Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue Growth: Total revenue increased by approximately 2.6% year-over-year, driven by rental income growth from new acquisitions and lease escalations.
• Increased Expenses: Total expenses rose by $1.3 million, primarily due to a $1.22 million increase in net interest expense. This spike was caused by costs associated with the prepayment of a loan in May 2025, including a $926,398 loss on extinguishment of debt.
• Derivative Valuation: The company recorded a $415,825 loss on derivative valuation (interest rate swaps) for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to a gain of $425,546 in the prior year period.
• Equity Position: Stockholders' equity turned negative, moving from a positive $9.07 million in the prior year to a deficit of $1.36 million, largely due to the accumulated net losses and the suspension of common stock dividends in July 2024.
• Portfolio Activity: The company sold two properties (Starbucks in Tampa and Auburn University in Huntsville) for a combined gross proceeds of $10.65 million, resulting in a net cash inflow from investing activities of $10.33 million.

Guidance, Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items

• Going Concern Warning: Management has expressed substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months due to recurring losses, projected cash requirements, and current liquidity levels. The company's ability to continue depends on executing plans to refinance debt, extend preferred equity terms, and optimize the portfolio.
• Nasdaq Compliance Risk: The company is currently below the $2.5 million stockholders' equity minimum required for Nasdaq listing. Additionally, the common stock bid price has fallen below $1.00 for six consecutive business days, risking a deficiency notice if it remains below this threshold for 30 days.
• Dividend Suspension: The Board suspended regular monthly dividends to common stockholders commencing July 2024 to preserve liquidity.
• Debt Extension: On August 7, 2025 (subsequent to the period end), the company exercised an option to extend the mandatory redemption date of a significant preferred equity investment (LC2) by 12 months, increasing the preferred return rate from 15.5% to 18%.
• Unusual Items: Significant one-time costs included the loss on extinguishment of debt ($926,398) and a loss on the sale of a property ($44,782).

Investor Verification Checklist

• Liquidity Runway: Verify the sufficiency of the $356,130 cash balance against upcoming debt maturities and preferred equity redemption obligations.
• Nasdaq Status: Monitor the stock price to determine if a deficiency notice is issued regarding the $1.00 minimum bid price and the equity deficit.
• Debt Covenants: Confirm continued compliance with Debt Service Coverage Ratios (DSCR), particularly for the $21 million Modiv Portfolio loan and the $11.4 million Bayport loans.
• Preferred Equity Obligations: Review the terms of the LC2 preferred equity extension and the impact of the increased 18% return rate on future cash flows.
• Related Party Transactions: Scrutinize the terms of recent loans from related parties (Brown Family Enterprises, CEO David Sobelman) and the associated interest rates and collateral requirements.
