EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2025 of Equity Residential and ERP Operating Limited Partnership. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “EQR” mean Equity Residential, a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”), and references to “ERPOP” mean ERP Operating Limited Partnership, an Illinois limited partnership. References to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” mean collectively EQR, ERPOP and those entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by EQR and/or ERPOP. References to the “Operating Partnership” mean collectively ERPOP and those entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by ERPOP. The following chart illustrates the Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s corporate structure:

 

img138330958_0.jpg

 

EQR is the general partner of, and as of September 30, 2025 owned an approximate 97.5% ownership interest in, ERPOP. The remaining 2.5% interest is owned by limited partners. As the sole general partner of ERPOP, EQR has exclusive control of ERPOP’s day-to-day management. Management operates the Company and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of EQR consists of the same members as the management of ERPOP.

The Company is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT (“UPREIT”) and EQR contributes all net proceeds from its various equity offerings to ERPOP. In return for those contributions, EQR receives a number of OP Units (see definition below) in ERPOP equal to the number of Common Shares it has issued in the equity offering. The Company may acquire properties in transactions that include the issuance of OP Units as consideration for the acquired properties. Such transactions may, in certain circumstances, enable the sellers to defer in whole or in part, the recognition of taxable income or gain that might otherwise result from the sales. This is one of the reasons why the Company is structured in the manner shown above. Based on the terms of ERPOP’s partnership agreement, OP Units can be exchanged with Common Shares on a one-for-one basis because the Company maintains a one-for-one relationship between the OP Units of ERPOP issued to EQR and the outstanding Common Shares.

The Company believes that combining the reports on Form 10-Q of EQR and ERPOP into this single report provides the following benefits:

enhances investors’ understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;

eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation since a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both the Company and the Operating Partnership; and

creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

 


Table of Contents

 

The Company believes it is important to understand the few differences between EQR and ERPOP in the context of how EQR and ERPOP operate as a consolidated company. All of the Company’s property ownership, development and related business operations are conducted through the Operating Partnership and EQR has no material assets or liabilities other than its investment in ERPOP. EQR’s primary function is acting as the general partner of ERPOP. EQR also issues equity from time to time, the net proceeds of which it is obligated to contribute to ERPOP. EQR does not have any indebtedness as all debt is incurred by the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of the assets of the Company, including the Company’s ownership interests in its joint ventures. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for the net proceeds from equity offerings by EQR (which are contributed to the capital of ERPOP in exchange for additional partnership interests in ERPOP (“OP Units”) (on a one-for-one Common Share per OP Unit basis) or additional preference units in ERPOP (on a one-for-one preferred share per preference unit basis)), the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by the Company’s business. These sources include the Operating Partnership’s working capital, net cash provided by operating activities, borrowings under its revolving credit facility and/or commercial paper program, the issuance of secured and unsecured debt and partnership interests, and proceeds received from disposition of certain properties and joint venture interests.

Shareholders’ equity, partners’ capital and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Company and those of the Operating Partnership. The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners’ capital in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in the Company’s financial statements. The noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements include the interests of unaffiliated partners in various consolidated partnerships. The noncontrolling interests in the Company’s financial statements include the same noncontrolling interests at the Operating Partnership level and limited partner OP Unit holders of the Operating Partnership. The differences between shareholders’ equity and partners’ capital result from differences in the equity issued at the Company and Operating Partnership levels.

To help investors understand the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, this report provides separate consolidated financial statements for the Company and the Operating Partnership; a single set of consolidated notes to such financial statements that includes separate discussions of each entity’s debt, noncontrolling interests and shareholders’ equity or partners’ capital, as applicable; and a combined Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section that includes discrete information related to each entity.

This report also includes separate Part I, Item 4, Controls and Procedures, sections and separate Exhibits 31 and 32 certifications for each of the Company and the Operating Partnership in order to establish that the requisite certifications have been made and that the Company and the Operating Partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

In order to highlight the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, the separate sections in this report for the Company and the Operating Partnership specifically refer to the Company and the Operating Partnership. In the sections that combine disclosure of the Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the Company. Although the Operating Partnership is generally the entity that directly or indirectly enters into contracts and joint ventures and holds assets and debt, reference to the Company is appropriate because the Company is one business and the Company operates that business through the Operating Partnership.

As general partner with control of ERPOP, EQR consolidates ERPOP for financial reporting purposes, and EQR essentially has no assets or liabilities other than its investment in ERPOP. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of the Company and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements. The separate discussions of the Company and the Operating Partnership in this report should be read in conjunction with each other to understand the results of the Company on a consolidated basis and how management operates the Company.

EQUITY RESIDENTIAL

ERP OPERATING LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.
Business

Equity Residential (“EQR”) is an S&P 500 company that owns and manages rental properties in dynamic metro areas across the U.S., a business that is conducted on its behalf by ERP Operating Limited Partnership (“ERPOP”). EQR is a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”) formed in March 1993 and ERPOP is an Illinois limited partnership formed in May 1993. References to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” mean collectively EQR, ERPOP and those entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by EQR and/or ERPOP. References to the “Operating Partnership” mean collectively ERPOP and those entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by ERPOP. Unless otherwise indicated, the notes to consolidated financial statements apply to both the Company and the Operating Partnership.

EQR is the general partner of, and as of September 30, 2025 owned an approximate 97.5% ownership interest in, ERPOP. All of the Company’s property ownership, development and related business operations are conducted through the Operating Partnership and EQR has no material assets or liabilities other than its investment in ERPOP. EQR issues equity from time to time, the net proceeds of which it is obligated to contribute to ERPOP, but does not have any indebtedness as all debt is incurred by the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of the assets of the Company, including the Company’s ownership interests in its joint ventures. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company, directly or indirectly through investments in title holding entities, owned all or a portion of 318 properties located in 10 states and the District of Columbia consisting of 86,320 apartment units. The ownership breakdown includes (table does not include any uncompleted development properties):

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and certain reclassifications considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025.

In preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The balance sheets at December 31, 2024 have been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

For further information, including definitions of capitalized terms not defined herein, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Income and Other Taxes

EQR has elected to be taxed as a REIT. This, along with the nature of the operations of its operating properties, resulted in no provision for federal income taxes at the EQR level. In addition, ERPOP generally is not liable for federal income taxes as the partners recognize their allocable share of income or loss in their tax returns; therefore no provision for federal income taxes has been made at the ERPOP level. Historically, the Company has generally only incurred certain state and local income, excise and franchise taxes. The Company has elected taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) status for certain of its corporate subsidiaries and, as a result, these entities will incur both federal and state income taxes on any taxable income of such entities after consideration of any net operating losses.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new standard on disaggregation of income statement expenses, which requires an entity to disclose, on an annual and interim basis, disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items in a tabular format in the notes to the financial statements. The standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new rules on its disclosures.

In March 2024, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") adopted final rules that will require certain climate-related information in registration statements and annual reports. In April 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed the new rules as a result of pending legal challenges. In March 2025, the SEC voted to end its defense of the rules. The new rules include a requirement to disclose material climate-related risks, descriptions of board and management oversight and risk management activities, the material impacts of these risks on a registrant’s strategy, business model and outlook, and any material climate-related targets or goals, as well as material effects and costs of severe weather events and other natural conditions and greenhouse gas emissions. Prior to the stay of the new rules, they would have been effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, except for the greenhouse gas emissions disclosures, which would have been effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2026. The Company is currently monitoring the legal challenges and evaluating the potential impact of the new rules on its disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued an amendment to the income tax standards which requires disclosure enhancements and further transparency to certain income tax disclosures, most notably the tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The new standard will be effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025 and will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Due to the nature of the Company's operations and the immaterial amount of income taxes incurred/paid due to its status as a REIT, we expect the adoption of the standard to have no impact on its disclosures. See the Income and Other Taxes section above for additional discussion.

In November 2023, the FASB issued an amendment to the segment reporting standards which requires disclosure for each reportable segment, on an interim and annual basis, of the significant expense categories and amounts that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included in each reported measure of a segment’s profit or loss. Additionally, it requires disclosure of the title and position of the individual or the name of the group or committee identified as the chief operating decision maker. The Company adopted the standard when effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2024 and interim periods beginning January 1, 2025 on a retrospective basis. See Note 12 for further discussion.

In March 2020, the FASB issued an amendment to the reference rate reform standard which provides the option for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, reference rate reform on contract modifications and hedge accounting. The new standard was effective for the Company upon issuance and elections could be made through December 31, 2024. The Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients and application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation.

Equity, Capital and Other Interests

The Company refers to “Common Shares” and “Units” (which refer to both OP Units and restricted units) as equity securities for EQR and “General Partner Units” and “Limited Partner Units” as equity securities for ERPOP. To provide a streamlined and more readable presentation of the disclosures for the Company and the Operating Partnership, several sections below refer to the respective terminology for each with the same financial information and separate sections are provided, where needed, to further distinguish any differences in financial information and terminology.

The equity positions of various individuals and entities that contributed their properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP Units, as well as the equity positions of the holders of restricted units, are collectively referred to as the “Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership” and “Limited Partners Capital,” respectively, for the Company and the Operating Partnership. Subject to certain exceptions (including the “book-up” requirements of restricted units), the Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital may exchange their Units with EQR for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The book value of the Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital (including redeemable interests) is allocated based on

22


Table of Contents

 

the number of Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital in total in proportion to the number of Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital in total plus the total number of Common Shares/General Partner Units. Net income is allocated to the Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital based on the weighted average ownership percentage during the period.

The Operating Partnership has the right but not the obligation to make a cash payment instead of issuing Common Shares to any and all holders of Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital requesting an exchange of their Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital with EQR. Once the Operating Partnership elects not to redeem the Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital for cash, EQR is obligated to deliver Common Shares to the exchanging holder of the Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital.

The Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital are classified as either mezzanine equity or permanent equity. If EQR is required, either by contract or securities law, to deliver registered Common Shares, such Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital are differentiated and referred to as “Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership” and “Redeemable Limited Partners,” respectively. Instruments that require settlement in registered shares cannot be classified in permanent equity as it is not always completely within an issuer’s control to deliver registered shares. Therefore, settlement in cash is assumed and that responsibility for settlement in cash is deemed to fall to the Operating Partnership as the primary source of cash for EQR, resulting in presentation in the mezzanine section of the balance sheet. The Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Redeemable Limited Partners are adjusted to the greater of book value or fair market value based on the Common Share price of EQR at the end of each respective reporting period. EQR has the ability to deliver unregistered Common Shares for the remaining portion of the Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital that are classified in permanent equity at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

The book value of the Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Redeemable Limited Partners is allocated based on the number of Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Redeemable Limited Partners in proportion to the number of Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital in total. Such percentage of the total book value of Units/Limited Partner Units which is ascribed to the Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Redeemable Limited Partners is then adjusted to the greater of book value or fair market value as described above. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Redeemable Limited Partners have a redemption value of approximately $181.6 million and $351.8 million, respectively, which represents the value of Common Shares that would be issued in exchange for the Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Redeemable Limited Partners.

The following table presents the changes in the redemption value of the Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership/Redeemable Limited Partners for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively (amounts in thousands):

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, 1,912,056 and 4,398 redeemable OP Units, respectively, were converted to Common Shares. These conversions impacted both the change in market and book values.

Net proceeds from EQR Common Share and Preferred Share (see definition below) offerings and proceeds from exercise of options for Common Shares are contributed by EQR to ERPOP. In return for those contributions, EQR receives a number of OP Units in ERPOP equal to the number of Common Shares it has issued in the equity offering (or in the case of a preferred equity offering, a number of preference units in ERPOP equal in number and having the same terms as the Preferred Shares issued in the equity offering). As a result, the net proceeds from Common Shares and Preferred Shares are allocated for the Company between shareholders’ equity and Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership and for the Operating Partnership between General Partner’s Capital and Limited Partners Capital to account for the change in their respective percentage ownership of the underlying equity.

The Company’s declaration of trust authorizes it to issue up to 100,000,000 preferred shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value per share (the “Preferred Shares”), with specific rights, preferences and other attributes as the Board of Trustees may determine, which may include preferences, powers and rights that are senior to the rights of holders of the Company’s Common Shares.

EQR and ERPOP currently have an active universal shelf registration statement for the issuance of equity and debt securities that automatically became effective upon filing with the SEC in May 2025 and expires in May 2028. Per the terms of ERPOP’s partnership agreement, EQR contributes the net proceeds of all equity offerings to the capital of ERPOP in exchange for additional OP Units (on a one-for-one Common Share per OP Unit basis) or preference units (on a one-for-one preferred share per preference unit basis).

The Company has an At-The-Market (“ATM”) share offering program which allows EQR to issue Common Shares from time to time into the existing trading market at current market prices or through negotiated transactions, including under forward sale arrangements. In May 2025, the Company replaced the prior program (which had expired) with a new program that matures in May 2028 and gives us the authority to issue up to 13.0 million shares, all of which remain available for issuance as of September 30, 2025.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased and subsequently retired approximately $94.3 million (1,466,818 shares at a weighted average price per share of $64.26) of its Common Shares in the open market under its share repurchase program. Concurrent with these transactions, ERPOP repurchased and retired the same amount of OP Units previously issued to EQR. The Company's Board of Trustees reauthorized the share repurchase program in the first quarter of 2025, giving the Company the authority to repurchase up to 13.0 million Common Shares. As of September 30, 2025, 11,533,182 shares remained available for repurchase under this program.

Investments in Partially Owned Entities

The Company has invested in various entities with unrelated third parties which are either consolidated or accounted for under the equity method of accounting (unconsolidated).

Consolidated Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”)

In accordance with accounting standards for consolidation of VIEs, the Company consolidates ERPOP on EQR’s financial statements. As the sole general partner of ERPOP, EQR has exclusive control of ERPOP’s day-to-day management. The limited partners are not able to exercise substantive kick-out or participating rights. As a result, ERPOP qualifies as a VIE. EQR has a controlling financial interest in ERPOP and, thus, is ERPOP’s primary beneficiary. EQR has the power to direct the activities of ERPOP that most significantly impact ERPOP’s economic performance as well as the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from ERPOP that could potentially be significant to ERPOP.

The Company has various equity interests in certain joint ventures that have been deemed to be VIEs, and the Company is the VIEs’ primary beneficiary. As a result, the joint ventures are required to be consolidated on the Company’s financial statements. The following table summarizes the Company’s consolidated joint ventures as of September 30, 2025:

Investments in Unconsolidated Entities

The Company has various equity interests in certain joint ventures that are unconsolidated and accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Most of these have been deemed to be VIEs and the Company is not the VIEs' primary beneficiary. The remaining have been deemed not to be VIEs and the Company does not have a controlling voting interest.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repaid $102.3 million of outstanding principal balances on the third-party construction mortgages for two of its unconsolidated development joint ventures in which it is a 75% owner. Concurrently, the Company advanced the funds to the joint ventures as replacement loans. The loans may be drawn up to a maximum of $104.1 million, bear interest at either SOFR+2.0% or SOFR+2.2%, mature in July 2027 and are secured by the underlying properties. As of September 30, 2025, the loans had an amortized cost basis (which includes accrued interest) of $102.8 million, and the fair values approximate the carrying values. The Company includes mortgage and interest receivable within other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company acquired its joint venture partner's 10% interest in a previously unconsolidated 270-unit apartment property for approximately $3.6 million in cash (net of cash acquired) and also contributed $50.5 million for the joint venture to repay the third-party construction loan encumbering the property. The property is now wholly owned.

Line of Credit and Commercial Paper

The Company has a $2.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility maturing on October 26, 2027. The Company has the ability to increase available borrowings by an additional $750.0 million by adding lenders to the facility, obtaining the agreement of existing lenders to increase their commitments or incurring one or more term loans. The interest rate on advances under the facility will generally be the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus a spread (currently 0.725%), or based on bids received from the lending group, and the Company pays an annual facility fee (currently 0.125%). Both the spread and the facility fee are dependent on the Company’s senior unsecured credit rating and other terms and conditions per the agreement. The Company did not borrow any amounts under its revolving credit facility during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

The Company has an unsecured commercial paper note program under which it may borrow up to a maximum of $1.5 billion subject to market conditions. The notes will be sold under customary terms in the United States commercial paper note market and will rank pari passu with all of the Company’s other unsecured senior indebtedness.

The following table summarizes certain weighted average interest rate, maturity and amount outstanding information for the commercial paper program as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2025:

Fair Value Measurements

The valuation of financial instruments requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the fair value of the instruments. The Company, where possible, bases the fair values of its financial instruments on listed market prices and third-party quotes. Where these are not available, the Company bases its estimates on current instruments with similar terms and maturities or on other factors relevant to the financial instruments.

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to the effect of interest rate changes. The Company may seek to manage these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives to hedge interest rate risk on debt instruments. The Company may also use derivatives to manage commodity prices in the daily operations of the business.

A three-level valuation hierarchy exists for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were approximately $1.9 million and $4.2 million in deferred gains, net, included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), respectively, related to previously settled and/or unsettled derivative instruments, of which an estimated $1.1 million may be recognized as additional interest expense during the twelve months ending September 30, 2026.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company paid approximately $3.5 million to settle five forward starting swaps in conjunction with the issuance of $500.0 million of seven-year unsecured public notes. The entire $3.5 million was initially deferred as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and $2.3 million will be recognized as an increase to interest expense over the seven-year term of the notes. The remaining $1.2 million covering the final three years of the ten-year term of the swaps will be amortized in conjunction with a future note refinance.

Other

The Company has invested in various equity securities without readily determinable fair values and has elected to measure them using the measurement alternative in accordance with the applicable accounting standards for equity securities. These investments are carried at cost less any impairment and adjusted to fair value if there are observable price changes for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer.

Contingencies

Litigation and Legal Matters

The Company, as an owner of real estate, is subject to various federal, state and local laws. Compliance by the Company with existing laws has not had a material adverse effect on the Company. However, the Company cannot predict the impact of new or changed laws or regulations on its current properties or on properties that it may acquire in the future.

The Company is involved in various pending and threatened legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company evaluates these litigation matters on an ongoing basis, but in no event less than quarterly, in assessing the adequacy of its accruals and disclosures. For legal proceedings in which it has been determined that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable, the Company records new accruals and/or adjusts existing accruals that represent its best estimate of the loss incurred based on the facts and circumstances known at that time. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s litigation accruals approximated $67.1 million and $42.4 million, respectively, and are included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Actual losses may differ materially from the amounts noted above and the ultimate outcome of these legal proceedings is generally not yet determinable. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company does not believe there is any litigation pending or threatened against it that, either individually or in the aggregate and inclusive of the matters accrued for as noted above and the matters discussed below, may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company and its financial condition.

The Company has been named as a defendant in a number of cases filed in late 2022 and 2023 alleging antitrust violations by RealPage, Inc., a seller of revenue management software products, and various owners and/or operators of multifamily housing, including us, that have utilized these products. The complaints allege collusion among the defendants to illegally fix and inflate the pricing of multifamily rents and seek monetary damages, injunctive relief, fees and costs. All of the cases except for one have been consolidated into a single putative class action in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee. On December 28, 2023, motions to dismiss this consolidated action, filed by RealPage, Inc. as well as us and our multifamily co-defendants, were denied by the Court and the case is proceeding. Another case with similar allegations has been filed by the District of Columbia against RealPage, Inc. and a number of multifamily owners and/or operators, including us, and no assurance can be given that similar additional cases will not be filed in the future. We continue to believe these various lawsuits are without merit and we intend to vigorously defend

against them. These proceedings continue to be in relatively early stages, the resolution of which cannot be predicted with certainty.

The Company is named as a defendant in a class action in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California filed in 2016 which alleges that the amount of late fees charged by the Company were improperly determined under California law. The plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages and other relief. On April 8, 2024, the Court issued certain findings of facts and conclusions of law that are adverse to the Company’s legal position. At this time, the Company is continuing to defend the action and the resolution of this matter cannot be predicted with certainty.

Reportable Segments

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which they may earn revenues and incur expenses and about which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is the Company’s chief executive officer, decides how resources are allocated and assesses performance on a recurring basis at least quarterly.

The Company’s primary business is the acquisition, development and management of multifamily residential properties, which includes the generation of rental and other related income through the leasing of apartment units to residents. The chief operating decision maker evaluates the Company’s operating performance of our apartment communities geographically by market on a same store basis and in total on a non-same store basis, which represent our operating segments.

The Company has aggregated its geographic same store operating segments into one reportable segment called same store. Management believes the properties in the same store reportable segment have similar economic characteristics, facilities, services and residents, which is in alignment with the required aggregation criteria. The following reflects the two reportable segments for the Company:

Same store primarily includes all properties acquired or completed that were stabilized (defined as having achieved 90% physical occupancy for three consecutive months) for all of the current and comparable periods presented.
Non-same store primarily includes all properties acquired during the current and prior year, any properties in lease-up and not stabilized for all of the current and comparable periods presented and any properties undergoing major renovations.

The Company has non-residential activities included in each of its reportable segments, which account for less than 4.0% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and serve as an amenity for our residential residents. All revenues are from external customers and there is no customer who contributed 10% or more of the Company’s total revenues during the nine months and quarters ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The primary financial measure for the Company’s reportable segments is net operating income (“NOI”), which represents rental income less: 1) property and maintenance expense and 2) real estate taxes and insurance expense (all as reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income). The Company believes that NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of its operating performance because it is a direct measure of the actual operating results of the Company’s apartment properties. Revenues for all leases are reflected on a straight-line basis in accordance with GAAP for the current and comparable periods.

Corporate overhead includes property management and general and administrative expenses.

The Company’s primary financial measure for evaluating each of its apartment communities is net operating income (“NOI”). NOI represents rental income less direct property operating expenses (including real estate taxes and insurance). The Company believes that NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of its operating performance because it is a direct measure of the actual operating results of the Company’s apartment properties.

See Note 12 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for our disclosure of reportable segments.

The comparison discussions provided below detail the changes in results for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year period.

The increase in same store rental income is primarily driven by good demand and modest supply across most of our markets.
The increase in same store operating expenses is due primarily to:
Real estate taxes – A $6.8 million increase due to escalation in rates and assessed values including an approximately one percentage point contribution to growth from 421-a tax abatement burnoffs in New York City. Once the burnoffs are completed, previously rent-restricted apartment units will transition to market;
Utilities – An $8.6 million increase primarily driven by higher commodity prices, higher sewer and trash rates and higher water usage in Southern California, along with a challenging comparable period; and
Repairs and maintenance - A $5.0 million increase primarily driven by costs associated with the implementation of various resident technology initiatives (including bulk Wi-Fi programs).
Non-same store/other NOI results consist primarily of properties acquired in calendar years 2024 and 2025, operations from the Company’s development properties, other corporate operations and operations prior to disposition from 2024 and 2025 sold properties. The increase in NOI is primarily a result of the Company's significant 2025 and second half of 2024 net acquisition activity, which is positively impacting 2025 results.

42


Table of Contents

 

The increase in consolidated total NOI is a result of the Company’s higher NOI from non-same store properties as noted above and higher NOI from same store properties, largely due to improvement in same store revenues and the Company's continued focus on same store expense efficiency.

See the Same Store Results section below for additional discussion of those results. See the reconciliation table of net income per the consolidated statements of operations to NOI above for the dollar and percentage changes related to the comparison discussions provided below.

Property management expenses include off-site expenses associated with the self-management of the Company’s properties as well as management fees paid to any third-party management companies. The increase during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year period is primarily attributable to increases in training and marketing expenses and information technology expenses, partially offset by decreases in workforce/contractors costs. Property management expenses decreased during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to decreases in payroll-related costs, legal and professional fees and workforce/contractor costs, partially offset by increases in information technology expenses.

General and administrative expenses, which include corporate operating expenses, increased during the nine months and quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to increases in payroll-related costs, workforce/contractor costs and other public company costs.

Depreciation expense increased during the nine months and quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year periods, primarily as a result of additional depreciation expense on properties acquired in 2024 and 2025 and development properties placed in service during 2024 and 2025, partially offset by lower depreciation from properties sold in 2024 and 2025.

Net gain on sales of real estate properties increased during the nine months and quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year periods, primarily as a result of the mix of properties sold in 2025 vs. 2024.

Interest and other income increased during the nine months and quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to a net increase in realized/unrealized gains on various investment securities, interest income on mortgages receivable and an employment tax refund received in 2025 but not in 2024, partially offset by lower insurance/litigation settlement proceeds received during 2025 as compared to 2024.

Other expenses decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to decreases in litigation accruals and advocacy contributions, partially offset by increases in the write-off of development pursuit costs and overhead. Other expenses increased during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to increases in litigation accruals and the write-off of development pursuit costs and overhead, partially offset by decreases in advocacy contributions.

Interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs, increased during the nine months and quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to higher overall debt balances outstanding and higher overall rates. The effective interest cost on all indebtedness, excluding debt extinguishment costs/prepayment penalties, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was 3.94% as compared to 3.90% for the prior year period, and for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 was 3.96% as compared to 3.92% for the prior year period. The Company capitalized interest of approximately $9.6 million and $10.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $2.9 million and $3.8 million during the quarters ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Loss from investments in unconsolidated entities increased during the nine months and quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year periods, primarily as a result of losses incurred on our unconsolidated development properties which recently started lease-up activities as well as those that recently stabilized and on our real estate technology and other real estate fund investments.

Note: The above table reflects Residential same store results only. Residential operations account for more than 96.0% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company's operating business performed well, driven by sustained demand across most of our markets and supported by high resident retention, continued low levels of unemployment and solid wage growth among our target renter demographic. Competitive new supply was modest in most of our Established Markets, but remains elevated in our Expansion Markets in 2025, resulting in a more challenging pricing environment. On a positive note, portions of our portfolio in Atlanta, particularly our suburban assets, have shown continued stability, with indications of potential improvement in market conditions as supply is beginning to abate.

San Francisco and New York continue to be our best performing markets. Each of these markets has experienced healthy demand as evidenced by strong Physical Occupancy, healthy pricing, low Turnover and modest new supply. The Seattle market also continued to improve due to large employers’ return to office policies and continued investment from technology companies, particularly around artificial intelligence, though higher supply levels mean the recovery in Seattle is occurring at a slower pace than in San Francisco. We did begin to see weakness in traffic during the second half of September 2025, particularly in Washington D.C., but also in other markets. Washington, D.C. experienced a market slowdown late in the third quarter of 2025, a result of several factors including uncertainty from government cuts, national guard deployment and an impending government shutdown. Los Angeles continues to face ongoing challenges as growth from the entertainment industry remains muted, limiting pricing power, despite an improving quality of life.

Overall, the fundamentals of our business are healthy and remain resilient despite recent macroeconomic uncertainty. Long-term, we expect continued positive secular tailwinds for our business due to elevated single family home ownership costs, positive household formation trends, historically low competitive new supply in our Established Markets and moderating competitive new supply in our Expansion Markets. With an overall deficit in housing across the country, we believe our business is well positioned for the future. We also see our resident base as being more resilient to economic uncertainty, including elevated inflation, due to higher levels of disposable income and lower relative rent-to-income ratios.

The following provides information regarding the Company’s cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Operating Activities

Our operating cash flows are primarily impacted by NOI and its components, such as Average Rental Rates, Physical Occupancy levels and operating expenses related to our properties. Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the prior year period increased by approximately $42.3 million primarily as a result of the NOI and other changes discussed above in Results of Operations.

Investing Activities

Our investing cash flows are primarily impacted by our transaction activity (acquisitions/dispositions), development spend and capital expenditures. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, key drivers were:

Acquired nine consolidated rental properties for approximately $637.9 million;
Disposed of five consolidated rental properties and one consolidated land parcel, receiving net proceeds of approximately $589.1 million;
Invested $82.0 million primarily in consolidated development projects;
Invested $243.6 million in capital expenditures to real estate;
Invested $83.6 million primarily in unconsolidated development joint venture entities as well as unconsolidated investments in real estate technology funds/companies for various technology initiatives and the repayment of certain preferred interests in one joint venture;
Acquired its joint venture partner's 10% interest in a previously unconsolidated apartment property for approximately $3.6 million in cash and also contributed $50.5 million for the joint venture to repay the third-party construction loan encumbering the property; and
Advanced $102.3 million as replacement loans to two of its unconsolidated development joint ventures following the Company’s repayment of outstanding principal balances on the third-party construction mortgages for these joint ventures. See Note 5 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Financing Activities

Our financing cash flows primarily relate to our borrowing activity (debt proceeds or repayment), distributions/dividends to shareholders/unitholders and other Common Share activity. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, key drivers were:

Repaid $40.7 million on mortgage loans (inclusive of scheduled principal repayments);
Repaid $450.0 million of 3.375% unsecured notes;
Received net proceeds of $302.5 million from our unsecured commercial paper note program;
Paid dividends/distributions on Common Shares, Preferred Shares, Units (including OP Units and restricted units) and noncontrolling interests in partially owned properties totaling approximately $811.6 million;
Issued $500.0 million of seven-year 4.95% unsecured notes, receiving net proceeds of approximately $498.6 million before underwriting fees, hedge termination costs and other expenses; and
Repurchased and retired 1,466,818 Common Shares, at a weighted average purchase price of $64.26 per share, for an aggregate purchased amount of approximately $94.3 million. See Note 3 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Short-Term Liquidity and Cash Proceeds

The Company generally expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements, including capital expenditures related to maintaining its existing properties and scheduled unsecured note and mortgage note repayments, through its working capital, net cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility and commercial paper program. Currently, the Company considers its cash provided by operating activities to be adequate to meet operating requirements and payments of distributions.

The following table presents the Company’s balances for cash and cash equivalents, restricted deposits and the available borrowing capacity on its revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (amounts in thousands):

Credit Facility and Commercial Paper Program

The Company has a $2.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility maturing October 26, 2027. The Company has the ability to increase available borrowings by an additional $750.0 million by adding lenders to the facility, obtaining the agreement of existing lenders to increase their commitments or incurring one or more term loans. The interest rate on advances under the facility will generally be the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a spread (currently 0.725%), or based on bids received from the lending group, and the Company pays an annual facility fee (currently 0.125%). Both the spread and the facility fee are dependent on the Company’s senior unsecured credit rating and other terms and conditions per the agreement. See Note 8 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional discussion of the Company’s credit facility.

The Company has an unsecured commercial paper note program under which it may borrow up to a maximum of $1.5 billion subject to market conditions. The notes will be sold under customary terms in the United States commercial paper note market and will rank pari passu with all of the Company’s other unsecured senior indebtedness.

The Company limits its utilization of the revolving credit facility in order to maintain liquidity to support its $1.5 billion commercial paper program along with certain other obligations. The following table presents the availability on the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility as of October 24, 2025 (amounts in thousands):

Dividend Policy

The Company declared a dividend/distribution for the first, second and third quarters of 2025 of $0.6925 per share/unit in each quarter, an annualized increase of 2.6% over the amount paid in 2024. All future dividends/distributions remain subject to the discretion of the Company’s Board of Trustees.

Total dividends/distributions paid in October 2025 amounted to $269.9 million (excluding distributions on Partially Owned Properties), which consisted of certain distributions declared during the quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Long-Term Financing and Capital Needs

The Company expects to meet its long-term liquidity requirements, such as lump sum unsecured note and mortgage debt maturities, property acquisitions and financing of development activities, through the issuance of secured and unsecured debt and equity securities (including additional OP Units), proceeds received from the disposition of certain properties and joint ventures, along with cash generated from operations after all distributions. The Company has a significant number of unencumbered properties available to secure additional mortgage borrowings should unsecured capital be unavailable or the cost of alternative sources of capital be too high. The value of and cash flow from these unencumbered properties are in excess of the requirements the Company must maintain in order to comply with covenants under its unsecured notes and line of credit. Of the $30.6 billion in investment in real estate on the Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2025, $27.6 billion or 90.2% was unencumbered. However, there can be no assurances that these sources of capital will be available to the Company in the future on acceptable terms or otherwise. For additional details, see Item 1A, Risk Factors, of the Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

EQR issues equity and guarantees certain debt of the Operating Partnership from time to time. EQR does not have any indebtedness as all debt is incurred by the Operating Partnership.

(1)
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) defines funds from operations (“FFO”) (December 2018 White Paper) as net income (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”)), excluding gains or losses from sales and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate and land when connected to the main business of a REIT, impairment write-downs of investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity and depreciation and amortization related to real estate. Adjustments for partially owned consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis.
(2)
Normalized funds from operations (“Normalized FFO”) begins with FFO and excludes:

the impact of any expenses relating to non-operating real estate asset impairment;

pursuit cost write-offs;

gains and losses from early debt extinguishment and preferred share/preference unit redemptions;

gains and losses from non-operating assets; and

other miscellaneous items.

(3)
The Company believes that FFO and FFO available to Common Shares and Units / Units are helpful to investors as supplemental measures of the operating performance of a real estate company, because they are recognized measures of performance by the real estate industry and by excluding gains or losses from sales and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate and excluding depreciation related to real estate (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO and FFO available to Common Shares and Units / Units can help compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. The Company also believes that Normalized FFO and Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units / Units are helpful to investors as supplemental measures of the operating performance of a real estate company because they allow investors to compare the Company’s operating performance to its performance in prior reporting periods and to the operating performance of other real estate companies without the effect of items that by their nature are not comparable from period to period and tend to obscure the Company’s actual operating results. FFO, FFO available to Common Shares and Units / Units, Normalized FFO and Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units / Units do not represent net income, net income available to Common Shares / Units or net cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, FFO, FFO available to Common Shares and Units / Units, Normalized FFO and Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units / Units should not be exclusively considered as alternatives to net income, net income available to Common Shares / Units or net cash flows from operating activities as determined by GAAP or as a measure of liquidity. The Company’s calculation of FFO, FFO available to Common Shares and Units / Units, Normalized FFO and Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units / Units may differ from other real estate companies due to, among other items, variations in cost capitalization policies for capital expenditures and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other real estate companies.
(4)
FFO available to Common Shares and Units / Units and Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units / Units are calculated on a basis consistent with net income available to Common Shares / Units and reflects adjustments to net income for preferred distributions and premiums on redemption of preferred shares/preference units in accordance with GAAP. The equity positions of various individuals and entities that contributed their properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP Units are collectively referred to as the “Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership.” Subject to certain restrictions, the Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership may exchange their OP Units for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s market risk has not changed materially from the amounts and information reported in Part II, Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, to the Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

There have been no material changes to the legal proceedings discussed in Part I, Item 3 of the Company's and the Operating Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2025, the Company does not believe there is any litigation pending or threatened against it that, either individually or in the aggregate, may reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company and its financial condition. See Note 11 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors that were discussed in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s and the Operating Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Unregistered Common Shares Issued in the Quarter Ended September 30, 2025 (Equity Residential)

During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, EQR issued 1,986,900 Common Shares in exchange for 1,986,900 OP Units held by various limited partners of ERPOP. OP Units are generally exchangeable into Common Shares on a one-for-one basis or, at the option of ERPOP, the cash equivalent thereof, at any time one year after the date of issuance. These shares were either registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or issued in reliance on an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as these were transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering.
