Table of Contents Executive Overview
Our mission is to make real estate investments, primarily focused on the
multifamily sector within the continental
Our value proposition includes the benefits of an established multifamily investment platform coupled with significant growth potential resulting from the redeployment of Aimco equity in to a deep and growing pipeline of highly accretive investment opportunities.
• Platform: We have successfully developed or redeveloped multifamily
assets worth in excess of$4.5 billion and have overseen real estate transactions totaling more than$7 billion over the past decade.
• Growth: We offer investors a high performing, high return, vehicle with
expected annualized returns on equity between 12-16% once target capital
allocation is achieved.
• Pipeline: Aimco benefits from a deep and growing investment pipeline with
$1.0 billion of development and redevelopment projects currently underway, over nine million square feet of future opportunities under Aimco-control and more being explored. Our financial objectives are to produce superior, project-level, risk-adjusted returns on equity as measured by the investment period Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and the project-level Multiple onInvested Capital (MOIC). We are focused on providing superior total-return performance to shareholders, primarily through capital appreciation driven by accretive investment and active portfolio management over multi-year periods. We do not plan to pay a regular cash dividend.
Our capital allocation strategy has been designed to leverage the Aimco investment platform and optimize risk adjusted returns for Aimco shareholders.
Overall, we target a growth-oriented capital allocation, primarily weighted toward direct investment in 'Value Add' and 'Opportunistic' multifamily real estate.
We have policies in place that support its strategy and guide its investment allocations, including to hold at all times a sizeable portion of its net equity in a diversified portfolio of 'Core' and 'Core-Plus' assets.
From time to time, we will allocate a defined portion of our capital into Alternative Investments including passive debt and equity investments (both direct and indirect). Aimco also plans to utilize its established platform and existing relationships to generate fees through service offerings.
Given our stated strategy, it is expected that at any point in time the value-creation process will be ongoing at numerous of our investments. Over time, we expect the Aimco enterprise to produce superior returns on equity on a risk-adjusted basis and it is our plan to do so by:
• Managing and investing in the development and redevelopment of real property
Our dedicated team will source and execute development and redevelopment projects across our national platform.The Aimco Development and Redevelopment portfolio currently includes$1.0 billion of projects in construction and lease-up, located across five major US markets. We are actively advancing planning efforts on pipeline projects under our control with the potential for an additional five million square feet of development and redevelopment. Our portfolio contains additional assets that have the capacity for an approximately four million square feet of development over time. In addition, we have the opportunity to add to our investment pipeline based on strategic relationships and through sourcing by regional investment teams. Generally, we seek Development and Redevelopment opportunities in locations where barriers to entry are high, target customers can be clearly defined and where we have a comparative advantage over others in the market.
• Owning a portfolio of stabilized core and core plus real estate
Our current portfolio includes 28 apartment communities (24 consolidated properties and 4 unconsolidated properties) located in ten major US markets and with average rents in line with local market averages (generally defined as B class). We also own one commercial office building that is part of an assemblage with an adjacent apartment building. The target composition of our stabilized portfolio will continue to include primarily B multifamily assets, spread across a nationally diversified portfolio and with a bias toward long established residential neighborhoods that rank highly in regard to schools, employment fundamental and state and regional governance. Core Plus opportunities offer 30
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
the opportunity for incremental capital investment while maintaining stabilized cashflow to accelerate income growth and improve asset values.
• Managing and investing in other alternative investments
Our current allocation to alternative investments includes: our indirect interest mezzanine loan to the Parkmerced partnership which owns 3,165 apartment homes and future development rights inSan Francisco, California ; our passive equity investments inIQHQ, Inc. ("IQHQ"), a privately-held life sciences real estate development company; andRET Ventures , an early-stage real estate technology fund. We expect to allocate a portion of our capital to passive debt and equity investments, both directly and at the entity level. These prove attractive when warranted by risk adjusted returns, when we have special knowledge or expertise relevant to the particular investment or when the opportunity exists for positive asymmetric outcomes whether through strategic partnerships or otherwise. In addition, from time to time, we will use our established platform and existing relationships to generate fees through service offerings to third party real estate investors, owners, and capital allocators.
• Maintaining sufficient liquidity and utilizing financial leverage
At all times, we will guard our liquidity by maintaining sufficient cash and equivalents at no less than 5% of total equity.
From time-to-time we will allocate capital to financial assets designed to mitigate risks elsewhere in the Aimco enterprise. Existing examples include our option to acquire an interest rate swap designed to protect against repricing risk on maturing Aimco liabilities. We expect to capitalize our activities through a combination of non-recourse property debt, construction loans, third-party equity, and the recycling of Aimco equity, including retained earnings. We plan to limit the use of recourse leverage, with a strong preference towards non-recourse property-level debt in order to limit risk to the Aimco enterprise. When warranted, we plan to seek equity capital from joint venture partners to improve our cost of capital, further leverage Aimco equity, reduce exposure to a single investment and, in certain cases, for strategic benefits.
• Benefiting from a national platform while leveraging local and regional
expertise
We have corporate headquarters inDenver, Colorado , andBethesda, Maryland . Our investment platform is managed by experienced professionals based in four regions:West Coast , Central and Mountain West, Mid-Atlantic and Northeast, and Southeast. By regionalizing this platform, we are able to leverage the in-depth local market knowledge of each regional leader, creating a comparative advantage when sourcing, evaluating, and executing investment opportunities.

We measure residential rent collection as the amount of payments received as a percentage of all residential amounts owed. During the three months endedJune 30, 2021 , we collected 98.3% of all amounts owed by Aimco residents and recognized 98.8% of revenue, reserving 120 basis points as bad debt.1001 Brickell Bay Drive , a waterfront office building inMiami, FL owned as part of a larger assemblage, is currently 73.3% occupied with the pace of tours and inquiries showing favorable indications of future leasing. ThroughJuly 2021 , 99.8% of second quarter rents due have been collected.
Other Investments
Parkmerced Mezzanine Investment : OnNovember 26, 2019 , Aimco made a five-year,$275.0 million mezzanine loan to a partnership owningParkmerced Apartments , located in southwestSan Francisco (the "Mezzanine Investment "). The loan bears interest at a 10% annual rate, accruing if not paid from property operations. The Separation Agreement provides for AIR to transfer ownership of the subsidiaries that originated and hold the mezzanine loan, a related equity option to acquire a 30% interest in the partnership owningParkmerced Apartments and the interest rate option, or swaption, that provides partial protection against future refinancing risk through 2024 to Aimco. At the time of the Separation and as of the date of this report, legal title of these subsidiaries had not yet transferred to Aimco. Until legal title of the subsidiaries is transferred, AIR is obligated to pass payments on such loan to us, and we are obligated to indemnify AIR against any costs and expenses related thereto. We have the risks and rewards of ownership of theMezzanine Investment and have recognized an asset related to our right to receive theMezzanine Investment from AIR. The loan is subject to certain risks, including, but not limited to, those resulting from the severe downturn inSan Francisco rents, the ongoing disruption due to the COVID-19 pandemic and associated governmental response, and the current economic situation which may result in all or a portion of the loan not being repaid. In the event we determine that a portion of theMezzanine Investment is not recoverable, we will recognize an impairment, if appropriate.Life Science Developer Investment : In the third quarter of 2020, Aimco made a$50 million commitment to IQHQ, a privately-held life sciences real estate development company. In addition, Aimco gained the right to collaborate with IQHQ on any multifamily component at its future development sites.
Investment Activity
Leasehold Agreements: OnJanuary 1, 2021 , terms commenced on the leasehold agreements with AIR for 707 Leahy, TheFremont , Prism, andFlamingo Point North Tower . OnJune 1, 2021 , terms commenced on the leasehold agreement with AIR for Robin Drive Land, a 15-acre plot of land in theSan Francisco Bay Area on which we began construction of 16 single family rental homes and 8 accessory dwelling units inJune 2021 . The combined initial value of leasehold interest, as indicative of the initial fair market values of the leased assets at the time of lease inception, was$475.1 million . The combined annual leasehold payment for these five assets is$26.0 million . We expect the total development and redevelopment expenditures related to these assets to be approximately$117.9 million with$42.0 million having been invested as ofJune 30, 2021 . The lease agreements provide Aimco the right to terminate each lease once the leased property is stabilized with AIR then having the option to retain ownership of the land and purchase the improvements from Aimco. Should AIR exercise its option, Aimco would be due the difference between the property's fair-market value at stabilization and the initial value of the leasehold interest, less a 5% discount. Acquisitions: During the three months endedJune 30, 2021 we acquired six properties adjacent to ourHamilton on theBay apartment community inMiami's Edgewater neighborhood, for$12 million . Subsequent to quarter end, we acquired for$7 million an additional two parcels adjacent to ourHamilton on theBay apartment community. In total this land assemblage allows for, as-of-right, the construction of more than 700,000 square feet. As part of our initial acquisition ofHamilton on theBay , we acquired waterfront land that allows for the future development of more than 400,000 square feet. Combined, we can now construct more than 1.1 million square feet of new development in this rapidly growing submarket. During the six months endedJune 30, 2021 , we also acquiredThe Benson Hotel andFaculty Club ("Benson Hotel ") development property for$6.2 million , net of outstanding construction liabilities of$0.9 million . The development property consists of land and initial construction costs. The project is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2023. Balance Sheet 33

Aimco capitalizes its activities through a combination of non-recourse property debt, construction loans, third-party equity, and the recycling of Aimco equity, including retained earnings. We plan to limit the use of recourse leverage, with a strong preference towards non-recourse property-level debt in order to limit risk to the Aimco enterprise. When warranted, we plan to seek equity capital from joint venture partners to improve its cost of capital, further leverage Aimco equity, reduce exposure to a single investment and, in certain cases, for strategic benefits. We are highly focused on maintaining ample liquidity. As ofJune 30, 2021 , we had access to$445 million , including$286 million of cash on hand,$9 million of restricted cash, and the capacity to borrow up to$150 million on our revolving credit facility. Please refer to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section for additional information regarding our leverage. In evaluating our financial condition and operating performance we use non-GAAP measures, including Adjusted EBITDAre, which we believe is useful to investors and creditors as a supplemental measure of our ability to incur and service debt. Our Adjusted EBITDAre for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2021 was$19.5 million and$36.2 million , respectively. Please refer to the Non-GAAP Measures section for further information about the calculation of Adjusted EBITDAre and our leverage ratios. Please refer to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section for additional information regarding our leverage.
Financing Activity
OnApril 15, 2021 , the Company entered into a$150 million variable-rate non-recourse construction loan collateralized by our leasehold interest and AIR's fee ownership interest inFlamingo North Tower . The initial term of the loan is three years and bears interest at one month LIBOR plus 360 basis points subject to a minimum all-in per annum interest rate of 3.85%. Certain consolidated subsidiaries have indemnified AIR for any losses it incurs as a result of a default on the loan by Aimco. OnJune 21, 2021 , we entered into a$100.7 million variable-rate non-recourse construction loan collateralized by our fee ownership interest in Hamilton on theBay . The initial term of the loan is three years and bears interest at one month LIBOR plus 320 basis points subject to a minimum all-in per annum interest rate of 3.45%. If LIBOR ceases to exist during the term of these agreements, the documents associated with these agreements contain language to address a transition to another bench mark rate. It is anticipated LIBOR will be replaced with SOFR, however, if SOFR were to not be available the agreements contain alternate provisions.

Non-Segment Real Estate Operations
Operating income amounts not attributed to our segments include offsite costs associated with property management, casualty losses, write-off of straight-line rent receivables, and the results of apartment communities sold or held for sale, reported in consolidated amounts, which we do not allocate to our segments for purposes of evaluating segment performance.
Depreciation and Amortization
For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2021 depreciation and amortization expense was higher by$1.6 million and$3.0 million , respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily due to additional assets being placed into service.
General and Administrative Expenses
For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2021 , compared to the same periods in 2020, general and administrative expenses increased by$5.8 million and$10.3 million , respectively, due primarily to the difference of allocating costs in 2020 and the actual costs experienced running the separate business in 2021.
Interest Expense
For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2021 , compared to the same periods in 2020, interest expense increased by$6.8 million , or 117.6%, and$13.9 million , or 120.9%, respectively, due primarily to interest associated with the notes payable to AIR entered into in conjunction with the Separation.
Mezzanine Investment Income, Net
OnNovember 26, 2019 , we made a five-year,$275.0 million mezzanine loan to a partnership owningParkmerced Apartments , located in southwestSan Francisco . The loan is junior to a$1.5 billion first mortgage position and bears interest at a 10% annual rate, accruing if not paid from property operations. As ofJune 30, 2021 , the total receivable including accrued and unpaid interest was$322.4 million . During the three and six months endedJune 30, 2021 , we recognized$7.6 million and$15.0 million , respectively, of income in connection with the mezzanine loan, compared to$6.9 million and$13.7 million during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2020 , respectively.
Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Interest Rate Options
We are required to adjust our interest rate options to fair value on a quarterly basis. As a result of the mark to market adjustment we recorded an unrealized loss in the amount of$17.0 million and an unrealized gain in the amount of$8.4 million during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2021 , respectively, and we recorded an unrealized loss in the amount of$1.1 million during both three and six months endedJune 30, 2020 .
Other Expenses, Net
Other expenses, net, includes costs associated with our risk management activities, partnership administration expenses and certain non-recurring items. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2021 , compared to the same periods in 2020, other expenses, net decreased by$3.1 million and$3.9 million , respectively, due primarily to$2.3 million of revenue for acquisition services fee received during three and six months endedJune 30, 2021 .
Income Tax Benefit
Certain of our operations, including our Development and Redevelopment
activities, are conducted through taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRS entities.
Additionally, our TRS entities hold investments in one of our apartment
communities and
Our income tax benefit calculated in accordance with GAAP includes income taxes associated with the income or loss of our TRS entities. Income taxes, as well as changes in valuation allowance and incremental deferred tax items in conjunction 36

with intercompany asset transfers and internal restructurings (if applicable), are included in income tax benefit in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Consolidated GAAP income or loss subject to tax consists of pretax income or loss of our taxable entities and gains retained by the REIT. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2021 , we had consolidated net losses subject to tax of$9.0 million and$18.5 million , respectively. For the three and six months endedJune 30, 2020 , we had consolidated net income subject to tax of$4.4 million and$8.8 million , respectively.
For the three months ended
For the six months endedJune 30, 2021 , we recognized income tax benefit of$7.9 million , compared to$4.1 million during the same period ended 2020. The change is due primarily to income tax benefit associated with internal restructuring, changes to our effective state rate expected to apply to the reversal of our existing deferred items, and higher losses at our TRS entities.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions. We believe that the critical accounting policies that involve our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements relate to the impairment of long-lived assets and capitalized costs. Our critical accounting policies are described in more detail in Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of Aimco's andAimco Operating Partnership's combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year endedDecember 31, 2020 . There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies from those reported in our Form 10-K and we believe that the related judgments and assessments have been consistently applied and produce financial information that fairly depicts the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented. Non-GAAP Measures We use EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre in managing our business and in evaluating our financial condition and operating performance. These key financial indicators are non-GAAP measures and are defined and described below. We provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable financial measure computed in accordance with GAAP.
Earnings Before Interest Expense, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate (EBITDAre)
EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are non-GAAP measures, which we believe are useful to investors, creditors, and rating agencies as a supplemental measure of our ability to incur and service debt because they are recognized measures of performance by the real estate industry and allow for comparison of our credit strength to different companies. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP as indicators of liquidity. There can be no assurance that our method of calculating EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre is comparable with that of other real estate investment trusts. Nareit defines EBITDAre as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization expense, further adjusted for: • gains and losses on the dispositions of depreciated property; • impairment write-downs of depreciated property;
• impairment write-downs of investments in unconsolidated partnerships caused
by a decrease in the value of the depreciated property in such partnerships;
and • adjustments to reflect Aimco's share of EBITDAre of investments in unconsolidated entities. EBITDAre is defined by Nareit and provides for an additional performance measure independent of capital structure for greater comparability between real estate investment trusts. We define Adjusted EBITDAre as EBITDAre adjusted to exclude the effect of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated real estate partnerships and EBITDAre adjustments attributable to noncontrolling interests, and unrealized gain on interest rate options, which we believe allow investors to compare a measure of our earnings before the effects of our capital structure and indebtedness with that of other companies in the real estate industry. Additionally, we exclude interest income recognized on ourMezzanine Investment that was accrued but not paid during the three and six months endedJune 30, 2021 and 2020. 37

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Liquidity is the ability to meet present and future financial obligations. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity under our loan agreements.
As of
•
•
deposits and escrows held by lenders for capital additions, property taxes,
and insurance; and
•
credit facility.
We have commitments for, and expect to spend, approximately$335.2 million on development and redevelopment projects underway, with$304.8 million undrawn on our construction loans as ofJune 30, 2021 . Our principal uses for liquidity include normal operating activities, payments of principal and interest on outstanding debt, capital expenditures, and future investments. In the event that our cash and cash equivalents, revolving secured credit facility, and cash provided by operating activities are not sufficient to cover our liquidity needs, we have the means to generate additional liquidity, such as from additional property financing activity and proceeds from apartment community sales. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements, including debt maturities, development and redevelopment spending, and future investment activity, primarily through property financing activity, cash generated from operations, and the recycling of Aimco equity. Our revolving secured credit facility matures inDecember 2023 , prior to consideration of its two one-year extension options.
Leverage and Capital Resources
The availability and cost of credit and its related effect on the overall economy may affect our liquidity and future financing activities, both through changes in interest rates and access to financing. Currently, interest rates are low compared to historical levels, and financing is readily available. Any adverse changes in the lending environment could negatively affect our liquidity. We have taken steps to mitigate a portion of our repricing risk. However, if property or development financing 38

options become unavailable, we may consider alternative sources of liquidity, such as reductions in capital spending or apartment community dispositions.
As ofJune 30, 2021 , approximately 40% of our leverage consisted of property-level, non-recourse, amortizing debt. Approximately 87.4% of our property-level debt is fixed-rate, which provides a hedge against increases in interest rates, capitalization rates, and inflation. The weighted-average remaining term to maturity of our non-recourse property-level debt was 5.3 years at a weighted-average interest rate of 3.09%.
While our primary source of leverage is property-level debt, we also have a
credit facility with a syndicate of financial institutions and construction
loans. As of
As of
Under our revolving secured credit facility, we have agreed to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.25x, minimum tangible net worth of$625 million , and maximum leverage of 60% as defined in the credit agreement. We are currently in compliance and expect to remain in compliance with these covenants.
Changes in Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash
The following discussion relates to changes in consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash due to operating, investing and financing activities, which are presented in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows in Item 1 of this report.
Operating Activities
For the six months endedJune 30, 2021 , net cash provided by operating activities was$16.5 million . Our operating cash flow is primarily affected by rental rates, occupancy levels, and operating expenses related to our portfolio of apartment communities and general and administrative costs. Cash provided by operating activities for the six months endedJune 30, 2021 , decreased by$11.9 million compared to the same period ended in 2020.
Investing Activities
For the six months ended
Total capital additions totaled
We exclude the amounts of capital spending related to commercial spaces and to apartment communities sold or classified as held for sale at the end of the period from the foregoing measures. We have also excluded from these measures indirect capitalized costs, which are not yet allocated to communities with capital additions, and their related capital spending categories.
For further details regarding our development and redevelopment activities, including apartment communities constructed and delivered refer to the Executive Overview section above.
Financing Activities Net cash from financing activities for the six months endedJune 30, 2021 increased by$99.9 million compared to the six months endedJune 30, 2020 , due primarily to proceeds from the$150 million and$100.7 million variable-rate non-recourse construction loans entered into during the six months endedJune 30, 2021 . Future Capital Needs We expect to fund any future acquisitions, redevelopment, development, and other capital spending principally with operating cash flows, short-term borrowings, and debt and equity financing. Our near-term business plan does not contemplate the issuance of equity. We believe, based on the information available at this time, that we have sufficient cash on hand and access to additional sources of liquidity to meet our operational needs for 2021 and beyond. 39
