FrontView REIT, Inc.

Liquidity/REIT Requirements

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including our ongoing commitments to repay debt, fund our operations, acquire properties, make distributions to our stockholders, and other general business needs. As a REIT, we are required to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our taxable income determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gain, on an annual basis. As a result, it is unlikely that we will be able to retain substantial cash balances to meet our liquidity needs from our annual taxable income. Instead, we expect to meet our liquidity needs primarily by relying upon external sources of capital, such as borrowings under our debt facilities or additional equity or preferred offerings or other capital raises, which would all be subject to a number of market and other factors in order to be successfully accessible.

Short-term Liquidity Requirements

Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for our operating expenses, including our general and administrative expenses as well as interest payments on our outstanding debt and to pay distributions. Since our portfolio has had a historically strong occupancy level and substantially all of our leases are net leases, we do not currently anticipate making significant capital expenditures or incurring other significant property operating costs (unless vacancies adjust beyond historical norms) that would materially adversely impact short-term financial liquidity. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements primarily from cash and cash equivalents balances, net cash provided by operating activities, and borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan or through the issuance of debt or equity instruments subject to market conditions.

Long-term Liquidity Requirements

Our long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to repay debt and to invest in additional revenue generating properties. Debt capital is provided through our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan, as well as potentially through the issuance of debt and equity instruments subject to market conditions and Company operating performance. The source and mix of our debt capital in the future will be impacted by market conditions. We plan to prudently balance our debt portfolio with a combination of fixed and floating rate debt and will evaluate opportunities to hedge certain interest rate risk where appropriate.

We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements primarily from borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan, any future debt and equity financings, and proceeds from limited sales of our properties. Our ability to access these capital sources may be impacted by unfavorable market conditions, particularly in the debt and equity capital markets and the real estate market in general, that are outside of our control. In addition, our success will depend on our operating performance, our borrowing restrictions, our degree of leverage, market perceptions of the Company, our access to debt, equity or other capital instruments and other factors. Our acquisition growth strategy significantly depends on our ability to obtain acquisition-financing on favorable terms. We seek to reduce the risk that long-term debt capital may be unavailable to us by strengthening our balance sheet by investing in real estate with creditworthy tenants and lease guarantors, and by maintaining an appropriate mix of debt and equity capitalization.

Target Leverage

As of March 31, 2025, we had total debt outstanding of $312.0 million, Net Debt of $308.7 million, and a Net Debt-to-Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre ratio of approximately 5.7x. Our long-term goal is to target a net debt-to-annualized adjusted EBITDAre ratio of 6.0x over time. We may from time to time modify our leverage policy in light of then current economic conditions, relative costs and availability of debt and equity capital, changes in the market price of our Common Stock, acquisition opportunities, and other factors.

Capital Resources

As a new publicly traded REIT we plan to access the public equity markets to maintain an appropriate mix of debt and equity in line with our leverage policy, primarily through follow-on equity offerings and eventually through an at-the-market common equity offering program once we are shelf eligible. We anticipate that the net proceeds from any public offerings will be used to repay debt, fund acquisitions, and for other general corporate purposes.

Description of Existing Debt Outstanding

The following is a summary of the material provisions of our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan.

Revolving Credit Facility

Upon closing of our IPO, a group of lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. acting as administrative agent, provided commitments for our Revolving Credit Facility, allowing borrowings of up to $250.0 million, including $20.0 million available for issuance of letters of credit. Our Revolving Credit Facility has an initial maturity in October 2027 together with two 12-month extension options, subject to certain conditions, including payment of a 0.125% fee on the aggregate outstanding amount of the revolving commitments.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains a commitment fee of 0.15% per annum if average daily usage in such quarter is over 50% of total revolving commitments and 0.25% per annum if average daily usage in such quarter is equal to or less than 50% of total revolving commitments. Borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at floating rates based on Adjusted SOFR plus an applicable margin based on our leverage ratio ranging between 1.20% and 1.75% per annum. As of March 31, 2025, the applicable margin was 1.20%.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains an applicable facility fee based on our credit rating ranging between 0.125% and 0.30% per annum. As of March 31, 2025, the applicable facility fee was 0.30%.

As of March 31, 2025, we had $138.0 million of available capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility.

Term Loan

Upon closing of our IPO, a group of lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent, provided commitments for our Term Loan, allowing borrowings of up to $200.0 million. Our Term Loan is available to be drawn until October 2025 and has an initial maturity of October 2027 together with two 12-month extension options, at our election, subject to certain conditions including payment of a 0.125% fee on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan. On December 30, 2024, we borrowed $200.0 million from the Term Loan to repay our ABS Notes when they matured in December 2024. Our Term Loan includes a ticking fee of 0.20% per annum on the average daily amount of unfunded term loan commitments.

Borrowings under our Term Loan bear interest at floating rates based on Adjusted SOFR plus an applicable margin based on our leverage ratio ranging between 1.20% and 1.75% per annum. As of March 31, 2025, the applicable margin was 1.20%.

Covenants

We are subject to various covenants and financial reporting requirements pursuant to our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan. The table below summarizes the applicable financial covenants. If a default or event of default exists, either through default on payments or breach of covenants, we may be restricted from paying dividends to our stockholders in excess of dividends required to maintain our REIT qualification. As of March 31, 2025, we believe we were in compliance with our covenants.

Contractual Obligations

The following table provides information with respect to our contractual commitments and obligations as of March 31, 2025. Refer to the discussion in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section above for further discussion over our short and long-term obligations.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

We are exposed to interest rate risk arising from changes in interest rates on any floating-rate borrowings that we make under our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan or other debt or capital instruments that bear interest. Borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan will bear interest at floating rates based on SOFR plus an applicable margin. Accordingly, fluctuations in market interest rates may increase or decrease our interest expense, which will in turn, decrease or increase our net income and cash flow.

On March 3, 2025, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest rate risk exposure on the Term Loan. The aggregate notional amount of these contracts is $200.0 million, and they mature in March 2028. The interest rate swap agreements utilized by the Company effectively modify the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of the Company’s floating-rate debt to a fixed rate of 3.664%, thus reducing the impact of interest-rate changes on future interest expense. The agreements involve the receipt of floating-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate interest payments over the life of the agreement without an exchange of the underlying principal amount.

In the future, we may attempt to manage our interest rate risk by entering into further interest rate swaps or other hedging arrangements. Under these agreements, we will receive monthly payments from the counterparties equal to the related variable interest rates multiplied by the outstanding notional amounts. In turn, we pay the counterparties each month an amount equal to a fixed interest rate multiplied by the related outstanding notional amounts. The intended net impact of these transactions is that we pay a fixed interest rate on our variable-rate borrowings. We have not entered, and do not intend to enter, into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.

Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $3.3 million as of March 31, 2025, as compared to $13.2 million as of March 31, 2024. The table below shows information concerning cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024:

The change in net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to three months ended March 31, 2024 was mainly due to a decrease in interest expense of approximately $2.2 million. The remainder of the change in net cash provided by operating activities relates to timing of payment of payables and accrued liabilities.

The change in net cash (used in) provided by investing activities was due to 17 properties acquired and one property sold during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to no properties acquired and three properties sold during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

The increase in net cash provided by (used in) financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 is mainly due to the proceeds from debt of $43.5 million offset by distributions paid of $6.1 million compared to the $9.3 million of repayment of debt and $1.6 million of distributions paid, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our reported results and net earnings per diluted share are presented in accordance with GAAP. We also disclose FFO, AFFO, EBITDA, EBITDAre, adjusted EBITDAre, annualized adjusted EBITDAre and net debt, each of which are non-GAAP measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are industry measures used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performance of REITs.

We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”). Nareit defines FFO as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude net gains (losses) from sales of certain depreciated real estate assets, depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, and impairment charges related to certain previously depreciated real estate assets. To derive AFFO, we modify the Nareit computation of FFO to include other adjustments to GAAP net income related to certain non-cash or non-recurring revenues and expenses, including straight-line rents, cost of debt extinguishments, amortization of lease intangibles, amortization of debt issuance costs, amortization of net mortgage premiums, (gain) loss on interest rate swaps and other non-cash interest expense, realized gains or losses on foreign currency transactions, Internalization expenses, structuring and public company readiness costs, extraordinary items, and other specified non-cash items. We believe that such items are not a result of normal operations and thus we believe excluding such items assists management and investors in distinguishing whether changes in our operations are due to growth or decline of operations at our properties or from other factors.

Our leases typically include cash rents that increase through lease escalations over the term of the lease. Our leases do not typically include significant front-loading or back-loading of payments, or significant rent-free periods. Therefore, we find it useful to evaluate rent on a contractual basis as it allows for comparison of existing rental rates to market rental rates. We further exclude costs or gains recorded on the extinguishment of debt, non-cash interest expense and gains, the amortization of debt issuance costs, net mortgage premiums, and lease intangibles, realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions, Internalization expenses, and structuring and public company readiness costs, as these items are not indicative of ongoing operational results. We use AFFO as a measure of our performance when we formulate corporate goals.

FFO is used by management, investors, and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers, primarily because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains on sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, rather than fluctuating based on existing market conditions. We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider because it will help them to better assess our operating performance without the distortions created by one-time cash and non-cash revenues or expenses. FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other REITs, and comparisons of our FFO and AFFO with the same or similar measures disclosed by other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO and AFFO should not be considered alternatives to net income as a performance measure or to cash flows from operations, as reported on our statement of cash flows, or as a liquidity measure, and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures.

Neither the SEC nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments to FFO that we use to calculate AFFO. In the future, the SEC, Nareit or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the REIT industry and in response to such standardization we may have to adjust our calculation and characterization of AFFO accordingly.

The following is a reconciliation of net income (which is the most comparable GAAP measure) to FFO and AFFO:

Reconciliation of net income to FFO and AFFO

We compute EBITDA as earnings before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is a measure commonly used in our industry. We believe that this ratio provides investors and analysts with a measure of our leverage that includes our operating results unaffected by the differences in capital structures, capital investment cycles and useful life of related assets compared to other companies in our industry. In 2017, Nareit issued a white paper recommending that companies that report EBITDA also report EBITDAre in financial reports. We compute EBITDAre in accordance with the definition adopted by Nareit. Nareit defines EBITDAre as EBITDA (as defined above) excluding gains (loss) from the sales of depreciable property and provisions for impairment on investment in real estate. We believe EBITDA and EBITDAre are useful to investors and analysts because they provide important supplemental information about our operating performance exclusive of certain non-cash and other costs.

EBITDA and EBITDAre are not measures of financial performance under GAAP, and our EBITDA and EBITDAre may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider our EBITDA and EBITDAre as alternatives to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP.

We compute adjusted EBITDAre as EBITDAre for the applicable quarter, as adjusted to (i) reflect all investment and disposition activity that took place during the applicable quarter as if each transaction had been completed on the first day of the quarter, (ii) exclude certain GAAP income and expense amounts that we believe are infrequent and unusual in nature because they relate to unique circumstances or transactions that had not previously occurred and which we do not anticipate occurring in the future, (iii) eliminate the impact of lease termination fees from certain of our tenants, and (iv) exclude non-cash stock-based compensation expense. Annualized adjusted EBITDAre is calculated by multiplying adjusted EBITDAre for the applicable quarter by four, which we believe provides a meaningful estimate of our current run rate for all of our investments as of the end of the most recently completed quarter given the contractual nature of our long term net leases. You should not unduly rely on this measure as it is based on assumptions and estimates that may prove to be inaccurate. Our actual reported EBITDAre for future periods may be significantly different from our annualized adjusted EBITDAre.

The following table reconciles net income (which is the most comparable to GAAP measure) to EBITDA, EBITDAre, adjusted EBITDAre, and annualized adjusted EBITDAre.

Reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and EBITDAre

Net Debt is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define Net Debt as our Gross Debt less cash and cash equivalents. The ratios of Net Debt to EBITDAre and Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre represent Net Debt as of the end of the applicable period divided by EBITDAre or Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre for the period, respectively. We believe that these ratios are useful to investors and analysts because they provide information about Gross Debt less cash and cash equivalents, which could be useful to repay debt, compared to our performance as measured using EBITDAre and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre, which are described above.

The following table reconciles total debt (which is the most comparable GAAP measure) to Net Debt, and presents the ratios of Net Debt to EBITDAre and Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre:
