EXPLANATORY NOTE

This quarterly report of Net Lease Office Properties (the “Company”, “NLOP”, “we” or “us”) includes the financial statements of the Company, as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and the Company’s predecessor, Net Lease Office Properties Predecessor (“NLOP Predecessor,” as defined below), as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. NLOP had no operating activity for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and, therefore, no activity is presented for that period.

On November 1, 2023, W. P. Carey Inc. (“WPC”) completed the spin-off (the “Spin-Off”) of NLOP, pursuant to which WPC contributed 59 office properties to the Company. The Spin-Off was effected pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement, dated October 31, 2023 (the “Separation and Distribution Agreement”), between the Company and WPC, as further described in the Information Statement (defined below). “NLOP Predecessor” means the combination of entities under common control that have been “carved-out” of WPC’s consolidated financial statements and presented on a combined basis.

The Spin-Off is more fully described in the preliminary information statement included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 10 (File No. 001-41812) (the “Form 10”) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 4, 2023, the final version of which was included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on October 11, 2023 (the “Information Statement”). The Spin-Off became effective at 5:01 p.m., Eastern Time, on November 1, 2023.

Following the Spin-Off, the Company became an independent publicly traded company and intends to qualify and elect to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with the Company’s initial taxable year ending December 31, 2023. The Company’s common shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “NLOP”.

The financial statements of the Company covered in this report present the financial condition of the Company as of September 30, 2023, which is prior to the Spin-Off. Therefore, the discussion of the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition set forth in this report is not necessarily indicative of the future results of operations, cash flows or financial condition of the Company as an independent, publicly traded company. Moreover, the combined financial statements for NLOP Predecessor are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position following the completion of the Spin-Off. For more information regarding the risks related to our business, refer to risk factors contained in the Form 10.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”), including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 2 of Part I of this Report, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: our corporate strategy and estimated or future economic performance and results, including our expectations surrounding the impact of the broader macroeconomic environment and the ability of tenants to pay rent, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and prospects; our future capital expenditure and leverage levels, debt service obligations, and plans to fund our liquidity needs, including our ability to sell or dispose of properties; prospective statements regarding our access to the capital markets; statements that we make regarding our ability to remain qualified for taxation as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”); and the impact of recently issued accounting pronouncements and regulatory activity.

These statements are based on the current expectations of our management. It is important to note that our 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 these 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, war or the perception that hostilities may be imminent, political instability or civil unrest, or other conflict, could also have material adverse effects on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and prospects. You should exercise caution in relying on forward-looking statements as they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may materially affect our future results, performance, achievements, or transactions.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Organization and Description of Business
 
Net Lease Office Properties (“NLOP” or the “Company”) was formed in the state of Maryland on October 21, 2022. As of September 30, 2023, the Company was a wholly-owned subsidiary of W. P. Carey Inc. (“WPC”).

In September 2023, WPC announced a plan to spin off 59 of its office properties into NLOP, so that it would become a separate publicly-traded REIT (the “Spin-Off”).

On November 1, 2023, WPC completed the Spin-Off, contributing 59 office properties to NLOP. Following the closing of the Spin-Off, NLOP operates as a separate publicly-traded REIT, which WPC externally manages pursuant to certain advisory agreements (the “NLOP Advisory Agreements”) (Note 4).

The Company intends to qualify and elect to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code, commencing with the Company’s initial taxable year ending December 31, 2023. As a REIT, NLOP will not be subject to federal income taxes on income and gains that NLOP distributes to its shareholders as long as it satisfies certain requirements, principally relating to the nature of the Company’s income and the level of its distributions, as well as other factors. NLOP also owns real property in jurisdictions outside the United States through foreign subsidiaries and will be subject to income taxes on the Company’s pre-tax income earned from properties in such countries.

WPC is considered the accounting predecessor of the Company. Through September 30, 2023, NLOP had not conducted any business as a separate company other than start-up related activities.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as set forth within the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented in this Report reflects all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

The Company was capitalized with the issuance of 1,000 common shares to WPC ($0.001 par value per share) for a total of $1 on November 7, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company received a contribution of $303 from WPC.

Organizational Costs

Organizational costs are expensed as incurred. Such costs are comprised of the legal and professional fees associated with the Company.

Note 3. Transactions with Related Parties
 
Upon closing of the Spin-Off on November 1, 2023, NLOP is externally managed by wholly-owned affiliates of WPC pursuant to the NLOP Advisory Agreements (Note 4).

Note 4. Subsequent Events
 
Spin-Off

On November 1, 2023, WPC completed the Spin-Off of 59 office properties into NLOP, subject to the conditions set forth in the Separation and Distribution Agreement. The Spin-Off was accomplished via a pro rata dividend of 1 NLOP common share for every 15 shares of WPC common stock outstanding, resulting in a distribution of an aggregate of 14,620,919 NLOP common shares. Following the closing of the Spin-Off, NLOP operates as a separate publicly-traded REIT, for which wholly-owned subsidiaries of WPC serve as advisors pursuant to the NLOP Advisory Agreements executed in connection with the Spin-Off, as described below in further detail.

Net Lease Office Properties 9/30/2023 10-Q 7



Pursuant to the NLOP Advisory Agreements, which WPC and NLOP entered into on November 1, 2023, WPC provides NLOP with strategic management services, including asset management, property disposition support, and various related services. NLOP will pay WPC an asset management fee of approximately $7.5 million annually, which will be proportionately reduced following the disposition of a portfolio property. In addition, NLOP will reimburse WPC a base administrative amount of approximately $4.0 million annually, for certain administrative services, including day-to-day management services, investor relations, accounting, tax, legal, and other administrative matters.

On October 31, 2023, WPC and NLOP entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement, which set forth the various individual transactions to be consummated that comprised the separation and the distribution, including the assets transferred to and liabilities assumed by NLOP.

On October 31, 2023, WPC and NLOP also entered into a Tax Matters Agreement, which governs the respective rights, responsibilities, and obligations of WPC and NLOP after the Spin-Off, with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, the preparation and filing of tax returns, the control of audits and other tax proceedings, tax covenants, tax indemnification, cooperation, and information sharing.

Following the closing of the Spin-Off, NLOP owns 59 properties totaling approximately 9.3 million leasable square feet (including 0.6 million of operating square footage for a parking garage at a domestic property) primarily leased to corporate tenants on a single-tenant net lease basis. The vast majority of the Company’s office properties are located in the United States, with the balance in Europe. NLOP’s portfolio consists of 62 corporate tenants operating in a variety of industries.

On September 20, 2023, in connection with the proposed Spin-Off (Note 1), certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of NLOP entered into financing arrangements for which funding was subject to certain conditions (including the closing of the Spin-Off), including (i) a $335.0 million senior secured mortgage loan maturing on November 9, 2025 (the “NLOP Mortgage Loan”) and (ii) a $120.0 million mezzanine loan facility maturing on November 9, 2028 (the “NLOP Mezzanine Loan” and, together with the NLOP Mortgage Loan, the “NLOP Financing Arrangements”). At that time, NLOP was a wholly-owned subsidiary of WPC.

The funding of the NLOP Financing Arrangements also occurred on November 1, 2023. NLOP borrowed an aggregate of $455.0 million and each of the NLOP Mortgage Loan and the NLOP Mezzanine Loan was fully drawn. Approximately $350.0 million of the proceeds from the financing (net of transaction expenses) was transferred to WPC in connection with the Spin-Off.

The NLOP Mortgage Loan bears interest at an annual rate of one-month forward-looking term rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (the “Term SOFR” rate), subject to a floor of 3.85%, plus 5.0%. In addition, NLOP entered into an interest rate cap agreement at a strike rate of 5.35% under the terms set forth under the NLOP Mortgage Loan. The NLOP Mezzanine Loan bears interest at an annual rate of 14.5% (10.0% of which is required to be paid current on a monthly basis, and 4.5% of which is a payment-in-kind accrual, on a quarterly basis).

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Nature of Business
 
Pursuant to the terms of a separation and distribution agreement, W. P. Carey Inc. (“WPC”) spun off into a separate publicly-traded company a portfolio of 59 real property assets (the “Spin-Off”). To accomplish this Spin-Off, on October 21, 2022, WPC formed a Maryland real estate investment trust, Net Lease Office Properties (“NLOP”), to own the NLOP Predecessor. For purposes of these combined financial statements, references to “we,” “us,” “NLOP Predecessor,” “Predecessor,” and the “Company” refer to, for periods prior to completion of the Spin-Off, the Predecessor, and for periods after the completion of the Spin-Off, NLOP Business. Information with respect to number of properties and square footage is unaudited.

On November 1, 2023, WPC completed the Spin-Off, contributing 59 office properties to NLOP. Following the closing of the Spin-Off, NLOP operates as a separate publicly-traded real estate investment trust (“REIT”), which WPC externally manages pursuant to certain advisory agreements (the “NLOP Advisory Agreements”). The Spin-Off was accomplished via a pro rata dividend of 1 NLOP common share for every 15 shares of WPC common stock outstanding (Note 12).

NLOP intends to qualify and elect to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code, commencing with the Company’s initial taxable year ending December 31, 2023.

The NLOP Business will be operated as one segment, and through its subsidiaries, will own, operate, and finance office buildings. As of September 30, 2023, NLOP Predecessor’s portfolio was comprised of full or partial ownership interests in 59 properties, totaling approximately 9.3 million leasable square feet (including 0.6 million of operating square footage for a parking garage at a domestic property).

On August 1, 2022, WPC completed a merger with CPA:18 – Global, in which CPA:18 – Global merged with and into one of WPC’s indirect subsidiaries in exchange for shares of its common stock and cash (the “CPA:18 Merger”). Nine of the net lease properties that WPC acquired in the CPA:18 Merger were transferred to NLOP Predecessor in connection with the Spin-Off. Costs related to the CPA:18 Merger have been expensed as incurred and classified within Separation and distribution related costs and other in the combined statements of income, totaling $0.8 million and $1.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying historical unaudited combined financial statements and related notes of NLOP Predecessor do not represent the balance sheet, statement of operations and cash flows of a legal entity, but rather a combination of entities under common control that have been “carved-out” of WPC’s consolidated financial statements and presented herein on a combined basis, in each case, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in combination. The preparation of these unaudited combined financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the dates of the unaudited combined financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented in this Report reflects all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

These unaudited combined financial statements reflect the revenues and direct expenses of the NLOP Predecessor and include material assets and liabilities of WPC that are specifically attributable to the NLOP Predecessor Business. NLOP Predecessor equity in these unaudited combined financial statements represents the excess of total assets over total liabilities. NLOP Predecessor equity is impacted by contributions from and distributions to WPC, which are the result of treasury activities and net funding provided by or distributed to WPC prior to the Spin-Off, as well as the allocated costs and expenses described below.

Net Lease Office Properties 9/30/2023 10-Q 15


Notes to Combined Financial Statements (Unaudited)
The unaudited combined financial statements also include an allocation of indirect costs and expenses incurred by WPC related to the NLOP Business, primarily consisting of compensation and other general and administrative costs using the relative percentage of property ABR of the NLOP Predecessor and WPC management’s knowledge of the NLOP Predecessor. In addition, the unaudited combined financial statements reflect allocation of interest expense from WPC unsecured debt, excluding debt that is specifically attributable to the NLOP Predecessor (Note 7); interest expense was allocated by calculating the unencumbered net investment in real estate of each property held by the NLOP Predecessor as a percentage of WPC’s total consolidated unencumbered net investment in real estate and multiplying that percentage by the corporate interest expense on WPC unsecured debt (Note 11). The amounts allocated in the accompanying unaudited combined financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the actual amount of such indirect expenses that would have been recorded had the NLOP Predecessor been a separate independent entity during the applicable periods. WPC believes the assumptions underlying WPC’s allocation of indirect expenses are reasonable.

Goodwill attributable to NLOP Predecessor was determined by first identifying those assets within NLOP Predecessor that were previously deemed to be a part of a business combination and that WPC paid a premium for. This premium was then allocated to the NLOP Predecessor assets based on the fair values of the NLOP Predecessor assets at the time of acquisition relative to the value of all the real estate acquired as part of the business combination. Any goodwill directly attributable to deferred taxes assumed as part of a business combination and related to our European operations is recorded in functional currency and translated at period end rates where applicable.

The amounts allocated in the accompanying unaudited combined financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the actual amount of such indirect expenses that would have been recorded had the NLOP Predecessor been a separate independent entity. WPC believes the assumptions underlying WPC’s allocation of indirect expenses are reasonable.

Reclassifications — Certain debt agreements with wholly-owned affiliates of WPC have been reclassified to Parent Debt in accordance with the basis of presentation of the historical combined financial statements (Note 7).

Cash and Cash Equivalents — We consider all short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to cash and have a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Items classified as cash equivalents include commercial paper and money market funds. Our cash and cash equivalents are held in the custody of several financial institutions, and these balances, at times, exceed federally insurable limits. We seek to mitigate this risk by depositing funds only with major financial institutions.

Restricted Cash — Restricted cash primarily consists of security deposits and amounts required to be reserved pursuant to lender agreements for debt service, capital improvements, and real estate taxes and is included within other assets on the balance sheet. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the combined balance sheets to the combined statements of cash flows (in thousands):

(a)Restricted cash is included within Other assets, net on our combined balance sheets.

Revenue Recognition, Real Estate Leased to Others — We lease real estate to others primarily on a net leased basis, whereby the tenant is generally responsible for operating expenses relating to the property, including property taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs, and improvements. There have been no significant changes in our policies for revenue from what was previously disclosed in the Information Statement for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Net Parent Investment — In the combined balance sheets, the net parent investment represents WPC’s historical investment in NLOP Predecessor, accumulated net earnings after taxes, and the net effect of transactions between NLOP Predecessor and WPC.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the U.S. dollar weakened against the British pound sterling, but strengthened against the euro and Norwegian Krone. As a result of this fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, the carrying value of our Land, buildings and improvements decreased by $6.6 million from December 31, 2022 to September 30, 2023.

In connection with a change in lease classification due to an extension of the underlying lease, we reclassified a portfolio of four properties with an aggregate carrying value of $14.6 million from Net investments in direct finance leases to Land, buildings and improvements during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 (Note 4).

Depreciation expense, including the effect of foreign currency translation, on our buildings and improvements subject to operating leases was $7.8 million and $7.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $23.3 million and $21.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Real Estate Under Construction

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we capitalized real estate under construction less than $0.1 million. One construction project was in progress, with the balance included in real estate under construction as of September 30, 2023.

Note 4. Finance Receivables
 
Assets representing rights to receive money on demand or at fixed or determinable dates are referred to as finance receivables. Our finance receivables portfolio consists of our Net investments in direct finance leases. Operating leases are not included in finance receivables.

Net Investments in Direct Financing Leases
 
One investment was classified as a direct financing lease as of December 31, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we reclassified this investment (comprised of four properties) with an aggregate carrying value of $14.6 million from Net investments in direct finance leases to Land, buildings and improvements in connection with a change in lease classification due to an extension of the underlying lease. Net investments in direct financing leases is summarized in the table below (in thousands):

Less: unearned income (11,253)
$ $14,728 

At December 31, 2022, there was no reserve or estimate of credit loss on the financing leases.

Income from direct financing leases was $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $1.2 million and $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Credit Quality of Finance Receivables
 
We generally invest in facilities that we believe are critical to a tenant’s business and therefore have a lower risk of tenant default. At both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no material balances of our finance receivables were past due.

We evaluate the credit quality of our finance receivables utilizing an internal five-point credit rating scale, with one representing the highest credit quality and five representing the lowest. A credit quality of one through three indicates a range of investment grade to stable. A credit quality of four through five indicates a range of inclusion on the watch list to risk of default. The credit quality evaluation of our finance receivables is updated quarterly.

Our finance receivable internal credit quality rating was three as of December 31, 2022.

Note 5. Goodwill and Other Intangibles

We have net lease intangibles that are being amortized over periods ranging from two years to 40 years. In-place lease intangibles, at cost are included in In-place lease intangible assets and other in the combined financial statements. Above-market rent intangibles, at cost are included in Above-market rent intangible assets in the combined financial statements. Accumulated amortization of in-place lease and above-market rent intangibles is included in Accumulated depreciation and amortization in the combined financial statements. Below-market rent intangibles are included in Below-market rent and other intangible liabilities, net in the combined financial statements.

Goodwill decreased by $1.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 due to foreign currency translation adjustments to $62.6 million as of September 30, 2023, from $63.6 million as of December 31, 2022.

Current accounting guidance requires that we test for the recoverability of goodwill at the reporting unit level. We have only one reporting unit. We perform our test for impairment annually. We did not identify any triggering events as of September 30, 2023, and therefore no impairment assessment was performed. Should any triggering event occur, we would evaluate the carrying value of our goodwill through an impairment test. If impairment is warranted, the charge would be recorded through the combined income statement as a reduction to earnings.

Intangible assets, intangible liabilities, and goodwill are summarized as follows (in thousands):

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the U.S. dollar weakened against the British pound sterling, but strengthened against the euro and Norwegian krone, resulting in a decrease of $1.7 million in the carrying value of our net intangible assets from December 31, 2022 to September 30, 2023.

Net amortization of intangibles, including the effect of foreign currency translation, was $10.8 million and $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $32.3 million and $25.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Amortization of below-market rent and above-market rent intangibles is recorded as an adjustment to Lease revenues and amortization of in-place lease intangibles is included in Depreciation and amortization.

Note 6. Fair Value Measurements
 
The fair value of an asset is defined as the exit price, which is the amount that would either be received when an asset is sold or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are: Level 1, for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active markets, such as money market funds, equity securities, and U.S. Treasury securities; Level 2, for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the instrument, such as certain derivative instruments including interest rate caps, interest rate swaps, and foreign currency collars; and Level 3, for securities that do not fall into Level 1 or Level 2 and for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring us to develop our own assumptions.

We did not have any transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 category of measurements during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 or 2022.

We determined the estimated fair value of our non-recourse mortgage loans using a discounted cash flow model that estimates the present value of the future loan payments by discounting such payments at current estimated market interest rates. The estimated market interest rates consider interest rate risk and the value of the underlying collateral, which includes quality of the collateral, the credit quality of the tenant/obligor, and the time until maturity. We determined that the fair value of Parent debt approximates its carrying value.

Our material financial instruments had the following carrying values and fair values as of the dates shown (in thousands):

(b)The carrying value of Non-recourse mortgages, net (Note 7) includes unamortized discount of $1.1 million, and unamortized premium of $2.0 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis (Including Impairment Charges)

We periodically assess whether there are any indicators that the value of our real estate investments may be impaired or that their carrying value may not be recoverable.

No impairment was deemed necessary during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Note 7. Debt
 
Non-Recourse Mortgages
 
Non-recourse mortgages consist of mortgage notes payable, which are collateralized by the assignment of real estate properties that were part of the NLOP Predecessor during the applicable periods. At September 30, 2023, the weighted-average interest rate for our total non-recourse mortgage notes payable was 4.8% (fixed-rate and variable-rate non-recourse mortgage notes payable were 4.8% and 4.6%, respectively), with maturity dates ranging from January 2024 to May 2026.

Repayments and Scheduled Mortgage Payments

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we (i) prepaid non-recourse mortgage loans totaling $2.9 million and (ii) made scheduled mortgage payments of approximately $3.9 million. We recognized an aggregate net gain on extinguishment of debt of less than $0.1 million on these repayments, primarily comprised of prepayment gains (losses) on extinguishment of debt, which is included within Other gains and (losses) on our combined statements of income. The weighted-average interest rate for these non-recourse mortgage loans on their respective dates of prepayment and repayment was 5.5%.

Parent Debt

Certain wholly-owned affiliates of WPC entered into debt agreements with the international NLOP Predecessor entities to provide the funding necessary to acquire certain international assets. These debt instruments are reflected in these financials as Parent debt, and had fixed interest rates that averaged 5.9% at both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we prepaid Parent debt totaling $4.6 million.

Debt Facility

On September 20, 2023, in connection with the proposed Spin-Off (Note 1), we and certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into financing arrangements for which funding was subject to certain conditions (including the closing of the Spin-Off), including (i) a $335.0 million senior secured mortgage loan maturing on November 9, 2025 (the “NLOP Mortgage Loan”) and (ii) a $120.0 million mezzanine loan facility maturing on November 9, 2028 (the “NLOP Mezzanine Loan” and, together with the NLOP Mortgage Loan, the “NLOP Financing Arrangements”). At that time, NLOP was a wholly-owned subsidiary of WPC.

The NLOP Mortgage Loan bears interest at an annual rate of one-month forward-looking term rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (the “Term SOFR” rate), subject to a floor of 3.85%, plus 5.0%. In addition, NLOP entered into an interest rate cap agreement at a strike rate of 5.35% under the terms set forth under the NLOP Mortgage Loan. The NLOP Mezzanine Loan bears interest at an annual rate of 14.5% (10.0% of which is required to be paid current on a monthly basis, and 4.5% of which is a payment-in-kind accrual, on a quarterly basis). See Note 12 for information about the funding of the NLOP Financing Arrangements in connection with the closing of the Spin-Off on November 1, 2023.

In connection with the closing of the NLOP Financing Arrangements, we incurred financing costs totaling $14.4 million as of September 30, 2023, which is included in Other assets, net, on our combined financial statements and was reimbursed to WPC by us in connection with the Spin-Off (Note 12).

Interest Paid

Interest paid was $8.1 million and $7.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $24.4 million and $18.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Impact

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the U.S. dollar strengthened against the Norwegian krone, resulting in a decrease of $3.1 million in the aggregate carrying value of our Non-recourse mortgages, net from December 31, 2022 to September 30, 2023.

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies

At September 30, 2023, we were not involved in any material litigation. Various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business are pending against us. The results of these proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our combined financial position or results of operations.

Note 9. Income Taxes

As of September 30, 2023, NLOP Predecessor was owned by WPC, which has elected to be treated as a REIT since 2012. We believe that WPC has been organized and has operated in such a manner to maintain its qualification as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes. As a REIT, WPC is generally not subject to corporate level federal income taxes on earnings distributed to its shareholders. Accordingly, we have not included any provisions for federal income taxes related to the REIT in the accompanying combined financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Current income tax expense was $0.4 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and $1.1 million for both the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Deferred income tax benefit was $0.1 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $0.8 million and $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Note 11. Transactions with WPC

Historically, NLOP Predecessor has been managed and operated in the normal course of business consistent with other affiliates of WPC. Accordingly, certain shared costs have been allocated to NLOP Predecessor and reflected as expenses in the combined statements of income. Management considers the allocation methodologies used to be reasonable and appropriate reflections of the historical WPC expenses attributable to NLOP Predecessor for purposes of the combined financial statements of NLOP Predecessor. However, the expenses reflected in the combined statements of income may not be indicative of the actual expenses that would have been incurred during the periods presented if NLOP Predecessor historically operated as a separate, stand-alone entity. In addition, the expenses reflected in the combined statements of income may not be indicative of related expenses that will be incurred in the future by NLOP Predecessor.

Note 12. Subsequent Events

Spin-Off

On November 1, 2023, WPC completed the Spin-Off of 59 office properties into NLOP, subject to the conditions set forth in the Separation and Distribution Agreement. The Spin-Off was accomplished via a pro rata dividend of 1 NLOP common share for every 15 shares of WPC common stock outstanding, resulting in a distribution of an aggregate of 14,620,919 NLOP common shares. Following the closing of the Spin-Off, NLOP operates as a separate publicly-traded REIT, for which wholly-owned subsidiaries of WPC serve as advisors pursuant to the NLOP Advisory Agreements executed in connection with the Spin-Off.

The funding of the NLOP Financing Arrangements also occurred on November 1, 2023. We borrowed an aggregate of $455.0 million and each of the NLOP Mortgage Loan and the NLOP Mezzanine Loan was fully drawn. Approximately $350.0 million of the proceeds from the financing (net of transaction expenses) was transferred to WPC in connection with the Spin-Off.

Lease Extension and Lease Termination

On October 25, 2023, NLOP, through one of its subsidiaries, entered into (i) an amended and restated lease agreement (the “Lease Extension”) with respect to the two properties leased by BCBSM, Inc. located at 1800 Yankee Doodle Road and 3400 Yankee Doodle Road in Eagan, Minnesota (the “Extension Premises”) and (ii) lease termination agreements (collectively, the “Lease Terminations”) with respect to the four properties leased by BCBSM, Inc. located at 3535 Blue Cross Road, 1750 Yankee Doodle Road, 3311 Terminal Drive, and 3545 Blue Cross Road (the “Termination Premises”).

The Lease Extension, among other things, extends the lease expiration date for the Extension Premises by ten years until January 31, 2037, subject to the tenant’s right to further extend the lease term for two additional five-year periods following the new lease expiration date.

The Lease Terminations, among other things, shorten the lease term of each of the Termination Premises from January 31, 2027 to the earlier of (i) June 30, 2024 and (ii) the sale of the respective property. In connection with the Lease Terminations, the tenant has agreed to pay NLOP termination fees of approximately $12.0 million to $13.0 million in the aggregate for all of the Termination Premises payable and determined based on the date of each property’s termination date.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to assist in understanding our financial statements and the reasons for changes in certain key components of our financial statements from period to period. This item also provides our perspective on our financial position and liquidity, as well as certain other factors that may affect our future results. Certain risks may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the following discussion. For a complete discussion of such risk factors, see the section titled “Risk Factors” included in the preliminary information statement included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 10 (File No. 001-41812) (the “Form 10”) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 4, 2023, the final version of which was included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on October 11, 2023 (the “Information Statement”).

Basis of Presentation

The historical results of operations and liquidity and capital resources of NLOP Predecessor do not represent the historical results of operations and liquidity and capital resources of a legal entity, but rather a combination of entities under common control that have been “carved-out” of WPC’s consolidated financial statements and presented on a combined basis, in each case, in accordance with GAAP. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in combination. The preparation of the financial results of NLOP Predecessor required management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the dates of the relevant reporting periods and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The financial results of NLOP Predecessor reflect the revenues and direct expenses of the NLOP Predecessor and include material assets and liabilities of WPC that are specifically attributable to the NLOP Predecessor. NLOP Predecessor equity represents the excess of total assets over total liabilities. Predecessor equity is impacted by contributions from and distributions to WPC, which are the result of treasury activities and net funding provided by or distributed to WPC prior to the Separation, as well as the allocated costs and expenses.

The financial results of the NLOP Predecessor also include an allocation of indirect costs and expenses incurred by WPC related to the NLOP Predecessor, primarily consisting of compensation and other general and administrative costs using the relative percentage of property revenue of the NLOP Predecessor and WPC management’s knowledge of the NLOP Predecessor. In addition, the financial results reflect allocation of interest expense from WPC unsecured debt, excluding debt that is specifically attributable to the NLOP Predecessor; interest expense was allocated by calculating the unencumbered net investment in real estate of each property held by the NLOP Predecessor as a percentage of WPC’s total consolidated unencumbered net investment in real estate and multiplying that percentage by the interest expense on WPC unsecured debt. The amounts allocated in the financial results of NLOP Predecessor are not necessarily indicative of the actual amount of such indirect expenses that would have been recorded had the NLOP Predecessor been a separate independent entity during the applicable periods. NLOP believes the assumptions underlying NLOP’s allocation of indirect expenses are reasonable.

Spin-Off

On November 1, 2023, WPC completed the Spin-Off of 59 office properties into NLOP. The Spin-Off was accomplished via a pro rata dividend of 1 NLOP common share for every 15 shares of WPC common stock outstanding, resulting in a distribution of an aggregate of 14,620,919 NLOP common shares. Following the closing of the Spin-Off, NLOP operates as a separate publicly-traded REIT, for which wholly-owned subsidiaries of WPC serve as advisors pursuant to the NLOP Advisory Agreements executed in connection with the Spin-Off (Note 12).

Emerging Growth Company

NLOP is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in NLOP’s periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation, and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. NLOP has elected to take advantage of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, NLOP, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of NLOP’s financial statements with certain other public companies difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

NLOP will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Distribution, (b) in which NLOP has total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which NLOP is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of the common equity of NLOP that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of its most recently completed second fiscal quarter; and (ii) the date on which NLOP has issued more than $1.00 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

Terms and Definitions

Pro Rata Metrics — The portfolio information above contains certain metrics prepared on a pro rata basis. We refer to these metrics as pro rata metrics. We have one investment in which our economic ownership is less than 100%. On a full consolidation basis, we report 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of this investment that is deemed to be under our control, even if our ownership is less than 100%. On a pro rata basis, we present our proportionate share, based on our economic ownership of this jointly owned investment, of the portfolio metrics of this investment. Multiplying this jointly owned investment’s financial statement line items by our percentage ownership and adding or subtracting those amounts from our totals, as applicable, may not accurately depict the legal and economic implications of holding an ownership interest of less than 100% in our jointly owned investment.

ABR ABR represents contractual minimum annualized base rent for our properties and reflects exchange rates as of September 30, 2023. If there is a rent abatement, we annualize the first monthly contractual base rent following the free rent period.

General and Administrative

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same periods in 2022, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively, primarily due to the nine additional properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger, along with higher general and administrative corporate expense subject to allocation. General and administrative expenses were allocated to NLOP Predecessor based on the relative percentage of ABR of the NLOP Predecessor Business. The amounts allocated are not necessarily indicative of the actual amount of indirect expenses that would have been recorded had NLOP Predecessor been a separate independent entity.

Property Expenses, Excluding Reimbursable Tenant Costs

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same periods in 2022, property expenses, excluding reimbursable tenant costs, increased by $0.6 million and $0.8 million, respectively, primarily due to higher maintenance expense at certain properties.

Separation and Distribution Related Costs and Other

Separation and distribution related costs and other are comprised of (i) costs related to the Spin-Off for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and (ii) CPA:18 Merger-related costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Interest Expense
 
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same periods in 2022, interest expense increased by $0.4 million and $6.2 million, respectively, primarily related to non-recourse loans assumed in the CPA:18 Merger, as well as higher corporate interest expense subject to allocation. Interest expense is comprised of interest on Non-recourse mortgages, as well as interest expense on Parent debt specific to NLOP Predecessor properties and that allocated to NLOP Predecessor based on the relative percentage of unencumbered net investment in real estate of each property compared to WPC. The amounts allocated in the accompanying combined financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the actual amount of interest expense that would have been recorded had the NLOP Predecessor been a separate independent entity during the applicable periods. We expect increasing interest rates and higher debt balances to have a material impact on our results of operations depending on the terms we are able to obtain in new financings or refinancings.

Provision for Income Taxes

For the three months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, provision for income taxes increased by $0.2 million, primarily due to higher taxes recognized on a property located in Norway, which was acquired in the CPA:18 Merger.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, provision for income taxes decreased by $0.2 million, primarily due to lower taxes recognized on a property located in the United Kingdom.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Cash During the Period
 
We use the cash flow generated from our investments primarily to meet our operating expenses, capital expenditures and debt service. Our cash flows fluctuate periodically due to a number of factors, which may include, among other things: the timing of purchases and sales of real estate; the timing of the repayment of mortgage loans and receipt of lease revenues; the timing and amount of other lease-related payments; and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Despite these fluctuations, we believe that we will generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our normal recurring short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We may also use existing cash resources and proceeds from dispositions of properties in order to meet these needs. We assess our ability to access capital on an ongoing basis. The following table summarizes the changes in cash flows for the periods presented (in thousands):

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities — Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $3.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to higher interest expense.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities — Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $16.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to cash paid to stockholders of CPA:18 – Global in the CPA:18 Merger during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities — Net cash used in financing activities increased by $11.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to financing costs incurred during the current year period in connection with the NLOP Financing Arrangements, as well as an increase in prepayments and scheduled payments of non-recourse mortgages.

(a)Table represents external mortgage debt of NLOP Predecessor excluding Parent debt. It does not reflect the Spin-Off financing arrangements discussed below.
(b)Aggregate debt balance includes unamortized discount, net, totaling $1.1 million and $2.0 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and unamortized deferred financing costs totaling less than $0.1 million as of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

In connection with the Spin-Off, we and certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into the NLOP Financing Arrangements (Note 7). On November 1, 2023, we borrowed an aggregate of $455.0 million under the NLOP Financing Arrangements, and each of the NLOP Mortgage Loan and the NLOP Mezzanine Loan was fully drawn. Approximately $350 million of the proceeds from the financing (net of transaction expenses) was transferred to WPC in accordance with the Separation and Distribution Agreement. The remainder of the proceeds from the NLOP Financing Arrangements is anticipated to be used to pay fees and expenses related to the origination of the NLOP Financing Arrangements and other transaction costs, to be deposited with the Lenders in satisfaction of the reserve requirements pursuant to the NLOP Financing Arrangements, and for other general corporate expenses. As of the November 1, 2023 completion of the Spin-Off, we had an estimated $622 million in consolidated debt principal outstanding.

Cash Requirements and Liquidity
 
At September 30, 2023, our cash resources consisted of the following:
 
cash and cash equivalents totaling $5.1 million. Of this amount, $2.6 million, at then-current exchange rates, was held in foreign subsidiaries, and we could be subject to restrictions or significant costs should we decide to repatriate these amounts; and
unleveraged properties that had an aggregate asset carrying value of approximately $1.2 billion at September 30, 2023, although there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain financing for these properties.

As of the completion of the Spin-Off on November 1, 2023, we had estimated cash and cash equivalents of approximately $53.8 million (Note 12).

Net Lease Office Properties 9/30/2023 10-Q 31



As of September 30, 2023, scheduled debt principal payments total $0.7 million through December 31, 2023 and $34.8 million through December 31, 2024 (Note 7). These scheduled payments do not reflect the impact of the NLOP Financing Arrangements that were funded on November 1, 2023 (Note 12).

During the next 12 months following September 30, 2023 and thereafter, we expect that our significant cash requirements will include:

making scheduled principal and balloon payments on our non-recourse mortgage debt obligations, totaling $35.0 million;
making scheduled interest payments on our non-recourse mortgage debt and parent debt obligations (future interest payments total $50.5 million, with $14.0 million due during the next 12 months);
making scheduled principal payments on the NLOP Financing Arrangements, totaling $50.3 million (Note 12);
making scheduled interest payments on the NLOP Financing Arrangements (future interest payments total $151.0 million, with $47.7 million due during the next 12 months) (Note 12);
funding future capital commitments and tenant improvement allowances (Note 3); and
other normal recurring operating expenses.

We expect to fund these cash requirements through cash generated from operations and cash received from dispositions of properties.

Our liquidity could be adversely affected by refinancing debt at higher interest rates, unanticipated costs, and greater-than-anticipated operating expenses.

Certain amounts disclosed above are based on the applicable foreign currency exchange rate at September 30, 2023.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from what was previously disclosed in the Information Statement for the year ended December 31, 2022. Many of these accounting policies require judgment and the use of estimates and assumptions when applying these policies in the preparation of our combined financial statements. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate these estimates and judgments based on historical experience as well as other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates are subject to change in the future if underlying assumptions or factors change. Certain accounting policies, while significant, may not require the use of estimates.

Supplemental Financial Measures

In the real estate industry, analysts and investors employ certain non-GAAP supplemental financial measures in order to facilitate meaningful comparisons between periods and among peer companies. Additionally, in the formulation of our goals and in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our strategies, we use FFO and AFFO, which are non-GAAP measures defined by our management. We believe that these measures are useful to investors to consider because they may assist them to better understand and measure the performance of our business over time and against similar companies. A description of FFO and AFFO and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided below.

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations
 
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP 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 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 measure. FFO is not equivalent to, nor a substitute for, net income or loss as determined under GAAP.

Net Lease Office Properties 9/30/2023 10-Q 32



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 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 property, impairment charges on real estate or other assets incidental to the company’s main business, gains or losses on changes in control of interests in real estate, and depreciation and amortization from real estate assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO.

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, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rent and related reserves, other non-cash rent adjustments, non-cash allowance for credit losses on loans receivable and finance leases, stock-based compensation, non-cash environmental accretion expense, amortization of discounts and premiums on debt, and amortization of deferred financing costs. Our 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 have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude non-core income and expenses, such as gains or losses from extinguishment of debt and spin-off expenses. We also exclude realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign currency exchange rate movements, which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating 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 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 to other REITs. We use AFFO as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals and evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies.

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 performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating 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 alternatives to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP, or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.

FFO and AFFO, or similarly titled measures disclosed by other REITs, may not be comparable to our FFO and AFFO measures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
 
Market Risk
 
Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and equity prices. The primary market risks that we are exposed to are interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk.

We are also exposed to further market risk as a result of tenant concentrations in certain industries and/or geographic regions, since adverse market factors can affect the ability of tenants in a particular industry/region to meet their respective lease obligations. In order to manage this risk, we view our collective tenant roster as a portfolio and we attempt to diversify such portfolio so that we are not overexposed to a particular industry or geographic region.
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
The values of our real estate and related fixed-rate debt obligations, as well as the values of our unsecured debt obligations, are subject to fluctuations based on changes in interest rates. The value of our real estate is also subject to fluctuations based on local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of lessees, which may affect our ability to refinance property-level mortgage debt when balloon payments are scheduled, if we do not choose to repay the debt when due. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. An increase in interest rates would likely cause the fair value of our assets to decrease. Increases in interest rates may also have an impact on the credit profile of certain tenants.

We are exposed to the effects of interest rate changes as a result of borrowings used to maintain liquidity and to fund the financing and refinancing of our real estate investment portfolio and operations. Our profitability and the value of our real estate investment portfolio may be adversely affected during any period as a result of interest rate changes. We expect increasing interest rates and higher debt balances to have a material impact on our results of operations depending on the terms we are able to obtain in new financings or refinancings.

We have borrowed funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Interest rate fluctuations will generally not affect future earnings or cash flows on fixed rate debt unless such debt matures or is otherwise terminated. However, interest rate changes will affect the fair value of fixed rate instruments. Movements in interest rates on variable rate debt could change future earnings and cash flows, but not significantly affect the fair value of the debt. However, changes in required risk premiums would result in changes in the fair value of variable rate instruments.

At September 30, 2023, fixed-rate debt comprises 75.1% of our Non-recourse mortgages and variable-rate debt comprises 24.9%.

Our debt obligations are more fully described in Note 7 and Liquidity and Capital Resources — Summary of Financing in Item 2 above. The following table presents principal cash flows based upon expected maturity dates of our debt obligations outstanding at September 30, 2023 (in thousands):

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
 
We own international investments in Europe, and as a result are subject to risk from the effects of exchange rate movements in three foreign currencies, primarily the Norwegian krone, British pound sterling, and euro which may affect future costs and cash flows. We have obtained, and may in the future obtain, non-recourse mortgage financing in the local currency. Volatile market conditions arising from macroeconomic factors, may result in significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. To the extent that currency fluctuations increase or decrease rental revenues, as translated to U.S. dollars, the change in debt service (comprised of principal and interest, excluding balloon payments), as translated to U.S. dollars, will partially offset the effect of fluctuations in revenue and, to some extent, mitigate the risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We estimate that, for a 1% increase or decrease in the exchange rate between the Norwegian krone, British pound sterling, or euro and U.S. dollar, there would be a corresponding change in the projected estimated cash flow (scheduled future rental revenues, net of scheduled future debt service payments for the next 12 months) for our combined foreign operations at September 30, 2023 of less than $0.1 million for all three currencies.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of tenants are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographic region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations, including those to the Company, to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions. The Company is subject to tenant, geographic and industry concentrations. Any downturn of the economic conditions in one or more of these tenants, geographies or industries could result in a material reduction of our cash flows or material losses to us.

The factors we consider in determining the credit risk of our tenants include, but are not limited to: payment history; credit status (credit ratings for public companies are used as a primary metric); change in tenant space needs (i.e., expansion/downsize); tenant financial performance; economic conditions in a specific geographic region; and industry specific credit considerations. We believe that the credit risk of our portfolio is reduced by the high quality and diversity of our existing tenant base, reviews of prospective tenants’ risk profiles prior to lease execution and consistent monitoring of our portfolio to identify potential problem tenants.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our combined portfolio as set forth in our unaudited combined financial statements had the following significant characteristics, based on the percentage of our combined total revenues:

91% related to domestic operations; which included concentrations of 31% and 16% in Texas and Minnesota, respectively; and
9% related to international operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
 
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our disclosure controls and procedures include internal controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in this and other reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the required time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. It should be noted that no system of controls can provide complete assurance of achieving a company’s objectives and that future events may impact the effectiveness of a system of controls.
 
Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, after conducting an evaluation, together with members of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2023, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of September 30, 2023 at a reasonable level of assurance.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
