- Organization and Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
Medalist Diversified Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (the “REIT”) is a Maryland corporation formed on September 28, 2015. Beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2017, the REIT has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes. The REIT serves as the general partner of Medalist Diversified Holdings, LP (the “Operating Partnership”) which was formed as a Delaware limited partnership on September 29, 2015. As of June 30, 2024, the REIT, through the Operating Partnership, owned and operated 10 developed properties consisting offour retail center properties, three flex center properties, andthree single tenant net lease (“STNL”) properties, andthree undeveloped parcels.
The use of the word “Company” refers to the REIT and its consolidated subsidiaries, except where the context otherwise requires. The Company includes the REIT, the Operating Partnership and wholly-owned limited liability companies which own or operate the properties.
The Company owns four retail center properties consisting of (i) the Shops at Franklin Square, a 134,239 square foot retail property located in Gastonia, North Carolina (the “Franklin Square Property”), (ii) the Ashley Plaza Shopping Center, a 156,012 square foot retail property located in Goldsboro, North Carolina (the “Ashley Plaza Property”), (iii) the Lancer Center, a 181,590 square foot retail property located in Lancaster, South Carolina (the “Lancer Center Property”), and (iv) the Salisbury Marketplace Shopping Center, a 79,732 square foot retail property located in Salisbury, North Carolina (the “Salisbury Marketplace Property”).
On March 13, 2024, the Company, and its tenant in common partner, sold the Shops at Hanover Square North, a 73,440 square foot retail property located in Mechanicsville, Virginia (the “Hanover Square Shopping Center Property”). The Company and its tenant in common partner retained ownership of the 0.86 acre outparcel (the “Hanover Square Outparcel” and together with the Hanover Square Shopping Century Property, the “Hanover Square Property”). The Company owned 84% of the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property and the Hanover Square Outparcel as a tenant in common with a noncontrolling owner which owned the remaining 16% interest. On March 25, 2024, the Company purchased its tenant in common partner’s 16% interest in the Hanover Square Outparcel (see Note 3, below). Collectively, the sale of the Hanover Square Shopping Center and the acquisition of the tenant in common partner’s 16% interest in the Hanover Square Outparcel are referenced herein as the “Hanover Square Transactions”.
The Company owns three flex center properties consisting of (i) Brookfield Center, a 64,880 square foot mixed-use industrial/office property located in Greenville, South Carolina (the “Brookfield Center Property”), (ii) the Greenbrier Business Center, an 89,280 square foot mixed-use industrial/office property located in Chesapeake, Virginia (the “Greenbrier Business Center Property”),
and (iii) the Parkway Property, a 64,109 square foot mixed-use industrial office property located in Virginia Beach, Virginia (the "Parkway Property”), in which the Company owns an 82% tenant in common interest with a noncontrolling owner which owns the remaining 18% interest.

The East Coast Wings Property and the T-Mobile Property are both located on outparcels adjacent to the Ashley Plaza Property. Prior to January 1, 2024, the Company included the East Coast Wings Property and the T-Mobile Property as part of the Ashley Plaza Property.
The Company also owns three undeveloped parcels which are currently being marketed for use as STNL properties including (i) an outparcel at its Lancer Center Property consisting of approximately 1.80 acres (the “Lancer Outparcel”), (ii) an outparcel at its Salisbury Marketplace Property consisting of approximately 1.20 acres (the “Salisbury Outparcel”) (the exact size of the Lancer Outparcel and Salisbury Outparcel will not be determined until a user is identified), and (iii) the Hanover Square Outparcel consisting of approximately 0.86 acres located adjacent to the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property, which the Company sold on March 13, 2024.
The Company prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). References to the condensed consolidated financial statements and references to individual financial statements included herein, reference the condensed consolidated financial statements or the respective individual financial statement. All material balances and transactions between the consolidated entities of the Company have been eliminated.
The Company was formed to acquire, reposition, renovate, lease and manage income-producing properties, with a primary focus, as of June 30, 2024, on commercial properties, including retail properties and flex-industrial properties in secondary and tertiary markets in the southeastern part of the United States, with an expected concentration in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Alabama, and STNL assets with an expected national focus. The Company may also pursue, in an opportunistic manner, other real estate-related investments, including, among other things, equity or other ownership interests in entities that are the direct or indirect owners of real property, indirect investments in real property, such as those that may be obtained in a joint venture. While these types of investments are not intended to be a primary focus, the Company may make such investments at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).
For all periods prior to July 18, 2023, the Company was externally managed by Medalist Fund Manager, Inc. (the “Manager”). On July 18, 2023, the Company and the Manager entered into an agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) terminating that certain Management Agreement, dated as of March 15, 2016, among the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Manager, as amended (the “Management Agreement”). Until the termination of the Management Agreement, the Manager made all investment decisions for the Company, which were approved by the Board’s Acquisition Committee. In addition, until the termination of the Management Agreement, the Manager oversaw the Company’s overall business and affairs and had broad discretion to make operating decisions on behalf of the Company. Since the termination of the Management Agreement, the Company has been managed internally as directed by the Board. The Company’s stockholders are not involved in its day-to-day affairs.
- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Investment Properties
The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01,Business Combinations (Topic 805), which clarifies the framework for determining whether an integrated set of assets and activities meets the definition of a business. The revised framework establishes a screen for determining whether an integrated set of assets and activities is a business and narrows the definition of a business, which is expected to result in fewer transactions being accounted for as business combinations. Acquisitions of integrated sets of assets and activities that do not meet the definition of a business are accounted for as asset acquisitions. As a result, all of the Company’s acquisitions to date qualified as asset acquisitions and the Company expects future acquisitions of operating properties to qualify as asset acquisitions. Accordingly, third-party transaction costs associated with these acquisitions have been and will be capitalized, while internal acquisition costs will continue to be expensed.
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 mandates that “an acquiring entity shall allocate the cost of an acquired entity to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at date of acquisition.” ASC 805 results in an allocation of acquisition costs to both tangible and intangible assets associated with income producing real estate. Tangible assets include land, buildings, site improvements, tenant improvements and furniture, fixtures and equipment, while intangible assets include the value of in-place leases, lease origination costs (leasing commissions and tenant improvements), legal and marketing costs and leasehold assets and liabilities (above or below market leases), among others.
The Company uses independent, third-party consultants to assist management with its ASC 805 evaluations. The Company determines fair value based on accepted valuation methodologies including the cost, market, and income capitalization approaches. The purchase price is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets identified in the evaluation.
The Company records depreciation on buildings and improvements utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, generally 4 to 42 years. The Company reviews depreciable lives of investment properties periodically and makes adjustments to reflect a shorter economic life, when necessary. Capitalized leasing commissions and tenant improvements incurred and paid by the Company subsequent to the acquisition of the investment property are amortized utilizing the straight-line method over the term of the related lease. Amounts allocated to buildings are depreciated over the estimated remaining life of the acquired building or related improvements.
Acquisition and closing costs are capitalized as part of each tangible asset on a pro rata basis. Improvements and major repairs and maintenance are capitalized when the repair and maintenance substantially extend the useful life, increases capacity or improves the efficiency of the asset. All other repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.
Assets Held for Sale
The Company may decide to sell properties that are held as investment properties. The accounting treatment for the disposal of long-lived assets is covered by ASC 360. Under this guidance, the Company records the assets associated with these properties, and any associated mortgages payable, as held for sale when management has committed to a plan to sell the assets, actively seeks a buyer for the assets, and the consummation of the sale is considered probable and is expected within one year. Delays in the time required to complete a sale do not preclude a long-lived asset from continuing to be classified as held for sale beyond the initial one-year period if the delay is caused by events or circumstances beyond an entity’s control and there is sufficient evidence that the entity remains committed to a qualifying plan to sell the long-lived asset.
Properties classified as held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying value or their fair value, less estimated costs to sell. When the carrying value exceeds the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, an impairment charge is recognized. The Company determines fair value based on the three-level valuation hierarchy for fair value measurement. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
During November 2023, the Company committed to a plan to sell an asset group associated with the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property that included the land, site improvements, building, building improvements and tenant improvements. As a result, as of December 1, 2023, the Company reclassified these assets, and the related mortgage payable, net, for the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property as assets held for sale and liabilities associated with assets held for sale, respectively. Under ASC 360, depreciation of assets held for sale is discontinued, so no further depreciation or amortization was recorded subsequent to December 1, 2023. The Company believed that the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, exceeded the Company’s carrying cost, so the Company did not record any impairment of assets held for sale related to the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property for any periods, including the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, the periods during which the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property was classified as assets held for sale. The Company sold the Hanover Square Shopping Center on March 13, 2024.
Intangible Assets and Liabilities, net
The Company determines, through the ASC 805 evaluation, the above and below market lease intangibles upon acquiring a property. Intangible assets (or liabilities) such as above or below-market leases and in-place lease value are recorded at fair value and are amortized as an adjustment to rental revenue or amortization expense, as appropriate, over the remaining terms of the underlying leases. The Company amortizes amounts allocated to tenant improvements, in-place lease assets and other lease-related intangibles over the remaining life of the underlying leases. The analysis is conducted on a lease-by-lease basis.
Details of the deferred costs, net of amortization, arising from the Company’s purchases of its retail center properties, flex center properties and STNL properties are as follows:

Impairment
No loss on impairment was recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a loss on impairment of $14,116 and $50,859, respectively, resulting from the events described below.
Investment Properties
The Company reviews its investment properties for impairment on a property-by-property basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of investment properties may not be recoverable, but at least annually. These circumstances include, but are not limited to, declines in the property’s cash flows, occupancy and fair market value. The Company measures any impairment of an investment property when the estimated undiscounted cash flows plus its residual value is less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent impairment has occurred, the Company charges to income the excess of the carrying value of the property over its estimated fair value. The Company estimates fair value using unobservable data such as projected future operating income, estimated capitalization rates, or multiples, leasing prospects and local market information. The Company may decide to sell properties that are held for use and the sale prices of these properties may differ from their carrying values. The Company did not record any impairment adjustments to its investment properties resulting from events or changes in circumstances during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, that would result in the projected value of the Company’s investment properties being below their carrying value.
However, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, a tenant defaulted on its lease and abandoned its premises. The Company determined that the carrying value of capitalized leasing commissions associated with this lease which were recorded as a component of investment properties on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets should be written off, and the Company recorded a loss on impairment of $5,873 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company agreed to allow a second tenant to terminate its lease early. The Company determined that the carrying value of capitalized tenant improvements associated with this lease which were recorded as a component of investment properties on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets should be written off, and the Company recorded a loss on impairment of $8,655 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. These amounts are included in the loss on impairment reported on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. No such loss on impairment was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
Intangible Assets
The Company also reviews its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of its intangible assets may not be recoverable, but at least annually. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the tenant discussed in the paragraph immediately above terminated its lease early. The Company determined that the carrying value of the intangible assets and liabilities, net, associated with this lease that were recorded as part of the purchase of this property should be written off. As a result, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a loss on impairment related to intangible assets
of $26,896. This amount is included in the loss on impairment reported on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023. No such loss on impairment was recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2023 or for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
Unbilled Rent
The Company also reviews the unbilled rent asset recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets for impairment to determine if any amounts may not be recoverable. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company wrote off $8,243 and $9,435, respectively, in unbilled rent related to the two tenants discussed above. These amounts are included in the loss on impairment reported on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. No such amounts were recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
Conditional Asset Retirement Obligation
A conditional asset retirement obligation represents a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement depends on a future event that may or may not be within the Company’s control. Currently, the Company does not have any conditional asset retirement obligations. However, any such obligations identified in the future would result in the Company recording a liability if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. Environmental studies conducted at the time the Company acquired its properties did not reveal any material environmental liabilities, and the Company is unaware of any subsequent environmental matters that would have created a material liability.
The Company believes that its properties are currently in material compliance with applicable environmental, as well as non-environmental, statutory and regulatory requirements. The Company did not record any conditional asset retirement obligation liabilities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents consist primarily of bank operating accounts and money markets. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk include its cash and equivalents and its trade accounts receivable.
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents and any restricted cash held by the Company on deposit with financial institutions in the United States which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. The Company’s credit loss in the event of failure of these financial institutions is represented by the difference between the FDIC limit and the total amounts on deposit. Management monitors the financial institutions’ credit worthiness in conjunction with balances on deposit to minimize risk. As of June 30, 2024, the Company held two cash accounts at a single financial institution with combined balances that exceeded the FDIC limit by $2,980,823. As of December 31, 2023, the Company held two cash accounts at a single financial institution with combined balances that exceeded the FDIC limit by $1,366,872.
Restricted cash represents (i) amounts held by the Company for tenant security deposits, (ii) escrow deposits held by lenders for real estate tax, insurance, and operating reserves, (iii) an escrow for the first year of dividends on the Company’s mandatorily redeemable preferred stock, and (iv) capital reserves held by lenders for investment property capital improvements.
Tenant security deposits are restricted cash balances held by the Company to offset potential damages, unpaid rent or other unmet conditions of its tenant leases. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company reported $245,152 and $260,898, respectively, in security deposits held as restricted cash.
Escrow deposits are restricted cash balances held by lenders for real estate taxes and insurance premiums. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company reported $297,072 and $191,139, respectively, in escrow deposits.
Capital reserves are restricted cash balances held by lenders for capital improvements, leasing commissions and tenant improvements. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company reported $1,095,843 and $1,122,965, respectively, in capital property reserves.

Share Retirement
ASC 505-30-30-8 provides guidance on accounting for share retirement and establishes two alternative methods for accounting for the repurchase price paid in excess of par value. The Company has elected the method by which the excess between par value and the repurchase price, including costs and fees, is recorded to additional paid in capital on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company did not engage in any share repurchases or retirements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Revenue Recognition
Retail, Flex Center and STNL Property Revenues
The Company recognizes minimum rents from its retail center properties, flex center properties and STNL properties on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases which results in an unbilled rent asset being recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company reported $1,061,357 and $1,109,782, respectively, in unbilled rent.
The Company’s leases generally require the tenant to reimburse the Company for a substantial portion of its expenses incurred in operating, maintaining, repairing, insuring and managing the shopping center and common areas (collectively defined as Common Area Maintenance or “CAM” expenses). The Company includes these reimbursements, along with other revenue derived from late fees and seasonal events, on the condensed consolidated statements of operations under the captions “Retail center property revenues”, “Flex center property revenues”, and “Single tenant net lease asset revenues”. (See Recent Accounting Pronouncements, below.) This significantly reduces the Company’s exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation or other outside factors. The Company accrues reimbursements from tenants for recoverable portions of all these expenses as revenue in the period the applicable expenditures are incurred. The Company calculates the tenant’s share of operating costs by multiplying the total amount of the operating costs by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of square feet being leased by the tenant, and the denominator of which is the average total square footage of all leasable buildings at the property. The Company also receives payments for these reimbursements from substantially all its tenants on a monthly basis throughout the year.
The Company recognizes differences between previously estimated recoveries and the final billed amounts in the year in which the amounts become final. Since these differences are determined annually under the leases and accrued as of December 31 in the year earned, no such revenues were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
The Company recognizes lease termination fees in the period that the lease is terminated and collection of the fees is reasonably assured. Upon early lease termination, any unrecovered intangibles and other assets are written off as a loss on impairment. (See Impairment, above.) The Company didnot receive any lease termination fees during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Management Restructuring Expenses
On July 18, 2023, the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into the Termination Agreement with the Manager, William R. Elliott and Thomas E. Messier, which provided for the immediate termination of the Management Agreement and, among other things, aggregate payments of $1,602,717 in settlement of all amounts payable under the Management Agreement (consisting of
a $1,250,000 termination fee and the $352,717 Deferred Acquisition Fee, as defined in Note 9, below). For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded the termination fee and other expenses associated with the Special Committee’s exploration of strategic alternatives as management restructuring expenses on its consolidated statement of operations in accordance with ASC 420-10-S99. Specifically, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded $151,975 and $393,425, respectively, in legal fees associated with the work of the Special Committee as management restructuring expenses. No such expenses were recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.
Rent and other receivables
Rent and other receivables include tenant receivables related to base rents and tenant reimbursements. Rent and other receivables do not include receivables attributable to recording rents on a straight-line basis, which are included in unbilled rent, discussed above. The Company determines an allowance for the uncollectible portion of accrued rents and accounts receivable based upon customer credit worthiness (including expected recovery of a claim with respect to any tenants in bankruptcy), historical bad debt levels, and current economic trends. The Company considers a receivable past due once it becomes delinquent per the terms of the lease. A past due receivable triggers certain events such as notices, fees and other allowable and required actions per the lease. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s allowance for uncollectible rent totaled $18,194 and $13,413, respectively, which are comprised of amounts specifically identified based on management’s review of individual tenants’ outstanding receivables. Management determined that no additional general reserve is considered necessary as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Income Taxes
Beginning with the Company’s taxable year ended December 31, 2017, the REIT has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code and applicable Treasury regulations relating to REIT qualification. In order to maintain this REIT status, the regulations require the Company to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to stockholders and meet certain other asset and income tests, as well as other requirements. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT, it will be subject to tax at regular corporate rates for the years in which it fails to qualify. If the Company loses its REIT status it could not elect to be taxed as a REIT for five years unless the Company’s failure to qualify was due to reasonable cause and certain other conditions were satisfied.
Management has evaluated the effect of the guidance provided by GAAP onAccounting for Uncertainty of Income Taxesand has determined that the Company had no uncertain income tax positions.
Use of Estimates
The Company has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reported period. The Company’s actual results could differ from these estimates.
Noncontrolling Interests
The ownership interests not held by the REIT are considered noncontrolling interests. There are three elements of noncontrolling interests in the capital structure of the Company. These noncontrolling interests have been reported in equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheets but separate from the Company’s equity. On the condensed consolidated statements of operations, the subsidiaries are reported at the consolidated amount, including both the amount attributable to the Company and noncontrolling interests. The Company’s condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity includes beginning balances, activity for the period and ending balances for stockholders’ equity, noncontrolling interests and total equity.
The first noncontrolling interest is in the Hanover Square Property (consisting of both the Hanover Square Shopping Center and the Hanover Square Outparcel) in which the Company owned an 84% tenancy in common interest through its subsidiary and an outside party owned a 16% tenancy in common interest, prior to the Hanover Square Transactions. Prior to the Hanover Square Transactions, the Hanover Square Property’s net (loss) income was allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest based on its 16% ownership. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024,16% of the Hanover Square Property’s net (loss) income of ($17,858)and$2,839,542, respectively, or ($2,857)and $454,327, respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest. During the
three and six months ended June 30, 2023,16% of the Hanover Square Property’s net loss of $102 and$7,857, respectively, or $16 and$1,257, respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest.
The second noncontrolling interest is in the Parkway Property, in which the Company owns an 82% tenancy in common interest through its subsidiary and an outside party owns an 18% tenancy in common interest. The Parkway Property's net income is allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest based on its 18% ownership. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024,18% of the Parkway Property's net income of $3,652 and $40,105, respectively, or $657 and $7,219, respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023,18% of the Parkway Property’s net income of $90,272 and $43,790, respectively, or $16,249 and $7,882, respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling ownership interest.
The third noncontrolling ownership interest consists of the common units of the Operating Partnership (the “Operating Partnership Units”) that are not held by the REIT. In 2017,7,812 Operating Partnership Units were issued in a 721 exchange, which allows the exchange of interests in real property for units in the operating partnership of a real estate investment trust. The members of a selling limited liability company invested $1,175,000 in the Operating Partnership in exchange for 7,812 Operating Partnership Units. Additionally, effective on January 1, 2020,5,865 Operating Partnership Units were issued in exchange for approximately 3.45% of the noncontrolling owner’s tenant in common interest in the Hampton Inn Property, a property that was formerly owned by the Company. On August 31, 2020, a holder of Operating Partnership Units converted 332 Operating Partnership Units into shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Shares”). On January 18, 2024, the Company issued 19,348 Operating Partnership Units to Francis P. Kavanaugh, representing a portion of his 2024 compensation. On February 16, 2024, the Company redeemed for cash the 5,865 Operating Partnership Units that were issued to the Hampton Inn Property noncontrolling owner. On March 27, 2024, the Company issued 208,695 Operating Partnership Units as consideration for the purchase of the Citibank Property. On May 30, 2024, the Company redeemed 1,330 Operating Partnership Units for cash. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were 234,194 and 13,346 Operating Partnership Units outstanding, respectively, not held by the REIT. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively,6,150 and 13,346 of the Operating Partnership Units not held by the REIT were convertible to Common Shares. Outstanding Operating Partnership Units have been adjusted for the Reverse Stock Split (as defined below). (See Note 7, below).
The Operating Partnership Units not held by the REIT represent 17.32% and 1.19% of the outstanding Operating Partnership Units as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The noncontrolling interest percentage is calculated at any point in time by dividing the number of Operating Partnership Units not owned by the Company by the total number of Operating Partnership Units outstanding. The noncontrolling interest ownership percentage will change as additional common or preferred shares are issued by the REIT, or additional Operating Partnerships Units are issued or as Operating Partnership Units are exchanged for the Company’s $0.01 par value per share Common Shares. During periods when the Operating Partnership’s noncontrolling interest changes, the noncontrolling ownership interest is calculated based on the weighted average Operating Partnership noncontrolling ownership interest during that period. The Operating Partnership’s net loss is allocated to the noncontrolling Operating Partnership Unit holders based on their ownership interest.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, a weighted average of 17.39% and 5.11% of the Operating Partnership’s net income of $145,094 and$2,683,271, respectively, or $25,228 and$136,985, respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling Operating Partnership Unit holders. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, a weighted average of 1.19% of the Operating Partnership’s net loss of $39,346 and $283,335, respectively, or$468 and$3,371, respectively, was allocated to the noncontrolling Operating Partnership Unit holders.
Reclassifications
Operating Segments
Effective January 1, 2024, the Company established STNL assets as a third operating segment. The Ashley Plaza Property consists ofthree separate parcels including a parcel with the main shopping center building, the East Coast Wings Parcel and the T-Mobile Parcel. Effective for the periods after January 1, 2024, the Company reports revenues from the East Coast Wings Parcel and the T-Mobile Parcel as STNL property revenues, and expenses associated with thesetwo parcels as STNL property expenses. For the periods prior to January 1, 2024, the Company has reclassified the revenues and expenses associated with thesetwo parcels that were previously recorded as retail center property revenues and retail center property expenses as STNL property revenues and STNL property expenses, respectively. Specifically, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company reclassified $56,285 and $112,591, respectively, that waspreviously recorded as retail center property revenues to single tenant net lease revenues, and $7,750 and $15,478,
respectively, that waspreviously recorded as retail center property expenses to single tenant net lease expenses. These reclassifications had no impact on total revenues, total expenses or net income (loss).
Outstanding Shares
All per share amounts, Common Shares outstanding, Operating Partnership Units outstanding, and stock-based compensation amounts for all periods presented reflect the Company’sone-for-eight reverse stock split (the “2023 Reverse Stock Split”), which was effective May 3, 2023 (see Completion of 1-for-8 Reverse Stock Split under Note 7, below) and the Company’sone-for-ten reverse stock split (the “2024 Reverse Stock Split”) andfive-for-one forward stock split (the “Forward Stock Split”) which were both effective July 2, 2024 (see Completion of 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split and 5-for-1 Forward Stock Split under Note 11, below.) The effect of the 2024 Reverse Stock Split and the Forward Stock Split are retroactively applied in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and these Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07,Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The objective of ASU 2023-07 is to improve reportable segment disclosures by public companies, primarily by requiring enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. Under the updates in this guidance, companies are required to disclose, on an annual and interim basis, significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss. Additionally, a total for all other expenses that are not determined to be significant segment expenses must be separately presented for each reported measure of segment profit or loss for the corresponding reporting periods, and a description of the expenses included in that total must be provided in the disclosure. The updated guidance also requires disclosure of the title and position of the chief operating decision maker and an explanation of how the company’s reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss are used in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate the company’s resources. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, which means that the Company will be required to include the enhanced disclosures beginning with its consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2024. The guidance must be applied retrospectively, and early adoption is permitted. As discussed in Note 10 below, the Company has reportable segments for retail center properties, flex center properties and STNL properties, and it previously had a reportable segment for hotel properties. The Company is currently evaluating the new disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07 to determine the impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Evaluation of the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
Under the accounting guidance related to the presentation of financial statements, the Company is required to evaluate, on a quarterly basis, whether or not the entity’s current financial condition, including its sources of liquidity at the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, will enable the entity to meet its obligations as they come due arising within one year of the date of the issuance of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and to make a determination as to whether or not it is probable, under the application of this accounting guidance, that the entity will be able to continue as a going concern. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The redemption date of the Company’s mandatorily redeemable preferred stock is February 19, 2025 (the “Redemption Date”). The Company will require additional liquidity to fund the redemption. The Company expects to be able to generate this liquidity from a number of sources, including cash on hand, forecasted future cash flows for the periods prior to the Redemption Date, and careful management of the Company’s capital expenditures during the periods prior to the Redemption Date.
In applying applicable accounting guidance, management considered the Company’s current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows, the Company’s obligations due over the next twelve months as well as the Company’s recurring business operating expenses. The Company concludes that it is probable that the Company will be able to meet its obligations arising within one year of the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements within the parameters set forth in the accounting guidance.

Assets Held for Sale
The Company records properties as assets held for sale, and any associated mortgages payable, net, as mortgages payable, net, associated with assets held for sale, on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets when management has committed to a plan to sell the assets, actively seeks a buyer for the assets, and the consummation of the sale is considered probable and is expected within one year.
During November 2023, the Company committed to a plan to sell an asset group associated with the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property that includes the land associated with the Hanover Square Shopping Center (excluding the land associated with the Hanover Square Outparcel), site improvements, building, building improvements and tenant improvements. As a result, as of December 1, 2023, the Company reclassified these assets, and the related mortgage payable, net, for the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property as assets held for sale and liabilities associated with assets held for sale, respectively. Under ASC 360, depreciation of assets held for sale is discontinued, so no further depreciation or amortization was recorded subsequent to December 1, 2023. The Company believed that the fair value, less estimated costs to sell, exceeded the Company’s carrying cost, so the Company has not recorded any impairment of assets held for sale related to the Hanover Square Shopping Center Property for any period subsequent to December 1, 2023.

On February 19, 2020, the Company issued and sold 200,000 shares of 8.0% Series A cumulative redeemable preferred stock at$23.00 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of$4,600,000. Net proceeds from the issuance were$3,860,882, which includes the impact of the underwriter’s discounts, selling commissions and legal, accounting and other professional fees, and is presented on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as mandatorily redeemable preferred stock.
If outstanding on February 19, 2025, the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock must be redeemed by the Company, out of funds legally available therefor, on that date, the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance. Beginning on February 19, 2022, the second anniversary of the issuance, the Company may redeem the outstanding mandatorily redeemable preferred stock for an amount equal to its aggregate liquidation preference, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends. The holders of the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock may also require the Company to redeem the stock upon a change of control of the Company for an amount equal to its aggregate liquidation preference plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon.
The Company believes that it has a range of options available to fund the redemption of the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock including using a combination of cash on hand and cash generated from operations for the remaining six months ending December 31, 2024. In addition to these funding sources, the Company believes that it could generate cash to redeem the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock by issuing a new series of preferred stock or issuing other debt or equity instruments. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient funding to fund the redemption of the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock.
The Company has classified the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock as a liability in accordance with ASC Topic No. 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” which states that mandatorily redeemable financial instruments should be classified as liabilities and therefore the related dividend payments are treated as a component of interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations (see Note 5, below, for a discussion of interest expense associated with the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock).
For the following periods during which the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock has been outstanding, the Company has paid a cash dividend on the stock equal to 8% per annum, paid quarterly, as follows:

Interest rate protection transaction
On October 28, 2021, the Company entered into an interest rate protection transaction to limit its exposure to increases in interest rates on the variable rate mortgage loan on the Parkway Property (the “Interest Rate Protection Transaction”). Under this agreement, the Company’s interest rate exposure iscapped at 5.25% if USD 1-Month ICE LIBOR exceeds 3%. Effective on July 1, 2023, the interest rate index under the Interest Rate Protection Transaction automatically converted to SOFR. SOFR was 5.34% and 5.35% as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. In accordance with the guidance on derivatives and hedging, the Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value under other assets. The Company determines fair value based on the three-level valuation hierarchy for fair value measurement. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The fair value of the Interest Rate Protection Transaction is valued by an independent, third-party consultant which uses observable inputs such as yield curves, volatilities and other current market data, all of which are considered Level 2 inputs. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the Interest Rate Protection Transaction was $201,853 and $173,715, respectively, and is recorded under other assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company reports changes in the fair value of the derivative in other income on its condensed consolidated statements of operations.
For the period from September 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023, LIBOR, and for the period from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024, SOFR exceeded the 3%cap, and payments from the Interest Rate Protection Transaction reduced the Company’s net interest expense. Payments to the Company from the Interest Rate Protection Transaction are recorded as an offset to interest expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

- Equity
The Company has authority to issue 1,000,000,000 shares consisting of 750,000,000 Common Shares, and 250,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share ("Preferred Shares"). Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through its Operating Partnership. The REIT is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and owned an 82.68% and 98.81% interest in the Operating Partnership as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Limited partners in the Operating Partnership who have held their Operating Partnership Units for one year or longer have the right to redeem their common Operating Partnership Units for cash or, at the REIT’s option, Common Shares at a ratio of one Operating Partnership Unit forone common share. Under the Agreement of Limited Partnership, distributions to Operating Partnership Unit holders are made at the discretion of the REIT. The REIT intends to make distributions in a manner that will result in limited partners of the Operating Partnership receiving distributions at the same rate per Operating Partnership Unit as dividends per share are paid to the REIT’s holders of Common Shares.
Completion of 1-for-8 Reverse Stock Split
On May 3, 2023, the Company completed a reverse stock split of its Common Shares, and a corresponding adjustment to the outstanding common Operating Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership, at a ratio of 1-for-8 (the “2023 Reverse Stock Split”). The 2023 Reverse Stock Split automatically converted every eight Common Shares then outstanding into one Common Share.
Common Shares and Operating Partnership Units Outstanding
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were 1,352,509 and 1,112,751 Operating Partnership Units outstanding, respectively, with the REIT owning 1,118,315 and 1,109,405 of these Operating Partnership Units, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the remaining 234,194 and 13,346 Operating Partnership Units, respectively, are held by noncontrolling, limited partners. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were 6,150 Operating Partnership Units and 13,346 Operating Partnership Units, respectively, held by noncontrolling, limited partners that were eligible for conversion to Common Shares. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, there were 1,118,315 and 1,109,405 Common Shares of the REIT outstanding, respectively.
2018 Equity Incentive Plan
The Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) was adopted by the Board on July 27, 2018 and approved by the Company’s stockholders on August 23, 2018. The Equity Incentive Plan permits the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, performance units, incentive awards and other equity-based awards (including LTIP units of the Company’s Operating Partnership) to its employees or an affiliate (as defined in the Equity Incentive Plan) of the Company and for up to the greater of (i)15,000 Common Shares and (ii) eight percent (8)% of the number of fully diluted shares of the Company’s Common Shares (taking into account interests in the Operating Partnership that may become convertible into Common Shares).
On January 18, 2024, the Compensation Committee approved a grant of 7,637 Common Shares to the Company’sfive independent directors, a grant of 1,273 Common Shares toa consultant of the Company and a grant of 19,348 Operating Partnership Units to the Company’s President and CEO, under the Equity Incentive Plan. The effective date of the grants was January 18, 2024. The Common Shares granted vested immediately and are unrestricted. The Operating Partnership Units granted vested immediately but are
not convertible to Common Shares until January 18, 2025. However, the Equity Incentive Plan includes other restrictions on the sale of shares issued under the Equity Incentive Plan. Because the Common Shares and Operating Partnership Units vested immediately, the fair value of the grants, or $277,500, was recorded to share based compensation expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations on the effective date of the grant. The fair value of the grants was determined by the market price of the Company’s Common Shares on the effective date of the grant.
On each January 1 during the term of the Equity Incentive Plan, the maximum number of Common Shares that may be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan will increase by eight percent (8%) of any additional Common Shares or interests in the Operating Partnership issued (i) after the completion date the Company’s initial registered public offering of Common Shares, in the case of the January 1, 2019 adjustment, or (ii) in the preceding calendar year, in the case of any adjustment subsequent to January 1, 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2023, no shares were issued under the Equity Incentive Plan so no adjustment was made as of January 1, 2024, and the shares available for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan remained at 30,706 shares. As of June 30, 2024, there are 2,447 shares available for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share for the Common Shares is calculated by dividing (loss) income from continuing operations, excluding the net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, by the Company’s weighted-average number of Common Shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders, excluding the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests, by the weighted average number of Common Shares, including any dilutive shares. As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively,6,150 and 13,346 Operating Partnership Units held by noncontrolling, limited partners were eligible to be converted, on aone-to-one basis, into Common Shares. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Operating Partnership Units and the equivalent Common Shares attributable to the conversion of the Operating Partnership Units have been excluded from the Company’s diluted earnings per share calculation because their inclusion would be antidilutive. However, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Operating Partnership Units and the equivalent Common Shares attributable to the conversion of the Operating Partnership Units have been included in the diluted earnings per share calculation.
The Company's earnings (loss) per common share is determined as follows:

- Commitments and Contingencies
Insurance
The Company carries comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage, business interruption and rental loss insurance covering all of the properties in its portfolio, in addition to other coverages that may be appropriate for certain of its properties. Additionally, the Company carries a directors and officers liability insurance policy that covers such claims made against the Company and its directors and officers. The Company believes the policy specifications and insured limits are appropriate and adequate for its properties given the relative risk of loss, the cost of the coverage and industry practice; however, its insurance coverage may not be sufficient to fully cover its losses.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company is subject to risks incidental to the ownership and operation of commercial real estate. These risks include, among others, the risks normally associated with changes in the general economic climate, trends in the retail industry, creditworthiness of tenants, competition for tenants and customers, changes in tax laws, interest rates, the availability of financing and potential liability under environmental and other laws. The Company’s portfolio of properties is dependent upon regional and local economic conditions and is geographically concentrated in the Mid-Atlantic, specifically in South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia, which represented approximately 99% of the total annualized base revenues of the properties in its portfolio as of June 30, 2024. The Company’s geographic concentration may cause it to be more susceptible to adverse developments in those markets than if it owned a more geographically diverse portfolio. Additionally, the Company’s retail shopping center properties depend on anchor stores or major tenants to attract shoppers and could be adversely affected by the loss of, or a store closure by, one or more of these tenants.
Interest Rate Risk
The value of the Company’s real estate is subject to fluctuations based on changes in interest rates which may affect the Company’s ability to refinance property-level mortgage debt when balloon payments are scheduled. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. An increase in interest rates would likely cause the value of the Company’s assets to decrease. Increases in interest rates may also have an impact on the credit profile of certain tenants.
The Company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through its borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, the Company attempts to obtain mortgage financing on a long-term, fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, the Company may obtain variable-rate mortgage loans and, as a result, may enter into interest rate cap agreements that limit the effective borrowing rate of variable-rate debt obligations while allowing participants to share in downward shifts in interest rates. These interest rate caps are derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges on the forecasted interest payments on the debt obligation. Our objective in using interest rate caps is to limit our exposure to interest rate movements.
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, all of the Company’s long-term debt either bore interest at fixed rates or was capped to a fixed rate. The Company’s debt obligations are more fully described in Note 5, Loans Payable, above.
Regulatory and Environmental
As the owner of the buildings on its properties, the Company could face liability for the presence of hazardous materials (e.g., asbestos or lead) or other adverse conditions (e.g., poor indoor air quality) in its buildings. Environmental laws govern the presence, maintenance, and removal of hazardous materials in buildings, and if the Company does not comply with such laws, it could face fines for such noncompliance. Also, the Company could be liable to third parties (e.g., occupants of the buildings) for damages related to exposure to hazardous materials or adverse conditions in its buildings, and the Company could incur material expenses with respect to abatement or remediation of hazardous materials or other adverse conditions in its buildings. In addition, some of the Company’s tenants routinely handle and use hazardous or regulated substances and wastes as part of their operations at the Company’s properties, which are subject to regulation. Such environmental and health and safety laws and regulations could subject the Company or its tenants to liability resulting from these activities. Environmental liabilities could affect a tenant’s ability to make rental payments to the Company, and changes in laws could increase the potential liability for noncompliance. This may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise materially and adversely affect the Company’s operations. The Company is not aware of any material contingent liabilities, regulatory matters or environmental matters that may exist.
Litigation
The Company is not currently involved in any litigation or legal proceedings.
- Related Party Transactions
Citibank Property Acquisition
On March 28, 2024, the Company acquired the Citibank Property (see Note 3, above) from RMP 3535 N. Central Ave., LLC. The sole manager and member of RMP 3535 N. Central Ave., LLC is CWS BET Seattle, LP, a Delaware limited partnership, a company controlled and owned by Frank Kavanaugh, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Company’s Board of Directors. Pursuant to the Company’s Related Person Transaction Policy, the terms of the acquisition were determined to be those that would normally be agreed upon in an arms-length transaction.
Staffing Agreement
The Company has entered into a staffing agreement dated November 13, 2023 (the “Staffing Agreement”) with Gunston Consulting, LLC (the “Consultant”) to employ staff on behalf of the Company. The Consultant’s sole member is C. Brent Winn, Jr., the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. Under the Staffing Agreement, the Company reimburses the Consultant for any approved employee’s salary, payroll taxes and benefits, including health insurance and retirement benefits, and related expenses. All expenses are reimbursed at cost and without markup.
10. Segment Information
The Company establishes operating segments at the property level and aggregates individual properties into reportable segments based on product types in which the Company has investments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, the Company had the following reportable segments: retail center properties, flex center properties and STNL properties. During the periods presented, there have been no material intersegment transactions.
Although the Company’s flex center properties have tenants that are similar to tenants in its retail center properties, the Company considers its flex center properties as a separate reportable segment. Flex properties are considered by the real estate industry as a distinct subset of the industrial market segment. Flex properties contain a mix of industrial/warehouse and office spaces. Warehouse space that is not air conditioned can be used flexibly by building office or showroom space that is air conditioned, depending on tenants’ needs. Further, although the Company’s STNL properties have tenants that are similar to tenants in its retail center properties, the Company considers its STNL properties as a separate reportable segment. STNL properties are also considered by the real estate industry as a separate asset class.
Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not considered a measure of operating results or cash flows from operations under GAAP. NOI is the primary performance measure reviewed by management to assess operating performance of properties and is calculated by deducting operating expenses from operating revenues. Operating revenues include rental income, tenant reimbursements, and other property income; and operating expenses include operating expenses. The NOI performance metric consists of only revenues and expenses directly related to real estate rental operations. NOI reflects property acquisitions and dispositions, occupancy levels, rental rate increases or decreases, and the recoverability of operating expenses. NOI, as the Company calculates it, may not be directly comparable to similarly titled, but differently calculated, measures for other REITs.
Asset information and capital expenditures by segment are not reported because the Company does not use these measures to assess performance. Depreciation and amortization expense, along with other expense items, are not allocated among segments.
The following table presents property operating revenues, expenses and NOI by product type:

- Subsequent Events
As of August 9, 2024, the following events have occurred subsequent to the June 30, 2024 effective date of the condensed consolidated financial statements:
Completion of 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split and 5-for-1 Forward Stock Split
On July 2, 2024, the Company completed the previously announced reverse stock split of shares of its Common Shares, and a corresponding adjustment to the outstanding common units of the Operating Partnership at a ratio of 1-for-10 (the “2024 Reverse Stock Split”). The 2024 Reverse Stock Split took effect at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on July 2, 2024 (the “2024 Reverse Stock Split Effective Time”) and automatically converted every ten Common Shares outstanding at that time intoone Common Share.
The 2024 Reverse Stock Split affected all holders of Common Shares uniformly and did not affect any common stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except for de minimis changes as a result of the elimination of fractional shares, as described below. Holders of Common Shares were not required to take any action as a result of the 2024 Reverse Stock Split. Their accounts were automatically adjusted to reflect the number of shares owned.
Also on July 2, 2024, and immediately following the 2024 Reverse Stock Split, the Company completed the previously announced forward stock split of its Common Shares, and a corresponding adjustment to the outstanding common units of the Operating Partnership, at a ratio of 5-for-1 (the “Forward Stock Split” and, together with the 2024 Reverse Stock Split, the “Stock Splits”). The Forward Stock Split took effect at 5:01 p.m. Eastern Time on July 2, 2024 (the “Forward Stock Split Effective Time”) and automatically converted every one share of Common Stock outstanding at that time into five shares of Common Stock.
The Forward Stock Split affected all holders of Common Stock uniformly and did not affect any common stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company.
For stockholders of record, no fractional shares were issued in connection with the 2024 Reverse Stock Split. Instead, each stockholder that otherwise would have received fractional shares received, in lieu of such fractional shares, cash in an amount equal to the applicable fraction multiplied by the closing price of the Common Shares on Nasdaq on July 2, 2024 (as adjusted for the 2024 Reverse Stock Split). For beneficial stockholders, fractional shares resulting from the 2024 Reverse Stock Split were retained and applied to the Forward Stock Split. Any fractional shares remaining after the Forward Stock Split were retired for cash in an amount equal to the applicable fraction multiplied by the closing price of the Common Shares on Nasdaq on July 2, 2024 (as adjusted for the 2024 Reverse Stock Split).
At the 2024 Reverse Stock Split Effective Time and the Forward Stock Split Effective Time, the aggregate number of Common Shares available for awards under the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan and the terms of outstanding awards were ratably adjusted to reflect the 2024 Reverse Stock Split and the Forward Stock Split, respectively.
Trading of the Common Shares on Nasdaq commenced on a split-adjusted basis on July 3, 2024 under the existing trading symbol “MDRR.” The new CUSIP number for the Common Shares following the Stock Splits is 58403P402.
The effect of the 2024 Reverse Stock Split and the Forward Stock Split are retroactively applied in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and these Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Common Stock Dividend
On July 26, 2024, a dividend in the amount of $0.05 per share was paid to common stockholders and Operating Partnership Unit holders of record on July 23, 2024.
Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock Dividend
On July 26, 2024, a dividend in the amount of $0.50 per share was paid to mandatorily redeemable preferred stockholders of record on July 23, 2024 for the period from April 22, 2024 through July 23, 2024.
