Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Revenue Growth: Total income increased $18.1 million (12.3%) for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the prior year. This was driven by $25.2 million in income from acquired properties, partially offset by $10.2 million from disposed properties.

- Same Property Performance: Same Property NOI increased 3.3% ($3.1 million) for the six-month period, driven by fixed annual rent escalations and favorable lease spreads.
- Debt Expansion: Total debt increased by approximately $269 million to $1.09 billion. This includes the issuance of $250 million in new senior notes in June 2026 and increased utilization of the revolving credit facility to fund acquisitions.
- Acquisitions: The company acquired six properties totaling 677,000 square feet for a gross price of $255.6 million during the first half of 2026.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
Management Commentary: Management continues to pursue a strategy of acquiring retail properties in Sun Belt markets with favorable demographics. The company emphasizes its portfolio of high-quality, grocery-anchored assets as a differentiator. Liquidity is considered sufficient to meet short- and long-term cash demands.
Capital Markets Activity:
- Issued $250 million in senior notes (Series A, B, and C) in June 2026 with maturities ranging from 2029 to 2033.
- Available liquidity under the $500 million Revolving Credit Facility was $425 million as of June 30, 2026.
- ATM Program: $236.7 million remains available for issuance; no shares issued in the first half of 2026.
Risks and Contingencies:
- Interest Rate Risk: The company has $75 million of variable-rate debt exposed to market fluctuations, though $400 million of term loans are swapped to fixed rates.
- Macroeconomic Factors: Risks include inflation, geopolitical tensions, trade policies, and shifts in consumer spending from brick-and-mortar to e-commerce.
- Tenant Concentration: No single tenant comprises 10% or more of lease income.
Subsequent Event: On July 1, 2026, the company acquired New Garden Crossing in Greensboro, NC, for $34.0 million using available liquidity.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Debt Maturity Profile: Verify the impact of the new $250 million senior notes issuance on future interest expense and leverage ratios.
- Acquisition Integration: Monitor the leasing velocity and rent growth of the six properties acquired in H1 2026 to ensure they meet projected returns.
- Same Property NOI Trends: Confirm the sustainability of the 3.3% Same Property NOI growth amidst potential tenant credit risks or vacancy fluctuations.
- Liquidity Position: Track the utilization of the Revolving Credit Facility, which increased from $55 million to $75 million drawn, and the reduction in cash balances from $294 million to $75 million.
- Dividend Coverage: Assess the ability to maintain the $0.25 per share quarterly distribution given the increased interest expense and lower GAAP net income.
