Gladstone Commercial Corporation

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Gladstone Commercial Corporation is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that was incorporated under the General Corporation Law of the State of Maryland on February 14, 2003. We focus on acquiring, owning and managing primarily office and industrial properties. Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, our business is managed by Gladstone Management Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Adviser”), and administrative services are provided by Gladstone Administration, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Administrator”), each pursuant to a contractual arrangement with us. Our Adviser and Administrator collectively employ all of our personnel and pay their salaries, benefits, and other general expenses directly. Gladstone Commercial Corporation conducts substantially all of its operations through a subsidiary, Gladstone Commercial Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”).

All references herein to “we,” “our,” “us” and the “Company” mean Gladstone Commercial Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, except where it is made clear that the term means only Gladstone Commercial Corporation.

Interim Financial Information

Our interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. The year-end balance sheet data presented herein was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals, necessary for the fair statement of financial statements for the interim period, have been included. The interim financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 15, 2022. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the impact of extraordinary events such as the ongoing coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make judgments that are subjective in nature to make certain estimates and assumptions. Application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment regarding the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties, and as a result, actual results could materially differ from these estimates. A summary of all of our significant accounting policies is provided in Note 1, “Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies,” to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

2. Related-Party Transactions

Gladstone Management and Gladstone Administration

We are externally managed pursuant to contractual arrangements with our Adviser and our Administrator, which collectively employ all of our personnel and pay their salaries, benefits, and other general expenses directly. Both our Adviser and Administrator are affiliates of ours, as their parent company is owned and controlled by Mr. David Gladstone, our chairman and chief executive officer. Two of our executive officers, Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Terry Lee Brubaker (our vice chairman and chief operating officer) serve as directors and executive officers of our Adviser and our Administrator. Our current sole president, Mr. Arthur “Buzz” Cooper (as Mr. Bob Cutlip, our previous other co-president with Mr. Cooper, retired on June 30, 2022) is also executive vice president of commercial and industrial real estate of our Adviser. Mr. Michael LiCalsi, our general counsel and secretary, also serves as our Administrator’s president, general counsel and secretary, as well as executive vice president of administration of our Adviser. We have entered into an advisory agreement with our Adviser, as amended from time to time (the “Advisory Agreement”), and an administration agreement with our Administrator (the “Administration Agreement”). The services and fees under the Advisory Agreement and Administration Agreement are described below. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $3.6 million and $3.4 million, respectively, were collectively due to our Adviser and Administrator. Our entrance into the Advisory Agreement and each amendment thereto has been approved unanimously by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors reviews and considers renewing the agreements with our Adviser and Administrator each July. During their July 2022 meeting, our Board of Directors reviewed and renewed each of the Advisory Agreement and Administration Agreement for an additional year, through August 31, 2023.

Base Management Fee

On July 14, 2020, we amended and restated the Advisory Agreement by entering into the Sixth Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement between us and the Adviser (the “Sixth Amended Advisory Agreement”), which replaced the previous calculation of the base management fee with a calculation based on Gross Tangible Real Estate. The revised base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears and calculated at an annual rate of 0.425% (0.10625% per quarter) of the prior calendar quarter’s “Gross Tangible Real Estate,” defined in the Sixth Amended Advisory Agreement as the current gross value of our property portfolio (meaning the aggregate of each property’s original acquisition price plus the cost of any subsequent capital improvements thereon). The calculation of the other fees in the Advisory Agreement remains unchanged.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a base management fee of $1.6 million and $3.1 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded a base management fee of $1.5 million and $2.9 million, respectively.

Incentive Fee

Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the calculation of the incentive fee rewards the Adviser in circumstances where our quarterly Core FFO (defined at the end of this paragraph), before giving effect to any incentive fee, or pre-incentive fee Core FFO, exceeds 2.0% quarterly, or 8.0% annualized, of adjusted total stockholders’ equity (after giving effect to the base management fee but before giving effect to the incentive fee). We refer to this as the hurdle rate. The Adviser will receive 15.0% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee Core FFO that exceeds the hurdle rate. However, in no event shall the incentive fee for a particular quarter exceed by 15.0% (the cap) the average quarterly incentive fee paid by us for the previous four quarters (excluding quarters for which no incentive fee was paid). Core FFO (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) is GAAP net income (loss) available to common stockholders, excluding the incentive fee, depreciation and amortization, any realized and unrealized gains, losses or other non-cash items recorded in net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period, and one-time events pursuant to changes in GAAP. The Incentive Fee is used by the Adviser primarily for performance-based compensation related to certain of its employees.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded an incentive fee of $1.3 million and $2.7 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded an incentive fee of $1.0 million and $2.3 million, respectively, partially offset by credits related to non-contractual, unconditional, and irrevocable waivers issued by the Advisor of $0.02 million and $0.02 million, respectively. The Adviser did not waive any portion of the incentive fee for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Capital Gain Fee

Table of Contents

gain fee, we will calculate aggregate realized capital gains and aggregate realized capital losses for the applicable time period. For this purpose, aggregate realized capital gains and losses, if any, equals the realized gain or loss calculated by the difference between the sales price of the property, less any costs to sell the property and the current gross value of the property (equal to the property’s original acquisition price plus any subsequent non-reimbursed capital improvements) of the disposed property. At the end of the fiscal year, if this number is positive, then the capital gain fee payable for such time period shall equal 15.0% of such amount. No capital gain fee was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021.

Termination Fee

The Advisory Agreement includes a termination fee clause whereby, in the event of our termination of the agreement without cause (with 120 days’ prior written notice and the vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors), a termination fee would be payable to the Adviser equal to two times the sum of the average annual base management fee and incentive fee earned by the Adviser during the 24-month period prior to such termination. A termination fee is also payable if the Adviser terminates the Advisory Agreement after we have defaulted and applicable cure periods have expired. The Advisory Agreement may also be terminated for cause by us (with 30 days’ prior written notice and the vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors), with no termination fee payable. Cause is defined in the agreement to include if the Adviser breaches any material provisions thereof, the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Adviser, dissolution of the Adviser and fraud or misappropriation of funds.

Administration Agreement

Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, we pay separately for our allocable portion of the Administrator’s overhead expenses in performing its obligations to us including, but not limited to, rent and our allocable portion of the salaries and benefits expenses of our Administrator’s employees, including, but not limited to, our chief financial officer, treasurer, chief compliance officer, general counsel and secretary (who also serves as our Administrator’s president, general counsel and secretary), and their respective staffs. Our allocable portion of the Administrator’s expenses are generally derived by multiplying our Administrator’s total expenses by the approximate percentage of time the Administrator’s employees perform services for us in relation to their time spent performing services for all companies serviced by our Administrator under contractual agreements. We believe that the methodology of allocating the Administrator’s total expenses by approximate percentage of time services were performed among all companies serviced by our Administrator more closely approximates fees paid to actual services performed. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded an administration fee of $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded an administration fee of $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

Gladstone Securities

Gladstone Securities, LLC (“Gladstone Securities”), is a privately held broker dealer registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and insured by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Gladstone Securities is an affiliate of ours, as its parent company is owned and controlled by David Gladstone, our chairman and chief executive officer. Mr. Gladstone also serves on the board of managers of Gladstone Securities.

Mortgage Financing Arrangement Agreement

We entered into an agreement with Gladstone Securities, effective June 18, 2013, for it to act as our non-exclusive agent to assist us with arranging mortgage financing for properties we own. In connection with this engagement, Gladstone Securities will, from time to time, continue to solicit the interest of various commercial real estate lenders or recommend to us third party lenders offering credit products or packages that are responsive to our needs. We pay Gladstone Securities a financing fee in connection with the services it provides to us for securing mortgage financing on any of our properties. The amount of these financing fees, which are payable upon closing of the financing, are based on a percentage of the amount of the mortgage, generally ranging from 0.15% to a maximum of 1.00% of the mortgage obtained. The amount of the financing fees may be reduced or eliminated, as determined by us and Gladstone Securities, after taking into consideration various factors, including, but not limited to, the involvement of any third-party brokers and market conditions. We paid financing fees to Gladstone Securities of $0.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, which are included in mortgage notes payable, net, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, or 0.35% of the mortgage principal secured. We paid financing fees to Gladstone Securities of $14,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2021, which are included in mortgage notes payable, net, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, or 0.25% of the mortgage principal secured. Our Board of Directors renewed the agreement for an additional year, through August 31, 2023, at its July 2022 meeting.

Dealer Manager Agreement

On February 20, 2020 we entered into a dealer manager agreement (the “Dealer Manager Agreement”), whereby Gladstone Securities will act as the exclusive dealer manager in connection with our offering (the “Offering”) of up to (i) 20,000,000 shares of 6.00% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series F Preferred Stock”), on a “reasonable best efforts” basis (the “Primary Offering”), and (ii) 6,000,000 shares of Series F Preferred Stock pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”) to those holders of the Series F Preferred Stock who participate in such DRIP. The Series F Preferred Stock is registered with the SEC pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-236143), as the same may be amended and/or supplemented (the “Registration Statement”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will be offered and sold pursuant to a prospectus supplement, dated February 20, 2020, and a base prospectus dated February 11, 2020 relating to the Registration Statement (the “Prospectus”).

Under the Dealer Manager Agreement, Gladstone Securities, as dealer manager, will provide certain sales, promotional and marketing services to us in connection with the Offering, and we will pay Gladstone Securities (i) selling commissions of 6.0% of the gross proceeds from sales of Series F Preferred Stock in the Primary Offering (the “Selling Commissions”), and (ii) a dealer manager fee of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from sales of Series F Preferred Stock in the Primary Offering (the “Dealer Manager Fee”). No Selling Commissions or Dealer Manager Fee shall be paid with respect to shares sold pursuant to the DRIP. Gladstone Securities may, in its sole discretion, re-allow a portion of the Dealer Manager Fee to participating broker-dealers in support of the Offering. We paid fees of $0.1 million and $0.3 million to Gladstone Securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, in connection with the Offering.

3. Loss Per Share of Common Stock

The following tables set forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The operating partnership units in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) held by holders who do not control the Operating Partnership (“Non-controlling OP Unitholders”) (which may be redeemed for shares of common stock) have been excluded from the diluted loss per share calculations, as there would be no effect on the amounts since the Non-controlling OP Unitholders’ share of loss would also be added back to net loss. Net loss figures are presented net of such non-controlling interests in the loss per share calculation.

We computed basic loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods. Diluted loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 reflects additional shares of common stock related to our convertible senior common stock (the “Senior Common Stock”), if the effect of conversion would be dilutive, that would have been outstanding if such dilutive potential shares of common stock had been issued, as well as an adjustment to net loss attributable to common stockholders as applicable to common stockholders that would result from their assumed issuance (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts).

(1)The weighted average number of OP Units held by Non-controlling OP Unitholders was 256,994 and 256,994 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and 256,994 and 377,975 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

(2)We excluded convertible shares of Senior Common Stock of 363,246 and 558,038 from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, because they were anti-dilutive.

5. Real Estate Dispositions, Held for Sale and Impairment Charges

Real Estate Dispositions

We did not sell any properties during the six months ended June 30, 2022. We expect to continue to execute our capital recycling plan and sell non-core properties as reasonable disposition opportunities become available, and use the sales proceeds to acquire properties in our target, secondary growth markets, or pay down outstanding debt. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we sold two non-core properties, located in Rancho Cordova, California and Champaign, Illinois.

Real Estate Held for Sale

At June 30, 2022, we had three properties classified as held for sale, located in Parsippany, New Jersey, Jupiter, Florida, and Columbus, Ohio. We consider these assets to be non-core to our long term strategy. At December 31, 2021, we did not have any properties classified as held for sale.

The table below summarizes the components of the assets and liabilities held for sale at June 30, 2022 reflected on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (dollars in thousands):

Total Liabilities Held for Sale	$	232

Impairment Charges

We evaluated our portfolio for triggering events to determine if any of our held and used assets were impaired during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and did not identify any impaired assets. We evaluated our held for sale assets to determine if any of these assets were impaired during the six months ended June 30, 2022, and identified one held for sale asset, located in Parsippany, New Jersey, which was impaired by $1.4 million. In performing our held for sale assessment, the carrying value of this asset was above the fair value, less costs of sale. As a result, we impaired this property to equal the fair market value less costs of sale. We did not recognize an impairment charge during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Fair market value for this asset was calculated using Level 3 inputs (defined in Note 6 “Mortgage Notes Payable and Credit Facility”), which were determined using a negotiated sales price from an executed purchase and sale agreement with a third party. We continue to evaluate our properties on a quarterly basis for changes that could create the need to record impairment. Future impairment losses may result, and could be significant, should market conditions deteriorate in the markets in which we hold our assets or should we be unable to secure leases at terms that are favorable to us, which could impact the estimated cash flow of our properties over the period in which we plan to hold our properties. Additionally, changes in management’s decisions to either own and lease long-term or sell a particular asset will have an impact on this analysis.

N/A - Not Applicable

Mortgage Notes Payable

As of June 30, 2022, we had 54 mortgage notes payable, collateralized by a total of 70 properties with a net book value of $683.5 million. We have limited recourse liabilities that could result from any one or more of the following circumstances: a borrower voluntarily filing for bankruptcy, improper conveyance of a property, fraud or material misrepresentation, misapplication or misappropriation of rents, security deposits, insurance proceeds or condemnation proceeds, or physical waste or damage to the property resulting from a borrower’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. As of June 30, 2022, we did not have any mortgages subject to recourse. We will also indemnify lenders against claims resulting from the presence of hazardous substances or activity involving hazardous substances in violation of environmental laws on a property.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we repaid one mortgage, collateralized by four properties, which is summarized in the table below (dollars in thousands):

Interest Rate Cap and Interest Rate Swap Agreements

We have entered into interest rate cap agreements that cap the interest rate on certain of our variable-rate debt and we have assumed or entered into interest rate swap agreements in which we hedged our exposure to variable interest rates by agreeing to pay fixed interest rates to our respective counterparty. We have adopted the fair value measurement provisions for our financial instruments recorded at fair value. The fair value guidance establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. Generally, we will estimate the fair value of our interest rate caps and interest rate swaps, in the absence of observable market data, using estimates of value including estimated remaining life, counterparty credit risk, current market yield and interest rate spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our interest rate cap agreements and interest rate swaps were valued using Level 2 inputs.

The fair value of the interest rate cap agreements is recorded in other assets on our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. We record changes in the fair value of the interest rate cap agreements quarterly based on the current market valuations at quarter end. If the interest rate cap qualifies for hedge accounting, the change in the estimated fair value is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income to the extent that it is effective, with any ineffective portion recorded to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. If the interest rate cap does not qualify for hedge accounting, or if it is determined the hedge is ineffective, any change in the fair value is recognized in interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The following table summarizes the interest rate caps at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (dollars in thousands):


			June 30, 2022				December 31, 2021
Aggregate Cost			Aggregate Notional Amount		Aggregate Fair Value		Aggregate Notional Amount		Aggregate Fair Value
$	1,228	(1)	$	233,481	$	3,089	$	233,632	$	324

(1)We have entered into various interest rate cap agreements on variable rate debt with LIBOR caps ranging from 1.50% to 2.75%.

We have assumed or entered into interest rate swap agreements in connection with certain of our mortgage financings, whereby we will pay our counterparty a fixed rate interest rate on a monthly basis and receive payments from our counterparty equivalent to the stipulated floating rate. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements is recorded in other assets or other liabilities on our accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. We have designated our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges, and we record changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreement to accumulated other comprehensive income on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. We record changes in fair value on a quarterly basis, using current market valuations at quarter end. The following table summarizes our interest rate swaps at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (dollars in thousands):

The fair value of all mortgage notes payable outstanding as of June 30, 2022 was $441.5 million, as compared to the carrying value stated above of $462.8 million. The fair value is calculated based on a discounted cash flow analysis, using management’s estimate of market interest rates on long-term debt with comparable terms and loan to value ratios. The fair value was calculated using Level 3 inputs of the hierarchy established by ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.”

Credit Facility

On July 2, 2019, we amended, extended and upsized our Credit Facility, expanding Term Loan A from $75.0 million to $160.0 million, and increased our Revolver from $85.0 million to $100.0 million. Term Loan A has a maturity date of July 2, 2024, and the Revolver has a maturity date of July 2, 2023. The interest rate for the Credit Facility is equal to LIBOR plus a spread ranging from 125 to 215 basis points, depending on our leverage. We entered into multiple interest rate cap agreements on Term Loan A, which cap LIBOR ranging from 2.50% to 2.75%, to hedge our exposure to variable interest rates. The Credit Facility’s bank syndicate is comprised of KeyBank, Fifth Third Bank, U.S. Bank National Association, The Huntington National Bank, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association.

On February 11, 2021, we added a new $65.0 million Term Loan B, inclusive of a $15.0 million delayed funding component. Term Loan B has a maturity date of February 11, 2026 and a LIBOR floor of 25 basis points, plus a spread ranging from 140 to 225 basis points, depending on our leverage. We entered into multiple interest rate cap agreements on Term Loan B, which cap LIBOR from 1.50% to 1.75%. We incurred fees of approximately $0.5 million in connection with issuing Term Loan B. As of June 30, 2022, there was $65.0 million outstanding under Term Loan B, and we used all net proceeds to repay all outstanding borrowings on the Revolver and fund acquisitions.

As of June 30, 2022, there was $272.0 million outstanding under our Credit Facility, at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.68%, and $19.5 million outstanding under letters of credit, at a weighted average interest rate of 1.90%. As of June 30, 2022, the maximum additional amount we could draw under the Credit Facility was $18.4 million. We were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2022.

The amount outstanding under the Credit Facility approximates fair value as of June 30, 2022.

Recent Activity

Common Stock ATM Program

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold 1.5 million shares of common stock, raising $31.7 million in net proceeds under our At-the-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreements with sales agents Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, BTIG, LLC, and Fifth Third Securities, Inc. On February 22, 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to our existing At-the-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreement (the “Common Stock Sales Agreement”), dated December 3, 2019. The amendment permits shares of common stock to be issued pursuant to the Common Stock Sales Agreement under the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-236143) and future registration statements on Form S-3 (the “Common Stock ATM Program”). As of June 30, 2022, we had remaining capacity to sell up to $35.5 million of common stock pursuant to the Common Stock ATM Program under the 2020 Universal Shelf (as defined below).

Mezzanine Equity

Our 6.625% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series E Preferred Stock”), and our 6.00% Series G Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series G Preferred Stock”) are classified as mezzanine equity in our condensed consolidated balance sheets because both are redeemable at the option of the shareholder upon a change of control of greater than 50%. A change in control of our company, outside of our control, is only possible if a tender offer is accepted by over 90% of our shareholders. All other change in control situations would require input from our Board of Directors. In addition, our Series E Preferred Stock and Series G Preferred Stock are redeemable at the option of the applicable shareholder in the event a delisting event occurs. We will periodically evaluate the likelihood that a delisting event or change of control of greater than 50% will take place, and if we deem this probable, we would adjust the Series E Preferred Stock, and Series G Preferred Stock presented in mezzanine equity to their redemption value, with the offset to gain (loss) on extinguishment. We currently believe the likelihood of a change of control of greater than 50%, or a delisting event, is remote.

Universal Shelf Registration Statements

On January 29, 2020, we filed a universal registration statement on Form S-3, File No. 333-236143 (the “2020 Universal Shelf”). The 2020 Universal Shelf was declared effective on February 11, 2020. The 2020 Universal Shelf allows us to issue up to $800.0 million of securities. Of the $800.0 million of available capacity under our 2020 Universal Shelf, approximately $636.5 million is reserved for the sale of our Series F Preferred Stock, and $63.0 million is reserved for our Common Stock ATM Program. As of June 30, 2022, we had the ability to issue up to $658.7 million of securities under the 2020 Universal Shelf.

Series F Preferred Stock

On February 20, 2020, we filed with the Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation Articles Supplementary (i) setting forth the rights, preferences and terms of the Series F Preferred Stock and (ii) reclassifying and designating 26,000,000 shares of our authorized and unissued shares of common stock as shares of Series F Preferred Stock. The reclassification decreased the number of shares classified as common stock from 86,290,000 shares immediately prior to the reclassification to 60,290,000 shares immediately after the reclassification. We sold 126,028 shares of our Series F Preferred Stock, raising $2.9 million in net proceeds during the six months ended June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, we had remaining capacity to sell up to $622.6 million of Series F Preferred Stock.

Non-controlling Interest in Operating Partnership

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we owned approximately 99.3% and 99.3%, respectively, of the outstanding OP Units. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we redeemed 246,039 OP Units for an equivalent amount of common stock.

The Operating Partnership is required to make distributions on each OP Unit in the same amount as those paid on each share of our common stock, with the distributions on the OP Units held by us being utilized to make distributions to our common stockholders.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 256,994 and 256,994 outstanding OP Units held by Non-controlling OP Unitholders, respectively.

General

We are an externally-advised real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that was incorporated under the General Corporation Law of the State of Maryland on February 14, 2003. We focus on acquiring, owning, and managing primarily office and industrial properties. Our properties are geographically diversified and our tenants cover a broad cross section of business sectors and range in size from small to very large private and public companies, many of which are corporations that do not have publicly-rated debt. We have historically entered into, and intend in the future to enter into, purchase agreements primarily for real estate having net leases with remaining terms of approximately seven to 15 years and contractual rental rate increases. Under a net lease, the tenant is required to pay most or all operating, maintenance, repair and insurance costs and real estate taxes with respect to the leased property.

We actively communicate with buyout funds, real estate brokers and other third parties to locate properties for potential acquisition or to provide mortgage financing in an effort to build our portfolio. We target secondary growth markets that possess favorable economic growth trends, diversified industries, and growing population and employment.

All references to annualized generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) rent are rents that each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of its respective lease reported evenly over the non-cancelable term of the lease.

As of August 1, 2022:

•we owned 135 properties totaling 16.9 million square feet of rentable space, located in 27 states;

•our occupancy rate was 97.5%;

•the weighted average remaining term of our mortgage debt was 3.7 years and the weighted average interest rate was 4.24%; and

•the average remaining lease term of the portfolio was 7.0 years.

Business Environment

Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, authorities throughout the United States and the world have implemented widespread measures attempting to contain its spread and impact, such as travel restrictions, quarantines, the promotion of social distancing and limitations on business activity. Generally, year to date 2022 has seen the lifting of certain restrictive measures that were implemented during 2020 and 2021. These measures, and the pandemic generally, have caused significant national and global economic disruption, including disrupted business operations, including those of some of our tenants, and continue to have an adverse effect on demand for office space in the short term, including office utilization rates. Economic recovery in the United States and various other regions of the world has continued, but may be threatened by the continued adverse effects of COVID-19 and more significantly by continuing inflationary conditions, rising interest rates and the impact of ongoing or escalated geopolitical tensions and conflict.

The demand for industrial space has remained strong due to the continuing growth of e-commerce and reshoring of manufacturing operations, but appears to be only partially counterbalancing the adverse effects of COVID-19 on the commercial real estate industry. However, product delivery delays caused by supply chain disruption, and the apparent national labor shortage, have resulted in inflation and higher costs for both industrial and office construction projects. Industrial absorption increased on a nominal basis in 2021, compared to 2020, according to research reports, and continues to be strong through the first quarter of 2022, averaging approximately 130 million square feet of absorption each quarter. Construction activity for the industrial sector remains strong, as year-end 2021 estimates have approximately 500 million square feet of properties under construction with over 30% of that space pre-leased. Research reports also reflect that the office sector experienced negative absorption for each of the previous four quarters. Office space available for sublease has increased and is placing downward pressure on office rental rates.

Interest rates remain volatile in response to competing concerns about inflationary pressures and the spread and effect of COVID-19 variants, coupled with the threat of a near-term recession. The yield on the 10-year US Treasury Note has increased significantly during the first half of 2022 to approximately 3%, which adversely affects interest rates on long-term financing. After completing the 12th year of the current cycle, some national research firms are estimating that both pricing and investment sales volume would be peaking and the national economy would be slowing in the near term. Global recessionary conditions may occur over the next 24 months caused in part by inflation, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and geopolitical conditions, although the actual timeline, impact and duration are unknown. See “Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business,” below.

From a more macro-economic perspective, there continue to be significant uncertainties associated with the current economic environment and increasing probability of near-term recession.

Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent inflationary pressures and supply chain disruption may impact our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, funds from operations or prospects will depend on numerous evolving factors that we are not able to predict at this time, including the impact on economic activity from the pandemic (such as the effect on market rental rates and commercial real estate values) and actions taken in response; the effect on our tenants and their businesses; the ability of our tenants to make their rental payments; any closures of our tenants’ properties; and our ability to secure debt financing, service future debt obligations or pay distributions to our stockholders. Any of these events could materially adversely impact our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, funds from operations or prospects.

As of August 1, 2022, we have collected 100% of all outstanding rent collections for calendar year 2021 and the first half of 2022. In the past, we have received rent modification requests from our tenants, and we may receive additional requests in the future. There are no outstanding COVID-19 related rent modifications in place.

We believe we currently have adequate liquidity in the near term, and we believe the availability on our Credit Facility (defined in “Other Business Environment Considerations” below) is sufficient to cover all near-term debt obligations and operating expenses and to continue our industrial growth strategy. We are in compliance with all of our debt covenants. We amended our Credit Facility in 2019 to increase our borrowing capacity and extend its maturity date. In addition, on February 11, 2021, we added a new $65.0 million term loan component. We have had numerous conversations with lenders, and credit continues to be available for well capitalized borrowers. We continue to monitor our portfolio and intend to maintain a reasonably conservative liquidity position for the foreseeable future.

We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our personnel, tenants and stockholders. While we are unable to determine or predict the nature, duration or scope of the overall impact the COVID-19 pandemic, will have on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, funds from operations or prospects, we

Table of Contents

believe that it is important to share where we stand today, how our response to COVID-19 is progressing and how our operations and financial condition may change as the fight against COVID-19 continues.

Other Business Environment Considerations

The short-term and long-term economic implications are unknown, in relation to recent world events, including inflation, supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, rapidly rising interest rates, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and associated government response in addition to any subsequent shift in policy, geopolitical conditions, new regulations or the long-term impact of social and infrastructure spending and tax reform in the U.S. Finally, the continuing uncertainty surrounding the ability of the federal government to address its fiscal condition in both the near and long term, as well as other geopolitical issues relating to the global economic slowdown has increased domestic and global instability. These developments could cause interest rates and borrowing costs to be volatile, which may adversely affect our ability to access both the equity and debt markets and could have an adverse impact on our tenants as well.

All of our variable rate debt is based upon one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), although LIBOR is currently anticipated to be phased out by June 2023. LIBOR is expected to transition to a new standard rate, Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), which will incorporate repo data collected from multiple data sets. The intent is to adjust the SOFR to minimize differences between the interest that a borrower would be paying using LIBOR versus what it will be paying using SOFR. We are currently monitoring the transition as SOFR becomes the standard benchmark for variable rate debt. During the transition further changes or reforms to the determination of supervision of LIBOR may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported LIBOR, which could have an adverse impact on the market for LIBOR-based debt, or the value of our portfolio of LIBOR-indexed, floating-rate debt.

We continue to focus on re-leasing vacant space, renewing upcoming lease expirations, re-financing upcoming loan maturities, and acquiring additional properties with associated long-term leases. Currently, we have seven partially vacant buildings and two fully vacant buildings.

Our available vacant space at June 30, 2022 represents 2.7% of our total square footage and the annual carrying costs on the vacant space, including real estate taxes and property operating expenses, are approximately $4.2 million. We continue to actively seek new tenants for these properties.

We believe our lease expiration schedule for the remainder of 2022 is quite manageable, as it equates to only 4.3% of our lease revenue at June 30, 2022. Property acquisitions since the beginning of 2019 have totaled nearly $410.0 million and all transactions were industrial in nature, with a weighted average lease term of 12.6 years and a current weighted average lease term today of 10.5 years.

Our ability to make new investments is highly dependent upon our ability to procure financing. Our principal sources of financing generally include the issuance of equity securities, long-term mortgage loans secured by properties, borrowings under our $100.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (“Revolver”), with KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”), which matures in July 2023, our $160.0 million term loan facility (“Term Loan A”), which matures in July 2024 and our $65.0 million term loan facility (“Term Loan B”), which matures in February 2026. We refer to the Revolver, Term Loan A and Term Loan B collectively herein as the Credit Facility. While lenders’ credit standards have tightened, we continue to look to national and regional banks, insurance companies and non-bank lenders, in addition to the collateralized mortgage backed securities market (“CMBS”), to issue mortgages to finance our real estate activities.

Equity Activities

Common Stock ATM Program

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold 1.5 million shares of common stock, raising $31.7 million in net proceeds under our At-the-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreements (the “Common Stock Sales Agreement”) with sales agents Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, BTIG, LLC, and Fifth Third Securities, Inc. On February 22, 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to our existing At-the-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreement (the “Common Stock Sales Agreement”), dated December 3, 2019. The amendment permits shares of common stock to be issued pursuant to the Common Stock Sales Agreement under the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-236143) and future registration statements on Form S-3 (the “Common Stock ATM Program”). As of June 30, 2022, we had remaining capacity to sell up to $35.5 million of common stock pursuant to the Common Stock ATM Program under the 2020 Universal Shelf (as defined below).

Universal Shelf Registration Statements

On January 29, 2020, we filed a universal registration statement on Form S-3, File No. 333-236143 (the “2020 Universal Shelf”). The 2020 Universal Shelf was declared effective on February 11, 2020. The 2020 Universal Shelf allows us to issue up to $800.0 million of securities. Of the $800.0 million of available capacity under our 2020 Universal Shelf, approximately $636.5 million is reserved for the sale of our 6.00% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series F Preferred Stock”) and $63.0 million is reserved for our Common Stock ATM Program. As of June 30, 2022, we had the ability to issue up to $658.7 million of securities under the 2020 Universal Shelf.

The reclassification decreased the number of shares classified as common stock from 86,290,000 shares immediately prior to the reclassification to 60,290,000 shares immediately after the reclassification. We sold 126,028 shares of our Series F Preferred Stock, raising $2.9 million in net proceeds during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Diversity of Our Portfolio

Gladstone Management Corporation, a Delaware corporation (our “Adviser”), seeks to diversify our portfolio to avoid dependence on any one particular tenant, industry or geographic market. By diversifying our portfolio, our Adviser intends to reduce the adverse effect on our portfolio of a single under-performing investment or a downturn in any particular industry or geographic market. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, our largest tenant comprised only 4.3% of total lease revenue. The table below reflects the breakdown of our total lease revenue by tenant industry classification for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in thousands):

Our Adviser and Administrator

Our Adviser is led by a management team with extensive experience purchasing real estate and originating mortgage loans. Our Adviser and Gladstone Administration, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (our “Administrator”) are controlled by Mr. David Gladstone, who is also our chairman and chief executive officer. Mr. Gladstone also serves as the chairman and chief executive officer of both our Adviser and Administrator, as well as president and chief investment officer of our Adviser. Mr. Terry Lee Brubaker, our vice chairman and chief operating officer, is also the vice chairman and chief operating officer of our Adviser and Administrator and assistant secretary of our Adviser. Mr. Arthur “Buzz” Cooper, our current sole president (as Mr. Bob Cutlip, our previous other co-president with Mr. Cooper, retired on June 30, 2022), also serves as executive vice president of commercial and industrial real estate of our Adviser. Our Administrator employs our chief financial officer, treasurer, chief compliance officer, general counsel and secretary, Michael LiCalsi (who also serves as our Administrator’s president, general counsel, and secretary, as well as executive vice president of administration of our Adviser) and their respective staffs.

Our Adviser and Administrator also provide investment advisory and administrative services, respectively, to certain of our affiliates, including, but not limited to, Gladstone Capital Corporation and Gladstone Investment Corporation, both publicly-traded business development companies, as well as Gladstone Land Corporation, a publicly-traded REIT that primarily invests in farmland. With the exception of Mr. Gary Gerson, our chief financial officer, Mr. Jay Beckhorn, our treasurer, and Mr. Cooper, all of our executive officers and all of our directors serve as either directors or executive officers, or both, of Gladstone Capital Corporation and Gladstone Investment Corporation. In addition, with the exception of Mr. Cooper and Mr. Gerson, all of our executive officers and all of our directors, serve as either directors or executive officers, or both, of Gladstone

Table of Contents

Land Corporation. Mr. Cooper and Mr. Gerson do not put forth any material efforts in assisting affiliated companies. In the future, our Adviser may provide investment advisory services to other companies, both public and private.

Advisory and Administration Agreements

Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, we are responsible for all expenses incurred for our direct benefit. Examples of these expenses include legal, accounting, interest, directors’ and officers’ insurance, stock transfer services, stockholder-related fees, consulting and related fees. In addition, we are also responsible for all fees charged by third parties that are directly related to our business, which include real estate brokerage fees, mortgage placement fees, lease-up fees and transaction structuring fees (although we may be able to pass all or some of such fees on to our tenants and borrowers). Our entrance into the Advisory Agreement and each amendment thereto has been approved unanimously by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors reviews and considers renewing the agreement with our Adviser each July. During its July 2022 meeting, our Board of Directors reviewed and renewed the Advisory Agreement and Administration Agreement for an additional year, through August 31, 2023.

Base Management Fee

On July 14, 2020, we amended and restated the previous Advisory Agreement by entering into the Sixth Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement between us and the Adviser (the “Sixth Amended Advisory Agreement”). The Sixth Amended Advisory Agreement replaced the previous calculation of the base management fee with a calculation based on Gross Tangible Real Estate. The revised base management fee will be payable quarterly in arrears and calculated at an annual rate of 0.425% (0.10625% per quarter) of the prior calendar quarter’s “Gross Tangible Real Estate,” defined in the Sixth Amended Advisory Agreement as the current gross value of our property portfolio (meaning the aggregate of each property’s original acquisition price plus the cost of any subsequent capital improvements thereon). The calculation of the other fees in the Amended Agreement remain unchanged.

Our Adviser does not charge acquisition or disposition fees when we acquire or dispose of properties as is common in other externally managed REITs; however, our Adviser may earn fee income from our borrowers, tenants or other sources.

Incentive Fee

Table of Contents

Capital Gain Fee

Under the Advisory Agreement, we will pay to the Adviser a capital gain-based incentive fee that will be calculated and payable in arrears as of the end of each fiscal year (or upon termination of the Advisory Agreement). In determining the capital gain fee, we will calculate aggregate realized capital gains and aggregate realized capital losses for the applicable time period. For this purpose, aggregate realized capital gains and losses, if any, equals the realized gain or loss calculated by the difference between the sales price of the property, less any costs to sell the property and the current gross value of the property (equal to the property’s original acquisition price plus any subsequent non-reimbursed capital improvements) of the disposed property. At the end of the fiscal year, if this number is positive, then the capital gain fee payable for such time period shall equal 15.0% of such amount. No capital gain fee was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021.

Termination Fee

The Advisory Agreement includes a termination fee clause whereby, in the event of our termination of the agreement without cause (with 120 days’ prior written notice and the vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors), a termination fee would be payable to the Adviser equal to two times the sum of the average annual base management fee and incentive fee earned by the Adviser during the 24-month period prior to such termination. A termination fee is also payable if the Adviser terminates the agreement after the Company has defaulted and applicable cure periods have expired. The agreement may also be terminated for cause by us (with 30 days’ prior written notice and the vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors), with no termination fee payable. Cause is defined in the agreement to include if the Adviser breaches any material provisions of the agreement, the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Adviser, dissolution of the Adviser and fraud or misappropriation of funds.

Administration Agreement

Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, we pay separately for our allocable portion of our Administrator’s overhead expenses in performing its obligations to us including, but not limited to, rent and our allocable portion of the salaries and benefits expenses of our Administrator’s employees, including, but not limited to, our chief financial officer, treasurer, chief compliance officer, general counsel and secretary (who also serves as our Administrator’s president, general counsel and secretary), and their respective staffs. Our allocable portion of the Administrator’s expenses are generally derived by multiplying our Administrator’s total expenses by the appropriate percentage of time the Administrator’s employees perform services for us in relation to their time spent performing services for all companies serviced by our Administrator under contractual agreements.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make judgments that are subjective in nature to make certain estimates and assumptions. Application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment regarding the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties, and as a result, actual results could materially differ from these estimates. A summary of all of our significant accounting policies is provided in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed by us with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 15, 2022 (our “2021 Form 10-K”). There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies or estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Results of Operations

The weighted average yield on our total portfolio, which was 7.6% and 8.0% as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, is calculated by taking the annualized straight-line rents plus operating expense recoveries, reflected as lease revenue on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income, less property operating expenses, of each acquisition since inception, as a percentage of the acquisition cost plus subsequent capital improvements. The weighted average yield does not account for the interest expense incurred on the mortgages placed on our properties.

Same Store Analysis

For the purposes of the following discussion, same store properties are properties we owned as of January 1, 2021, which have not been subsequently vacated, or disposed of. Acquired and disposed of properties are properties which were acquired, disposed of or classified as held for sale at any point subsequent to December 31, 2020. Properties with vacancy are properties that were fully vacant or had greater than 5.0% vacancy, based on square footage, at any point subsequent to January 1, 2021.

Lease revenues consist of rental income and operating expense recoveries earned from our tenants. Lease revenues from same store properties increased for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to accelerated rent recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2022 from one tenant that terminated their lease early. Lease revenues from same store properties decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to accelerated rent recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2021 from two tenants that terminated their leases early, partially offset by increased rent from lease amendments executed subsequent to June 30, 2021. We fully re-leased the space from the two terminations with no downtime. Lease revenues increased for acquired and disposed of properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, because we acquired 16 properties subsequent to June 30, 2021. This increase was partially offset by a loss of lease revenues from one property we sold subsequent to June 30, 2021. Lease revenues increased for our properties with vacancy for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 due to vacant space being leased.

Operating Expenses

Depreciation and amortization expense increased for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, due to an increase in depreciation and amortization expense on the 16 properties acquired subsequent to June 30, 2021. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to accelerated depreciation and amortization related to two tenants with early lease terminations during the six months ended June 30, 2021, partially offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization expense on the 16 properties we acquired subsequent to June 30, 2021.

Property operating expenses consist of franchise taxes, property management fees, insurance, ground lease payments, property maintenance and repair expenses paid on behalf of certain of our properties. The decrease in property operating expenses for same store properties for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from the comparable 2021 period, is a result of reduced real estate tax expense during the period, partially offset by general cost increases due to the inflationary environment during the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in property operating expenses for same store properties for the six months ended June 30, 2022, from the comparable 2021 period, is a result of general cost increases due to the inflationary environment during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in property operating expenses for acquired and disposed of properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, is primarily a result of our 16 property acquisitions subsequent to June 30, 2021, partially offset by the sale of one property subsequent to June 30, 2021. The decrease in property operating expenses for properties with vacancy for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, is a result of reduced real estate tax expense during the period, partially offset by general cost increases due to the inflationary environment during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

The base management fee paid to the Adviser increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, due to an increase in Gross Tangible Real Estate over the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the increase in Gross Tangible Real Estate during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The calculation of the base management fee is described in detail above in “Advisory and Administration Agreements.”

The incentive fee paid to the Adviser increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, due to a higher pre-incentive fee Core FFO. The increase in Core FFO is a result of an increase in operating revenues. The calculation of the incentive fee is described in detail above in “Advisory and Administration Agreements.”

The administration fee paid to the Administrator increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, due to our Administrator incurring greater costs that are allocated to us. The calculation of the administration fee is described in detail above in “Advisory and Administration Agreements.”

General and administrative expenses decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of a decrease in legal costs. General and administrative expenses increased for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of an increase in accounting fees and shareholder related expenses, partially offset by a decrease in legal costs.

Other Income and Expenses

Interest expense increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was primarily a result of increased interest costs on variable rate debt, as global interest rates have increased to counteract growing inflation.

We did not sell any properties during the six months ended June 30, 2022, and as a result, incurred no gain or loss. Loss on sale of real estate, net, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, is attributable to two non-core office assets located in Rancho Cordova, California and Champaign, Illinois, being sold during the period.

Other income decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to a cancelled sale fee we earned during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Net Loss Attributable to Common Stockholders and Non-controlling OP Unitholders

Net loss attributable to common stockholders and Non-controlling OP Unitholders decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to the increase in operating revenues due to asset acquisition activity during and subsequent to June 30, 2021, partially offset by an increase in interest expense due to higher borrowing costs on variable rate debt due to global interest rate expansion.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our sources of liquidity include cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, borrowings under our Credit Facility and issuing additional equity securities. Our available liquidity as of June 30, 2022, was $29.1 million, consisting of approximately $10.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity of $18.4 million under our Credit Facility. Our available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility increased to $34.6 million as of August 1, 2022.

Future Capital Needs

We actively seek conservative investments that are likely to produce income to pay distributions to our stockholders. We intend to use the proceeds received from future equity raised and debt capital borrowed to continue to invest in industrial and office real property, make mortgage loans, or pay down outstanding borrowings under our Revolver. Accordingly, to ensure that we are able to effectively execute our business strategy, we routinely review our liquidity requirements and continually evaluate all potential sources of liquidity. Our short-term liquidity needs include proceeds necessary to fund our distributions to stockholders, pay the debt service costs on our existing long-term mortgages, refinancing maturing debt and fund our current operating costs. Our long-term liquidity needs include proceeds necessary to grow and maintain our portfolio of investments.

We believe that our available liquidity is sufficient to fund our distributions to stockholders, pay the debt service costs on our existing long-term mortgages and fund our current operating costs in the near term. We also believe we will be able to refinance our mortgage debt as it matures. Additionally, to satisfy our short-term obligations, we may request credits to our management fees that are issued from our Adviser, although our Adviser is under no obligation to provide any such credits, either in whole or in part. We further believe that our cash flow from operations coupled with the financing capital available to us in the future are sufficient to fund our long-term liquidity needs.

Equity Capital

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we raised net proceeds of $31.7 million of common equity under our Common Stock ATM Program at a net weighted average per share price of $20.84. We used these proceeds to fund acquisitions, pay down outstanding debt and for other general corporate purposes. We did not sell any of our Series E Preferred Stock under our Series E Preferred Stock Sales Agreement during the six months ended June 30, 2022. We raised net proceeds of $2.9 million from sales of our Series F Preferred Stock during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

As of August 1, 2022, we had the ability to raise up to $650.7 million of additional equity capital through the sale and issuance of securities that are registered under the 2020 Universal Shelf, in one or more future public offerings. Of the $650.7 million of available capacity under our 2020 Universal Shelf, approximately $28.0 million is reserved for additional sales under our Common Stock ATM Program, and approximately $622.2 million is reserved for the sale of our Series F Preferred Stock as of August 1, 2022. We expect to continue to use our Common Stock ATM Program as a source of liquidity for the remainder of 2022.

Debt Capital

As of June 30, 2022, we had 54 mortgage notes payable in the aggregate principal amount of $465.8 million, collateralized by a total of 70 properties with a remaining weighted average maturity of 3.7 years. The weighted-average interest rate on the mortgage notes payable as of June 30, 2022 was 4.18%.

We continue to see banks and non-bank lenders willing to issue mortgages. Consequently, we are focused on obtaining mortgages through regional banks, non-bank lenders and the CMBS market.

As of June 30, 2022, we had mortgage debt in the aggregate principal amount of $72.9 million payable during the remainder of 2022 and $83.6 million payable during 2023. The 2022 principal amount payable includes both amortizing principal payments and six balloon principal payments due during the remaining six months of 2022. We anticipate being able to refinance our mortgages that come due during 2022 and 2023 with a combination of new mortgage debt, availability under our Credit Facility and the issuance of additional equity securities. In addition, we have raised substantial equity under our at-the-market programs and plan to continue to use these programs.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022, was $34.6 million, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $34.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This change was primarily a result of an increase in operating revenues from our 16 property acquisitions completed subsequent to June 30, 2021, partially offset by an increase in interest expense due to higher interest rates on variable rate debt. The majority of cash from operating activities is generated from the lease revenues that we receive from our tenants. We utilize this cash to fund our property-level operating expenses and use the excess cash primarily for debt and interest payments on our mortgage notes payable, interest payments on our Credit Facility, distributions to our stockholders, management fees to our Adviser, Administration fees to our Administrator and other entity-level operating expenses.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022, was $57.8 million, which primarily consisted of seven property acquisitions, coupled with capital improvements performed at certain of our properties. Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $17.1 million, which primarily consisted of two property acquisitions, coupled with capital improvements performed at certain of our properties, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of two properties.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022, was $25.3 million, which primarily consisted of the issuance of $35.3 million of common and preferred equity, partially offset by the repayment of $22.0 million of outstanding mortgage debt, and distributions paid to common, senior common and preferred shareholders. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was $14.1 million, which primarily consisted of $10.9 million of mortgage principal repayments, and distributions paid to common, senior common and preferred shareholders, partially offset by $5.5 million in new mortgage borrowings coupled with the issuance of $120.8 million of equity.

Credit Facility

On July 2, 2019, we amended, extended and upsized our Credit Facility, expanding Term Loan A from $75.0 million to $160.0 million, and increasing our Revolver from $85.0 million to $100.0 million. Term Loan A has a maturity date of July 2, 2024, and the Revolver has a maturity date of July 2, 2023. The interest rate for the Credit Facility is equal to LIBOR plus a spread ranging from 125 to 215 basis points depending on our leverage. We entered into multiple interest rate cap agreements on Term Loan A, which cap LIBOR ranging from 2.50% to 2.75%, to hedge our exposure to variable interest rates. The bank syndicate is comprised of KeyBank, Fifth Third Bank, U.S. Bank National Association, The Huntington National Bank, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association.

On February 11, 2021, we added Term Loan B, a new $65.0 million term loan component to our Credit Facility. Term Loan B has a maturity date of February 11, 2026 and a LIBOR floor of 25 basis points plus a spread ranging from 140 to 225 basis points depending on our leverage. We entered into multiple interest rate cap agreements on Term Loan B, which cap LIBOR from 1.50% to 1.75%. We incurred fees of approximately $0.5 million in connection with issuing Term Loan B. As of June 30, 2022, there was $65.0 million outstanding under Term Loan B, and we used all net proceeds to repay all outstanding borrowings on the Revolver.

As of June 30, 2022, there was $272.0 million outstanding under our Credit Facility at a weighted average interest rate of approximately 3.68% and $19.5 million outstanding under letters of credit at a weighted average interest rate of 1.90%. As of August 1, 2022, the maximum additional amount we could draw under the Credit Facility was $34.6 million. We were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2022.

	$	839,176	$	186,487	$	337,990	$	179,253	$	135,446

(1)Debt obligations represent borrowings under our Revolver, which represents $47.0 million of the debt obligation due in 2023, our Term Loan A, which represents $160.0 million of the debt obligation due in 2024, our Term Loan B, which represents $65.0 million of the debt obligation due in 2026 and mortgage notes payable that were outstanding as of June 30, 2022. This figure does not include $(0.1) million of premiums and (discounts), net and $3.7 million of deferred financing costs, net, which are reflected in mortgage notes payable, net and borrowings under Term Loan, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

(2)Interest on debt obligations includes estimated interest on borrowings under our Revolver and Term Loan and mortgage notes payable. The balance and interest rate on our Revolver and Term Loan A and Term Loan B is variable; thus, the interest payment obligation calculated for purposes of this table was based upon rates and balances as of June 30, 2022.

(3)Operating lease obligations represent the ground lease payments due on four of our properties.

(4)Purchase obligations consist of tenant and capital improvements at 11 of our properties.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2022.

Funds from Operations

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) developed Funds from Operations (“FFO”) as a relevant non-GAAP supplemental measure of operating performance of an equity REIT to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the same basis determined under GAAP. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property and impairment losses on property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, which, unlike FFO, generally reflects all cash effects of transactions and other events in the determination of net income. FFO should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance or to cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions. Comparison of FFO, using the NAREIT definition, to similarly titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in the application of the NAREIT definition used by such REITs.

FFO available to common stockholders is FFO adjusted to subtract distributions made to holders of preferred stock and senior common stock. We believe that net income available to common stockholders is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO available to common stockholders.

Basic funds from operations per share (“Basic FFO per share”), and diluted funds from operations per share (“Diluted FFO per share”), is FFO available to common stockholders divided by the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding and FFO available to common stockholders divided by the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding on a diluted basis, respectively, during a period. We believe that FFO available to common stockholders, Basic FFO per share and Diluted FFO per share are useful to investors because they provide investors with a further context for evaluating our FFO results in the same manner that investors use net income and earnings per share (“EPS”), in evaluating net income available to common stockholders. In addition, because most REITs provide FFO available to common stockholders, Basic FFO and Diluted FFO per share information to the investment community, we believe these are useful supplemental measures when comparing us to other REITs. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO, Basic EPS is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Basic FFO per share, and that Diluted EPS is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Diluted FFO per share.

Table of Contents

We also present FFO available to our common stockholders and Non-controlling OP Unitholders as adjusted for comparability as an additional supplemental measure, as we believe it is more reflective of our core operating performance, and provides investors and analysts an additional measure to compare our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. FFO as adjusted for comparability is generally calculated as FFO available to common stockholders and Non-controlling OP Unitholders, excluding certain non-recurring and non-cash income and expense adjustments, which management believes are not reflective of the results within our operating real estate portfolio.

The following table provides a reconciliation of our FFO available to common stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net income available to common stockholders, and a computation of basic and diluted FFO per weighted average share of common stock:

Item 3.			Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. The primary risk that we believe we are and will be exposed to is interest rate risk. Certain of our leases contain escalations based on market indices, and the interest rate on our Credit Facility is variable. Although we seek to mitigate this risk by structuring such provisions of our loans and leases to contain a minimum interest rate or escalation rate, as applicable, these features do not eliminate this risk. To that end, we have entered into derivative contracts to cap interest rates for our variable rate notes payable, and we have entered into interest rate swaps whereby we pay a fixed interest rate to our respective counterparty, and receive one month LIBOR in return. For details regarding our rate cap agreements and our interest rate swap agreements see Note 6 – Mortgage Notes Payable and Credit Facility of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

To illustrate the potential impact of changes in interest rates on our net income for the six months ended June 30, 2022, we have performed the following analysis, which assumes that our condensed consolidated balance sheets remain constant and that no further actions beyond a minimum interest rate or escalation rate are taken to alter our existing interest rate sensitivity.

The following table summarizes the annual impact of a 1%, 2% and 3% increase, and a 1% decrease in the one month LIBOR as of June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, our effective average LIBOR was 1.79%. Given that a 2% or 3% decrease in LIBOR would result in a negative rate, the impact of this fluctuation is not presented below (dollars in thousands).


Interest Rate Change	(Decrease) increase to Interest Expense		Net increase (decrease) to Net Income
1% Decrease to LIBOR	$	(3,067)	$	3,067
1% Increase to LIBOR	1,928		(1,928)
2% Increase to LIBOR	2,627		(2,627)
3% Increase to LIBOR	3,327		(3,327)

As of June 30, 2022, the fair value of our mortgage debt outstanding was $441.5 million. Interest rate fluctuations may affect the fair value of our debt instruments. If interest rates on our debt instruments, using rates at June 30, 2022, had been one percentage point higher or lower, the fair value of those debt instruments on that date would have decreased or increased by $12.3 million and $13.1 million, respectively.

The amount outstanding under the Credit Facility approximates fair value as of June 30, 2022.

In the future, we may be exposed to additional effects of interest rate changes, primarily as a result of our Revolver, Term Loan A, and Term Loan B, or long-term mortgage debt, which we use to maintain liquidity and fund expansion of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we will borrow primarily at fixed rates or variable rates with the lowest margins available and, in some cases, with the ability to convert variable rates to fixed rates. Additionally, we believe that there may be minimal impact on our variable rate debt, which is based upon one month LIBOR, as a result of the expected transition from LIBOR to SOFR. We are currently monitoring the transition and the potential risks to us. We may also enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and caps to mitigate the interest rate risk on a related financial instrument. We will not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.

In addition to anticipated changes in interest rates, the value of our real estate is subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of lessees and borrowers, all of which may affect our ability to refinance debt, if necessary.

Item 4.			Controls and Procedures.

a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2022, our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2022 in providing a reasonable level of assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms, including providing a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable assurance of necessarily achieving the desired control objectives, and management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
