These measures are used by management as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use these measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net earnings computed under GAAP, as indicators of our operating performance, as alternatives to cash from operating activities computed under GAAP or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs. The summary below describes the way we use these measures, provides information regarding why we believe these measures are meaningful supplemental measures of performance and reconciles these measures from net income or loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measures. FFO We compute FFO in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). FFO is defined as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, impairment losses of depreciable real estate assets, gains (losses) from sales of depreciable real estate assets and after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures. FFO is used to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other REITs, primarily because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains (losses) from real estate sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other REITs. It should be noted, however, that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do, making comparisons less meaningful. Core FFO We compute Core FFO by adjusting FFO, as defined by NAREIT, to exclude certain items such as gain or loss from the extinguishment of debt, goodwill impairment, unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments, employee separation expense, transaction expenses, lease termination fees, and other items not related to ongoing operating performance of our properties. We believe that Core FFO is a useful supplemental measure in addition to FFO because it excludes the effects of certain items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to our core business operations. As with FFO, our reported Core FFO may not be comparable to Core FFO as defined by other REITs. AFFO AFFO is presented in addition to Core FFO. AFFO further adjusts Core FFO for certain other non-cash items, including straight-line rent adjustment, amortization of share-based compensation, deferred rent – ground lease, non-cash amortization items (e.g., amortization of above- and below-market rent, net, debt premium and discount, net, ground lease interests, tax benefits and deferred financing costs) and other non-cash transactions. We believe AFFO provides a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance and is useful in comparing our operating performance with other REITs that may not be involved in similar transactions or activities. As with Core FFO, our reported AFFO may not be comparable to AFFO as defined by other REITs. Our calculation of FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO is presented in the following table for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts): Three Months Ended December 31, Year Ended December 31, Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO(1): 2025(1) 2024(1) 2025(1) 2024(1) Net income (loss) $ 3,748 $ 13,816 $ (332,633 ) $ (11,363 ) FFO Adjustments: Depreciation of building and improvements 8,499 17,699 54,699 64,191 Amortization of leasing costs and intangibles 4,855 8,225 27,989 31,179 Real estate impairment provision — 2,538 363,688 53,313 Gain from disposition of assets (9,015 ) (13,123 ) (38,878 ) (38,368 ) FFO 8,087 29,155 74,865 98,952 FFO attributable to common shareholders and noncontrolling interests(2) $ 8,087 $ 29,155 $ 74,865 $ 98,952 Core FFO Adjustments: Loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt 3,020 (10,973 ) 3,725 (10,466 ) Impairment provision, goodwill — 5,680 — 10,274 Unrealized (gain) loss on investments (7 ) 90 (115 ) (377 ) Employee separation expense — 299 36 358 Transaction expenses 121 243 555 821 Lease termination adjustments (45 ) 107 (287 ) 107 Other activities adjustment (74 ) 252 (172 ) 364 Core FFO attributable to common shareholders and noncontrolling interests(2) $ 11,102 $ 24,853 $ 78,607 $ 100,033 AFFO Adjustments: Straight-line rent adjustment (628 ) (2,010 ) (2,943 ) (6,852 ) Amortization of share-based compensation 1,596 2,059 6,380 7,896 Deferred rent - ground lease 427 423 1,705 1,661 Amortization of below market rent, net (2,468 ) (1,332 ) (9,900 ) (2,232 ) Amortization of debt (discount)/premium, net (73 ) (36 ) (490 ) 103 Amortization of ground leasehold interests — (98 ) (290 ) (389 ) Amortization of below tax benefits — 377 933 1,498 Amortization of deferred financing costs 1,286 1,206 4,966 4,757 Amortization of lease inducements — 127 — 127 AFFO attributable to common shareholders and noncontrolling interests(2) $ 11,242 $ 25,569 $ 78,968 $ 106,602 FFO per share/unit, basic and diluted $ 0.20 $ 0.74 $ 1.88 $ 2.50 Core FFO per share/unit, basic and diluted $ 0.28 $ 0.63 $ 1.98 $ 2.53 AFFO per share/unit, basic and diluted $ 0.28 $ 0.65 $ 1.99 $ 2.69 Weighted-average common shares outstanding - basic and diluted shares 36,870,738 36,444,348 36,798,234 36,375,053 Weighted-average OP Units outstanding(2) 2,890,256 3,164,838 2,944,479 3,202,727 Weighted-average common shares and OP Units outstanding - basic and diluted 39,760,994 39,609,186 39,742,713 39,577,780 (1) FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO include amounts related to both continuing operations and Office Discontinued Operations Properties for all periods presented.

PEAKSTONE REALTY TRUST Net Operating Income, including Cash and Same Store Cash NOI (Unaudited; in thousands) Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as net income or loss, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, excluding (to the extent applicable during the periods presented) general and administrative expenses, corporate operating expenses to related parties, impairment of real estate, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other income, net, gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt, gains or losses on sales of real estate, impairment of goodwill, investment income or loss, transaction expense and net income or loss from discontinued operations and equity in earnings of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures. NOI on a cash basis (“Cash NOI”) is NOI adjusted to exclude the effect of straight-line rent, amortization of acquired above- and below-market lease intangibles, deferred termination income, other deferred adjustments and amortization of other intangibles. Cash NOI for our Same Store portfolio (“Same Store Cash NOI”) is Cash NOI for properties held for the entirety of all periods presented, with adjustments for lease termination fees and rent abatements (to the extent applicable during the periods presented). We believe that NOI, Cash NOI and Same-Store Cash NOI are helpful to investors as additional measures of operating performance because we believe they help both investors and management to understand the core operations of our properties excluding corporate and financing-related costs and non-cash depreciation and amortization. NOI, Cash NOI and Same Store Cash NOI are unlevered operating performance metrics of our properties and allow for a useful comparison of the operating performance of individual assets or groups of assets. These measures thereby provide an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP income from operations or net income (loss). In addition, NOI, Cash NOI and Same Store Cash NOI are considered by many in the real estate industry to be useful starting points for determining the value of a real estate asset or group of assets. Because NOI, Cash NOI and Same Store Cash NOI exclude depreciation and amortization and capture neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and capitalized leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of NOI, Cash NOI and Same Store Cash NOI as measures of our performance is limited. Therefore, NOI, Cash NOI and Same Store Cash NOI should not be considered as alternatives to net income or loss, as computed in accordance with GAAP. NOI, Cash NOI and Same Store Cash NOI may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Our calculation of each of NOI, Cash NOI and Same Store Cash NOI is presented in the following table for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended December 31, Year Ended December 31, 2025 2024 2025 2024 Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Total NOI: Net income (loss) $ 3,748 $ 13,816 $ (332,633 ) $ (11,363 ) General and administrative expenses 9,796 9,055 34,918 36,973 Corporate operating expenses to related parties 144 141 570 617 Real estate impairment provision — 2,538 18,195 53,313 Depreciation and amortization 13,353 13,813 52,182 47,503 Interest expense 11,982 14,389 56,565 55,978 Other income, net (2,012 ) (1,677 ) (7,351 ) (14,479 ) Loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt 2,482 (10,973 ) 2,482 (10,466 ) Gain from disposition of assets — (13,123 ) (6,407 ) (38,368 ) Goodwill impairment — 5,680 — 10,274 Transaction expenses 121 243 555 821 Net (income) loss from discontinued operations (17,721 ) (9,495 ) 272,610 (38,028 ) Total NOI $ 21,893 $ 24,407 $ 91,686 $ 92,775 Cash NOI Adjustments Industrial Segment: Industrial NOI $ 21,893 $ 17,610 86,218 55,678 Straight-line rent (813 ) (1,577 ) (3,172 ) (4,931 ) Amortization of acquired lease intangibles (2,464 ) (1,170 ) (9,383 ) (1,455 ) Deferred termination income (5 ) 819 (783 ) 819 Other deferred adjustments 5 — 20 — Industrial Cash NOI 18,616 15,682 72,900 50,111 Office Segment: Office NOI — 4,514 5,468 18,262 Straight-line rent — 10 75 (176 ) Amortization of acquired lease intangibles — 8 (24 ) 32 Deferred termination income — 1,851 (652 ) 1,851 Other intangible amortization — — — — Office Cash NOI — 6,383 4,867 19,969 Other Segment: Other NOI — 2,283 — 18,835 Straight-line rent — 147 — 769 Amortization of acquired lease intangibles — (33 ) — (262 ) Other deferred adjustments — 2 — (40 ) Inducement Amortization — 127 — 127 Other Cash NOI — 2,526 — 19,429 Total Cash NOI $ 18,616 $ 24,591 $ 77,767 $ 89,509 Same Store Cash NOI Adjustments Industrial Cash NOI $ 18,616 $ 15,682 $ 72,900 $ 50,111 Adjustment for acquired properties (7,088 ) (4,105 ) (23,914 ) (4,105 ) Adjustment for disposed properties (62 ) (1,220 ) (3,535 ) (4,804 ) Rent abatements — 703 — 3,163 Industrial Same Store Cash NOI 11,466 11,060 45,451 44,365 Office Cash NOI — 6,383 4,867 19,969 Adjustment for disposed properties — (6,383 ) (4,867 ) (19,969 ) Office Same Store Cash NOI — — — — Other Cash NOI — 2,526 — 19,429 Adjustment for disposed properties — (2,399 ) — (19,302 ) Rent abatements — (127 ) — (127 ) Other Same Store Cash NOI — — — — Total Same Store Cash NOI $ 11,466 $ 11,060 $ 45,451 $ 44,365 PEAKSTONE REALTY TRUST EBITDA, EBITDAre, and Adjusted EBITDAre (Unaudited; in thousands) To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre , collectively, to help us evaluate our business. We use such non-GAAP financial measures to make strategic decisions, establish business plans and forecasts, identify trends affecting our business, and evaluate our operating performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because they allow for greater transparency into what measures we use in operating our business and measuring our performance and enable comparison of financial trends and results between periods where items may vary independent of business performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe excluding items that neither relate to the ordinary course of business nor reflect our underlying business performance or that other companies, including companies in our industry, frequently exclude from similar non-GAAP measures enables us and our investors to compare our underlying business performance from period to period. Accordingly, we believe these adjustments facilitate a useful evaluation of our current operating performance and comparison to our past operating performance and provide investors with additional means to evaluate cost and expense trends. In addition, we also believe these adjustments enhance comparability of our financial performance and are similar measures that are widely used by analysts and investors as a means of evaluating a company’s performance. There are a number of limitations related to our non-GAAP measures. Some of these limitations are that these measures, to the extent applicable, exclude: (i) historical or future cash requirements for maintenance capital expenditures or growth and expansion capital expenditures; (ii) depreciation and amortization, a non-cash expense, where the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future and these measures do not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements; (iii) interest expense, net, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our indebtedness, which reduces cash available to us; (iv) share-based compensation expense, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy; (v) provision for income taxes, which may represent a reduction in cash available to us; and (vi) certain other items that we believe are not indicative of the performance of our portfolio. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate these non-GAAP measures or similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our disclosure of non-GAAP measures as a tool for comparison. Because of these and other limitations, these non-GAAP measures should be considered along with other financial performance measures, including our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization. EBITDAre EBITDAre is defined by The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) as follows: (a) GAAP net income or loss, plus (b) interest expense, plus (c) income tax expense, plus (d) depreciation and amortization plus/minus (e) losses and gains on the disposition of depreciated properties, including losses/gains on change of control, plus (f) impairment write-downs of depreciated property and of investments in unconsolidated affiliates caused by a decrease in value of depreciated property in the affiliate, plus (g) adjustments to reflect the entity’s share of EBITDAre of consolidated affiliates. Adjusted EBITDAre Adjusted EBITDAre is defined as EBITDAre modified to exclude items such as acquisition-related expenses, employee separation expenses, share-based compensation expenses, and other items that we believe are not indicative of the performance of our portfolio. We also include an adjustment to reflect a full period of net operating income on the operating properties we acquire during the quarter and to remove net operating income on properties we dispose of during the quarter (in each case, as if such acquisition or disposition, as applicable, had occurred on the first day of the quarter). The adjustment for acquisitions is based on our estimate of the net operating income we would have received from such property if it had been owned for the full quarter; however, the net operating income we actually receive from such properties in future quarters may differ based on our experience operating such properties subsequent to closing of the acquisitions. We may also exclude the annualizing of other large transaction items such as termination income recognized during the quarter. Our calculation of EBITDA, EBITDAre, and Adjusted EBITDAre is presented in the following table for the three months ended December 31, 2025 (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended December 31, 2025 Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA, EBITDAre, and Adjusted EBITDAre(1): Net income $ 3,748 Interest expense 12,287 Depreciation and amortization 13,353 EBITDA 29,388 Real estate impairment provision (9,015 ) EBITDAre 20,373 Adjustment for acquisitions 509 Adjustment for dispositions (9,539 ) Share-based compensation expense 1,596 Loss on extinguishment of debt 3,020 Lease termination adjustment (45 ) Transaction expenses 121 Adjustment to exclude other activities 158 Adjusted EBITDAre $ 16,193 (1) EBITDA, EBITDAre, and Adjusted EBITDAre include amounts related to both continuing operations and Office Discontinued Operations Properties for all periods presented. PEAKSTONE REALTY TRUST NET INCOME (LOSS) FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS (Unaudited; in thousands) The following table summarizes net income (loss) from discontinued operations related to the Office Discontinued Operations Properties for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 : Three Months Ended December 31, Year Ended December 31, 2025 2024 2025 2024 Revenue Rental income $ 12,812 $ 28,147 $ 94,842 $ 111,716 Expenses Property operating expense 2,317 3,122 11,931 12,395 Property tax expense 867 1,990 6,331 7,745 Real estate impairment provision — 345,493 — Depreciation and amortization — 12,013 30,217 47,479 Total expenses 3,184 17,125 393,972 67,619 Other income (expenses): Interest expense (307 ) (1,527 ) (4,665 ) (6,072 ) Other (expense) income, net (77 ) — (43 ) 3 Loss on extinguishment of debt (538 ) — (1,243 ) — Income (loss) from discontinued operations 8,706 9,495 (305,081 ) 38,028 Gain from disposition of assets 9,015 — 32,471 — Net income (loss) from discontinued operations $ 17,721 $ 9,495 $ (272,610 ) $ 38,028 PEAKSTONE REALTY TRUST Appendix Annualized Base Rent, Net Debt, Occupancy, and WALT Definitions “Annualized Base Rent” or “ABR” is calculated as the monthly contractual base rent for leases that have commenced as of the end of the quarter, excluding rent abatements, multiplied by 12 months and deducting base year operating expenses for gross and modified leases, unless otherwise specified. For leases in effect at the end of any quarter that provide for rent abatement during the last month of that quarter, the Company used the monthly contractual base rent payable following expiration of the abatement period. “Net Debt” is total debt (excluding deferred financing costs and debt premiums/discounts) less cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash). “Occupancy" is the leased square footage or usable acres, as applicable, under leases that have commenced as of the end of the quarter. "Occupancy Percentage" is total applicable Occupancy divided by the total applicable leasable square footage or usable acres. "Operating Property" is any property not classified as a Redevelopment Property. "Operating Portfolio" refers to all Operating Properties. "Redevelopment Property" is a property where we intend to undertake “repositioning/redevelopment work” including (i) making capital improvements to enhance its functionality, (ii) removing existing structures, (iii) building a new facility from the ground up, and/or (iv) converting the property to a different use. A Redevelopment Property will be moved to the Operating Portfolio upon the earlier of (i) achieving 90% Occupancy of the intended use or (ii) 12 months after completion of the repositioning/redevelopment work. “Redevelopment Portfolio” refers to all Redevelopment Properties. “WALT” is the weighted average lease term in years (excluding unexercised renewal options and early termination rights) based on Annualized Base Rent.
