To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of SITE Centers Corp.

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of SITE Centers Corp. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, including the related notes and financial statement schedules listed in the accompanying index (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.

Basis for Opinions

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Impairment Assessments of Certain Real Estate Assets

As described in Notes 1 and 10 to the consolidated financial statements, as of December 31, 2025, the Company’s carrying value of total real estate assets, net was $225.7 million. Management reviews individual real estate assets for potential impairment indicators whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. An asset with impairment indicators is considered impaired when the undiscounted future cash flows are not sufficient to recover the asset’s carrying value. If an asset’s carrying value is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value. The valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used by management to determine the estimated fair values for real estate assets are (i) the indicative bid, which uses offers and comparable sale values; (ii) the discounted cash flow, which uses the discount rate and the terminal capitalization rate; and (iii) the income capitalization approach, which uses the market capitalization rate. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded impairment charges totaling $114.1 million, of which a significant portion related to certain real estate assets for which the estimated fair value was determined using either the discounted cash flow technique or the income capitalization approach (“certain real estate assets”).

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the impairment assessments of certain real estate assets is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the estimated fair value of certain real estate assets; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant unobservable inputs related to (a) the discount rate and the terminal capitalization rate used in the discounted cash flow technique, and (b) the market capitalization rates used in the income capitalization approach; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the impairment assessments of certain real estate assets, including controls over the development of the estimated fair values of certain real estate assets. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing management’s process for developing the estimated fair values of certain real estate assets; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the income capitalization approach used by management; (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of certain data used in the discounted cash flow technique and the income capitalization approach; and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant unobservable input used by management related to the market capitalization rates used in the income capitalization approach. Evaluating the reasonableness of the market capitalization rates involved considering external market and industry data and evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating (i) the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow technique used by management and (ii) the reasonableness of the significant unobservable inputs used by management related to the discount rate and the terminal capitalization rate.
