1Q25 Financial and Operating Highlights

• Revenue increased 12.9% to $11.8 million in the first quarter of 2025. The $1.4 million of additional revenue was primarily due to the stabilization of a building in Peru during the first quarter, as well as the stabilization of three buildings in 2024, two in Peru and one in Costa Rica. In addition, the Company had a $0.2 million increase in revenue from positive rental rate growth related to higher rental rates upon lease rollovers or contractual rent increases on existing leases, along with other revenues increasing approximately $0.1 million. Partially offsetting the revenue increase was a $0.2 million decrease related to currency translation effects of leases denominated in Colombian pesos.

• Net Operating Income ("NOI") increased 6.0% to $9.4 million, primarily due to the above-mentioned building stabilizations and higher rental rates. Same-Property Cash NOI decreased 4.3% to $8.6 million during the period, primarily due to a rent reduction from the prepayment of a financed tenant improvement in Costa Rica and a one-time maintenance expense in Colombia. Additionally, property taxes in Peru increased following a municipal asset revaluation and one-time charges from the municipality.

• The occupancy rate of LPA's operating portfolio was 98.0% at the end of the first quarter, a 0.3 p.p. decrease from year-end 2024 and a 1.3 p.p. increase from first-quarter 2024. During the first quarter of 2025, LPA signed a USD-denominated lease for 63,109 square feet ("sq. ft.") of space in Building 100 in its Parque Logístico Callao facility in Lima, Peru with a leading third-party logistics provider, replacing a prior lease with this tenant. LPA also signed a new lease for 71,580 sq. ft. of Gross Leasable Area ("GLA") at Building 400 in Parque Logistico Lima Sur with a long-standing regional tenant which is one of the world's leading logistics providers.

• General and Administrative expenses increased 112.1% to $3.6 million in 1Q25, primarily due to a $0.8 million increase in other professional services expenses and to $0.3 million in amortization expenses related to Director and Officer liability insurance expenses that have been incurred since LPA's business combination and related listing on the NYSE American on March 28, 2024. In addition, the Company incurred $0.4 million in total share-based payment compensation in the form of Restricted Stock Units issued to executives in connection with the business combination, as well as $0.1 million of trustee and director fees. Also, an increase in employee headcount during the first quarter increased personnel costs by $0.1 million versus last year's comparable quarter.

• During 1Q25, LPA repurchased an additional $0.8 million of its ordinary shares, bringing the total amount of repurchased shares to $2.1 million under its $10 million share repurchase program, which will expire on November 20, 2025.

Subsequent Events

On April 30, 2025, LPA announced its plan to expand the Parque Logístico Callao property with the construction of Building 200, a new 227,172 sq. ft. facility that will increase the Company's footprint in Peru's underpenetrated logistics real estate market. At the time of the announcement, this facility was more than 70% pre-leased to existing LPA clients, including Peru's largest consumer products company, which will lease 101,557 sq. ft., and to the country's largest pharmacy chain, which pre-leased 61,074 sq. ft. Both pre-leases are denominated in U.S. dollars.

CEO Commentary

The growth momentum of our multinational, vertically integrated real estate platform accelerated in the first quarter, as demand for institutional quality, strategically located facilities like ours remained strong. The bulk of that demand came from LPA's large and diverse customer base, comprised of both regional and global leaders in consumer goods, third-party logistics and retail. We continue growing with our customers and deepening our relationships with them, as they further expand their operations in response to growing domestic consumption in LPA's foundational markets: Costa Rica, Colombia and Peru.

During the quarter, one of those customers, a leading global logistics company, signed an additional lease with us that brought LPA's operating GLA to a fully leased status, a significant milestone. The following month we also announced that we will increase the space of our other Peruvian park, Parque Logístico Callao, with the addition of a 227,172 sq. ft. building. Reflecting the scarcity of premium facilities like ours in key urban markets like Lima, this facility was more than 70% pre-leased. Securing land in such a strategic location represents a high barrier to entry typical of the markets where we have chosen to operate, due to the prevalence of highly fragmented land ownership, which our Company is uniquely able to capitalize on. The concessionaire of this land sought a strategic partner in the region with LPA's unique characteristics: a recognized institutional-level player with a strong, long-standing track record of developing and operating world-class logistics parks.

Some of LPA's clients are also expanding in Mexico, and our deep relationships will enable us to grow with them in this market as well. Although there is considerable uncertainty surrounding nearshoring in Mexico currently, domestic consumption remains resilient and robust, driving demand for premium facilities that are strategically located in the country's key sub-markets. Mexico lengthens LPA's growth runway substantially, complementing the robust development opportunities we are seeing in our foundational markets. We will continue to work with local partners that have deep and extensive relationships in this far larger market, as well as complementary local market knowledge and on-the-ground expertise. We will also remain highly selective when investing, as we are when choosing our tenants.

Our vision and ambition to substantially expand and scale LPA's unique real estate platform are backed by our team's extensive industry and market experience, a robust balance sheet, and strong underlying fundamentals such as high occupancy levels and dollar-based rents. As we look ahead, we believe LPA remains well positioned to create enduring value for our shareholders.
