Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Revenue Growth: Total income increased by $6.97 million (10.4%) year-over-year, driven primarily by $6.3 million in income from acquired properties and improved occupancy/rent rates on same properties.
- Profitability: Net income more than doubled to $6.79 million from $2.90 million, aided by a $1.31 million decrease in net interest expense following the extinguishment of a $72.5 million mortgage in late 2024.
- Same Property Performance: Same Property NOI increased 6.1% to $47.3 million, attributed to higher occupancy, increased Annualized Base Rent per square foot (ABR PSF), and favorable lease spreads.
- Portfolio Expansion: The portfolio grew from 63 to 68 properties. No acquisitions occurred in Q1 2025, but two acquisitions were completed in April 2025 (subsequent events).

Investor Verification Checklist

- Acquisition Integration: Monitor the performance and occupancy of the two properties acquired in April 2025 (Plaza Escondida and Carmel Village).
- Interest Rate Exposure: Confirm the status of interest rate swaps covering the $400 million term loan to ensure fixed-rate protection remains effective.
- Same Property Trends: Track the sustainability of the 6.1% Same Property NOI growth and the 95.4% economic occupancy rate in the context of broader retail trends.
- Capital Allocation: Review future capital expenditure plans, particularly regarding development and redevelopment costs which totaled $2.0 million in Q1 2025.
