Current report

On September 1, 2021, we entered into a $250.0 million at-the-market equity program (the “2021 ATM Program”). On September 14, 2023, we entered into a forward confirmation with respect to 7,500,000 shares of our common stock under the 2021 ATM Program. On June 26, 2024, we partially physically settled 4,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $16.43 per share under such forward confirmation for net proceeds of approximately $65.3 million, net of sales commissions and offering costs of $0.7 million. 1,983,711 shares remain unsettled under the forward confirmation as of June 30, 2024. We may physically settle this forward confirmation (by the delivery of shares of common stock) and receive proceeds from the sale of those shares on one or more forward settlement dates, which shall occur no later than September 13, 2024.

Current report

During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company was the victim of a criminal scheme involving a business email compromise of an employee that led to two fraudulent transfers totaling $3.3 million to a third-party impersonating one of our development partners. The result was a $2.8 million loss, net of insurance recoveries.

Current report

•Property expenses. Property expenses increased $0.5 million to $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase is primarily attributed to the increase in the number of operating properties, including combined net increases of reimbursable property expenses of $0.4 million, of which $0.2 million and $0.2 million were related to reimbursable property taxes and reimbursable common area maintenance costs, respectively.

Current report

Other (expense) income, net. Other (expense) income, net decreased by $2.7 million to $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The net increase to expense is primarily related to a transfer fraud loss of $2.8 million, net of insurance recoveries, $0.5 million of losses associated with property damages related to flooding, offset by $0.5 million of proceeds received from the settlement of a lease escrow agreement. Refer to “Other Events” above for further detail on the transfer fraud loss.

Current report

Net loss. Net loss increased $1.5 million to a net loss of $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from a net loss of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Net loss increased primarily due to increases in interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, provisions for impairment, a decrease in the net gain on the sales of real estate, and net expense associated with the transfer fraud loss, as set forth above. These decreases are offset by increases in additional rental revenues primarily due to the growth in the size of our real estate investment portfolio, in addition to increased interest income associated with our mortgage loans receivable.

Current report

Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

Current report

Interest expense, net. Interest expense increased by $4.3 million to $13.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase is primarily attributed to an increase of $5.5 million of interest incurred under our 2029 Term Loan, an increase of $1.6 million of interest incurred under our 2027 Term Loan, and an increase of $0.5 million of loan fee amortization. This is offset by a decrease of $1.0 million of interest incurred under our Revolver primarily due to a decrease in average borrowings outstanding during the respective periods, $2.0 million in amortization of deferred gains on interest rate swaps, and an increase of $0.3 million of interest capitalized on our property developments.

Current report

Other (expense) income, net. Other (expense) income, net increased by $3.1 million to $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The net increase to expense is primarily related to a transfer fraud loss of $2.8 million, net of insurance recoveries, $0.9 million of losses associated with property damages related to flooding and foundation issues, offset by $0.5 million of proceeds received from the settlement of a lease escrow agreement. Refer to “Other Events” above for further detail on the transfer fraud loss.

Previous wording

We are an internally managed real estate company that acquires, owns, invests in and manages a diversified portfolio of single-tenant, retail commercial real estate subject to long-term net leases with high credit quality tenants across the United States. As of March 31, 2024, we owned or had investments in 628 single-tenant retail net leased properties that were diversified by tenant, industry and geography, including 88 different tenants, across 26 retail sectors in 45 states. This excludes 16 property developments where rent has yet to commence. We focus on tenants in industries where a physical location is critical to the generation of sales and profits, with a focus on necessity goods and essential services in the retail sector, including home improvement, auto parts, drug stores and pharmacies, general retail, grocers, convenience stores, discount stores, and quick-service restaurants, all of which we refer to as defensive retail industries. As of March 31, 2024, our investments generated ABR 1 of $140.3 million. Approximately 71% of our ABR is from investment grade 2 credit rated tenants and an additional 13% of our ABR is derived from tenants with an investment grade profile 3. Exclusive of mortgage loans receivable, our portfolio was 100% occupied with a weighted average remaining lease term (“WALT”) of 9.2 years, which we believe provides us with a strong stable source of recurring cash flow from our portfolio.

While the Federal Reserve had been raising interest rates in an effort to lower inflation throughout 2022 and the first half of 2023, rates have remained unchanged for nearly a year and there continues to be uncertainty in 2024 as to whether rates will be maintained or potentially cut, and the timing of potential cuts, leading to uncertainties in the financing market and broader economy.

Previous wording

Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased by $8.2 million to $37.7 million from $29.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 which is attributed to an increase in the number of our operating leases and properties securing our mortgage loans. The increase includes additional cash rental receipts of $6.9 million, combined with net increases of property expense reimbursements of $0.1 million, an increase of $1.5 million related to interest income on mortgage loans receivable, and an increase in straight-line rental revenue of $0.2 million.

Current wording

Previous wording

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $2.3 million to $6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase is primarily attributed to an increase of $2.3 million of interest incurred under the 2029 Term Loan executed on July 3, 2023, an increase of $0.8 million of interest incurred under the 2027 Term Loan (amendment and restatement of the 2024 Term Loan on June 15, 2023), offset by a net decrease of less than $0.1 million under the Revolver as a result of a decrease in average borrowings outstanding which was offset by higher interest rates. An additional increase of $0.3 million was attributable to increased loan fee amortization. This is offset by $1.0 million in amortization of deferred gains on interest rate swaps and $0.2 million of increased capitalized interest on our property developments.

Current wording

Interest expense, net. Interest expense increased by $2.1 million to $7.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from $5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase is primarily attributed to an increase of $3.2 million of interest incurred under our $250.0 million senior unsecured term loan (the “2029 Term Loan”), an increase of $0.8 million of interest incurred under our $175.0 million senior unsecured term loan (the “2027 Term Loan”), and an increase of $0.3 million of loan fee amortization.

Previous wording

•Property Expenses. Property expenses increased $0.2 million to $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase is primarily attributed to the increase in the number of operating properties, including combined net increases of reimbursable property expenses, including $0.3 million of reimbursable property taxes, offset by a decrease of $0.3 million of reimbursable common area maintenance costs. Additionally, non-reimbursable expenses increased by $0.1 million, primarily consisting of roof repairs.

Current wording

•Property expenses. Property expenses increased $0.6 million to $8.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $7.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

•General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $0.8 million to $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase is primarily due to an increase in employee severance of $0.8 million, including cash severance of $0.5 million and the expense associated with the accelerated vesting of stock-based compensation of $0.3 million, an increase of $0.4 million of stock-based compensation, offset by a decrease of $0.2 million of payroll expenses, and other combined net decreases of $0.2 million. While our general and administrative expenses will continue to rise in some measure as our portfolio grows, we expect that such expenses as a percentage of our portfolio will decrease over time due to efficiencies and economies of scale.

Current wording

•General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $0.8 million to $11.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $10.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase is primarily due to employee severance of $1.4 million, including cash severance of $0.9 million and the expense associated with the accelerated vesting of stock-based compensation of $0.5 million, and an increase of $0.5 million of stock-based compensation. These expenses were offset by decreases of $0.4 million of payroll expenses and $0.4 million of bonus expenses, decreases of $0.2 millions of corporate insurance premiums, and other combined net decreases of $0.1 million. While our general and administrative expenses will continue to rise in some measure as our portfolio grows, we expect that such expenses as a percentage of our portfolio will decrease over time due to efficiencies and economies of scale.

Previous wording

Net income. Net income decreased $0.4 million to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 from $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Net income decreased primarily due to increases in provisions for impairment, interest expense, and depreciation and amortization expense, offset by increases in gains on sales of real estate and additional rental revenues primarily due to the growth in the size of our real estate investment portfolio, including interest income associated with our mortgage loans receivable.

Current wording

Net (loss) income. Net (loss) income decreased $2.0 million to a net loss of $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from net income of $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Net (loss) income decreased primarily due to increases in interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, provisions for impairment, and net expense associated with the transfer fraud loss, as set forth above. These decreases are offset by an increase in the net gain on the sales of real estate, increases in additional rental revenues primarily due to the growth in the size of our real estate investment portfolio, in addition to increased interest income associated with our mortgage loans receivable.

This was offset by an increase in rental receipts of $6.9 million and an increase in mortgage loan receivable interest of $1.5 million.

•General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses were $5.3 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The increases within general and administrative expense were primarily related to employee severance of $0.6 million, including cash severance of $0.4 million and the expense associated with the accelerated vesting of stock-based compensation of $0.2 million, and an increase of $0.1 million of stock-based compensation. These expenses were offset by decreases of $0.3 million of payroll expenses and $0.5 million of bonus expenses, and other combined net decreases of $0.1 million. While our general and administrative expenses will continue to rise in some measure as our portfolio grows, we expect that such expenses as a percentage of our portfolio will decrease over time due to efficiencies and economies of scale.
