Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

On December 2, 2021, City Office REIT, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) closed on the sale of the Sorrento Mesa Portfolio (“Sorrento Mesa”) in San Diego, California for a gross sales price of $576.0 million. The Company does not have a material relationship with the buyer of Sorrento Mesa and the disposition is not an affiliated transaction.

The accompanying unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet is presented as of September 30, 2021 and the unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations and unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income are presented for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 and include certain pro forma adjustments to illustrate the estimated effect of the Company’s disposition of Sorrento Mesa. The City Office REIT, Inc. Historical columns have been derived from the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 and from the unaudited interim financial statements as of and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021.

On the unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet, the pro forma adjustments reflect the removal of the disposed property as if the transaction had occurred on September 30, 2021. On the unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, the pro forma adjustments reflect the removal of historical revenues and expenses of the disposed property for the periods presented as if the transaction had occurred on January 1, 2020. The unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations exclude any nonrecurring charges or credits directly attributable to the disposition.

The unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements set forth below are not fact and there can be no assurance that the Company’s results would not have differed significantly from those set forth below if the disposition had actually occurred on January 1, 2020. Accordingly, the unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent, and are not necessarily indicative of, what our actual financial position and results of operations would have been had the disposition of the property occurred on the date indicated, nor are they indicative of our future financial position or results of operations. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such information and the Company makes no representations regarding the information set forth below or the Company’s ultimate performance compared to it.

Pro forma information is intended to provide investors with information about the impact of transactions by showing how specific transactions might have affected historical financial statements, illustrating the scope of the change in the historical financial position and results of operations. This pro forma consolidated information should not be viewed as indicative of the Company’s financial results in the future and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements as filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and on Form 10-Q for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021. The adjustments made to historical financial information give effect to events that are directly attributable to the disposition of the property and are factually supportable. The unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet

(A) On December 2, 2021, the Company closed on the sale of the Sorrento Mesa property for a gross sales price of $576.0 million. The Company received the sales proceeds and removed the carrying value of the disposed Sorrento Mesa property as shown below, with such amounts having been presented as assets held for sale of $118.4 million and liabilities related to assets held for sale of $2.9 million as at September 30, 2021.

Pro forma gain

The pro forma gain is not reflected in the unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations as the effect of the gain is nonrecurring.

The net proceeds of $547.7 million are reflected as an increase to cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash on the unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet. Proceeds from the sale, excluding the proceeds for two of the buildings (5910 Pacific Center Boulevard and 9985 Pacific Heights Boulevard), will be applied in a like-kind exchange so as to qualify for tax-deferred treatment under Section 1031 of the Code (“1031 Exchange”). The two buildings which will not be a part of the 1031 Exchange are Taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”). As such, the net proceeds for these two buildings of $42.4 million will be held in cash and cash equivalents on the unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet and the net proceeds for the remaining properties of $505.3 million will be held as restricted cash on the unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet.

2. Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations and Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income

(AA) These pro forma adjustments remove the actual historical revenue and expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and twelve months ended December 31, 2020 from the operations of the Sorrento Mesa property under the Company’s ownership.
