Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Revenue Growth: Total revenue increased 30.5% in Q2 2025 and 28.9% YTD 2025 compared to the prior year periods. This was driven by a 29.0% increase in income property revenue and a 109.3% increase in commercial loan interest income.
- Net Loss: The Company reported a net loss of $23.4 million in Q2 2025, a significant decline from the $1.2 million net income in Q2 2024. The primary driver was a $20.4 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the settlement of the 2025 Convertible Notes.

- Acquisitions: During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company acquired Ashley Park in Newnan, GA, for $79.5 million. No properties were disposed of in the current period, whereas the prior year included gains from property and subsurface interest sales.
- Investment Losses: Unrealized losses on the Company's investment in Alpine Income Property Trust, Inc. (PINE) contributed to the net loss, totaling $4.7 million in Q2 2025 due to a decline in PINE's stock price.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

Investor Verification Checklist
- Debt Extinguishment Impact: Verify the long-term impact of the $20.4 million loss on extinguishment of debt on future earnings and capital structure.
- PINE Investment Valuation: Monitor the fair value of the $34.8 million investment in PINE, which is subject to market volatility and unrealized gains/losses.
- Interest Rate Exposure: Review the effectiveness of interest rate swaps covering the Credit Facility and Term Loans, noting that $74.0 million of the Credit Facility remains variable.
- Capital Deployment: Track progress against the $100M-$200M investment guidance for 2025, specifically the deployment of capital into the newly acquired Ashley Park property.
- Dividend Coverage: Assess AFFO coverage of dividends, noting that AFFO attributable to common stockholders was $15.3 million in Q2 2025 against $12.0 million in common dividends paid.
