As of August 8, 2024, we had pending agreements in place to sell one operating property and six non-operating properties for an aggregate gross sales price of $39.0 million. Our pending sale agreements are subject to a variety of conditions outside of our control, such as the buyer’s satisfactory completion of its due diligence and receipt of governmental approvals, and therefore, we cannot provide any assurance the transaction will close on the agreed upon price or other terms, or at all.

As of March 31, 2024, we owned and operated 75 office properties with an aggregate of 8.7 million leasable square feet located in 29 states with an occupancy rate of 75.3% and a weighted-average remaining lease term of 4.0 years. Including our pro rata share of leasable square feet and annualized base rent from the Arch Street Joint Venture, we owned an aggregate of 8.9 million leasable square feet with an occupancy rate of 75.8%, or 83.2% adjusted for properties that are currently under agreements to be sold, and a weighted-average remaining lease term of 4.1 years as of March 31, 2024.

As of June 30, 2024, following the reclassification of six properties as non-operating properties and the parcel split, we owned and operated 69 office properties with an aggregate of 8.0 million leasable square feet located in 29 states with an occupancy rate of 79.2% and a weighted-average remaining lease term of 4.2 years.

Previous wording

Our portfolio comprises primarily single-tenant leases, and tenant retention remains a significant challenge, as we have faced and will continue to face significant lease expirations the next few years. For example, leases representing approximately 22.7% and 13.2% of our annualized base rent are scheduled to expire in 2024 and 2025, respectively, and we may be unable to renew leases or find replacement tenants. Certain changes in office space utilization, including increased remote and hybrid work arrangements and tenants consolidating their real estate footprint, continue to impact the office leasing market. The utilization and demand for office space continue to face headwinds and the duration and ultimate impact of current trends on the demands for office space at our properties remains uncertain and subject to change. Accordingly, we do not yet know what the full extent of the impacts will be on our or our tenants’ businesses and operations or the long-term outlook for leasing our properties. Higher interest rates, inflationary pressures, geopolitical hostilities and tensions, and concerns that the U.S. economy may enter an economic recession have caused disruptions in the financial markets and these factors could adversely affect our and our tenants’ financial condition and the ability or willingness of our tenants to renew our leases or pay rent to us.

Previous wording

Our leasing and asset disposition activity since the completion of our distribution from Realty Income continues to be adversely impacted by a variety of market and property specific conditions. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the office leasing market has experienced significantly reduced demand for space and changes in space usage as tenants seek to attract employees back to the office, in newer, renovated buildings with more amenities. As of March 31, 2024, 59.3%, 35.0% and 5.7% of our office buildings by square feet were classified as class A, class B and class C, respectively, as determined by the most recent appraisals of the properties. In the current office environment, class B and class C buildings generally have been experiencing reduced demand and lease or sell at discounts to class A buildings and our tenants and prospective new tenants across our portfolio sometimes compare the cost and the value of leasing space in our building to the value of newer space with more amenities asking higher rent in other buildings in the market. The class of buildings we own may be negatively impacting our leasing velocity and pushing our leasing costs higher, and has negatively impacted our sales price on non-core asset dispositions.

Previous wording

We have incurred significant amounts of indebtedness and, therefore, are subject to the risks normally associated with debt financing, including that we may be unable to extend or refinance our debt obligations as they come due. Deteriorating office fundamentals, high interest rates and market sentiment towards the office sector may restrict our access to, and likely increase our cost of, capital as we seek to extend or refinance our debts. We intend to exercise our extension option to extend the maturity date our Revolving Facility until May 12, 2026, and upon doing so, our nearest debt maturity are the non-recourse mortgage notes associated with the Arch Street Joint Venture of $136.7 million as of March 31, 2024 which are scheduled to mature on November 27, 2024. The Arch Street Joint Venture has two successive one-year options to extend the maturity date until November 27, 2026, however, the extension options are subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including satisfaction of certain financial and operating covenants. The Arch Street Joint Venture may be unable to satisfy the extension conditions, and is also evaluating alternatives to refinance this obligation. We cannot provide any assurance that the Arch Street Joint Venture will be able to satisfy the extension conditions or otherwise extend or refinance the loan. If the Arch Street Joint Venture is unable to extend or refinance the mortgage notes, our investment in the Arch Street Joint Venture could be materially adversely affected.

On May 16, 2024, we exercised our option to extend the maturity date of our Revolving Facility for 18 months from November 12, 2024 to May 12, 2026. Upon exercising the extension, our nearest debt maturity is the non-recourse mortgage notes associated with the Arch Street Joint Venture of $136.4 million, which are scheduled to mature on November 27, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, our proportionate share of the non-recourse mortgage notes associated with the Arch Street Joint Venture was $27.3 million. The Arch Street Joint Venture has two successive one-year options to extend the maturity date until November 27, 2026, however, the extension options are subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including satisfaction of certain financial and operating covenants. The Arch Street Joint Venture may be unable to satisfy the extension conditions, and has preliminarily agreed with the existing lenders to extend the mortgage notes for one year and on other mutually acceptable terms, subject to definitive documentation and other conditions. We cannot provide any assurance that the Arch Street Joint Venture will be able to satisfy the extension conditions or reach final agreement with its lenders to extend the mortgage notes or otherwise refinance the mortgage notes. If the Arch Street Joint Venture is unable to extend or refinance the mortgage notes, our investment in the Arch Street Joint Venture could be materially adversely affected.

Previous wording

One of our main asset management strategies since the completion of our distribution from Realty Income has been to sell vacant and identified non-core assets that do not fit our long-term investment objectives. The sale of these assets will allow us to both reduce carry costs and avoid the uncertainty and significant capital expenditures associated with re-tenanting. We expect to continue this non-core asset disposition strategy in 2024. We cannot provide any assurance as to whether we will be able to sell non-core assets on favorable terms and in a timely manner, or at all.

Previous wording

We remain highly focused on leasing activity, given the 4.1 year weighted-average remaining lease term and the significant lease maturities which will occur across the portfolio over the next few years. If our tenants decide not to renew their leases, terminate their leases early or default on their leases, we will seek to re-lease the space to new tenants. We may not, however, be able to re-lease the space to suitable replacement tenants on a timely basis, or at all. Our properties may not be as attractive to existing or new tenants as properties owned by our competitors due to age of buildings, physical condition, lack of amenities or other similar factors. Even if we are able to renew leases with existing tenants or enter into new leases with replacement tenants, the terms of renewals or new leases, including the cost of required renovations, improvements or concessions to tenants, may be less favorable to us than current lease terms. As a result, our net income and ability to pay dividends to stockholders could be materially adversely affected. Further, if any of our properties cannot be leased on terms and conditions favorable to us, we may seek to dispose of the property; however, such property may not be marketable at a suitable price without substantial capital improvements, alterations, or at all, which could inhibit our ability to effectively dispose of those properties and could require us to expend capital to fund necessary capital improvements or alterations. In general, when we sell properties that are vacant or soon to be vacant, the valuation will be discounted to reflect that the new owner will bear carrying costs until the property has been leased up and take the risk that the property may not be leased up on a timely basis, favorable terms or at all.

Previous wording

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, three leases across two properties expired consisting of 424,000 square feet. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, we entered into a contract to sell one of the properties comprising approximately 96,000 square feet and expect that sale to close in the second quarter of 2024. We currently intend to re-tenant the other property comprising approximately 328,000 square feet over time. For the property we intend to re-let, the base rent per square foot under the lease at expiration was approximately $22.00 per square foot, and our estimate of market rent at this property is $25.00 to $28.00 per square foot. Our market rent estimates are based on a variety of assumptions and we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to re-let vacant space to new tenants on these or any other terms, in a timely manner, or at all. Our plans with respect to vacant properties are subject to change.

Current wording

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, five leases across four properties expired consisting of 597,000 square feet.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, two leases expired comprising a total of 173,000 square feet, including one lease where the tenant occupied all 172,000 square feet at the property. We currently intend to re-tenant the vacancy at this property. The base rent per square foot under the lease at expiration was approximately $21.00 per square foot, and our estimate of market rent at this property is $17.00 to $19.00 per square foot. Our market rent estimates are based on a variety of assumptions and we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to re-let vacant space to new tenants on these or any other terms, in a timely manner, or at all.

The decrease in rental revenue of $3.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily due to the impact from a decrease in our overall occupied square footage due to scheduled vacancies of $4.0 million and the impact from property dispositions of $2.0 million. Our portfolio occupancy rate was 75.3% and we had 75 properties with an aggregate of 8.7 million leasable square feet as of March 31, 2024, as compared to a portfolio occupancy rate of 87.2% and 81 properties with an aggregate of 9.5 million leasable square feet as of March 31, 2023.

Current wording

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $10.7 million and $7.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2023 primarily due to the full depreciation of $15.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 of the buildings at a six-property campus in Deerfield, Illinois. This accelerated depreciation was the result of the adjustment to the useful life of the assets due to management’s plans to demolish the buildings. The increase of depreciation and amortization expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same periods in 2023 was partially offset by the full amortization of certain intangible assets as a result of leases expiring in accordance with their terms and early terminations of $5.1 million and $8.8 million, respectively.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we entered into new and renewal leases as summarized in the following tables (dollars and square feet in thousands):

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

(1)Represents weighted average percentage increase or decrease in (i) the annualized monthly cash amount charged to the applicable tenants (including monthly base rent receivables and certain fixed contractually obligated reimbursements by the applicable tenants, which may include estimates) as of the commencement date of the new lease term (excluding any full or partial rent abatement period) compared to (ii) the annualized monthly cash amount charged to the applicable tenants (including the monthly base rent receivables and certain fixed contractually obligated reimbursements by the applicable tenants, which may include estimates) as of the expiration date of the prior lease term. Contractually obligated reimbursements include estimated amortization of certain landlord funded improvements under our United States Government leases. If a space has been or will be vacant for more than 12 months prior to the commencement of a new lease or was previously otherwise not generating full cash rental revenue, the lease will be excluded from the rental rate change calculation.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

(3)Includes tenant improvement allowances and base building allowances, leasing commissions and free rent (includes estimates of property operating expenses, where applicable). Beginning in 2024, we have updated this calculation to also include estimates for certain reimbursable and non-reimbursable landlord funded improvements, and have applied this change retrospectively for comparison purposes. For our multi-tenant properties, we have allocated the estimated cost of landlord funded improvements that benefit the property generally and/or the common areas and not the tenant’s premises in particular, to the applicable lease based on square footage of the relevant tenant.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere

(5)Weighted average lease term does not include specified periods of the stated lease term during which a tenant has the right to terminate their space without a termination fee, or "non-firm terms." The total weighted average lease term for new leases and renewals executed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 would be 4.9 years and 10.2 years, respectively, if such non-firm terms were included.
