Forward Looking Statements
Certain of the matters discussed in this Current Report on Form 8-K constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, both as amended by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding the intent, belief or expectations of the Company and can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “will be,” “goals,” “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “opportunities,” “possibility,” “strategy,” “maintain” or the negative version of these words and other comparable terms. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: the future financial performance of the Company, the expected timing and outcome of the proposed spin-off of certain of the Company’s office properties, if it occurs at all; the timing or amount of borrowings under the financing arrangements contemplated by the spin-off, if any, the fees and expenses related thereto, and the reimbursement of such fees and expenses relating thereto; and the anticipated office sale program. These statements are based on the current expectations of the Company’s management, and it is important to note that the Company’s actual results could be materially different from those projected in such forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable risks or uncertainties, like the risks related to inflation and increased interest rates, the effects of pandemics and global outbreaks of contagious diseases (such as the COVID-19 pandemic) and domestic or geopolitical crises, such as terrorism, military conflict (including the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the global response to it), war or the perception that hostilities may be imminent, political instability or civil unrest, or other conflict, and those additional risk factors discussed in reports that the Company has filed with the SEC, could also have material adverse effects on the Company’s future results, performance or achievements. Discussions of some of these other important factors and assumptions are contained in the Company’s filings with the SEC and are available at the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov, including Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as well as the risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Form 10.

Exhibit 99.1
| Investing for the Long Run®<br>Investor Presentation<br>September 2023<br>Strategic Plan to<br>Exit Office |
|---|
| 2<br>Overview<br>Strategic Plan<br> – Accelerated exit of office (the “Transaction”) by:<br>(i) Spinning-off the majority of WPC’s office portfolio into a publicly-traded REIT, Net Lease Office Properties (NYSE: NLOP) (the “Spin-Off”)<br>(ii) Selling office assets remaining on WPC’s balance sheet (the “Office Sale Program”)<br>4<br>Spin-Off<br> – NLOP expected to be comprised of 59 net leased office properties, with ABR of ~$141 million, almost all of which are located in the U.S.<br> – Net lease portfolio with favorable weighting to investment grade-rated tenants, built-in rent growth and staggered lease maturities<br> – Business plan focused on maximizing value for shareholders through strategic asset management and disposition of properties over time with<br>proceeds from operating cash flow and sales used to repay debt and pay distributions to its shareholders<br> – Capitalized with approximately $169 million of existing mortgage debt outstanding and a new $455 million debt financing package, with<br>approximately $350 million of net proceeds from the new financing to be transferred to WPC<br> – Externally managed by WPC given its in-depth knowledge of the assets, desire to maintain efficiency and timeline of NLOP’s business plan<br>Office Sale Program<br> – Office Sale Program is expected to be mostly complete by the end of 2023 with Spanish government sale expected in January 2024<br> • Spanish government office portfolio consisting of 70 properties with a total ABR of ~$32 million and located in Spain<br> • Additional 17 office properties, with ABR of ~$45 million, comprised primarily of single-tenant properties in Europe excluded from the Spin-Off (1)<br>Go Forward WPC<br> – Portfolio comprised primarily of industrial / warehouse, essential retail and self-storage assets with 11+ year WALT and favorable rent increases<br> – Reset dividend policy, targeting a pro forma AFFO payout ratio of approximately 70% to 75%<br> – Generate approximately $735 million from NLOP transfer and equity forward settlement used to repay debt and to fund new investments<br> – Updated 2023 AFFO guidance to be between $5.18 and $5.26 for both Total Company AFFO per share and Real Estate AFFO per share<br> – Transaction maintains leverage targets and incrementally improves liquidity and overall credit profile<br>Timing<br> – Spin-Off does not require shareholder approval and is expected to close on or around November 1, 2023, subject to closing conditions<br>Note: portfolio information reflects pro rata ownership of real estate assets (excluding operating properties) as of June 30, 2023.<br>(1) Includes second largest office asset, which served as the headquarters for the largest provider of digital pay television in Spain, that was sold In July 2023. ABR and pro rata debt outstanding at the time of disposition were $9 million and $46<br>million, respectively. |
| --- |
| 3<br>Strategic Rationale<br> Clear path to monetizing WPC’s legacy office portfolio<br> – Transaction accelerates WPC’s office exit strategy, aligning WPC’s portfolio with its investment focus on growing its core net lease portfolio<br> Enhances WPC’s growth profile through improved cost of capital<br> – Transaction is expected to broaden WPC’s appeal to debt and equity investors and serve as a catalyst to drive a re-rating of WPC<br> – Post-Transaction portfolio expected to comprise higher-quality assets commanding an improved portfolio valuation and higher multiple<br> – Lower cost of capital widens WPC’s investment spreads and enhances its overall earnings growth profile<br> – Furthers WPC’s ability to drive sector-leading same-store rent growth through a combination of CPI and fixed rent escalators<br> Increases the quality and stability of WPC’s earnings and cash flows through better end-of-lease outcomes<br> – Post-Transaction WPC benefits from higher overall releasing spreads, reduced downtimes and carrying costs and lower capex requirements<br> Improves portfolio quality and key metrics post-separation<br> – Vast majority of remaining net lease portfolio to comprise industrial / warehouse, essential retail and self-storage assets<br> – Increases overall real estate quality, criticality, and WALT of the portfolio with all other metrics largely in line with pre-Transaction levels<br> Maintains strong, scalable investment grade balance sheet<br> – No material change to balance sheet and WPC will remain a top 25 REIT in the RMZ index<br> – A credit positive with BBB+ (stable) and Baa1 (stable) unsecured credit ratings expected to remain unchanged<br> – Leverage to remain within WPC’s target range of mid-to-high 5s net debt to EBITDA<br> Uniquely positioned to successfully manage NLOP’s disposition plan<br> – WPC originated and has managed office since inception and has a deep understanding of the assets and markets |

| 20<br>Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements<br>Overview<br>Additional information regarding NLOP and the proposed Spin-Off can be found in the preliminary Registration Statement on Form 10 filed by NLOP<br>with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 21, 2023 (as may be amended, the “Form 10”).<br>Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements<br>Certain of the matters discussed in this communication constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 (as<br>amended, the “Securities Act”) and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act”), both as amended by the Private<br>Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding the intent, belief or<br>expectations of the Company and can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likel<br>y<br>result,” “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate” “opportunities,” “possibility,” “strategy,” “maintain” or the negative version of<br>these words and other comparable terms. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that are not historical facts.<br>These statements are based on the current expectations of our management, and it is important to note that our actual results could be materially<br>different from those projected in such forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to<br>differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable risks or uncertainties, like the risks related to inflation and<br>increased interest rates, the effects of pandemics and global outbreaks of contagious diseases (such as the COVID-19 pandemic) and domestic or<br>geopolitical crises, such as terrorism, military conflict (including the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the global response to it), war<br>or the perception that hostilities may be imminent, political instability or civil unrest, or other conflict, and those additional risk factors discussed in<br>reports that we have filed with the SEC, could also have material adverse effects on our future results, performance or achievements. Discussions<br>of some of these other important factors and assumptions are contained in W. P. Carey’s filings with the SEC and are available at the SEC’s website<br>at http://www.sec.gov, including Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in W. P. Carey’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,<br>2022 as well as the risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Form 10. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these<br>forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this communication, unless noted otherwise. Except as required under the federal<br>securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC, W. P. Carey does not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to the<br>forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this communication or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated<br>events.<br>All data presented herein is as of June 30, 2023 unless otherwise noted.<br>Amounts may not sum to totals due to rounding.<br>Past performance does not guarantee future results. |

| 21<br>Disclosures<br>The following non-GAAP financial measures are used in this presentation<br>FFO and AFFO<br>Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP<br>measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure, when used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in<br>accordance with GAAP, to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental non-GAAP<br>measure. FFO is not equivalent to, nor a substitute for, net income or loss as determined under GAAP.<br>We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as<br>restated in December 2018. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of<br>property, impairment charges on real estate, gains or losses on changes in control of interests in real estate and depreciation and amortization from real estate<br>assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned<br>investments are calculated to reflect FFO.<br>We also modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to adjust GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as amortization of real estate-related intangibles,<br>deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rent and related reserves, other non-cash rent adjustments, non-cash allowance for credit losses on direct<br>financing leases and other assets, stock-based compensation, non-cash environmental accretion expense and amortization of deferred financing costs. Our<br>assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but<br>have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude non-core income and expenses, such as gains or losses from extinguishment of debt and merger and<br>acquisition expenses. We also exclude realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign currency exchange transactions (other than those realized on the settlement<br>of foreign currency derivatives), which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating<br>performance. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as AFFO. We exclude these items from GAAP net income to arrive at AFFO as they are not the primary<br>drivers in our decision-making process and excluding these items provides investors a view of our portfolio performance over time and makes it more comparable<br>to other REITs that are currently not engaged in acquisitions, mergers and restructuring, which are not part of our normal business operations. AFFO also reflects<br>adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. We use AFFO as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate<br>corporate goals, evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies and determine executive compensation.<br>We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider as we believe it will help them to better assess the sustainability of our operating<br>performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For<br>example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the<br>properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating<br>performance. We do not use our FFO and AFFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net income computed under GAAP, or as<br>alternatives to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP, or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs. |

| 22<br>Disclosures (cont.)<br>The following non-GAAP financial measures are used in this presentation<br>EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA<br>We believe that EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts for assessing the performance of our business segments because (i) it removes<br>the impact of our capital structure from our operating results and (ii) it is helpful when comparing our operating performance to that of companies in our industry<br>without regard to such items, which can vary substantially from company to company. Adjusted EBITDA as disclosed represents EBITDA, modified to include other<br>adjustments to GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as impairments, non-cash rent adjustments and unrealized gains and losses from our hedging<br>activity. Additionally, we exclude gains and losses on sale of real estate, which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plans and do not affect<br>our overall long-term operating performance. We exclude these items from adjusted EBITDA as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process.<br>Adjusted EBITDA reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term<br>sustainability and not on such non-cash and noncore items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. We believe<br>that adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts, although it does not represent net income that is computed in accordance with<br>GAAP. Accordingly, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or as an indicator of our financial performance. EBITDA and adjusted<br>EBITDA as calculated by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.<br>Other Metrics<br>Pro Rata Metrics<br>This presentation contains certain metrics prepared on a pro rata basis. We refer to these metrics as pro rata metrics. We have a number of investments, usually<br>with our affiliates, in which our economic ownership is less than 100%. On a full consolidation basis, we report 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses<br>of those investments that are deemed to be under our control or for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary, even if our ownership is less than 100%.<br>Also, for all other jointly owned investments, which we do not control, we report our net investment and our net income or loss from that investment. On a pro rata<br>basis, we generally present our proportionate share, based on our economic ownership of these jointly owned investments, of the assets, liabilities, revenues and<br>expenses of those investments. Multiplying each of our jointly owned investments’ financial statement line items by our percentage ownership and adding or<br>subtracting those amounts from our totals, as applicable, may not accurately depict the legal and economic implications of holding an ownership interest of less<br>than 100% in our jointly owned investments.<br>ABR<br>ABR represents contractual minimum annualized base rent for our net-leased properties and reflects exchange rates as June 30, 2023. If there is a rent abatement,<br>we annualize the first monthly contractual base rent following the free rent period. ABR is not applicable to operating properties and is presented on a pro rata<br>basis. |
