EXPLANATORY NOTE

We refer to Highwoods Properties, Inc. as the “Company,” Highwoods Realty Limited Partnership as the “Operating Partnership,” the Company’s common stock as “Common Stock” or “Common Shares,” the Company’s preferred stock as “Preferred Stock” or “Preferred Shares,” the Operating Partnership’s common partnership interests as “Common Units,” the Operating Partnership’s preferred partnership interests as “Preferred Units” and in-service properties (excluding for-sale residential condominiums) to which the Company and/or the Operating Partnership have title and 100.0% ownership rights as the “Wholly Owned Properties.” References to “we” and “our” mean the Company and the Operating Partnership, collectively, unless the context indicates otherwise.

The Company conducts virtually all of its activities through the Operating Partnership and is its sole general partner. The partnership agreement provides that the Operating Partnership will assume and pay when due, or reimburse the Company for payment of, all costs and expenses relating to the ownership and operations of, or for the benefit of, the Operating Partnership. The partnership agreement further provides that all expenses of the Company are deemed to be incurred for the benefit of the Operating Partnership.

Certain information contained herein is presented as of July 18, 2013, the latest practicable date for financial information prior to the filing of this Quarterly Report.

This report combines the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2013 of the Company and the Operating Partnership. We believe combining the quarterly reports into this single report results in the following benefits:

combined reports better reflect how management and investors view the business as a single operating unit;

combined reports enhance investors' understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business as a whole and in the same manner as management;

combined reports are more efficient for the Company and the Operating Partnership and result in savings in time, effort and expense; and

combined reports are more efficient for investors by reducing duplicative disclosure and providing a single document for their review.

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

Consolidated Financial Statements;

the following Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements:

Note 4 - Investments in and Advances to Affiliates;

Note 8 - Noncontrolling Interests; and

Note 13 - Earnings Per Share and Per Unit;

Item 4 - Controls and Procedures; and

Item 6 - Certifications of CEO and CFO Pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

1.    Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Highwoods Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) is a fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed equity real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that provides leasing, management, development, construction and other customer-related services for its properties and for third parties. The Company conducts virtually all of its activities through Highwoods Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). At June 30, 2013, the Company and/or the Operating Partnership wholly owned: 291 in-service office, industrial and retail properties, comprising 29.6 million square feet; 634 acres of undeveloped land suitable for future development, of which 566 acres are considered core assets; and two office development properties. In addition, we owned interests (50.0% or less) in 30 in-service office properties, a rental residential development property and 11 acres of undeveloped land suitable for future development, which includes a 12.5% interest in a 261,000 square foot office property directly owned by the Company (not included in the Operating Partnership’s Consolidated Financial Statements).

The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. At June 30, 2013, the Company owned all of the Preferred Units and 83.6 million, or 95.8%, of the Common Units in the Operating Partnership. Limited partners, including two directors of the Company, own the remaining 3.7 million Common Units. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company redeemed 72,471 Common Units for a like number of shares of Common Stock. As a result of this activity, the percentage of Common Units owned by the Company increased from 95.6% at December 31, 2012 to 95.8% at June 30, 2013.

Common Stock Offerings
 
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company issued 1,756,590 and 3,056,381 shares of Common Stock, respectively, under its equity sales agreements at an average gross sales price of $38.32 and $37.31 per share, respectively, and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $66.3 million and $112.3 million, respectively.

Basis of Presentation

Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Our Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2012 were retrospectively revised from previously reported amounts to reflect in real estate and other assets, net, held for sale those properties classified as held for sale during the three months ended June 30, 2013. Our Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were retrospectively revised from previously reported amounts to reflect in discontinued operations the operations for those properties classified as discontinued operations.

The Company's Consolidated Financial Statements include the Operating Partnership, wholly owned subsidiaries and those entities in which the Company has the controlling interest. The Operating Partnership's Consolidated Financial Statements include wholly owned subsidiaries and those entities in which the Operating Partnership has the controlling interest. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had involvement with, but are not the primary beneficiary in, an entity that we concluded to be a variable interest entity (see Note 3).

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying unaudited consolidated financial information, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. We have omitted certain notes and other information from the interim Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this Quarterly Report as permitted by SEC rules and regulations. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

1.    Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies – Continued

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2.    Real Estate Assets
 
Acquisitions
 
During the second quarter of 2013, we acquired an office property in Atlanta, GA encompassing 553,000 square feet for a purchase price of $140.1 million.

During the first quarter of 2013, we acquired:

two office properties in Tampa, FL encompassing 372,000 square feet for a purchase price of $52.5 million,

two office properties in Greensboro, NC encompassing 195,000 square feet for a purchase price of $30.8 million, and

five acres of development land in Memphis, TN for a purchase price of $4.8 million.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we expensed $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively, of acquisition costs (included in general and administrative expenses) related to these acquisitions. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at fair value as determined by management based on information available at the acquisition date and on current assumptions as to future operations.

Dispositions

During the second quarter of 2013, we sold:

five industrial properties in Atlanta, GA for a sale price of $4.5 million (after $0.1 million in closing credits to buyer for free rent) and recorded a gain on disposition of discontinued operations of less than $0.1 million;

six industrial properties and a land parcel in a single transaction in Atlanta, GA for a sale price of $38.7 million (before $1.8 million in closing credits to buyer for unfunded tenant improvements and after $1.3 million in closing credits to buyer for free rent) and recorded a gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $13.2 million; and

two industrial properties in Atlanta, GA for a sale price of $4.8 million and recorded a loss on disposition of discontinued operations of less than $0.1 million.

During the first quarter of 2013, we sold two office properties in Orlando, FL for a sale price of $14.6 million (before $0.8 million in closing credits to buyer for unfunded tenant improvements) and recorded a loss on disposition of discontinued operations of $0.3 million.

In connection with the disposition of an office property in Jackson, MS in the third quarter of 2012, we had the right to receive additional cash consideration of up to $1.5 million upon the satisfaction of a certain post-closing requirement. The post-closing requirement was satisfied and the cash consideration was received during the first quarter of 2013. Accordingly, we recognized $1.5 million in additional gain on disposition of discontinued operations in the first quarter of 2013.

2.    Real Estate Assets - Continued

Impairments

During the second quarter of 2013, we recorded impairments of real estate assets of $1.1 million on four properties in a single office park in Winston-Salem, NC. These impairments were due to a change in the assumed timing of future dispositions and leasing assumptions, which reduced the future expected cash flows from the properties.

During the first quarter of 2013, we recorded impairments of real estate assets of $0.4 million on two industrial properties in Atlanta, GA and recorded impairments of real estate assets held for sale of $0.7 million on five industrial properties in Atlanta, GA. These properties were subsequently sold in the second quarter of 2013 and are classified as discontinued operations. These impairments were due to a change in the assumed timing of future dispositions and leasing assumptions, which reduced the future expected cash flows from the properties.

During 2010, we provided seller financing in conjunction with two disposition transactions. The seller financing is evidenced by first mortgages secured by the assignment of rents and the underlying real estate assets.

During 2012, we provided secured acquisition financing to a third party. We also agreed to loan such third party $8.4 million on a secured basis to fund future infrastructure development. As of June 30, 2013, $0.1 million has been funded to the third party for infrastructure development. We concluded this arrangement to be an interest in a variable interest entity. However, since we do not have the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of the entity, we do not qualify as the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, the entity is not consolidated. Our risk of loss with respect to this arrangement is limited to the carrying value of the mortgage receivable and the future infrastructure development funding commitment.

We evaluate the ability to collect our mortgages and notes receivable by monitoring the leasing statistics and/or market fundamentals of these assets. As of June 30, 2013, our mortgages and notes receivable were not in default and there were no other indicators of impairment.
