NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Basis of Presentation

AvalonBay Communities, Inc. (the "Company," which term, unless the context otherwise requires, refers to AvalonBay Communities, Inc. together with its subsidiaries) is a Maryland corporation that has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Company develops, redevelops, acquires, owns and operates multifamily communities in New England, the New York/New Jersey metro area, the Mid-Atlantic, the Pacific Northwest, and Northern and Southern California, as well as in the Company's expansion regions of Raleigh-Durham and Charlotte, North Carolina, Southeast Florida, Dallas and Austin, Texas, and Denver, Colorado.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company owned or held a direct or indirect ownership interest in 314 apartment communities containing 97,219 apartment homes in 11 states and the District of Columbia, of which 21 communities were under construction. The Company also owned or held a direct or indirect ownership interest in land or rights to land on which the Company expects to develop an additional 34 communities that, if developed as expected, will contain an estimated 9,381 apartment homes.

The interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the "Form 10-K"). The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Management believes the disclosures are adequate to ensure the information presented is not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and eliminations, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for the interim periods, have been included.

Capitalized terms used without definition have meanings provided elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, certain joint venture partnerships, subsidiary partnerships structured as DownREITs, and any variable interest entities that qualify for consolidation. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Noncontrolling Interests

The Company classifies the carrying value of the DownREIT Units as noncontrolling interests, as the units may be redeemed by unitholders on or after April 30, 2026 for cash or common stock at the Company's election. Net income is allocated to the DownREIT Units pro-rata based on the weighted average proportion of DownREIT Units to the weighted average combined total of outstanding common stock, participating securities, and DownREIT Units for the period.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents includes all cash and liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less from the date acquired. Restricted cash includes principal reserve funds that are restricted for the repayment of specified secured financing, amounts the Company has designated for planned 1031 exchange activity and resident security deposits. The majority of the Company's cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are held at major commercial banks.

Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. All outstanding unvested restricted share awards contain rights to non-

forfeitable dividends and participate in undistributed earnings with common stockholders and, accordingly, are considered participating securities that are included in the two-class method of computing basic earnings per common share. Both the unvested restricted shares and other potentially dilutive common shares, and the related impact to earnings, are considered when calculating earnings per common share on a diluted basis. Diluted earnings per common share was computed using the treasury stock method for performance awards, options, participating securities and forward contracts, and using the if-converted method for DownREIT Units. The Company's earnings per common share are determined as follows (dollars in thousands, except per share data):

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company enters into interest rate swap and interest rate cap agreements (collectively, "Hedging Derivatives") for interest rate risk management purposes and in conjunction with certain variable rate secured debt to satisfy lender requirements. The Company does not enter into Hedging Derivatives for trading or other speculative purposes. The Company assesses the effectiveness of qualifying hedges, both at inception and on an ongoing basis. The fair values of Hedging Derivatives that are in an asset position are recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets. The fair values of Hedging Derivatives that are in a liability position are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities. Fair value changes for derivatives that are not in qualifying hedge relationships are reported as a component of interest expense, net. For the Hedging Derivatives that qualify as effective cash flow hedges, the Company records the cumulative changes in the Hedging Derivatives' fair value in accumulated other comprehensive income. Amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified into earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged cash flow. The effective portion of the change in fair value of the Hedging Derivatives that qualify as effective fair value hedges is reported as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the corresponding hedged item. Receipts or payments associated with the gains and losses on the Company’s cash flow hedges of future fixed rate debt issuances are presented as a component of cash flows from financing activities in the period the hedges are terminated and the receipt or payments for the Company’s cash flow hedges of interest on variable rate debt are presented as a component of

Table of Contents

cash flows from operating activities. Payments for derivatives that are not designated in hedging relationships are presented as a component of cash flows from operating activities. See Note 11, “Fair Value,” for further discussion of derivative financial instruments.

Acquisitions of Investments in Real Estate

The Company accounts for real estate acquisitions as either an asset acquisition or a business combination. Under either model, the Company identifies and determines the fair value of any assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. Typical assets acquired and liabilities assumed include land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment, debt and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above or below market leases and in-place leases. The Company utilizes various sources to determine fair value, including its own analysis of recently acquired and existing comparable properties in its portfolio and other market data. Consideration for acquisitions is typically in the form of cash unless otherwise disclosed. For a business combination, the Company records the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the fair value of each respective item. For an asset acquisition, the purchase price is allocated based on the relative fair value of the net assets. The Company expenses all applicable acquisition costs for a business combination and capitalizes all applicable acquisition costs for an asset acquisition. The Company expects that acquisitions of individual operating communities will generally be asset acquisitions.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to amounts in prior years' financial statements and notes to the financial statements to conform to current year presentations as a result of changes in held for sale classification, disposition activity and segment classification.

Leases

The Company is party to leases as both a lessor and a lessee, primarily as follows:

•lessor of residential and commercial space within its apartment communities; and

•lessee under (i) ground leases for land underlying current operating or development communities and certain commercial and parking facilities and (ii) office leases for its corporate headquarters and regional offices.

Lessee Considerations

The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease based on whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, including specified portions of larger assets, for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

The Company’s leases include both fixed and variable lease payments that are based on an index or rate such as the consumer price index (CPI) or percentage rents based on total sales. Variable lease payments are generally not included in the lease liability, but recognized as variable lease expense in the period in which they are incurred.

For leases that have options to extend the term or terminate the lease early, the Company only factored the impact of such options into the lease term if the option was considered reasonably certain to be exercised. The Company determines the discount rate associated with its ground and office leases on a lease-by-lease basis using the Company’s actual borrowing rates as well as indicative market pricing for longer term rates and taking into consideration the remaining term of the lease agreements. For leases that are 12 months or less, the Company elected the practical expedient to not recognize the lease asset and liability.

Table of Contents

Lessor Considerations

The Company's residential and commercial leases at its apartment communities are operating leases. For leases that include rent concessions and/or fixed and determinable rent increases, rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the noncancellable term of the lease, which, for residential leases, is generally one year. Some of the Company’s commercial leases have renewal options which the Company will only include in the lease term if, at the commencement of the lease, it is reasonably certain that the lessee will exercise this option.

For the Company’s leases, which are comprised of a lease component and common area maintenance as a non-lease component, the Company determined that (i) the leases are operating leases, (ii) the lease component is the predominant component and (iii) all components of its operating leases share the same timing and pattern of transfer.

Revenue and Gain Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue for the transfer of goods and services to customers for consideration that the Company expects to receive. The majority of the Company’s revenue is derived from residential and commercial rental and other lease income, which are accounted for as discussed above, under "Leases". The Company's revenue streams that are not accounted for as residential and commercial rental and other lease income include (i) management, development and other fees, (ii) non-lease related revenue and (iii) gains or losses on the sale of real estate.

The following table details the Company’s revenue disaggregated by reportable operating segment, further discussed in Note 8, “Segment Reporting,” for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. Segment information for total revenue excludes real estate assets that were sold from January 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025, or otherwise qualify as held for sale as of September 30, 2025, as described in Note 6, "Real Estate Disposition Activities" (dollars in thousands):

Due to the nature and timing of the Company’s identified revenue streams, there were no material amounts of outstanding or unsatisfied performance obligations as of September 30, 2025.

Uncollectible Lease Revenue Reserves

The Company recorded an aggregate offset to income for uncollectible lease revenue, net of amounts received from government rent relief programs, for its residential and commercial portfolios of $11,531,000 and $11,669,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $35,411,000 and $35,450,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires (i) a tabular rate reconciliation of the reported income tax expense (benefit) from continuing operations into specific categories, (ii) separate disclosure for any reconciling items within certain categories above a quantitative threshold, (iii) disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by federal, state and material jurisdictions and (iv) disclosure of income tax expense from continuing operations disaggregated by federal and state. The new standard will be effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025. The Company does not expect the standard to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires the disaggregation for certain expenses presented on the face of an entity’s income statement in the entity's disclosures. Additionally, it requires the disclosure of selling expenses and descriptions of amounts not separately disaggregated. The new standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2027, and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2028. The Company is assessing the standard and does not expect it to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which updates the accounting for software implementation and development, specifically with respect to cost capitalization.

Table of Contents

The amendments replace the former model which considered prescriptive and sequential software development stages with an approach that is focused on management authorization and probability that the project will be completed and used for its intended purpose. The new standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods. The Company is assessing the standard and does not expect it to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

2. Interest Capitalized

The Company capitalizes interest during the development and redevelopment of real estate assets. Capitalized interest associated with the Company's development or redevelopment activities totaled $13,724,000 and $10,348,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $36,107,000 and $33,146,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

3. Debt

The Company's debt, which consists of unsecured notes, the variable rate term loan (the "Term Loan"), mortgage notes payable, the Credit Facility and Commercial Paper, each as defined below, as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is summarized below. The following amounts and discussion do not include the mortgage notes related to the communities classified as held for sale, if any, as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, as shown in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (dollars in thousands) (see Note 6, "Real Estate Disposition Activities"). The weighted average interest rates in the following table for secured and unsecured notes include costs of financing including debt issuance costs as well as credit enhancement and trustees' fees, the impact of interest rate hedges and mark-to-market adjustments.

(2)Excludes deferred financing costs and debt discount associated with the Credit Facility and Commercial Paper, which are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets and Variable rate unsecured credit facility and commercial paper, net, respectively, on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In April 2025, the Company entered into the Seventh Amended and Restated Revolving Loan Agreement with a syndicate of banks (the "Credit Facility"), amending the prior credit facility, dated September 27, 2022. The amended and restated Credit Facility (i) increased the borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility from $2,250,000,000 to $2,500,000,000, and (ii) extended the term from September 2026 to April 2030. The interest rate that would be applicable to borrowings under the Credit Facility was 4.95% at September 30, 2025 and was composed of (i) the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), applicable to the period of borrowing for a particular draw of funds from the Credit Facility (e.g., one month to maturity, three months to maturity, etc.), plus (ii) the current borrowing spread to SOFR of 0.705% per annum, assuming a daily SOFR borrowing rate. The borrowing spread to SOFR can vary from SOFR plus 0.65% to SOFR plus 1.40% based upon the rating of the Company's unsecured senior notes. There is also an annual facility commitment fee of 0.12% of the borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility, which can vary from 0.10% to 0.30% based upon the rating of the Company's unsecured senior notes. The Credit Facility contains a sustainability-linked pricing component which provides for interest rate margin and commitment fee reductions or increases related to certain environmental sustainability targets, specifically greenhouse gas emission reductions, with the adjustment determined annually. An annual determination under the sustainability-linked pricing component occurred in July 2024, maintaining reductions of approximately 0.02% to the interest rate margin and 0.005% to the commitment fee due to the Company's achievement of sustainability targets. On August 1, 2025, the Company amended the Credit Facility to extend the applicability of its sustainability-linked pricing component. All other terms of the Credit Facility, including its maturity date of April 2030, remain unchanged.

Table of Contents

The Company has an unsecured commercial paper note program (the “Commercial Paper Program”). In April 2025, the Company increased the capacity of the Commercial Paper Program from $500,000,000 to $1,000,000,000. Under the terms of the Commercial Paper Program, the Company may issue unsecured commercial paper notes with maturities of less than one year. The program is backstopped by the Company's commitment to maintain available borrowing capacity under its unsecured credit facility in an amount equal to actual borrowings under the program.

The availability on the Company's Credit Facility as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows (dollars in thousands):


	September 30, 2025		December 31, 2024

(1)In addition, the Company had $55,037 and $45,910 outstanding in additional letters of credit unrelated to the Credit Facility as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The following debt activity occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2025:

•In April 2025, the Company entered into a $450,000,000 Term Loan which matures in April 2029. The Term Loan bears interest at varying levels based on (i) the SOFR applicable to the period of borrowing for a particular draw of funds from the facility, which rate is recalculated at the end of each such period if the Term Loan remains outstanding, (ii) a stated spread over SOFR that can vary from SOFR plus 0.70% to SOFR plus 1.60% per annum based upon the rating of the Company’s unsecured and unsubordinated long-term indebtedness and (iii) a sustainability spread adjustment that can range from (0.02)% to 0.02%. The current borrowing spread to SOFR under the Term Loan is 0.78% per annum, inclusive of a sustainability spread adjustment of (0.02)%. On August 1, 2025, the Company amended the Term Loan to (i) exercise its full accordion option to increase the amount of its Term Loan by $100,000,000 to $550,000,000 and (ii) extend the applicability of its sustainability-linked pricing component. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company drew down the $550,000,000 available under the Term Loan and entered into $550,000,000 notional amount of interest rate swaps to hedge the impact of variability in interest rates on the Term Loan. Including the impact of these swaps and transaction costs, assuming the Term Loan will be fully drawn until maturity and the Company's current borrowing spread to SOFR, the effective interest rate on borrowings under the Term Loan is fixed at 4.44% through maturity.

•In June 2025, the Company repaid $525,000,000 of its 3.45% unsecured notes at par upon maturity.

•In July 2025, the Company issued $400,000,000 principal amount of unsecured notes in a public offering under its existing shelf registration statement for proceeds net of underwriting fees and discounts of approximately $394,888,000, before considering the impact of other offering costs. The notes mature in August 2035 and were issued at a 5.00% interest rate. The effective interest rate on the notes is 5.05%, considering the net proceeds and including the impact of offering costs and hedging activity.

In the aggregate, secured notes payable mature at various dates from March 2027 through July 2066, and are secured by certain apartment communities (with a net carrying value of $1,217,993,000, excluding communities classified as held for sale, as of September 30, 2025).

(1) Included in the transaction to acquire six apartment communities in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

On April 30 2025, the Company acquired the six apartment communities in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area included in the list above, containing 1,844 apartment homes. The consideration was comprised of a cash payment of $193,000,000 and the issuance of 1,060,000 DownREIT Units, which were valued based on the closing price of the Company's common stock on the acquisition date. The DownREIT Units are entitled to receive distributions at the same rate as dividends on a share of the Company’s common stock (pro rated for the time outstanding during the first quarter of issuance). Beginning on April 30, 2026, holders of DownREIT Units may present some or all of their units for redemption, being entitled to receive a cash amount per unit that is related to the then fair market value of the Company’s common stock, except that in lieu of such cash redemption the Company may elect to redeem units in exchange for an equal number of shares of the Company’s common stock.

The Company accounted for its purchases as asset acquisitions and recorded the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, including identifiable intangibles, at their relative fair values based on the purchase price and acquisition costs incurred. The Company uses third-party pricing or internal models for the value of the land, a valuation model for the value of the building, and an internal model to determine the fair value of the remaining real estate assets and in-place leases. Given the heterogeneous nature of multifamily real estate, the fair values for the land, building, real estate assets and in-place leases incorporated significant unobservable inputs and therefore are considered to be Level 3 prices within the fair value hierarchy.

Structured Investment Program

The Company operates a Structured Investment Program (the "SIP"), an investment platform through which the Company provides mezzanine loans or preferred equity to third-party multifamily developers. During the nine months ended September

Table of Contents

30, 2025, the Company entered into two additional commitments, agreeing to provide an investment of up to $48,000,000 in multifamily development projects in California and Southeast Florida. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had nine commitments to fund up to $239,585,000 in the aggregate. The Company's investment commitments have a weighted average rate of return of 11.7% and a weighted average initial maturity date of May 2027. At September 30, 2025, the Company had funded $206,876,000 of these commitments. The Company recognized interest income of $7,068,000 and $4,657,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $19,888,000 and $11,773,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, from the SIP. Interest income and any change in the expected credit loss are included as a component of Structured Investment Program interest income on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

The Company evaluates each SIP commitment to determine the classification as a loan or an investment in a real estate development project. As of September 30, 2025, all of the SIP commitments are classified as loans. The Company includes amounts outstanding under the SIP as a component of prepaid expenses and other assets on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company evaluates the credit risk for each commitment on an ongoing basis, estimating the reserve for credit losses using relevant available information from internal and external sources. Market-based historical credit loss data provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses, with adjustments, if necessary, for differences in current commitment-specific risk characteristics, such as the amount of equity capital provided by a borrower, amount of senior debt secured by the project, nature of the real estate being developed or other factors.

Unconsolidated Investments

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had investments in four unconsolidated entities with real estate holdings, with ownership interests ranging from 20.0% to 28.6%, coupled with other unconsolidated investments including third-party property technology and sustainability focused companies and investment management funds.

In June 2025, the Arts District joint venture, which owns an apartment community in which the Company has an ownership interest of 25%, secured a variable rate loan of up to $173,000,000. The outstanding borrowing is subject to an interest rate cap, which will limit the interest rate to 8.2%, based on the current borrowing spread. The loan matures in July 2028 and has two one-year extension options, subject to certain conditions. The joint venture used the proceeds to repay its outstanding $158,735,000, variable rate construction loan which was scheduled to mature in August 2025. The Company has provided the lender a partial payment guarantee for 25% of the loan's maximum borrowing capacity, on behalf of the venture. Any amounts payable under the 25% loan guarantee by the Company are obligations of the joint venture partners in proportion to their ownership interest, and in the event the Company is obligated to perform under its loan guarantee, its joint venture partner is obligated to reimburse the Company for 75% of amounts paid. As of September 30, 2025, the loan had an outstanding balance of $161,567,000.

In September 2025, the Company acquired its joint venture partner's 50% interest in Avalon Alderwood Place, a 328 apartment home community in Lynnwood, WA for a purchase price of $71,250,000. With the buyout of the joint venture partner's interest, Avalon Alderwood Place is now a wholly owned apartment community and consolidated for financial reporting purposes.

The Company accounts for its unconsolidated investments under the equity method of accounting, net asset value or under the measurement alternative with the carrying amount of the investment adjusted to fair value when there is an observable transaction for the same or similar investment of the same issuer indicating a change in fair value. The significant accounting policies of the unconsolidated investments are consistent with those of the Company in all material respects. Certain of these investments are subject to various buy‑sell provisions or other rights which are customary in real estate joint venture agreements. The Company and its partners in these entities may initiate these provisions to either sell the Company's interest or acquire the interest from the Company's joint venture partner.

Expensed Transaction, Development and Other Pursuit Costs

The Company capitalizes costs associated with its development activities to the basis of land held when future development is probable, or if the Company has either not yet acquired the land or if the project is subject to a leasehold interest, the costs are capitalized as deferred development costs ("Development Rights"). Future development of these Development Rights is dependent upon various factors, including zoning and regulatory approval, rental market conditions, construction costs and the availability of capital. Costs incurred for pursuits for which future development is not yet considered probable are expensed as incurred. If the Company determines a Development Right is no longer probable, the Company recognizes any necessary expense to write down its basis in the Development Right. The Company assesses its portfolio of land held for development as well as for investment for impairment if the intent of the Company changes with respect to either the development of, or the expected holding period for, the land. The Company incurred a charge of $1,392,000 and $1,573,000 for the three months

Table of Contents

ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $8,629,000 and $7,235,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, for expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries, which include development pursuits that were not yet probable of future development at the time incurred, or for pursuits that we determined were no longer probable of being developed. The amounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 include a write-off of $3,668,000 and $1,600,000, respectively, for one development opportunity in each year that the Company determined is no longer probable. These costs are included in expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. These costs can vary greatly, and the costs incurred in any given period may be significantly different in future periods.

Long-Lived Assets Casualty Loss

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized $858,000 and $2,935,000, respectively, for the property damage to certain of the Company's communities, reported as casualty and impairment loss on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The charge for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 relates to damage from a water pipe break at a community in Massachusetts. The charge for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 relates to flooding and resulting water damage at communities in California from extensive rainfall and a fire at a community in New Jersey.

7. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Contingencies

The Company recognizes a loss associated with contingent legal matters when the loss is probable and estimable.

In 2022 and early 2023, the Company was named as a defendant in cases brought by private litigants alleging antitrust violations by RealPage, Inc. and owners and/or operators of multifamily housing which utilize revenue management systems provided by RealPage, Inc. The Company engaged with the plaintiffs' counsel to explain why it believed that these cases were without merit as they pertained to the Company. Following these discussions, the plaintiffs filed a notice of voluntary dismissal in July 2023, which resulted in the Company being dismissed without prejudice from these cases. Subsequently, on November 1, 2023, the District of Columbia filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia against RealPage, Inc. and a number of owners and/or operators of multifamily housing in the District of Columbia, including the Company, alleging that the defendants violated the District of Columbia Antitrust Act by unlawfully agreeing to use RealPage, Inc. revenue management systems and sharing sensitive data (the “D.C. Antitrust Litigation”). On May 29, 2024, the Superior Court granted the Company’s original motion to dismiss this case as it pertains to the Company. On January 9, 2025, the District of Columbia filed an amended complaint in the D.C. Antitrust Litigation, which included the Company as a defendant, and the Company subsequently filed a motion to dismiss the litigation as it pertains to the Company. On April 7, 2025, the Superior Court of the District of Columbia denied the Company's motion to dismiss. On July 11, 2025, the Company filed a motion for judgment on

Table of Contents

the pleadings to dismiss the D.C. Antitrust Litigation as it pertains to the Company, which the court denied on September 23, 2025.

On January 15, 2025, the Office of the Attorney General of the State of Maryland filed a lawsuit similar to the D.C. Antitrust Litigation in the Circuit Court for Prince George’s County, Maryland in which RealPage, Inc. and a number of owners and/or operators of multifamily properties in Maryland, including the Company, have been named and alleged to have violated state antitrust law (the “Maryland Antitrust Litigation”). On February 28, 2025, the Company filed a motion to dismiss.

On April 23, 2025, the Attorney General of the State of New Jersey and the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs filed a lawsuit similar to the D.C. Antitrust Litigation and the Maryland Antitrust Litigation in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. The lawsuit alleges that RealPage, Inc. and a number of owners and/or operators of multifamily properties in New Jersey, including the Company, violated federal and state antitrust laws and the state consumer fraud law (the “New Jersey Antitrust Litigation”) by unlawfully agreeing to use RealPage, Inc. revenue management systems and other related actions. On July 29, 2025, the Company filed a motion to dismiss.

While the Company intends to vigorously defend against the D.C. Antitrust Litigation, the Maryland Antitrust Litigation and the New Jersey Antitrust Litigation, given the early stages of these lawsuits, the Company is unable to predict the outcome or estimate the amount of loss, if any, that may result from the lawsuits.

The Company is involved in various other claims and/or administrative proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. While no assurances can be given, the Company does not currently believe that any of these other outstanding litigation matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

Lease Obligations

The Company owns seven apartment communities, two commercial properties and one development right located on land subject to ground leases expiring between July 2046 and May 2123. The Company has purchase options for all ground leases expiring prior to 2062. The ground leases for six of the seven apartment communities, the two commercial properties and one development right are operating leases, with rental expense recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In addition, the Company is party to 13 leases for its corporate and regional offices with varying terms through 2031, all of which are operating leases.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had total operating lease assets of $121,838,000 and $126,572,000, respectively, and lease obligations of $147,928,000 and $153,333,000, respectively, reported as components of right of use lease assets and lease liabilities, respectively, on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company incurred costs of $3,794,000 and $4,166,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $11,565,000 and $12,543,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to operating leases.

The Company has one apartment community located on land subject to a ground lease and four leases for portions of parking garages adjacent to apartment communities that are finance leases. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had total finance lease assets of $27,756,000 and $28,082,000, respectively, and total finance lease obligations of $19,898,000 and $19,949,000, respectively, reported as components of right of use lease assets and lease liabilities on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

8. Segment Reporting

The Company's reportable operating segments include Same Store, Other Stabilized and Development/Redevelopment. Annually as of January 1, the Company determines which of its communities fall into each of these categories and generally maintains that classification throughout the year for the purpose of reporting segment operations, unless disposition or redevelopment plans regarding a community change. In addition, the Company owns land for future development and has other corporate assets that are not allocated to an operating segment.

The Company's segment disclosures present the measure(s) used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") for assessing each segment's performance. The Company's CODM is comprised of several members of its executive management team, including its Chief Executive Officer and President, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Investment Officer, Chief Operating Officer, and Executive Vice President- Portfolio and Asset Management. The CODM uses net operating income ("NOI") as the primary financial measure for Same Store communities and Other Stabilized communities. NOI is defined by the Company as

Table of Contents

total property revenue less direct property operating expenses (including property taxes), and excluding corporate-level income (including management, development and other fees), property management and other indirect operating expenses, net of corporate income, expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries, interest expense, net, loss on extinguishment of debt, net, general and administrative expense, income from unconsolidated investments, Structured Investment Program interest income, depreciation expense, income tax expense (benefit), casualty and impairment loss, gain on sale of communities, net, other real estate activity and net operating income from real estate assets sold or held for sale. The CODM evaluates the Company's financial performance on a consolidated residential and commercial basis. The commercial results attributable to the non-apartment components of the Company's mixed-use communities and other nonresidential operations represent 1.5% and 1.6% of total NOI for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and 1.6% and 1.7% of total NOI for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Although the Company considers NOI a useful measure of a community's or communities' operating performance, NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income or net cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. NOI excludes a number of income and expense categories as detailed in the reconciliation of NOI to net income and consistent with how the Company's CODM evaluates total NOI.

A reconciliation of NOI to net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 is as follows (dollars in thousands):

The following is a summary of NOI from real estate assets sold or held for sale for the periods presented (dollars in thousands):


	For the three months ended September 30,				For the nine months ended September 30,
	2025		2024		2025		2024
Rental income from real estate assets sold or held for sale	$	11,869	$	27,620	$	51,048	$	99,698
Operating expenses from real estate assets sold or held for sale	(4,882)		(9,215)		(17,312)		(32,564)
Net operating income from real estate assets sold or held for sale	$	6,987	$	18,405	$	33,736	$	67,134

The primary performance measure for communities under development or redevelopment depends on the stage of completion. While under development, management monitors actual construction costs against budgeted costs as well as lease-up pace and rent levels compared to budget.

The following table details the Company's segment information as of the dates specified (dollars in thousands). The segments are classified based on the individual community's status at January 1, 2025. Segment information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 has been adjusted to exclude the real estate assets that were sold from January 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025, or otherwise qualify as held for sale as of September 30, 2025, as described in Note 6, "Real Estate Disposition Activities."

(1)The shares of common stock that may be earned is based on the total shareholder return metrics for the Company's common stock for 43,418 performance awards and financial metrics related to operating performance and leverage metrics of the Company for 35,519 performance awards.

(2)Represents the change in the number of performance awards earned based on performance achievement.

The Company used a Monte Carlo model to assess the compensation cost associated with the portion of the performance awards granted for which achievement will be determined by using total shareholder return measures. The assumptions used are as follows:


						2025
Dividend yield						3.2%
Estimated volatility over the life of the plan (1)						20.4% - 21.6%
Risk free rate						4.00% - 4.01%
Estimated performance award value based on total shareholder return measure						$224.11

__________________________________

(1)Estimated volatility over the life of the plan is using 50% historical volatility and 50% implied volatility.

For the portion of the performance awards granted in 2025 for which achievement will be determined by using financial metrics, the compensation cost was based on an average grant date value of $221.58.

Restricted Stock:


	Restricted stock shares	Weighted average grant date fair value per share
Outstanding at December 31, 2024	182,382	$	182.59

Forfeited	(2,681)	196.89
Outstanding at September 30, 2025	170,880	$	195.59

Total employee stock-based compensation cost recognized in income was $21,394,000 and $20,338,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and total capitalized stock-based compensation cost was $9,720,000 and $9,183,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. At September 30, 2025, there was a total unrecognized compensation cost of $34,649,000 for unvested restricted stock, stock options and performance awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years. The Company reverses any previously recognized compensation cost for forfeitures as they occur.

10. Related Party Arrangements

Unconsolidated Entities

The Company manages unconsolidated real estate entities and provides other real estate related services to third parties, for which it receives asset management, property management, construction, development and redevelopment fee revenue. From these entities, the Company earned fees of $1,870,000 and $1,716,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $5,204,000 and $5,342,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. In addition, the Company had outstanding receivables associated with its property and construction management roles of $1,039,000 and $1,680,000 as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Director Compensation

The Company recorded non-employee director compensation expense relating to restricted stock grants and deferred stock units in the amount of $626,000 and $599,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $1,818,000 and $1,798,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, as a component of general and administrative expense.

11. Fair Value

Financial Instruments Carried at Fair Value

Derivative Financial Instruments

Hedging Derivatives are carried at fair value in the Company's financial statements. The Company minimizes its credit risk on these transactions by dealing with major, creditworthy financial institutions which have an A or better credit rating by the Standard & Poor's Ratings Group or equivalent, and monitors the credit ratings of counterparties and the exposure of the Company to any single entity. The Company believes the likelihood of realizing losses from counterparty nonperformance is remote. The Company determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, such as interest rate, term to maturity and volatility. The Hedging Derivatives credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, which the Company concluded are not significant. As a result, the Company determined that its derivative valuations are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following table summarizes the consolidated derivative positions at September 30, 2025 (dollars in thousands):


	Non-designated Hedges			Cash Flow Hedges
	Interest Rate Caps			Interest Rate Swaps
Notional balance	$	391,846		$	550,000
Weighted average interest rate (1)	4.5		%	N/A
Weighted average capped/swapped interest rate	6.7		%	3.5		%
Earliest maturity date	February 2026			April 2029
Latest maturity date	January 2027			April 2029

____________________________________

(1)For debt hedged by interest rate caps, represents the weighted average interest rate on the hedged debt prior to any impact of the associated interest rate caps.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements with a notional amount of $100,000,000 and $550,000,000, respectively, to reduce the impact of variability in interest rates on the Term Loan entered into in April 2025, which the Company expects to remain outstanding through maturity of the Term Loan.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, in connection with the issuance of the Company's $400,000,000 unsecured notes in July 2025 maturing in August 2035, the Company terminated $200,000,000 of interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges of the interest rate variability on the issuance of the unsecured notes, receiving payments of $4,099,000 in July 2025 which will be recognized over the life of the unsecured notes as a reduction in the effective interest rate. Of the $200,000,000 forward interest rate swap agreements terminated, $100,000,000 were entered into during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The Company has deferred these gains in accumulated other comprehensive income on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, and is recognizing the impact as a component of interest expense, net, over the term of the respective hedged debt.

The Company had certain derivatives not designated as hedges during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, for which fair value changes during each of the respective periods were not material.

The Company anticipates reclassifying approximately $2,060,000 of net hedging gains from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings within the next 12 months as an offset to the hedged item during this period.

Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash, cash equivalent and restricted cash balances are held with various financial institutions within accounts designed to preserve principal. The Company monitors credit ratings of these financial institutions and the concentration of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balances with any one financial institution and believes the likelihood of realizing material losses related to cash, cash equivalent and restricted cash balances is remote. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are carried at their face amounts, which reasonably approximate their fair values and are Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.

Table of Contents

Other Financial Instruments

Rents and other receivables and prepaid expenses, accounts and construction payable and accrued expenses and other liabilities are carried at their face amounts, which reasonably approximate their fair values. The Company determined that its notes receivables approximate fair value, because interest rates, yields and other terms are consistent with interest rates, yields and other terms currently available for similar instruments and are considered to be a Level 2 price within the fair value hierarchy.

Equity Securities

The Company has direct equity investments in third-party property technology and sustainability focused companies. These investments are accounted for using the measurement alternative and are valued at the market price of observable transactions. During the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized unrealized gains of $42,350,000 and $25,261,000, respectively, and unrealized gains of $39,905,000 and $34,822,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to these investments, which was reported as a component of income from unconsolidated investments on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The Company has recorded cumulative fair value adjustments of $74,105,000 for unrealized gains related to equity securities.

Indebtedness

The Company values its fixed rate unsecured notes using quoted market prices, a Level 1 price within the fair value hierarchy. The Company values its mortgage notes payable, the Term Loan and any outstanding amounts under the Credit Facility and Commercial Paper Program using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each instrument. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the instrument, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves. The process also considers credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect the Company's nonperformance risk. The Company has concluded that the value of its mortgage notes payable, Term Loan and any outstanding amounts under the Credit Facility and Commercial Paper Program are Level 2 prices as the majority of the inputs used to value its positions fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

12. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date on which this Form 10-Q was filed, the date on which these financial statements were issued, and identified the items below for discussion.

In October and November 2025 through the date this Form 10-Q was filed, the Company had the following activity:

•In October 2025, the Company reached a construction milestone at Avalon Mission Valley, a development community in San Diego, CA that is subject to a ground lease for which the Company has a completion guaranty. The construction milestone activated the guaranty, obligating the Company to complete construction of the community and certain off-site infrastructure improvements prior to May 2030. The Company expects to complete construction in Q1 2029 for an estimated total capital cost of $302,000,000.

•In October 2025, the Company acquired Avalon Townhome Collection Brier Creek, located in Durham, NC, containing 93 townhomes for a purchase price of $36,500,000.

•In October 2025, the Company terminated the 2020 Stock Repurchase Program and adopted a new stock repurchase program under which the Company may acquire shares of its common stock in open market or negotiated transactions up to an aggregate purchase price of $500,000,000 (the "2025 Stock Repurchase Program"). Purchases of common stock under the 2025 Stock Repurchase Program may occur from time to time at the Company’s discretion. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price, corporate and regulatory requirements, market conditions and other corporate liquidity requirements and priorities. The 2025 Stock Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date and may be suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice. Through the date of this Form 10-Q, the Company repurchased 219,289 shares of common stock at an average price of $174.00 per share, including fees, for a total of $38,157,000 under the 2025 Stock Repurchase Program.

Executive Overview

Business Description

AvalonBay Communities, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” which terms, unless the context otherwise requires, refer to AvalonBay Communities, Inc. together with its subsidiaries), is a Maryland corporation that has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. We develop, redevelop, acquire, own and operate apartment communities in New England, the New York/New Jersey metro area, the Mid-Atlantic, the Pacific Northwest, and Northern and Southern California, as well as in our expansion regions of Raleigh-Durham and Charlotte, North Carolina, Southeast Florida, Dallas and Austin, Texas, and Denver, Colorado. We focus on leading metropolitan areas that we believe are generally characterized by growing employment in high wage sectors of the economy, higher cost of home ownership and a diverse and vibrant quality of life. We believe these market characteristics have offered, and will continue to offer, the opportunity for superior risk-adjusted returns over the long-term on apartment community investments relative to other markets that do not have these characteristics.

Our principal financial goal is to increase long-term shareholder value through the development, redevelopment, acquisition, ownership, operation and asset management and, when appropriate, disposition of apartment communities in our markets. To help meet this goal, we regularly (i) monitor our investment allocation by geographic market and product type, (ii) develop, redevelop and acquire interests in apartment communities in our selected markets, (iii) efficiently operate our communities to maximize resident satisfaction and shareholder return, (iv) selectively sell apartment communities that no longer meet our long term strategy or when opportunities are presented to realize a portion of the value created through our investment and redeploy the proceeds from those sales and (v) maintain a capital structure that we believe is aligned with our business risks and allows us to maintain continuous access to cost-effective capital. We pursue our development, redevelopment, investment and operating activities with the purpose of “Creating a Better Way to Live.”

Third Quarter 2025 Operating Highlights

•Net income attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $381,306,000, an increase of $8,787,000, or 2.4%, from the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to a net increase in unrealized gains on property technology investments, an increase in NOI from communities over the prior year period, and increases in real estate sales and related gains.

•Same Store NOI attributable to our apartment rental operations, including parking and other ancillary residential ("Residential") revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $461,048,000, an increase of $5,189,000, or 1.1%, over the prior year period. The increase over the prior year period was due to an increase in Residential revenue of $15,100,000, or 2.3%, partially offset by an increase in Residential property operating expenses of $9,911,000, or 4.6%.

Third Quarter 2025 Development Highlights

At September 30, 2025, we owned or held a direct or indirect interest in:

•21 wholly-owned communities under construction, which are expected to contain 7,806 apartment homes with a projected total capitalized cost of $3,012,000,000.

Table of Contents

•Land or rights to land on which we expect to develop an additional 34 apartment communities that, if developed as expected, will contain 9,381 apartment homes.

Third Quarter 2025 Real Estate Transactions Highlights

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we had the following activity:

•We acquired three wholly-owned communities containing 584 apartment homes for an aggregate purchase price of $186,950,000.

•We acquired our joint venture partner's 50% interest in Avalon Alderwood Place, a 328 apartment home community in Lynnwood, WA, for a purchase price of $71,250,000. With the buyout of the joint venture partner's interest, Avalon Alderwood Place is now a wholly owned apartment community and consolidated for financial reporting purposes.

•We sold six wholly-owned communities containing 1,594 apartment homes and 20,000 square feet of commercial space, for $585,080,000, for a gain in accordance with GAAP of $180,537,000.

In addition, in October 2025, we acquired Avalon Townhome Collection Brier Creek, located in Durham, NC, containing 93 townhomes for a purchase price of $36,500,000.

Communities Overview

Our real estate investments consist primarily of current operating apartment communities ("Current Communities"), consolidated and unconsolidated communities in various stages of development ("Development" communities and "Unconsolidated Development" communities) and Development Rights (as defined below). Our Current Communities are further classified as Same Store communities, Other Stabilized communities, Redevelopment communities and Unconsolidated communities. While we generally establish the classification of communities on an annual basis, we update the classification of communities during the calendar year to the extent that our plans with regard to the disposition or redevelopment of a community change, or if something occurs that materially impacts the operations of a community such as a casualty loss. The following is a description of each category:

Current Communities are categorized as Same Store, Other Stabilized, Redevelopment, or Unconsolidated according to the following attributes:

•Same Store is composed of consolidated communities where a comparison of operating results from the prior year to the current year is meaningful as these communities were owned and had stabilized occupancy as of the beginning of the prior year period. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, Same Store communities are consolidated for financial reporting purposes, had stabilized occupancy as of January 1, 2024, are not conducting or are not probable to conduct substantial redevelopment activities and are not held for sale as of September 30, 2025 or probable for disposition to unrelated third parties within the current year. A community is considered to have stabilized occupancy at the earlier of (i) attainment of 90% physical occupancy or (ii) the one-year anniversary of completion of development or redevelopment.

•Other Stabilized is composed of completed consolidated communities that we own and that are not Same Store but which have stabilized occupancy, as defined above, as of January 1, 2025, or which were acquired subsequent to January 1, 2024. Other Stabilized excludes communities that are conducting or are probable to conduct substantial redevelopment activities within the current year, as defined below.

•Redevelopment is composed of consolidated communities where substantial redevelopment occurred, is in progress, or is probable to begin during the fiscal year. Redevelopment is considered substantial when (i) capital invested is expected to exceed the lesser of $5,000,000 or 10% of the community's pre-redevelopment basis and (ii) physical occupancy is below or is expected to be below 90% during, or as a result of, the redevelopment activity.

•Unconsolidated is composed of communities that we have an indirect ownership interest in through our investment interest in an unconsolidated joint venture.

Table of Contents

Development is composed of consolidated communities that are either currently under construction, were under construction and were completed during the current year or where construction has been complete for less than one year and that do not have stabilized occupancy. These communities may be partially or fully complete and operating.

Unconsolidated Development is composed of communities that are either currently under construction, or were under construction and were completed during the current year, in which we have an indirect ownership interest through our investment interest in an unconsolidated joint venture. These communities may be partially or fully complete and operating.

Development Rights are development opportunities in the early phase of the development process where we either have an option to acquire land or enter into a leasehold interest, where we are the buyer under a long-term conditional contract to purchase land, where we control the land through a ground lease or own land to develop a new community, or where we are the designated developer in a public-private partnership. We capitalize related pre-development costs incurred in pursuit of new developments for which we currently believe future development is probable.

We currently lease our corporate headquarters located in Arlington, Virginia, as well as our other regional and administrative offices, under operating leases.

As of September 30, 2025, communities that we owned or held a direct or indirect interest in were classified as follows:

Results of Operations

Our results of operations are driven by our operating platform and are primarily affected by both overall and individual geographic market conditions and apartment fundamentals and are reflected in changes in Same Store NOI; NOI derived from acquisitions, development completions and development under construction and in lease-up; loss of NOI related to disposed communities; and capital market and financing activity. A comparison of our operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 is as follows (unaudited, dollars in thousands).

Table of Contents

NOI. We define NOI as total property revenue less direct property operating expenses (including property taxes), and excluding corporate-level income (including management, development and other fees), property management and other indirect operating expenses, net of corporate income, expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries, interest expense, net, loss on extinguishment of debt, net, general and administrative expense, income from unconsolidated investments, Structured Investment Program interest income, depreciation expense, income tax expense (benefit), casualty and impairment loss, gain on sale of communities, net, other real estate activity and net operating income from real estate assets sold or held for sale. Management considers NOI to be an important and appropriate supplemental performance measure to net income because it helps both investors and management to understand the core operations of a community or communities prior to the allocation of any corporate-level property management overhead or financing-related costs. NOI reflects the operating performance of a community and allows for an easier comparison of the operating performance of individual assets or groups of assets. In addition, because prospective buyers of real estate have different financing and overhead structures, with varying marginal impact to overhead as a result of acquiring real estate, NOI is considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful measure for determining the value of a real estate asset or group of assets.

NOI does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, and NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance. NOI should also not be considered an alternative to net cash flow from operating activities, as determined by GAAP, as a measure of liquidity, nor is NOI indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. Residential NOI represents results attributable to our apartment rental operations, including parking and other ancillary residential revenue. Reconciliations of NOI and Residential NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 to net income for each period are as follows (unaudited, dollars in thousands):

The 1.1% increase in our Same Store Residential NOI for the three months ended September 30, 2025 is due to an increase in Residential revenue of $15,100,000, or 2.3%, partially offset by an increase in Residential property operating expenses of $9,911,000, or 4.6%, over the prior year period. The 2.1% increase in our Same Store Residential NOI for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 is due to an increase in Residential revenue of $54,483,000, or 2.7%, partially offset by an increase in Residential property operating expenses of $25,445,000, or 4.1%, over the prior year period.

Rental and other income increased $32,335,000, or 4.4%, and $99,799,000, or 4.6%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, due to an increase in rental revenue from our stabilized operating communities, discussed below.

Consolidated Communities — The weighted average number of occupied apartment homes for consolidated communities increased to 82,437 apartment homes for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 79,593 homes for the prior year period. The weighted average monthly residential revenue per occupied apartment home increased to $3,073 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $3,020 in the prior year period.

Same Store Communities — The following table presents the change in Same Store Residential revenue, including the attribution of the change between average revenue per occupied home and Economic Occupancy (as defined below) for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (unaudited, dollars in thousands).

(1) Economic Occupancy is defined as gross potential revenue less vacancy loss, as a percentage of gross potential revenue. Gross potential revenue is determined by valuing occupied homes at contract rates and vacant homes at market rents. Vacancy loss is determined by valuing vacant units at current market rents. Economic Occupancy considers that apartment homes of different sizes and locations within a community have different economic impacts on a community's gross revenue.

Direct property operating expenses, excluding property taxes, increased $13,269,000, or 8.8%, and $34,538,000, or 8.0%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the

Table of Contents

addition of newly developed and acquired apartment communities as well as increased Residential operating expenses at our Same Store communities as discussed below.

Same Store Residential direct property operating expenses, excluding property taxes, increased $7,199,000, or 5.2%, and $20,173,000, or 5.1%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to increased (i) repairs and maintenance costs, (ii) utility costs, including from our bulk internet offering, the costs for which are more than offset by the associated bulk internet revenue included as a component of rental and other income and (iii) payroll costs primarily from increased employee benefit costs, growth in average salaries and bonus achievement.

Property taxes increased $7,330,000, or 8.9%, and $14,356,000, or 5.9%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the addition of newly developed and acquired apartment communities and increases for our Same Store Residential portfolio, partially offset by decreased property taxes from dispositions.

Same Store Residential property taxes increased $2,712,000, or 3.5%, and $5,272,000, or 2.3%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, due to increased assessments across the portfolio and the expiration of property tax incentive programs primarily at certain of our properties in New York City, partially offset by decreased tax rates and/or successful tax appeals at certain of our properties in the current year period in excess of the prior year period.

Property management and other indirect operating expenses, net of corporate income decreased $2,832,000, or 6.8%, and $1,645,000, or 1.4%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, due to decreased advocacy costs partially offset by increased costs related to investments in technology and process related spend for initiatives to improve future efficiency in services for residents and prospects, as well as higher compensation.

Expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries includes costs incurred for write downs and abandonment of Development Rights and development pursuits not yet considered probable for development, as well as costs related to abandoned acquisition and disposition pursuits, offset by any recoveries of costs incurred. In periods of increased acquisition and pursuit activity, periods of economic downturn or when there is limited access to capital, these costs can be volatile and may vary significantly from year to year. In addition, the timing for potential recoveries will not always align with the timing for expensing an abandoned pursuit. Expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries, was $1,392,000 and $8,629,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $1,573,000 and $7,235,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The amounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 include a write-off of $3,668,000 and $1,600,000, respectively, for one development opportunity in each year that we determined is no longer probable.

Interest expense, net increased $9,641,000, or 17.3%, and $22,462,000, or 13.4%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. This category includes interest costs offset by capitalized interest pertaining to development and redevelopment activity, amortization of premium/discount on debt, interest income and any mark-to-market impact from derivatives not in qualifying hedge relationships. The increases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are primarily due to decreases in interest income compared to the prior year periods due to lower cash amounts invested and lower rates, increased commercial paper outstanding and increased effective interest expense for our unsecured indebtedness. The increases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are partially offset by increased capitalized interest compared to the prior year periods.

General and administrative expense increased $1,939,000, or 9.7%, and $4,799,000, or 8.0%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods primarily due to an increase in legal costs and settlements and higher compensation costs.

Depreciation expense increased $18,249,000, or 8.6%, and $48,675,000, or 7.7%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the addition of newly developed and acquired apartment communities, partially offset by dispositions.

Casualty and impairment loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 was $858,000 and $2,935,000, respectively, which represents property and casualty damage to certain of our communities. The charge for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 relates to damage from a water pipe break at a community in Massachusetts. The charge for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 relates to flooding and resulting water damage at communities in California from extensive rainfall and a fire at a community in New Jersey.

Income from unconsolidated investments increased $17,237,000 and $6,591,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to an increase in unrealized gains on our property technology investments.

Structured Investment Program interest income increased $1,362,000 and $7,338,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the increased principal amount funded in our SIP investments.

Gain on sale of communities, net increased $7,182,000 and $94,622,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The amount of gain realized in a particular period depends on many factors, including the number of communities sold, expected operating performance of the communities and the market conditions in the local area. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we sold six and nine wholly-owned communities and recognized gains of $180,155,000 and $336,081,000, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we sold two and five wholly-owned communities and recognized gains of $172,973,000 and $241,459,000, respectively.

Income Tax Benefit increased $975,000 and $1,538,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the expense in prior year periods, primarily due to the sale of solar tax credits in the current year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures — Reconciliation of FFO and Core FFO

FFO and FFO adjusted for non-core items, or “Core FFO,” as defined below, are generally considered by management to be appropriate supplemental measures of our operating and financial performance.

Consistent with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts® ("Nareit"), we calculate Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Stockholders ("FFO") as net income or loss attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for:

•gains or losses on sales of previously depreciated operating communities;

•cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle;

•impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate assets;

•write-downs of investments in affiliates due to a decrease in the value of depreciable real estate assets held by those affiliates;

•depreciation of real estate assets; and

•similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, including those from a change in control.

FFO can help with the comparison of the operating and financial performance of a real estate company between periods or as compared to different companies because the adjustments such as (i) gains or losses on sales of previously depreciated property or (ii) real estate depreciation may impact comparability as the amount and timing of these or similar items can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates. By further adjusting for items that we do not consider part of our core business operations, Core FFO can help with the comparison of our core operating performance year over year. We believe that, in order to understand our operating results, FFO and Core FFO should be considered in conjunction with net income as presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income included elsewhere in this report.

We calculate Core FFO as FFO, adjusted for:

•joint venture gains (if not adjusted through FFO), non-core costs and promoted interests from partnerships;

•casualty and impairment losses or gains, net on non-depreciable real estate or other investments;

•gains or losses from early extinguishment of consolidated borrowings;

•expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries;

•legal recoveries, settlement proceeds, and certain legal costs;

•property and casualty insurance proceeds;

•gains or losses on sales of assets not subject to depreciation and other investment gains or losses;

•advocacy contributions, representing payments to promote our business interests;

•hedge ineffectiveness or gains or losses from derivatives not designated as hedges for accounting purposes;

•changes to expected credit losses associated with the lending commitments under the SIP;

•severance related costs;

Table of Contents

•executive transition compensation costs;

•net for-sale condominium activity, including gains, marketing, operating and administrative costs and imputed carry cost; and

•income taxes.

FFO and Core FFO do not represent (i) net income in accordance with GAAP, and therefore should not be considered an alternative to net income, which remains the primary measure, as an indication of our performance, or (ii) cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, and therefore should not be considered an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities, as determined by GAAP, as a measure of liquidity. In addition, FFO and Core FFO are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and may not be comparable to FFO and Core FFO as calculated by other REITs.

The following is a reconciliation of net income attributable to common stockholders to FFO attributable to common stockholders and to Core FFO attributable to common stockholders (unaudited, dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

(1)Amounts consist primarily of net unrealized gains on property technology investments.

(2)Reflects changes to expected credit losses associated with our lending commitments primarily under the SIP. The timing and amount of actual losses that will be incurred, if any, is to be determined at the maturity of each respective lending agreement.

(3)The amounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 include a write-off of $3,668,000 and $1,600,000, respectively, for one development opportunity in each year that we determined is no longer probable.

(4)Amounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 consist primarily of the gain on sale of a development right. Amounts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 consist primarily of gains on sale of other non-operating real estate, as well as the imputed carry cost of for-sale residential condominiums at The Park Loggia. We compute this adjustment by multiplying the total capitalized cost of completed and unsold for-sale residential condominiums by the weighted average effective interest rate on our unsecured debt.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We employ a disciplined approach to our liquidity and capital management. When we source capital, we take into account both our view of the most cost-effective alternative available and our desire to maintain a balance sheet that provides us with flexibility. Our principal focus on near-term and intermediate-term liquidity is to ensure we have adequate capital to fund:

•development and redevelopment activity in which we are currently engaged or in which we plan to engage;

•the minimum dividend payments on our common stock required to maintain our REIT qualification under the Code;

•regularly scheduled principal and interest payments and principal payments either at maturity or opportunistically before maturity;

•normal recurring operating and corporate overhead expenses; and

•investment in our operating platform, including strategic investments.

Factors affecting our liquidity and capital resources are our cash flows from operations, financing activities and investing activities (including dispositions) as well as general economic and market conditions. Cash flows from operations are determined by operating activities and factors including but not limited to (i) the number of apartment homes currently owned, (ii) rental rates, (iii) occupancy levels, (iv) uncollectible lease revenue levels or interruptions in collections caused by market conditions (v) operating expenses and (vi) capital expenditures with respect to our communities. The timing and type of capital markets activity in which we engage is affected by changes in the capital markets environment, such as changes in interest rates or the availability of cost-effective capital. Our plans for development, redevelopment, non-routine capital expenditure, acquisition and disposition activity are affected by market conditions and capital availability. We frequently review our liquidity needs, especially in periods with volatile market conditions, as well as the adequacy of cash flows from operations and other expected liquidity sources to meet these needs.

We had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $321,891,000 at September 30, 2025, an increase of $54,815,000 from $267,076,000 at December 31, 2024. The following discussion relates to changes in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash due to operating, investing and financing activities.

A presentation of GAAP based cash flow metrics is as follows (unaudited, dollars in thousands):


	For the nine months ended September 30,
	2025		2024
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	1,270,674	$	1,279,065
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(925,077)	$	(682,589)
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(290,782)	$	(334,959)

•Net cash provided by operating activities increased primarily due to an increase in NOI from our stabilized operating communities as well as from our Development Communities.

•Net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to (i) the investment of $849,799,000 in the development and redevelopment of communities, (ii) acquisition of 12 wholly-owned communities and our joint venture partner's 50% interest in Avalon Alderwood Place for $643,975,000 and (iii) capital expenditures of $186,318,000 for our wholly-owned communities and non-real estate assets. These amounts were partially offset by net proceeds from the disposition of real estate assets of $799,247,000.

•Net cash used in financing activities was primarily due to (i) the payment of cash dividends in the amount of $742,879,000, (ii) repayment of $525,000,000 of our 3.45% coupon unsecured notes at par upon maturity and (iii) the repurchase of 786,797 shares of common stock at an average price of $192.99 per share for a total purchase price including fees of $151,846,000. These amounts were partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of unsecured notes, including the Term Loan, in the amount of $947,488,000 and proceeds from the issuance of commercial paper in the amount of $234,981,000.

Variable Rate Unsecured Credit Facility

In April 2025, we entered into the Seventh Amended and Restated Revolving Loan Agreement with a syndicate of banks (the “Credit Facility”), which replaces our prior credit facility, dated September 27, 2022. The amended and restated Credit Facility (i) increased the borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility from $2,250,000,000 to $2,500,000,000, and (ii) extended the term of the Credit Facility from September 2026 to April 2030. The interest rate that would be applicable to borrowings under the Credit Facility was 4.93% at October 31, 2025 and is composed of (i) the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), applicable to the period of borrowing for a particular draw of funds from the Credit Facility (e.g., one month to maturity, three months to maturity, etc.), plus (ii) the current borrowing spread to SOFR of 0.705% per annum, assuming a daily SOFR borrowing rate. The borrowing spread to SOFR can vary from SOFR plus 0.65% to SOFR plus 1.40% based upon the rating of our unsecured senior notes. There is also an annual facility commitment fee of 0.12% of the borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility, which can vary from 0.10% to 0.30% based upon the rating of our unsecured senior notes. The Credit Facility contains a sustainability-linked pricing component which provides for interest rate margin and commitment fee reductions or increases related to certain environmental sustainability targets, specifically greenhouse gas emission reductions, with the adjustment determined annually. The most recent annual determination under the sustainability-linked pricing component occurred in July 2025, maintaining reductions of approximately 0.02% to the interest rate margin and 0.005% to the commitment fee due to our achievement of sustainability targets.

The availability on the Credit Facility as of October 31, 2025 is as follows (dollars in thousands):


	October 31, 2025

Credit Facility commitment	$	2,500,000
Credit Facility outstanding	—
Commercial paper outstanding	(445,000)
Letters of credit outstanding (1)	(864)
Total Credit Facility available	$	2,054,136

_____________________________________

(1)In addition, we had $54,864 outstanding in additional letters of credit unrelated to the Credit Facility as of October 31, 2025.

Commercial Paper Program

We have a Commercial Paper Program in which we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes with maturities of less than one year. In April 2025, we increased the maximum amount of commercial paper notes that can be outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program from $500,000,000 to $1,000,000,000. The Commercial Paper Program is backstopped by our commitment to maintain available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility in an amount equal to actual borrowings under the Commercial Paper Program. As of October 31, 2025, we had $445,000,000 of borrowings outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program.

Secured and Unsecured Borrowings - Financial Covenants and Early Repayment Provisions

We are subject to financial covenants contained in the Credit Facility, the Term Loan and the indentures under which our unsecured notes were issued. The principal financial covenants include the following:

•limitations on the amount of total and secured debt in relation to our overall capital structure;

•limitations on the amount of our unsecured debt relative to the undepreciated basis of real estate assets that are not encumbered by property-specific financing; and

•minimum levels of debt service coverage.

We were in compliance with these covenants at September 30, 2025.

In addition, some of our secured and unsecured borrowings include yield maintenance, defeasance or prepayment penalty provisions, which could result in us incurring an additional charge in the event of a full or partial prepayment of outstanding principal before the scheduled maturity. These provisions in our borrowings are generally consistent with other similar types of debt instruments issued during the same time period in which our borrowings were issued.

Continuous Equity Offering Program

Under our continuous equity program (the "CEP"), we may sell (and/or enter into forward sale agreements for the sale of) up to $1,000,000,000 of our common stock from time to time. During 2024, we entered into forward contracts under the CEP to sell 367,113 shares of common stock for approximate proceeds, net of fees, of $80,687,000, based on the gross weighted average price of $223.27 per share, with settlement of the forward contracts expected to occur on one or more dates not later than December 31, 2025. The final proceeds will be determined on the date(s) of settlement and are subject to certain customary adjustments for dividends and a daily interest factor. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and through October 31, 2025, we did not have any sales under the CEP. As of October 31, 2025, we had $623,997,000 remaining authorized for issuance under this program, after consideration of outstanding forward contracts.

Forward Equity Offering

In addition to the CEP, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, we entered into forward contracts to sell 3,680,000 shares of common stock at a discount to the closing price of $226.52 per share for approximate net proceeds of $808,606,000. The final proceeds will be determined on the date(s) of settlement and are subject to certain customary adjustments for dividends and a daily interest factor. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we amended each of the forward contracts related to the September 2024 Equity Offering to extend the settlement of the forward contracts to a date no later than December 31, 2026.

Future Financing and Capital Needs - Debt Maturities and Material Obligations

One of our principal long-term liquidity needs is the repayment of long-term debt at maturity. For both our unsecured and secured notes, a portion of the principal of these notes may be repaid prior to maturity. Early retirement of our unsecured or secured notes could result in gains or losses on extinguishment. We may use capital from a variety of sources to repay debt at maturity, including proceeds received from the dispositions of our operating communities or other direct and indirect investments in real estate and cash from operations. If we do not have funds on hand sufficient to repay our indebtedness as it becomes due, it will be necessary for us to refinance or otherwise provide liquidity to satisfy the debt at maturity. This refinancing may be accomplished by uncollateralized private or public debt offerings, equity issuances, including through the settlement of the outstanding equity forwards, additional debt financing that is secured by mortgages on individual communities or groups of communities or borrowings under our Credit Facility, Term Loan or Commercial Paper Program. In addition, to the extent we have amounts outstanding under the Commercial Paper Program, we are obligated to repay the short-term indebtedness at maturity through either current cash on hand or by incurring other indebtedness, including by way of borrowing under our Credit Facility or Term Loan. Although we believe we will have the capacity to meet our currently anticipated liquidity needs, we cannot assure you that capital from additional debt financing or debt or equity offerings will be available or, if available, that they will be on terms we consider satisfactory.

The following debt and derivative activity occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 through the date of this Form 10-Q:

•In April 2025, we entered into a $450,000,000 Term Loan which matures in April 2029. The Term Loan bears interest at varying levels based on (i) the SOFR applicable to the period of borrowing for a particular draw of funds from the facility, which rate is recalculated at the end of each such period if the Term Loan remains outstanding, (ii) a stated spread over SOFR that can vary from SOFR plus 0.70% to SOFR plus 1.60% per annum based upon the rating of our unsecured and unsubordinated long-term indebtedness and (iii) a sustainability spread adjustment that can range from (0.02)% to 0.02%. The current borrowing spread to SOFR under the Term Loan is 0.78% per annum, inclusive of a sustainability spread adjustment of (0.02)%. On August 1, 2025, we amended the Term Loan to (i) exercise our full accordion option to increase the amount of the Term Loan by $100,000,000 to $550,000,000 and (ii) extend the applicability of the sustainability-linked pricing component. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we drew down the full amount of the Term Loan and entered into $550,000,000 notional amount of interest rate swaps to hedge the impact of variability in interest rates on the Term Loan. The swaps are coterminous with the Term Loan, maturing in April 2029. Including the impact of these swaps and transaction costs, assuming the Term Loan will be fully drawn until maturity and our current borrowing spread to SOFR, the effective interest rate on borrowings under the Term Loan is fixed at 4.44% through maturity.

•In June 2025, we repaid $525,000,000 of our 3.45% coupon unsecured notes at par upon maturity.

•In July 2025, we issued $400,000,000 principal amount of unsecured notes in a public offering under our existing shelf registration statement for proceeds net of underwriting fees and discounts of approximately $394,888,000, before considering the impact of other offering costs. The notes mature in August 2035 and were issued at a 5.00% interest rate. The effective interest rate of the notes is 5.05%, considering the net proceeds and including the impact of offering costs and hedging activity. In connection with the issuance of our $400,000,000 unsecured notes, we terminated $200,000,000 of interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges of the interest rate variability on the issuance of the unsecured notes, receiving payments of $4,099,000 in July 2025 which will be recognized over the life of the unsecured notes as a reduction in the effective interest rate. Of the $200,000,000 forward interest rate swap agreements terminated, $100,000,000 were entered into during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

•On August 1, 2025, we amended the Credit Facility to extend the applicability of the sustainability-linked pricing component, which provides for interest rate margin and commitment fee reductions or increases related to certain environmental sustainability targets. The reductions or increases can range from (0.02)% to 0.02% to the interest rate margin and (0.005)% to 0.005% to the commitment fee. All other terms of the Credit Facility, including its maturity date of April 2030, remain unchanged.

The following table details our consolidated debt obligations, including the effective interest rate and contractual maturity dates, and principal payments for periodic amortization and maturities for the next five years, excluding our Credit Facility and Commercial Paper Program and amounts outstanding related to communities classified as held for sale, at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (dollars in thousands). We are not directly or indirectly (as borrower or guarantor) obligated in any material respect to pay principal or interest on the indebtedness of any unconsolidated entities in which we have an equity or other interest other than as disclosed related to the AVA Arts District loan (see "Unconsolidated Operating Communities" for further discussion of the AVA Arts District loan).
