The Company’s 2026 guidance is subject to risks and uncertainties more fully described in this press release and in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
(1)
The Company does not provide guidance with respect to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure or provide reconciliations to GAAP from its forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure of AFFO per share guidance due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the effect, timing and significance of certain amounts in the reconciliation that would be required by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. Examples of these amounts include impairments of assets, gains and losses from sales of assets, and depreciation and amortization from new acquisitions or developments. In addition, certain non-recurring items may also significantly affect net income but are generally adjusted for in AFFO. Based on our historical experience, the dollar amounts of these items could be significant and could have a material impact on the Company’s GAAP results for the guidance period.
(2)
The Company's AFFO per share guidance utilizes the current forward SOFR curve to forecast interest expense related to any outstanding commercial paper notes and revolver borrowings during the year.
(3)
Adjusted revenue equates to “Total Revenues” as presented in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, excluding the amortization of above and below market lease intangibles.
(4)
Cash G&A expense is expected to be in a range of 3.7% to 4.0% of adjusted revenue. Cash G&A is defined as “General and administrative” expenses as presented in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, less stock-based compensation expense.
(5)
Represents the estimated dilutive impact of the Company’s outstanding forward equity calculated in accordance with the treasury stock method, which is included in the AFFO per share guidance range.

Glossary
AFFO Payout Ratio is calculated as common dividends per share divided by AFFO per share for the same period. The Company believes this measure is a useful supplemental indicator of dividend coverage and the sustainability of its dividend policy. This measure is not a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the Company’s calculation may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Annualized Base Rent (“ABR”) represents the annualized amount of contractual minimum rent required by tenant lease agreements as of June 30, 2026, computed on a straight-line basis. Annualized Base Rent is not, and is not intended to be, a presentation in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes annualized contractual minimum rent is useful to management, investors, and other interested parties in analyzing concentrations and leasing activity.
Enterprise Value is calculated as the sum of net debt, the liquidation value of the Company’s preferred stock, and the market value of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, assuming the conversion of Agree Limited Partnership common units into common stock.
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is calculated as Trailing Twelve Month (“TTM”) Fixed Charge EBITDA divided by TTM Fixed Charges. TTM Fixed Charge EBITDA represents TTM EBITDA adjusted for straight-line rent and capital expenditure adjustments, and TTM Fixed Charges consist of interest expense, preferred share dividend payments, and scheduled principal payments. The Company believes this measure is a useful supplemental indicator of its ability to service fixed financial obligations, though it is not a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Investment Grade (“IG”) refers to ABR derived from tenants, or parent or subsidiary entities thereof, that have an investment grade credit rating from S&P Global Ratings, Moody’s Investors Service, Fitch Ratings, or the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (“NAIC”).
Net Debt to Enterprise Value represents the ratio of the Company’s net debt to its Enterprise Value and is used to evaluate the Company’s capital structure and balance sheet leverage.
Occupancy equals the sum of leased square feet divided by gross leasable area. Excludes properties under redevelopment.
Weighted-Average Capitalization Rate for acquisitions and dispositions, it is defined as the sum of contractual fixed annual rents computed on a straight-line basis over the primary lease terms and anticipated annual net tenant recoveries, divided by the purchase and sale prices for occupied properties.
Weighted-Average Lease Term (“WALT”) represents the remaining contractual lease term of in‑place leases, weighted by ABR, and excludes vacant properties and lease extension options.
References to “Core FFO” and “AFFO” in this press release are representative of Core FFO attributable to OP common unitholders and AFFO attributable to OP common unitholders. Detailed calculations for these measures are shown in the Reconciliation of Net Income to FFO, Core FFO and Adjusted FFO table as “Core Funds From Operations – Operating Partnership Common Unitholders” and “Adjusted Funds from Operations – Operating Partnership Common Unitholders”.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Funds from Operations (“FFO” or “Nareit FFO”) FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“Nareit”) to mean net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate assets and/or changes in control, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and any impairment charges on depreciable real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, most real estate industry investors consider FFO to be helpful in evaluating a real estate company’s operations. FFO should not be considered an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of the Company’s operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Further, while the Company adheres to the Nareit definition of FFO, its presentation of FFO is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other REITs due to the fact that all REITs may not use the same definition.
Core Funds from Operations (“Core FFO”) The Company defines Core FFO as Nareit FFO with the addback of (i) noncash amortization of acquisition purchase price related to above- and below- market lease intangibles and discount on assumed debt and (ii) certain infrequently occurring items that reduce or increase net income in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that its measure of Core FFO facilitates useful comparison of performance to its peers who predominantly transact in sale-leaseback transactions and are thereby not required by GAAP to allocate purchase price to lease intangibles. Unlike many of its peers, the Company has acquired the substantial majority of its net-leased properties through acquisitions of properties from third parties or in connection with the acquisitions of ground leases from third parties. Core FFO should not be considered an alternative to net income as the primary indicator of the Company’s operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Further, the Company’s presentation of Core FFO is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other REITs due to the fact that all REITs may not use the same definition.
Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure of operating performance used by many companies in the REIT industry. AFFO further adjusts FFO and Core FFO for certain non-cash items that reduce or increase net income computed in accordance with GAAP. Management considers AFFO a useful supplemental measure of the Company’s performance, however, AFFO should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of its performance, or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions. The Company’s computation of AFFO may differ from the methodology for calculating AFFO used by other equity REITs, and therefore may not be comparable to such other REITs.

Financial Measures
Total Debt and Net Debt
The Company defines Total Debt as debt per the consolidated balance sheet excluding unamortized debt issuance costs, original issue discounts and debt discounts. Net Debt is defined as Total Debt less cash, cash equivalents and cash held in escrows. The Company considers the non-GAAP measures of Total Debt and Net Debt to be key supplemental measures of the Company's overall liquidity, capital structure and leverage because they provide industry analysts, lenders and investors useful information in understanding our financial condition. The Company's calculation of Total Debt and Net Debt may not be comparable to Total Debt and Net Debt reported by other REITs that interpret the definitions differently than the Company. The Company presents Net Debt on both an actual and proforma basis, assuming the net proceeds of the Forward Equity Offerings (see below) are used to pay down debt. The Company believes the proforma measure may be useful to investors in understanding the potential effect of the Forward Equity Offerings on the Company's capital structure, its future borrowing capacity, and its ability to service its debt.
Forward Equity Offerings
The Company has 14,484,843 shares remaining to be settled under the Forward Equity Offerings. Upon settlement, the offerings are anticipated to raise net proceeds of approximately $1.1 billion based on the applicable forward sale price as of June 30, 2026. The applicable forward sale price varies depending on the offering. The Company is contractually obligated to settle the offerings by certain dates between October 2026 and April 2028.
EBITDAre
EBITDAre is defined by Nareit to mean net income computed in accordance with GAAP, plus interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, any gains (or losses) from sales of real estate assets and/or changes in control, any impairment charges on depreciable real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company considers the non-GAAP measure of EBITDAre to be a key supplemental measure of the Company's performance and should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income or loss as a measure of the Company's operating performance. The Company considers EBITDAre a key supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance because it provides an additional supplemental measure of the Company's performance and operating cash flow that is widely known by industry analysts, lenders and investors. The Company’s calculation of EBITDAre may not be comparable to EBITDAre reported by other REITs that interpret the Nareit definition differently than the Company.
Recurring EBITDA
The Company defines Recurring EBITDA as EBITDAre with the addback of noncash amortization of above- and below- market lease intangibles, and after adjustments for the run-rate impact of the Company's investment and disposition activity for the period presented, as well as adjustments for non-recurring benefits or expenses. The Company considers the non-GAAP measure of Recurring EBITDA to be a key supplemental measure of the Company's performance and should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income or loss as a measure of the Company's operating performance. The Company considers Recurring EBITDA a key supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance because it represents the Company's earnings run rate for the period presented and because it is widely followed by industry analysts, lenders and investors. Our Recurring EBITDA may not be comparable to Recurring EBITDA reported by other companies that have a different interpretation of the definition of Recurring EBITDA. Our ratio of net debt to Recurring EBITDA is used by management as a measure of leverage and may be useful to investors in understanding the Company’s ability to service its debt, as well as assess the borrowing capacity of the Company. Our ratio of net debt to Recurring EBITDA is calculated by taking annualized Recurring EBITDA and dividing it by our net debt per the consolidated balance sheet.

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 842 “Leases” using the modified retrospective approach as of January 1, 2019. The Company adopted the practical expedient in FASB ASC 842 that alleviates the requirement to separately present lease and non-lease components of lease contracts. As a result, all income earned pursuant to tenant leases is reflected as one line, “Rental Income,” in the consolidated statement of operations. The purpose of this table is to provide additional supplementary detail of Rental Income.
