Dear Mobile Stockholder:
You are cordially invited to the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Mobile Infrastructure Corporation (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) to be held on Wednesday, June 18, 2025, at 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time.
Our inaugural year was marked by purposeful growth and disciplined execution and underscored by our commitment to creating long-term value for our shareholders. Despite continued headwinds in the broader real estate sector, 2024 proved to be a pivotal year in which we made meaningful progress on key operational and strategic objectives.
Key Accomplishments in 2024
| 1. | Conversion of Leases to Management Contracts We successfully converted 29 of our 40 parking assets from lease arrangements to management contracts. This model gives us greater control over operating expenses, provides access to valuable consumer analytics, and enables us to optimize revenue potential. We plan to convert an additional 10 assets over the next two years, further enhancing our ability to make data-driven decisions. |
| 2. | Increased Focus on Monthly Contract Sales Despite ongoing industry-wide attrition in parking demand following the pandemic, our increased focus on growing monthly contract sales drove meaningful gains in 2024. Through proactive sales strategies, we captured previously unmet demand and further solidified our position as a leading provider of reliable parking solutions in competitive urban markets. |
| 3. | Improved Financial Position We continued to refine our capital structure, enhancing our financial flexibility and positioning ourselves to respond quickly to market shifts and pursue growth opportunities. For example, we secured a new line of credit to redeem preferred equity shares in cash rather than converting them to common stock. This approach helps prevent dilution of our common shareholders and better aligns our capital structure with our long-term growth strategy. |
| 4. | Execution of Portfolio Asset Rotation Strategy As part of our ongoing portfolio optimization, we sold three non-core parking assets at significant multiples of their net operating income. Two of these assets were acquired by buyers focused on real estate development, highlighting the intrinsic value of well-located parking assets. |
| 5. | Focus on Long-Term Shareholder Value In addition to focusing on near-term operating and financial performance, we are committed to building lasting value for our investors. By prioritizing high-quality assets, optimizing operational efficiencies, and capitalizing on key demand drivers, we believe our portfolio is well-positioned for long-term success. We also announced a $10 million share buyback program, which we believe represents a compelling opportunity for the Company to increase shareholder value. |
| 6. | Refinancing 2024 Maturities Despite challenging conditions in the financing market, we successfully completed three refinancings during the year, extending our debt maturity profile and strengthening our balance sheet. |
Progress in Our Markets
| ● | Downtown Residential Conversions We are witnessing an emerging trend of converting Class B downtown office space into residential apartments, offering significant potential for sustained revenue growth. A prime example is the Mercantile Building in Cincinnati, which began residential leasing in late 2024. As tenants continue to move in, demand for 24/7 parking access is increasing, driving higher utilization. At least six similar projects are underway in our core markets, with completion expected between now and 2027. |
| ● | Core Asset Strength Approximately half of our portfolio is classified as “core,” generating about 80% of our revenue and over 80% of our net operating income. The stability of these core assets provides a strong earnings foundation, enabling us to strategically evaluate and reposition non-core assets that no longer align with our long-term objectives. |
Accelerating Our 36-Month Asset Rotation Plan
Driven by in-depth analysis of future demand drivers and underlying land values, we are accelerating our portfolio optimization strategy over the next 36 months. This initiative includes the strategic divestiture of select non-core assets and the reinvestment of proceeds into larger, higher-yielding properties located in key markets with multiple demand drivers. Our leadership’s long tenure in the parking industry, well-established relationships, and our robust acquisition pipeline provide early access to exclusive opportunities for reinvestment. We believe this asset rotation plan will ultimately position us to further enhance portfolio performance and long-term resilience.
Looking Ahead
As we enter 2025 and beyond, we remain confident that our disciplined capital allocation, expanding data analytics capabilities, and proactive asset management will continue to strengthen BEEP’s competitive advantage. Our vision is to transform every parking asset into a strategic revenue center – delivering consistent returns across market cycles.
We are grateful for your continued confidence in BEEP and look forward to keeping you updated as we advance our growth strategy and work to create long-term shareholder value.
