(e)Development represents our common and preferred equity investments in a consolidated joint venture, and excludes amounts attributed to non-controlling interest holders.
Current report
Although contractual risk‑mitigation provisions and budget contingencies help reduce our exposure to inflation on in-process build‑to‑suit developments, our construction projects remain subject to potential cost overruns that could increase total project costs and adversely affect expected investment yields. To further manage these risks, we utilize a number of protective measures in our build-to-suit arrangements, including contingencies, allowances, guaranteed maximum price contracts and change orders with Tenants. We generally seek to lock in material and labor pricing through guaranteed maximum price contracts, which shift a portion of the inflationary cost risk to our general contractors and development partners. Where appropriate, our agreements permit us to pass certain cost increases thru to tenants or to change project scopes to minimize cost impacts. These strategies help mitigate the potential impact of inflation on construction costs; however, sudden, significant or sustained inflationary pressures could still adversely affect our development yields and returns if such costs are not allowed to be passed through to the general contractor, developer or tenant or to be absorbed by contingency in the project budget.
Current report
The increase in Lease revenues, net was primarily attributable to increased contractual rents related to rent escalations and growth in our real estate portfolio, specifically through recognizing a full year of rental revenue for all property acquisitions, revenue generating capital expenditures, and development stabilizations made in 2024. This was partially offset by the reductions of revenues associated with property dispositions. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we invested $438.2 million in new property acquisitions and revenue generating capital expenditures at a weighted average cash capitalization rate of 7.0%, and reached stabilization on a $54.1 million industrial build-to-suit development at a cash capitalization rate of 7.5%. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we invested $237.3 million in new property acquisitions and revenue generating capital expenditures at a weighted average initial cash capitalization rate of 7.3%, and reached stabilization on a $201.0 million build-to-suit development at a cash capitalization rate of 7.2%.
Current report
The decrease in property and operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to a decrease in non-reimbursable property expenses for two properties that were re-leased and sold at the beginning of 2025 and end of 2024, respectively.
Current report
The increase in interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to the termination of interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate termination value of $6.7 million, which resulted in $6.1 million of accumulated losses held in Other comprehensive income to Interest expense. Additionally, interest expense increased due to an increase in total borrowings on our variable-rate Revolving Credit Facility, an additional $100.0 million of term debt outstanding, and the completion of our $350.0 million 5.00% senior unsecured notes, the proceeds of which were used to fund acquisitions and paydown the Revolving Credit Facility during 2025.

Current Market Conditions and Strategic Priorities
Previous report
Over the last two fiscal years, challenging capital market conditions directly impacted the broader commercial real estate market and, in particular, the net lease real estate market. During the latter half of fiscal 2022, interest rates began to rise steadily and persisted through fiscal years 2023 and 2024, resulting in a challenging lending environment and a material increase in the cost of capital for commercial real estate buyers and lenders. The increase in interest rates accelerated at a more aggressive pace than commercial real estate capitalization rates, thereby compressing earnings on new investments. More recently, market expectations about expansionary monetary policy resulted in net lease real estate sellers maintaining higher pricing expectations, which ultimately led to a significant decrease in transaction volumes during the latter half of 2023 and throughout 2024. These challenging market conditions have limited and may continue to limit the ability of commercial real estate owners, including us, to complete real estate acquisitions at volume and accretion levels consistent with prior years, resulting in lower earnings growth rates compared to historical periods.
Previous report
On February 21, 2024, we announced the strategic decision to sell our clinically-oriented healthcare properties as part of our healthcare portfolio simplification strategy. Our decision to sell these assets was in part due to our review of our investment pipeline and expectation that we would fully redeploy the proceeds into our core investment verticals of industrial and retail assets without diluting our per share results. Through December 31, 2024, we have sold 55 clinical healthcare properties for gross proceeds of $345.6 million, thereby reducing our exposure to clinical healthcare assets to 3.2% of our ABR. We have successfully redeployed all sale proceeds and expect to employ a deliberate and methodical approach to repositioning our remaining clinically-oriented healthcare properties in order to enhance and preserve the value of those assets.
Previous report
As a result of actual and planned sales from our clinical healthcare portfolio simplification strategy, we have recognized an $72.6 million gain on sale of real estate and incurred $71.5 million of impairment charges through December 31, 2024. Outside of gains on sale of real estate and impairments, we do not expect our healthcare portfolio simplification strategy to materially impact our results of operations or financial position.
Previous report
The decrease in Lease revenues, net was primarily due to a decrease in lease termination fee income (classified as other income from real estate transactions in the table above), which fluctuates from period to period, coupled with a decrease in realizable revenues associated with certain clinical healthcare properties. While lease revenues decreased as a result of our healthcare portfolio simplification strategy, this was offset by redeployment into revenue generating properties.
Previous report
The increase in property and operating expense for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to a $2.9 million increase in non-reimbursable property expenses related to a decrease in occupancy, of which $1.7 million related to real estate taxes.
Previous report
General and administrative
Previous report
The decrease in general and administrative expense for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to a decrease in severance and employee transition costs, and directors and officers insurance premiums associated with the length of time that has elapsed since our initial public offering in 2020.
Previous report
The decrease in interest expense related to capitalizing $2.3 million more interest on in-process development spend during the year ended December 31, 2024. Additionally, approximately $1.9 million of the decrease was attributable to a decrease in our weighted average cost and outstanding balance of borrowings on our variable-rate Revolving Credit Facility. At December 31, 2024, the overnight Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) was 4.49% compared with the one-month SOFR rate of 5.35% at December 31, 2023. Our weighted average outstanding revolver balance was $95.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $121.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Lastly, $1.7 million of the decrease in interest expense related to swap terminations.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized impairment of $49.0 million, resulting from changes in our long-term hold strategy with respect to the individual properties. The 2024 impairments primarily relate to our healthcare portfolio simplification strategy and include $41.7 million on 16 clinical healthcare properties, which were based on actual or estimated sales prices of the individual properties. Of these properties, 11 were sold as part of a portfolio with a gain of $59.1 million, excluding any impairment. The remaining impairments recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024 were immaterial.

Our ability to grow rental revenue from our existing portfolio will depend on our ability to realize the rental escalations built into our leases. As of December 31, 2024, leases contributing approximately 97.4% of our ABR provided for increases in future ABR, generally ranging from 1.5% to 3.0% annually, with an ABR weighted average increase of 2.0%. Generally, our rent escalators increase rent on specified dates by a fixed percentage. Approximately 12.1% of our rent escalators are based on an increase in the CPI over a specified period and 2.6% of our leases are flat leases, meaning they do not provide for rent increases during their terms.

As of December 31, 2024, the ABR weighted average remaining term of our portfolio was approximately 10.2 years, excluding tenant renewal options, and 16 leases, or approximately 1.2% of ABR, will expire during 2025. Approximately 3% of the properties in our portfolio are subject to tenant leases without at least one renewal option. Approximately 67.3% of our ABR was derived from leases that will expire after 2030, and no more than 12.3% of our ABR was derived from leases that expire in any single year up to 2030. The stability of the rental revenue generated by our properties depends principally on our tenants’ ability to pay rent and our ability to collect rents, renew expiring leases or re-lease space upon the expiration or other termination of leases, lease currently vacant properties, and maintain or increase rental rates at our leased properties. To the extent our properties become vacant and are not subject to a lease, we would forego rental income while remaining responsible for the payment of property taxes and maintaining the property until it is re-leased, which could negatively impact our operating results. Our portfolio was 99.1% occupied as of December 31, 2024.

Our historical growth in revenues and earnings has been achieved through rent escalations associated with existing in-place leases, coupled with rental income generated from accretive property investments. Our ability to grow revenue will depend, to a significant degree, on our ability to identify and complete acquisitions that meet our investment criteria. Changes in capitalization rates, interest rates, or other factors may impact our acquisition opportunities in the future. Market conditions may also impact the total returns we can achieve on our investments. Our investment volume also depends on our ability to access third-party debt and equity financing or our ability to recycle capital through property dispositions.

Substantially all of our leases are net, pursuant to which our tenant generally is obligated to pay most recurring expenses associated with the leased property including real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance, and repairs. The remaining leases generally require that we pay some property expenses such as real estate taxes, insurance, or certain repairs and maintenance. Additionally, we seek to use master lease structures when possible, pursuant to which we lease multiple properties to a single tenant on an all or none basis. Master leases strengthen our ability to preserve rental revenue and prevent costs associated with vacancies for underperforming properties. As of December 31, 2024, master leases contributed 69.1% of the ABR associated with multi-site tenants (394 of 656 properties), and 41.4% of our overall ABR (394 of our 765 properties).

We anticipate that we will continue to incur debt to fund future investment activity, which will increase the amount of interest expense we incur. In addition, although we attempt to limit our total floating-rate debt exposure, changes in the interest rate environment could either increase or decrease our weighted average interest rate in the future. As of December 31, 2024, 97.2% of our $1.9 billion of debt is fixed through fixed rates and $939.5 million of interest rate swap notional. As interest rate swaps mature, we will be subject to interest rate risk from changes in rates on our floating-rate debt to the extent we do not enter into new interest rate swaps. Any changes to our debt structure or debt financing associated with property investments, could materially influence our operating results depending on the terms of any such debt. Our current investment grade credit ratings are ‘BBB’ from S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) and ‘Baa2’ from Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”), which allow us to take advantage of the lower cost of debt. However, a downgrade in our credit rating, or interest rate change due to governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, or other factors beyond our control, could also increase the amount of interest we pay under our debt agreements.

Our leases with tenants of our properties are long-term in nature, with a current weighted average remaining lease term of 10.2 years as of December 31, 2024. To mitigate the impact of inflation on our fixed revenue streams, we have implemented limited escalation clauses in our leases. As of December 31, 2024, substantially all of our leases had contractual rent escalations, with an ABR weighted average increase of 2.0%. A majority of our leases have fixed annual rent increases or periodic escalations over the term of the lease (e.g., a 10% increase every five years), and the remaining portion has annual rent escalations based on increases in the CPI. These lease escalations mitigate the risk of fixed revenue streams in the case of an inflationary economic environment, and provide increased return in otherwise stable market conditions. As a majority of our portfolio has fixed lease escalations, we are limited in our same store rental revenue inflation protection.

Our focus on single-tenant, net leases also mitigates the potential impact of fluctuations in the cost of services and maintenance as a result of inflation. For a portion of our portfolio, we have leases that are not fully net, and, therefore, we bear certain responsibilities for the maintenance and structural component replacements (e.g., roof, structure, or parking lot) that may be required in the future, although the tenants are still required to pay all operating expenses associated with the property (e.g., real estate taxes, insurance, and maintenance). Inflation and increased costs may have an adverse impact to our tenants and their creditworthiness if the increase in costs are greater than their increase in revenue. Where we cannot implement a net lease, we attempt to limit our exposure to inflation through the use of warranties and other remedies that reduce the likelihood of a significant capital outlay.

We review long-lived assets to be held and used for possible impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If, and when, such events or changes in circumstances are present, an impairment exists to the extent the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the long-lived asset or asset group and its eventual disposition. Such cash flows include expected future operating income, as adjusted for trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition, and other factors. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or asset group exceeds its fair value. Significant judgment is made as to if and when impairment should be taken. If our strategy, or one or more of the assumptions described above, changes in the future, we may have to recognize an impairment. Indications of a tenant’s inability to continue as a going concern, plans to vacate the property upon lease expiration, changes in our view or strategy relative to a tenant’s business or industry, or changes in our long-term hold strategies, could each be indicative of an impairment triggering event. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized $49.0 million of impairment due to a change in our long-term hold strategy for 18 properties.

If, and when, such events or changes in circumstances are present, an impairment exists to the extent the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the long-lived asset or asset group and its eventual disposition. Such cash flows include expected future operating income, as adjusted for trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition, and other factors. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or asset group exceeds its fair value. Significant judgment is made as to if and when impairment should be taken. If our strategy, or one or more of the assumptions described above, changes in the future, we may have to recognize an impairment. Indications of a tenant’s inability to continue as a going concern, plans to vacate the property upon lease expiration, changes in our view or strategy relative to a tenant’s business or industry, or changes in our long-term hold strategies, could each be indicative of an impairment triggering event. For the year ended December 31, 2025, we recognized $39.7 million of impairment due to a change in our long-term hold strategy for 19 properties.
Previous wording
The decrease in depreciation and amortization for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to properties sold in the previous year not having a full year of depreciation in the current year, offset by a full year’s worth of depreciation from property investments made in the previous year as well as partial depreciation from property investments made in the current year.
Current wording
The increase in depreciation and amortization for the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to an increase in net investment activity during 2025, as well as properties acquired and developments stabilized in the previous year having a full year’s worth of depreciation in the current year.

The increase in other income (expenses) during the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to a $6.2 million unrealized foreign exchange gain recognized on the quarterly remeasurement of our $100 million Canadian Dollars (“CAD”) Revolving Credit Facility borrowings, compared to a $1.7 million unrealized foreign exchange loss recognized during the year ended December 31, 2023.
Current wording
The increase in other expenses during the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to a $3.7 million unrealized foreign exchange loss recognized on the remeasurement of our $100 million Canadian Dollars (“CAD”) Revolving Credit Facility borrowings, compared to a $6.2 million unrealized foreign exchange gain recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Previous wording
The increase in net income is primarily due to an $18.8 million increase in the gain on sale of real estate together with a $7.9 million increase in other income (expenses), and $6.0 million decrease in interest expense. These are offset by an increase in the provision for impairment of investment in rental properties of $17.7 million and an $11.1 million decrease in lease revenues.
Current wording
The decrease in net income was primarily due to a decrease in the gain on sale of real estate of $60.6 million, an increase in interest expense of $20.4 million, and an increase in other expense of $12.6 million, which was partially offset by an increase in lease revenues, net of $22.3 million.
Previous wording
We acquire real estate using a combination of debt and equity capital and with cash from operations that is not otherwise distributed to our stockholders, and proceeds from dispositions of real estate properties. Our focus is on maximizing the risk-adjusted return to our stockholders through an appropriate balance of debt and equity in our capital structure. We are committed to maintaining an investment grade balance sheet through active management of our leverage profile and overall liquidity position. We believe our leverage strategy has allowed us to take advantage of the lower cost of debt while simultaneously strengthening our balance sheet, as evidenced by our current investment grade credit ratings of ‘BBB’ from S&P and ‘Baa2’ from Moody’s. We seek to maintain on a sustained basis a Leverage Ratio that is generally less than 6.0x. As of December 31, 2024, we had total debt outstanding of $1.9 billion, Net Debt of $1.9 billion, Pro Forma Net Debt of $1.9 billion, a Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre ratio of 5.0x, and a Pro Forma Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre ratio of 4.9x.

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including our ongoing commitments to repay debt, fund our operations, acquire and develop 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 REIT taxable income determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains, on an annual basis. As a result, it is unlikely that we will be able to retain substantial cash balances to meet our long-term liquidity needs, including repayment of debt and the acquisition of additional properties, from our annual taxable income. Instead, we expect to meet our long-term liquidity needs primarily by relying upon external sources of capital and proceeds from selective property dispositions.

Previous wording
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, to pay distributions, to fund our acquisitions that are under control or expected to close within a short time period, and to pay for commitments to fund build-to-suit developments, tenant improvements, revenue generating capital expenditures, and transitional capital investments. Under leases where we are required to bear the cost of structural repairs and replacements, we do not currently anticipate making significant capital expenditures or incurring other significant property costs, including as a result of inflationary pressures in the current economic environment, because of the strong occupancy levels across our portfolio and the net lease nature of our leases. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements primarily from cash and cash equivalents balances and net cash provided by operating activities, supplemented by borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and capital recycled through selective property dispositions. We use cash on hand and borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility to initially fund investments, which are subsequently repaid or replaced with proceeds from our equity and debt capital markets activities as well as proceeds from dispositions.

As detailed in the contractual obligations table below, we have approximately $300.4 million of expected obligations due throughout 2025, primarily consisting of $169.0 million of commitments to fund investments, $57.2 million of dividends declared, $54.1 million of projected interest expense, and $20.2 million of mortgage amortization. We expect our cash provided by operating activities, as discussed below, will be sufficient to pay for our current obligations including interest and mortgage amortization. We expect to pay for commitments to fund investments and our dividends declared using our Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2024, we have $907.0 million of available capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility.

We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements primarily from borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, future debt and equity financings, as well as proceeds from dispositions. Our ability to access these capital sources may be impacted by unfavorable market conditions, particularly in the debt and equity capital markets, that are outside of our control. In addition, our success will depend on our operating performance, our borrowing restrictions, our degree of leverage, 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. We also, from time to time, obtain or assume non-recourse mortgage financing from banks and insurance companies secured by mortgages on the corresponding specific property subject to limitations imposed by our Revolving Credit Facility covenants and our investment grade credit rating.

Our equity capital is primarily provided through our at-the-market common equity offering program (“ATM Program”), as well as follow-on equity offerings. During May 2024, we replaced our prior ATM Program with a new ATM Program with the same aggregate gross sales price of up to $400.0 million. Under the terms of our ATM Program we may, from time to time, publicly offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $400.0 million. The ATM Program provides for forward sale agreements, which enable us to set the price of shares upon pricing the offering, while delaying the issuance of shares and the receipt of the net proceeds. During the year ended December 31, 2024, in connection with forward sales agreements provided for under the ATM Program, we sold 2,187,700 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $18.29 per share, subject to certain adjustments. We expect to settle the outstanding shares of these forward sales agreements before their maturities in August and September 2025. Our estimated net proceeds of these forward sale agreements, assuming physical settlement for cash as of December 31, 2024, is approximately $38.5 million. We have not settled any part of these forward sales agreements as of December 31, 2024. After considering the shares sold subject to forward sale agreements, we have $360.0 million of capacity remaining under the ATM Program as of December 31, 2024. There were no shares issued under the ATM Program for the year ended December 31, 2023.
