The aggregate Sterling-denominated purchase price of the assets acquired during the three months ended March 31, 2026 included $15.2 million contingent consideration obligations related to leasing activities for four U.K. retail park properties acquired, all of which was deemed estimable and probable of payment and therefore was accrued as of March 31, 2026.
The properties acquired during the three months ended March 31, 2026 generated total revenue and net income of $5.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively.
B.    Investments in Existing Properties
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we capitalized costs of $22.7 million on existing properties in our portfolio, consisting of $19.8 million for building improvements, $2.8 million for re-leasing costs, and $0.1 million for recurring capital expenditures. In comparison, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, we capitalized costs of $30.7 million on existing properties in our portfolio, consisting of $29.8 million for building improvements, $0.9 million for re-leasing costs, and less than $0.1 million for recurring capital expenditures.
C.    Properties with Existing Leases
The value of the in-place and above-market leases is recorded to 'Lease intangible assets, net' on our consolidated balance sheets, and the value of the below-market leases is recorded to 'Lease intangible liabilities, net' on our consolidated balance sheets.
The values of the in-place leases are amortized as depreciation and amortization expense. The amounts amortized to expense for all of our in-place leases for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $204.3 million and $213.2 million, respectively.
The values of the above-market and below-market leases are amortized over the term of the respective leases, including any bargain renewal options, as an adjustment to rental revenue in our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The amounts amortized as a net decrease to rental revenue for capitalized above-market and below-market leases for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $6.1 million and $9.7 million, respectively.
The following table presents the estimated impact during the next five years and thereafter related to the amortization of the above-market and below-market lease intangibles and the amortization of the in-place lease intangibles as of March 31, 2026 (in thousands):
