Financial Results

Net income for the third quarter of 2025 was $130.2 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, compared to $128.0 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2024. Key items affecting financial results for each period include:

• $28.2 million growth in consolidated revenues from rental properties, net, mainly due to $12.5 million in higher minimum rent and $8.0 million in increased other rental property income.
• $6.0 million higher equity in income of joint ventures, primarily due to the gain recognized on a change in control of Tanasbourne Village.
• $4.2 million improvement in general and administrative expenses.
  
  

This growth was partially offset by:

• $13.6 million of increased depreciation and amortization expense.
• $12.6 million change in the other (expense)/income, net, line item. This was primarily due to a $5.5 million mark-to-market change in derivatives as well as a reduction in interest income related to lower cash balances held by the company; and
• $8.0 million in increased interest expense.
  
  

FFO was $300.3 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $287.4 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2024. The company’s FFO benefited approximately $3.2 million from the accelerated amortization of two below market Rite Aid leases in the quarter. The company excludes from FFO all realized or unrealized derivative/marketable securities gains, losses and applicable taxes, as well as gains and losses from the sales of properties, depreciation and amortization related to real estate, profit participation from other investments, and other items considered incidental to the company’s business.

Operating Results

• Signed 427 leases totaling 2.3 million square feet during the third quarter, generating blended pro-rata cash rent spreads on comparable spaces of 11.1%, with new leases up 21.1% and renewals and options growing 8.2%. For the nine months ended, September 30, 2025, the company leased 9.4 million square feet, representing an 8.3% increase over the same period last year.
• Pro-rata leased occupancy increased to 95.7% with pro-rata anchor and small shop occupancy ending the quarter at 97.0% and 92.5%, respectively, each representing a 30-basis-point sequential increase.
• Generated 1.9% growth in Same Property Net Operating Income⁽¹⁾ (“NOI”) in the third quarter over the same period a year ago, primarily driven by a 2.1% increase in minimum rents. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Same Property NOI growth was 3.0%. Credit loss, as a percentage of total pro-rata rental revenue, was 75 basis points for the third quarter, and 73 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
• The spread between the company’s pro-rata leased rate versus economic occupancy level was 360 basis points, a 50 basis-point sequential increase, equating to $71 million in future ABR from leases that have been signed and have not yet commenced.
  
  

Development and Redevelopment Activity

• Activated The Chester, a 214-unit multi-family project at Westlake Shopping Center in Daly City, California with a gross cost of $153 million with Kimco having a 75% ownership interest. The project is expected to be completed in 2028.
• Obtained 760 additional multi-family entitlements at Pike Center during the quarter, bringing the company’s total number of entitled multi-family units to 13,539 at the end of September.
• As of September 30, 2025, the company’s pipeline of active and near-term development and redevelopment projects, including active mixed-use projects, was over $600 million, reflecting a sequential increase of approximately $250 million from the second quarter.
