Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Deconsolidation of Sunset Glenoaks Studios: In August 2025, the company deconsolidated Sunset Glenoaks Studios due to a cash sweep on the property's loan. This resulted in a non-cash loss on deconsolidation of $77.9 million recorded in Q3 2025, significantly impacting the GAAP net loss.
• Portfolio Dispositions: The company sold three office properties (Maxwell, Foothill Research Center, and 625 Second) during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, generating gross proceeds of $97.0 million. These sales contributed to a $10.0 million net gain on sale of real estate for the YTD period.
• Equity Capital Raise: In June 2025, HPP completed an underwritten public offering of 237.6 million shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants, raising gross proceeds of $689.3 million. Net proceeds were used to repay the unsecured revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.
• Debt Refinancing: The company secured a new $475.0 million Office Portfolio CMBS loan and fully repaid its Series B, C, and D notes, as well as the Element LA loan. Total debt decreased by approximately $611 million compared to year-end 2024.
• NOI Decline: Consolidated NOI decreased 3.4% in Q3 and 15.1% YTD compared to the prior year, driven by lease terminations at key office properties (e.g., Met Park North, 1455 Market) and lower production activity at certain studio properties.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

• Occupancy Trends: As of September 30, 2025, the in-service office portfolio was 76.5% leased (74.0% occupied), while same-store studio properties were 75.9% leased. Management noted lease terminations at several major office tenants impacting rental revenue.
• Development Pipeline: Significant development activity continues, including Sunset Pier 94 Studios (Manhattan), Washington 1000 (Seattle), and various Hollywood studio expansions. Sunset Pier 94 Studios is expected to complete in Q4 2025.
• Liquidity: The company maintains strong liquidity with $190.4 million in cash and $795.3 million in remaining capacity under its unsecured revolving credit facility. The recent equity offering significantly bolstered the balance sheet.
• Risks: Key risks include adverse economic conditions affecting the office market, tenant defaults or non-renewals, interest rate fluctuations, and the company's non-investment grade credit ratings (B2, B, B+), which could impact future borrowing costs.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Deconsolidation Impact: Verify the long-term impact of the Sunset Glenoaks Studios deconsolidation on future cash flows and the accuracy of the $77.9 million loss calculation.
• Office Occupancy: Monitor lease renewal rates and vacancy trends at major office assets, particularly following recent terminations at 1455 Market and Met Park North.
• Debt Maturity Wall: Review the schedule of debt maturities, noting the $1.07 billion due in 2026 (Hollywood Media Portfolio CMBS) and the refinancing strategy for these obligations.
• Equity Dilution: Assess the impact of the June 2025 equity offering (237.6 million shares) on earnings per share and ownership structure.
• FFO vs. Net Loss: Analyze the divergence between GAAP Net Loss and Funds From Operations (FFO) to understand the core operating performance excluding non-cash impairments and deconsolidation losses.
