Piedmont has entered into derivative financial instruments, specifically interest rate swap agreements, to manage interest rate risk exposure arising from current or future variable rate debt transactions. Interest rate swap agreements involve the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Piedmont’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements.
