The 2031 Notes were sold at a discount with an aggregate net price of $495,910,000 with interest payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15, commencing on February 15, 2026.

NNN continues to maintain its diversification by tenant, line of trade and geography. NNN's top five line of trade concentrations are the automotive service (17.9%), convenience store (16.8%), restaurant (including full and limited service) (15.4%) and family entertainment center (7.1%) sectors. NNN's management believes these sectors present attractive investment opportunities. The Property Portfolio is geographically concentrated in the southeast (25.4%) and south (24.8%) United States, which are regions of historically above-average population growth.

Non-reimbursed real estate expenses increased in amount and as a percentage of total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to an increase in the number of vacant properties.

Impairment Losses – Real Estate, Net of Recoveries. As a result of NNN's review of long-lived real estate assets, including identifiable intangible assets, NNN recognized real estate impairments, net of recoveries for the quarters ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, which were less than one percent of NNN's total assets for the respective periods as reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Due to NNN's core business of investing in real estate leased primarily to tenants under long-term net leases, the inherent risks of owning commercial real estate and unknown potential changes in financial and economic conditions that may impact NNN's tenants, NNN believes it is reasonably possible to incur real estate impairment charges in the future.
