NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2026
Note 1 – Organization and Background
BRT Apartments Corp. (the "Company" or "BRT"), a Maryland corporation, owns and operates multifamily properties. These multifamily properties may be wholly owned by us or by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company contributed a portion of the equity.
At March 31, 2026, the Company: (i) wholly-owns 21 multifamily properties located in 11 states with an aggregate of 5,420 units and a carrying value of $589,947,000 ; (ii) has ownership interests, through unconsolidated entities, in ten multifamily properties located in four states with an aggregate of 2,891 units and the carrying value of its net equity investment is $44,765,000 ; (iii) has investments in joint ventures that own two multifamily properties which investments are treated for financial statement purposes as loans (the "Preferred Equity Investments") with a carrying value of $17,738,000 ; and (iv) owns other assets, through consolidated and unconsolidated subsidiaries, with a carrying value of $1,541,000 . The 31 multifamily properties are located in 11 states; most of these properties are located in the Southeast United States and Texas.
The Company conducts its operations to qualify as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for federal income tax purposes.
Note 2 – Basis of Preparation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Other than its Preferred Equity Investments, the Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting. For each venture, the Company evaluated the rights provided to each party in the venture to assess the consolidation of the venture. All investments in unconsolidated joint ventures have sufficient equity at risk to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support and, as a group, the holders of the equity at risk have power through voting rights to direct the activities of these ventures. As a result, none of these joint ventures are variable interest entities ("VIEs"). Additionally, as determined in accordance with GAAP, the Company does not exercise substantial operating control over these entities, and therefore the entities are not consolidated. These investments are recorded initially at cost, as investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and subsequently adjusted for their share of equity in earnings, cash contributions and distributions. The distributions to each joint venture partner are determined pursuant to the applicable operating agreement and may not be pro-rata to the percentage equity interest each partner has in the applicable venture.
The joint ventures in which the Company has the Preferred Equity Investments were determined to be VIE's, as it has been determined that the equity holders lack the ability to direct the activities of the legal entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance. It was determined that the Company is not the primary beneficiary as the Company does not have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's performance, and therefore these entities are not consolidated. In accordance with GAAP, these investments are treated as loans. These investments are unsecured and are subordinate, including the payment of the returns thereon, to the mortgage debt encumbering the applicable property.
The joint venture that owns a property in Yonkers, New York, was determined not to be a VIE but is consolidated because the Company has controlling rights in such entity.
8
Note 2 – Basis of Preparation (continued)
The Company reviews each real estate asset owned, including those held through investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, for impairment when there is an event or a change in circumstances indicating that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company measures and records impairment charges, and reduces the carrying value of owned properties, when indicators of impairment are present and the expected undiscounted cash flows related to those properties are less than their carrying amounts. For its unconsolidated joint venture investments, the Company measures and records impairment losses, and reduces the carrying value of the equity investment when indicators of impairment are present and the expected discounted cash flows related to the investment is less than the carrying value. When the Company does not expect to recover its carrying value on properties held for use, the Company reduces its carrying value to fair value, and for properties held for sale, the Company reduces its carrying value to the fair value less costs to sell. When the Company does not expect to recover its carrying value on unconsolidated joint ventures that are under contract for sale, the Company, when it is determined that the sale is probable, reduces its carrying value to its fair value.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Substantially all of the Company’s real estate assets, at acquisition, are comprised of real estate owned that is leased to tenants on a short-term basis. Therefore, the Company aggregates real estate assets for reporting purposes and operates in one
The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is its Chief Executive Officer. As the Company operates in one

Dividend Reinvestment Plan
The Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “DRP”), among other things, provides stockholders with the opportunity to reinvest all or a portion of their cash dividends paid on the Company’s common stock in additional shares of its common stock, at a discount, determined in the Company’s sole discretion, of up to 5 % from the market price for the common stock (as such price is calculated pursuant to the DRP). The discount from the market price is currently 3 %. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, 68,481 shares were issued in lieu of cash dividends of $976,000 . During the three months ended March 31, 2025, 46,450 shares were issued in lieu of cash dividends of $808,000 .
Stock Based Compensation
In June 2024, the Company's stockholders approved the 2024 Incentive Plan (the "2024 Plan"). This plan permits the Company to grant: (i) stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSU's"), performance shares awards and any one
or more of the foregoing, for up to a maximum of 1,000,000 shares; and (ii) cash settled dividend equivalent rights in tandem with the grant of restricted stock units and certain performance based awards. As of March 31, 2026, 312,486 shares are available for issuance pursuant to awards under the 2024 Plan. Awards to acquire 1,429,465 shares of common stock are outstanding under the 2024 Plan, the 2022 Incentive Plan (the "2022 Plan"), and the 2020 Amended and Restated Incentive Plan (the "2020 Plan"; and together with the 2022 Plan, the "Prior Plans"). No further awards may be granted pursuant to the Prior Plans.
Restricted Stock Units
As of March 31, 2026, an aggregate of 550,238 of unvested RSU's are outstanding pursuant to the 2024 Plan and the Prior Plans. Generally, the RSUs entitle the recipients, subject to continued service through the three-year vesting period to receive (i) the underlying shares if and to the extent certain performance and/or market conditions are satisfied at the vesting date, and (ii) an amount equal to the cash dividends that would have been paid during the three-year performance period with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the RSUs if, when, and to the extent, the related RSUs vest. The shares underlying the RSUs are not participating securities but are contingently issuable shares.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded $134,000 and $293,000 of compensation expense related to the amortization of unearned compensation with respect to the RSUs. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $1,056,000 and $1,321,000 of compensation expense, respectively, has been deferred and will be charged to expense over the remaining vesting periods. The weighted average remaining vesting period of these restricted stock units is approximately 1.3 years.
Restricted Stock
In January 2026 and 2025, the Company granted 148,673 and 165,408 shares, pursuant to the 2024 Plan. As of March 31, 2026, an aggregate of 879,227 shares of unvested restricted stock are outstanding pursuant to the 2024 Plan and Prior Plans. The shares of restricted stock vest five years from the date of grant and under specified circumstances, including a change in control, may vest earlier. For financial statement purposes, the restricted stock is not included in the outstanding shares shown on the consolidated balance sheets until they vest, but is included in the earnings per share computation.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded $788,000 and $849,000 , respectively, of compensation expense related to the amortization of unearned compensation with respect to the restricted stock awards. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $6,883,000 and $5,480,000 , respectively has been deferred as unearned compensation and will be charged to expense over the remaining vesting periods of these restricted stock awards. The weighted average remaining vesting period of these restricted stock awards is 2.4 years.

Note 3 – Equity (continued)
Per Share Data
Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net income applicable to common stockholders for the applicable period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during such period. Net income is also allocated to the unvested restricted stock outstanding during each period, as the restricted stock is entitled to receive dividends and is therefore considered a participating security. The RSUs are excluded from the basic earnings per share calculation as they are not participating securities.
Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into shares of common stock or resulted in the issuance of shares of common stock that share in the earnings of the Company. Diluted earnings per share is determined by dividing net income applicable to common stockholders for the applicable period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock deemed to be outstanding during such period.
In calculating diluted earnings per share, the Company includes only those shares underlying the RSUs that it anticipates will vest based on management's estimates as of the end of the most recent quarter. The Company excludes any shares underlying the RSUs from such calculation if their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of earnings per share calculations (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts:

Note 4 – Leases
Lessor Accounting
The Company owns a commercial property leased to two retail tenants under operating leases expiring from 2028 to 2035, with tenant options to extend or terminate the leases. Revenues from such leases are reported as rental income, net, and are comprised of (i) lease components, which includes fixed lease payments and (ii) non-lease components, which includes reimbursements of property level operating expenses. The Company does not separate non-lease components from the related
lease components, as the timing and pattern of transfer are the same, and accounts for the combined component in accordance with ASC 842.
Rental revenue from multifamily properties is recorded when due from residents and is recognized monthly as it is earned. Lease concessions are generally reported on a straight line basis over the lease term. Leases on residential properties are generally for terms that do not exceed one year .
11
Note 4 – Leases (continued)
Lessee Accounting
The Company is a lessee under a ground lease in Yonkers, NY which is classified as an operating lease. The ground lease expires on June 30, 2045. There are no renewal options. As of March 31, 2026, the remaining lease term is 19.3 years.
The Company is a lessee under a corporate office lease in Great Neck, New York, which is classified as an operating lease. The lease expires on December 31, 2031 and provides a five-year renewal option. As of March 31, 2026, the remaining lease term, including renewal options deemed exercised, is 10.8 years.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company's Right of Use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities were $1,790,000 and $1,977,000 , respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the Company's ROU assets and lease liabilities were $1,832,000 and $2,015,000 , respectively.
The discount rate applied to measure each ROU asset and lease liability is based on the Company’s Incremental Borrowing Rate (“IBR”). The Company considers the general economic environment and its historical borrowing rate activity and factors in various financing and asset specific adjustments to ensure the IBR is appropriate to the intended use of the underlying lease. As the Company did not elect to apply the hindsight practical expedient, lease term assumptions determined under ASC 840 were carried forward and applied in calculating the lease liabilities recorded under ASC 842. The Company’s ground lease offers a renewal option which it assesses against relevant economic factors to determine whether it is reasonably certain of exercising or not exercising the option. Lease payments associated with renewal periods that the Company is reasonably certain will be exercised, if any, are included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset.

Note 6 – Loans
The Company made Preferred Equity Investments in two separate joint ventures which in turn acquired multifamily properties in the locations identified below. In accordance with GAAP, these investments are treated as loans. These investments are unsecured and are subordinate, including the payment of the returns thereon, to the mortgage debt encumbering the property acquired by the applicable joint venture. Information as to these investments at March 31, 2026 is summarized below (dollars and thousands):

These investments provide for the Company to receive the following: (1) an (a) Annual Return (as set forth in the table above) compounded monthly, of which the Current Return (as set forth in the table above) is payable monthly to the extent of available cash flow, and (b) a Hurdle Return to be paid monthly from remaining cash flow if any, pari passu or after the sponsor's receipt of its management fees and specified returns on its investment and (2) the total amount invested by the Company, including any unpaid portion of the Current Return and the Hurdle Return, prior to any payments to the sponsor, upon the earlier to occur of certain events (e.g., sale of the property or the refinancing of the mortgage underlying the property) and the redemption date specified above. The Current Return is recorded as interest income when it is due from the sponsor and the Hurdle Return is recognized as interest income when it is received. Deferred loan fees are capitalized and recorded into income over the life of the investment. The Company's exposure to loss is limited to its original Invested Amount (as set forth in the table above).

During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded $328,000 and $309,000 respectively, of interest income, representing the full amount of the Current Return (including loan fee amortization of $15,000 and $16,000 , respectively), payable with respect to these loans. As of March 31, 2026, these loans were current in their payment of the Current Return.
Note 7 – Allowance for Credit Loss
The Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL") reserve required under ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326)” (“ASU 2016-13”) reflects the Company's estimate as of the balance sheet date of potential credit losses related to its loan portfolio. Changes to the CECL reserve are recognized through a provision for or reversal of current expected credit loss reserve on the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The reserve is based on relevant information about past events, including historical loss experience, current loan portfolio, market conditions and reasonable and supportable macroeconomic forecasts for the duration of each loan. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis of the receivables.
The Company considers key credit quality indicators in underwriting loans and estimating credit losses, including: the capitalization of borrowers and sponsors; the expertise of the sponsors in a particular real estate sector and geographic market; collateral type; geographic region; use and occupancy of the property; property market value; loan amount and lien position; industry risk rating for the same and similar loans; and prior experience with the sponsor. Such analyses are completed and reviewed by asset management personnel and evaluated by senior management on a quarterly basis, utilizing various data sources. Ultimate repayment of the loans referenced in note 6 is sensitive to interest rate changes, general economic conditions, liquidity, existence of an active sales market for properties, and availability of replacement financing.
Adjustments to the allowance are recorded on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations as "Provision for credit loss". If the Company determines that a loan or a portion of the loan is uncollectible, it will write off the uncollectible

Mortgages Payable
At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the weighted average interest rate on the Company's mortgage payables was 4.22 6.1 years and 6.4 years, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, interest expense, which includes amortization of deferred financing costs, was $5,336,000 and $4,991,000 , respectively.
Credit Facility
The Company's credit facility with an affiliate of Valley National Bank ("VNB"), allows the Company to borrow, subject to compliance with borrowing base requirements and other conditions, up to $40,000,000 . The facility can be used to facilitate the acquisition of multifamily properties, repay mortgage debt secured by multifamily properties and for operating expenses (i.e., working capital (including dividend payments)); provided that no more than $25,000,000 may be used for operating expenses. The facility is secured by the cash available at VNB and the Company's pledge of the interests in the entities that own the properties, and matures in September 2027.
The interest rate on the credit facility, which adjusts monthly and is subject to a floor of 6.0 %, equals one-month term plus 250 basis points. The interest rate in effect as of March 31, 2026 is 6.18 %. There is an unused facility fee of 0.25 % per annum on the total amount committed by VNB and unused by the Company. At March 31, 2026, the Company is in compliance in all material respects with its obligations under the facility.
At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was no outstanding balance, respectively, on the facility. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, which includes amortization of deferred financing costs and unused fees, was $59,000 and $59,000 , respectively. The remaining deferred financing costs of $202,000 and $236,000 are recorded as Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Junior Subordinated Notes
At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding principal balance of the Company's junior subordinated notes was $37,400,000 212,000 and $217,000 , respectively. The interest rate on outstanding balance resets quarterly and is equal to three month term + 2.26 %. The interest rate in effect at March 31, 2026 and 2025 was 5.94 % and 6.55 %, respectively.

Note 12 – Fair Value Measurements
The Company estimates the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the framework established in fair value accounting guidance. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The hierarchy described below prioritizes inputs to the valuation techniques used in measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities. This hierarchy maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring the most observable inputs to be used when available. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows:
• Level 1— inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets and liabilities in active markets
• Level 2— inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
• Level 3— inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to fair value.
Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets:
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable (included in other assets), accounts payable and accrued liabilities: The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for these instruments approximate their fair value due to the short term nature of these accounts.
Loan Receivables: At March 31, 2026, the estimated fair value of the loan receivables is greater than their carrying value by approximately $66,000 , based on market interest rates ranging from 6.04 % to 6.25 %. At December 31, 2025, the estimated
17
Note 12 – Fair Value Measurements (continued)
fair value of the Company's loan receivables, equaled their carrying value due to their proximity to origination. The Company values its loan receivables using a discounted cash flow analysis of the expected cash flow of each instrument.
Junior subordinated notes: At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the estimated fair value of the notes is lower than their carrying value by approximately $6,871,000 and $3,897,000 , respectively, based on a market interest rate of 8.76 % and 7.60 %, respectively. The Company values its junior subordinated notes using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each instrument.
Mortgages payable: At March 31, 2026, the estimated fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable is lower than their carrying value by approximately $23,792,000 , assuming market interest rates between 5.03 % and 5.61 %. At December 31, 2025, the estimated fair value of the Company's mortgages payable was lower than their carrying value by approximately $21,107,000 , assuming market interest rates between 4.79 % and 5.44 %. Market interest rates were determined using rates which the Company believes reflects institutional lender yield requirements at the balance sheet dates. The Company values its mortgages payable using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each instrument.
Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies
Note 14 – New Accounting Pronouncement
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024–03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220–40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU aims to enhance financial reporting transparency by requiring disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities ("PBEs"). The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income
statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories within the footnotes to the financial statements.
ASU No. 2024–03 is applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026. The Company is evaluating the new guidance to determine impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Overview
We own and operate multifamily properties. These properties may be wholly owned by us or by unconsolidated joint ventures in which we contributed a portion of the equity. At March 31, 2026, we: (i) wholly-own 21 multifamily properties with an aggregate of 5,420 units and a carrying value of $589.9 million; (ii) have ownership interests, through unconsolidated entities, in ten multifamily properties with 2,891 units and a carrying value of $44.8 million; (iii) have preferred equity interests in two multifamily properties with a carrying value of $17.7 million; and (iii) own other assets, through consolidated and unconsolidated subsidiaries, with a carrying value of $1.5 million. The 31 multifamily properties are located in 11 states; most of these properties are located in the Southeast United States and Texas.
Challenges and Uncertainties
We face challenges due to the uncertain national economic environment (e.g., the possibility of inflation, recession and/or stagflation, the potential impact of tariffs and trade wars, and/or volatile interest rates), and the oversupply of multifamily properties in several markets in which we compete (including Atlanta, GA, Huntsville, AL, Dallas, TX, San Antonio, TX, Nashville TN, Pensacola, FL, LaGrange, GA and San Marcos, TX). In addition, we use concessions (and in particular, in markets that are especially competitive) as a means to improve occupancy. The use of concessions reduces our rental income and may add to the variability of our operating results. These challenges and uncertainties have, and we anticipate may continue to adversely impact (i) the rental and occupancy rates at our properties, and (ii) our ability to grow rental income and/or control our real estate operating expenses, some of which, such as real estate taxes, we have a very limited ability to control and frequently increase, with limited notice of the increase.
We anticipate that our mortgage interest expense will increase as we refinance the aggregate $88.6 million and $65.9 million of principal balances of mortgage debt maturing in 2026 and 2027, respectively (including $61.0 million and $23.1 million of such principal balances at unconsolidated subsidiaries maturing in 2026 and 2027, respectively) because current comparable mortgage interest rates are generally higher than the weighted average interest rate on such maturing mortgages (i.e, the weighted average interest rate on the mortgages on our consolidated and unconsolidated properties maturing through December 31, 2027 is 4.40%) and the weighted average interest rate on the mortgage refinancing we completed in mid-December was 4.95%.

Results of Operations
Three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to three months ended March 31, 2025.
As used herein, the term "same store properties" refers to multifamily properties that were wholly owned for the entirety of the periods presented. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, all of our multifamily properties in our consolidated portfolio are same store properties.

Rental and other revenue from real estate properties
The increase is due primarily to improvements in rental (which include the effect of straight line rent adjustments related to rent concessions) and occupancy rates. Approximately $349,000 of the improvement pertains to Bells Bluff.

Real estate operating expense
The change is due primarily to decreases of $162,000 of payroll costs across the portfolio and $109,000 of insurance expenses due to lower premium rates. The decrease was offset by an increase of $182,000 of expense primarily due to remediating damage from casualty events at River Place and Bells Bluff.
We believe that real estate operating expense will increase in 2026 due to, among other things, anticipated increases in payroll expense and that due to, among other things, the conflict in Iran, utility expense.
Interest expense
The change is due primarily to the additional $357,000 mortgage interest expense related to the refinancing of the River Place, Boerne and Civic 1 mortgages in December 2025 which added $29 million to our debt and at a higher interest rate (a weighted average interest rate of 4.95%) than the debt that was paid off.
21
General and administrative
Contributing to the change were decreases of (i) $220,000 of non-cash amortization expense associated with equity awards (including $94,000 related to the forfeiture of our former Chief Financial Officer's restricted stock units upon his retirement in February 2026), and (ii) $95,000 in professional fees associated with non-recurring out-of-scope audit procedures expensed in March 31, 2025.
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures
Equity in earnings from unconsolidated joint ventures decreased to a loss of $308,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from earnings of $413,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Approximately $675,000 of the change is due to our share of operating losses at properties acquired subsequent to the quarter ended March 31, 2025, (i.e., 1322 North and Oaks at Victory). For the three month period ended March 31, 2026, the operating loss included $557,000 in non-cash amortization of lease intangibles acquired in such purchases. We anticipate that $262,000 and $121,000 of the non-cash expense associated with the amortization of these lease intangibles will be incurred for the three month periods ending June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2026, respectively, at which point such intangibles will be fully amortized.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We require funds to pay operating expenses and debt service obligations, acquire and/or invest in properties (including alternative investments), make capital and other improvements, fund capital contributions, pay dividends and continue to repurchase our common stock. Generally, our primary sources of capital and liquidity are the operations of our multifamily properties (including distributions and/or income from the preferred equity investments and the operations of the unconsolidated multifamily properties), mortgage debt financings and re-financings (including proceeds (in excess of refinanced amounts), from the refinancing of properties that appreciated in value since the original financing), property sales, the issuance of shares of our common stock pursuant to our at-the-market distribution and dividend reinvestment programs, borrowings from our credit facility and our available cash. At May 1, 2026, our available liquidity was approximately $61.8 million, including $21.8 million of cash and cash equivalents and $40 million available under our credit facility.
We anticipate that from April 1, 2026 through December 31, 2028, our operating expenses, $88.4 million of mortgage amortization and interest expense (including $29.7 million from unconsolidated joint ventures), $88.6 million, $65.9 million and $104.6 million of balloon payments with respect to mortgages maturing in 2026, 2027 and 2028, respectively (including $61.0 million, $23.1 million and $66.6 million maturing in 2026, 2027 and 2028, respectively, from unconsolidated joint ventures), interest expense on our junior subordinated notes, estimated cash dividend payments of at least $52.2 million (assuming (i) the current quarterly dividend rate of $0.25 per share and (ii) 19.0 million shares outstanding), will be funded in part from cash generated from operations (including distributions from unconsolidated joint ventures). Our operating cash flow and available cash is insufficient to fully fund the $259.1 million (including $150.7 million at unconsolidated joint ventures) of balloon payments due through 2028, and if we are unable to refinance such debt on acceptable terms, we may need to issue additional equity or dispose of properties, in each case on potentially unfavorable terms.
Our ability to acquire or invest in additional multifamily property opportunities and implement value-add projects is limited by our available cash and our ability to (i) draw on our credit facility, (ii) obtain, on acceptable terms, mortgage debt from lenders, (iii) obtain proceeds from the sale and/or refinancing of properties that have appreciated in value, and (iv) raise capital from the sale of our common stock.
At March 31, 2026, we had mortgage debt of $762.4 million (including $287.6 million of mortgage debt at of our unconsolidated subsidiaries). The mortgage debt at our: (i) consolidated properties had a weighted average interest rate of 4.22% and a weighted average remaining term to maturity of approximately 6.1 years, and (ii) at our unconsolidated subsidiaries had a weighted average interest rate of 4.19% and a remaining term to maturity of approximately 3.1 years.
Junior Subordinated Notes
As of March 31, 2026, $37.4 million (excluding deferred costs of $212,000) in principal amount of our junior subordinated notes is outstanding. These notes mature in April 2036, contain limited covenants (including covenants prohibiting us from paying dividends or repurchasing capital stock if there is an event of default (as defined therein) on these notes), are redeemable at our option and bear an interest rate, which resets and is payable quarterly, at a rate of three-month term SOFR plus 250 basis points. At March 31, 2026 and 2025, the interest rate on these notes was 5.94% and 6.55%, respectively.
22
Credit Facility
Our credit facility with VNB New York, LLC, an affiliate of Valley National Bank (collectively, "VNB"), allows us to borrow, subject to compliance with borrowing base requirements and other conditions, up to $40 million, (i) for the acquisition of, and investment in, multifamily properties, (ii) to repay mortgage debt secured by multifamily properties and (iii) for Operating Expenses (i.e., working capital (including dividend payments) and operating expenses); provided, that not more than $25 million may be used for Operating Expenses. The credit facility is secured by cash accounts maintained by us at VNB (and we are required to maintain substantially all of our bank accounts at VNB), and the pledge of our interests in the entities that own the unencumbered multifamily properties used in calculating the borrowing base. The credit facility bears an annual interest rate, which resets monthly, equal to one-month term SOFR plus 250 basis points, with a floor of 6.00%. There is an annual fee of 0.25% on the total amount committed by VNB and unused by us. The credit facility matures in September 2027. Net proceeds received from the sale, financing or refinancing of our properties are generally required to be used to repay amounts outstanding on the facility. The interest rate in effect at March 31, 2026 and April 30, 2026, was 6.18% and 6.16% respectively. As of April 30, 2026, there was no outstanding balance on the credit facility and $40 million is available to be borrowed thereunder.
The terms of the credit facility include certain restrictions and covenants which, among other things, limit the incurrence of liens, require that we maintain and include in the collateral securing the facility at least two unencumbered properties with an aggregate value (as calculated pursuant to the facility) of at least $50 million, and require compliance with financial ratios relating to, among other things, maintaining a minimum tangible net worth of $140 million, the minimum amount of debt service coverage with respect to the properties (and amounts drawn on the credit facility) used in calculating the borrowing base. Net proceeds received from the sale, financing or refinancing of wholly-owned properties are generally required to be used to repay amounts outstanding under the credit facility. At March 31, 2026, we were in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of the facility.
Other Financing Sources and Arrangements
At March 31, 2026, we are joint venture partners in unconsolidated joint ventures which own ten multifamily properties and the distributions to us from these joint venture properties of $1.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 contributed to our liquidity and cash flow. Further, we may be required to make significant capital contributions with respect to these properties. At March 31, 2026, our investments in these joint venture properties had a net-equity carrying value of $44.8 million. The underlying properties are subject to mortgage debt, which is not reflected on our consolidated balance sheet, of $287.6 million. Although BRT Apartments Corp. is not the obligor with respect to such mortgage debt, the loss of any of these properties due to mortgage foreclosure or similar proceedings would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. See note 9 to our consolidated financial statements.
At March 31, 2026, we had preferred equity investments in two multifamily properties and during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, we generated $313,000 of loan interest income from these investments. At March 31, 2026, these investments had a carrying value of $17.7 million, are unsecured and are structurally subordinate to (including the payment of the returns thereon), an aggregate of $50.9 million of mortgage debt (which is not reflected on our consolidated balance sheet) bearing a weighted average interest rate of 4.81% and a weighted average remaining term to maturity of 4.6 years. Although we are not the obligor with respect to such mortgage debt, the loss of any of these investments due to mortgage foreclosure or similar proceedings would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. See note 6 to our consolidated financial statements.
Cash Distribution Policy
We have elected to be treated as a REIT under the Code. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute to our stockholders within the time frames prescribed by the Code at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income. Management currently intends to maintain our REIT status. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate Federal income tax on taxable income we distribute to stockholders in accordance with the Code. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to Federal income taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent tax years. Even if we qualify for Federal taxation as a REIT, we are subject to certain state and local taxes on our income and to Federal income and excise taxes on undistributed taxable income (i.e., taxable income not distributed in the amounts and in the time frames prescribed by the Code).
23
On April 6, 2026, we paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share to holders of record of our common stock as of the close of business on March 27, 2026.
We carefully monitor our discretionary spending. Our largest recurring discretionary expenditure has been our quarterly dividend (which was $0.25 per share of common stock, or approximately $4.7 million, with respect to the dividend paid in April 2026) and repurchases of our common stock. With respect to our dividend payments, our board of directors, on a quarterly basis, evaluates the timing and amount of our dividend based on its assessment of, among other things, our short and long term cash and liquidity requirements, prospects, debt maturities, projections of our REIT taxable income, net income, funds from operations, and adjusted funds from operations. With respect to our stock repurchases, management evaluates the appropriateness of such repurchases in light of, among other things, available alternative investments, and our capital and liquidity requirements (near and long term).
Application of Critical Accounting Estimates
A complete discussion of our critical accounting estimates is included in our Annual Report. There have been no changes in such estimates.
24
Funds from Operations, Adjusted Funds from Operations and Net Operating Income
We disclose below funds from operations (“FFO”), adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) and net operating income ("NOI") because we believe that such metrics are a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT.
We compute 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 GAAP), 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 funds from operations on the same basis. In computing FFO, we do not add back to net income the amortization of costs in connection with our financing activities or depreciation of non-real estate assets.
We compute AFFO by adjusting FFO for the loss of extinguishment of debt, our straight-line rent and rental concession accruals, restricted stock and RSU compensation expense, fair value adjustment of mortgage debt, gain on insurance recovery, insurance recovery from casualty loss and deferred mortgage and debt costs (including, in each case as applicable, from our share from our unconsolidated joint ventures). Since the NAREIT White Paper only provides guidelines for computing FFO, the computation of AFFO may vary from one REIT to another.
We believe 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 carrying value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. In fact, real estate values have historically risen and fallen with market conditions. As a result, we believe 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. We also consider FFO and AFFO to be useful to us in evaluating potential property acquisitions.
FFO and AFFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO should not be considered to be an alternative to net income as a reliable measure of our operating performance; nor should FFO and AFFO be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities (as defined by GAAP) as measures of liquidity. FFO and AFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including principal amortization and capital improvements. FFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by GAAP.
Management recognizes that there are limitations in the use of FFO and AFFO. In evaluating our performance, management is careful to examine GAAP measures such as net income and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities.

FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased from the corresponding quarter in the prior year primarily due to (i) an improvement in operating margins (including an increase in rental revenues and a decrease in operating expenses), (ii) the effect of changes in straight-line rent adjustments related to concessions, and (iii) decrease in expenses relating to equity awards. The increase was offset primarily by an increase in interest expense. See "Results of Operations - Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 compared to three months ended March 31, 2025" for a discussion of these changes.
27
Net Operating Income, or NOI, is a non-GAAP measure of performance. NOI is used by our management and many investors to evaluate and compare the performance of our properties to other comparable properties, to determine trends at our properties and to determine the estimated fair value of our properties. The usefulness of NOI may be limited in that it does not take into account, among other things, general and administrative expense, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, casualty losses, insurance recoveries and gains or losses as determined by GAAP. NOI is a property specific performance metric and does not measure our performance as a whole.
NOI is defined as "Rental and other revenue from real estate properties" less "Real estate operating expenses" in each case as presented on our statements of operations. Real estate operating expenses include real estate taxes, insurance, property management expense, utilities, repairs and maintenance, administrative and marketing. Other REIT’s may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REIT’s. We believe NOI provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income (loss). NOI is one of the measures we use to evaluate our performance because it (i) measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items unrelated to property operating performance and (ii) captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net income attributable to common stockholders as computed in accordance with GAAP to NOI of our consolidated properties for the periods presented (dollars in thousands):

| Same store Net Operating Income | $ | 13,394 | $ | 12,747 | $ | 647 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, NOI increased from the corresponding period in 2025 primarily due to a $579,000 increase in rental revenue. See "Results of Operations - Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 Compared to the Three Months ended March 31, 2025" for a discussion of these changes.
28
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks
Substantially all of our mortgage debt bears interest at fixed rates. Our junior subordinated notes bear interest at the rate of three month term SOFR plus 226 basis points. At March 31, 2026, the interest rate on these notes was 5.94%. Our credit facility bears interest at the rate of one month term SOFR plus 250 basis points and has a minimum interest rate of 6.00%. At March 31, 2026, the interest rate on the credit facility was 6.18%. A 100 basis point increase in interest rates would increase our related interest expense on our junior subordinated notes by approximately $374,000 annually and a 100 basis point decrease in the rates would decrease our related interest expense by $374,000 annually. A 100 basis point increase in interest rates would not increase our related interest expense on our credit facility due to the lack of borrowings during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As required under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2026. Based upon that evaluation, these officers concluded that as of March 31, 2026 our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(1) In March 2026, the Board of Directors replenished the value of the shares we are able to repurchase pursuant to the program to $10 million of shares (a replenishment of $4.96 million of shares), and extended such program through December 31, 2028. We are authorized to repurchase shares in open market or privately negotiated transactions (including related party transactions).
__________________________
From April 1, 2026 through April 15, 2026, we repurchased 142,445 shares of our common stock at an average price of $13.98 per share for an aggregate cost of $1.99 million. After giving effect to such repurchases, approximately $6.6 million of shares of common stock are available to be repurchased under the share repurchase program. We anticipate continuing to repurchase shares of our common stock.
