We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established inInternal Control – Integrated Framework**(2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and our report dated February 21, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Real Estate Acquisitions - Fair Value of Assets Acquired

As described in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company completed two real estate property acquisitions, which totaled approximately $18.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2024. As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the assets acquired are initially measured based upon their relative fair values. The Company may engage third-party valuation specialists to assist in the estimation of the fair value of land by reviewing comparable sales within the same submarket and/or region, and the estimation of the fair value of buildings and

improvements as if the property was vacant utilizing a direct capitalization approach and a current replacement costs approach and takes into consideration other relevant market data.

We identified the estimation of the fair values used in the allocation of the land and buildings and improvements acquired for the two 2024 property acquisitions as a critical audit matter. The principal considerations for our determination included significant judgments used to evaluate certain assumptions used in the fair values of land and buildings and improvements acquired, including the comparable sales of land, and current replacement cost of the buildings and improvements for the two real estate asset acquisitions. Auditing these elements involved a high degree of auditor judgment and subjectivity due to the nature and extent of audit effort required to address these matters, including the extent of specialized skill or knowledge needed.

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
