The following information should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our 2022 Annual Report.
OVERVIEW (dollars in thousands, except per share and per square foot data)
We are a real estate investment trust, or REIT, organized underMaryland law. As ofMarch 31, 2023 , our portfolio was comprised of 413 consolidated properties containing approximately 59,983,000 rentable square feet located in 39 states, including 226 buildings, leasable land parcels and easements containing approximately 16,729,000 rentable square feet located on the island ofOahu, Hawaii , and 187 properties containing approximately 43,254,000 rentable square feet located in 38 other states. As ofMarch 31, 2023 , our 413 consolidated properties included 94 properties that we own in a consolidated joint venture in which we own a 61% equity interest, and our consolidated properties were approximately 98.7% leased to 300 different tenants with a weighted average remaining lease term (by annualized rental revenues) of approximately 8.4 years. As ofMarch 31, 2023 , we also owned a 22% equity interest in an unconsolidated joint venture, which owns 18 properties located in 12 states in the mainlandUnited States containing approximately 11,726,000 rentable square feet that were 99% leased with an average remaining lease term (based on annualized rental revenues) of 5.4 years. We define the term annualized rental revenues as used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as the annualized contractual rents as ofMarch 31, 2023 , including straight line rent adjustments and excluding lease value amortization, adjusted for tenant concessions including free rent and amounts reimbursed to tenants, plus estimated recurring expense reimbursements from tenants. Inflationary pressures and rising interest rates inthe United States and globally have given rise to increasing concerns that theU.S. economy may soon enter an economic recession and they have caused disruptions in the financial markets. These conditions have increased our cost of capital and negatively impacted our ability to reduce our leverage. An economic recession, or continued or intensified disruptions in the financial markets, could adversely affect our financial condition and that of our tenants, could adversely impact the ability or willingness of our tenants to renew our leases or pay rent to us, may restrict our access to, and would likely increase our cost of capital, may impact our ability to sell properties and may cause the values of our properties and of our securities to decline.

As shown in the table below, approximately 2.8% of our total leased square feet and 2.9% of our total annualized rental revenues as ofMarch 31, 2023 are included in leases scheduled to expire byDecember 31, 2023 .

(1)Leased square feet is pursuant to existing leases as ofMarch 31, 2023 and includes (i) space being fitted out for occupancy, if any, and (ii) space which is leased but is not occupied or is being offered for sublease by tenants, if any. As ofMarch 31, 2023 , subsidiaries of FedEx and subsidiaries of Amazon leased 22.1% and 7.7% of our total leased square feet, respectively, and represented 30.1% and 6.9% of our total annualized rental revenues, respectively.Mainland Properties . As ofMarch 31, 2023 , ourMainland Properties represented approximately 72.2% of our annualized rental revenues. We generally will seek to renew or extend the terms of leases at ourMainland Properties as their expirations approach. Due to the capital that many of the tenants in ourMainland Properties have invested in these properties and because many of these properties appear to be of strategic importance to the tenants' businesses, we believe that it is likely that these tenants will renew or extend their leases prior to their expirations. If we are unable to extend or renew our leases, it may be time consuming and expensive to relet some of these properties and the terms of any leases we may enter may be less favorable to us than the terms of our existing leases for those properties.Hawaii Properties . As ofMarch 31, 2023 , ourHawaii Properties represented approximately 27.8% of our annualized rental revenues. As ofMarch 31, 2023 , certain of ourHawaii Properties are lands leased for rents that periodically reset based on fair market values, generally every ten years. Revenues from ourHawaii Properties have generally increased under our or our predecessors' ownership as rents under the leases for those properties have been reset or renewed. Lease renewals, lease extensions, new leases and rental rates for ourHawaii Properties in the future will depend on prevailing market conditions when 18 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents these lease renewals, lease extensions, new leases and rental rates are set. As rent reset dates or lease expirations approach at ourHawaii Properties , we generally negotiate with existing or new tenants for new lease terms. If we are unable to reach an agreement with a tenant on a rent reset, ourHawaii Properties' leases typically provide that rent is reset based on an appraisal process. Despite our and our predecessors' prior experience with rent resets, lease extensions and new leases inHawaii , our ability to increase rents when rents reset, leases are extended, or leases expire depends upon market conditions which are beyond our control. Accordingly, we cannot be sure that the historical increases achieved at ourHawaii Properties will continue in the future.
The following chart shows the annualized rental revenues as of
Scheduled Rent Resets at Hawaii Properties (dollars in thousands) Annualized Rental Revenues as of March 31, 2023 Scheduled to Reset 4/1/2023-12/31/2023 $ 1,824 2024 1,273 2025 831 2026 1,307 2027 781 2028 and thereafter 17,202 Total $ 23,218 As ofMarch 31, 2023 ,$12,231 , or 4.6%, of our annualized rental revenues are included in leases scheduled to expire byMarch 31, 2024 and 1.3% of our rentable square feet are currently vacant. Rental rates for which available space may be leased in the future will depend on prevailing market conditions when lease extensions, lease renewals or new leases are negotiated. Whenever we extend, renew or enter new leases for our properties, we intend to seek rents that are equal to or higher than our historical rents for the same properties; however, our ability to maintain or increase the rents for our current properties will depend in large part upon market conditions, which are beyond our control. Tenant Review Process. Our manager, RMR, employs a tenant review process for us. RMR assesses tenants on an individual basis based on various applicable credit criteria. In general, depending on facts and circumstances, RMR evaluates the creditworthiness of a tenant based on information that is provided by the tenant and, in some cases, information that is publicly available or obtained from third party sources. RMR also may use a third party service to monitor the credit ratings of debt securities of our existing tenants whose debt securities are rated by a nationally recognized credit rating agency.
