Guidance and outlook

Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 4, 2026

• • how we expect to generate and obtain cash for short and long-term capital needs; and
• Construction contract activity is inherently subject to significant variability depending on the volume and nature of projects undertaken by us primarily on behalf of tenants.
• We expect to use our Revolving Development Facility to fund most of our property development cash requirements and subsequently pay it down as development properties are placed into service using cash available from operations, any excess available cash and cash equivalents, and borrowings from our Revolving Credit Facility.
• We expect to use our Revolving Credit Facility to initially fund most of the cash requirements from our other investing activities, including development cash requirements in excess of Revolving Development Facility available borrowings, as well as pay downs of the Revolving Development Facility discussed above and certain debt balloon payments due upon maturity; we expect to pay down this facility using cash…
• We aim to maintain an investment grade rating to enable us to use debt comprised of unsecured, primarily fixed-rate debt (including the effect of interest rate swaps) from public markets and banks.
• We expect to use cash flow from operations during the remainder of 2026 and annually thereafter for the foreseeable future to fund all of these cash requirements except for debt balloon payments due upon maturity and a portion of property development costs, the fundings for which are discussed below.
• During the remainder of 2026, we expect to spend $80 million to $90 million on costs for properties actively under development, most of which was contractually obligated as of September 30, 2026.
• During the remainder of 2026 and beyond, we expect to continue to actively develop additional properties and also could opportunistically acquire operating properties.
• We expect to fund these activities using, in part, available cash flow from operations, with the balance funded using any excess available cash and cash equivalents and borrowings under our Revolving Development Facility and Revolving Credit Facility.
• We provide disclosure in our consolidated financial statements on our future lessee obligations (expected to be funded primarily by cash flow from operations) in Note 5 and future debt obligations (expected to be funded by any remaining excess available cash and cash equivalents, refinanced by new debt borrowings, or funded by future equity issuances and/or sales of interests in properties) in Note 8.
