Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Acquisitions: The Company acquired three properties totaling $123.0 million in gross acquisition price during Q1 2026: Marketplace at Hudson Station (Phoenix, AZ), Nashville West (Nashville, TN), and an outparcel at The Centre on Hugh Howell (Atlanta, GA). No acquisitions were made in Q1 2025.
- Revenue Growth: Total income increased by $8.8 million (12.0%) year-over-year, driven primarily by $12.3 million in income from new acquisitions, partially offset by $6.1 million from disposed properties.
- Net Income Decline: GAAP Net Income decreased by $1.6 million (23.7%) to $5.2 million. This was primarily due to a $1.8 million increase in interest expense (driven by higher revolver utilization and assumed mortgages) and increased depreciation from new assets.
- Same Property Performance: Same Property NOI increased by 2.6% ($1.2 million), driven by fixed annual rent escalations and favorable lease spreads. Economic occupancy for Same Properties was 95.0%.
- Debt Expansion: Total debt increased by approximately $126 million, largely due to drawing $126 million on the Revolving Credit Facility to fund acquisitions.
Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items
- Subsequent Financing: On April 16, 2026, the Company entered into an agreement for a private placement of $250 million in senior notes (Series A, B, and C) with a weighted average fixed interest rate of 5.44% and a tenor of approximately 5.4 years. Issuance is expected on June 29, 2026.
- Capital Allocation: The Company declared distributions of $0.2500 per share for the quarter. No shares were issued under the At-The-Market (ATM) program, leaving $236.7 million available. No shares were repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program (SRP).
- Risk Factors: Management highlights risks related to tenant bankruptcy, shifts to e-commerce, rising interest rates, inflation, and the impact of global trade policies/tariffs on tenant operations.
- Interest Rate Hedging: As of March 31, 2026, $400 million of variable-rate term loans were swapped to fixed rates. The Company has $181 million of variable-rate debt on its revolving facility exposed to market rates.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Debt Maturity Wall: Verify the impact of the $181 million revolver maturity in January 2029 and the $150 million Series A Notes maturity in August 2029 against the new $250 million note issuance.
- Acquisition Integration: Monitor the occupancy and rent roll performance of the three Q1 2026 acquisitions (Phoenix, Nashville, Atlanta) to ensure they meet projected returns.
- Interest Rate Exposure: Assess the cost of capital given the new 5.44% weighted average rate on the subsequent $250 million issuance compared to existing debt.
- Same Property Trends: Track the 2.6% Same Property NOI growth to ensure it is sustainable amidst potential macroeconomic headwinds affecting retail tenants.
- Liquidity Position: Confirm the utilization of the $319 million available credit facility capacity following the recent acquisitions and upcoming note issuance.
