EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 
Financial Summary 
The Port's total operating revenues for 2014 were $535.0 million, $2.4 million below budget. Excluding
Aeronautical revenues, which are based on cost recovery, other operating revenues were $309.8 million, $10.2
million above the budget and $17.7 million above 2013 actual primarily due to higher revenues from Rental Cars,
Public Parking, Airport Dining and Retail, and Grain; partially offset by lower revenue from Container. Total
operating expenses were $308.0 million, $15.4 million below budget mainly due to delayed hiring and vacant
positions, less expense on outside services, and other budget savings. Operating income before depreciation was
$227.0 million, $12.9 million above budget. Operating income after depreciation was $60.6 million, $11.0 million
over budget. The Port-wide capital spending for 2014 was $183.9 million for the year, $115.3 million below
budget. 
Operating Summary 
At the Airport, we had a record 37.5 million passengers in 2014. Enplanements were 7.7% higher than 2013 while
landed weight was up 7.4% and air cargo was up 9.1%. For the Seaport division, TEU volume was 1.4 million,
down 11.3% from 2013. Grain volume was at 3.6 million metric tons, up 168% from 2013. The 2013 cruise
season included 824 thousand passengers and 179 sailings; passenger counts were 2% favorable to budget, but
down 5% from 2013. For the Real Estate division, occupancy levels at Commercial Properties were at 93%, above 
the 92% target and above the Seattle market average of 92%. Fishermen's Terminal and Maritime Industrial
Center were at 82% occupancy, above the 78% target. Recreational Marinas was at target occupancy of 96%. 
Key Business Events 
The Seattle and Tacoma port commissions approved an interlocal agreement outlining the framework of the 
Seaport Alliance and filed it with the Federal Maritime Commission in December 2014. The Port Commission
approved a revised second development agreement with the City of Des Moines and an option/ground lease
agreement with Panattoni Development Company for the Des Moines Creek Business Park. Sea-Tac Airport is
the first airport in North America certified as reducing carbon emission by a world-wide independent program.
While the Sustainable Airport Master Plan is still in progress, we completed the activity forecast and developed
the terminal expansion concepts. The Port successfully launched the SODO Business Improvement District with
the City of Seattle and SODO businesses and property owners; and we reached agreements with the Muckleshoot
Indian Tribe and the Suquamish Tribe to return to the tribes Native American cultural materials. We also
finalized a project list as part of the joint Freight Access Project and launched the Freight Master Plan with the
City of Seattle, and successfully negotiated updates to the City of Seattle's Shoreline Master Plan. 
Major Capital Projects 
The Commission approved expansion of North Satellite Renovation & Expansion (NSAT) and use of General
Contractor/Construction Manager (GC/CM) project delivery method for NSAT. Construction started for baggage
system renovations and C Concourse vertical circulation improvements. The Commission also approved start of
progressive design build team procurement and use of bridge for South Satellite (SSAT)-IAF connector in
International Arrivals Facility (IAF) program. Runway 16C/34C replacement project was advertised for
construction bids. Terminal 5 Berth Modernization Project completed 30% Design milestone. Terminal 117 and
Terminal 91 clean-up projects were largely completed. We also completed Pier 69 Roof Replacement, Cargo 5
Hardstand, C60/61 baggage system, and new cell phone lot, among other projects. Finally, we reached settlement
of Rental Car Facility contractor claims.

Division Summary 2014 Actuals vs 2014 Budget: 
Net Operating Income for 2014 is $10.0M higher than budget (6.0% favorable) 
o  Operating Revenues is $1.7M higher than budget (0.4% favorable)  primarily due to higher Non-Aero
revenue ($14.4M) driven by strong performance in all business units, particularly rental cars, public
parking, and airport dining & retail. Non-Aero revenue growth is offset by the corresponding increase in
revenue sharing that reduces Aeronautical revenue ($10.9M). 
o  Operating Expenses are $8.3M lower than budget (3.5% favorable)  due to lower baseline expenses
primarily from payroll savings ($3.7M), Outside Services savings ($2.0M), and lower charges from
Corporate and CDD ($5.7M), partially offset by unanticipated capital to expense charges ($3.1M). 
Division Summary 2014 Actuals vs 2013 Actuals: 
2014 Net Operating Income is $12.8M lower than prior year (6.8% lower NOI) 
o  2014 Operating Revenues are $8.0M lower than prior year (1.9% lower)  primarily due to SLOA III
incentive straight-line adjustment ($17.9M) and higher revenue sharing in 2014 that reduces
Aeronautical revenue ($7.1M), partially offset by higher Non-Aero revenue ($19.7M) driven by strong
performance in all business units, particularly rental cars, public parking, and airport dining & retail. 
o  2014 Operating Expenses are $4.7M higher than prior year (2.1% higher)  due to higher baseline
expenses ($10.7M) particularly in payroll and outside services, higher capital to expense charges in 2014
($2.6M), and higher charges from Corporate and CDD ($7.2M) primarily due to a 2014 change in
allocation methodology, partially offset by higher costs in 2013 for airline realignment ($10.8M) and
Lora Lake ERL expense ($4.9M).

Notes: 
Reduction in CPE reflects lower airline costs due to higher revenue sharing (driven by increased non-airline
revenues), and increased enplaned passengers. 
Improved debt service coverage compared to budget reflects both increased cash flow and lower debt service than
budgeted due to refinancing that closed in December 2013.

Aeronautical Budget Variance 
Aeronautical net operating income is $9.9M lower than budget 
o  Aeronautical revenue is $12.7M lower than budget - primarily due to higher revenue sharing from Non-
Aero revenue growth ($10.9M), lower revenue in the commercial area ($1.4M), and prior year revenue
adjustment ($0.9M). 
o  Aeronautical operating expenses are $2.7M lower than budget: 
Baseline expenses - $3.1M lower than budget due to savings from payroll vacancies and deferred
outside services spending, partially offset by higher than anticipated costs for centralized FIS
operations ($0.5M) and Aero share of higher janitorial expense ($0.4M). 
Exceptions to Baseline - $2.7M higher than budget due to capital to expense ($2.4M) and ERL
($0.4M), partially offset by lower than anticipated airline realignment costs ($0.1M).

Aeronautical Year Over Year Changes 
Aeronautical net operating income is $8.1M lower than prior year 
o  Aeronautical revenues in 2014 are $9.9M lower than 2013:

Reduction in the revenue requirement due to operating expense savings ($1.5M) 
Prior year revenue adjustment ($0.9M) 
o  Aeronautical operating expenses in 2014 are $1.8M lower than 2013:
Baseline - $9.4M higher in 2014 due to payroll increases including additional FTE's in 2014, higher
terminal building costs (Aero share $3.7M), centralized FIS management newly implemented in
2014 ($1.2M), increased allocation of Roadway costs ($1.9M), and year-over-year change in reserve
for Litigated Damages ($0.9M).

o  Non-Aeronautical operating expenses in 2014 are $6.5M higher than 2013:
Baseline expenses - $1.3M higher than prior year due to payroll increases including additional FTE's
in 2014, higher terminal building costs (Non-Aero share $1.0M).

II.     AVIATION DIVISION FINANCIAL & PERFORMANCE REPORT 12/31/14 
Exceptions to Baseline - $0.3M lower than prior year due to 2013 costs for Rental Car and Non-Aero
share of ERL terminal projects. 
Charges from other divisions - $5.5M higher than prior year partially due to revision of default
aviation allocation methodology in 2014 to include RCF bus driver FTE's (previously excluded),
which resulted in an increased share of allocated costs to Non-Aero in 2014.

Total Seaport Division Revenues were ($5,281K) unfavorable as a result of an unfavorable variance in
Container revenues ($8,135K) due primarily to the closure of Terminal 5 at the end of July. This was
partially offset by favorable revenue variances in all other business lines.
Total Operating Expenses were $6,314K favorable mainly due to lower than budget spending on the
Terminal 5 Maintenance Dredge project and delays in the Terminal 91 Maintenance Dredge and Terminal 18
IHI Crane Removal projects. In addition, Operating Environmental Remediation Liability expense was
below budget as these types of costs, expected in association with the Terminal 5 Maintenance Dredge
project, were recognized in late 2013.
Net Operating Income for 2014 was $1,033K favorable to budget and $3,410K above 2013 Actual.
Total Capital Spending for 2014 was $10.5 million or 38% of the Approved Annual Budget.
A.    BUSINESS EVENTS
TEU volumes for the Seattle Harbor were down 11.3% in 2014 compared to 2013 levels. 2014 volume was 
1,387,539 TEUs. Full inbound TEUs were down 14.7%, full outbound TEUs were down 13.43, empty
inbound TEUs were down 11.6%, and empty outbound TEUs were up 18.0%. 
Consolidated West Coast Port results for 2014 showed an overall TEU volume increase of 3.1% compared to
volumes in 2013. On a regional basis, LA/Long Beach was up 3.8%, Metro Vancouver/Prince Rupert was
up 5.0%, and Seattle/Tacoma was down (0.8%). 




The Seattle and Tacoma port commissions announced plans to form a Seaport Alliance to unify management
of the two ports' marine cargo terminals and related functions in order to strengthen the Puget Sound
gateway and attract more marine cargo for the region. The two commissions approved an interlocal
agreement outlining the framework of an alliance and filed it with the Federal Maritime Commission. The
interlocal agreement went into effect in December 2014, beginning a four month period of due diligence.

III.    SEAPORT DIVISION FINANCIAL & PERFORMANCE REPORT 12/31/14 
It was announced that the Port of Seattle will receive a $20 million federal grant for the Terminal 46
Modernization project under the Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) grants
program.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Port of Seattle signed an agreement moving forward with a $3
million cost-shared feasibility study to investigate potential deepening alternatives for navigation channels in
the East and West Waterways. 
Eagle Marine Services (EMS), the Port's tenant at Terminal 5, informed the Port that new rotations planned
for the G6 would have ships too large to call at Terminal 5. Commission approved design funding for the
modernization of T-5 for big ships. The EMS termination agreement was approved by the Port's
Commission in July. Under the terms of the agreement, Eagle Marine shifted volume to Terminal 18 and
guaranteed volume of 150,000 lifts and 50 vessel calls per year for 10 years. The Port will also receive
payment guarantee of $9 million a year for 10 years. Terminal 5 closed at the end of July. 
Grain vessels shipped 3.618 million metric tons of grain (yellow soybeans and yellow corn) through
Terminal 86 in 2014. Amount was over two and half times greater than 2013 volumes and 64% favorable to
2014 Budget volume. 
Cruise: 
The 2014 cruise season was strong with a total of 823,780 passengers and 179 sailings. Passenger
counts were 2% favorable to budget, but down 5% from 2013. 
On average, ships sailed at 107% of capacity which exceeded budgeted occupancy of 104%. 
Environmental Services and Planning: 
Terminal 117 and Terminal 91 clean-up projects largely completed. 
$7.9 million in clean-up project costs were recovered from grants and insurance in 2014. 
Since the launch in May, 64 drayage trucks have been replaced with model-year 2007 or newer engines
and an additional 92 trucks have been approved for replacement under the Seaport Truck Scrappage and
Replacements for Air in Puget Sound (ScRAPS) 2 program. 
Washington Ports/tenants "all known available and reasonable treatment" (AKART) study for
stormwater management at marine terminals completed and released for public comment.
Executed Memorandum of Understanding with City of Seattle for 10 year seismic waiver on dock
upgrades (Industrial Development Pilot Project). 
The Terminal 5 industrial stormwater permit was transferred from Eagle Marine Services to the Port. 
The Port of Seattle Stormwater Utility was approved by Commission in 2014 and legally established on 
January 1, 2015.

Seaport Division Revenues were ($5,281K) unfavorable to budget. Key variances are as follows: 
Seaport Lease & Asset Management - unfavorable ($5,761K) 
Containers were ($8,135K) unfavorable. Terminal 5 revenue was unfavorable ($6,389K) due to closure of
the facility at the end of July and lower than budgeted revenue prior to closure. The variance was made up
of a combination of Space and Preferential Use Rent ($7,470K), Crane Rent ($2,268K), Intermodal Revenue
($382K), and Sale of Utilities Surface Water ($228K). Unfavorable amounts were partially offset by
recognition of five months of lease termination fee $3,750K. Terminal 18 revenue was unfavorable
($1,774K) primarily due to no usage of Port MHI cranes and no required minimum annual guarantee for
crane usage ($1,871K) slightly offset by smaller favorable revenue items. Terminals 46 and 30 were
effectively on budget. 
Grain was $1,419K favorable due to volume coming in 64% favorable to budget. 
Seaport Industrial Properties were $955K favorable due to Dockage, Wharfage, and Service and Facilities
revenue at Terminal 18 Bulk terminals coming in $337K favorable due to higher than budgeted petroleum
vessel calls and volume. Space Rental was $516K favorable due to retroactive catch-up of market rate
adjustment at T115 cold storage $174K and higher occupancies at Terminal 104 $128K, Terminal 25 South
$171K and Terminal 10 $123K. Favorable amounts were slightly offset by Crowley not renewing their lease
at Terminal 18 Industrials ($56K). 
Cruise and Maritime Operations - favorable $480K 
Cruise was $288K favorable due to higher passenger counts compared to budget. The overall occupancy
rate of vessels was 107% versus a budget of $104%.
Maritime Operations were $192K favorable primarily due to higher Wharfage revenue tied to the unloading
of fish.

III.    SEAPORT DIVISION FINANCIAL & PERFORMANCE REPORT 12/31/14 
Total Seaport Division Expenses were $6,314K favorable to budget. Key variances are as follows:
Seaport Expenses (excluding Environmental Services) were $3,210K favorable to budget. Major variances
were as follows: 
Salaries & Benefits were $393K favorable due to open positions during the year in Seaport Finance,
Commercial Strategy and Environmental Services as well as due to the transfer of Director of Seaport
Security to a new position in the Aviation Division. 
Utilities were $(212K) unfavorable due to electricity expense at Terminal 5 that is now paid by the Port
($159K) as well as due to overstatement of year-end accrual due to a system problem ($70K). Over
accrual will be corrected prior to final audited results. 
Outside Services were $3,032K favorable due to favorable variances associated with the Terminal 5
Maintenance Dredging $1,130K, Terminal 91 Maintenance Dredging $1,018K, and the Terminal 18 IHI
Crane Removal $1,200K projects. The Terminal 5 project was completed in the 1st quarter, with the
project coming in under budget and a higher percent of the project being attributed to environmental
remediation expense. The Terminal 91 project and the Terminal 18 project have been delayed and are
expected to take place in 2015. Amounts are partially offset by unplanned Watchmen costs at Terminal 5
($98K) and a broker fee in connection with a new lease at Terminal 25 South ($124K). 
Travel & Other Employee Expenses were $215K favorable due to less traveling due to priorities
associated with the Seaport Alliance as well as due to open positions. 
General Expenses were ($112K) unfavorable primarily due to Litigated Injuries & Damages ($286K)
primarily as a result of an unexpected legal action filed by the Puget Soundkeeper Alliance. Amount is
largely offset by favorable variance in Agency Permits $143K due to change in the accounting for street
vacation fees. The fees are now being amortized on a monthly basis rather than being expensed when
paid.
Capital to Expense was ($127K) unfavorable due to expensing of amounts previously capitalized for
work on the Terminal 30 Street Vacation project. Project has been postponed indefinitely so costs no
longer meet capitalization requirements. 
Environmental Services were favorable $462K mainly due to amounts associated with outside services
including permitting costs and the Air Program. More of the permitting work was related to capital projects
than assumed in the budget and the Air Program required less support by outside consultants than anticipated
in the budget. 
Maintenance costs, direct and allocated, were favorable $502K due to a delay in start of work for railroad
track repairs at Terminal 91 and amounts budgeted to support the Seattle Fire Department relocation to Pier
90 and the sale of the West Yard that were not needed. Later than budgeted start of work for under pier
beam and knuckle painting at the Bell Street Cruise Terminal also contributed to the favorable variance as
did other Cruise and Container related projects. Overall favorable variance related to Cruise projects was
$299K and related to Container projects was $111K. 
CDD costs, direct and allocated, were favorable $363K due to lower spending by Central Procurement and
more worked charged to capital by Seaport Project Management and Engineering. Favorable variances were
slightly offset by unexpected work performed by PCS including raising a manhole near Terminal 18. 
Police costs, direct and allocated, were favorable $125K due to lower spending by the Police Department. 
Corporate costs, direct and allocated, were favorable $17K due to lower than anticipated direct charges and
allocations from most Corporate groups including Accounting and Financial Reporting $129K, Executive
$119K, Information and Communication Technology $83K, Commission Office $52, Public Affairs $52K,
and Human Resources $51K. Amounts were partially offset by unfavorable variances for Legal ($360K) and
Portwide Contingency ($136K) relating to lease negotiations, WPPA membership, and the Seaport Alliance. 
Environmental Remediation Liability operating expense was $1,558K favorable due to no spending in the
year for upland dredge disposal and reversal of earlier estimated costs associated with the Terminal 5
maintenance dredge project. 
All other variances net to favorable $77K or .2 % of budget.

III.    SEAPORT DIVISION FINANCIAL & PERFORMANCE REPORT 12/31/14 
NOI before Depreciation was $1,033K favorable to budget.
Depreciation was ($337K) unfavorable, representing a variance of (1.0%). 
NOI after Depreciation was $695K favorable to budget.
Change from 2013 Actual 
Net Operating Income (NOI) before Depreciation for 2014 increased by $3,410K from 2013 due to lower
revenue and lower expenses. 
Revenue decreased by ($3,356K) from the prior year due to lower Container revenue ($6,145K) primarily due to
closure of Terminal 5 and lower usage of cranes and intermodal yard prior to closure ($6,724K) as well as due to
lower usage of tariff cranes at Terminal 18 ($307K). These amounts were partially offset by increase in space
rental due to the increase in the Minimum Annual Guarantee per acre rate $682K. Cruise revenue decreased by
($223K) due to a slight decrease in vessel calls and passengers and Maritime Operations revenue decreased
($247K) primarily because of the lower activity at Terminal 91. Lower revenues in these areas were partially
offset by higher Grain revenue $2,151K resulting from higher volumes in 2014 and higher Seaport Industrial
Properties revenue $1,138K because of higher occupancies and year-over-year rate increases as well as increased
volume from the Terminal 18 Bulk Terminal. 
Expenses, direct and allocated, decreased by a net of ($6,767K) as a result of a decrease in Corporate expenses
($3,299K), CDD expenses ($1,749K) and in Operating Environmental Remediation Liability ($1,626K) and a
slight increase in Seaport originated expenses $345K. Corporate expenses were down primarily due to lower
allocation percentages to the Seaport Division effective with the 2014 Budget. CDD expenses were down due to
the T115 Waterline and Pavement Repair, T5 Maintenance Dredge and Viaduct related projects in 2013 and due
to lower allocation percentages to Seaport effective with the 2014 Budget. Operating Environmental
Remediation Liability expense decreased due to reserves established for the Terminal 5 and Terminal 91
Maintenance Dredge projects in 2013 some of which were reversed in 2014. The slight increase in Seaport
originated expenses was primarily due to higher utility expenses $595K led by surface water (rate increase) and
electricity expense (Port now responsible for Terminal 5 electricity) as well as due to a net increase in expensing
of former capitalized costs $133K resulting from the deferral of the Alaskan Way street vacation project. These
increases were partially offset by lower outside service costs associated with the Terminal 5 Maintenance Dredge 
project ($638K) and increases associated with the Terminal 91 Maintenance Dredge project $122K, a broker fee
for a new lease at Terminal 25 South $124K, and watchmen costs at the vacant Terminal 5 $98K. There was also
a net decrease in Salaries and Benefits ($102) resulting from open positions.

Comments on Key Projects: 
Seaport Division spent 38% of the 2014 Annual Approved Capital Budget.
Projects with significant changes in spending were: 
Terminal 46 
o  Terminal 46 Development  Final phase of the stormwater project is postponed to 2017-2018. Timing
of other projects modified due to Tiger grant. 
o  Terminal 46 Public Access Mitigation at T117 - Construction schedule has been delayed due to
pending resolution with Trustee. 
Contingency Renewal & Replacement  No spending of contingency needed. 
Terminal 5 Berth Modernization - Annual variance reflects accelerated design/permit schedule. 
Terminal 18 Dock Rehabilitation - Delay to 2016 due to reprioritization of projects. 
All Other budget variance of $1,740K is the result of the combination of pushing back the start date of
various projects, no utilization of technology or preliminary planning budgets and delays in the purchase of
fleet assets.

Total Real Estate Division Revenues were $937K or about 3% favorable to budget for the year due to at or
above budget revenue for all Real Estate business groups except for Commercial Properties which has been
impacted by lower occupancies than budgeted at World Trade Center West and Terminal 102 Harbor Marina
Corporate Center. The Conference and Event Center revenue exceeded budget by $825K, a 10% favorable
variance. 
Total Operating Expenses were $910K or 2% favorable due to lower spending than budgeted across the
board except for an unfavorable litigation reserve variance ($835K) related to the Eastside Rail Corridor and
unfavorable Conference and Event Center expense as a result of increased activity (see revenue variance
discussed above). 
Net Operating Income year-to-date for 2014 was $1,847K favorable to budget and ($1,697K) below 2013
Actual.
Capital spending for 2014 came in at $10.9 million or 60% of the Approved Annual Budget amount of $18.1
million.
A.    BUSINESS EVENTS 
Occupancy levels at Commercial Properties were at 93% at the end 2014, which was above the 92% target
for the 2014 Budget and above statistics for the local market of 92%. 
Conference and Event Center activity exceeded budget for the year in both revenue and net income making a
significant comeback from first quarter results. The success is attributed to new marketing staff. 
Recreational marinas averaged 96% moorage occupancy for the year which was at the target of 96% and
matched results achieved in 2013.
Fishermen's Terminal and Maritime Industrial Center averaged 82% moorage occupancy for the year which
was above the target of 78% and above 2013 results of 78%.
In connection with the departure of the Director of Harbor Services, the Real Estate Division was
reorganized. The Harbor Services group was combined in with the Portfolio and Asset Management group
which will enable the water and land sides of key facilities such as Fishermen's Terminal and Shilshole Bay
Marina to report up to a single senior manager position and to be reported on as a single asset. While the
reorganization was initiated and advanced in 2014, it was/will first be reflected in management reports
during the 2015 Operating Budget process and with the 2015 Performance Reports. 
Real Estate Development and Planning 
In June, the Port Commission approved a revised second development agreement with the City of Des
Moines and an option/ground lease agreement with Panattoni Development Company for the Des
Moines Creek Business Park.

IV.    REAL ESTATE DIVISION FINANCIAL & PERFORMANCE REPORT 12/31/14 
In September, the Port Commission approved an Option to Ground Lease Agreement with Credit Lease
Investments, LLC for the Federal Aviation Administration office project on the 28th Avenue South and
South 200th Street site in the City of SeaTac. 
In November, a purchase and sale agreement with TRF Pacific was executed to sell the Tsubota Steel
site. 
Eastside Rail Corridor 
Commission authorized the sale of an approximately 12 mile section of the corridor to Snohomish
County. Sale is scheduled to close in 2015. 
Port is in discussions to sell last remaining, approximately 3 mile section, to the City of Woodinville. 
Washington State Court of Appeals affirmed trial court's dismissal of all substantive claims in Lane
case. 
A group of Eastside property owners filed a lawsuit against the Port disputing the Port's authority to
grant an easement to Puget Sound Energy on the southern section of the Eastside Rail Corridor. The
group is suing to keep Puget Sound Energy from building power lines along the corridor.

Total Real Estate Division Revenues were $937K favorable to budget. Key variances are as follows: 
Harbor Services: favorable $154K 
Recreational Boating was $46K favorable due to the recognition of a $19K reimbursement received from the
City of Seattle related to Bell Harbor Marina major expense projects and favorable to budget Utility Sales
Revenue from Shilshole Bay Marina. 
Fishing and Commercial were $107K favorable primarily due to increased recreational boat moorage at
Fishermen's Terminal as well as favorable revenue from Net Shed Lockers as the major expense work did
not displace as many customers as expected. 
Portfolio Management: favorable $486K 
Commercial Properties were unfavorable ($338K) primarily due to lower occupancies than budgeted for
Harbor Marina Corporate Center at Terminal 102 ($241K) and World Trade Center West ($197K).
Fishermen's Terminal Office & Retail was unfavorable ($79K) due to overstatement of a rental rate
assumption in the budget. Unfavorable amounts were partially offset by favorable space rental revenue from
Bell Street garage $105K due to higher usage as well as receipt of payment relating to a prior period. 
Conference & Event Centers were favorable $825K due to above budget activity at Bell Harbor International
Conference Center $835K which was slightly offset by lower revenue from World Trade Center Seattle
($10K).
Eastside Rail Corridor: favorable $5K 
Eastside Rail Corridor revenue was favorable due to unbudgeted License to Use revenue. 
Real Estate Development and Planning: favorable $239K 
Terminal 91 General Industrial was favorable $239K due to unbudgeted lease revenue related to relocation
of American Seafoods from West Yard including 3 months of retroactive rent relating to 2013, new lease
with Elcon, and due to the delayed departure of First Student which was budgeted for April 2014. 


24

IV.    REAL ESTATE DIVISION FINANCIAL & PERFORMANCE REPORT 12/31/14 
Total Real Estate Division Expenses were $910K favorable to budget. Key variances:
Real Estate Expenses (excluding Maintenance, P69 Facilities, and Conference & Event Centers Expense)
were favorable $339K. Major account variances were as follows: 
Salaries & Benefits were favorable $39K primarily due to departure of Director of Harbor Services and
unfilled project assistant position in Real Estate Development and Planning. Favorable variances were
partially offset by less direct charging by Portfolio Administration staff to the Seaport Division and
above budget overtime worked at recreational marinas. 
Outside Services were favorable $532K primarily due to budgeted broker fees and tenant improvement
costs that were not used in 2014 with others delayed to 2015. The most significant delays relate to
tenant improvement costs associated with World Trade Center West, Terminal 102 and Fishermen's
Terminal Office & Retail. Other favorable variances relate to below budget spending for consulting
services by Real Estate Development and Planning and Portfolio Management Administration. 
Utility Expenses were unfavorable ($141K) due primarily to the unfavorable electricity ($64K), sewer
($48K) and surface water ($45K) variances. Electricity expenses appear to be impacted by higher usage
at Fishermen's Terminal, both waterside and landside, and at Bell Street Retail and Common Areas.
Surface water variance was due to back billing of expenses for the years 2011-2014 at Terminal 91
Uplands and Fishermen's Terminal. 
Travel and Other Employee Expenses were favorable $53K due primarily to registration fees budgeted
by Portfolio Management and Harbor Services that were not used. 
Promotional Expenses were favorable $26K due primarily to below budget spending by the Harbor
Services Group including $14K relating to recreational marinas and $9K relating to the Fishermen's
Terminal Centennial. Certain Centennial related expenses were appropriately charged to other accounts. 
General Expense was unfavorable ($89K) primarily due to costs associated with unexpected repairs and 
outsourcing coffee shop services at World Trade Center West partially offset by reversal of prior year
litigation reserve relating to commercial properties. 
Real Estate Conference & Event Centers were unfavorable ($515K) due to higher operating expense and
higher management fees for Bell Harbor International Conference Center and World Trade Center Seattle
($716K) due to higher activity as is reflected in the related favorable revenue variance. Amount was partially
offset by lower than budgeted use of the capital/expense reserve account resulting in a $127K favorable
variance in Furniture and Equipment Acquisition and General Supplies. There was also a delay in payment
for the Smith Cove event permit $86K which is tied to the delay in passage of the City's Shoreline Master
Use Plan.
Eastside Rail Corridor expenses were ($866K) unfavorable due to a litigation reserve set up for a lawsuit 
filed against the Port by a group of Eastside property owners disputing the Port's authority to grant an
easement to Puget Sound Energy for future high voltage power lines partially offset by reversal of prior year
reserve related to a separate legal action and less than budgeted use of outside consulting services. 
Maintenance expenses were $534K favorable primarily due to lower cost of planned projects, projects
planned as expense but later moved to capital, later start on some projects, and due to projects being
cancelled. Examples of work budgeted as expense but moved to capital included a project to replace siding
on the Downie Building and a project to replace windows on the C15 Building both at Fishermen's
Terminal. Facilities most impacted by underspending were Fishermen's Terminal and Shilshole Bay
Marina. 
Seaport originated expenses were $170K favorable due to lower direct charges and allocations from
Environmental Services and Seaport Finance than budgeted. Each of these variances was the result of
overall lower spending by these groups than budgeted. 
CDD costs, direct and allocated, were favorable $268K primarily due to slightly lower spending on
Fishermen's Terminal Net Shed Compliance project by Port Construction Services. 
Police costs, direct and allocated were favorable $38K due to overall lower spending by Police than
budgeted. 


25

IV.    REAL ESTATE DIVISION FINANCIAL & PERFORMANCE REPORT 12/31/14 
Corporate costs, direct and allocated, were favorable $237K primarily due to lower than anticipated direct
charges and allocations from most Corporate groups including Accounting & Financial Reporting $190K, 
Human Resources $35K, Public Affairs $19K, and Risk Management $24K. Amounts were partially offset
by unfavorable variances related to ICT ($42K) and Internal Audit ($18K). 
Environmental Remediation Liability operating expense was $603K favorable due to no spending on
certain Fishermen's Terminal projects that were expected to have an operating environmental remediation
related component. 
All other variances net to a favorable variance of $2K. 
NOI before Depreciation was $1,847K favorable to budget. 
Depreciation was ($14K) or (0.1%) unfavorable to budget. 
NOI after Depreciation was $1,834K favorable to budget. 
Change from 2013 Actual 
Net Operating Income before Depreciation decreased by ($1,697K) between 2014 and 2013 as a result of higher
revenue $1,451K more than offset by higher expenses $3,148K. 
Revenues increased by $1,451K due to higher revenue from most business groups. Conference and Event Center
revenue increased $999K due to a strong performance in the 2nd through 4th quarters related, in part, to a new
sales team. Both Commercial Fishing and Recreational Marinas had increased revenue due to higher
occupancies and rates and Real Estate Development and Planning benefited from new tenants at Terminal 91
uplands. Commercial Properties' revenue was essentially flat $2K due to offsetting changes. Increases were
driven by new rents at Fishermen's Terminal Office & Retail as a result of the Downie Building reverting to Port
ownership in August 2013, by new tenants at Pier 2 Uplands, and by increased activity at the Bell Street Garage.
Increases were partially offset by lower revenue from World Trade Center West resulting from lower occupancy
and from Terminal 102 Harbor Marina Corporate Center due to on average lower lease rates.
Expenses increased by $3,148K primarily due to a net increase in the litigation reserve $835K for the Eastside
Corridor primarily the result of a new lawsuit filed against the Port by a group of Eastside property owners.
CDD expenses were $950K higher largely driven by the Fishermen's Terminal Net Shed Code Compliance
Improvement project. Conference & Event Center Expenses had a net increase of $901K driven by increased
activity (see revenue change described above). Real Estate Expenses (excluding Conf & Event, Maintenance,
and Facilities) increased by $742K due to higher Utility Expenses, primarily sewer, surface water and electricity
and higher Outside Service expenses for Commercial Properties relating to broker fees, tenant improvements and
space planning. Corporate expenses increased $94K as a result of higher allocations from Accounting due to a
new allocation methodology applied in 2014 partially offset by lower allocations from most other Corporate
groups. Maintenance expenses decreased ($150K) due to less work on Commercial Properties and Fishermen's
Terminal waterside assets partially offset by more work on Shilshole Bay Marina. Expenses from Seaport
groups decreased ($142) primarily due to lower charges related to stormwater initiatives from Environmental
Services.
