results or events to be materially different. The words “may,”
“will,” “seeks,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “estimates,”

Accounting Treatment of Rent
Deferrals
The majority of the concessions granted to our tenants as a
result of the COVID-19 pandemic are rent deferrals or temporary
rent abatements with the original lease term unchanged and
collection of deferred rent deemed probable. As a result of relief
granted by the FASB and the SEC related to lease modification
accounting, rental revenue used to calculate Net Income, have not
been, and we do not expect it to be, significantly impacted by
these types of deferrals.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release discusses the non-GAAP financial measures we use to
evaluate our performance, including Earnings before Interest,
Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted Earnings
before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted
EBITDA”), Net Operating Income (“NOI”) and Cash Net Operating
Income (“Cash NOI”) and Cash Paid for Interest. A description of
these non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to the most directly
comparable GAAP measure, which is net loss, is provided above.
In December 2022 we announced that we changed our business
strategy and terminated our election to be taxed as a REIT
effective January 1, 2023, however, our business and operations
have not materially changed in the first quarter of 2023.
Therefore, we did not change any of the non-GAAP metrics that we
have historically used to evaluate performance.
Caution on Use of Non-GAAP Measures
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, NOI, Cash NOI and Cash Paid for
Interest should not be construed to be more relevant or accurate
than the current GAAP methodology in calculating net income or in
its applicability in evaluating our operating performance. The
method utilized to evaluate the value and performance of real
estate under GAAP should be construed as a more relevant measure of
operational performance and considered more prominently than the
non-GAAP metrics.
As a result, we believe that the use of these non-GAAP metrics,
together with the required GAAP presentations, provide a more
complete understanding of our performance, including relative to
our peers and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to
make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing
activities. However, these non-GAAP metrics are not indicative of
cash available to fund ongoing cash needs, including the ability to
pay cash dividends. Investors are cautioned that these non-GAAP
metrics should only be used to assess the sustainability of our
operating performance excluding these activities, as they exclude
certain costs that have a negative effect on our operating
performance during the periods in which these costs are
incurred.
Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and
Amortization, Net Operating Income, Cash Net Operating Income and
Cash Paid for Interest.
We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
adjusted for (i) impairment charges, (ii) interest income or other
income or expense, (iii) gains or losses on debt extinguishment,
(iv) equity-based compensation expense, (v) acquisition and
transaction costs, (vi) gains or losses from the sale of real
estate investments and (vii) expenses paid with issuances of common
stock in lieu of cash is an appropriate measure of our ability to
incur and service debt. We consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
useful indicators of our performance. Because these metrics’
calculations exclude such factors as depreciation and amortization
of real estate assets, interest expense, and equity-based
compensation (which can vary among owners of identical assets in
similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and
useful-life estimates), these metrics; presentations facilitate
comparisons of operating performance between periods and between
other companies that use these measures. Adjusted EBITDA should not
be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating
activities, as a measure of our liquidity or as an alternative to
net income as an indicator of our operating activities. Other
companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently and our
calculation should not be compared to that of other companies.
NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure used by us to evaluate the
operating performance of our real estate. NOI is equal to total
revenues, excluding contingent purchase price consideration, less
property operating and maintenance expense. NOI excludes all other
items of expense and income included in the financial statements in
calculating net income (loss). We believe NOI provides useful and
relevant information because it reflects only those income and
expense items that are incurred at the property level and presents
such items on an unleveraged basis. We use NOI to assess and
compare property level performance and to make decisions concerning
the operations of the properties. Further, we believe NOI is useful
to investors as a performance measure because, when compared across
periods, NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in
occupancy rates, rental rates, operating expenses and acquisition
activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not
immediately apparent from net income (loss). NOI excludes certain
items included in calculating net income (loss) in order to provide
results that are more closely related to a property’s results of
operations. For example, interest expense is not necessarily linked
to the operating performance of a real estate asset. In addition,
depreciation and amortization, because of historical cost
accounting and useful life estimates, may distort operating
performance at the property level. NOI presented by us may not be
comparable to NOI reported by other companies that define NOI
differently. We believe that in order to facilitate a clear
understanding of our operating results, NOI should be examined in
conjunction with net income (loss) as presented in our consolidated
financial statements. NOI should not be considered as an
alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of our
performance or to cash flows as a measure of our liquidity or our
ability to pay dividends.
Cash NOI, is a non-GAAP financial measure that is intended to
reflect the performance of our properties. We define Cash NOI as
NOI excluding amortization of above/below market lease intangibles
and straight-line adjustments that are included in GAAP lease
revenues. We believe that Cash NOI is a helpful measure that both
investors and management can use to evaluate the current financial
performance of our properties and it allows for comparison of our
operating performance between periods and to other companies. Cash
NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income, as an
indication of our financial performance, or to cash flows as a
measure of liquidity or our ability to fund all needs. The method
by which we calculate and present Cash NOI may not be directly
comparable to the way other companies present Cash NOI.
Cash Paid for Interest is calculated based on the interest
expense less non-cash portion of interest expense and amortization
of mortgage (discount) premium, net. Management believes that Cash
Paid for Interest provides useful information to investors to
assess our overall solvency and financial flexibility. Cash Paid
for Interest should not be considered as an alternative to interest
