CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
With the exception of historical information, certain statements contained or incorporated by reference herein may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), such as those pertaining to our acquisition or disposition of properties, our capital resources, future expenditures for development projects, and our results of operations and financial condition. Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties and you should not rely on them as predictions of actual events. There is no assurance the events or circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will occur. You can identify forward-looking statements by use of words such as “will be,” “intend,” “continue,” “believe,” “may,” “expect,” “hope,” “anticipate,” “goal,” “forecast,” “pipeline,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “offers,” “plans” “would,” or other similar expressions or other comparable terms or discussions of strategy, plans or intentions in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, references to our budgeted amounts and guidance are forward-looking statements.

Factors that could materially and adversely affect us include, but are not limited to, the factors listed below:
General international, national, regional and local business and economic conditions;
Volatility in the financial markets;
Adverse changes in our credit ratings;
The downgrade of the U.S. Government's credit rating and any future downgrade of the U.S. Government's credit rating;
Fluctuations in interest rates;
The duration or outcome of litigation relating to our significant investment in a planned casino and resort development which may cause the development to be indefinitely delayed or cancelled;
The success of our significant investment in a planned casino and resort development depends to a large extent upon the proposed casino tenant, Empire Resorts, Inc., being selected to receive one of a limited number of class III gaming licenses from the New York Gaming Facility Location Board;
Defaults in the performance of lease terms by our tenants;
Defaults by our customers and counterparties on their obligations owed to us;
A borrower's bankruptcy or default;
The obsolescence of older multiplex theatres owned by some of our tenants or by any overbuilding of megaplex theatres in their markets;
Our ability to renew maturing leases with theatre tenants on terms comparable to prior leases and/or our ability to lease any re-claimed space from some of our larger theatres at economically favorable terms;
Risks of operating in the entertainment industry;
Our ability to compete effectively;
A single tenant represents a substantial portion of our lease revenues;
A single tenant leases or is the mortgagor of a substantial portion of our investments related to metropolitan ski areas and a single tenant leases a significant number of our public charter school properties;
The ability of our public charter school tenants to comply with their charters and continue to receive funding from local, state and federal governments, the approval by applicable governing authorities of substitute operators to assume control of any failed public charter schools and our ability to negotiate the terms of new leases with such substitute tenants on acceptable terms, and our ability to complete collateral substitutions as applicable;
Risks associated with use of leverage to acquire properties;
Financing arrangements that require lump-sum payments;
Our ability to raise capital;
Covenants in our debt instruments that limit our ability to take certain actions;
The concentration and lack of diversification of our investment portfolio;
Our continued qualification as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
The ability of our subsidiaries to satisfy their obligations;
Financing arrangements that expose us to funding or purchase risks;
Risks associated with security breaches and other disruptions;
We have a limited number of employees and the loss of personnel could harm operations;

i


Fluctuations in the value of real estate income and investments;
Risks relating to real estate ownership, leasing and development, including local conditions such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for real estate in the area, competition from other available space, whether tenants and users such as customers of our tenants consider a property attractive, changes in real estate taxes and other expenses, changes in market rental rates, the timing and costs associated with property improvements and rentals, changes in taxation or zoning laws or other governmental regulation, whether we are able to pass some or all of any increased operating costs through to tenants, and how well we manage our properties;
Our ability to secure adequate insurance and risk of potential uninsured losses, including from natural disasters;
Risks involved in joint ventures;
Risks in leasing multi-tenant properties;
A failure to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act or other laws;
Risks of environmental liability;
Our real estate investments are relatively illiquid;
Risks with owning assets in foreign countries;
Risks associated with owning, operating or financing properties for which the tenants', mortgagors' or our operations may be impacted by weather conditions and climate change;
Risks associated with the development, redevelopment and expansion of properties and the acquisition of other real estate related companies.
Our ability to pay dividends in cash or at current rates;
Fluctuations in the market prices for our shares;
Certain limits on changes in control imposed under law and by our Declaration of Trust and Bylaws;
Policy changes obtained without the approval of our shareholders;
Equity issuances could dilute the value of our shares;
Future offerings of debt or equity securities, which may rank senior to our common shares;
Risks associated with changes in the Canadian exchange rate; and
Changes in laws and regulations, including tax laws and regulations.

Our forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations and beliefs and are subject to numerous
assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Many of the factors that will determine these items are beyond our ability to control or predict. For further discussion of these factors see Item 1A - "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 28, 2014, as supplemented by Part II, Item 1A - "Risk Factors" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

For these statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or the date of any document incorporated by reference herein. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

EPR PROPERTIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


1. Organization

Description of Business
EPR Properties (the Company) is a specialty real estate investment trust (REIT) organized on August 29, 1997 in Maryland. The Company develops, owns, leases and finances properties in select market segments primarily related to entertainment, education and recreation. The Company’s properties are located in the United States and Canada.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. In addition, operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014.

The Company consolidates certain entities when it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary in a variable interest entity (VIE), as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic on Consolidation. The Topic on Consolidation requires the consolidation of VIEs in which an enterprise has a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest will have both of the following characteristics: the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. This topic requires an ongoing reassessment.  The equity method of accounting is applied to entities in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary as defined in the Consolidation Topic of the FASB ASC, or does not have effective control, but can exercise influence over the entity with respect to its operations and major decisions.

The Company reports its noncontrolling interests as required by the Consolidation Topic of the FASB ASC. Noncontrolling interest is the portion of equity (net assets) in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent. The ownership interests in the subsidiary that are held by owners other than the parent are noncontrolling interests. Such noncontrolling interests are reported on the consolidated balance sheets within equity, separately from the Company's equity. On the consolidated statements of income, revenues, expenses and net income or loss from less-than-wholly-owned subsidiaries are reported at the consolidated amounts, including both the amounts attributable to the Company and noncontrolling interests. Consolidated statements of changes in shareholders' equity are included for both quarterly and annual financial statements, including beginning balances, activity for the period and ending balances for equity, noncontrolling interests and total equity. The Company does not have any redeemable noncontrolling interests.

The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 28, 2014.

Operating Segments
For financial reporting purposes, the Company groups its investments into four reportable operating segments: Entertainment, Education, Recreation and Other. See Note 15 for financial information related to these operating segments.

7



Rental Properties
Rental properties are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Costs incurred for the acquisition and development of the properties are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which generally are estimated to be 40 years for buildings and 3 to 25 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment. Tenant improvements, including allowances, are depreciated over the shorter of the base term of the lease or the estimated useful life. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to operations in the period incurred. Significant renovations and improvements that improve or extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful life.

Management reviews a property for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable. The review of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. If impairment exists due to the inability to recover the carrying value of the property, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value of the property exceeds its estimated fair value.

The Company evaluates the held-for-sale classification of its real estate as of the end of each quarter. Assets that are classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Assets are generally classified as held for sale once management has initiated an active program to market them for sale and has received a firm purchase commitment that is expected to close within one year. The results of operations of these real estate properties are reflected as discontinued operations in all periods reported. On occasion, the Company will receive unsolicited offers from third parties to buy individual Company properties. Under these circumstances, the Company will classify the properties as held for sale when a sales contract is executed with no contingencies and the prospective buyer has funds at risk to ensure performance.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company makes estimates of the collectability of its accounts receivable related to base rents, tenant escalations (straight-line rents), reimbursements and other revenue or income. The Company specifically analyzes trends in accounts receivable, historical bad debts, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts. When evaluating customer creditworthiness, management reviews the periodic financial statements for significant tenants and specifically evaluates the strength and material changes in net operating income, coverage ratios, leverage and other factors to assess the tenant's credit quality. In addition, when customers are in bankruptcy, the Company makes estimates of the expected recovery of pre-petition administrative and damage claims. These estimates have a direct impact on the Company's net income.

Revenue Recognition
Rents that are fixed and determinable are recognized on a straight-line basis over the minimum terms of the leases. Base rent escalation on leases that are dependent upon increases in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) is recognized when known. In addition, most of the Company's tenants are subject to additional rents if gross revenues of the properties exceed certain thresholds defined in the lease agreements (percentage rents). Percentage rents as well as participating interest for those mortgage agreements that contain similar such clauses are recognized at the time when specific triggering events occur as provided by the lease or mortgage agreements. Rental revenue included percentage rents of $0.5 million and $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Lease termination fees are recognized when the related leases are canceled and the Company has no obligation to provide services to such former tenants. Termination fees of $123 thousand and $8 thousand were recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Direct financing lease income is recognized on the effective interest method to produce a level yield on funds not yet recovered. Estimated unguaranteed residual values at the date of lease inception represent management's initial estimates of fair value of the leased assets at the expiration of the lease, not to exceed original cost. Significant assumptions used in estimating residual values include estimated net cash flows over the remaining lease term and expected future real estate values. The Company evaluates on an annual basis (or more frequently, if necessary) the collectability of its direct financing lease receivable and unguaranteed residual value to determine whether they are impaired. A direct

8


financing lease receivable is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. When a direct financing lease receivable is considered to be impaired, the amount of loss is calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the direct financing lease receivable's effective interest rate or to the fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, if such receivable is collateralized.

Mortgage Notes and Other Notes Receivable
Mortgage notes and other notes receivable, including related accrued interest receivable, consist of loans originated by the Company and the related accrued and unpaid interest income as of the balance sheet date. Mortgage notes and other notes receivable are initially recorded at the amount advanced to the borrower and the Company defers certain loan origination and commitment fees, net of certain origination costs, and amortizes them over the term of the related loan. Interest income on performing loans is accrued as earned. The Company evaluates the collectability of both interest and principal of each of its loans to determine whether it is impaired. A loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, the Company determines that it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. An insignificant delay or shortfall in amounts of payments does not necessarily result in the loan being identified as impaired. When a loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of loss, if any, is calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the loan’s effective interest rate or to the fair value of the Company’s interest in the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, if the loan is collateral dependent. For impaired loans, interest income is recognized on a cash basis, unless the Company determines based on the loan to estimated fair value ratio the loan should be on the cost recovery method, and any cash payments received would then be reflected as a reduction of principal. Interest income recognition is recommenced if and when the impaired loan becomes contractually current and performance is demonstrated to be resumed.

Concentrations of Risk
American Multi-Cinema, Inc. (AMC) was the lessee of a substantial portion (26%) of the megaplex theatre rental properties held by the Company at June 30, 2014 as a result of a series of sale leaseback transactions pertaining to AMC megaplex theatres. A substantial portion of the Company’s total revenues (approximately $43.6 million or 24% and $42.7 million or 26%, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively) result from the revenue from AMC under the leases, or from its parent, AMC Entertainment, Inc. (AMCE), as the guarantor of AMC’s obligations under the leases. AMCE is wholly owned by AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (AMCEH). AMCEH is a publicly held company (NYSE: AMC) and its consolidated financial information is publicly available as www.sec.gov.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, approximately $20.1 million or 11%, and $21.2 million or 13%, respectively, of total revenue was derived from the Company's four entertainment retail centers in Ontario, Canada. The Company's wholly owned subsidiaries that hold the four Canadian entertainment retail centers represent approximately $227.5 million or 13% and $227.2 million or 13% of the Company's net assets at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Share-Based Compensation
Share-based compensation to employees of the Company is granted pursuant to the Company's Annual Incentive Program and Long-Term Incentive Plan. Share-based compensation to non-employee Trustees of the Company is granted pursuant to the Company's Trustee compensation program and shares to employees and non-employee Trustees are issued under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan.

Share-based compensation expense consists of share option expense, amortization of nonvested share grants, and amortization of share units issued to non-employee Trustees for payment of their annual retainers. Share-based compensation is included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of income, and totaled $4.7 million and $3.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Share Options
Share options are granted to employees pursuant to the Long-Term Incentive Plan. The fair value of share options granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Share options granted to employees vest over a period of four years and share option expense for these options is recognized on a straight-line

9


basis over the vesting period. Total expense recognized related to share options was $729 thousand and $438 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Nonvested Shares Issued to Employees
The Company grants nonvested shares to employees pursuant to both the Annual Incentive Program and the Long-Term Incentive Plan. The Company amortizes the expense related to the nonvested shares awarded to employees under the Long-Term Incentive Plan and the premium awarded under the nonvested share alternative of the Annual Incentive Program on a straight-line basis over the future vesting period (three or four years). Total expense recognized related to all nonvested shares was $3.4 million and $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Restricted Share Units Issued to Non-Employee Trustees
The Company issues restricted share units to non-employee Trustees for payment of their annual retainers. The fair value of the share units granted was based on the share price at the date of grant. The share units vest upon the earlier of the day preceding the next annual meeting of shareholders or a change of control. The settlement date for the shares is selected by the non-employee Trustee, and ranges from one year from the grant date to upon termination of service. This expense is amortized by the Company on a straight-line basis over the year of service by the non-employee Trustees. Total expense recognized related to shares issued to non-employee Trustees was $534 thousand and $321 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Derivative Instruments
The Company has acquired certain derivative instruments to reduce exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and variable interest rates. The Company has established policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities. These derivatives consist of foreign currency forward contracts, cross-currency swaps and interest rate swaps.

The Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Derivatives may also be designated as hedges of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting.

The Company has made an accounting policy election to measure the credit risk of its derivative financial instruments that are subject to master netting agreements on a net basis by counterparty portfolio.

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation for asset groups that qualify for presentation as discontinued operations.

4. Investments

The Company's investment spending during the six months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $319.7 million, and included investments in each of its four operating segments.

Entertainment investment spending during the six months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $143.7 million, and was related primarily to the acquisition of 11 theatres as described below, as well as investments in build-to-suit construction of six megaplex theatres and redevelopment of three existing megaplex theatres, each of which is subject to a long-term triple net lease or long-term mortgage agreement.

On April 21, 2014, the Company acquired 100% of an entity that owns 11 theatre properties in seven states for a total purchase price of approximately $117.7 million. As a part of this transaction, the Company assumed a mortgage loan of $90.3 million, which was booked at fair value on the date of the acquisition and a note payable of $1.9 million, for which the carrying value approximated market value on the date of acquisition. See Note 7 for further details regarding these loans. The theatre properties are leased on a triple net basis under a master lease agreement to a subsidiary of Regal Cinemas, Inc. with the tenant responsible for all taxes, costs and expenses arising from the use or operation of the properties. The remaining initial lease term is approximately 13 years. On the acquisition date, the Company recorded the following in the consolidated balance sheet: $123.7 million to rental properties, $3.3 million to other assets (for in-place leases) and $101.5 million to debt. Proforma financial information for this acquisition has been omitted as the effects of the acquisition are not material to the consolidated financial statements. Acquisition related costs in connection with this acquisition of $0.5 million were expensed as incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Education investment spending during the six months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $101.9 million, and was related to investments in build-to-suit construction of 19 public charter schools, three private schools and six early childhood education centers, as well as the acquisition of two early childhood education centers located in Arizona, each of which is subject to a long-term triple net lease or long-term mortgage agreement.
 
Recreation investment spending during the six months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $72.0 million, and was related to build-to-suit construction of 12 TopGolf golf entertainment facilities and additional improvements at two existing Top Golf golf entertainment facilities and Camelback Mountain Resort, each of which is subject to a long-term triple net lease or a long-term mortgage agreement.

Other investment spending during the six months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $2.1 million, and was related to the land held for development in Sullivan County, New York.

On April 2, 2014, the Company completed the sale of four public charter school properties located in Florida and previously leased to Imagine for net proceeds of $46.1 million. Accordingly, the Company reduced its investment in

12


a direct financing lease, net, by $45.9 million which included $41.5 million in original acquisition cost. A gain of $0.2 million was recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2014.

7. Debt and Capital Markets

On March 26, 2014, the Company increased the size of its unsecured revolving credit facility from $475.0 million to $535.0 million. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had $79.0 million outstanding under the facility and the total availability under the revolving credit facility was $456.0 million.

Additionally on March 26, 2014, the Company increased the size of its unsecured term loan facility from $265.0 million to $275.0 million.

On April 21, 2014, the Company assumed a mortgage note payable of $90.3 million and a note payable of $1.9 million in conjunction with the acquisition of 11 theatre properties. The mortgage note matures on July 6, 2017 and requires monthly principal and interest payments of approximately $635 thousand with a final principal payment at maturity of approximately $85.1 million. The mortgage note was recorded at fair value upon acquisition which was estimated to be $99.6 million. The fair value of this mortgage note was determined by discounting the future cash flows of the mortgage note using an estimated current market rate of 4.00%. The note payable matures on April 21, 2016, bears interest at 2.50% and requires quarterly interest payments of approximately $12 thousand with principal payment due at maturity. The carrying value of the note approximated fair value on the date of acquisition. Based on these inputs, the Company determined that its valuation of these notes was classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. See Note 10 for definition of Level 2 inputs.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company issued pursuant to a registered public offering 1,563,709 common shares under the direct share purchase component of the Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Share Purchase Plan for total net proceeds after expenses of $79.5 million.

8. Variable Interest Entities

The Company’s variable interest in VIEs currently are in the form of equity ownership and loans provided by the Company to a VIE or other partner. The Company examines specific criteria and uses its judgment when determining if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE and therefore required to consolidate the investments. Factors considered in determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary include risk and reward sharing, experience and financial condition of other partner(s), voting rights, involvement in day-to-day capital and operating decisions, representation on a VIE’s executive committee, existence of unilateral kick-out rights or voting rights, and level of economic disproportionality between the Company and the other partner(s).

Consolidated VIEs
As of June 30, 2014, the Company did not have any investments in consolidated VIEs.

Unconsolidated VIE
At June 30, 2014, the Company’s recorded investment in SVVI, a VIE that is unconsolidated, was $183.5 million. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss associated with SVVI is limited to the Company’s outstanding mortgage note and related accrued interest receivable of $183.5 million. While this entity is a VIE, the Company has determined that the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance is not held by the Company.

9. Derivative Instruments

All derivatives are recognized at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets within the line items "Other assets" and "Accounts payable and accrued liabilities" as applicable. The Company's derivatives are subject to a master netting arrangement and the Company has elected not to offset its derivative position for purposes of balance sheet presentation and disclosure. The Company had derivative liabilities of $9.6 million and $4.5 million recorded in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” and derivative assets of $3.2 million and $6.1 million recorded in “Other assets” in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Had the Company elected to offset derivatives in the consolidated balance sheet pursuant to ASU 210-20-45, the Company would have had derivative assets of $3.2 million and $6.1 million that would have been offset against the respective derivative liabilities of $9.6 million and $4.5 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, resulting in a net derivative liability of $6.4 million (with no derivative asset) at June 30, 2014, and a net derivative asset of $1.6 million (with no derivative liability) at December 31, 2013.  The Company had not posted or received collateral with its derivative counterparties as of June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013. See Note 10 for disclosures relating to the fair value of the derivative instruments as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company is exposed to the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates on its LIBOR based borrowings. The Company limits this risk by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives. The Company’s objective in using derivatives is to add stability to reported earnings and to manage its exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate movements or other identified risks. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps, cross-currency swaps and foreign currency forwards.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements on its LIBOR based borrowings. To accomplish this objective, the Company currently uses interest rate swaps as its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
 
On January 5, 2012, the Company entered into three interest rate swap agreements to fix the interest rate on a $240.0 million unsecured term loan facility that closed on the same day. These agreements have a combined outstanding notional amount of $240.0 million, a termination date of January 5, 2016 and provide for a fixed rate on this debt of 2.51%. On September 6, 2013, the Company entered into three interest rate swap agreements to further fix the interest rate on $240.0 million of the unsecured term loan facility at 2.38% from January 5, 2016 to July 5, 2017. 

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of interest rate derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. No hedge ineffectiveness on cash flow hedges was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. As of June 30, 2014, the Company estimates that during the twelve months ending June 30, 2015, $1.8 million will be reclassified from AOCI to interest expense.

Cash Flow Hedges of Foreign Exchange Risk
The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk against its functional currency, the U.S. dollar, on its four Canadian properties. The Company uses cross currency swaps and foreign currency forwards to mitigate its exposure to fluctuations in the CAD to U.S. dollar exchange rate on its Canadian properties. These foreign currency derivatives should hedge a significant portion of the Company's expected CAD denominated cash flow of the Canadian properties as their impact on the Company's cash flow when settled should move in the opposite direction of the exchange rates used to translate revenues and expenses of these properties.

14



As of June 30, 2014, the Company had cross-currency swaps with a fixed original notional value of $100.0 million CAD and $98.1 million U.S. The net effect of these swaps is to lock in an exchange rate of $1.05 CAD per U.S. dollar on approximately $13.5 million of annual CAD denominated cash flows on the properties through June 2018.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of foreign currency derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk is recorded in AOCI and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative, as well as amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness, is recognized directly in earnings. No hedge ineffectiveness on foreign currency derivatives was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. As of June 30, 2014, the Company estimates that during the twelve months ending June 30, 2015, $0.3 million will be reclassified from AOCI to other income.

Net Investment Hedges
As discussed above, the Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on its four Canadian properties. As such, the Company uses currency forward agreements to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates. Currency forward agreements involve fixing the CAD to U.S. dollar exchange rate for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date. The currency forward agreements are typically cash settled in U.S. dollars for their fair value at or close to their settlement date. In order to hedge the net investment in four of the Canadian properties, the Company entered into a forward contract with a fixed notional value of $100.0 million CAD and $94.3 million U.S. with a July 2018 settlement. The exchange rate of this forward contract is approximately $1.06 CAD per U.S. dollar. Additionally, on February 28, 2014, the Company entered into a forward contract with a fixed notional value of $100.0 million CAD and $88.1 million U.S. with a July 2018 settlement date. The exchange rate of this forward contract is approximately $1.13 CAD per U.S. dollar. These forward contracts should hedge a significant portion of the Company’s CAD denominated net investment in these four centers through July 2018 as the impact on AOCI from marking the derivative to market should move in the opposite direction of the translation adjustment on the net assets of these four Canadian properties.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company received $5.7 million of cash in connection with the settlement of a CAD to U.S. dollar currency forward agreement which was designated as a net investment hedge.  The cash receipt has been reported as part of investing activity in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows.  The corresponding change in value of the forward contract for the period from inception to the settlement date of $5.7 million is reported in AOCI as part of the cumulative translation adjustment.  The $5.7 million gain will remain in AOCI and will be reclassified into earnings upon a sale or complete or substantially complete liquidation of the Company’s investment in its four Canadian properties.

For foreign currency derivatives designated as net investment hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivatives are reported in AOCI as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. No hedge ineffectiveness on net investment hedges was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. Amounts are reclassified out of AOCI into earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
The Company has agreements with each of its interest rate derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company defaults on any of its obligations for borrowed money or credit in an amount exceeding $25.0 million and such default is not waived or cured within a specified period of time, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default on its interest rate derivative obligations.

As of June 30, 2014, the fair value of the Company’s derivatives in a liability position related to these agreements was $9.6 million. If the Company breached any of the contractual provisions of these derivative contracts, it would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $9.9 million.

10. Fair Value Disclosures

The Company has certain financial instruments that are required to be measured under the FASB’s Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures guidance. The Company currently does not have any non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the FASB’s Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy). Level 1 inputs use quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Level 2 inputs

16


are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company uses interest rate swaps, foreign currency forwards and cross-currency swaps to manage its interest rate and foreign currency risk. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, foreign exchange rates, and implied volatilities. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts and the discounted expected variable cash payments. The variable cash payments are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees. In conjunction with the FASB's fair value measurement guidance, the Company made an accounting policy election to measure the credit risk of its derivative financial instruments that are subject to master netting agreements on a net basis by counterparty portfolio.

Although the Company determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives also use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. As of June 30, 2014, the Company assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives and therefore, classified its derivatives as Level 2 within the fair value reporting hierarchy.

The table below presents the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements are classified and by derivative type.

Non-recurring fair value measurements
Other than the purchase price allocation for the business combination described in Note 4, there were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Management compares the carrying value to the estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Mortgage notes receivable and related accrued interest receivable:
The fair value of the Company’s mortgage notes and related accrued interest receivable is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument using current market rates. At June 30, 2014, the Company had a carrying value of $508.7 million in fixed rate mortgage notes receivable outstanding, including related accrued interest, with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 9.12%. The fixed rate mortgage notes bear interest at rates of 5.50% to 11.31%. Discounting the future cash flows for fixed rate mortgage notes receivable using rates of 9.00% to 11.31%, management estimates the fair value of the fixed rate mortgage notes receivable to be approximately $488.6 million with an estimated weighted average market rate of 10.15% at June 30, 2014.

At December 31, 2013, the Company had a carrying value of $486.3 million in fixed rate mortgage notes receivable outstanding, including related accrued interest, with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 9.05%. The fixed rate mortgage notes bear interest at rates of 5.50% to 11.31%. Discounting the future cash flows for fixed rate mortgage notes receivable using rates of 9.00% to 11.31%, management estimates the fair value of the fixed rate mortgage notes receivable to be $465.2 million with an estimated weighted average market rate of 10.12% at December 31, 2013.

Investment in a direct financing lease, net:
The fair value of the Company’s investment in a direct financing lease is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of the instrument using current market rates. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had an investment in a direct financing lease with a carrying value of $198.0 million and $242.2 million, respectively, and a weighted average effective interest rate of 12.00% and 12.01%, respectively. The investment in direct financing lease bears interest at effective interest rates of 11.74% to 12.38%. The carrying value of the investment in a direct financing lease approximated the fair market value at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Derivative instruments:
Derivative instruments are carried at their fair market value.

Debt instruments:
The fair value of the Company's debt is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument using current market rates. At June 30, 2014, the Company had a carrying value of $379.0 million in variable rate debt outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 1.60%. The carrying value of the variable rate debt outstanding approximated the fair market value at June 30, 2014.

At December 31, 2013, the Company had a carrying value of $290.0 million in variable rate debt outstanding with an average weighted interest rate of approximately 1.62%. The carrying value of the variable rate debt outstanding approximated the fair market value at December 31, 2013.

At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $240.0 million of variable rate debt outstanding under the Company's unsecured term loan facility had been effectively converted to a fixed rate through July 5, 2017 by interest rate swap agreements.

At June 30, 2014, the Company had a carrying value of $1.28 billion in fixed rate long-term debt outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.94%. Discounting the future cash flows for fixed rate debt using rates of 1.99% to 4.63%, management estimates the fair value of the fixed rate debt to be approximately $1.40 billion with an estimated weighted average market rate of 3.85% at June 30, 2014.

18


At December 31, 2013, the Company had a carrying value of $1.19 billion in fixed rate long-term debt outstanding with an average weighted interest rate of approximately 6.10%. Discounting the future cash flows for fixed rate debt using rates of 2.63% to 5.56%, management estimates the fair value of the fixed rate debt to be approximately $1.24 billion with an estimated weighted average market rate of 4.85% at December 31, 2013.

The additional 1.9 million common shares that would result from the conversion of the Company’s 5.75% Series C cumulative convertible preferred shares and the additional 1.6 million common shares that would result from the conversion of the Company’s 9.0% Series E cumulative convertible preferred shares and the corresponding add-back of the preferred dividends declared on those shares are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 because the effect is anti-dilutive.

The dilutive effect of potential common shares from the exercise of share options is included in diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, options to purchase 33 thousand and 238 thousand shares of common shares, respectively, at per share prices ranging from $45.20 to $65.50 for both periods, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options were anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, options to purchase 44 thousand and 331 thousand shares of common shares, respectively, at per share prices ranging from $45.20 to $65.50 for both periods, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options were anti-dilutive.

12. Equity Incentive Plan

All grants of common shares and options to purchase common shares are issued under the Company's 2007 Equity Incentive Plan and an aggregate of 3,650,000 common shares, options to purchase common shares and restricted share units, subject to adjustment in the event of certain capital events, may be granted. At June 30, 2014, there were 1,308,186 shares available for grant under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan.

Share Options
Share options granted under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan have exercise prices equal to the fair market value of a common share at the date of grant. The options may be granted for any reasonable term, not to exceed 10 years, and

20


for employees typically become exercisable at a rate of 25% per year over a four-year period. For non-employee Trustees, share options are vested upon issuance, however, the share options may not be exercised for a one year period subsequent to the grant date. The Company generally issues new common shares upon option exercise. A summary of the Company’s share option activity and related information is as follows:

The weighted average fair value of options granted was $13.87 and $12.35 during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $0.3 million and $2.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Additionally, the Company repurchased 19,128 shares into treasury shares in conjunction with the stock options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2014 with a total value of $1.0 million. At June 30, 2014, stock-option expense to be recognized in future periods was $3.4 million.

The expense related to share options included in the determination of net income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $729 thousand and $438 thousand, respectively. The following assumptions were used in applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model at the grant dates: risk-free interest rate of 2.2% and 1.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, dividend yield of 6.4% and 6.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, volatility factors in the expected market price of the Company’s common shares of 50.3% and 50.7%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, 0.28% and 0.23% expected forfeiture rate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and an expected life of approximately six years for both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The Company uses historical data to estimate the expected life of the option and the risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Additionally, expected volatility is computed based on the average historical volatility of the Company’s publicly traded shares.

14. Other Commitments and Contingencies

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had 11 entertainment development projects for which it has commitments to fund approximately $57.4 million, 22 education development projects for which it has commitments to fund approximately $172.4 million and seven recreation development projects for which it has commitments to fund approximately $89.2 million. Development costs are advanced by the Company in periodic draws. If the Company determines that construction is not being completed in accordance with the terms of the development agreement, it can discontinue funding construction draws. The Company has agreed to lease the properties to the operators at pre-determined rates upon completion of construction.

The Company has certain commitments related to its mortgage note investments that it may be required to fund in the future. The Company is generally obligated to fund these commitments at the request of the borrower or upon the occurrence of events outside of its direct control. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had 11 mortgage notes receivable with commitments totaling approximately $217.0 million. If commitments are funded in the future, interest will be charged at rates consistent with the existing investments.

The Company has provided guarantees of the payment of certain economic development revenue bonds totaling $20.4 million related to two theatres in Louisiana for which the Company earns a fee at annual rates of 2.88% to 4.00% over the 30-year terms of the related bonds. The Company recorded $8.6 million as a deferred asset included in other assets and $8.6 million included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2014 related to these guarantees. No amounts have been accrued as a loss contingency related to these guarantees because payment by the Company is not probable.

On June 7, 2011, affiliates of Louis Cappelli, Concord Associates, L.P., Concord Resort, LLC and Concord Kiamesha LLC (the Cappelli Group), filed a complaint with the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Sullivan, against two subsidiaries of the Company seeking (i) a declaratory judgment the Company's obligations under a previously disclosed settlement agreement involving these entities, (ii) an order that the Company execute the golf course lease and the “Racino Parcel” lease subject to the settlement agreement, and (iii) an extension of the restrictive covenant against ownership or operation of a casino on the Concord resort property under the settlement agreement (the Restrictive Covenant), which covenant was set to expire on December 31, 2011. The Company filed counterclaims seeking related

23


relief. The Cappelli Group subsequently obtained leave to discontinue its claims, but the counterclaims remained pending. On June 30, 2014, the Court (i) denied the Cappelli Group's motion to dismiss the counterclaims, (ii) granted the Company's motion for summary judgment finding that the Cappelli Group missed the December 31, 2011 deadline to fully execute a master credit agreement which was a condition to the Company's obligation to continue its joint development activities with the Cappelli Group under the settlement agreement, (iii) granted the Company's motion for summary judgment finding that the Restrictive Covenant had expired, and (iv) granted the Company's motion for declaratory relief declaring the Company as master developer of the Concord resort property. Subject to the Cappelli Group's right to appeal these decisions, we believe these orders resolve all remaining issues in the Sullivan County, New York case.

Since our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 filed with the SEC on April 30, 2014, there have been no material developments involving the action filed by the Cappelli Group in Westchester County, New York or the appeal of the action filed by Mr. Cappelli and Concord Associates, L.P. in the United Stated District Court for the Southern District of New York.

The Company has not determined that losses related to these matters are probable. Because of the favorable rulings from the United States District Court and the Supreme Court of Sullivan County, New York, and the pending or potential appeals, together with the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation generally, the Company does not have sufficient information to determine the amount or range of reasonably possible loss with respect to these matters. The Company's assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but that may prove to be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that might cause the Company to change those estimates and assumptions. The Company intends to vigorously defend the claims asserted against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries by the Cappelli Group and its affiliates, for which the Company believes it has meritorious defenses, but there can be no assurances as to its outcome.
