Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Organization and Basis of Presentation	1. Organization and Basis of Presentation Easterly Government Properties, Inc. (which may be referred to in these financial statements as the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a Maryland corporation that intends to qualify as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) commencing with its taxable period ending on December 31, 2015. The operations of the Company are carried on primarily through Easterly Government Properties LP (the “Operating Partnership”) and the wholly owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. We are an internally managed REIT, focused primarily on the acquisition, development, and management of Class A commercial properties that are leased to U.S. Government agencies that serve essential functions. We generate substantially all of our revenue by leasing our properties to such agencies through the U.S. General Services Administration (the “GSA”). Our objective is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders over the long term through dividends and capital appreciation. As of June 30, 2015, we wholly owned 31 properties in the United States, including 28 properties that were leased primarily to U.S. Government tenant agencies and three properties that were entirely leased to private tenants, encompassing approximately 2.2 million square feet in the aggregate. We focus on acquiring, developing, and managing GSA-leased properties that are essential to supporting the mission of the tenant agency and strive to be a partner of choice for the U.S. Government, working closely with the GSA to meet the needs and objectives of the tenant agency. We were incorporated in Maryland as a corporation on October 9, 2014 and did not have any meaningful operations until the completion of the formation transactions and our initial public offering on February 11, 2015 (the “IPO”). On February 11, 2015, we completed an initial public offering of 13.8 million shares of our common stock at a price to the public of $15.00 per share, including 1.8 million shares sold in connection with the full exercise of the option to purchase additional shares granted to the underwriters, resulting in gross proceeds of $207.0 million. The aggregate net proceeds to the Company after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company, was approximately $191.6 million. The Company contributed the net proceeds from the IPO to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common units representing limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (“common units”). In connection with the IPO, we engaged in certain formation transactions (the “formation transactions”) pursuant to which the Operating Partnership acquired (i) 15 properties previously owned by the Easterly Funds (as defined below) in exchange for 3,308,000 shares of common stock and 8,635,714 common units (ii) 14 properties previously owned by Western Devcon, Inc., a private real estate company and a series of related entities beneficially owned by Michael P. Ibe (collectively, “ Western Devcon”), in exchange for 5,759,819 common units and (iii) all of the ownership interests in the management entities (as defined below) in exchange for 1,135,406 common units. Concurrent with the IPO, the Company sold an aggregate of 7,033,712 shares of its common stock to the Easterly Funds in a private placement at a price per share of $15.00 without payment of any underwriting fees, discounts or commissions. Our predecessor (the “Predecessor”) means Easterly Partners, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries, including (i) all entities or interests in U.S. Government Properties Income and Growth Fund L.P., U.S. Government Properties Income and Growth Fund REIT, Inc. and the related feeder and subsidiary entities (collectively, “Easterly Fund I,”) (ii) all entities or interests in U.S. Government Properties Income and Growth Fund II, LP, USGP II REIT LP, USGP II (Parallel) Fund, LP and their related feeders and subsidiary entities (collectively, “Easterly Fund II” and, together with Easterly Fund I, the “Easterly Funds”) and (iii) the entities that manage the Easterly Funds, (the “management entities”). All of the Company’s assets and its operations are primarily conducted through the Operating Partnership. The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Company owned 60.9% of the Operating Partnership’s common units at June 30, 2015 and the remaining 39.1% was owned by the Easterly Funds and certain members of management. Principle of Combination and Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company, including Easterly Government Properties TRS, LLC and Easterly Government Services, LLC, and the Operating Partnership. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Upon completion of the IPO and the related formation transactions, the Company succeeded to the operations of the Predecessor. Prior to the IPO, the Predecessor was under the control of Darrell W. Crate, the Chairman of our Board of Directors. These financial statements reflect the consolidated equity ownership structure of the Company as if the IPO and formation transactions related to the Easterly Funds and management entities had been completed as of January 1, 2014. The formation transactions related to the Easterly Funds and the management entities were accounted for at carryover basis due to the existence of common control. Prior to the IPO, the Easterly Funds, as controlled by the Predecessor, qualified as investment companies pursuant to ASC 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies and, as a result, the Predecessor’s consolidated financial statements accounted for the Easterly Funds using specialized investment company accounting based on fair value. Subsequent to the IPO, as the properties contributed to us from the Easterly Funds are no longer held by funds that qualify for investment company accounting, we made a shift, in accordance with GAAP, to account for the properties contributed by the Easterly Funds using historical cost accounting instead of investment company accounting, resulting in a significant change in the presentation of our consolidated financial statements following the formation transactions. The contribution of the Western Devcon properties in the formation transactions has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting and recognized at the estimated fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities on the date of such contribution. Due to the timing of the IPO and the formation transactions, the Company’s financial condition as of December 31, 2014 reflects the financial condition of the Company and the Predecessor and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 reflect the financial condition and results of operations of the Predecessor. The Company’s financial condition as of June 30, 2015 and results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 reflect the financial condition and results of operations of the Predecessor combined with the Company for the period prior to February 11, 2015, and the Company’s consolidated results for the period from February 11, 2015 through June 30, 2015. Interim Financial Information The information in the Company’s combined consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 is unaudited and at December 31, 2014 is audited. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 and at December 31, 2014 include adjustments based on management’s estimates (consisting of normal and recurring accruals), which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods. The financial information should be read in conjunction with the combined consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the notes thereto and the final prospectus relating to the IPO, dated February 5, 2015, both of which the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are not necessarily indicative of actual operating results for the entire year.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In light of the significant differences that exist between our basis of accounting subsequent to the IPO (historical cost accounting) and the pre-IPO basis of accounting (investment company accounting), we present the significant accounting policies for both periods below.

a) Significant Accounting Policies for the Company post-IPO

Real Estate Properties

Real estate properties comprise all tangible assets we hold for rent. Real property is recognized at cost less accumulated depreciation. Betterments, major renovations and certain costs directly related to the improvement of real properties are capitalized. Maintenance and repair expenses are charged to expense as incurred.

When we acquire properties, we allocate the purchase price to numerous tangible and intangible components. Our process for determining the allocation to these components requires many estimates and assumptions, including the following: (1) determination of market rental rates; (2) estimation of leasing and tenant improvement costs associated with the remaining term of acquired leases; (3) assumptions used in determining the in-place lease and if-vacant value including the rental rates, period of time that it would take to lease vacant space and estimated tenant improvement and leasing costs; (4) renewal probabilities; and (5) allocation of the if-vacant value between land and building. A change in any of the above key assumptions can materially change not only the presentation of acquired properties in our consolidated financial statements but also our reported results of operations. The allocation to different components affects the following:

·	the amount of the purchase price allocated among different categories of assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets; and the amount of costs assigned to individual properties in multiple property acquisitions;

where the amortization of the components appear over time in our consolidated statements of operations. Allocations to above- and below-market leases are amortized into rental revenue, whereas allocations to most of the other tangible and intangible assets are amortized into depreciation and amortization expense. As a REIT, this is important to us since much of the investment community evaluates our operating performance using non-GAAP measures such as funds from operations, the computation of which includes rental revenue but does not include depreciation and amortization expense; and

the timing over which the items are recognized as revenue or expense in our consolidated statements of operations. For example, for allocations to the as-if vacant value, the land portion is not depreciated and the building portion is depreciated over a longer period of time than the other components (generally 40 years). Allocations to above- and below-market leases and in-place lease value are amortized over significantly shorter timeframes, and if individual tenants’ leases are terminated early, any unamortized amounts remaining associated with those tenants are written off upon termination. These differences in timing can materially affect our reported results of operations.

Tenant improvements are capitalized in real property when we own the improvement. When we are required to provide improvements under the terms of a lease, we need to determine whether the improvements constitute landlord assets or tenant assets. If the improvements are considered landlord assets, we capitalize the cost of the improvements and recognize depreciation expense associated with such improvements over the shorter of the useful life of the assets or the term of the lease and recognize any payments from the tenant as rental revenue over the term of the lease. If the improvements are considered tenant assets, we defer the cost of improvements funded by us as a lease incentive asset and amortize it as a reduction of rental revenue over the term of the lease. Our determination of whether improvements are landlord assets or tenant assets also may affect when we commence revenue recognition in connection with a lease. In determining whether improvements constitute landlord or tenant assets, we consider numerous factors that may require subjective or complex judgments, including: whether the improvements are unique to the tenant or reusable by other tenants; whether the tenant is permitted to alter or remove the improvements without our consent or without compensating us for any lost fair value; whether the ownership of the improvements remains with us or remains with the tenant at the end of the lease term; and whether the economic substance of the lease terms is properly reflected.

Depreciation of an asset begins when it is available for use and is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Each period, depreciation is charged to expense and credited to the related accumulated depreciation account. A used asset acquired is depreciated over its estimated remaining useful life, not to exceed the life of a new asset. Range of useful lives for depreciable assets are as follows:

Category		Term
Buildings		40 years
Building improvements		5 - 40 years
Tenant improvements		Shorter of remaining life of the lease or useful life
Furniture and equipment		3 - 7 years

We regularly evaluate whether events or changes in circumstances have occurred that could indicate an impairment in the value of long lived assets. If there is an indication that the carrying value of an asset is not recoverable, we estimate the projected undiscounted cash flows to determine if an impairment loss should be recognized. We determine the amount of any impairment loss by comparing the historical carrying value to estimated fair value. We estimate fair value through an evaluation of recent financial performance and projected discounted cash flows using standard industry valuation techniques. In addition to consideration of impairment upon the events or changes in circumstances described above, we regularly evaluate the remaining lives of our long lived assets. If we change our estimate of the remaining lives, we allocate the carrying value of the affected assets over their revised remaining lives.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and liquid investments that mature three months or less from when they are purchased. Cash equivalents are reported at cost, which approximates fair value. We maintain our cash in bank accounts in amounts that may exceed Federally insured limits at times. We have not experienced any losses in these accounts and believe that we are not exposed to significant credit risk because our accounts are deposited with major financial institutions.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of amounts escrowed for future real estate taxes, insurance, capital expenditures and debt service, as required by certain of our mortgage debt agreements.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing fees include issuance costs related to borrowings and we amortize those costs over the terms of the related indebtedness. Any unamortized amounts upon early repayment of mortgage notes payable are written off in the period in which repayment occurs. Fully amortized deferred financing fees are removed from the books upon maturity or repayment of the underlying debt. As of June 30, 2015, we recognized $3.4 million in deferred financing costs associated with entering into a $400.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility upon completion of the IPO. Additionally, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 we recognized $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, in accumulated amortization associated with the credit facility.

Non-Controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests relate to the common units of the Operating Partnership not owned by the Company. Common units of the Operating Partnership are owned by the limited partners who contributed properties and other assets to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common units. The Company contributed the net proceeds from the IPO to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common units of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership. Fifteen months after the IPO, limited partners of the Operating Partnership, other than the Company, will have the right to require the Operating Partnership to redeem part or all of their common units for cash, based upon the value of an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s common stock at the time of the election to redeem, or, at the Company’s election, shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis. Unitholders receive a distribution per unit equivalent to the dividend per share of the Company’s common stock. Pursuant to the consolidation accounting standard with respect to the accounting and reporting for non-controlling interest changes and changes in ownership interest of a subsidiary, changes in parent’s ownership interest when the parent retains controlling interest in the subsidiary should be accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amount of the non-controlling interest shall be adjusted to reflect the change in its ownership interest in the subsidiary, with the offset to equity attributable to the Company.

Revenue Recognition

Rental income includes base rents paid by each tenant in accordance with its lease agreement conditions. We recognize rental income on a straight-line basis over the lease term of the respective leases. For acquisitions of existing buildings, we recognize rental income from leases already in place coincident with the date of property closing. Lease incentives are recorded as a deferred asset and amortized as a reduction of revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. Tenant reimbursement income (scheduled rent increases based on increases in real estate taxes, operating expenses and utility usage) is recognized by us in the consolidated statements of operations when earned and when their amounts can be reasonably estimated. Above- and below-market leases are amortized into rental income over the terms of the respective leases.

Income Taxes

We intend to elect and to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with the taxable year ending December 31, 2015. So long as we qualify as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our net income that we distribute to our stockholders. To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we are required under the Code to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to our stockholders and meet certain other requirements. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. Even if we qualify as a REIT, we will be subject to certain U.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income and property, and on taxable income that we do not distribute to our stockholders. In addition, we may provide services that are not customarily provided by a landlord, hold properties for sale and engage in other activities (such as a management business) through Taxable REIT Subsidiaries (“TRSs”) and the income of those subsidiaries will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at regular corporate rates. For the period ending June 30, 2015, we did not incur any material tax liability associated with any of the above.

We do not anticipate any potential expense related to uncertain tax positions as we closely monitor our REIT compliance, do not have any prohibited transactions related to property sales, and neither the states in which we operate nor our foreign investors subject us to withholding tax requirements.

Stock Based Compensation

Prior to the completion of the IPO, our Board of Directors adopted, and our sole stockholder approved, our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, under which we may grant future cash and equity incentive awards to our executive officers, non-employee directors and eligible employees. See Note 6 (Equity) for further information. The shares issued to officers, employees, and non-employee directors vest over a period of time as determined by the Board of Directors at the date of grant. The Company recognizes compensation expense for non-vested shares granted to officers, employees and non-employee directors on a straight-line basis over the requisite service and/or performance period based upon the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant, as adjusted for forfeitures.

Earnings Per Share of Common Stock Amount

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income available to Easterly Government Properties Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding the weighted average number of unvested restricted shares. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period plus other potentially dilutive securities such as stock grants or shares that would be issued in the event that common units of the Operating Partnership are redeemed for shares of common stock of the Company. Unvested restricted shares and LTIP units are considered participating securities which require the use of the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share.

Deferred Offering Costs

The Company capitalizes certain legal, accounting and other third party fees that are directly associated with in-process equity financings as other assets until such financings are consummated. After consummation of the equity financing, these costs are recorded as a reduction to capital. Should the equity financing no longer be considered probable of being consummated, the deferred offering costs would be expensed immediately as a charge to corporate general and administrative expenses in the accompanying combined statement of operations.

Segments

The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. All revenue has been generated in the United States and all tangible assets are held in the United States.

Application of new accounting standards

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance simplifying the presentation of debt issuance costs. The guidance requires that all costs incurred to issue debt be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the debt. The amortization of these costs will remain under the interest method and will continue to be reported as interest expense. The guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The new guidance will be applied on a retrospective basis. We have not yet determined the impact, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued guidance modifying the analysis a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. The guidance does not change the general order in which the consolidation models are applied. A reporting entity that holds an economic interest in, or is otherwise involved with, another legal entity first determines if the variable interest entity model applies, and if so, whether it holds a controlling financial interest under that model. If the entity being evaluated for consolidation is not a variable interest entity, then the voting model should be applied to determine whether the entity should be consolidated by the reporting entity. Key changes to the guidance include, though are not limited to; (i.) limiting the extent to which related party interests are included in the other economic interest criterion to the decision maker’s effective interest holding, (ii.) requiring limited partners of a limited partnership, or the members of a limited liability company that is similar to a limited partnership, to have, at minimum, kick-out or participating rights to demonstrate that the partnership is a voting entity, (iii.) changing the evaluation of whether the equity holders at risk lack decision making rights when decision making is outsourced and (iv.) changing how the economics test is performed. The guidance does not amend the existing disclosure requirements for variable interest entities or voting model entities. The guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. This standard will not have a significant impact as the Company does not have any joint ventures.

b) Significant Accounting Policies of the Company pre-IPO

Real Estate Investments

Real estate investments represent investments in real estate entities that own real estate assets and are stated at the fair value of the net equity interest in the real estate investments as discussed below. Subsequent changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. Upon the disposition of a real estate investment, realized gains and losses are determined by deducting the proceeds received by the Predecessor from the basis of the real estate investment; any previously unrealized gains and losses are reversed.

Distributions from real estate entities are recorded as dividend income when received to the extent distributed from the estimated taxable earnings and profits of the underlying investment vehicle and as a return of capital to the extent not in excess of that amount.

Under investment company accounting, the statements of operations reflect the change in fair value of the real estate investments of the Easterly Funds, prior to the IPO, whether realized or unrealized.

Fair Value of Investments

The fair value of the real estate investments is determined using a fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy is based on the observability of inputs used to measure fair value and requires additional disclosure regarding the fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between marketplace participants at the measurement date (exit price). The fair value of an asset or a liability disregards transaction costs and assumes the asset or liability’s highest and best use. As the investments are in entities that invest in real estate, the estimated values are based on the underlying assets, liabilities, and cash flows of the related properties. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1		Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market.

Level 2		Valuation is based upon observable inputs:

		a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets,

		b) Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in not active markets, or

		c) Model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

Level 3		Valuation is based upon prices or valuation techniques that require assumptions not observable in the market which are significant to the overall fair value measurement. These unobservable inputs reflect the Predecessor’s own estimates about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk). Valuation techniques include the use of discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.

Non-Controlling Interest

Consolidation addresses the accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated capital resulting from operations attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest, the changes in a parent’s ownership interest, and the valuation of retained non-controlling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated per ASC 810.

Prior to the IPO, all of the partners invested in the Easterly Funds represented a non-controlling interest. In addition, prior to the IPO, a third-party member had invested in Federal Properties, GP, LLC, an entity included within the Predecessor, which also represented a non-controlling interest.

3. Real Estate and Intangibles

Formation transactions

The contribution of the investments of the Easterly Funds to the Operating Partnership pursuant to the formation transactions is accounted for as transactions among entities under common control. As a result, the fair value of the real estate investments at the time of the formation transactions was deemed the initial cost. Such fair value was allocated to the underlying real estate properties, related intangible assets and liabilities and mortgage debt ascribed to the properties. Refer to Note 5 (Fair Value Measurements) for additional discussion on fair value. Prior to the IPO on February 11, 2015, the Easterly Funds qualified as investment companies pursuant to ASC 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies and, as a result, the Predecessor’s consolidated financial statements accounted for the Easterly Funds using investment company accounting based on fair value. Subsequent to the IPO, as the properties contributed to us from the Easterly Funds are no longer held by funds that qualify for investment company accounting, we made a shift, in accordance with GAAP to account for the properties contributed by the Easterly Funds using historical cost accounting instead of investment company accounting, resulting in a significant change in the presentation of our consolidated financial statements following the formation transactions.

As part of the formation transactions, Western Devcon entered into a contribution agreement with us and the Operating Partnership pursuant to which it contributed its 100% interest in each of 14 properties to the Operating Partnership upon completion of the IPO. In exchange for its contribution, Western Devcon received 5,759,819 common units in the Operating Partnership valued at the time of the IPO at $86.4 million. This contribution has been accounted for as a business combination using purchase accounting. The total estimated purchase price, equal to the aggregate value of the Operating Partnership’s common units, was allocated to the net tangible assets and intangible assets based on their estimated fair values as of the completion of the acquisition of the Western Devcon properties.

As part of the formation transactions, we acquired the following properties, as set forth in the table below:

Post Formation Acquisition Activities

For the period from February 11, 2015 to June 30, 2015, we acquired two properties, DOE – Lakewood and AOC - Aberdeen for an aggregate purchase price of $34.3 million. We allocated the purchase prices of these acquisitions based on the estimated fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities as follows:

We did not assume any debt upon acquisition of the two properties. The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in 2015 are preliminary as we continue to finalize their acquisition date fair value determination.

The intangible assets and liabilities have an aggregate weighted average amortization period of 7.58 years as of June 30, 2015.

For the period of February 11, 2015 to June 30, 2015, we included $29.3 million of revenues and $1.5 million of net loss in our consolidated statement of operations related to the properties contributed or acquired. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we incurred $1.6 million of acquisition-related costs associated with the contribution of Western Devcon assets and the acquisition of DOE - Lakewood and AOC - Aberdeen and $1.7 million in formation expenses, which include costs associated with the contribution of the investments of the Easterly Funds.

Debt

4. Debt

At June 30, 2015, our borrowings consisted of the following (dollars in thousands):

	Total
Senior unsecured revolving credit facility	$	33,417
Mortgage debt		69,369
Total	$	102,786

a. Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility

Upon the completion of the IPO on February 11, 2015 we entered into a $400.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility with Raymond James Bank, N.A. and Royal Bank of Canada, as co-syndication agents and Citigroup Capital Markets Inc., Raymond James Bank, N.A. and Royal Bank of Canada, as joint lead arrangers and joint book running managers. This credit facility has an accordion feature that provides us with additional capacity, subject to the satisfaction of customary terms and conditions, of up to $250.0 million, for a total facility size of not more than $650.0 million. We intend to use the senior unsecured revolving credit facility to repay indebtedness, fund acquisitions, development and redevelopment opportunities, capital expenditures and the costs of securing new and renewal leases and provide working capital.

The Operating Partnership is the borrower under the senior unsecured revolving credit facility and we and certain of our subsidiaries that directly own certain of our properties are guarantors under the credit facility. The senior unsecured revolving credit facility will terminate in approximately four years. In addition, there will be two extension options for the senior unsecured revolving credit facility and each extension option will allow us to extend the senior unsecured revolving credit facility for an additional six months, in each case if certain conditions are satisfied.

Our senior unsecured revolving credit facility bears interest, at our option, either at:

·	a fluctuating rate equal to the sum of (a) the highest of (x) Citibank, N.A.’s base rate, (y) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (z) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% plus (b) a margin ranging from 0.4% to 0.9%, or

·	a Eurodollar rate equal to a periodic fixed rate equal to LIBOR plus, a margin ranging from 1.4% to 1.9%, in each case with a margin based on our leverage ratio.

Our senior unsecured revolving credit facility also contains certain customary financial covenants, as follows: (i) the maximum ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to total asset value (each as defined in the agreement) may not exceed 60.0% on any date, provided that the maximum ratio may be increased to 65.0% for the two consecutive quarters following the date on which a material acquisition (as defined in the agreement) occurs, (ii) the maximum ratio of consolidated secured indebtedness (as defined in the agreement) to total asset value may not exceed 40.0% on any date, (iii) the maximum ratio of consolidated secured recourse indebtedness (as defined in the agreement) to total asset value may not exceed 15% on any date, (iv) the minimum consolidated tangible net worth (as defined in the agreement) may not, on any date, be less than the sum of an amount equal to 75.0% of our consolidated tangible net worth as of the closing date of the facility plus an amount equal to 75.0% of the aggregate net cash proceeds received by us from any offering of our capital stock after the closing date of the facility, (v) the minimum ratio of adjusted consolidated EBITDA to consolidated fixed charges (each as defined in the agreement) may not be less than 1.50 to 1.00 on any date, (vi) the maximum ratio of consolidated unsecured indebtedness to unencumbered asset value (each as defined in the agreement) may not exceed 60% as of any date and (vii) the minimum ratio of adjusted consolidated net operating income from unencumbered assets (as defined in the agreement) to interest payable on unsecured debt (as determined in accordance with the agreement) shall not be less than 1.75 to 1.00 on any date. Additionally, under the revolving credit facility, our distributions may not exceed the greater of (i) 95.0% of our FFO or (ii) the amount required for us to maintain our status as a REIT and avoid the payment of federal or state income or excise tax.

Our senior unsecured revolving credit facility also includes customary limits on the percentage of our total asset value that may be invested in unimproved land, unconsolidated joint ventures, redevelopment and development assets (as defined in the agreement), loans, advances or extensions of credit and investments in mixed used assets and require that we obtain consent for mergers in which the company is not the surviving entity. These financial and restrictive covenants may limit the investments we may make and our ability to make distributions. As of June 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all financial and restrictive covenants under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility.

As of June 30, 2015, the interest rate payable on borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 1.59% and the weighted average annual interest rate for borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 1.59% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, we had $33.4 million outstanding and $366.6 million available under our revolving credit facility.

b. Mortgage Debt

As part of the formation transaction, we completed the repayment or defeasance of, and full satisfaction of our obligations with respect to, $293.4 million of secured nonrecourse mortgage loans.

The fair value of our mortgage debt was determined at the date of the formation transactions by discounting future contractual principal and interest payments using prevailing market rates for securities with similar terms and characteristics at the date of the IPO. At June 30, 2015, the carrying amount approximated the estimated fair value of the Company’s debt instruments net of any amortization of the notes premium or discount. The table below provides a summary of our mortgage debt at June 30, 2015 (dollars in thousands):

Property	Fixed/Floating	Contractual Interest Rate			Effective Interest Rate			Maturity Date	Principal Balance		Premium/Discount			Carrying Value

On October 16, 2014, the Company issued 1,000 shares to its sole stockholder, Darrell Crate, for $1,000, which we repurchased upon the IPO.

On February 11, 2015, we completed an initial public offering of 13.8 million shares of our common stock at a price to the public of $15.00 per share, including 1.8 million shares sold in connection with the full exercise of the option to purchase additional shares granted to the underwriters, resulting in gross proceeds of $207.0 million. In connection with the IPO, we engaged in a series of formation transactions by which we acquired 15 properties previously owned by the Easterly Funds and the ownership interests in the management entities in exchange for 9,771,120 common units and 3,308,000 shares of common stock. Additionally, in connection with the IPO, Western Devcon contributed its interest in 14 properties to the Company in an exchange for 5,759,819 common units.

Concurrent with the IPO, the Company sold an aggregate of 7,033,712 shares of its common stock to the Easterly Funds in a private placement at a price per share of $15.00 without payment of any underwriting fees, discounts or commissions.

Prior to the completion of the IPO, our Board of Directors adopted, and our sole stockholder approved, our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, under which we may grant future cash and equity incentive awards to our executive officers, non-employee directors and eligible employees in order to attract, motivate and retain the talent for which we compete. The 2015 Equity Incentive Plan permits us to make grants of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, restricted stock, dividend equivalent rights, cash-based awards, performance-based awards and other equity-based awards, including LTIP units, or any combination of the foregoing.

On February 10, 2015, we filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 covering the shares of our common stock issuable under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan. The 2015 Equity Incentive Plan is administered by the compensation committee of the Board of Directors. The 2015 Equity Incentive Plan permits the granting of both options to purchase shares of our common stock intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code and options that do not so qualify. The option exercise price of each option will be determined by our compensation committee but may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The term of each option will be fixed by our compensation committee and may not exceed ten years from the grant date. Our compensation committee may also grant awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares or cash-based awards under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan that are intended to qualify as “performance based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. Those awards would only vest or become payable upon the attainment of performance goals that are established by our compensation committee and related to established performance criteria. From and after the time that we become subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, the maximum award that is intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code that may be made to any one employee during any one calendar year period is 2,273,959 shares of our common stock with respect to stock-based award and $5.0 million with respect to a cash based award.

The shares issued under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan are authorized but unissued shares or shares that we reacquire. The shares of our common stock underlying any awards that are forfeited, cancelled, held back upon exercise or settlement of an award to satisfy the exercise price or tax withholding, reacquired by us prior to vesting, satisfied without any issuance of stock, expire or are otherwise terminated (other than by exercise) under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan are added back to the shares available for issuance under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan.

We have reserved 2,273,959 shares of our common stock for issuance of awards under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, including 26,667 shares of restricted common stock issued to our non-employee directors at the completion of the IPO, which will vest upon the anniversary of the date of grant or the next annual stockholder meeting, as applicable.

On May 6, 2015, the Board approved the issuance of 891,000 LTIP Units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership to members of management under a long-term incentive plan. Earned awards (if any) will vest 50% on February 15, 2018 and 50% on February 6, 2019, subject to the Company achieving certain absolute and relative total shareholder returns and management’s continued employment. Vesting will be accelerated in the event of a change in control, termination of employment by the Company without cause, or termination of employment by the award recipient for good reason, death, disability or retirement. If there is a change of control prior to February 15, 2018, earned awards will be calculated based on total shareholder return performance up to the date of the change of control. The LTIP unit awards (i) are subject to forfeiture to the extent awards are not earned and (ii) prior to the performance measurement date are only entitled to one-tenth (10%) of the regular quarterly distributions payable on common units. The Company measures the LTIP Unit awards at the fair value on date of grant.

We recognized $0.4 million and $0.5 million in compensation expense related to the restricted common stock and the LTIP Unit awards for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. As of June 30, 2015 unrecognized compensation expense for both awards was $7.6 million.

No additional shares of common stock or options were issued under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan as of June 30, 2015. All shares of our common stock issued to the Easterly Funds as a part of the IPO, the formation transactions and the concurrent private placement will be eligible for future sale following the expiration of the 180-day lock-up period, and certain of such shares held by holders of shares of our common stock and holders of common units in our operating partnership (other than the Company and its affiliates) will have registration rights pursuant to registration rights agreements that we have entered into with those investors. When the restrictions under the lock-up arrangements expire or are waived, the related shares of common stock or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, exercisable for, or repayable with common stock will be available for sale or resale, as the case may be.

Our board of directors declared and paid a dividend for the first quarter of 2015 in the amount of $0.11 per share of common stock and per common unit of the operating partnership, outstanding to stockholders and common unit holders of record as of the close of business on May 18, 2015. Our board of directors also declared and paid a dividend for the first quarter of 2015 for each LTIP unit in an amount equal to 10% of the dividend paid per common unit of our operating partnership.

On August 4, 2015, the board of directors declared a dividend for the second quarter of 2015 in the amount of $0.21 per share of common stock and per common unit of our operating partnership, outstanding to stockholders and common unit holders of record as of the close of business on August 18, 2015. Our board of directors also declared a dividend for the second quarter of 2015 for each LTIP unit in an amount equal to 10% of the dividend paid per common unit of our operating partnership. Such dividends are to be paid on September 3, 2015.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

7. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings or loss per share of common stock (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income or loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted EPS is computed after adjusting the basic EPS computation for the effect of dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the periods presented. Unvested restricted shares and LTIP units are considered participating securities which require the use of the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. The following table sets for the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts):

Level 2		Valuation is based upon observable inputs:

		a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets,

		b) Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in not active markets, or

		c) Model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

Level 3		Valuation is based upon prices or valuation techniques that require assumptions not observable in the market which are significant to the overall fair value measurement. These unobservable inputs reflect the Predecessor’s own estimates about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk). Valuation techniques include the use of discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.

Concentrations Risk	6 Months Ended
Concentrations Risk	Jun. 30, 2015
Risks And Uncertainties [Abstract]
Concentrations Risk	10. Concentrations Risk Concentrations of credit risk arise for the Company when multiple tenants of the Company are engaged in similar business activities, are located in the same geographic region or have similar economic features that impact in a similar manner their ability to meet contractual obligations, including those to the Company. The Company regularly monitors its tenant base to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. As stated in Note 1 above, the Company leases commercial space to the U.S. Government through the GSA or other federal agencies or nongovernmental tenants. For the three months ended June 30, 2015 (unaudited), the GSA and other federal agency accounted for approximately 96% of rental income and non-governmental tenants accounted for the remaining approximately 4%. Eleven of our 31 properties are located in California, accounting for approximately 23% of our total rentable square feet and approximately 31% of our total annualized lease income as of June 30, 2015. To the extent that weak economic or real estate conditions or natural disasters affect California more severely than other areas of the country, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be negatively impacted.
