Current wording

The following is a discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of LXP Industrial Trust for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and significant factors that could affect our prospective financial condition and results of operations. This discussion should be read together with our accompanying consolidated financial statements included herein and notes thereto.

Previous wording

•We entered into new leases and lease extensions encompassing 4.5 million square feet. The average fixed rent on new and extended leases was $5.89 per square foot compared to the average fixed rent on these leases before extension of $4.22 per square foot excluding tenant reimbursements as part of the expiring rent in one lease and one lease with a fixed-rate renewal. The weighted-average cost of tenant improvements and lease commissions was $2.52 per square foot for new first-generation leases and $3.39 per square foot for second-generation new and extended leases.

•Entered into new leases and lease extensions encompassing 4.9 million square feet. The average fixed rent on new and extended leases was $5.99 per square foot, compared to the average fixed rent on these leases before extension of $5.23 per square foot. The weighted-average cost of tenant improvements and lease commissions was $1.22 per square foot for new and extended leases.

Previous wording

In addition, we may continue to selectively recycle capital out of our target markets over time and as opportunities arise, and use the proceeds to reduce indebtedness and invest in our target markets. We do not expect capital recycling to have a material dilutive impact on earnings.

Current wording

In addition, we may continue to selectively recycle capital out of our non-target markets over time and, as opportunities arise, use the proceeds to reduce indebtedness and invest in our target markets, primarily through our development activities. We do not expect capital recycling to have a material dilutive impact on earnings.

Previous wording

There continues to be competition for the acquisition of industrial properties, specifically warehouse and distribution facilities. While we believe the industrial market will continue to grow, increased costs from international trade policy may cause some tenants to reevaluate expansion and growth plans. We continue to prioritize build-to-suit projects over (1) acquisitions of leased properties due to the relatively higher yield that build-to-suit projects generally provide and (2) speculative development due to the inherent leasing risk.

Current wording

There continues to be competition for the acquisition of industrial properties, specifically warehouse and distribution facilities. While we believe the industrial market will continue to grow, increased costs from international trade policy may continue to cause some tenants to reevaluate expansion and growth plans. As construction starts were reduced in recent years and supply in our markets has decreased, we expect to prioritize development activities, including build-to-suit projects, over acquisitions of leased properties due to the relatively higher yield that development activities generally provide.

Previous wording

Our industrial investment underwriting focuses more on real estate characteristics such as location and related demographic and local economic trends than it does on tenant credit. This has allowed us to acquire certain short-term leased or vacant warehouse and distribution facilities, which may be acquired with greater total return potential than long-term leased warehouse and distribution facilities and allow for a value-add strategy through the lease renewal, lease up or a multi-tenanting process.

Development. Our development activities have been focused on build-to-suit projects, speculative development and purchasing newly-developed properties with vacancy. In 2025, we expect to continue to focus our development activities on build-to-suit projects and limit the amount of speculative development to markets where there is sufficient tenant demand. Construction starts in our target markets continue to be down compared to construction starts in previous years. We believe this will ultimately result in lower supply in the future if, and when, demand increases and may provide opportunity for more development investment.

Current wording

Development. Our development activities have been focused on build-to-suit projects, speculative development and purchasing newly-developed properties with vacancy. In 2026, we expect to continue to focus our development activities on build-to-suit projects and selective speculative development in markets with favorable industrial real estate fundamentals. Due to low construction starts in our target markets in recent years, we believe supply has decreased and demand is increasing, which may provide opportunity for more development investment.

Previous wording

General. Re-leasing properties that are currently vacant or become vacant as leases expire at favorable effective rates is a primary area of focus for our asset management strategy. Renewals of industrial leases, particularly for warehouse and distribution facilities, are generally dependent on location and occupancy alternatives for our tenants.

Current wording

General. Re-leasing properties that are currently vacant or become vacant as leases expire at favorable effective rates is a primary area of focus for our asset management strategy. Renewals of industrial leases, particularly for warehouse and distribution facilities, are generally dependent on location and occupancy alternatives for our tenants. Uncertainty from international trade policy has caused some tenants to reevaluate their space needs and consolidate into other spaces or move to facilities with lower rental rates.

Previous wording

A majority of our leases require tenants to pay operating expenses, including maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses. However, certain of our leases provide for some level of landlord responsibility for capital repairs and replacements, the cost of which is generally factored into the rental rate. Our motivation to release vacant space requires us to meet market demands with respect to rental rates, tenant concessions and landlord responsibilities. Developers may be similarly motivated when signing leases with tenants due to the significant competition in the industrial space. As a result, the obligations of our property owner subsidiaries on new leases and newly renewed or extended leases may increase to include, among other items, some form of responsibility for operating expenses and/or capital repairs and replacements.

Inherent Growth. As of December 31, 2025, 99.3% of our leases had scheduled rent increases. The average escalation rate of these leases based on the next rent step was 2.8% as of December 31, 2025.

Previous wording

As of December 31, 2024, we had 3.7 million square feet of vacancy in the consolidated portfolio, which upon lease up is expected to add revenue to the portfolio and decrease operating expenses. In addition, as of December 31, 2024, approximately 65% of our ABR was from leases scheduled to expire during 2025 through 2030. We believe a portion of these leases have below-market rents and we expect to mark the expiring rents to market, which should further increase our revenues.

Current wording

As of December 31, 2025, we had 1.5 million square feet of vacancy in the consolidated portfolio, which upon lease up is expected to add revenue to the portfolio and decrease operating expenses. In addition, as of December 31, 2025, approximately 73.8% of our ABR was from leases scheduled to expire during 2026 through 2031.

Previous wording

Tenant Credit. We continue to monitor the credit of tenants of properties in which we have an interest by (1) subscribing to rating agency information, so that we can monitor changes in the ratings of our rated tenants, (2) reviewing financial statements that are publicly available or that are required to be delivered to us under the applicable lease, (3) monitoring news reports regarding our tenants and their respective businesses, (4) monitoring the timeliness of rent collections and (5) meeting with our tenants.

Previous wording

We did not incur any impairment charges during the year ended December 31, 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we incurred impairment charges of $16.5 million on certain of our assets due to each asset's carrying value being below its estimated fair value. Most of the impairment charges in 2023 were incurred on assets due to anticipated shortened holding periods. We cannot estimate if we will incur, or the amount of, future impairment charges on our assets. See Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors”, of this Annual Report.

Current wording

We did not incur any impairment charges during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Previous wording

We use considerable judgement in our estimates of cash flow projections, discount, capitalization and interest rates, fair market lease rates, carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods and costs to execute similar leases. While our methodology for purchase price allocation did not change during the year ended December 31, 2024, the real estate market is fluid and our assumptions are based on information currently available in the market at the time of acquisition. Significant increases or decreases in these key estimates, particularly with regards to cash flow projections and discount and capitalization rates, would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement of the real estate assets being acquired.

Revenue Recognition. We enter into agreements with tenants that convey the right to control the use of identified space at our properties in exchange for rental revenue. These agreements meet the criteria for recognition as leases under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases. Lease classification tests require significant estimates and judgments by management in its application. Upon lease commencement or lease modification, we assess the lease classification to determine whether the lease should be classified as a direct financing, sales-type or operating lease. The determination of lease classification requires the calculation of the rate implicit in the lease, which is driven by significant estimates, including the estimation of both the value assigned to the property components on the lease commencement date or upon acquisition and the estimation of the unguaranteed residual value of such components at the end of the lease term. The determination of the lease term also requires judgement because the probability of purchase options and renewals have to be analyzed to conclude if they are reasonably certain of being exercised. If the lease component is determined to be a direct financing or sales-type lease, revenue is recognized over the life of the lease using the rate implicit in the lease.

Impairment of Real Estate. We record impairments of our real estate assets classified as held for use when triggering events dictate that an asset may be impaired. An impairment is recorded when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the sum of its undiscounted future operating and residual cash flows. The impairment is the difference between estimated fair value of the asset and the carrying amount. We record impairments of our real estate assets classified as held for sale at the lower of the carrying amount or estimated fair value using the estimated or contracted sales price less costs to sell. Any real estate assets recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis as a result of our impairment analysis are valued using unobservable local and national industry market data such as comparable sales, appraisals, brokers’ opinions of value and/or terms of definitive sales contracts. Additionally, the analysis includes considerable judgement in our estimates of hold periods, projected cash flows and discount and capitalization rates. Significant increases or decreases in any of these inputs, particularly with regards to cash flow projections and discount and capitalization rates, would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement of the real estate assets being assessed.

Previous wording

Cash flows from operations as reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows totaled $211.2 million for 2024 and $209.4 million for 2023. The increase was primarily related to increased rental revenue related to additional sales-type lease income, lease extensions and placing development properties into service, partially offset by a decrease in cash flow due to property sales and increased interest expense. The underlying drivers that impact our working capital, and therefore cash flows from operations, are the timing of collection of rents, including reimbursements from tenants, payment of interest on debt and payment of operating and general and administrative costs. We believe the net-lease structure of the leases encumbering a majority of the properties in which we have an interest mitigates the risks of the timing of cash flows from operations since the payment and timing of operating costs related to the properties are generally borne directly by the tenant. The collection and timing of tenant rents are closely monitored by management as part of our cash management program.

Current wording

Cash flows from operations as reported on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows totaled $188.7 million for 2025 and $211.2 million for 2024. The decrease was related primarily to a decrease in cash flow due to property sales and vacancies, partially offset by rental revenue related to acquired properties, lease extensions and placing development properties into service during 2024 and the receipt of a lease termination fee.

Previous wording

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities totaled $(395.0) million in 2024 and $119.0 million in 2023. Cash used in financing activities in 2024 was primarily related to the repayment of the 2024 Senior Notes, the purchase of a noncontrolling interest and dividend and debt service payments, offset by contributions from noncontrolling interests. Cash provided by financing activities in 2023 was primarily related to the receipt of proceeds from the issuance of the 2028 Senior Notes and borrowings on the credit facility, offset by the repurchase of common shares to settle tax obligations, the purchase of a noncontrolling interest and dividend and debt service payments.

Current wording

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $418.3 million in 2025 and $395.0 million in 2024. Cash used in financing activities in 2025 was related primarily to the partial repayment of the Term Loan, repurchase of the Trust Preferred Securities, a partial repurchase of the 6.750% Senior Notes due 2028, repurchase of common shares, distributions to noncontrolling interests, dividends, and debt service payments, offset by contributions from noncontrolling interests.

Previous wording

We expect to continue to access debt and equity markets in the future to implement our business strategy and to fund future growth when market conditions are favorable. However, the volatility in the capital markets primarily resulting from the effects of rising interest rates and rising inflation have negatively affect our ability to access these capital markets.

Property Specific Debt. As of December 31, 2024, our secured debt decreased to approximately $55.5 million at December 31, 2024 compared to $60.9 million at December 31, 2023. Our property owner subsidiaries do not have mortgage maturities with balloon payments due until 2031. With respect to mortgages encumbering properties where the expected lease rental revenues are sufficient to provide an estimated property value in excess of the mortgage balance, we believe our property owner subsidiaries have sufficient sources of liquidity to meet these obligations through future cash flows from operations, the credit markets and, if determined appropriate by us, a capital contribution from us from either cash on hand ($101.8 million at December 31, 2024), property sale proceeds or borrowing capacity on our primary credit facility ($600.0 million as of December 31, 2024, subject to covenant compliance).

The real estate investments owned by our institutional joint ventures are generally financed with non-recourse debt. Non-recourse debt is generally defined as debt whereby the lenders' sole recourse with respect to borrower defaults is limited to the value of the assets collateralized by the debt. The lender generally does not have recourse against any other assets owned by the borrower or any of the members or partners of the borrower, except for certain specified exceptions listed in the particular loan documents. These exceptions generally relate to “bad boy” acts, including fraud, prohibited transfers and breaches of material representations, and environmental matters. We have guaranteed such obligations for certain of our non-consolidated entities with respect to $432.3 million of such non-recourse debt. We believe the likelihood of making any payments under such guaranties is remote and we generally have an agreement from each partner to reimburse us for its proportionate share of any liability related to a guarantee trigger unless such trigger is caused solely by us.

The decrease in net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interest holders of $7.2 million was primarily due to noncontrolling interests' share of a gain on sale of a property of $4.7 million in 2023 and an increase in noncontrolling interests' share of operating losses related to development projects placed into service vacant in 2024.

Current wording

The increase in net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interest holders of $6.1 million was primarily related to the recognition of the noncontrolling interests' share of gains on the sale of real estate of two vacant development properties in 2025.

Previous wording

Same-store net operating income, or NOI, which is a non-GAAP measure, represents the NOI for consolidated properties that were owned, stabilized and included in our portfolio for the entirety of the two comparable reporting periods. We define NOI as operating revenues (rental income (less GAAP rent adjustments, non-cash income and purchase option income related to sales-type leases and lease termination income, net), and other property income) less property operating expenses. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating same-store NOI, and accordingly same-store NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. Management believes that same-store NOI is a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance because same-store NOI excludes the change in NOI from acquired and disposed of properties and it highlights operating trends such as occupancy levels, rental rates and operating costs on properties. However, same-store NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it does not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, acquisition-related expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization costs, other nonproperty income and losses, the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, or trends in development and construction activities which are significant economic costs and activities that could materially impact our results from operations. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to same-store NOI.

However, same-store NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it does not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, acquisition-related expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization costs, other nonproperty income and losses, the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, or trends in development and construction activities which are significant economic costs and activities that could materially impact our results from operations. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to same-store NOI.
