Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Condensed and Unaudited)
| 1. ORGANIZATION | ||
Phillips Edison & Company, Inc. (“we,” the “Company,” “PECO,” “our,” or “us”) was formed as a Maryland corporation in October 2009. Substantially all of our business is conducted through Phillips Edison Grocery Center Operating Partnership I, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed in December 2009. We are a limited partner of the Operating Partnership, and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Phillips Edison Grocery Center OP GP I LLC, is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership.
We are a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that invests primarily in omni-channel grocery-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers that have a mix of creditworthy national, regional, and local retailers that sell necessity-based goods and services in strong demographic markets throughout the United States. In addition to managing our own shopping centers, our third-party investment management business provides comprehensive real estate and asset management services to three unconsolidated institutional joint ventures, in which we have partial ownership interests, and one private fund (collectively, the “Managed Funds”).
As of March 31, 2026, we wholly-owned 299 real estate properties. Additionally, we owned a 14 % interest in Grocery Retail Partners I LLC (“GRP I”), which owned 20 properties, a 20 % interest in Necessity Retail Venture LLC (“NRV”), which owned four properties, and a 31 % interest in Neighborhood Grocery Catalyst Fund LLC (“NGCF”), which owned three properties.
| 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | ||
Set forth below is a summary of the significant accounting estimates and policies that management believes are important to the preparation of our consolidated interim financial statements. Certain of our accounting estimates are particularly important for an understanding of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by management. For example, significant estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to the useful lives of assets; remaining hold periods of assets; recoverable amounts of receivables; initial valuations of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities, including goodwill, and related amortization periods of deferred costs and intangibles, particularly with respect to property acquisitions; and other fair value measurement assessments required for the preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements. As a result, these estimates are subject to a degree of uncertainty.
There were no changes to our significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2026. For a full summary of our significant accounting policies, refer to our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 10, 2026.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation—The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should refer to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, which are included in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods presented have been included in this Quarterly Report. Our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full year.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of the Operating Partnership and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (over which we exercise financial and operating control). The financial statements of the Operating Partnership are prepared using accounting policies consistent with our accounting policies. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.
Income Taxes—Our consolidated financial statements include the operations of wholly-owned subsidiaries that have jointly elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiary entities and are subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes at regular corporate tax rates. We recognized federal, state, and local income tax expense of $0.2 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. All income tax amounts are included in Other Expense, Net on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (“consolidated statements of operations”).
Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Pronouncements—There were no recently issued or adopted accounting pronouncements during the three months ended March 31, 2026 that impacted the Company.

| 3. LEASES | ||
Lessor—The majority of our leases are largely similar in that the leased asset is retail space within our properties, and the lease agreements generally contain similar provisions and features, without substantial variations. All of our leases are currently classified as operating leases. Lease income related to our operating leases was as follows (in thousands):

| Total rental income | $ | $ | |||||||||
(1)Includes rental income related to lease payments before assessing for collectibility.
(2)Variable payments are primarily related to tenant recovery income.
(3)Includes revenue adjustments to straight-line rent for tenants considered non-creditworthy.
(4)Includes general reserves as well as adjustments for tenants considered non-creditworthy for which we are recording revenue on a cash basis, per Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases.
Approximate future fixed contractual lease payments to be received under non-cancelable operating leases in effect as of March 31, 2026, assuming no new or renegotiated leases or option extensions on lease agreements, and including the impact of rent abatements and tenants who have been moved to the cash basis of accounting for revenue recognition purposes, were as follows (in thousands):

No single tenant comprised 10% or more of our aggregate annualized base rent (“ABR”) as of March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, our wholly-owned real estate investments in Florida, California, and Texas represented 11.9 %, 11.3 %, and 10.0 % of our ABR, respectively. As a result, the geographic concentration of our portfolio makes it particularly susceptible to adverse natural or economic events in the Florida, California, and Texas real estate markets.

(1)Interest rates are as of March 31, 2026.
(2)Our revolving credit facility and term loans carry an interest rate of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a spread. While some of the rates are fixed through the use of swaps, a portion of this debt is not subject to a swap, and thus is still indexed to SOFR.
(3)Includes the effects of derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (see Notes 7 and 12).
2026 Debt Activity—In January 2026, we extended the maturity of our $161.8 million term loan from January 2026 to January 2027.
In February 2026, we issued $350 million of 4.750 % senior notes due 2033 at an issue price of 99.920 % in an underwritten offering. The offering resulted in gross proceeds of $346.5 million, which were used to fully repay two term loans that were set to mature in January 2027 for $158 million and $165 million, respectively, with the remaining balance of $23.5 million used to pay down our revolving credit facility.
The 2026 senior notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by us.
Debt Allocation—The allocation of total debt between fixed-rate and variable-rate as well as between secured and unsecured, excluding market debt adjustments, discount on senior notes, and deferred financing expenses, net, and including the effects of derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 is summarized below (in thousands):

PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY MARCH 31, 2026 FORM 10-Q | 11 | ||||||||||
| 7. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES | ||
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives—We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We principally manage our exposure to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of our core business activities. We manage economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our debt funding, and through the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we enter into interest rate swaps to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and our known or expected cash payments principally related to our investments and borrowings.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk—Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for our making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated, and that qualify, as cash flow hedges are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with certain variable-rate debt. Amounts reported in AOCI related to these derivatives will be reclassified to Interest Expense, Net as interest payments are made on the variable-rate debt. During the next twelve months, we estimate that an additional $0.2 million will be reclassified from AOCI as a decrease to Interest Expense, Net.
The following is a summary of our interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (dollars in thousands):

| Amount of gain (loss) recognized in Other Comprehensive Income | $ | $ | ( | ||||||||
| Amount of gain reclassified from AOCI into Interest Expense, Net | ( | ( | |||||||||
Credit-risk-related Contingent Features—We have agreements with our derivative counterparties that contain provisions where, if we default, or are capable of being declared in default, on any of our indebtedness, we could also be declared to be in default on our derivative obligations. As of March 31, 2026, there were no derivatives with a fair value in a net liability position, which would include accrued interest but exclude any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements.

Litigation—We are involved in various claims and litigation matters arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which involve claims for damages. Many of these matters are covered by insurance, although they may nevertheless be subject to deductibles or retentions. Although the ultimate liability for these matters cannot be determined, based upon information currently available, we believe the resolution of such claims and litigation will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Environmental Matters—In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate, we may potentially be liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. In addition, we may own or acquire certain properties that are subject to environmental remediation. Depending on the nature of the environmental matter, the seller of the property, a tenant of the property, and/or another third party may be responsible for environmental remediation costs related to a property. Additionally, in connection with the purchase of certain properties, the respective sellers and/or tenants may agree to indemnify us against future remediation costs. We also carry environmental liability insurance on our properties that provides limited coverage for any remediation liability and/or pollution liability for third-party bodily injury and/or property damage

claims for which we may be liable. We are not currently aware of any environmental matters that we believe are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Captive Insurance—Our captive insurance company, Silver Rock Insurance, Inc. (“Silver Rock”), provides general liability insurance, wind, reinsurance, and other coverage to us and our GRP I, NRV, and NGCF joint ventures. We capitalize Silver Rock in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements.
Silver Rock establishes annual premiums based on the past loss experience of the insured properties. An independent third party was engaged to perform an actuarial estimate of projected future claims, related deductibles, and projected future expenses necessary to fund associated risk management programs. Premiums paid to Silver Rock may be adjusted based on this estimate, and such premiums may be reimbursed by tenants pursuant to specific lease terms.
As of March 31, 2026, we had three letters of credit outstanding totaling approximately $31.1 million to provide security for our obligations under Silver Rock’s insurance and reinsurance contracts.

General—The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters voted on by stockholders, including one vote per nominee in the election of our Board of Directors (the “Board”). Our charter does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.
At-the-Market Offering (“ATM”)—In February 2024, we entered into a sales agreement relating to the potential sale of shares of common stock pursuant to a continuous offering program. In accordance with the terms of the sales agreement, we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $250 million from time to time through our sales agents, or, if applicable, as forward sellers. We issued no 177 million of common stock remained available for issuance under the ATM program.

Under the terms of the Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, OP unit holders may elect to cause the Operating Partnership to redeem their OP units. The Operating Partnership controls the form of the redemption, and may elect to redeem OP units for shares of our common stock, provided that the OP units have been outstanding for at least one year , or for cash. As the form of redemption for OP units is within our control, the OP units outstanding as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are classified as Noncontrolling Interests within permanent equity on our consolidated balance sheets.

Tax Protection Agreement—Through our Operating Partnership, we are currently party to a tax protection agreement (the “2017 TPA”) with certain partners that contributed property to our Operating Partnership on October 4, 2017, among them certain of our executive officers, including Jeffrey S. Edison, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, under which the Operating Partnership agreed to indemnify such partners for tax liabilities that could accrue to them personally related to our potential disposition of certain properties within our portfolio. The 2017 TPA will expire on October 4, 2027. On July 19, 2021, we entered into an additional tax protection agreement (the “2021 TPA”) with certain of our executive officers and board members, including Mr. Edison. The 2021 TPA carries a term of four years and will become effective upon the expiration of the 2017 TPA. As of March 31, 2026, the potential “make-whole amount” on the estimated aggregate amount of built-in gain subject to protection under the agreements is approximately $113.3 million. The protection provided under the terms of the 2021 TPA will expire in 2031. We have not recorded any liability related to the 2017 TPA or the 2021 TPA on our consolidated balance sheets for any periods presented, nor recognized any expense since the inception of the 2017 TPA, owing to the fact that any potential liability under the agreements is controlled by us and we believe we will either (i) continue to own and operate the protected properties or (ii) be able to successfully complete tax-deferred exchanges under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (unless there is a change in applicable law) or complete other tax-efficient transactions to avoid any liability under the agreements.

Other Related Party Matters— As of March 31, 2026, we were the limited guarantor of $173.8 million, $102.7 million, and $31.7 million in mortgage loans secured by properties owned by GRP I, NRV, and NGCF, respectively. Our guaranties for the GRP I, NRV, and NGCF debt are limited to being the non-recourse carveout guarantor and the environmental indemnitor. Further, we are also party to agreements with each of GRP I, NRV, and NGCF, as applicable, in which any potential liability under such guaranties will be apportioned between us and GRP I, NRV, and NGCF based on our respective ownership percentages in the joint ventures. We had no liability recorded on our consolidated balance sheets for the guaranties as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
| 12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | ||
The following describes the methods we use to estimate the fair value of our financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities:
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable, and Accounts Payable—We consider the carrying values of these financial instruments to approximate fair value because of the short period of time between origination of the instruments and their expected realization.
Real Estate Investments—The purchase prices of the investment properties, including related lease intangible assets and liabilities, are allocated at estimated fair value based on Level 3 inputs, such as discount rates, capitalization rates, comparable sales, replacement costs, income and expense growth rates, and current market rents and allowances as determined by management.
Debt Obligations—We estimate the fair value of our revolving credit facility, term loans, secured portfolio of loans, and mortgages by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by our lenders using Level 3 inputs. The discount rates used approximate current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and credit quality, assuming the debt is outstanding through maturity and considering the debt’s collateral (if applicable). We have utilized market information, as available, or present value techniques to estimate the amounts required to be disclosed. We estimate the fair value of our senior unsecured notes by using quoted prices in active markets, which are considered Level 1 inputs.
The following is a summary of borrowings as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (in thousands):

Recurring and Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements—Our marketable securities and interest rate swaps are measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis, while certain real estate assets and liabilities are measured and recognized at fair value as needed. Fair value measurements that occurred as of and during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025 were as follows (in thousands):

PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY MARCH 31, 2026 FORM 10-Q | 15 | ||||||||||
Derivative Instruments—As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had an interest rate swap that fixed SOFR on portions of our unsecured term loan and revolving credit facilities.
All interest rate swap agreements are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including 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, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves.
To comply with the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, we incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, we have considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees.
Although we determined that the significant inputs used to value our derivatives fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our counterparties and our own credit risk utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties. However, as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and have determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Real Estate Asset Impairment—Our real estate assets are measured and recognized at fair value, less costs to sell for held-for-sale properties, on a nonrecurring basis dependent upon when we determine an impairment has occurred. There were no
On a quarterly basis, we employ a multi-step approach to assess our real estate assets for possible impairment and record any impairment charges identified. The first step is the identification of potential triggering events, such as significant decreases in occupancy or the presence of large dark or vacant spaces. If we observe any of these indicators for a shopping center, we then perform an additional screen test consisting of a years-to-recover analysis to determine if we will recover the net book value of the property over its remaining economic life based upon net operating income (“NOI”) as forecasted for the current year. In the event that the results of this first step indicate a triggering event for a center, we proceed to the second step, utilizing an undiscounted cash flow model for the center to identify potential impairment. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the net book value of the center as of the balance sheet date, we record an impairment charge based on the fair value determined in the third step. In performing the third step, we utilize market data such as capitalization rates and sales price per square foot on comparable recent real estate transactions to estimate the fair value of the real estate assets. We also utilize expected net sales proceeds to estimate the fair value of any centers that are actively being marketed for sale.
In addition to these procedures, we also review undeveloped or unimproved land parcels that we own for evidence of impairment and record any impairment charges as necessary. Primary impairment triggers for these land parcels are changes to our plans or intentions with regards to such properties, or planned dispositions at prices that are less than the current carrying values.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS AND DEFINED TERMS | ||
We use certain key performance indicators (“KPIs”), which include both financial and nonfinancial metrics, to measure the performance of our operations. We believe these KPIs, as well as the core concepts and terms defined below, allow our Board, management, and investors to analyze trends around our business strategy, financial condition, and results of operations in a manner that is focused on items unique to the retail real estate industry.
We do not consider our non-GAAP measures to be alternatives to measures required in accordance with GAAP. Certain non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance as they may not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, and they may not reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other income (expense), or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our shopping centers that could materially impact our results from operations. Additionally, certain non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an indication of our liquidity, nor as an indication of funds available to cover our cash needs, including our ability to fund distributions, and may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate our business in the manner currently contemplated. Accordingly, non-GAAP measures should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements and should not be viewed as more prominent measures of performance than net income (loss) or cash flows from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating similar non-GAAP measures, and accordingly, our non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other REITs.
PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY MARCH 31, 2026 FORM 10-Q | 18 | ||||||||||
Our KPIs and terminology can be grouped into three key areas:
PORTFOLIO—Portfolio metrics help management to gauge the health of our centers overall and individually.
•Anchor space—We define an anchor space as a space greater than or equal to 10,000 square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”).
•ABR—We use ABR to refer to the monthly contractual base rent at the end of the period multiplied by twelve months.
•ABR Per Square Foot (“PSF”)—This metric is calculated by dividing ABR by leased GLA. Increases in ABR PSF can be an indication of our ability to create rental rate growth in our centers, as well as an indication of demand for our spaces, which generally provides us with greater leverage during lease negotiations.
•GLA—We use GLA to refer to the total occupied and unoccupied square footage of a building that is available for tenants (whom we refer to as a “Neighbor” or our “Neighbors”) or other retailers to lease.
•Inline space—We define an inline space as a space containing less than 10,000 square feet of GLA.
•Leased Occupancy—This metric is calculated as the percentage of total GLA for which a lease has been signed regardless of whether the lease has commenced or the Neighbor has taken possession. High occupancy is an indicator of demand for our spaces, which generally provides us with greater leverage during lease negotiations.
•Underwritten incremental unlevered yield—This reflects the yield we target to generate from a project upon expected stabilization and is calculated as the estimated incremental NOI for a project at stabilization divided by its estimated net project investment. The estimated incremental NOI is the difference between the estimated annualized NOI we target to generate by a project upon stabilization and the estimated annualized NOI without the planned improvements. Underwritten incremental unlevered yield does not include peripheral impacts, such as lease rollover risk or the impact on the long-term value of the property upon sale or disposition. Actual incremental unlevered yields may vary from our underwritten incremental unlevered yield range based on the actual total cost to complete a project and its actual incremental NOI at stabilization.
LEASING—Leasing is a key driver of growth for our company.
•Comparable lease—We use this term to refer to a lease with consistent terms that is executed for substantially the same space that has been vacant less than twelve months.
•Comparable rent spread—This metric is calculated as the percentage increase or decrease in first-year ABR (excluding any free rent or escalations) on new or renewal leases (excluding options) where the lease was considered a comparable lease. This metric provides an indication of our ability to generate revenue growth through leasing activity.
•Cost of executing new leases—We use this term to refer to certain costs associated with new leasing, namely, leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs, and tenant concessions.
•Portfolio retention rate—This metric is calculated by dividing (i) the total square feet of retained Neighbors with current period lease expirations by (ii) the total square feet of leases expiring during the period. The portfolio retention rate provides insight into our ability to retain Neighbors at our shopping centers as their leases approach expiration. Generally, the costs to retain an existing Neighbor are lower than costs to replace with a new Neighbor.
•Recovery rate—This metric is calculated by dividing (i) total recovery income by (ii) total recoverable expenses during the period. A high recovery rate is an indicator of our ability to recover certain property operating expenses and capital costs from our Neighbors.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE—In addition to financial metrics calculated in accordance with GAAP, such as net income or cash flows from operations, we utilize non-GAAP metrics to measure our operational and financial performance. See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for further discussion on the following metrics.
•Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization for Real Estate (“Adjusted EBITDAre”)—To arrive at Adjusted EBITDAre, we adjust EBITDAre, as defined below, to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items including, but not limited to: (i) changes in the fair value of the earn-out liability; (ii) other impairment charges; (iii) adjustments related to our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures; (iv) transaction and acquisition expenses; and (v) realized performance income. We use EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre as additional measures of operating performance which allow us to compare earnings independent of capital structure and evaluate debt leverage and fixed cost coverage.
•Core Funds From Operations Attributable to Stockholders and OP Unit Holders (“Core FFO”)—To arrive at Core FFO, we adjust Nareit FFO, as defined below, to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items including, but not limited to: (i) depreciation and amortization of corporate assets; (ii) changes in the fair value of the earn-out liability; (iii) adjustments related to our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures; (iv) gains or losses on the extinguishment or modification of debt and other; (v) other impairment charges; (vi) transaction and acquisition expenses; and (vii) realized performance income. We believe Nareit FFO provides insight into our operating performance as it excludes certain items that are not indicative of such performance. Core FFO provides further insight into the sustainability of our operating performance and provides an additional measure to compare our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that may cause short-term fluctuations in net income (loss).
•EBITDAre—The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) defines EBITDAre as net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP before: (i) interest expense; (ii) income tax expense; (iii) depreciation and amortization; (iv) gains or losses from disposition of depreciable property; and (v) impairment write-downs of

depreciable property. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect EBITDAre on the same basis.
•Equity Market Capitalization—We calculate equity market capitalization as the total dollar value of all outstanding shares and OP Units using the closing price for the applicable date.
•Nareit FFO Attributable to Stockholders and OP Unit Holders (“Nareit FFO”)—Nareit defines Funds From Operations (“FFO”) as net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding: (i) gains (or losses) from sales of property and gains (or losses) from change in control; (ii) depreciation and amortization related to real estate; (iii) impairment losses on real estate and impairments of in-substance real estate investments in investees that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of the depreciable real estate held by the unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures; and (iv) adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We calculate Nareit FFO in a manner consistent with the Nareit definition.
•Net Debt—We calculate net debt as total debt, excluding discounts, market adjustments, and deferred financing expenses, less cash and cash equivalents.
•Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre—This ratio is calculated by dividing net debt by Adjusted EBITDAre (included on an annualized basis within the calculation). It provides insight into our leverage rate based on earnings and is not impacted by fluctuations in our equity price.
•Net Debt to Total Enterprise Value—This ratio is calculated by dividing net debt by total enterprise value, as defined below. It provides insight into our capital structure and usage of debt.
•NOI—We calculate NOI as total operating revenues, adjusted to exclude non-cash revenue items and lease buyout income, less property operating expenses and real estate taxes. NOI provides insight about our financial and operating performance because it provides a performance measure of the revenues and expenses directly involved in owning and operating real estate assets and provides a perspective not immediately apparent from net income (loss).
•Same-Center—We use this term to refer to a property, or portfolio of properties, owned for the entirety of both calendar year periods being compared.
•Total Enterprise Value—We calculate total enterprise value as our net debt plus our equity market capitalization on a fully diluted basis.
| OVERVIEW | ||
We are a REIT and one of the nation’s largest owners and operators of omni-channel grocery-anchored shopping centers. Our portfolio primarily consists of neighborhood centers anchored by the #1 or #2 grocer tenants by sales within their respective formats by trade area. Our Neighbors are a mix of national, regional, and local retailers that primarily provide necessity-based goods and services.
As of March 31, 2026, we owned equity interests in 326 shopping centers, including 299 wholly-owned shopping centers and 27 shopping centers owned through three unconsolidated joint ventures, which comprised approximately 36.9 million square feet in 31 states. In addition to managing our shopping centers, our third-party investment management business provides comprehensive real estate management services to the Managed Funds.

LEASE EXPIRATIONS—The following chart shows the aggregate scheduled lease expirations for our over 3,500 unique Neighbors, excluding our Neighbors who are occupying space on a temporary basis, after March 31, 2026 for each of the next ten years and thereafter for our wholly-owned properties and the prorated portion of those owned through our unconsolidated joint ventures:
Our ability to create rental rate growth generally depends on our leverage during new and renewal lease negotiations with prospective and existing Neighbors, which typically occurs when occupancy at our centers is high or during periods of economic growth and recovery. Conversely, we may experience rental rate decline when occupancy at our centers is low or during periods of economic recession, as the leverage during new and renewal lease negotiations may shift to prospective and existing Neighbors.
See “Results of Operations - Leasing Activity” below for further discussion of leasing activity.

| RESULTS OF OPERATIONS | ||
KNOWN TRENDS AND UNCERTAINTIES—We continue to operate in a resilient yet evolving retail real estate environment characterized by strong tenant demand, limited new supply, and sustained leasing momentum. Grocery-anchored shopping centers remain defensive, with healthy occupancy, stable foot traffic, and durable tenant performance; however, broader macroeconomic conditions continue to introduce uncertainty. Interest rate volatility may affect acquisition activity, redevelopment yields, and capital-market execution. Inflation has eased but remains uneven across categories, influencing operating expenses, construction costs, and retailer margins; in addition, energy and transportation costs may be volatile and could increase due to geopolitical instability, including international conflict. Regulatory and executive decisions regarding tariffs have created incremental uncertainty around sourcing and input costs for certain tenants, though to date we have observed minimal disruption to leasing activity or rent‑collection trends. Additionally, ongoing retailer rationalization, including periodic bankruptcy filings and strategic store closures, may create near-term downtime but also provide opportunities to re‑lease space at higher rents. Consumer behavior has remained broadly stable, supported by the essential-needs orientation of our centers; however, pressure on lower-income shoppers and any broader economic slowdown could impact retailer sales performance and, in turn, leasing decisions. We continue to monitor these trends, along with evolving insurance markets, property-tax environments, and regulatory developments, each of which could influence operating results, cash flows, or asset valuations in future periods.

Our basis for analyzing significant fluctuations in our results of operations generally includes review of the results of our same-center portfolio, non-same-center portfolio, and revenues and expenses from our management activities. We define our same-center portfolio as the 282 properties that were owned for the entirety of both calendar year periods being compared. We define our non-same-center portfolio as those properties that were not fully owned in both calendar year periods being compared owing primarily to real estate asset activity occurring after December 31, 2024, which includes eleven properties disposed of and 17 properties acquired. Below are explanations of the significant fluctuations in the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:
Rental Income increased $12.1 million primarily as follows:
•$6.4 million increase primarily related to our same-center portfolio as follows:
▪$3.7 million increase primarily due to a $0.52 increase in average minimum rent PSF and a 0.3% improvement in average occupancy;
▪$1.5 million increase primarily due to lease buyout income; and
▪$1.2 million increase primarily due to an increase in recoverable income attributed to an increase in common area maintenance spending.
•$5.7 million increase primarily related to our net acquisition activity.
Property Operating Expenses increased $3.1 million primarily as follows:
•$2.0 million increase from our same-center portfolio and corporate operating activities primarily due to higher compensation costs and an increase in utilities and common area maintenance spending; and
•$1.1 million increase primarily due to our net acquisition activity.
Real Estate Tax Expenses:
•The $1.0 million increase in real estate tax expenses is primarily due to our net acquisition activity.

SAME-CENTER NOI—Same-Center NOI is presented as a supplemental measure of our performance, as it highlights operating trends such as occupancy levels, rental rates, and operating costs for our same-center portfolio. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating Same-Center NOI, and accordingly, our Same-Center NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, Same-Center NOI represents the NOI for the 282 properties that were wholly-owned for the entirety of both calendar year periods being compared.
Same-Center NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance as it does not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other income (expense), or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties that could materially impact our results from operations.

NAREIT FFO AND CORE FFO—Nareit FFO is a non-GAAP financial performance measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. Core FFO is an additional financial performance measure used by us as Nareit FFO includes certain non-comparable items that affect our performance over time. We believe that Core FFO is helpful in assisting management and investors with assessing the sustainability of our operating performance in future periods.
Nareit FFO and Core FFO should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) under GAAP, as an indication of our liquidity, nor as an indication of funds available to cover our cash needs, including our ability to fund distributions. Core FFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate our business plan in the manner currently contemplated.
Accordingly, Nareit FFO and Core FFO should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements, and should not be viewed as more prominent measures of performance than net income (loss) or cash flows from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our Nareit FFO and Core FFO, as presented, may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs.

EBITDAre AND ADJUSTED EBITDAre—We use EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre as additional measures of operating performance which allow us to compare earnings independent of capital structure, determine debt service and fixed cost coverage, and measure enterprise value. Additionally, we believe they are a useful indicator of our ability to support our debt obligations.
EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss), as an indication of our liquidity, nor as an indication of funds available to cover our cash needs, including our ability to fund distributions. Accordingly, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements, and should not be viewed as more prominent measures of performance than net income (loss) or cash flows from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, as presented, may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs.
The following table presents our calculation of EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre (in thousands):

| LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES | ||
GENERAL—Aside from standard operating expenses, we expect our principal cash demands to be for:
•investments in real estate;
•cash distributions to stockholders;
•redevelopment and development projects;
•capital expenditures and leasing costs; and
•principal and interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness.
We expect our primary sources of liquidity to be:
•operating cash flows;
•borrowings from our unsecured revolving credit facility and proceeds from debt financings;
•proceeds from any equity offering activities;
•proceeds received from the disposition of properties; and
•available, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents.
At this time, we believe our current sources of liquidity are sufficient to meet our short- and long-term cash demands.
ATM Program—In February 2024, we entered into a sales agreement relating to the potential sale of shares of common stock pursuant to a continuous offering program. In accordance with the terms of the sales agreement, we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $250 million from time to time through our sales agents, or, if applicable, as forward sellers. We issued no shares of our common stock under this ATM program during the three months

(1)The revolving credit facility matures in January 2029, with options to extend the maturity for two additional six-month periods.

In February 2026, we issued $350 million of 4.750% senior notes due 2033 at an issue price of 99.920% in an underwritten offering.
The 2026 senior notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by us.
Debt Obligation Guarantees—At March 31, 2026, the Operating Partnership had issued and outstanding its unsecured senior notes due 2031, 2032, 2033, 2034, and 2035, all issued under effective registration statements. The obligations of the Operating Partnership to pay principal, premiums, if any, and interest on the unsecured senior notes due 2031, 2032, 2033, 2034, and 2035 are, and on any future debt securities of the Operating Partnership registered under an effective registration statement will be, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by us on a senior basis. As a result of the amendments to SEC Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X, subsidiary issuers of obligations guaranteed by the parent are not required to provide separate financial statements, provided that: (i) the subsidiary obligor is consolidated into the parent company’s consolidated financial statements; (ii) the parent guarantee is “full and unconditional”; and (iii) subject to certain exceptions as set forth below, the alternative disclosure required by Rule 13-01 of Regulation S-X is provided, which includes narrative disclosure and summarized financial information. We meet the conditions of this requirement and thus, are not presenting separate financial statements. Furthermore, as permitted under Rule 13-01(a)(4)(vi) of Regulation S-X, we have excluded the summarized financial information for the Operating Partnership because the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the Operating Partnership are not materially different than the corresponding amounts in our consolidated financial statements, and management believes such summarized financial information would be repetitive and would not provide incremental value to investors.

(2)Amounts reported are net of insurance proceeds of $0.1 million for property damage claims for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
We anticipate that obligations related to capital improvements, as well as development and redevelopment, in 2026 can be met with cash flows from operations, cash flows from dispositions, and/or borrowings on our unsecured revolving credit facility.
Generally, we expect our development and redevelopment projects to stabilize within 24 months. Our underwritten incremental unlevered yields on development and redevelopment projects are expected to range between 9%-12%. Our current in process projects represent an estimated total investment of $74.4 million. Actual incremental unlevered yields may vary from our underwritten incremental unlevered yield range based on the actual total cost to complete a project and its actual incremental annual NOI at stabilization. See “Key Performance Indicators and Defined Terms” above for further information.

(3)Total price of acquisitions includes closing costs less credits and assumed liabilities.
Subsequent to March 31, 2026, we acquired three properties for $58.9 million.

DISTRIBUTIONS—For each month beginning January 2026 through March 2026, we declared and paid monthly distributions of $0.1083 per common share and OP unit.
To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must make aggregate annual distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain, and which does not necessarily equal net income or loss as calculated in accordance with GAAP). We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the income that we distribute to our stockholders each year due to meeting the REIT qualification requirements. However, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income, property, or net worth and to federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income.
We have not established a minimum distribution level, and our charter does not require that we make distributions to our stockholders.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES—Our net cash provided by operating activities was primarily impacted by the following:
•Property operations—Most of our operating cash comes from rental and tenant recovery income received less property operating expenses, real estate taxes, and general and administrative costs paid. Property operations during the three months ended March 31, 2026 were positively impacted by a $4.1 million, or 3.5%, improvement in Same-Center NOI as compared to the same period in 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we had a net cash outlay of $36.4 million from changes in working capital as compared to a net cash outlay of $27.7 million during the same period in 2025. This change was primarily driven by the timing of interest payments resulting from our senior note issuances.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES—Our net cash used in investing activities was primarily impacted by the following:
•Real estate acquisitions—During the three months ended March 31, 2026, our acquisitions resulted in a total cash outlay of $126.4 million, as compared to a total cash outlay of $139.1 million during the same period in 2025.

•Investment in unconsolidated joint ventures—During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we invested $0.9 million in our unconsolidated joint ventures, as compared to $3.5 million during the same period in 2025.
•Investment in marketable securities—During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we had proceeds, net of investments, of $0.8 million from marketable securities through our captive insurance company, as compared to $1.5 million of investments during the same period in 2025.
FINANCING ACTIVITIES—Our net cash provided by financing activities was primarily impacted by the following:
•Debt borrowings and payments—During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we had $111.9 million and $159.6 million, respectively, in net borrowings primarily as a result of our net acquisition activity.
•Distributions to stockholders and OP unit holders—Cash used for distributions to common stockholders and OP unit holders increased $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to an increase in our distribution rate.
