Introduction: About Douglas Emmett
Douglas Emmett, Inc. (NYSE: DEI) is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate
investment trust (REIT), and one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily
properties located in targeted submarkets in California and Hawaii. The Company has a consistent and
focused strategy of identifying submarkets that are supply constrained, have high barriers to entry and
exhibit strong economic characteristics such as population and job growth and a diverse economic base.
Douglas Emmett focuses primarily on owning and acquiring a substantial share of top-tier office properties
within these submarkets, which are located near high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities.
The Company focuses primarily on owning and acquiring select multifamily properties in premier locations
within these same submarkets. Its extensive acquisition and operating expertise is directly linked to its
competitive advantage through superior acquisition sourcing, focused leasing programs, active asset and
property management and unsurpassed tenant service. Douglas Emmett is proud to serve entrepreneurial,
service-oriented tenants that comprise our client base, fostering positive tenant relations and ensuring a
comfortable workplace environment for a variety of tenants.
People make the difference, and Douglas Emmett is proud to have kept intact a core group of executives
and managers for many years; most have been with the company ten years or more. The stability within the
company proves invaluable to achieving our long-term goal of remaining an integral fixture in the Los
Angeles and Honolulu commercial and residential real estate markets.
The Company's office and multi-family portfolio is currently located in nine California submarkets, six of
which are located on Los Angeles' Westside - Brentwood, Century City, Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, the
Olympic Corridor and Westwood. Three submarkets are in the San Fernando Valley - Sherman
Oaks/Encino, Warner Center/Woodland Hills, and Burbank. The Company's Hawaii office portfolio is located
in the downtown central business district of Honolulu with multi-family properties in nearby suburban
communities.
