We seek to manage the risk of our real property portfolio and the related financing arrangements by (i) diversifying among locations, tenants, scheduled lease expirations, mortgage maturities and lenders, and (ii) minimizing our exposure to interest rate fluctuations.

We monitor the risk of tenant non-payments through a variety of approaches tailored to the applicable situation. Generally, based on our assessment of the credit risk posed by our tenants, we monitor a tenant’s financial condition through one or more of the following actions: reviewing tenant financial statements or other financial information, obtaining other tenant related information, changes in tenant payment patterns, regular contact with tenant’s representatives, tenant credit checks and regular management reviews of our tenants.

In acquiring and disposing of properties, among other things, we evaluate the terms of the leases, the credit of the existing tenants, the terms and conditions of the related financing arrangement (including any contemplated financing) and engage in a fundamental analysis of the real estate to be bought or sold. This fundamental analysis takes into account, among other things, the estimated value of the property, local competition and demographics, and the ability to re-rent or dispose of the property on favorable terms upon lease expiration or early termination. In addition, in evaluating property sales, we take into account, among other things, the property type (*i.e.,*industrial, retail or other), our perception of the property’s long-term prospects (including the likelihood for, and the extent of, any further appreciation or diminution in value), the term remaining

Previous wording

We intend to make debt amortization payments from operating cash flow and, although no assurance can be given that we will be successful in this regard, generally intend to refinance, extend or pay off the mortgage loans which mature from 2024 through 2027. In particular, we anticipate refinancing a substantial portion of the remaining debt maturing in 2024 and 2025, although given the significant increase in interest rates over the past year, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to do so on terms as favorable as those currently in effect or at all. We generally intend to repay the amounts not refinanced or extended from our existing funds and sources of funds, including our available cash, proceeds from property sales and, if any, the sale of our common stock, and our credit facility (to the extent available).

Further, although we have done so infrequently and primarily in the context of a tenant default at a property for which we have not found a replacement tenant, if we believe we have negative equity in a property subject to a non-recourse mortgage loan, we may convey such property to the mortgagee to terminate our mortgage obligations, including payment of interest, principal and real estate taxes, with respect to such property.

Previous wording

Typically, we use funds from our credit facility to acquire a property and, thereafter secure long-term, fixed rate mortgage debt on such property. We apply the proceeds from the mortgage loan to repay borrowings under the credit facility, thus providing us with the ability to re-borrow under the credit facility for the acquisition of additional properties.

Our credit facility provides that subject to borrowing base requirements, we can borrow up to $100.0 million for the acquisition of commercial real estate, repayment of mortgage debt, and renovation and operating expense purposes; provided, that if used for renovation and operating expense purposes, the amount outstanding for such purposes will not exceed the lesser of $40.0 million and 40% of the borrowing base. The facility matures December 31, 2026 and bears interest equal to 30-day SOFR plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin ranges from 175 basis points if our ratio of total debt to total value (as calculated pursuant to the facility) is equal to or less than 50%, increasing to a maximum of 275 basis points if such ratio is greater than 60%.

We own a land parcel located in Beachwood, Ohio which is improved by a multi-family complex (i.e., The Vue Apartments) that we ground lease to the owner/operator of such complex. This ground lease did not generate any rental income during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. At September 30, 2024, the carrying value of the land on our balance sheet was approximately $17.3 million; our leasehold position is subordinate to $62.6 million of mortgage debt incurred by our tenant, the owner/operator of the multi-family complex. In addition, we have agreed, in our discretion, to fund certain capital expenditures and operating cash flow shortfalls at this property. We do not believe that this type of off-balance sheet arrangement has been or will be material to our liquidity and capital resource positions, except to the extent we determine to continue to fund the capital expenditures required by, and the operating cash flow shortfalls at, this property. See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding this arrangement.

Current wording

We own a land parcel located in Beachwood, Ohio which is improved by a multi-family complex (i.e., The Vue Apartments) that we ground lease to the owner/operator of such complex. This ground lease did not generate any rental income during the past several years. At March 31, 2025, the carrying value of the land on our balance sheet was approximately $17.4 million; our leasehold position is subordinate to $61.9 million of mortgage debt incurred by our tenant, the owner/operator of the multi-family complex.

We compute adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, by adjusting from FFO for straight-line rent accruals and amortization of lease intangibles, deducting from income additional rent from ground lease tenant, income on settlement of litigation, income on insurance recoveries from casualties, lease termination and assignment fees, and adding back amortization of restricted stock and restricted stock unit compensation expense, amortization of costs in connection with our financing activities (including our share of our unconsolidated joint ventures), debt prepayment costs and amortization of lease incentives and mortgage intangible assets. Since the NAREIT White Paper does not provide guidelines for computing AFFO, the computation of AFFO varies from one REIT to another.

Previous wording

The $561,000, or 5.4%, decrease in AFFO for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from the corresponding 2023 period is due to the factors impacting FFO as described immediately above, including a $217,000 decrease in rental income, net, due to the exclusion of the amortization of straight line rent and lease-related intangibles.

Current wording

The $14,000, or 0.1%, increase in FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from the corresponding 2024 period is due to the factors impacting AFFO as described immediately above, other than a $250,000 lease termination fee income recognized in the corresponding 2024 period.
