• Significant liquidity of $4.6 billion.
• Only 9% of our total debt matures through 2027.
• 12.0 years weighted-average remaining term of debt, longest among S&P 500 REITs.

If this were included in the leasing volume for 2Q25, the total leased RSF would have increased to 1.2 million RSF for 2Q25 from 769,815 RSF. Refer to "Subsequent events" in the Earnings Press Release for additional details.
• Rental rate increases on lease renewals and re-leasing of space of 5.5% and 6.1% (cash basis) for 2Q25 and 13.2% and 6.9% (cash basis) for 1H25.

Ongoing execution of Alexandria's 2025 capital recycling strategy

We expect to fund a significant portion of our capital requirements for the year ending December 31, 2025 through dispositions of non-core assets, land, partial interest sales, and sales to owner/users. We expect dispositions of land to represent 20%–30% of our total dispositions and sales of partial interests for 2025.

Alexandria's development and redevelopment pipeline delivered incremental annual net operating income of $15 million commencing during 2Q25, with an additional $139 million of incremental annual net operating income anticipated to deliver by 4Q26 primarily from projects 84% leased/negotiating

• During 2Q25, we placed into service development and redevelopment projects aggregating 217,774 RSF that are 90% occupied across three submarkets and delivered incremental annual net operating income of $15 million.
  • A significant 2Q25 delivery was 119,202 RSF at 10935, 10945, and 10955 Alexandria Way located in this asset at the One Alexandria Square Megacampus in our Torrey Pines submarket.
    • Improvements of 100 bps and 110 bps in initial stabilized yield and initial stabilized yield (cash basis), respectively, were primarily driven by leasing space at higher rental rates than previously underwritten and a $23 million reduction in total investment due to construction cost savings from overall project efficiencies.
• Annual net operating income (cash basis) from recently delivered projects is expected to increase by $57 million upon the burn-off of initial free rent, which has a weighted-average burn-off period of approximately three months.
• During 1Q25-4Q26, we expect to deliver annual net operating income representing nearly 9% of the total net operating income for 2024.

• Same property net operating income changes of (5.4)% and 2.0% (cash basis) for 2Q25 over 2Q24 and (4.3)% and 3.4% (cash basis) for 1H25 over 1H24, which include lease expirations that became vacant during 1Q25 aggregating 768,080 RSF across six properties and four submarkets with a weighted-average lease expiration date of January 21, 2025. Excluding the impact of these lease expirations, same property net operating income changes for 2Q25 would have been (2.1)% and 6.5% (cash basis).
