Guidance and outlook

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

• Our strategy continues to focus on reducing debt, transitioning to a company with the majority of our properties being service-focused retail net lease properties through the growth of our net lease portfolio and improving the performance of the hotels we expect to retain.
• As a REIT, we do not expect to pay federal income taxes on the majority of our income; however, the income realized by our TRSs in excess of the rent they pay to us is subject to U.S. federal income tax at corporate income tax rates.
• We currently expect to fund between approximately $25,000 and $40,000 during the last three months of 2026 for capital improvements to certain properties using cash on hand.
• This pending sale is subject to conditions; accordingly, we cannot be sure that we will complete this sale, that this sale will not be delayed or that the terms will not change.
• We expect to use the net sales proceeds from these sales for general business purposes, including to repay debt.
• We expect to pay this distribution on or about November 12, 2026 using cash on hand.
• There can be no assurance that we will be able to do so or the timing, size, or terms of any such replacement facility.
• We currently expect to use cash on hand, the cash flows from our operations, borrowings available under our revolving credit facility, net proceeds from any asset sales, net proceeds of offerings of equity or the incurrence of debt to fund our operations, capital expenditures, investments, future debt maturities, distributions to our shareholders and other general business purposes.
• When significant amounts are outstanding for an extended period of time under our revolving credit facility, or the maturities of our indebtedness approach, we currently expect to explore refinancing alternatives.
• We have an effective shelf registration statement that allows us to issue public securities on an expedited basis, but it does not assure that there will be buyers for such securities.
• While we believe we will generally have access to various types of financings, including debt or equity, to fund our future acquisitions and to pay our debts and other obligations, we cannot be sure that we will be able to complete any debt or equity offerings or other types of financings or that our cost of any future public or private financings will not increase.
• Our credit ratings depend upon evaluations by credit rating agencies of our business practices and plans, including our ability to maintain our earnings, to stagger our debt maturities and to balance our use of debt and equity capital so that our financial performance and leverage ratios afford us flexibility to withstand any reasonably anticipated adverse changes.
