Item 7.01 Regulation FD.
On September 29, 2025, Realty Income Corporation (the “Company”) announced that it has held an initial $716 million closing (the “Closing”) for its recently launched perpetual life U.S. Open-End Core Plus Fund (the “Fund”). The Closing constituted the first third-party investment into the Fund (the “Closing”). Investors included The Townsend Group along with a diversified base of institutional investors, such as public and corporate pension funds, asset managers, and investment advisors. CBRE Investment Banking acted as the Company’s advisor in connection with the Closing. The Company anticipates additional closings to occur during its cornerstone round through March 31, 2026. As of September 29, 2025, the Fund’s approximate $1.4 billion seed portfolio, which included properties that were contributed from the Company’s existing wholly-owned portfolio, was comprised of 183 income-generating properties with over half of annualized base rent derived from industrial properties and the remainder derived predominantly from retail properties. After giving effect to the Closing (assuming the initial capital commitments are called in full), the Company will continue to indirectly own approximately 60% of the outstanding limited partnership interests in the Fund.
