1.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

INDUS Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, (“INDUS” or the “Company”) is a real estate business that has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) as defined in the Internal Revenue Service Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and is principally engaged in developing, acquiring, managing and leasing high-quality industrial and logistics properties in select supply-constrained and high growth markets in the United States. The Company conducts substantially all of its business through its operating partnership, INDUS RT, LP, a Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. As used herein, the “Company” refers to INDUS Realty Trust, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and partnerships, including the Operating Partnership, except where context otherwise requires.

As of September 30, 2022, INDUS owned 42 industrial/logistics properties aggregating approximately 6.1 million square feet located in Connecticut, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida. INDUS seeks to add to its property portfolio through the acquisition and development of land or the acquisition of modern, market-appropriate logistics buildings in the regions it targets, all of which can serve multiple drivers of demand in the modern supply chain. INDUS also owns undeveloped land parcels, much of which is not consistent with the Company’s core industrial and logistics strategy, and, as such, the Company sells certain parcels periodically over time.

The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain amounts from the prior year periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

INDUS’ consolidated financial statements reflect its accounts and its consolidated subsidiaries. INDUS consolidates the subsidiaries it controls through (i) voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if INDUS is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). There have been no VIEs in which INDUS is not a primary beneficiary.

These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the standards of accounting measurement set forth by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 270, “Interim Reporting” and in accordance with the accounting policies stated in INDUS’ audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in INDUS’ Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2022. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in that report. All adjustments, comprising only normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods, have been reflected and all intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses in the reporting period. The actual results experienced by INDUS may differ materially and adversely from INDUS’ estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

There are various accounting updates recently issued which represent technical corrections to the accounting literature or apply to specific industries. INDUS does not expect the application of any of these updates to have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

INDUS considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. INDUS’ restricted cash primarily consists of reserves for real estate taxes as required by certain mortgage note obligations as well as proceeds from property sales held by a qualified intermediary to be used for a tax deferred Section 1031 Like-Kind Exchange (“1031 Like-Kind Exchange”) under the Code.

Discontinued Operations

Operating results and the gain or loss on sale for a component or groups of components, whose disposition represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, are presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations and the assets and liabilities of the component to be disposed of are classified as held for sale. In March 2022, INDUS commenced the sale process to fully exit its legacy investment in its remaining office/flex properties (“Office/Flex Portfolio”). The Office/Flex Portfolio is comprised of seven buildings totaling approximately 175,000 square feet located in Bloomfield, Connecticut. Additionally, INDUS intends to sell an approximately 18,000 square foot storage building that had been used in the operations of the Office/Flex Portfolio and is located within the same business park. In March 2022, the Company closed its Landscaping Division which primarily served the Office/Flex Portfolio and recorded a gain on sale of $203 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The disposition of the Office/Flex Portfolio represents a strategic shift and following the sale, the Company will be positioned as a pure-play industrial/logistics real estate business with a modern portfolio located in select high-growth markets. The Office/Flex Portfolio is recorded as a discontinued operation as of September 30, 2022 and for all prior periods presented, the related assets and liabilities are presented as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets and the related operating results are presented as income (loss) from discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations. In September 2022, the Company signed a definitive agreement for the sale of the Office/Flex Portfolio at a gross purchase price of $11,000 and expects to close the transaction in the fourth quarter of 2022 (see Note 4).

Reclassifications

Reclassifications were made related to discontinued operations as discussed in Discontinued Operations above. These reclassifications did not affect the Company's total financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

2. Sales of Common Stock

Public Offering

On February 2, 2021, INDUS filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Universal Shelf”) with the SEC. Under the Universal Shelf, the Company could offer and sell up to $500,000 of a variety of securities including the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”), preferred stock, warrants, depositary shares, units or any combination of such securities. Under the Universal Shelf, the Company may periodically offer one or more types of securities in amounts, at prices and on terms announced.

On March 5, 2021, under its Universal Shelf, INDUS completed an underwritten public offering of 1,750,000 shares of its Common Stock at a price to the underwriters of $56.85 per share. On March 15, 2021, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional 177,049 shares of Common Stock from INDUS at the same price. INDUS received net proceeds of $108,676, after expenses, from the aggregate of 1,927,049 shares issued on March 5, 2021, and March 15, 2021. The Company has used the proceeds from the issuance of its Common Stock to finance its acquisition and development pipeline and for other corporate purposes.

On July 9, 2021, INDUS and INDUS RT, LP filed an updated universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Updated Universal Shelf”) with the SEC. Under the Updated Universal Shelf, the Company may offer and sell up to $500,000 of a variety of securities including Common Stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, depositary shares, rights or units, INDUS RT, LP’s debt securities or guarantees thereof by the Company, or any combination of such securities during the three year period that commenced on August 10, 2021. Under the Updated Universal Shelf, which adds debt securities of the Company and of INDUS RT, LP that the Universal Shelf did not include, the Company may periodically offer one or more types of securities in amounts, at prices and on terms announced. When INDUS obtains additional capital by issuing equity, the interests of its existing stockholders will be diluted. If the Company incurs additional indebtedness, that indebtedness may impose financial and other

covenants that may significantly restrict INDUS’s operations. Effective September 1, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the establishment of an “at the market” equity issuance program (“ATM Program”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell Common Stock with an aggregate gross sales price of up to $100,000. There have not been any issuances of Common Stock under the ATM Program.

3.    Fair Value

INDUS applies the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” which establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs, when measuring fair value. The categorization of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, as follows:

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Level 2 assets and liabilities include INDUS’ interest rate swap agreements (see Note 5). These inputs are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets, therefore, INDUS has categorized these derivative instruments as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The following are INDUS’ financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value and measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The amounts included in the consolidated financial statements for cash and cash equivalents, leasing receivables from tenants, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and interest rate swap assets and liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair values of the interest rate swaps (used for purposes other than trading) are determined based on discounted cash flow models that incorporate the cash flows of the derivatives as well as the current Overnight Index Swap Rate and swap curve along with other market data, taking into account current interest rates and the credit worthiness of the counterparty for assets and the credit worthiness of INDUS for liabilities.

The fair values of the mortgage loans, delayed draw term loan and construction loan, net of debt issuance costs, are estimated based on current rates offered to INDUS for similar debt of the same remaining maturities and, additionally, INDUS considers its credit worthiness in determining the fair value of its mortgage loans. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021,

the carrying values of the mortgage loans, delayed draw term loan and construction loan were $138,811 and $169,818, respectively, and the fair values of the mortgage loans, delayed draw term loan and construction loan were $136,669 and $180,731, respectively.

In March 2022, the Company announced its intention to sell its Office/Flex Portfolio (see Note 1). The Office/Flex Portfolio is comprised of seven buildings totaling approximately 175,000 square feet located in Bloomfield, Connecticut. Additionally, INDUS intends to sell an approximately 18,000 square foot storage building that had been used in the operations of the Office/Flex Portfolio and is located within the same business park. The disposition of the Office/Flex Portfolio represents a strategic shift for the Company and, as such, is being treated as a discontinued operation as of September 30, 2022. Accordingly, for all prior periods presented, the related assets and liabilities are presented as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets.

*Variable rate loans for which INDUS entered into interest rate swap agreements to effectively fix the interest rates on these loans to the rates reflected above.

INDUS’ weighted average interest rate on its outstanding mortgage loans, delayed draw term loan and construction loan, including the effect of its interest rate swap agreements, was 4.13% and 3.76% as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company accounts for its interest rate swap agreements as effective cash flow hedges. Amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) will be reclassified into interest expense over the term of the swap agreements to achieve fixed interest rates on each variable rate mortgage. None of the interest rate swap agreements contain any credit risk related contingent features. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, INDUS recognized gains, included in other comprehensive income, of $10,795 and $3,587, respectively, on its interest rate swap agreements. As of September 30, 2022, $2,121 was expected to be reclassified over the next twelve months to AOCI from interest expense. Interest income related to INDUS’ interest rate swap agreements in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $403 and interest expense related to INDUS’ interest rate swap agreements in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $1,504.

On April 21, 2022, INDUS entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) for a $250,000 secured credit facility (the “New Credit Facility”) (see Note 6), amending and restating the $100,000 credit facility executed on August 5, 2021 (the “Existing Credit Facility”) to include the addition of a delayed draw term loan facility (the “DDTL Facility”) of $150,000 for a term of five years, pursuant to which up to three separate draws may be made prior to April 21, 2023 (the first two of which must each be in a minimum amount of $25,000).

The Company made the first of such draws under the DDTL Facility in May 2022 and as of September 30, 2022, INDUS had drawn $60,000 under the DDTL Facility (see Note 6). The Company used these proceeds to repay four of its nonrecourse mortgage loans, that had encumbered ten buildings, in the amount of $61,787, resulting in a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $464. In connection with the repayments, the Company also terminated associated interest rate hedges resulting in a gain of $1,227 recorded against interest expense and recognized an income tax benefit of $585 related to the reclassification of gains included in other comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2022, the net debt issuance costs related to the DDTL Facility were $1,361. The ten buildings previously encumbered by the nonrecourse mortgage loans that were prepaid (as discussed above) were added to the borrowing base of the Company’s New Credit Facility.

13

Table of Contents

The DDTL Facility bears interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 1.15%, based on the Company’s ratio of total indebtedness to total assets. Concurrent with the closing on the DDTL Facility, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to fix the interest rate on the DDTL Facility at an effective rate of 4.15%.

On August 25, 2022, INDUS repaid its construction loan (the “JPM Construction Loan”) with JPMorgan, which had provided the funds for the site work and development of 9817 Old Statesville Road, Charlotte, North Carolina. The JPM Construction Loan was due on May 7, 2023, held a one-year extension at the Company’s option and a rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.40%. INDUS paid the principal amount then outstanding of $26,342 and wrote off $189 of unamortized financing costs recorded as a loss on early extinguishment of debt for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

(a) (b) and (c) represent multiple interest rate swap agreements against a single mortgage

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom, which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), announced that it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after June 30, 2023. INDUS currently expects LIBOR-indexed rates to be available through that date, however, it is possible that they will become unavailable prior to that time. The interest rate on INDUS’ floating rate debt under nonrecourse mortgage loans is based on LIBOR, however, INDUS entered into interest rate swap agreements whereby the floating LIBOR rates under all mortgage loans are hedged, effectively fixing the interest rate on those loans. INDUS’ loan documents contain provisions that contemplate alternative methods to determine the base rate applicable to our LIBOR-indexed debt to the extent LIBOR-indexed rates are not available. INDUS will continue to monitor and evaluate the impact, if any, on debt payments and the value of the Company’s floating rate debt.

6.     Revolving and Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility Credit Agreement

On April 21, 2022, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated to provide for, among other things: (1) the addition of the DDTL Facility of $150,000 (see Note 5), pursuant to which up to three separate draws may be made prior to April 21, 2023 (the first two of which each must be in a minimum amount of $25,000), and (2) the transition from LIBOR to SOFR for floating rate borrowings for all purposes under the Credit Agreement. The DDTL Facility will mature on April 21, 2027. The New Credit Facility continues to include a $100,000 revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), however, the maturity of the Revolving Credit Facility has been extended to April 21, 2025. The two one-year extensions at the Company’s option under the Existing Credit Facility remain in place under the New Credit Facility. The New Credit Facility also increases the uncommitted incremental facility, which, as amended, would enable the Company to increase the New Credit Facility by up to $250,000 in the aggregate, for a total of $500,000.

Borrowings under the New Credit Facility will continue to bear interest subject to a pricing grid for changes in the Company’s total leverage.  Based on the Company’s current leverage, the initial annual interest rates under the New Credit Facility would be (i) SOFR plus 1.20% for revolving borrowings (the same applicable margin as under the Existing Credit Facility), and (ii) SOFR plus 1.15% for term borrowings (compared with LIBOR plus 1.20% under the Existing Credit Facility). The annual interest rate under the Existing Credit Facility was one-month LIBOR plus 1.20%. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had drawn $60,000 under the DDTL Facility (see Note 5).

Under the terms of the New Credit Facility, INDUS must maintain: (i) a consolidated tangible net worth of $319,149 plus 75% of the aggregate increases in stockholders’ equity of the Company by reason of issuance or sale of equity of the Company after March 31, 2021; (ii) a fixed charge coverage ratio of (a) 1.25 to 1.0 through March 31, 2022, and (b) 1.50 to 1.0 on and after June 30, 2022; (iii) a maximum leverage ratio of total indebtedness to total assets of less than 60% on the last day of any fiscal quarter; (iv) a maximum secured leverage ratio of total secured indebtedness to total asset value of (a) 50% through December 31, 2022, and (b) 40% on and after March 31, 2023; (v) a minimum borrowing base of (a) $75,000 through December 30, 2022 (compared with $30,000 under the Existing Credit Facility), (b) $125,000 from December 31, 2022 through December 30, 2023 (compared with $50,000 under the Existing Credit Facility), and (c) $250,000 on and after December 31, 2023 (compared with $100,000 under the Existing Credit Facility); and (vi) a minimum of (a) five industrial unencumbered properties from June 30, 2021 through December 30, 2023, and (b) eight industrial unencumbered properties on and after December 31, 2023.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the New Credit Facility and based on the unencumbered properties pledged, the maximum amount available could be borrowed. In addition to the $60,000 drawn under the DDTL Facility, the New Credit Facility also secures certain unused standby letters of credit aggregating $5,873 that are related to INDUS' development activities.

The cash portion of the special dividend paid to stockholders was $3,404 and 125,212 shares of Common Stock were issued.

INDUS declared cash dividends of $0.15 per share on its Common Stock on September 1, 2021 and May 7, 2021. INDUS paid $1,159 and $1,158, respectively, for these dividends on September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021.

8.     Leases

The Company’s rental revenue reflects the leasing of space to tenants primarily under non-cancelable operating leases that generally contain provisions for minimum base rents plus reimbursement for certain operating expenses. Total minimum lease payments are recognized in rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease and estimated reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses are recognized in rental income in the period that the expenses are incurred. INDUS does not have any variable payment leases with its tenants.

All of INDUS’ leases with its tenants are classified as operating leases with the exception of a sixty-five year ground lease of a small land parcel which is a sale-type lease. As such, a gain of approximately $1,000 on that lease is included in gain on sales of real estate assets in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Overview

INDUS Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“INDUS” or the “Company”) is a real estate business that has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) as defined in the Internal Revenue Service Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and is principally engaged in developing, acquiring, managing and leasing high-quality industrial and logistics properties in select supply-constrained and high growth markets in the United States. The Company conducts substantially all of its business through its operating partnership, INDUS RT, LP, a Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. As used herein, the “Company” refers to INDUS Realty Trust, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and partnerships, including the Operating Partnership, except where context otherwise requires.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, economic uncertainty and equity and debt market volatility have increased due to a number of factors such as investor sentiment and recession concerns, rapidly increasing interest rates, rising inflation, lingering supply chain disruptions and current geopolitical events. While these factors have not had a significant adverse impact on INDUS to date, they may adversely impact the Company in the future. Substantially all of the Company’s leases include scheduled rent increases and require the tenants to pay operating expenses, insurance and real estate taxes for the spaces they occupy. These lease provisions help to mitigate the Company’s exposure to increases in operating expenses resulting from inflation or other factors.  Costs that are not related to building operations are not passed through to tenants and, accordingly, increases in the Company’s cost of doing business such as wages and interest expense could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.  Additionally, any one or a combination of these factors may also adversely impact the financial stability of one or more of the Company’s tenants, which in turn has the potential to negatively impact the Company’s collection of scheduled rent and operating expenses, insurance and real estate taxes as noted above.

As of September 30, 2022, INDUS owned 42 industrial/logistics properties aggregating approximately 6.1 million square feet located in Connecticut, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida. The Company seeks to add to its property portfolio through the acquisition and development of land or the acquisition of modern, market-appropriate logistics buildings in the regions it targets, all of which can serve multiple drivers of demand in the modern supply chain. As of September 30, 2022, all properties are wholly-owned, however, INDUS may in the future, selectively acquire, own and/or develop properties through other ownership structures such as joint ventures with other persons or entities when such transactions are warranted by the circumstances. INDUS also owns undeveloped land parcels, much of which is not consistent with the Company’s core industrial and logistics strategy, and, as such, the Company sells certain properties periodically over time. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has entered into several agreements to sell an aggregate of approximately 411 acres of undeveloped land for an aggregate sales price of approximately $24.9 million. The land sales are expected to close during the year ending December 31, 2023.

In March 2022, the Company announced its intention to sell its legacy investment in its remaining office/flex properties (“Office/Flex Portfolio”). The Office/Flex Portfolio is comprised of seven buildings totaling approximately 175,000 square feet located in Bloomfield, Connecticut. Additionally, INDUS intends to sell an approximately 18,000 square foot storage building which had been used in the operations of the Office/Flex Portfolio and is located within the same business park. Also, in March 2022, the Company closed its Landscaping Division which primarily served the Office/Flex Portfolio and recorded a gain on sale of $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The disposition of the Office/Flex Portfolio represents a strategic shift for the Company and, as such, is being treated as a discontinued operation as of September 30, 2022. In September 2022, the Company signed a definitive agreement for the sale of the Office/Flex Portfolio at a gross purchase price of $11,000 and expects to complete the transaction in the fourth quarter of 2022.

The significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of INDUS’ unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are consistent with those used in the preparation of INDUS’ audited consolidated financial statements for its year ended December 31, 2021 included in INDUS’ Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Form 10-K”) as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2022.

Results of Operations

The Company’s net income was approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to a net loss of approximately $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The Company’s rental revenue increased approximately 27% compared to the same quarter of the prior year primarily due to the significant development and acquisition

22

Table of Contents

activity aggregating to a net addition of approximately 1.2 million square feet subsequent to September 30, 2021. The net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2021, reflected a $3.0 million impairment charge on two office buildings that were subsequently sold and a $2.0 million change in fair value related to a contingent value rights agreement, which expired pursuant to its terms with no payment, and the cash settlement option of a warrant which also expired. Upon expiration of the cash settlement option, the warrant was reclassified into equity.

The Company’s net income was approximately $4.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to a net loss of $5.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The Company’s rental revenue increased approximately 25% compared to the same nine month period of the prior year. The Company’s in-service occupancy was 97.6% and 95.4% as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. At September 30, 2022, the Company owned 42 industrial/logistics buildings aggregating approximately 6.1 million square feet as compared to 33 industrial/logistics buildings aggregating approximately 4.9 million square feet as of September 30, 2021.

Net income from discontinued operations was approximately $0.3 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Net income from discontinued operations was approximately $0.7 million and $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Included in net income from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was a gain on the sale of equipment of $0.2 million related to the closure of the Company’s Landscaping Division which primarily served the Office/Flex Portfolio. 

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2021

Rental Revenues

Total rental revenue was $13.0 million and $10.2 million for the third quarter of 2022 and 2021, respectively. The 27% increase in rental revenue was primarily due to significant development and acquisition activity and increases in overall total portfolio occupancy that occurred subsequent to September 30, 2021 as detailed in the chart below.

Table of Contents

expenses due to the buildings acquired and developed in 2022 was offset by a reduction of operating expenses for properties sold, primarily in the second half of 2021.

Real estate taxes increased to approximately $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in real estate taxes principally reflected the buildings acquired and developed in 2022, partially offset by reductions related to property sales in 2021.

The increase in depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021 primarily reflects depreciation expense recorded on new properties acquired while reductions in depreciation related to properties sold were minimal as 2021 sales were comprised of low-basis assets and non-core land parcels.

General and administrative expenses of approximately $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased as compared to $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $0.6 million in compensation costs due to higher employee headcount related to the Company’s growth.

Interest expense was $1.5 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in interest expense primarily reflects the reduction in the aggregate debt balance, net of issuance costs to $138.8 million as of September 30, 2022 from $166.5 million as of September 30, 2021. Interest expense is net of capitalized interest related to the Company’s development activities. Capitalized interest was $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The impairment of real estate assets of $3.0 million recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2021 related to two office/flex properties that were subsequently sold in November 2021.

The change in fair value of financial instruments of $2.0 million recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2021 reflected a non-cash mark to market charge related to the fair value of a warrant issued on August 24, 2020 with a cash settlement provision which was reflected as a liability at its fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. On August 24, 2021, the warrant’s cash settlement provision expired and the fair value of the warrant as of that date was reclassified into stockholders’ equity.

The loss on early extinguishment of debt of $0.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022 related to the write off of unamortized debt issuance costs related to a construction loan repaid on August 25, 2022.

The gain on sales of real estate assets of $1.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 represented the sale of non-core assets including undeveloped land and $1.0 million of gain from a sixty-five year ground lease for a parcel used as a cell tower site. Under the terms of that agreement, the proceeds of approximately $1.0 million for the entire term were received at the inception of the lease, resulting in the transaction being recorded as a sales-type lease.

Investment and other income is primarily comprised of net interest income earned on cash balances held by the Company in interest-bearing accounts.

24

Table of Contents

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had no income tax expense. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded a provision for taxes of less than $0.1 million. The Company has elected to be treated as a REIT for federal tax purposes, however, the Company does conduct business in a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) which is subject to federal, state and local income tax for income received in the TRS.

The Company’s total net operating income (“NOI”) from continuing operations and NOI on a cash basis (“Cash NOI”)1 from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

(a)The three months ended September 30, 2021 include the results of three office/flex properties that were sold in 2021 and were not part of discontinued operations.

The increases in NOI from continuing operations and Cash NOI from continuing operations principally reflected the increase in rental revenue primarily derived from the acquisition and development of additional properties after September 30, 2021. In addition, during the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a termination fee in the amount of $0.4 million related to an early termination of a tenant lease in August. The vacated space was immediately released to a new tenant. See below under “non-GAAP reconciliations” for information regarding why the Company believes NOI from continuing operations and Cash NOI from continuing operations are meaningful supplemental measures of its performance and reconciliations of these measures from net income (loss), presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021

Rental Revenues

Total rental revenue was $36.3 million and $29.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The 25% increase in rental revenue was primarily due to significant development and acquisition activity and increases in overall total portfolio occupancy, as detailed in the below chart.

1 INDUS defines “Cash NOI from continuing operations” as rental revenue less operating expenses of rental properties, real estate taxes and non-cash rental revenue, including straight-line rents. Cash NOI from continuing operations is not a financial measure in conformity with U.S. GAAP. See below under “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” for information regarding why the Company believes this is a meaningful supplemental measure of its performance and a reconciliation of this measure from net income (loss), presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Operating expenses of rental properties were essentially unchanged for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021. An increase in operating expenses due to the buildings acquired and developed in 2022 was offset by a reduction of operating expenses for properties sold, primarily in the second half of 2021.

Real estate taxes increased to approximately $4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to approximately $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in real estate taxes principally reflected the buildings acquired and developed in 2022, partially offset by property sales in 2021.

The increase in depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily reflects depreciation expense recorded on new properties acquired while reductions in depreciation related to properties sold were minimal as 2021 sales were comprised of low-basis assets and non-core land parcels.

General and administrative expenses increased to approximately $8.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to $8.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $2.0 million in compensation costs due to higher employee headcount related to the Company’s growth, offset by a decrease of approximately $1.2 million in expenses related to the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan due to the effect of the lower stock market performance in the 2022 nine month period as compared to the 2021 nine month period. Additionally, there was a reduction of $0.4 million in real estate taxes and maintenances costs on undeveloped land in the 2022 nine month period due to land sales that occurred in the 2021 nine month period.

Interest expense was $3.2 million and $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily reflects a gain of $1.2 million from the termination of several interest rate hedges in connection with the repayment of mortgage debt as well as an increase in capitalized interest of approximately $0.4 million relating to the increase in the Company’s properties under development. The remainder of the decrease in interest expense primarily reflects the reduction in the aggregate debt balance, net of issuance costs, to $138.8 million as of September 30, 2022 from $166.5 million as of September 30, 2021. Interest expense is net of capitalized interest related to the Company’s development activities. Capitalized interest was $1.3 million and $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The impairment of real estate assets of $3.0 million recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 related to two office/flex properties that were subsequently sold in November 2021.

The change in fair value of financial instruments of $2.7 million recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 reflected a non-cash mark to market charge related to the fair value of a warrant with a cash settlement provision which was reflected as a liability at its fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. On August 24, 2021, the warrant’s cash settlement provision expired and the fair value of the warrant as of that date was reclassified into stockholders’ equity.

The loss on early extinguishment of debt of $0.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 related to the repayment of four nonrecourse mortgage loans during the second quarter of 2022 and unamortized debt issuance costs related to a construction loan repaid on August 25, 2022.

The gain on sales of real estate assets of $1.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 represented the sale of non-core assets including undeveloped land and $1.0 million of gain from a sixty-five year ground lease for a parcel used as a cell tower site. Under the terms of that agreement, the proceeds of approximately $1.0 million for the entire term were received at the inception of the lease, resulting in the transaction being recorded as a sales-type lease.

Investment and other income is primarily comprised of net interest income earned on cash balances held by the Company in interest-bearing accounts.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded an income tax benefit (provision) of $0.6 million and less than $(0.1) million, respectively. The Company has elected to be treated as a REIT for federal tax purposes, however, the Company does conduct business in a TRS which is subject to federal, state and local income tax for income received in the TRS. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $0.6 million related to the reclassification of gains included in other comprehensive income related to the termination of several interest rate hedges.

(a)The nine months ended September 30, 2021 include the results of four office/flex properties that were sold in 2021 and were not part of discontinued operations.

The increases in NOI from continuing operations and Cash NOI from continuing operations principally reflected the increase in rental revenue primarily derived from the acquisition and development of additional properties after September 30, 2021. In addition, during the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a termination fee in the amount of $0.4 million related to an early termination of a tenant lease in August. The vacated space was immediately released to a new tenant. See below under “non-GAAP reconciliations” for information regarding why the Company believes NOI from continuing operations and Cash NOI from continuing operations are meaningful supplemental measures of its performance and reconciliations of these measures from net income (loss), presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations

The Company uses NOI from continuing operations, Cash NOI from continuing operations, Funds from continuing operations (“FFO”), Core funds from continuing operations (“Core FFO”), Adjusted funds from continuing operations (“Adjusted FFO”), Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental non-GAAP performance measures. Management believes that the use of these measures combined with net income (loss), which remains the Company’s primary measure of performance, improves the understanding of the Company’s operating results among the investing public and makes comparisons of operating results to other REITs more meaningful. The most comparable U.S. GAAP measure to NOI from continuing operations, Cash NOI from continuing operations, FFO, Core FFO, Adjusted FFO, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is net income (loss).

These measures exclude expenses that materially impact the Company’s overall results of operations and, therefore, should not be considered as substitute measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Furthermore, these metrics may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Certain of these measures may be calculated based on or substantially in accordance with definitions set forth by The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”). Nareit is widely recognized as a representative organization for REITs and real estate companies with an interest in U.S. real estate. Nareit’s members are REITs and other real estate companies throughout the world that own, operate, and finance income-producing real estate, as well as those firms and individuals who advise, study, and service those businesses.

NOI from Continuing Operations and Cash NOI from Continuing Operations

NOI from continuing operations is a non-GAAP measure that includes the rental revenue and operating expenses and real estate taxes directly attributable to the Company’s real estate properties. The Company uses NOI from continuing operations as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding real estate depreciation and amortization expense, general and administrative expenses, interest expense, impairment loss, change in fair value of financial instruments, gains (or losses) on early extinguishment of debt, gains (or losses) on the sale of real estate assets, investment income and other non-operating items, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. The Company also believes that NOI from continuing operations will be useful to investors as a basis to compare its operating performance with that of other REITs. However, because NOI from continuing operations excludes depreciation and amortization expense and captures neither the changes in the value of the Company’s properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of its properties (all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact the Company’s results from operations), the utility

28

Table of Contents

of NOI from continuing operations as a measure of the Company’s performance is limited. Other equity REITs may not calculate NOI from continuing operations in a similar manner and, as such, the Company’s NOI from continuing operations may not be comparable to such other REITs’ NOI from continuing operations. Accordingly, NOI from continuing operations should be considered only as a supplement to net income (loss) as a measure of the Company’s performance. NOI from continuing operations should not be used as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs. NOI from continuing operations should not be used as a substitute for cash flow from operating activities in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Cash NOI from continuing operations is a non-GAAP measure that the Company calculates by adding or subtracting non-cash rental revenue, including straight-line rental revenue, from NOI from continuing operations. The Company uses Cash NOI from continuing operations, together with NOI from continuing operations, as supplemental performance measures. Cash NOI from continuing operations should not be used as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs. Cash NOI from continuing operations should not be used as a substitute for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

(a)The three months and nine months ended September 30, 2021 include the results of three and four office/flex properties, respectively, that were sold in 2021 and were not part of discontinued operations during the periods presented.

In an effort to improve the understanding of the Company’s operating results as compared to its operating results in a prior period and that of other REITs, the Company presents a funds from continuing operations metric substantially similar to funds from operations as calculated in accordance with standards established by Nareit (“Nareit FFO”).

Nareit FFO is calculated as net income (calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP), excluding: (a) depreciation and amortization related to real estate, (b) gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, (c) gains and losses from change in control and (d) impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity.

Core Funds from Continuing Operations

The Company defines Core FFO from continuing operations as FFO excluding (a) discontinued operations, (b) the write-off of non-recurring items, (c) expense related to the performance of the non-qualified deferred compensation plan, (d) gains or losses on insurance recoveries and/or extinguishment of debt or derivative instruments, (e) change in fair value of financial instruments, and (f) costs related to conversion to a REIT.

Adjusted Funds from Continuing Operations

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization

The Company defines EBITDA as income (loss) from continuing operations (computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP) excluding (a) interest expense, (b) income tax provision (benefit), (c) depreciation and amortization expense, (d) gains and losses on the disposition of real estate assets (including gains or losses on change of control), (e) impairment write-downs of depreciated property, and (f) adjustments to reflect the entity’s share of EBITDA of unconsolidated affiliates. INDUS does not currently have any unconsolidated properties or joint ventures.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for (a) general and administrative expenses related to the REIT conversion, (b) noncash stock-based compensation expense and expenses or credits related to the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan that are included in general and administrative expenses, (c) change in fair value of financial instruments, and (d) gains or losses on the extinguishment of debt or derivative instruments.

Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $14.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to approximately $5.7 million in the 2021 nine month period. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was principally due to the increase in Cash NOI from continuing operations and the change in other assets due to the timing of the payment of real estate taxes.

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $113.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to approximately $110.6 million in the 2021 nine month period. The net cash used in investing activities in the 2022 period primarily reflected: (i) the purchase of an approximately 205,000 square foot, fully leased portfolio in the Palm Beach and Orlando markets in Florida in June 2022 for $31.7 million; (ii) the purchase of an approximately 217,000 square foot, fully leased building in the Charlotte, North Carolina market in January 2022 for $24.0 million; (iii) cash payments of $51.0 million related to investments in real estate assets and industrial and logistics properties under development; and (iv) deposits of approximately $5.3 million on building and land acquisitions. The net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily reflected the purchase of three industrial/logistics buildings for $78.0 million, $33.7 million for investments in real estate assets and $6.5 million for deposits on building acquisitions and purchases partially offset by approximately $10.0 million related to sales of non-core real estate assets.

Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $35.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to $112.3 million of cash provided by financing activities in the 2021 nine month period. The net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily reflected $61.8 million for the prepayment of four nonrecourse mortgage loans, $26.3 million related to the repayment of a construction loan, $2.6 million of recurring principal payments on mortgage loans and $4.9 million of dividend payments to stockholders, partially offset by proceeds of $60.0 million related to the first draw under the Company’s delayed draw term loan facility (the “DDTL Facility”) (see Liquidity below). The net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 principally reflected approximately $108.7 million from the sale of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) and $14.7 million of proceeds from borrowing on the construction loan, partially offset by $3.8 million in principal payments on mortgage loans and approximately $5.7 million of dividend payments, including the Company’s special dividend made in connection with its REIT election.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In the near-term, the Company plans to continue to invest in its real estate business, including the potential acquisition of additional properties and/or undeveloped land parcels, which, under certain circumstances, the Company may consider owning through other ownership structures such as joint ventures. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had five buildings under contract for purchase comprising approximately 1.0 million square feet at an estimated purchase price of approximately $109.2 million, of which $16.1 was spent as of September 30, 2022. In addition, the Company has land under development for one additional building comprising 0.2 million square feet for an estimated investment of $28.3 million, of which $6.9 million was spent as of September 30, 2022. The company also has approximately 250 acres of land owned or under contract with an estimated purchase price of $13.6 million for potential future development of six additional buildings for approximately 0.8 million square feet.

Real estate acquisitions may or may not occur based on many contingencies and other factors, including real estate pricing and there can be no guarantee that acquisitions in the Company’s pipeline will be completed under their current terms, anticipated timelines, or at all. The Company may commence speculative construction projects on its undeveloped land that is either currently owned or acquired in the future if it believes market conditions are favorable for such development. The Company may also construct build-to-suit facilities on its undeveloped land if lease terms are favorable. Real estate acquisitions and planned construction projects may or may not occur or reach completion based on many factors, including, without limitation, real estate pricing and the availability and cost of construction inputs.

In March 2022, the Company announced its intention to sell its Office/Flex Portfolio. The Office/Flex Portfolio is comprised of seven buildings totaling approximately 175,000 square feet located in Bloomfield, Connecticut. Additionally, INDUS intends to sell an approximately 18,000 square foot storage building which had been used in the operations of the Office/Flex Portfolio and is located within the same business park. In September 2022, the Company signed a definitive agreement for the sale of the Office/Flex Portfolio at a gross purchase price of $11,000 and expects to complete the transaction in the fourth quarter of 2022.

INDUS also owns undeveloped land parcels, much of which is not consistent with the Company’s core industrial and logistics strategy, and, therefore, the Company sells certain properties periodically over time. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has entered into several agreements to sell an aggregate of approximately 411 acres of undeveloped land for an aggregate sales price of approximately $24.9 million. The land sales are expected to close during the year ending December 31, 2023.

On April 21, 2022, INDUS amended its $100 million credit facility executed on August 5, 2021, to add the DDTL Facility of $150 million for a term of five years (as amended the “Credit Facility”), pursuant to which up to three separate draws may be made prior to April 21, 2023 (the first two of which must each be in a minimum amount of $25 million). As of September 30, 2022, the Company had drawn $60 million under the DDTL Facility. The Credit Facility continues to include a $100 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), however, the maturity of the Revolving Credit Facility has been extended to April 21, 2025. The two one-year extensions at the Company’s option under the Credit Facility remain in place. The amendment to the Credit Facility also increases the uncommitted incremental facility, which, as amended, would enable the Company to increase the Credit Facility by up to an additional $250 million for an aggregate total of $500 million, subject to satisfaction of certain financial covenants including limitations on a minimum tangible net worth, fixed charge coverage ratios, total leverage and secured indebtedness. The Company currently has no borrowings outstanding under its Revolving Credit Facility.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $26.0 million. Management believes that its cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022, cash generated from leasing operations, sale of the Office/Flex Portfolio, sales of non-core undeveloped land parcels and borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility and DDTL Facility, will be sufficient to meet its working capital requirements, fund planned acquisitions and developments of industrial/logistics buildings, and pay regular dividends on its Common Stock, when and if declared by the Board of Directors, for at least the next twelve months. Other than the foregoing, there have been no material changes to our capital requirements and resources described in Part II, Item 7 of our 2021 Form 10-K.

As a result of the amendments to Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X, subsidiary issuers of obligations guaranteed by the parent are not required to provide separate financial statements, provided that the subsidiary obligor is consolidated into the parent company’s consolidated financial statements, the parent guarantee is “full and unconditional” and, subject to certain exceptions as set forth below, the alternative disclosure required by Rule 13-01 is provided, which includes narrative disclosure and summarized financial information. Accordingly, separate consolidated financial statements of INDUS RT, LP have not been presented. Furthermore, as permitted under Rule 13-01(a)(4)(vi), the Company has excluded the summarized financial information for INDUS RT, LP as the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Company and INDUS RT, LP are not materially different than the corresponding amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements of the Company, and management believes such summarized financial information would be repetitive and not provide incremental value to investors.

Forward-Looking Information

The above information in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to the possibility of sales of real estate assets pursuant to certain option agreements; completion of sales of real estate assets under agreement, including the sale of the Office/Flex Portfolio and undeveloped land parcels; anticipated closing dates of such sales and the Company’s plans with regard to the foregoing properties; potential vacancies in the Company’s buildings; the acquisition and development of additional properties and/or undeveloped land parcels, including, without limitation in connection with potential joint ventures; construction of additional buildings, estimated construction costs and completion dates of buildings under construction and expected to be built; tenant improvements and infrastructure improvements; expectations regarding any potential issuance of securities under the Updated Universal Shelf; the Company’s anticipated future liquidity and capital expenditures; expectations regarding the Company’s REIT tax status; and expectations regarding the payment of dividends on Common Stock and other statements with the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects” or similar expressions. Although the Company believes that its plans, intentions and expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. The forward-looking statements made herein are based on assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by the Company as of the date hereof, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive and regulatory uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including those set forth in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 10-K for 2021.

ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Not applicable.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

INDUS maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to INDUS’ management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), INDUS carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of INDUS’ management, including INDUS’ Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of INDUS’ disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, INDUS’ Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.
