Notes to Orion Properties Inc. Consolidated Financial Statements F-
Note 1 – Organization
Organization
Orion Properties Inc. (the “Company”, “Orion”, “we” or “us”) is an internally managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) engaged in the ownership, acquisition, and management of a diversified portfolio of office properties located in high-quality suburban markets across the United States and leased primarily on a single-tenant net lease basis to creditworthy tenants. The Company’s portfolio is comprised of traditional office properties, as well as governmental, medical office, flex/laboratory and R&D and flex/industrial properties. On March 5, 2025, the Company changed its name from Orion Office REIT Inc. to Orion Properties Inc. to better describe its broader investment strategy to shift its portfolio concentration over time away from traditional office properties, towards more dedicated use assets that have an office component. The Company defines dedicated use assets as those that include a substantial specialized use component such as government, medical, laboratory and research and development, and flex operations, and would therefore not be considered traditional office properties.
The Company was initially formed as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Realty Income Corporation (“Realty Income”). Following completion of the merger transaction involving Realty Income and VEREIT, Inc. (“VEREIT”) on November 1, 2021, Realty Income contributed the combined business comprising certain office real properties and related assets previously owned by subsidiaries of Realty Income, and certain office real properties and related assets previously owned by subsidiaries of VEREIT (the “Separation”), to the Company and its operating partnership, Orion Properties LP (“Orion OP”), and on November 12, 2021, effected a special distribution to its stockholders of all the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the “Distribution”).
Following the Distribution, the Company became an independent and publicly traded company, and its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, trades on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol “ONL.” The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, commencing with its initial taxable year ended December 31, 2021.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company owned and operated 69 operating properties with an aggregate of 7.9 million leasable square feet located in 29 states. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company split the properties located in Amherst, New York and Denver, Colorado, each containingtwo buildings, into four separate properties for reporting purposes. Also during the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company commenced classifying certain of its properties which are being repositioned, redeveloped, developed or held for sale as non-operating properties rather than operating properties, resulting inseven properties being removed from the presentation of the Company’s portfolio of operating properties as of December 31, 2024.
In addition, the Company owns an equity interest in OAP/VER Venture, LLC (the “Arch Street Joint Venture”), an unconsolidated joint venture with an affiliate of Arch Street Capital Partners, LLC (“Arch Street Capital Partners”). As of December 31, 2024, the Arch Street Joint Venture owned a portfolio consisting ofsix properties totaling approximately 1.0 million leasable square feet located withinsix states.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company presented herein include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Orion OP, and a consolidated joint venture and are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The portion of the consolidated joint venture not owned by the Company is presented as non-controlling interest in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income (loss) and statements of equity.
For legal entities being evaluated for consolidation, the Company must first determine whether the interests that it holds and fees it receives qualify as variable interests in the entity. A variable interest is an investment or other interest that will absorb portions of an entity’s expected losses or receive portions of the entity’s expected residual returns. The Company’s evaluation includes consideration of fees paid to the Company where the Company acts as a decision maker or service provider to the entity being evaluated. If the Company determines that it holds a variable interest in an entity, it evaluates whether that entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). VIEs are entities where investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or where equity investors, as a group, lack one or more of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance,
(b) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity; or (c) the right to receive the expected returns of the entity. The Company consolidates entities that are not VIEs if it has a majority voting interest or other rights that result in effectively controlling the entity.
The Company then qualitatively assesses whether it is (or is not) the primary beneficiary of a VIE, which is generally defined as the party who has a controlling financial interest in the VIE. Consideration of various factors include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and its obligation to absorb losses from or right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company continually evaluates the need to consolidate VIEs based on standards set forth in U.S. GAAP.
Per Share Data
Income (loss) per basic share of common stock is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted income (loss) per share of common stock considers the effect of potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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 real estate impairments and purchase price allocations.
Spin Related
Spin related expenses are expensed as incurred. Such expenses are primarily comprised of the legal and professional fees associated with the formation and organization of the Company, the merger transactions involving Realty Income and VEREIT and the Distribution. Such costs also include expenses related to the fair value of the warrants issued to the Arch Street Partner and one of its affiliates during the year ended December 31, 2021.
Leases
Lessor
At the inception of a new lease arrangement for which the Company is the lessor, including new leases that arise from amendments, the Company assesses the terms and conditions to determine the proper lease classification. When the terms of a lease effectively transfer control of the underlying asset, the lease is classified as a sales-type lease. When a lease does not effectively transfer control of the underlying asset to the lessee, but the Company obtains a guarantee for the value of the asset from a third party, the Company classifies the lease as a direct financing lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases. As of December 31, 2024, none of the Company’s leases were classified as sales-type leases or direct financing leases.
Lessee
To account for leases for which the Company is the lessee, contracts must be analyzed upon inception to determine if the arrangement is, or contains, a lease. A lease conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Lease classification tests and measurement procedures are performed at the lease commencement date. When the terms of a lease effectively transfer control of the underlying asset, the lease is classified as a finance lease, otherwise it is classified as an operating lease.
The lease liability is initially measured as the present value of the lease payments over the lease term, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate is readily determinable; otherwise, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used. The incremental borrowing rate is determined based on the estimated rate of interest that the lessee would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term at an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The lease term is the noncancelable period of the lease and includes any renewal and termination options the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The lease liability balance is amortized using the effective interest method. The lease liability is remeasured when the contract is modified, upon the resolution of a contingency such that variable payments become fixed or if the assessment of exercising an extension, termination or purchase option changes.
The right-of-use asset balance is initially measured as the lease liability amount, adjusted for any lease payments made prior to the commencement date, initial direct costs, estimated costs to dismantle, remove, or restore the underlying asset and incentives received.
Revenue Recognition
Rental Revenue
For operating leases with minimum scheduled rent increases, the Company recognizes rental revenue on a straight-line basis, including the effect of any free rent periods, over the lease term when collectability of lease payments is probable. Variable lease payments are recognized as rental revenue in the period when the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occur.
Certain of the Company’s leases also contain provisions for tenants to reimburse the Company for real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance and other property operating expenses. Such reimbursements are included in rental revenue on a gross basis. Property operating expenses paid directly by tenants are recorded on a net basis (i.e., treated as fully offset by an identical amount of assumed reimbursement revenue) and, therefore, are not included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent, straight-line rent and property operating expense reimbursements and determines collectability by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. The review includes a binary assessment of whether or not substantially all of the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement are probable of collection. For leases that are deemed probable of collection, revenue continues to be recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as cash is received and the Company reduces rental revenue for any straight-line rent receivables. The Company recognizes all changes in the collectability assessment for an operating lease as an adjustment to rental revenue. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded a reduction to rental revenue of less than $0.1 million for income not probable of collection and $1.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2022.
Periodically the Company receives reimbursements from previous tenants for certain end of lease obligations that are recognized in rental revenue on a cash basis or when the amounts are definitively agreed upon. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized $3.3 million of such reimbursements. No such amounts were recognized during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Rental revenue also includes lease termination income collected from tenants to allow for the tenants to settle their lease obligations and/or to vacate their space prior to their scheduled termination dates. The Company recognized lease termination income of $2.0 million, $4.3 million and $1.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Amortization of above and below-market leases and lease incentives is also included in rental revenue and is discussed further in Note 3 – Real Estate Investments and Related Intangibles.
Fee Income from Unconsolidated Joint Venture
The Company provides various services to the Arch Street Joint Venture in exchange for market-based fees. Total asset and property management fees earned in connection with this entity was $0.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Real Estate Investments
The Company records acquired real estate at cost when such acquisitions qualify as asset acquisitions and makes assessments as to the useful lives of depreciable assets. The Company considers the period of future benefit of the asset to determine the appropriate useful lives. Depreciation is computed using a straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 35 years for buildings, five to 20 years for building fixtures and improvements and the remaining lease term for intangible lease assets and liabilities.
Allocation of Purchase Price of Real Estate Assets
For acquisitions that qualify as asset acquisitions, the Company allocates the purchase price or total consideration exchanged, inclusive of acquisition costs of acquired properties to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their relative estimated fair values. Tangible assets consist of land, buildings, fixtures and improvements on an as-if-vacant basis. The Company utilizes various estimates, processes and information to determine the as-if vacant property value. Identifiable intangible assets and liabilities consist of any above-market and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases and other identified intangible assets and assumed liabilities (including ground leases, if applicable). The Company’s purchase price allocations are developed utilizing third-party appraisal reports, industry standards and management experience. The Company also considers information obtained about each property as a result of its pre-acquisition due diligence, as well as subsequent marketing and leasing activities, in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and intangible liabilities assumed.
The aggregate value of intangible assets related to in-place leases is primarily the difference between the property valued with existing in-place leases adjusted to market rental rates and the property valued as if vacant. Factors considered by the Company in its analysis of the in-place leases include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up period for each property, taking into account current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up period. The Company also estimates costs to execute similar leases, including leasing commissions and tenant improvement allowances. The value of in-place leases is amortized over the remaining non-cancelable term of the respective leases at acquisition. If a tenant terminates its lease, then the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value is charged to expense.
Above-market and below-market in-place lease values for owned properties are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease, including any bargain renewal periods. A bargain renewal period is a provision in a lease which allows a lessee, at its option, to renew a lease at a rate that is sufficiently lower than fair market lease rates at the date such option is exercisable such that exercise of the option appears, at the inception of the lease, to be reasonably certain. Above-market leases are amortized as a reduction to rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Below-market leases are amortized as an increase to rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases, including any bargain renewal periods.
The determination of the fair values of the real estate assets and liabilities acquired requires the use of significant assumptions with regard to the current market rental rates, rental growth rates, capitalization and discount rates, interest rates and other variables. The use of alternative estimates may result in a different allocation of the Company’s purchase price, which could materially impact the Company’s results of operations.
Assets Held for Sale
The Company classifies a real estate investment as held for sale when certain criteria are met in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Upon classifying a real estate investment as held for sale, the Company will no longer recognize depreciation or amortization expense related to the depreciable assets of the property. Assets held for sale are recorded at the lower of carrying value or estimated fair value, less the estimated cost to dispose of the assets. See Note 3 – Real Estate Investments and Related Intangibles for further discussion regarding properties held for sale.
If circumstances arise that the Company previously considered unlikely and, as a result, the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the Company will reclassify the property as held and used. The Company measures and records a property that is classified as held and used at the lower of (i) its carrying value before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation and amortization expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used or (ii) the estimated fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell.
Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture
The Company accounts for its investment in the Arch Street Joint Venture arrangement using the equity method of accounting as the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating and financing policies of the investment. The equity method of accounting requires the investment to be initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for the Company’s share of equity in the joint venture’s earnings and distributions. The Company records its proportionate share of net income (loss) from the Arch Street Joint Venture in equity in loss of unconsolidated joint venture, net in the consolidated statements of operations. See Note 3 – Real Estate Investments and Related Intangibles for further discussion on the Company’s investment in the Arch Street Joint Venture.
The Company is required to determine whether an event or change in circumstances has occurred that may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of its investment in the Arch Street Joint Venture. If an event or change in circumstance has occurred, the Company is required to evaluate its investment in the Arch Street Joint Venture for potential impairment and determine if the carrying value of its investment exceeds its fair value. An impairment charge is recorded when an impairment is deemed to be other-than-temporary. To determine whether an impairment is other-than-temporary, the Company considers whether it has the intent and ability to hold the investment until the carrying value is fully recovered. The evaluation of an investment in an unconsolidated joint venture for potential impairment requires the Company’s management to exercise significant judgment and to make certain assumptions. The use of different judgments and assumptions could result in different conclusions. No impairments of the Arch Street Joint Venture were identified during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 or 2022.
Impairments
Real Estate Assets
The Company performs impairment review procedures, primarily through continuous monitoring of events and changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying value of its real estate assets may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators that the Company considers include, but are not limited to, decrease in a property’s net operating cash flows, bankruptcy or other credit concerns of a property’s major tenant or tenants, such as history of late payments, rental concessions and other factors, as well as significant decreases in a property’s revenues due to lease terminations, vacancies or reduced lease rates. When impairment indicators are identified or if a property is considered to have a more likely than not probability of being disposed, the Company assesses the recoverability of the assets by determining whether the carrying value of the assets will be recovered through the undiscounted future cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. U.S. GAAP requires the use of the expected holding period of the properties when assessing recoverability. In the event that such expected undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, the Company will adjust the real estate assets to their respective fair values and recognize any impairment loss. Generally, fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis and recent comparable sales or leasing transactions. The assumptions and uncertainties utilized in the evaluation of the impairment of real estate assets are discussed in Note 5 – Fair Value Measures.
Right-of-Use Assets
The Company’s impairment assessment for right-of-use assets is consistent with the impairment analysis for the Company’s other long-lived assets. No impairments of right-of-use assets were identified during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 or 2022. See Note 5 – Fair Value Measures for further discussion.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in bank accounts, as well as investments in highly-liquid funds with original maturities of three months or less. The Company deposits cash with high quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to an insurance limit of $250,000. At times, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents may exceed federally insured levels. Although the Company bears risk on amounts in excess of those insured by the FDIC, it has not experienced and does not anticipate any losses due to the high quality of the institutions where the deposits are held.
Restricted Cash
The Company had $41.6 million in restricted cash as of December 31, 2024 and $34.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, primarily comprised of reserves held by the lender under the CMBS Loan (as defined in Note 6 – Debt, Net) for future rent concessions and tenant improvement allowances. Restricted cash is included in other assets, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Deferred Financing Costs
Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, legal fees and other costs associated with obtaining commitments for financing. Deferred financing costs, other than those associated with the Revolving Facility (as defined in Note 6 – Debt, Net), are presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Deferred financing costs related to the Revolving Facility are included in other assets, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing costs are amortized to interest expense over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are written off when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in connection with potential financial transactions that are not completed are expensed in the period in which it is determined the financing will not be completed.
Derivative Instruments
The Company may use derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, caps, collars, treasury locks, options and forwards to hedge all or a portion of the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings. The Company’s interest rate management objectives are intended to limit the impact of interest rate fluctuations on earnings and cash flows and to manage the Company’s overall borrowing costs. To accomplish this objective, the Company has used and intends to continue to use derivative financial instruments as part of its cash flow hedging strategy. The Company does not intend to utilize derivatives for trading or speculative purposes or for purposes other than interest rate risk management. The use of derivative financial instruments carries certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements are not able to perform under the agreements. To mitigate this risk, the Company only enters into derivative financial instruments with counterparties with high credit ratings and with major financial institutions with which the Company may also have other financial relationships. The Company does not anticipate that any of the counterparties will fail to meet their obligations.
The Company records all derivatives in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary under U.S. GAAP to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.
The accounting for subsequent changes in the fair value of these derivatives depends on whether each has been designated and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment. If the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting treatment, any changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments is recognized immediately in other income, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). If the derivative is designated and qualifies for cash flow hedge accounting treatment, the change in fair value of the derivative is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). Unrealized gains and losses in other comprehensive income (loss) are reclassified to interest expense when the related hedged items impact earnings.
Loss Contingencies
The Company records a liability in the consolidated financial statements for loss contingencies when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount is reasonably estimable. If the reasonable estimate of a known or probable loss is a range, and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the minimum amount of the range is accrued. If a material loss is reasonably possible but not known or probable, and is reasonably estimable, the estimated loss or range of loss is disclosed.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2021. To maintain the Company’s qualification as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and excluding any net capital gain to its stockholders. However, the Company is still subject to certain state and local income, franchise, property, and other taxes in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company may also be subject to federal income taxes on certain income and federal excise taxes on its undistributed income.
The Company provides for income taxes in accordance with current authoritative accounting and tax guidance. The tax provision or benefit related to significant or unusual items is recognized in the quarter in which those items occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws, rates or tax status is recognized in the quarter in which the change occurs. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for or benefit from income taxes may change as new events occur, additional information is obtained or the tax environment changes.
During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized state and local income and franchise tax expense of $0.2 million, $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively. State and local income and franchise tax expense is included in provision for income taxes in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
The Company regularly analyzes its income tax positions in the jurisdictions in which it operates and only recognizes the income tax effect in the financial statements when certain criteria regarding uncertain tax positions have been met. The Company believes that its material income tax positions would more likely than not be sustained upon examination by the relevant taxing authorities. Therefore, no provisions related to material uncertain income tax positions have been recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022. Any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits would be recognized in provision for income taxes in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Segment Reporting
The Company operates inone business segment: commercial real estate. This segment is characterized as owning, managing and leasing commercial real estate assets under long-term agreements. The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) of the Company is the chief executive officer. The CODM reviews net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, when assessing performance and making operating decisions, including the allocation of resources. The CODM uses net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders as it informs comparative period trends for the forecasting process and is the baseline measurement for any additional measures of profit or loss of the Company’s consolidated financial results. Additionally, the CODM reviews the following significant expenses when measuring segment performance: property operating expenses for properties that were fully vacant or became fully vacant during the reporting period (“Vacant Property Operating Expenses”) and general and administrative expenses.
Segment revenues, profit or loss and general and administrative expenses are all disclosed in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022. Vacant Property Operating Expenses of $16.3 million, $9.1 million and $7.4 million are included in property operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
Asset information for the segment is not used by the CODM to measure performance but is disclosed in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company does not have intra-entity sales or transfers, and its revenues have been generated in and all long-lived assets are located within the United States.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Subtopic 220-40, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures). ASU 2024-03 serves to improve disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and provide detailed information about expense categories commonly presented in cost of sales, research and development and selling, general, and administrative expenses, including but not limited to purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and depletion. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods with annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statements.

Property Acquisitions
During each of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2022, the Company acquired, forno consideration, the fee simple interest inone parcel of land in connection with the maturity of the tax advantaged bond and ground lease structure on each of the parcels. As a result of the transactions, $3.5 million and $4.7 million that were previously classified as a finance lease right-of-use assets with respect to such land parcels previously subject to the ground leases were reclassified from other assets, net to land in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2022.
Also during the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company acquired fee simple, controlling financial interest inone real property and the improvements thereon including a 97,000 square foot flex/laboratory and R&D facility located in San Ramon, California for a gross purchase price of $34.6 million and external acquisition-related expenses of $0.1 million that were capitalized.

Consolidated Joint Venture
The Company had an interest inone consolidated joint venture that ownedone property as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the consolidated joint venture had total assets of $24.5 million and $27.6 million, respectively, of which $22.6 million and $23.5 million, respectively, were real estate investments, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization.

However, in accordance with the joint venture agreement, the Company has the ability to control the operating and financing policies of the consolidated joint venture and the joint venture partner must obtain the Company’s approval for any major transactions. The Company and the joint venture partner are subject to the provisions of the joint venture agreement, which includes provisions for when additional contributions may be required to fund certain cash shortfalls.
Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture
The following is a summary of the Company’s investment in the Arch Street Joint Venture, as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 (dollars in thousands):
| Ownership % (1) · Number of Properties · Carrying Value of Investment · Equity in Loss, Net | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year Ended | |||||||
| Investment · December 31, 2024 · December 31, 2024 · December 31, 2023 · December 31, 2024 · December 31, 2023 · December 31, 2022 | |||||||
| Arch Street Joint Venture (2) | 20% | 6 | $11,822 | $13,549 | $(740) | $(435) | $(524) |
(1)The Company’s ownership interest reflects its legal ownership interest. The Company’s legal ownership interest may, at times, not equal the Company’s economic interest because of various provisions in the joint venture agreement regarding capital contributions, distributions of cash flow based on capital account balances and allocations of profits and losses. As a result, the Company’s actual economic interest (as distinct from its legal ownership interest) in certain of the properties could fluctuate from time to time and may not wholly align with its legal ownership interest.
(2)The total carrying value of the Company’s investment in the Arch Street Joint Venture was less than the underlying equity in net assets by less than $0.1 million as of December 31, 2024, and greater than the underlying equity in net assets by $0.4 million as of December 31, 2023. This difference is related to the recognition of the fair value of the investment in the Arch Street Joint Venture in connection with the Separation and the Distribution. The difference in fair value and carrying value of the investment was allocated based on the underlying assets and liabilities of the Arch Street Joint Venture and is being amortized over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets and liabilities in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies.
The non-recourse mortgage notes associated with the Arch Street Joint Venture were scheduled to mature on November 27, 2024, withtwo successiveone-year options to extend the maturity until November 27, 2026. On November 22, 2024, the Arch Street Joint Venture repaid $3.4 million of principal on the mortgage notes to satisfy the 60% maximum loan-to-value extension condition and effected the first loan extension option, which extended the maturity date of the mortgage notes 12 months to November 27, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, there was $131.6 million outstanding under the mortgage notes and the Company’s proportionate share was $26.3 million. The mortgage notes have a variable interest rate and during the 12-month extension term the spread on a SOFR (the secured overnight financing rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York) loan is 2.60% per annum (increased from 1.60% per annum), and in the case of a base rate loan, the spread is unchanged at 0.50% per annum. The Arch Street Joint Venture has entered into an interest rate cap agreement that caps the SOFR rate at 5.50% per annum during the 12-month extension term.
The Company provided a member loan to the Arch Street Joint Venture of $1.4 million in connection with the partial repayment of the Arch Street Joint Venture mortgage notes to satisfy the maximum 60% loan-to-value extension condition. During February 2025, the Company made an additional member loan of $8.3 million to fund leasing costs related to a lease extension that was completed forone of the properties in the Arch Street Joint Venture portfolio. As part of the terms of the recent extension of the Arch Street Joint Venture mortgage notes, the mortgage lender is expected to re-appraise the property where the lease was extended in February 2025, and the Company is also committed to make an additional member loan as and if needed to repay principal on the mortgage notes to continue to satisfy the 60% loan-to-value extension condition. The Company’s member loan to the Arch Street Joint Venture, which had $9.2 million receivable as of March 5, 2025, earns interest at 15% per annum and is non-recourse and unsecured, and structurally subordinate to the Arch Street Joint Venture mortgage notes. Interest and principal are payable monthly solely out of the excess cash from the joint venture after payment of property operating expenses, interest and principal on the Arch Street mortgage notes and other joint venture expenses and excess proceeds from the sale of any of the joint venture properties.

Note 5 – Fair Value Measures
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the periods indicated below, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those instruments fall (in thousands):
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Balance as of December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Derivative liabilities | — | 15 | — | 15 |
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Balance as of December 31, 2023 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Derivative liabilities | — | 264 | — | 264 |
Derivative Liabilities– The Company’s derivative financial instruments comprise interest rate collar agreements entered into in order to hedge interest rate volatility with respect to the Company’s borrowings with an aggregate notional amount of $60.0 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 (as described in Note 6 – Debt, Net). The valuation of derivative instruments is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated into the fair values to account for the Company’s potential nonperformance risk and the performance risk of the counterparties.
Although the Company determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with those derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. However, as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the Company’s derivatives. As a result, the Company determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
Certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence of impairment.
Real Estate and Other Investments– The Company performs quarterly impairment review procedures for real estate investments, right-of-use assets and its investment in the Arch Street Joint Venture, primarily through continuous monitoring of events and changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable.
The following table summarizes our provisions for impairment during the periods indicated below (dollars in thousands). The impairment charges reflect changes in the Company’s future cash flow assumptions for agreed-upon or estimated sales proceeds with respect to real estate assets that were expected to be sold as well as changes to assumptions with regard to management’s intent to sell or lease the real estate assets.
| Year Ended December 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | 2022 | |
| Number of properties | 12 | 8 | 18 |
| Carrying value of impaired properties | $120,469 | $68,215 | $142,748 |
| Provisions for impairment | (47,552) | (33,112) | (66,359) |
| Estimated fair value | $72,917 | $35,103 | $76,389 |
The Company estimates fair values using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs and uses a combined income and market approach, specifically using discounted cash flow analysis and/or recent comparable sales transactions. The evaluation of real estate assets for potential impairment requires the Company’s management to exercise significant judgment and make certain key assumptions, including the following: (1) capitalization rates; (2) discount rates; (3) number of years the property will be held; (4) property operating expenses; and (5) re-leasing assumptions including the number of months to re-lease, market rental revenue and required tenant improvements. There are inherent uncertainties in making these estimates such as market conditions and performance and sustainability of the Company’s tenants.
For the Company’s impairment tests for the real estate assets during the year ended December 31, 2024, the fair value measurements fornine properties were determined based on sales prices under definitive agreements, two properties were determined by a weighted average discount rate of 9.3% and weighted average capitalization rate of 8.8%, andone was determined based on an estimated sales price based on market data. During the year ended December 31, 2024, impairment charges of $33.0 million were recorded for held and used properties, $8.6 million for held for sale properties and $6.0 million for disposed properties.
For the Company’s impairment tests for the real estate assets during the year ended December 31, 2023, the fair value measurements forseven properties were determined based on sales prices under definitive agreements andone property was determined by a discount rate of 9.0% and capitalization rate of 8.5%. During the year ended December 31, 2023, impairment charges of $5.9 million were recorded for held and used properties and $27.2 million for disposed properties.
For the Company’s impairment tests for the real estate assets during the year ended December 31, 2022, the fair value measurements for 17 properties were determined by applying an estimated sales price based on market data andone property was determined by applying a discount rate of 8.5% and capitalization rate of 8.0%. During the year ended December 31, 2022, impairment charges of $39.5 million were recorded for held and used properties, $0.2 million for held for sale properties and $26.7 million for disposed properties.
The following tables present certain of the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of the periods indicated below, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those assets fall (in thousands):
| Level 1 | Level 2 (1) | Level 3 (1) | Balance as of December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Assets of properties held and used | $— | $— | $22,903 | $22,903 |

| Assets of properties held and used | $— | $— | $5,402 | $5,402 |
(1)The fair value of the level 2 category was derived using negotiated sales prices with third parties and the fair value of the level 3 category was derived using discounted cash flow analysis and management estimates of selling prices.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets due to their short-term nature.

Credit Agreement
In connection with the Separation and the Distribution, on November 12, 2021, the Company, as parent, and Orion OP, as borrower, entered into (i) a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) providing for athree-year, $425.0 million senior revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”), including a $25.0 million letter of credit sub-facility, and atwo-year, $175.0 million senior term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and the lenders and issuing banks party thereto and (ii) a credit agreement (the “Bridge Credit Agreement”) providing for asix-month, $355.0 million senior bridge term loan facility (the “Bridge Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto.
In February 2022, as further described below, the Company refinanced the Bridge Facility in full with the $355.0 million CMBS Loan (defined below), and the Bridge Credit Agreement was terminated. In June 2023, as further described below, the Term Loan Facility was repaid and retired with borrowings under the Revolving Facility and, as of December 31, 2024, $119.0 million of principal amount was outstanding under the Revolving Facility with $231.0 million available for future borrowings thereunder, including the $25.0 million letter of credit sub-facility.
The Company and Orion OP have entered into three amendments to the Credit Agreement. The purpose of the first amendment entered into in December 2022 was to change the benchmark rate for borrowings under the Credit Agreement from LIBOR (the London interbank offered rate as administered by the ICE Benchmark Administration) to SOFR (the secured overnight financing rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York). The purpose of the second amendment entered into in June 2023 was to repay and retire $175.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan Facility with borrowings from the Revolving Facility which was undrawn at the time of the second amendment, provide Orion OP with the option to extend the maturity of the Revolving Facility for an additional 18 months to May 12, 2026 from November 12, 2024 and to effect certain other modifications. On May 3, 2024, the Company entered into a third amendment to the Credit
Agreement which resulted in a permanent $75.0 million reduction in the capacity of the Revolving Facility to $350.0 million from $425.0 million, while making a proportional reduction in the minimum value of the unencumbered asset pool required under the Credit Agreement to $500.0 million from $600.0 million and certain other modifications to financial covenants. On May 16, 2024, the Company elected its option to extend the maturity of the Revolving Facility to May 12, 2026.
The interest rate applicable to the loans under the Revolving Facility may be determined, at the election of Orion OP, on the basis of Daily Simple SOFR, Term SOFR or a base rate, in the case of a SOFR loan, plus a SOFR adjustment of 0.10% per annum, and in the case of a SOFR loan or a base rate loan, plus an applicable margin of 3.25% for SOFR loans and 2.25% for base rate loans. Loans under the Revolving Facility may be prepaid and reborrowed, and unused commitments under the Revolving Facility may be reduced, at any time, in whole or in part, by Orion OP, without premium or penalty (except for SOFR breakage costs).
In December 2022, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $175.0 million, which effectively fixed the interest rate on $175.0 million of principal under the Revolving Facility (or, until June 29, 2023, the Term Loan Facility) at 3.92% per annum until November 12, 2023. Upon the scheduled expiration of the interest rate swap agreements, the Company entered into interest rate collar agreements on a total notional amount of $60.0 million to hedge against interest rate volatility on the Revolving Facility. Under the agreements, the benchmark rate for the Revolving Facility will float between 5.50% per annum and 4.20% per annum on $25.0 million, and 5.50% per annum and 4.035% per annum on $35.0 million, effective from November 13, 2023 until May 12, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, the weighted average effective interest rate of the Revolving Facility was 7.66%.
To the extent that amounts under the Revolving Facility remain unused, Orion OP is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolving Facility in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum of the unused portion of the Revolving Facility.
The Revolving Facility is guaranteed pursuant to a guaranty by the Company and, subject to certain exceptions, substantially all of Orion OP’s existing and future subsidiaries (including substantially all of its subsidiaries that directly or indirectly own unencumbered real properties), other than certain joint ventures and subsidiaries that own real properties subject to certain other indebtedness (such subsidiaries of Orion OP, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”).
The Revolving Facility is secured by, among other things, first priority pledges of the equity interests in the Subsidiary Guarantors.
The Revolving Facility requires that Orion OP comply with various covenants, including covenants restricting, subject to certain exceptions, liens, investments, mergers, asset sales and the payment of certain dividends. Pursuant to the second amendment described above, if, on any day, Orion OP has unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in excess of $25.0 million (excluding amounts that are then designated for application or use and are subsequently used for such purposes within 30 days), Orion OP will use such excess amount to prepay loans under the Revolving Facility, without premium or penalty and without any reduction in the lenders’ commitment under the Revolving Facility.
In addition, the Revolving Facility giving effect to the modifications pursuant to the second amendment described above, requires that Orion OP satisfy the following financial covenants:
ratio of total debt to total asset value of not more than 0.60 to 1.00;
ratio of adjusted EBITDA to fixed charges of not less than 1.50 to 1.00;
ratio of secured debt to total asset value of not more than 0.40 to 1.00;
ratio of unsecured debt to unencumbered asset value of not more than 0.60 to 1.00;
ratio of net operating income from all unencumbered real properties to unsecured interest expense of not less than 2.00 to 1.00; and
the unencumbered asset value maintained by Orion OP must be at least $500.0 million.
Pursuant to the second amendment described above, if the ratio of unsecured debt to unencumbered asset value exceeds 0.35 to 1.00 as of the end oftwo consecutive fiscal quarters, Orion OP will be required, within 90 days and subject to cure rights, to grant the administrative agent a first priority lien on all the properties included in the pool of unencumbered assets (other than properties identified for disposition by the Company so long as such properties are sold within one year of such identification).
As of December 31, 2024, Orion OP was in compliance with the Revolving Facility financial covenants.
The Revolving Facility includes customary representations and warranties of the Company and Orion OP, which must be true and correct in all material respects as a condition to future extensions of credit under the Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility also includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable grace period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations of Orion OP under the Revolving Facility to be immediately due and payable and foreclose on the collateral securing the Revolving Facility.
CMBS Loan
On February 10, 2022, certain indirect subsidiaries of the Company (the “Mortgage Borrowers”) obtained a $355.0 million fixed rate mortgage note (the “CMBS Loan”) from Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (together with its successor, the “Lender”), which is secured by the Mortgage Borrowers’ fee simple or ground lease interests in 19 properties owned indirectly by the Company (collectively, the “Mortgaged Properties”). During March 2022, Wells Fargo effected a securitization of the CMBS Loan. The CMBS Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.971% per annum and matures on February 11, 2027.
The CMBS Loan requires monthly payments of interest only and all principal is due at maturity. The proceeds of the CMBS Loan were used to repay the Bridge Facility. Upon closing of the CMBS Loan, the Mortgage Borrowers funded $35.5 million of loan reserves primarily for future rent concessions and tenant improvement allowances under the leases with respect to the 19 Mortgaged Properties. These amounts, as well as the transaction expenses incurred in connection with the CMBS Loan, were funded with cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Facility. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Mortgage Borrowers funded an additional $9.4 million of loan reserves for future rent concessions and tenant improvement allowances agreed to as part of the extension ofone of the leases in the CMBS collateral pool.
The CMBS Loan is secured by, among other things, first priority mortgages and deeds of trust granted by the Mortgage Borrowers and encumbering the Mortgaged Properties.
The CMBS Loan is generally not freely prepayable by the Mortgage Borrowers without payment of certain prepayment premiums and costs. The CMBS Loan may be prepaid in whole, but not in part, except as provided in the loan agreement governing the CMBS Loan (the “CMBS Loan Agreement”), at any time, subject to the payment of a yield maintenance premium and the satisfaction of other terms and conditions set forth in the CMBS Loan Agreement. Further, releases of individual properties are permitted in connection with an arm’s length third party sale upon repayment of the Release Price (as defined in the CMBS Loan Agreement) for the applicable individual property and subject to payment of the applicable yield maintenance premium and the satisfaction of other terms and conditions set forth in the CMBS Loan Agreement. The CMBS Loan may be prepaid in full without premium or penalty beginning in May 2026 (nine months prior to maturity).
The CMBS Loan Agreement also contains customary cash management provisions, including certain trigger events (such as failure of the Mortgage Borrowers to satisfy a minimum debt yield of 8.0%) which allow the Lender to retain any excess cash flow as additional collateral for the Loan, until such trigger event is cured.
In connection with the CMBS Loan Agreement, the Company (as the guarantor) delivered a customary non-recourse carveout guaranty to the Lender (the “Guaranty”), under which the Company guaranteed the obligations and liabilities of the Mortgage Borrowers to the Lender with respect to certain non-recourse carveout events and the circumstances under which the CMBS Loan will be fully recourse to the Mortgage Borrowers, and which includes requirements for the Company to maintain a net worth of no less than $355.0 million and liquid assets of no less than $10.0 million, in each case, exclusive of the values of the collateral for the CMBS Loan. As of December 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.
The Mortgage Borrowers and the Company also provided a customary environmental indemnity agreement, pursuant to which the Mortgage Borrowers and the Company agreed to protect, defend, indemnify, release and hold harmless the Lender from and against certain environmental liabilities relating to the Mortgaged Properties.
The CMBS Loan Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Mortgage Borrowers and the Company. The CMBS Loan Agreement also includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable grace period, would permit the Lender to, among other things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations of the Mortgage Borrowers to be immediately due and payable and foreclose on the Mortgaged Properties.
San Ramon Loan
On November 7, 2024, an indirect subsidiary of the Company (the “San Ramon Borrower”) obtained an $18.0 million fixed rate mortgage note (the “San Ramon Loan”) from RGA Americas Investments LLC (the “San Ramon Lender”) secured by the fee simple interest in the San Ramon, California property acquired in September 2024 (the “San Ramon Property”). The San Ramon Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.90% per annum and matures on December 1, 2031.
The San Ramon Loan requires monthly payments of interest only and all principal is due at maturity and is generally not freely prepayable by the San Ramon Borrower until December 2026, and thereafter without payment of certain prepayment premiums and costs. In connection with the San Ramon Loan, the Company (as guarantor) delivered a customary non-recourse carveout guaranty, under which the Company guaranteed the obligations and liabilities of the San Ramon Borrower under the San Ramon Loan with respect to certain non-recourse carveout events and the circumstances under which the San Ramon Loan will be fully recourse to the San Ramon Borrower. The San Ramon Borrower and the Company also provided a customary environmental indemnity agreement, pursuant to which the San Ramon Borrower and the Company agreed to protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless the San Ramon Lender from and against certain environmental liabilities related to the San Ramon Property.
The loan agreement governing the San Ramon Loan (the “San Ramon Loan Agreement”) includes customary representations, warranties and covenants of the San Ramon Borrower and the Company. The San Ramon Loan Agreement also includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable grace period, would permit the Lender to, among other things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations of the San Ramon Borrower to be immediately due and payable and foreclose on the San Ramon Property.

Note 7 – Derivatives and Hedging Activities
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had outstanding derivative agreements with aggregate notional amounts of $60.0 million, which were designated as cash flow hedges under U.S. GAAP. The interest rate derivative agreements comprise interest rate collar agreements entered into in order to hedge interest rate volatility with respect to the Company’s borrowings under the Revolving Facility. Under the agreements, the benchmark rate for the Revolving Facility will float between 5.50% per annum and 4.20% per annum on $25.0 million, and 5.50% per annum and 4.035% per annum on $35.0 million, effective from November 13, 2023 until May 12, 2025.
The Company was previously party to derivative agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $175.0 million, which were also designated as cash flow hedges under U.S. GAAP. The interest rate derivative agreements, which expired on November 12, 2023, comprised interest rate swap agreements which effectively fixed the interest rate on the Company’s borrowings under the Revolving Facility (or, until June 29, 2023, the Term Loan Facility) until November 12, 2023.
The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments designated as a cash flow hedges as well as its classification in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of the periods indicated below (in thousands):
| Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments | Balance Sheet Location | December 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Interest rate collars | Other liabilities, net | $(15) | $(264) |
During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded net unrealized gains of $0.2 million, $0.1 million and $7.8 million, respectively, for changes in the fair value of its cash flow hedges in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company reclassified previous net gains of $6.7 million and $1.8 million, respectively, from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income into interest expense as a result of the hedged transactions impacting earnings. No such amounts were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2024.
During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that $0.1 million will be reclassified from other comprehensive income as an increase to interest expense.
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
As of each of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company hadno derivatives that were not designated as qualifying hedging relationships.

Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies
Leasing
As part of its ordinary re-leasing activities, the Company has agreed and anticipates that it will continue to agree to provide rent concessions to tenants and incur leasing costs with respect to its properties, including amounts paid directly to tenants to improve their space and/or building systems, or tenant improvement allowances, landlord agreements to perform and pay for certain improvements, and leasing commissions. These rent concession and leasing cost commitments could be significant and are expected to vary due to factors such as competitive market conditions for leasing of commercial office space and the volume of square footage subject to re-leasing by the Company.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company had the following estimated total outstanding leasing costs commitments (in thousands):
| Total (1) | |
|---|---|
| Tenant improvement allowances | $64,274 |
| Reimbursable landlord work (2) | 6,478 |
| Non-reimbursable landlord work (2) | 7,577 |
| Leasing commissions | 323 |
| Total | $78,652 |
(1)Outstanding commitments do not include rent concessions as such amounts are recorded as a component of straight-line rent receivable, net, in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
(2)Landlord work represents specific improvements agreed to within the lease agreement to be performed by the Company, as landlord, as a new and non-recurring obligation and in order to induce the tenant to enter into a new lease or lease renewal or extension. Outstanding commitments for reimbursable and non-reimbursable landlord work include estimates and are subject to change.
The actual amount the Company pays for tenant improvement allowances may be lower than the amount agreed upon in the applicable lease and will depend upon the tenant’s use of the capital on the agreed upon timeline. The timing of the Company’s cash outlay for tenant improvement allowances is significantly uncertain and will depend upon the applicable tenant’s schedule for the improvements and corresponding use of capital, if any.
For assets financed on the CMBS Loan, the Company has funded reserves with the lender for tenant improvement allowances and rent concessions. As of December 31, 2024, total restricted cash of $41.5 million was reserved for outstanding leasing costs, including $30.1 million for tenant improvement allowances and $11.4 million for rent concession commitments, and is included in other assets, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Litigation
From time to time, the Company may be party to various legal proceedings which it believes are routine in nature and incidental to the operation of its business. The Company does not believe that any such legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect upon its consolidated position or results of operations.
Environmental Matters
In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate, the Company may potentially be liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. The Company has not been notified by any governmental authority of any non-compliance, liability or other claim, and is not aware of any other environmental condition, in each case, that it believes will have a material adverse effect upon its consolidated position or results of operations.
Note 11 – Leases

Lessee
The Company is the lessee under ground lease arrangements and corporate office leases, which meet the criteria under U.S. GAAP for an operating lease. As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s operating leases had remaining lease terms ranging from 0.9 years to 60.0 years, which includes options to extend. Under the operating leases, the Company pays rent and may also pay variable costs, including property operating expenses and common area maintenance. The weighted-average discount rate used to measure the lease liability for the Company’s operating leases was 3.72% as of December 31, 2024. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used an estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date or the lease guidance adoption date, as applicable, in determining the present value of lease payments.
Operating lease costs were $1.2 million, $1.3 million and $1.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. No cash paid for operating lease liabilities was capitalized during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

On November 1, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock until December 31, 2025, as market conditions warrant (the “Share Repurchase Program”). Repurchases may be made through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, structured or derivative transactions, including accelerated stock repurchase transactions, or other methods of acquiring shares in accordance with applicable securities laws and other legal requirements. The Share Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to make any repurchases at a specific time or in a specific situation. Repurchases are subject to prevailing market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock, the Company’s liquidity and anticipated liquidity needs, financial performance and other conditions. Shares of common stock repurchased by the Company under the Share Repurchase Program, if any, will be returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of common stock.
The Company didnot repurchase any shares under the Share Repurchase Program during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2022.

As of December 31, 2024, the approximate dollar value of shares that remain available for repurchase under the Share Repurchase Program was $45.0 million.
Note 13– Equity-Based Compensation
The Company has an equity-based incentive award plan (the “Equity Plan”) for officers, other employees, non-employee directors and consultants who provide services to the Company. Awards under the Equity Plan are accounted for under U.S. GAAP as share-based payments. The expense for such awards is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. Under the Equity Plan, the Company may grant various types of awards, including restricted stock units that will vest if the recipient maintains employment with the Company over the requisite service period (the “Time-Based RSUs”) and restricted stock units that may vest in a number ranging from 0% to 100% of the total number of units granted, based on the Company’s total shareholder return measured on an absolute basis (“TSR-Based RSUs”) and based on certain operational performance metrics (“Metrics-Based RSUs” and collectively with the TSR-Based RSUs, “Performance-Based RSUs”), in each case for officers and other employees during athree-year performance period. The Company also granted Time-Based RSUs to its non-employee directors which are scheduled to vest on the earlier of theone-year anniversary of the grant date and the next annual meeting, subject to the recipient’s continued service with the Company.
Failure to satisfy the performance conditions for the Metrics-Based RSUs will result in the forfeiture of the units and, in the case of awards where the performance conditions were previously determined to be likely of achieving, a reversal of any previously recognized equity-based compensation expense. Failure to satisfy the market conditions for the TSR-Based RSUs will result in the forfeiture of the units but does not result in a reversal of previously recognized equity-based compensation expense, provided that the requisite service has been rendered. Forfeiture of Time-Based RSUs or Performance-Based awards due to the failure to meet the service requirements results in the reversal of previously recognized equity-based compensation expense. The Company adjusts for forfeitures of Time-Based RSUs and Performance-Based RSUs as they occur.
During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company granted Time-Based RSUs and/or Performance-Based RSUs to non-employee directors and officers and other employees of the Company. The fair value of the Time-Based RSUs is determined using the closing stock price on the grant date and is expensed over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis. The fair value of the TSR-Based RSUs is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation which takes into account multiple input variables that determine the probability of satisfying the required total shareholder return, and such fair value is expensed over the performance period. The fair value of the Metrics-Based RSUs is determined using the closing stock price on the grant date and is expensed over the requisite service period to the extent that the likelihood of achieving the performance metrics is probable. As of December 31, 2024, the Company determined that the likelihood of achieving some of the performance metrics was probable and, accordingly, the Company recognized compensation expense for such Metrics-Based RSUs and determined that the likelihood of achieving the remaining performance metrics was improbable and the Company recognized no compensation expense for the remaining Metrics-Based RSUs.
Time-Based RSUs and Performance-Based RSUs do not provide for any rights of a common stockholder prior to the vesting of such restricted stock units. Equity-based compensation expense related to Time-Based RSUs and Performance-Based RSUs for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $3.7 million, $2.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, total unrecognized compensation expense related to Time-Based RSUs and Performance-Based RSUs was approximately $4.1 million with an aggregate weighted-average remaining term of 1.7 years.
The following table details the activity of the Time-Based RSUs for the periods indicated below:
| Time-Based RSUs | Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share | |

| Forfeited | (201,625) | $16.33 |
| Unvested units, December 31, 2024 | 2,102,314 | $2.81 |
The Company was also required under U.S. GAAP to recognize equity-based compensation expense for awards to its employees who received grants of Realty Income time-based restricted stock units and stock options in connection with the Separation and the Distribution. Equity-based compensation expense related to such Realty Income equity-based compensation awards was less than $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, and was $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, there wasno remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to Realty Income time-based restricted stock units and stock options.
