¹ A reconciliation of GAAP amounts to non-GAAP amounts (i.e., FFO and AFFO) is presented with the financial information included in this release.

Key Drivers of Operating Results:

Rental income increased year-over-year due primarily to the net impact of acquisitions and dispositions. Total operating expenses increased year-over-year primarily due to the net impact of acquisitions and dispositions. Gain on sale of real estate was $9.1 million. Non-cash impairment charge of $1.3 million was recognized in connection with the sale of a non-core asset in Beachwood, Ohio.

The change in FFO is due primarily to increases in interest and real estate operating expense due to net impact of acquisitions and dispositions, offset by an increase in rental income.

The increase in AFFO is due to the factors impacting the change in FFO, excluding non-cash items related to straight line rent and non-cash equity compensation awards.

Diluted per share net income, FFO and AFFO were impacted negatively in the quarter ended September 30, 2025 compared to the corresponding quarter in the prior year by an average increase of approximately 214,000 in the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding as a result of stock issuances in connection with the non-cash equity incentive and dividend reinvestment programs.

Balance Sheet:

The Company had $18.8 million of cash and cash equivalents, total assets of $802.3 million, total debt of $458.7 million, and total stockholders' equity of $305.6 million at quarter end.

At October 31, 2025, One Liberty’s available liquidity was approximately $109.4 million, including approximately $9.4 million of cash and cash equivalents (including the credit facility's required $3.0 million average deposit maintenance balance) and $100 million available under its credit facility.

Recent Transaction Activity:

In August, completed the previously disclosed acquisition of a 210,600 square foot, single-tenant industrial property located in Blythewood, South Carolina for $24.0 million, including new mortgage debt of $14.0 million bearing an interest rate of 5.77% (interest only through maturity) and maturing in 2030. The Company expects the quarterly rental income (excluding variable lease revenues), depreciation and amortization expense and mortgage interest expense from this property will be $405,000, $223,000 and $202,000, respectively.  

From July through September, sold four non-core assets for $16.3 million of net proceeds and an aggregate gain of $9.1 million.

In August, sold its two remaining unconsolidated joint venture properties in Savannah, Georgia for $4.6 million, net of closing costs. OLP’s 50% share of the gain and net proceeds from these sales were approximately $991,000 and $2.4 million, respectively.

In September, entered into an agreement to sell a non-core property located in Port Clinton, Ohio for $1.3 million.  It is anticipated that the transaction will close by year-end 2025, will generate net proceeds of approximately $500,000, and a gain of approximately $200,000.

In October, closed on the purchase of a 199,919 square foot, single-tenant industrial property located in Oakdale, Minnesota for $23.0 million. OLP obtained mortgage debt of $13.8 million, maturing in 2030 and bearing an interest rate of 5.10% (interest only until maturity). OLP estimates the annual base rent will be approximately $1.5 million (with annual base rent increases of 4.0%).

In November, OLP and its ground lease tenant sold the entire collective interest in The Vue Apartments, a multi-family property located in Beachwood, Ohio, for approximately $17.7 million of net proceeds, including $1.3 million to be received in connection with the settlement of a related litigation.

In October, entered into a contract to acquire a 397,440 square foot, six building, multi- tenant industrial property located in the Pittsburgh, PA. MSA, for $53.5 million. Simultaneously with the closing, OLP anticipates obtaining new mortgage debt of approximately $32.4 million, bearing an interest rate of 5.45% (interest only for five years) and maturing in 2032. OLP anticipates funding the balance of the purchase from available cash (including proceeds from property sales) and if needed, its line of credit. It is anticipated that the annual base rent will be approximately $3.4 million (with annual increases ranging from 2% to 3%) and with an expected closing by year end 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

One Liberty computes FFO in accordance with the “White Paper on Funds from Operations” issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and NAREIT’s related guidance. FFO is defined in the White Paper as net income (calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities where the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. In computing FFO, management does not add back to net income the amortization of costs in connection with its financing activities or depreciation of non-real estate assets.

One Liberty computes adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, by adjusting from FFO for its straight-line rent accruals and amortization of lease intangibles, deducting from income additional rent from ground lease tenant, income on settlement of litigation, income on insurance recoveries from casualties, lease termination and assignment fees, and adding back amortization of restricted stock and restricted stock unit compensation expense, amortization of costs in connection with our financing activities (including its share of its unconsolidated joint ventures), debt prepayment costs and amortization of lease incentives and mortgage intangible assets. Since the NAREIT White Paper does not provide guidelines for computing AFFO, the computation of AFFO may vary from one REIT to another.

One Liberty believes that FFO and AFFO are useful and standard supplemental measures of the operating performance for equity REITs and are used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating equity REITs, many of which present FFO and AFFO when reporting their operating results. FFO and AFFO are intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminish predictability over time. In fact, real estate values have historically risen and fallen with market conditions. As a result, management believes that FFO and AFFO provide a performance measure that when compared year-over-year, should reflect the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing a perspective that may not be necessarily apparent from net income. Management also considers FFO and AFFO to be useful in evaluating potential property acquisitions.

FFO and AFFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO should not be an alternative to net income as a reliable measure of our operating performance nor as an alternative to cash flows as measures of liquidity. FFO and AFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of the Company’s cash needs.

Operating Measure:

Annual base rent, or ABR, generally represents the base rent payable to OLP during the twelve months ending September 30, 2026 under leases in effect at September 30, 2025. See OLP’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2025 (the “Form 10-Q”) for further information on the calculation of ABR, which is referred to in the Form 10-Q as “2026 base rent.”
