Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
We acquire real estate using a combination of debt and equity capital, 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 March 31, 2026, we had total debt outstanding of $2.7 billion, Net Debt of $2.6 billion, Pro Forma Net Debt of $2.6 billion, a Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre ratio of 6.1x, and a Pro Forma Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre ratio of 5.8x.
Net Debt, Pro Forma Net Debt, and Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre are non-GAAP financial measures, Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre, and Pro Forma Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre are calculated based upon EBITDA, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre, and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDAre each of which is also a non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to Non-GAAP Measures below for further details concerning our calculation of non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to the comparable GAAP measure.
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 and develop properties, make distributions to our stockholders, and fund 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 investment in 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.
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 and 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, 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-level 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, capital raised through equity programs, 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 selective property dispositions.
As detailed in the contractual obligations table below, we have approximately $331.3 million of expected obligations due throughout the remainder of 2026, consisting of $171.9 million of commitments to fund investments, $82.0 million of projected interest expense, $59.9 million of dividends declared, $16.3 million of mortgage payments and amortization, and $1.1 million of lessee obligations. 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. At March 31, 2026, we had $591.9 million of available capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility.
Long-term Liquidity Requirements
Our long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to repay debt and invest in additional revenue generating properties and build-to-suit developments. We expect to source debt capital from unsecured term loans from commercial banks, revolving credit facilities, private placement senior unsecured notes, and public bond offerings.
The source and mix of our debt capital in the future will be impacted by market conditions as well as our continued focus on lengthening our debt maturity profile to better align with our portfolio’s long-term leases, staggering debt maturities to reduce the risk that a significant amount of debt will mature in any single year in the future, and managing our exposure to interest rate risk. We have no material debt maturities until 2027, as detailed in the table below.
We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements primarily from borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, future debt and equity financings, and proceeds from selective property 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.
Equity Capital Resources
Our equity capital is primarily provided through our at-the-market common equity offering program (“ATM Program”), as well as follow-on equity offerings. 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. After considering the shares sold subject to forward sale agreements, we had $281.0 million of capacity remaining under the ATM Program as of March 31, 2026.
Our public offerings have been used to repay debt, to fund investments, and for other general corporate purposes.
