Financial and Operating Results

Today, WHLR reported its financial and operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

2020 THIRD QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

(all comparisons to the same prior year period unless otherwise noted)

FINANCIAL

•Net loss attributable to WHLR's common stock, $0.01 par value per share ("Common Stock") shareholders of $2.2 million, or ($0.22) per share, as compared to $4.6 million, or ($0.48) per share.

•Funds from operations ("FFO") of $1.5 million, or $0.15 per share of the Company's Common Stock and common unit ("Common Unit") in our operating partnership, Wheeler REIT, L.P., as compared to FFO of $1.1 million, or $0.11 per share.

•Adjusted Funds from Operations ("AFFO") of $0.13 per share of the Company's Common Stock and Common Unit in our operating partnership, Wheeler REIT, L.P., as compared to $0.11 per share.

OPERATIONS

•Total revenue from continuing operations decreased by 3.86% or $601 thousand.

•Signed 18 new leases totaling 93,253 square feet with a weighted-average rental rate of $8.58 per square foot.

•Executed 54 lease renewals totaling 370,500 square feet at a weighted-average increase of $0.37 per square foot, representing an increase of 3.98% over in-place rental rates.

•Collected 95% of contractual base rent and tenant reimbursements billed for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Collections of second quarter billings increased from 83%, as previously reported, to 95% collected as of November 5, 2020.

•Total operating expenses from continuing operations decreased by 14.16% or $1.7 million primarily a result of decreases in impairments, depreciation and amortization, and a 19.94% decrease in corporate general and administrative expenses largely driven by a decrease in legal fees.

SAME STORE

•Same store Net Operating Income ("NOI") decreased by 3.92% and by 5.18% on a cash basis. Same store results were impacted by a 3.15% decrease in revenue due to 1) a vacant anchor space on which the backfill rent will not commence until fourth quarter 2020 and 2) an increase in the credit loss on operating receivables driven by higher accounts receivable due to impacts of COVID-19 on the portfolio. These negative impacts were partially offset by increases in straight-line rental revenues resulting from long-term lease extensions. Additionally, same store property expenses decreased by 1.51% driven by decreases in common area maintenance, partially offset by increases in insurance and real estate taxes.

CAPITAL MARKETS

•On July 21, 2020, the Company and KeyBank entered into a Third Amendment to the KeyBank Credit Agreement (the "Third Amendment"). The Third Amendment, among other provisions, reduces the pledge of additional collateral by two properties and extends the maturity to December 31, 2020.

•On September 4, 2020, the Company executed Loan Modification Agreements on three properties whereby the Company was able to use restricted cash to fund debt service for 90 days, representing a total of $488 thousand to be replenished over the subsequent twelve-month period.

•Loans payable were reduced by $3.0 million through monthly principal payments and use of $566 thousand in restricted cash reserves.

•Wheeler REIT, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") purchased 71,343 shares of the Series D Preferred Stock on September 22, 2020 at $15.50 per share from an unaffiliated investor. These shares are deemed to be retired on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

•At September 30, 2020, assets held for sale included Columbia Fire Station, Riversedge North, Berkley Shopping Center, a .75 acre land parcel at Berkley and two outparcels at Rivergate Shopping Center, as the Company has committed to a plan to sell each property.

Same store results were impacted by a 1.75% decrease in revenue due to 1) a vacant anchor space on which the backfill rent will not commence until fourth quarter 2020 and 2) an increase in the credit loss on operating receivables driven by higher accounts receivable due to impacts of COVID-19 on the portfolio. These negative impacts were partially offset by increases in straight-line rental revenues resulting from long-term lease extensions.

◦$5.8 million from refinancing Shoppes at Myrtle Park;

◦$3.5 million in monthly scheduled principal payments;

COVID-19 UPDATE

WHLR continues to proactively reach out and communicate with its tenants to assist them during this difficult time. The Company continues to prioritize tenants’ requests based on the immediate and long-term impact to their businesses by evaluating all requests for rent relief on an individual basis and considering a number of factors. Not all tenant requests will ultimately result in modification agreements, nor is the Company forgoing its contractual rights under its lease agreements.

•All retail shopping centers are open and operating and feature necessity-based tenants, with 45 of the 60 properties anchored by grocery and/or drug stores.

•The Company agreed to lease modifications with five tenants who declared bankruptcy, resulting in a weighted average rate increase of 2.69% and 2.3 year weighted average extension term. Seven tenants vacated due to bankruptcy and two of the vacated tenants have been backfilled.

•Beginning in April 2020, the Company received certain rent relief requests, most often in the form of rent deferral requests. As a result, the Company granted 145 concessions as of October 30, 2020 and modified 68 leases at a weighted average rate increase of 3.72% and 3.1 year weighted average extension term.

•The Company has received payment of 95% of contractual base rent and tenant reimbursements billed for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Collections of second quarter billings increased from 83%, as previously reported, to 95% collected as of November 5, 2020.

•Accounts receivable related to short term deferral of rents increased $34 thousand compared to June 30, 2020 to $389 thousand or less than 1% of annual base rent ("ABR").

(1)    Reflects leases executed through October 5, 2020 that commence subsequent to the end of current period.

(2)    Annualized based rent per occupied square foot, assumes base rent as of the end of the current reporting period, excludes the impact of tenant concessions and rent abatements.

(3)    We own the Amscot building, but we do not own the land underneath the buildings and instead lease the land pursuant to ground leases. As discussed in the financial statements, these ground leases require us to make annual rental payments and contain escalation clauses and renewal options.

(4)    This information is not available because the property is undeveloped.

(5)    This property is our corporate headquarters that we 100% occupy.

Definitions

Funds from Operations (FFO): an alternative measure of a REIT's operating performance, specifically as it relates to results of operations and liquidity. FFO is a measurement that is not in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Wheeler computes FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of NAREIT in its March 1995 White Paper (as amended in November 1999 and December 2018). As defined by NAREIT, FFO represents net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of loan origination costs), plus impairment of real estate related long-lived assets and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

Most industry analysts and equity REITs, including Wheeler, consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance because, by excluding gains or losses on dispositions and excluding depreciation, FFO is a helpful tool that can assist in the comparison of the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods, or as compared to different companies. Management uses FFO as a supplemental measure to conduct and evaluate the business because there are certain limitations associated with using GAAP net income alone as the primary measure of our operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, while historically real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions.

Adjusted FFO (AFFO): Management believes that the computation of FFO in accordance with NAREIT’s definition includes certain items that are not indicative of the operating performance of the Company’s real estate assets. These items include, but are not limited to, non-recurring expenses, legal settlements, acquisition costs and capital raise costs. Management uses AFFO, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, to exclude such items. Management believes that reporting AFFO in addition to FFO is a useful supplemental measure for the investment community to use when evaluating the operating performance of the Company on a comparative basis. The Company also presents Pro Forma AFFO which shows the impact of certain activities assuming they occurred at the beginning of the year.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA): another widely-recognized non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes, when considered with financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, is useful to investors and lenders in understanding financial performance and providing a relevant basis for comparison among other companies, including REITs. While EBITDA should not be considered as a substitute for net income attributable to the Company’s common shareholders, net operating income, cash flow from operating activities, or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP, the Company believes that EBITDA may provide additional information with respect to the Company’s performance or ability to meet its future debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. The Company computes EBITDA by excluding interest expense, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests, depreciation and amortization and impairment of long-lived assets and notes receivable, from income from continuing operations. The Company also presents Adjusted EBITDA which excludes affecting the comparability of the periods presented, including but not limited to, costs associated with acquisitions and capital related activities.

WHLR Financial & Operating Data as of 9/30/2020 unless otherwise stated 21

Net Operating Income (NOI): The Company believes that NOI is a useful measure of the Company's property operating performance. The Company defines NOI as property revenues (rental and other revenues) less property and related expenses (property operation and maintenance and real estate taxes). Because NOI excludes general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income, provision for income taxes, gain or loss on sale or capital expenditures and leasing costs, it provides a performance measure, that when compared year over year, reflects the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating commercial real estate properties and the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. The Company uses NOI to evaluate its operating performance since NOI allows the Company to evaluate the impact of factors, such as occupancy levels, lease structure, lease rates and tenant base, have on the Company's results, margins and returns. NOI should not be viewed as a measure of the Company's overall financial performance since it does not reflect general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, impairment of impairment of long-lived assets, involuntary conversion, interest expense, interest income, provision for income taxes, gain or loss on sale or disposition of assets, and the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company's properties. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, the Company's NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
