EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 of Tanger Factory Outlet Centers, Inc. and Tanger Properties Limited Partnership. Unless the context indicates otherwise, the term, Company, refers to Tanger Factory Outlet Centers, Inc. and subsidiaries and the term, Operating Partnership, refers to Tanger Properties Limited Partnership and subsidiaries. The terms "we", "our" and "us" refer to the Company or the Company and the Operating Partnership together, as the text requires.
Tanger Factory Outlet Centers, Inc. and subsidiaries is one of the largest owners and operators of outlet centers in the United States. The Company is a fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") which, through its controlling interest in the Operating Partnership, focuses exclusively on developing, acquiring, owning, operating and managing outlet shopping centers. The outlet centers and other assets are held by, and all of the operations are conducted by, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. Accordingly, the descriptions of the business, employees and properties of the Company are also descriptions of the business, employees and properties of the Operating Partnership.
The Company owns the majority of the units of partnership interest issued by the Operating Partnership through its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Tanger GP Trust and the Tanger LP Trust. The Tanger GP Trust controls the Operating Partnership as its sole general partner. The Tanger LP Trust holds a limited partnership interest. Prior to June 1, 2011, the Tanger family, through its ownership of the Tanger Family Limited Partnership held the remaining units as a limited partner. On June 1, 2011, the Tanger Family Limited Partnership was dissolved, and the units of the Operating Partnership owned by the Tanger Family Limited Partnership were distributed to the individual beneficial owners of the Tanger Family Limited Partnership. Each such individual beneficial owner is now an individual limited partner of the Operating Partnership (collectively the "Family Limited Partners").
As of September 30, 2011, the Company, through its ownership of the GP Trust and LP Trust, owned 21,673,414 units of the Operating Partnership and the Family Limited Partners collectively owned 2,872,973 units. Each unit held by the Family Limited Partners is exchangeable for four of the Company's common shares, subject to certain limitations to preserve the Company's REIT status. Prior to the Company's 2 for 1 splits of its common shares on January 24, 2011 and December 28, 2004, respectively, the exchange ratio was one for one.
Management operates the Company and the Operating Partnership as one enterprise. The management of the Company consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership. These individuals are officers of the Company and employees of the Operating Partnership. The individuals that comprise the Company's Board of Directors are also the same individuals that make up the Tanger GP Trust's Board of Trustees.
We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Company and the Operating Partnership into this single report results in the following benefits:
•
enhancing investors' understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;
•
eliminating duplicative disclosure and providing a more streamlined and readable presentation since a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both the Company and the Operating Partnership; and
•
creating time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

3


There are few differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, which are reflected in the disclosure in this report. We believe it is important to understand the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Company and the Operating Partnership operate as an interrelated consolidated company. As stated above, the Company is a REIT, whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Tanger GP Trust and Tanger LP Trust. As a result, the Company does not conduct business itself, other than issuing public equity from time to time and incurring expenses required to operate as a public company. However, all operating expenses incurred by the Company are reimbursed by the Operating Partnership, thus the only material item on the Company's income statement is its equity in the earnings of the Operating Partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities and the revenues and expenses of the Company and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements, except for immaterial differences related to cash, other assets and accrued liabilities that arise from public company expenses paid by the Company. The Company itself does not hold any indebtedness but does guarantee certain debt of the Operating Partnership, as disclosed in this report. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all the assets of the Company and holds the ownership interests in the Company's consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by the Company, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required through its operations, by the Operating Partnership's incurrence of indebtedness or through the issuance of partnership units.
Noncontrolling interests, shareholder's equity and partners' capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Company and those of the Operating Partnership. The limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership held by the Family Limited Partners are accounted for as partners' capital in the Operating Partnership's financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in the Company's financial statements.
To help investors understand the significant differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, this report presents the following separate sections for each of the Company and the Operating Partnership:
•
consolidated financial statements;
•
the following notes to the consolidated financial statements;
•
Debt;
•
Shareholders' Equity of the Company and Partners' Equity of the Operating Partnership;
•
Share-based compensation of the Company and equity-based compensation of the Operating Partnership;
•
Other Comprehensive Income of the Company and Other Comprehensive Income of the Operating Partnership;
•
Earnings Per Share and Earnings Per Unit and
•
Liquidity and Capital Resources in the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial condition and Results of Operations.
This report also includes separate Item 4. Controls and Procedures sections and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications for each of the Company and the Operating Partnership in order to establish that the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each entity have made the requisite certifications and that the Company and Operating Partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

4


In order to highlight the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, the separate sections in this report for the Company and the Operating Partnership specifically refer to the Company and the Operating Partnership. In the sections that combine disclosure of the Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the Company. Although the Operating Partnership is generally the entity that enters into contracts and joint ventures and holds assets and debt, reference to the Company is appropriate because the business is one enterprise and the Company operates the business through the Operating Partnership.
As the 100% owner of Tanger GP Trust, the general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes. The separate discussions of the Company and the Operating Partnership in this report should be read in conjunction with each other to understand the results of the Company on a consolidated basis and how management operates the Company.

TANGER FACTORY OUTLET CENTERS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
TANGER PROPERTIES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AND SUBSIDIAIRES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Business
Tanger Factory Outlet Centers, Inc. and subsidiaries is one of the largest owners and operators of outlet centers in the United States. We are a fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT, which, through our controlling interest in the Operating Partnership, focuses exclusively on developing, acquiring, owning, operating and managing outlet shopping centers. As of September 30, 2011, we consolidated 36 outlet centers, with a total gross leasable area of approximately 10.7 million square feet. We also operated and had partial ownership interests in 2 unconsolidated outlet centers totaling approximately 948,000 square feet.
Our outlet centers and other assets are held by, and all of our operations are conducted by, Tanger Properties Limited Partnership and subsidiaries. Accordingly, the descriptions of our business, employees and properties are also descriptions of the business, employees and properties of the Operating Partnership. Unless the context indicates otherwise, the term, "Company", refers to Tanger Factory Outlet Centers, Inc. and subsidiaries and the term, "Operating Partnership", refers to Tanger Properties Limited Partnership and subsidiaries. The terms "we", "our" and "us" refer to the Company or the Company and the Operating Partnership together, as the text requires.
The Company owns the majority of the units of partnership interest issued by the Operating Partnership through its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Tanger GP Trust and the Tanger LP Trust. The Tanger GP Trust controls the Operating Partnership as its sole general partner. The Tanger LP Trust holds a limited partnership interest. Through May 31, 2011, the Tanger family, through its ownership of the Tanger Family Limited Partnership held the remaining units as a limited partner. On June 1, 2011, the Tanger Family Limited Partnership was dissolved, and the units of the Operating Partnership owned by the Tanger Family Limited Partnership were distributed to the individual beneficial owners of the Tanger Family Limited Partnership. Each such individual beneficial owner is now an individual limited partner of the Operating Partnership (collectively the "Family Limited Partners").

2. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company's and the Operating Partnership's separate Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The December 31, 2010 balance sheet data in this Form 10-Q was derived from audited financial statements. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC's rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
Investments in real estate joint ventures that we do not control are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. These investments are recorded initially at cost and subsequently adjusted for our equity in the venture's net income (loss), cash contributions, distributions and other adjustments required under the equity method of accounting. These investments are evaluated for impairment when necessary. Control is determined using an evaluation based on accounting standards related to the consolidation of voting interest entities and variable interest entities. For joint ventures that are determined to be variable interest entities, the primary beneficiary consolidates the entity.

14


Certain amounts in the consolidated balances sheet as of December 31, 2010 have been reclassified to conform with the presentations made as of September 30, 2011 related to deferred lease costs and other intangibles, net; deferred debt origination costs, net; and prepaids and other assets. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported total assets.
Certain amounts in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 have been reclassified from operating expenses to abandoned development costs to conform with the presentations made for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported total expenses, income from continuing operations or net income.
3. Development of Rental Properties
Redevelopment at Existing Outlet Centers
During the first quarter of 2011, we completed the redevelopment of our Hilton Head I, SC center and celebrated a grand re-opening on March 31, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the 177,000 square foot center was 96% occupied. In addition, the property features four pad sites, three of which are currently leased.
Commitments to complete construction of our redevelopment and other capital expenditure requirements amounted to approximately $5.5 million at September 30, 2011. Commitments for construction represent only those costs contractually required to be paid by us.
Interest costs capitalized during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 amounted to $64,000 and $583,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 amounted to $302,000 and $1.1 million, respectively.

4. Acquisitions of Rental Property
Jeffersonville, Ohio

On June 28, 2011, we purchased Prime Outlets at Jeffersonville, Ohio, a 410,000 square foot outlet center, from Ohio Factory Stores Partnership, a subsidiary of Simon Property Group, Inc., for a cash price of $134.0 million.  The acquisition was funded by amounts available under our senior, unsecured bridge loan. 

Atlantic City, New Jersey and Ocean City, Maryland

On July 15, 2011, we closed on our admission as a member into three existing entities that results in our acquiring substantially all of the economic interests from Cordish AC-1 Associates, LLC, Cordish AC-2 Associates, LLC and OCF Holdings LLC in Phase I & II of Atlantic City Outlets The Walk (Atlantic City, New Jersey) and Ocean City Factory Outlets (Ocean City, Maryland) for an acquisition price of $183.5 million, consisting of $110.0 million in cash and the assumption of $73.5 million in indebtedness. The acquisition was funded by amounts available under our unsecured lines of credit.

On November 1, 2011, we closed on our admission as a member into Atlantic City Associates Number Three LLC that resulted in our acquiring substantially all of the economic interests in Phase III of Atlantic City Outlets The Walk. The acquisition price of Atlantic City Phase III, subject to a final earnout calculation, is estimated to be $15.9 million, consisting of $5.9 million in cash and the assumption of $10.0 million in indebtedness.

Atlantic City Outlets The Walk is comprised of approximately 491,000 square feet, built in a series of three phases, and is located across from The Boardwalk at the intersections of Atlantic, Baltic, Michigan and Arkansas Avenues. There are approximately 100 outlet stores, many of whom are current tenants at other Tanger Outlet Centers across the United States.

15



Ocean City Factory Outlets is comprised of approximately 200,000 square feet with approximately 40 outlet stores.

Hershey, Pennsylvania

On September 30, 2011, we purchased substantially all of the economic interests in The Outlets at Hershey, a 248,000 square foot outlet center, for an acquisition price of $49.8 million, consisting of approximately $18.4 million in cash and the assumption of $31.4 million of indebtedness. Concurrent with the transaction, we made a $6.2 million loan to the noncontrolling interest holder collateralized by their ownership interest in the property.

There was no contingent consideration associated with these acquisitions.  We incurred approximately $2.5 million in third-party acquisition costs which were expensed as incurred.  The aggregate revenues and net loss from the properties from the acquisition dates through September 30, 2011, were $7.9 million, and $0.2 million, respectively.

Although we do not anticipate any changes in the fair value measurements of the acquisitions, the measurements may be subject to change within 12 months of the business combination date if new facts or circumstances are brought to our attention that were previously unknown but existed as of the business combination date.

5. Investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Joint Ventures
Our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 aggregated $9.4 million and $6.4 million, respectively. We have evaluated the accounting treatment for each of the joint ventures and have concluded based on the current facts and circumstances that the equity method of accounting should be used to account for the individual joint ventures.

Our carrying value of investments in unconsolidated joint ventures differs from our share of the assets reported in the "Summary Balance Sheets – Unconsolidated Joint Ventures" shown below due to adjustments to the book basis, including intercompany profits on sales of services that are capitalized by the unconsolidated joint ventures. Our investments in real estate joint ventures are reduced by 50% of the profits earned for leasing services provided to Wisconsin Dells and by 33.3% of the profits earned for leasing services provided to Deer Park. The differences in basis are amortized over the various useful lives of the related assets.
Deer Park, Long Island, New York
On May 17, 2011, construction mortgage and mezzanine loans to the joint ventures matured. The joint venture did not qualify for the one-year extension options under the loans and therefore began accruing interest expense at a weighted average default interest rate of 9.2% on the outstanding loan balances based on current interest rates. In September 2011, the joint venture partners signed non-binding term sheets with the administrative agent bank of the lender group for a three-year extension on the senior and mezzanine loans from the original maturity date. Upon the signing of the term sheets, the default rate interest was waived and interest at the new stated rates of LIBOR plus 3.50% and LIBOR plus 5.0%, respectively, were recorded from the original maturity date. The joint venture expects to close on the renewal loans during the fourth quarter of 2011. Upon closing, the joint venture will be required to make a $20.0 million paydown on the senior loan, of which one-third or approximately $6.67 million will be funded by the Operating Partnership. As of September 30, 2011, the outstanding principal balances of the senior and mezzanine loans were $252.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively.
In June 2008, the joint venture entered into an interest-only mortgage loan agreement for a warehouse adjacent to the property with an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.85% and an initial maturity of May 17, 2011. The joint venture did not qualify for the one-year extension option under this loan. As of September 30, 2011, the outstanding principal balance under the warehouse mortgage was $2.3 million.

Galveston/Houston, Texas

On June 30, 2011, we announced the formation of a 50/50 joint venture agreement with Simon Property Group, Inc. for the development, construction, leasing and management of a Tanger Outlet Center south of Houston in Texas City, Texas. When completed, the center will feature over 90 brand name and designer outlet stores in the first phase which will contain approximately 350,000 square feet, with room for expansion for a total build out of approximately 470,000 square feet. On July 27, 2011, the joint venture acquired the land underlying the site for approximately $5.6 million. Ground breaking ceremonies were held August 30, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, we have contributed $4.0 million in cash to the joint venture to fund development activities.

National Harbor, Washington, D.C.

On May 23, 2011, we announced the formation of a 50/50 joint venture agreement with The Peterson Companies for the development, management, construction, leasing and management of Tanger Outlets at National Harbor in the Washington, D.C. area. When completed, the 350,000 square foot Tanger Outlets at National Harbor will feature 80 brand name and designer outlet stores.

RioCan Canada

In January 2011, we announced that we entered into a letter of intent with RioCan Real Estate Investment Trust to form an exclusive joint venture for the acquisition, development and leasing of sites across Canada that are suitable for development or redevelopment as outlet shopping centers similar in concept and design to those within our existing U.S. portfolio. Subsequently, in July 2011, we finalized and executed the co-ownership documentation related to the joint venture. Through September 30, 2011, we have contributed approximately $1.4 million to fund pre-development and due diligence costs for various sites. Any projects developed will be co-owned on a 50/50 basis and will be branded as Tanger Outlet Centers. We have agreed to provide leasing and marketing services to the venture and RioCan will provide development and property management services.

Investment and Variable Interest Entity Evaluations
On a periodic basis, we assess whether there are any indicators that the value of our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures may be impaired. An investment is impaired only if management's estimate of the value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investments, and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the fair value of the investment. Our estimates of fair value for each joint venture investment are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates and operating costs of the property. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter our assumptions, the values estimated by us in our impairment analysis may not be realized.
As of September 30, 2011, our net investment in Deer Park is a liability of approximately $82,000 and Deer Park was in default related to the joint venture's loans. Subsequently, negotiations with the administrative agent bank of the lender group have resulted in the signing of non-binding term sheets for a refinance of two of the loans with an associated capital call of $20.0 million expected upon closing.
In accordance with amended guidance related to the consolidation of variable interest entities which became effective January 1, 2010, we performed an analysis of all of our real estate joint ventures to determine whether they would qualify as variable interest entities ("VIE"), and whether the joint venture should be consolidated or accounted for as an equity method investment in an unconsolidated joint venture. As a result of our qualitative assessment, we concluded that Deer Park is a VIE and Wisconsin Dells, Galveston/Houston, National Harbor and RioCan/Canada are not VIEs. Deer Park is considered a VIE because it does not meet the criteria of the members having a sufficient equity investment at risk.

After making the determination that Deer Park was a VIE, we performed an assessment to determine if we would be considered the primary beneficiary and thus be required to consolidate Deer Park's balance sheets and results of operations. This assessment was based upon whether we had the following:

a.
The power to direct the activities of the variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance

b.
The obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity

Based on the provisions of the operating and management agreements of Deer Park, we determined that no one member alone has the power to direct the significant activities that affect the economic performance of Deer Park. We have determined that all three partners share power in the decisions that most significantly impact Deer Park, as well as the financial rights and obligations, and therefore we are not required to consolidate Deer Park.

6. Discontinued Operations
In May 2010, the Company's Board of Directors approved the plan for our management to sell our Commerce I, Georgia center. The majority of the center was sold in July 2010 for net proceeds of approximately $1.4 million. The remaining portion of the center, classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010, was sold in January 2011 for net proceeds of approximately $724,000. During the third quarter of 2010, we recorded an impairment of approximately $111,000 to lower the basis on the remaining portion of the center to its approximate fair value which was based on the actual sales contracts related to the remaining portion of the center.

Our senior, unsecured bridge loan bears interest at a rate of LIBOR + 1.60% and has a maturity date of December 26, 2011. At our discretion we may extend the maturity to June 22, 2012 by exercising each of the two remaining ninety-day extension options.

(2)
Our unsecured lines of credit as of September 30, 2011 bear interest at a rate of LIBOR + 1.90% and expire in November 2013. These lines require a facility fee payment of 0.40% annually based on the total amount of the commitment. The credit spread and facility fee can vary depending on our investment grade rating.
2011 Transactions
On July 18, 2011, the Operating Partnership issued a notice that it would redeem all outstanding senior exchangeable notes on August 18, 2011, the five year anniversary of the issuance of the notes. In response to this notice, all of the remaining noteholders exercised their exchange rights. In total during 2011, bonds in the amount of $7.2 million were exchanged and 136,360 Company common shares were issued to note holders in addition to the principal repayments.
In association with the acquisitions during the third quarter of 2011 described in Note 4, the Operating Partnership assumed mortgage debt in the amount of $112.6 million, including total fair value premiums of $7.7 million.

9. Shareholders' Equity of the Company
The Company's Board of Directors declared a 2 for 1 split of the Company's common shares on January 13, 2011, effective in the form of a share dividend, payable on January 24, 2011. The Company retained the current par value of $0.01 per share on all common shares. All references to the number of shares outstanding, per share amounts and share options data of the Company's common shares have been restated to reflect the effect of the split for all periods presented. Shareholders' equity as of December 31, 2010 reflects the split by reclassifying from additional paid in capital to common shares an amount equal to the par value of the additional shares arising from the split. While the number of Operating Partnership units did not change as a result of the split, each Operating Partnership unit owned by the Family Limited Partners is now exchangeable for four of the Company's common shares. Prior to the 2011 split, the exchange ratio was one unit for two common shares.

Common Share Offering

On July 6, 2011, the Company completed a public offering of 4.6 million common shares at a price of $25.662 per share. The net proceeds to the Company from the offering, after deducting estimated offering expenses, were approximately $117.5 million. Net proceeds from the offering were contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 13,000 general partnership common units and 1,137,000 limited partnership common units. The Operating Partnership used the net proceeds from the offering to repay borrowings under its unsecured lines of credit and for general operating purposes.

Redemption of Senior Exchangeable Notes
As discussed in Note 8, 136,360 Company common shares were issued in connection with the exchange of senior exchangeable notes during 2011.
Exchange of Operating Partnership Units for Company Common Shares
On August 17, 2011, 160,332 Operating Partnership units were exchanged by a Family Limited Partner for 641,328 Company common shares. These shares were registered by a registration statement that became effective on August 12, 2011.

10. Partners' Equity of the Operating Partnership
When the Company issues common shares upon exercise of options or issues restricted share awards, the Operating Partnership issues one corresponding unit to the Company for every four common shares issued. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the ownership interests of the Operating Partnership consisted of the following:

11. Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests relate to the interests in the Operating Partnership owned by Family Limited Partners, as discussed in Note 1, and interests in consolidated partnerships not wholly-owned by the Company or the Operating Partnership. Family Limited Partners are holders of Operating Partnership units that may be exchanged for Company common shares in a ratio of one unit for four Company common shares. The noncontrolling interests in other consolidated partnerships consist of outside equity interests in partnerships that are consolidated with the financial results of the Company and Operating Partnership because the Operating Partnership exercises control over the entities that own the properties.
