    • Capital Recycling - During the first quarter of 2025, the Company made considerable progress towards its goal of reducing its theatre and education investments with the sale of three theatre properties and 11 early childhood education centers, as well as the prepayment in full on two mortgage note receivables, secured by two early childhood education centers. Total disposition proceeds were $78.9 million, and the Company recognized a net gain on sale of $9.4 million.
    • Strong Liquidity Position - As of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash on hand of $20.6 million and $105.0 million outstanding on its $1.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility. Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company fully repaid $300.0 million in senior unsecured notes due April 1, 2025 using borrowings under its credit facility. There are no other debt maturities in 2025.
    • Increase in Monthly Dividend - As previously announced, the Company increased its monthly dividend by 3.5% to $0.295 per share starting with the dividend paid on April 15, 2025 to common shareholders of record as of March 31, 2025.
    • Increases 2025 Earnings Guidance - The Company is increasing FFOAA per diluted common share guidance for 2025 to a range of $5.00 to $5.16 from a range of $4.94 to $5.14, representing an increase of 4.3% at the midpoint over 2024. The Company is also confirming investment spending guidance for 2025 of $200.0 million to $300.0 million and increasing disposition proceeds guidance to a range of $80.0 million to $120.0 million from a range of $25.0 million to $75.0 million.

    "We are pleased to have delivered solid earnings growth in the first quarter and increase our guidance for the full year," stated Company Chairman and CEO Greg Silvers. "We continue to see resilience at our experiential properties, as many consumers prioritize drive-to value oriented experiences, particularly in times of uncertainty. We also continue to make meaningful progress in our ongoing recycling strategy, as we recycle theatre and education assets and accretively redeploy capital into our target experiential sectors. With healthy rent coverage and a prudently positioned balance sheet, we remain encouraged by our outlook and growth opportunities."

    Investment Update

    The Company's investment spending during the three months ended March 31, 2025 totaled $37.7 million and included $14.3 million for the acquisition of an attraction property in New Jersey. Investment spending for the quarter was primarily related to experiential build-to-suit development and redevelopment projects.

    Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company acquired land for $1.2 million and provided mortgage financing of $5.9 million secured by the improvements of a fitness & wellness property in Georgia and closed on land for a new build-to-suit eat & play property in Virginia for $1.6 million with a total expected cost of approximately $19.0 million at completion in 2026. Inclusive of the Virginia build-to-suit project, the Company has committed approximately $148.0 million in additional spending for experiential development and redevelopment projects, which is expected to be funded over the next two years. The Company will continue to be more selective in making investments, utilizing cash on hand, excess cash flow, disposition proceeds and borrowings under our line of credit, until such time as the Company's cost of capital improves.

    Capital Recycling

    During the first quarter of 2025, the Company made considerable progress towards its goal of reducing its theatre and education investments with the sale of one vacant theatre property, two operating theatre properties, one vacant early childhood education center and 10 leased early childhood education centers for net proceeds totaling $70.8 million and recognized a net gain of $9.4 million.

The Company intends to recycle these proceeds into other experiential assets.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    Funds From Operations (FFO), Funds From Operations As Adjusted (FFOAA) and Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO)

    The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) developed FFO as a relative non-GAAP financial measure of performance of an equity REIT in order to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP. Pursuant to the definition of FFO by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, the Company calculates FFO as net income available to common shareholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains and losses from disposition of real estate and impairment losses on real estate, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other affiliates. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other affiliates are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. The Company has calculated FFO for all periods presented in accordance with this definition.

    In addition to FFO, the Company presents FFOAA and AFFO. FFOAA is presented by adding to FFO retirement and severance expense, transaction costs, provision (benefit) for credit losses, net, costs associated with loan refinancing or payoff, preferred share redemption costs and impairment of operating lease right-of-use assets and subtracting sale participation income, gain on insurance recovery and deferred income tax (benefit) expense. AFFO is presented by adding to FFOAA non-real estate depreciation and amortization, deferred financing fees amortization and share-based compensation expense to management and Trustees; and subtracting amortization of above and below market leases, net and tenant allowances, maintenance capital expenditures (including second generation tenant improvements and leasing commissions), straight-lined rental revenue (removing the impact of straight-lined ground sublease expense), the non-cash portion of mortgage and other financing income and the allocated share of joint venture non-cash items.

    FFO, FFOAA and AFFO are widely used measures of the operating performance of real estate companies and are provided here as supplemental measures to GAAP net income available to common shareholders and earnings per share, and management provides FFO, FFOAA and AFFO herein because it believes this information is useful to investors in this regard. FFO, FFOAA and AFFO are non-GAAP financial measures. FFO, FFOAA and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP and are not indicative that cash flows are adequate to fund all cash needs and are not to be considered alternatives to net income or any other GAAP measure as a measurement of the results of our operations or our cash flows or liquidity as defined by GAAP. It should also be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO, FFOAA and AFFO the same way so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful.

    The following table summarizes FFO, FFOAA and AFFO including per share amounts for FFO and FFOAA, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 and reconciles such measures to net income available to common shareholders, the most directly comparable GAAP measure:

    The conversion of the 5.75% Series C cumulative convertible preferred shares and the 9.00% Series E cumulative convertible preferred shares would be dilutive to FFO, FFOAA and AFFO per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Therefore, the additional common shares that would result from the conversion and the corresponding add-back of the preferred dividends declared on those shares are included in the calculation of diluted FFO, FFOAA and AFFO per share for those periods.

    Net Debt

    Net Debt represents debt (reported in accordance with GAAP) adjusted to exclude deferred financing costs, net and reduced for cash and cash equivalents. By excluding deferred financing costs, net, and reducing debt for cash and cash equivalents on hand, the result provides an estimate of the contractual amount of borrowed capital to be repaid, net of cash available to repay it. The Company believes this calculation constitutes a beneficial supplemental non-GAAP financial disclosure to investors in understanding our financial condition. The Company's method of calculating Net Debt may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

    Gross Assets

    Gross Assets represents total assets (reported in accordance with GAAP) adjusted to exclude accumulated depreciation and reduced by cash and cash equivalents. By excluding accumulated depreciation and reducing cash and cash equivalents, the result provides an estimate of the investment made by the Company. The Company believes that investors commonly use versions of this calculation in a similar manner. The Company's method of calculating Gross Assets may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

    Net Debt to Gross Assets Ratio

    Net Debt to Gross Assets Ratio is a supplemental measure derived from non-GAAP financial measures that the Company uses to evaluate capital structure and the magnitude of debt to gross assets. The Company believes that investors commonly use versions of this ratio in a similar manner. The Company's method of calculating the Net Debt to Gross Assets Ratio may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

    EBITDAre

    NAREIT developed EBITDAre as a relative non-GAAP financial measure of REITs, independent of a company's capital structure, to provide a uniform basis to measure the enterprise value of a company. Pursuant to the definition of EBITDAre by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, the Company calculates EBITDAre as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding interest expense (net), income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from dispositions of real estate, impairment losses on real estate, costs associated with loan refinancing or payoff and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other affiliates.

    Management provides EBITDAre herein because it believes this information is useful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. The Company's method of calculating EBITDAre may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. EBITDAre is not a measure of performance under GAAP, does not represent cash generated from operations as defined by GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. This measure should not be considered an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measure as a measurement of the results of the Company's operations or cash flows or liquidity as defined by GAAP.

    Adjusted EBITDAre

    Management uses Adjusted EBITDAre in its analysis of the performance of the business and operations of the Company. Management believes Adjusted EBITDAre is useful to investors because it excludes various items that management believes are not indicative of operating performance, and because it is an informative measure to use in computing various financial ratios to evaluate the Company. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAre as EBITDAre (defined above) for the quarter excluding sale participation income, gain on insurance recovery, retirement and severance expense, transaction costs, provision (benefit) for credit losses, net, impairment losses on operating lease right-of-use assets and prepayment fees.

    The Company's method of calculating Adjusted EBITDAre may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. Adjusted EBITDAre is not a measure of performance under GAAP, does not represent cash generated from operations as defined by GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. This measure should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measure as a measurement of the results of the Company's operations or cash flows or liquidity as defined by GAAP.

    Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre Ratio

    Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre Ratio is a supplemental measure derived from non-GAAP financial measures that the Company uses to evaluate our capital structure and the magnitude of our debt against our operating performance. The Company believes that investors commonly use versions of this ratio in a similar manner. In addition, financial institutions use versions of this ratio in connection with debt agreements to set pricing and covenant limitations. The Company's method of calculating the Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre Ratio may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

    Reconciliations of debt, total assets and net income (all reported in accordance with GAAP) to Net Debt, Gross Assets, Net Debt to Gross Assets Ratio, EBITDAre, Adjusted EBITDAre and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre Ratio (each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure), as applicable, are included in the following tables (unaudited, in thousands except ratios):

    Total Investments

    Total investments is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as the sum of the carrying values of real estate investments (before accumulated depreciation), land held for development, property under development, mortgage notes receivable and related accrued interest receivable, net, investment in joint ventures, intangible assets, gross (before accumulated amortization and included in other assets) and notes receivable and related accrued interest receivable, net (included in other assets). Total investments is a useful measure for management and investors as it illustrates across which asset categories the Company's funds have been invested. Our method of calculating total investments may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. A reconciliation of total assets (computed in accordance with GAAP) to total investments is included in the following table (unaudited, in thousands):
