Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
- Business Description
Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. (the “Corporation”) is a Maryland corporation formed on October 18, 2007, that elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2008. Broadstone Net Lease, LLC (the Corporation’s operating company, or the “OP”), is the entity through which the Corporation conducts its business and owns (either directly or through subsidiaries) all of the Corporation’s properties. The Corporation is the sole managing member of the OP. The membership units not owned by the Corporation are referred to as “OP Units” and are recorded as non-controlling interests in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. As the Corporation conducts substantially all of its operations through the OP, it is structured as an umbrella partnership real estate investment trust (“UPREIT”). The Corporation’s common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “BNL”. The Corporation, the OP, and its consolidated subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company”.
The Company is an industrial-focused, diversified net lease REIT that focuses on investing in income-producing, single-tenant net leased commercial properties, primarily in the United States. The Company leases primarily industrial and retail commercial properties under long-term lease agreements. At September 30, 2026, the Company owned a diversified portfolio of 767 individual commercial properties with 760 properties located in 44 U.S. states andseven properties located infour Canadian provinces.

- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Interim Information
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information (Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 270, Interim Reporting) and Article 10 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the Company has omitted certain footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained within the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 19, 2026. Therefore, the readers of this quarterly report should refer to those audited consolidated financial statements, specifically Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, for further discussion of significant accounting policies and estimates. The Company believes all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in these interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (which include only normal recurring adjustments).
Basis of Accounting
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Principles of Consolidation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and operations of the Company. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
When the Company obtains an economic interest in an entity, the entity is evaluated to determine if it should be deemed a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and, if so, whether the Company is the primary beneficiary and is therefore required to consolidate the entity. The accounting guidance for consolidation of VIEs is applied to certain entities in which the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. Certain decision-making rights within a loan or joint-venture agreement may cause us to consider an entity a VIE. The contractual arrangements in a partnership agreement or other related contracts are reviewed to determine whether the entity is a VIE, and if the Company has variable interests in the VIE. The Company’s variable interests are then compared to those of the other variable interest holders to determine which party is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. A primary beneficiary: (i) has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company reassesses the initial evaluation of whether an entity is a VIE when certain events occur, and reassesses the primary beneficiary determination of a VIE on an ongoing basis based on current facts and circumstances. To the extent the Company has a variable interest in entities that are not evaluated under the VIE model, the Company evaluates its interests using the voting interest entity model.
The Corporation has complete responsibility for the day-to-day management of, authority to make decisions for, and control of the OP. Based on consolidation guidance, the Corporation has concluded that the OP is a VIE as the members in the OP do not possess kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. Accordingly, the Corporation consolidates its interest in the OP. However, because the Corporation holds the majority voting interest in the OP and certain other conditions are met, it qualifies for the exemption from providing certain disclosure requirements associated with investments in VIEs. The portions of a consolidated entity not owned by the Company are presented as non-controlling interests as of and during the periods presented.
From time to time, the Company acquires properties using a reverse like-kind exchange structure pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (a “reverse 1031 exchange”) and, as such, the properties are in the possession of an Exchange Accommodation Titleholder (“EAT”) until the reverse 1031 exchange is completed. EATs are classified as VIEs as they are “thinly capitalized” entities. The Company consolidates the EAT because it is the primary beneficiary as it has the ability to control the activities that most significantly impact the EAT’s economic performance and can collapse the reverse 1031 exchange structure at its discretion. The assets of the EAT primarily consist of leased property (net real estate investment in rental property and lease intangibles).
The Company invests in various entities in exchange for ownership interests. Each of these investments is a VIE in which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary as it: (i) has the power to direct the activities that significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE, and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits of the VIE. As a result, the Company consolidates these VIEs. At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company hadseven andsix consolidated VIEs, respectively.
The following table presents a summary of selected financial data of the consolidated VIEs included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:

| Total liabilities | $7,765 | $2,350 |
Use of Estimates
The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates.
Investment in Property Under Development
The Company capitalizes development, construction, and improvement costs associated with development and redevelopment of properties. Such capitalized costs include all direct and indirect costs related to planning, development, and construction, including interest, real estate taxes, insurance, compensation costs of employees directly contributing to the completion of each construction project, and other costs incurred during the construction period. These costs are recorded as Property under development in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet once the project is probable and until the property is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Deposits on potential development projects are included in Property under development in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. When the Company has determined it is probable of redeveloping an existing property and ceases its current use, the remaining carrying value of the property is reclassified to Property under development upon commencement of active redevelopment activities. Once the property is substantially complete, it is placed in service, depreciation commences, and additional capital investments, if any, are capitalized to the cost basis of the property.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company funded capital expenditures on development properties after they reached substantial completion of $29.6 million and $41.9 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company funded capital expenditures on development properties after they reached substantial completion of $11.6 million. The Company didnot fund capital expenditures on development properties after they reached substantial completion during the three months ended September 30, 2025.
The following tables summarize the Company’s investments in property under development:
| (in thousands) | September 30,2026 | December 31,2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Development, construction and improvement costs | $473,221 | $261,541 |
| Capitalized interest | 10,896 | 4,271 |
| Property under development | $484,117 | $265,812 |

| Investment in properties under development, excluding capitalized costs | $173,884 | $60,536 | $387,208 | $159,924 |
Long-lived Asset Impairment
The Company reviews 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 to determine if and when impairment should be taken. The Company’s assessment of impairment during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, was based on the most current information available to the Company. Certain of the Company’s properties may have fair values less than their carrying amounts. However, based on the Company’s plans with respect to each of those properties, the Company believes that their carrying amounts are recoverable and therefore, no impairment charges were recognized other than those described below. If the operating conditions mentioned above deteriorate or if the Company’s expected holding period for assets changes, subsequent tests for impairment could result in additional impairment charges in the future.
Inputs used in establishing fair value for impaired real estate assets generally fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, which are characterized as requiring significant judgment as little or no current market activity may be available for validation. The main indicator used to establish the classification of the inputs is current market conditions, as derived through the use of published commercial real estate market information and information obtained from brokers and other third party sources. The Company determines the valuation of impaired assets using generally accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis, income capitalization, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sales negotiations, and bona fide purchase offers received from third parties. Management may consider a single valuation technique or multiple valuation techniques, as appropriate, when estimating the fair value of its real estate.
The following table summarizes the Company’s impairment charges, resulting primarily from changes in the Company’s long-term hold strategy with respect to the individual properties:
| (in thousands) · For the Three Months EndedSeptember 30, · For the Nine Months EndedSeptember 30, | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 · 2025 · 2026 · 2025 | ||||||
| Number of properties | 2 | 7 | 8 | 18 | ||
| Impairment charge | $1,474 | $6,999 | $5,019 | $35,067 | ||
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized impairment of $1.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively, resulting from changes in the Company’s long-term hold strategy with respect to the individual properties. The impairments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 were based on actual and expected sales prices of individual properties. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized impairment of $7.0 million and $35.1 million, respectively, resulting from changes in the Company’s long-term hold strategy with respect to the individual properties. The impairments for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were based on actual and expected sales prices of individual properties and primarily include a $14.6 million impairment charge ontwo healthcare properties.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash generally includes escrow funds the Company maintains pursuant to the terms of certain mortgages, lease agreements, and undistributed proceeds from the sale of properties under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and is reported within Prepaid expenses and other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Restricted cash consisted of the following:
| (in thousands) | September 30,2026 | December 31,2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Escrow funds and other | $1,588 | $3,102 |
Rent Received in Advance
Rent received in advance represents tenant rent payments received prior to the contractual due date, and is included in Accounts payable and other liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Rent received in advance consisted of the following:
| (in thousands) | September 30,2026 | December 31,2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Rent received in advance | $18,367 | $18,498 |
Segment Reporting
The Company currently operates in a single reportable segment, which includes the acquisition, leasing, and ownership of net leased properties. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the Company’s senior leadership team, which includes, the Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, and the Company’s Senior Vice Presidents. The CODM assesses, measures, and reviews the operating and financial results at the consolidated level for the entire portfolio based on consolidated revenues, expenses, and net income as reported on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The Company does not evaluate the results of operations based on geography, size, or property type.
Fair Value Measurements
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
The balances of financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows (see Note 9):
| (in thousands) | September 30, 2026 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total · Level 1 · Level 2 · Level 3 | ||||
| Interest rate swap, assets | $36,026 | $— | $36,026 | $— |
| (in thousands) | December 31, 2025 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total · Level 1 · Level 2 · Level 3 | ||||
| Interest rate swap, assets | $18,248 | $— | $18,248 | $— |
| Interest rate swap, liabilities | (1,501) | — | (1,501) | — |
Long-term Debt – The fair value of the Company’s debt was estimated using Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 inputs based on recent secondary market trades of the Company’s senior unsecured public notes, recent comparable financing transactions, recent market risk premiums for loans of comparable quality, Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (“CORRA”), U.S. Treasury obligation interest rates, and discounted estimated future cash payments to be made on such debt. The discount rates estimated reflect the Company’s judgment as to the approximate current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and assumes that the debt is outstanding through maturity. Market information, as available, or present value techniques were utilized to estimate the amounts required to be disclosed. Since such amounts are estimates that are based on limited available market information for similar transactions and do not acknowledge transfer or other repayment restrictions that may exist on specific loans, it is unlikely that the estimated fair value of any such debt could be realized by immediate settlement of the obligation.
The following table summarizes the carrying amount reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Company’s estimate of the fair value of the unsecured revolving credit facility, mortgages, unsecured term loans, and senior unsecured notes which includes the fair value of interest rate swaps:
| (in thousands) | September 30,2026 | December 31,2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Carrying amount | $2,895,700 | $2,522,753 |
| Fair value | 2,948,958 | 2,564,437 |
Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements
The Company’s non-recurring fair value measurements at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 consisted of the fair value of impaired real estate assets that were determined using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs.
Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities
Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities associated with operating and finance leases were included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:
| (in thousands) | Financial Statement Presentation | September 30,2026 | December 31,2025 |

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires a public entity to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements on an annual and interim basis. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company may elect to apply the amendments either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. While this update will result in enhanced disclosures, the Company does not expect it will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements (“ASU 2025-09”). ASU 2025-09 seeks to better align hedge accounting with an entity’s risk management strategies by improving the ability to achieve and maintain hedge accounting for highly effective economic hedges of forecasted transactions. ASU 2025-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the guidance, including any additional disclosures that may be required.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025‑11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow‑Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025‑11”). ASU 2025‑11 clarifies the applicability of the interim reporting guidance in ASC 270, specifies the form and content of interim financial statements and related disclosures, adds a disclosure principle requiring entities to disclose events since the end of the most recent annual reporting period that have a material impact, and improves the organization and navigability of required interim disclosures. The amendments are not intended to change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or significantly expand or reduce existing interim disclosure requirements. ASU 2025‑11 is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the guidance, including additional disclosures that may be required.

- Investment in Rental Property and Lease Arrangements
The Company generally leases its investment rental property to established tenants in the industrial and retail property types. At September 30, 2026, the Company had 767 real estate properties,746 of which were leased under leases that have been classified as operating leases, nine that have been classified as direct financing leases, one that has been classified as a sales-type lease,10 properties under development, andone that was vacant. Of thenine leases classified as direct financing leases, three include land portions which are accounted for as operating leases (see Revenue Recognition within Note 2). Most leases have initial terms of 10 to 20 years. The Company’s leases generally provide for limited increases in rent as a result of fixed increases, increases in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”), or increases in the tenant’s sales volume. Generally, tenants are also required to pay all property taxes and assessments, substantially maintain the interior and exterior of the building, and maintain property and liability insurance coverage. The leases also typically provide for one or more multiple-year renewal options, at the election of the tenant, and are subject to generally the same terms and conditions as the initial lease.
Investment in Rental Property – Operating Leases
Depreciation expense on investment in rental property was as follows:
| For the Three Months EndedSeptember 30, | For the Nine Months EndedSeptember 30, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (in thousands) | 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 |
| Depreciation | $42,682 | $31,933 | $115,988 | $95,052 |
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, depreciation expense includes $8.5 million and $15.0 million, respectively, of accelerated depreciation resulting from a change in the useful lives of buildings and improvements attwo properties being redeveloped. There wasno accelerated depreciation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Estimated lease payments to be received under non-cancelable operating leases with tenants at September 30, 2026 are as follows:
| (in thousands) | |
|---|---|
| Remainder of 2026 | $116,720 |
| 2027 | 441,965 |
| 2028 | 440,778 |
| 2029 | 431,626 |
| 2030 | 407,001 |
| Thereafter | 3,128,079 |
| $4,966,169 | |
Since lease renewal periods are exercisable at the option of the tenant, the above amounts only include future lease payments due during the initial lease terms. Such amounts exclude any potential variable rent increases that are based on changes in the CPI or future variable rents which may be received under the leases based on a percentage of the tenant’s gross sales. Additionally, certain of our leases provide tenants with the option to terminate their leases in exchange for termination penalties, or that are contingent upon the occurrence of a future event. Future lease payments within the table above have not been adjusted for these termination rights.

At September 30, 2026, we had $428.8 million of available capacity under our unsecured revolving credit facility, inclusive of $15.7 million of standby letter of credits outstanding, as noted below.
(b)At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, overnight SOFR was 3.90% and 3.87%, respectively.
(c)At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, one-month SOFR was 3.91% and 3.69%, respectively.

At September 30, 2026, the weighted average interest rate on all outstanding borrowings was 4.52% exclusive of interest rate swap agreements, and 4.19% inclusive of interest rate swap agreements.
The Company is subject to various financial and operational covenants and financial reporting requirements pursuant to its unsecured credit agreements. These covenants require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. As of September 30, 2026, and for all periods presented, the Company believes it was in compliance with all of its loan covenants. Failure to comply with the covenants would result in a default which, if the Company were unable to cure or obtain a waiver from the lenders, could accelerate the repayment of the obligations. Further, in the event of default, the Company may be restricted from paying dividends to its stockholders in excess of dividends required to maintain its REIT qualification. Accordingly, an event of default could have a material effect on the Company.
On July 28, 2026, the Company amended the unsecured revolving credit agreement, which also governs the 2028 Unsecured Term Loan, to provide a new $300.0 million senior unsecured delayed draw term loan maturing on January 30, 2030 (the “2030 Unsecured Term Loan”). The 2030 Unsecured Term Loan is available to be drawn during the twelve month period following the effective date of the amendment. In September 2026, the Company drew $100.0 million, and $200.0 million remained available to be drawn at September 30, 2026. Borrowings are subject to interest only payments at variable rates equal to one-month SOFR plus a margin based on the Company's credit rating, ranging between 0.750% and
1.550% per annum. Based on the Company’s current credit rating, the applicable margin was 0.900% as of September 30, 2026. The Company expects to use proceeds from the 2030 Unsecured Term Loan for investment activity and general corporate purposes. The amendment also reduced the applicable SOFR-based margin on the 2028 Unsecured Term Loan to 0.900% from 0.950%, and on borrowings under the unsecured revolving credit facility to 0.800% from 0.850%, based on the Company’s current credit rating. The Company may issue letters of credit up to $50.0 million under the unsecured revolving credit facility (increased from $20.0 million by the July 28, 2026 amendment). At September 30, 2026, the Company had $15.7 million of standby letters of credit outstanding, which reduce the borrowing capacity under the facility. The letters of credit primarily support the Company's build-to-suit transactions. No draws were outstanding on the standby letters of credit as of September 30, 2026.
On July 28, 2026, the Company also amended the term loan credit agreement governing the 2027 Unsecured Term Loan and the 2029 Unsecured Term Loan to reduce the applicable SOFR-based margin to 0.900% from 0.950% based on the Company’s current credit rating. All remaining terms of the term loan credit agreement remained the same.
For each separate debt instrument, on a lender by lender basis, in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishment, the Company performed an assessment of whether the transaction was deemed to be new debt, a modification of existing debt, or an extinguishment of existing debt. Debt issuance costs are either deferred and amortized over the term of the associated debt or expensed as incurred. The 2030 Unsecured Term Loan was deemed to be new debt. The 2026 amendments to the unsecured revolving credit agreement and term loan credit agreement were deemed to be modifications of existing debt.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of $2.2 million, associated with the 2030 Unsecured Term Loan. These costs were initially recorded in Prepaid expenses and other assets and are not amortized until the related borrowings are drawn. Upon the $100.0 million draw, $0.7 million of these costs, proportionate to the amount drawn, were reclassified as a reduction of the carrying amount of the debt and is being amortized over the term of the 2030 Unsecured Term Loan. The remaining $1.5 million is included in Prepaid expenses and other assets and will be reclassified as the remaining commitments are drawn.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of $6.3 million and $18.6 million, respectively, associated with the unsecured credit agreement and 2032 Senior Unsecured Public Notes. With respect to the 2025 amendments to the unsecured credit agreement, the transactions were deemed to be modifications of debt, and therefore the associated debt issuance costs were deferred and are being amortized over the terms of the associated debt. With respect to the 2032 Senior Unsecured Public Notes, the transaction was determined to be new debt and the associated debt issuance costs were deferred and are being amortized over the term of the associated debt.
Debt issuance costs and original issuance discounts are amortized as a component of Interest expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The following table summarizes debt issuance cost and original issuance discount amortization:

At September 30, 2026, the weighted average interest rate on all outstanding borrowings was 4.19%, inclusive of a weighted average fixed rate on effective interest rate swaps of 2.61%.
In connection with the issuance of the 2032 Senior Unsecured Public Notes in September 2025 and repayment of outstanding borrowings of variable rate debt indexed to the daily simple SOFR rate, the Company terminated interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate termination value of $6.7 million. The Company determined it is not probable the hedged forecasted transactions will occur during the original periods, and therefore the $6.1 million of accumulated losses held in other comprehensive income (loss) were reclassified to interest expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. Additionally, in September 2025, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements indexed to the 7-year U.S. Treasury for an aggregate notional amount of $300.0 million in connection with the issuance of the 2032 Senior Unsecured Public Notes. These interest rate swaps were terminated upon issuance of the 2032 Senior Unsecured Public Notes. The Company determined it is probable the hedged forecasted transaction will occur during the original periods, and therefore $0.6 million of accumulated losses held in other comprehensive income (loss) are being amortized over the original term of the swap agreement, which ends in August 2032.
The total amounts recognized, and the location in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, from converting from variable rates to fixed rates under these agreements were as follows:

Performance-based Restricted Stock Units
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company issued target grants of 260,729 and 246,967 of performance-based restricted stock units (“PRSUs”), respectively, under the Company’s equity incentive plan to the executive officers of the Company. The awards are non-vested restricted stock units where the vesting percentages and the ultimate number of units vesting will be measured 50% based on the relative total shareholder return (“rTSR”) of the
Company’s common stock as compared to the rTSR of peer companies, as identified in the grant agreements, over athree-year period, and 50% based on the rTSR of the Company’s common stock as compared to the rTSR of the MSCI US REIT Index over athree-year measurement period. Vesting percentages range from 0% to 200% with a target of 100%. rTSR means the percentage appreciation in the fair market value of one share over thethree-year measurement period beginning on the date of grant, assuming the reinvestment of dividends on the ex-dividend date. The target number of units is based on achieving a rTSR equal to the 55 th percentile of the peer companies and MSCI US REIT Index. For PRSUs issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 that achieve a percentile rank of at least the 55 th percentile, and the absolute rTSR of the Company is negative for the performance period, the awards will be reduced by 25%, not to result in a reduction less than target. Recipients of PRSU awards issued during thenine months ended September 30, 2026 are eligible to receive additional PRSUs equal to additional 25% of their respective target awards if the absolute rTSR reaches 24%, and an additional 50% vesting if the rTSR reaches 36%, with linear interpolation if the rTSR is between 24% and 36%. Dividends accrue during the measurement period and will be paid on the PRSUs ultimately earned at the end of the measurement period in either cash or common stock, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The grant date fair value of the PRSUs was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation model based on assumptions including share price volatility.

- Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
From time to time, the Company is a party to various litigation matters incidental to the conduct of the Company’s business. While the resolution of such matters cannot be predicted with certainty, based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that the final outcome of any of these matters will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.
Property and Acquisition Related
In connection with ownership and operation of real estate, the Company may potentially be liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. The Company is not aware of any non-compliance, liability, claim, or other environmental condition that would have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.
As of September 30, 2026, the Company has commitments to fund 13 build-to-suit transactions with remaining obligations of $350.7 million expected to fund in multiple draws through November 2027, using a combination of available cash on hand and Revolving Credit Facility borrowings. Rent is contractually scheduled to commence when the properties reach substantial completion and are made available for use by the tenant, which is expected to occur at various dates between October 2026 and November 2027. Additionally, the Company has a $6.5 million remaining commitment to complete infrastructure improvements at a property acquired during 2026.
In July 2026, in connection with our option to purchase land to be developed (see Note 3), the Company entered into a corporate guaranty of the project entity’s payment obligations in support of the project’s development with a maximum potential future payment of $28.8 million plus enforcement costs. The Company would be required to perform upon the project entity’s failure to pay, retains recourse against the project entity for any amounts paid, and has recognized no liability under the guaranty as of September 30, 2026.
The Company is a party to a tax protection agreement with the contributing members of an UPREIT transaction and a second tax protection agreement entered into in connection with the Company’s internalization. The tax protection agreements require the Company to indemnify the beneficiaries in the event of a sale, exchange, transfer, or other disposal of the contributed property, and in the case of the tax protection agreement entered into in connection with the Company’s internalization, the entire Company, in a taxable transaction that would cause such beneficiaries to recognize a gain that is protected under the agreements, subject to certain exceptions. The Company is required to allocate an amount of nonrecourse liabilities to each beneficiary that is at least equal to the minimum liability amount, as contained in the agreements. The minimum liability amount and the associated allocation of nonrecourse liabilities are calculated in accordance with applicable tax regulations, are completed at the OP level, and are not probable. Therefore, there is no impact to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Based on values as of September 30, 2026, taxable sales of the applicable properties would trigger liability under the agreements of approximately $16.4 million. Based on information available, the Company does not believe that the events resulting in damages as detailed above have occurred or are likely to occur in the foreseeable future.
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into various types of commitments to purchase real estate properties. These commitments are generally subject to the Company’s customary due diligence process and, accordingly, a number of specific conditions must be met before the Company is obligated to purchase the properties.
Obligations Under Operating and Finance Leases
The Company is a lessee under non-cancelable operating and finance leases associated with its corporate headquarters and other office spaces as well as ground leases. The Company’s obligations under leases primarily consist of a lease for the Company’s corporate office space, which expires in March 2034 and was determined to be an operating lease. The lease containstwo five-year extension options, exercisable at the Company’s discretion, that are not reasonably certain to be exercised, and are therefore excluded from our calculation of the lease liability. The remaining lease obligations primarily consist of ground leases that, in accordance with the terms of our leases, are typically required to be reimbursed by our tenants. The Company remains primarily responsible for ground leases in the event a tenant is unable to pay. The weighted average discount rate on our operating and finance leases is 8.4%. The weighted average years remaining on our operating and finance lease liabilities is 27.5 years.
