Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1 —Organization
Global Net Lease, Inc. (the “Company”) is a real estate investment trust for United States (“U.S.”) federal income tax purposes (“REIT”) that focuses on acquiring and managing a global portfolio of income producing net lease assets across the U.S., and Western and Northern Europe.
As of September 30, 2026, the Company owned 835 properties consisting of 43.5 million rentable square feet, which were 96% leased, with a weighted-average remaining lease term of 6.3 years. Based on the percentage of annualized rental income on a straight-line basis as of September 30, 2026, approximately 76% of the Company’s properties were located in the U.S. and Canada and approximately 24% were located in Europe. In addition, as of September 30, 2026, the Company’s portfolio was comprised of 51% Industrial & Distribution properties,26% Retail properties and 23% Office properties. The percentages are calculated using annualized straight-line rent converted from local currency into the U.S. Dollar (“USD”) as of September 30, 2026. The straight-line rent includes amounts for tenant concessions.
Substantially all of our business is conducted through Global Net Lease Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “OP”), a Delaware limited partnership, The Necessity Retail REIT Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “RTL OP”) and Modiv Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “MDV OP” and together with the OP and the RTL OP, the “OPs”), and each of their wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company has its own dedicated workforce, which manages the advisory and property management functions of the Company.
The Company’s properties are leased primarily to “Investment Grade” tenants, which includes both actual investment grade ratings of the tenant or guarantor, if available, or implied investment grade. Implied investment grade may include actual ratings of the tenant parent, guarantor parent (regardless of whether or not the parent has guaranteed the tenant’s obligation under the lease) or tenants that are identified as investment grade by using a proprietary Moody’s analytical tool, which generates an implied rating by measuring an entity’s probability of default.
Acquisition of Modiv Industrial, Inc.
On August 12, 2026 (the “Modiv Acquisition Date”), the Company, together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries, GNL Motion Merger Sub, LLC (“REIT Merger Sub”), the OP and GNL Motion OpCo Merger Sub, LLC (“OpCo Merger Sub”) consummated the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Modiv Industrial, Inc. (“Modiv”) and MDV OP. As a result, (i) Modiv merged with and into REIT Merger Sub with REIT Merger Sub continuing as the surviving entity (the “Modiv Merger”) and (ii) contemporaneously with the Modiv Merger, OpCo Merger Sub merged with and into MDV OP, with MDV OP being the surviving entity (such merger transaction, the “OpCo Merger” and, together with the Modiv Merger, the “Merger”). The acquisition of Modiv follows the completion of the Company’s disposition strategy, and added 40, primarily industrial net-lease, properties to its portfolio.
On the Modiv Acquisition Date, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (i) each outstanding share of Modiv’s Class C common stock, $0.001 par value per share, as of the Modiv Acquisition Date was converted into 1.975 shares of Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), (ii) each outstanding share of Modiv’s 7.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share, was repaid by the Company in cash equal to $25.00, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon and (iii) each outstanding Class C limited partnership interest in MDV OP (each, a “MDV OP Class C Unit”) was converted into 1.975 limited partnership interests in the OP designated as “OP Units” (“OP Units”) (as defined in the OP Agreement (defined below), and such OP Units issued at the effective time of the OpCo Merger, the “OpCo Merger Consideration OP Units”). Immediately prior to the time the OpCo Merger became effective, each outstanding unit of Class X limited partnership interest in the MDV OP was immediately vested in full and converted into one MDV OP Class C Unit. In addition, on the Modiv Acquisition Date, the Company repaid Modiv’s $23.7 million mortgage notes payable (the “Modiv Mortgage Notes Payable”) and Modiv’s $250 million credit facility term loan (the “Modiv Term Loan”).
Also, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company adopted an amendment (such amendment, the “OP Agreement Amendment”), to the OP’s Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, originally dated June 2, 2015 (as amended, the “OP Agreement”), to, among other things, (i) require the general partner to use commercially reasonable efforts in certain transactions to avoid causing limited partners to recognize gain for federal income tax purposes, and (ii) grant the OP the right, but not the obligation, to redeem any or all outstanding OP Units at certain redemption amounts in the form of cash or Common Stock, at the Company’s election, provided, that the redemption of any OpCo Merger Consideration OP Units pursuant to such call right shall be made in the form of Common Stock.

Note 2 —Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The information furnished includes all adjustments and accruals of a normal recurring nature, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year or any subsequent interim period.
The Company is separately reporting the results of operations of the 100 multi-tenant retail properties (the “Multi-Tenant Retail Portfolio”), which were sold to RCG Venture Holdings, LLC (“RCG”) in the first six months of 2025, as discontinued operations in its consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. Also, the Company is presenting any remaining assets and liabilities, which consist of various receivables and payables, separately in its consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. For additional information on the Multi-Tenant Retail Disposition (as defined below), see Note 3 — Multi-Tenant Retail Disposition.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 25, 2026. There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the OPs and their subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the other partners or members as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the OPs.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management makes significant estimates regarding revenue recognition, purchase price allocations to record investments in real estate, derivative financial instruments, hedging activities, equity-based compensation expenses, income taxes and fair value measurements, as applicable.
Noncontrolling Interests
The noncontrolling interests as of September 30, 2026 represent the portion of the equity in the OP that is not owned by the Company, which resulted from the issuance of OP Units as a portion of the consideration in the Merger. Noncontrolling interests are presented as a separate component of equity on the consolidated balance sheets and the related share of net income or loss is presented as net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Noncontrolling interests are allocated a share of net income or loss based on their share of equity ownership. For additional information on the Merger, see Note 1 —Organizationand Note 4 —Real Estate Investments, Net.
