Presidio Property Trust, Inc. Announces Earnings for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025

SAN DIEGO, CA / / May 14, 2025 / Presidio Property Trust, Inc. (NASDAQ:SQFT)(NASDAQ:SQFTP)(NASDAQ:SQFTW) (the "Company"), an internally managed, diversified real estate investment trust ("REIT"), today reported earnings for its three months ended March 31, 2025. "In spite of a challenging macroeconomic climate and economic uncertainty, our team has remained more focused than ever on strategic execution and creating a strong financial balance sheet to create value across our portfolio," said Jack Heilbron, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. "A noteworthy accomplishment during the first quarter was our 100% retention rate for expiring leases," said Gary Katz, the Company's Chief Investment Officer. "Activity within both the acquisition and resale segments of our model home business remains balanced. I am excited about the recent acquisitions, which add another nationally ranked builder to our portfolio. This not only expands our geographical footprint but also represents our ability to attract new clients and desirable product, to complement our existing model home portfolio," said Steve Hightower, President of the Model Home Division. The Three Months Ended March 31, 2025, Financial Results Net income attributable to the Company's common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was approximately $1.7 million, or $.13 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of approximately $5.8 million, or ($0.47) per basic and diluted share for the three months ended March, 31, 2024. The change in net income attributable to the Company's common stockholders was a result of: Total revenues were approximately $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $4.8 million for the same period in 2024. As of March 31, 2025, we had approximately $117.4 million in net real estate assets including 84 model homes, compared to approximately $135.3 million in net real estate assets including 88 model homes at March 31, 2024. The average number of model homes held during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was 81 and 99, respectively. The change in revenue is directly related to the decrease in model home rental income and transaction fees during the current period, and the sale of our two commercial properties on February 7, 2025. General and administrative ("G&A") expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 totaled approximately $1.7 million and $2.1 million, respectively. G&A expenses as a percentage of total revenue was 40.3% and 43.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. G&A expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 decreased by approximately $0.4 million partially related to consulting fees in 2024 including a one-time payment for the setup of DMH 207, and additional legal fees related to Zuma Capital Management, LLC (Zuma Capital"), which was not repeated in 2025. Additionally, stock compensation was down by approximately $0.3 million due to the reduction of new restricted stock grants in 2025, slightly offset by an increase in accrued board compensation of $0.1 million related to estimated cash payment in-lieu-of restricted stock grants. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, Company sold six (6) model homes for approximately $2.8 million, net of sales costs, and recognized a gain of approximately $0.2 million. Additionally on February 7, 2025, the Company sold two commercial properties, Union Town Center and Research Parkway, to a single buyer for approximately $17.0 million and recognized a net gain of approximately $4.2 million, net of closing costs. As of March 31, 2025 we held 29,431 shares of CDT, as a result of their 1-for-100 reverse stock split in January 2025, 709,000 public common stock warrants of CDTTW, and 540,000 private common stock warrants, with a combined value of approximately $29,519. Conduit's common stock (CDT) and public common stock warrants (CDTTW) and Private CDT Warrants presented on the consolidated balance sheets were measured at fair value using Level 1 and Level 3 market prices, taking into account the adoption of ASU 2022-03 Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The fair value adjusted during the three months ended March 31, 2025 resulted in the Company recording a loss of approximately $0.2 million as compared to a loss of approximately $3.9 million recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024. Interest expense, including amortization of deferred finance charges was approximately $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to approximately $1.5 million for the same period in 2024. The weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was 5.83% and 5.23% as of March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Mortgage notes payable totaled approximately $94.4 million and $102.3 million as of March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in mortgage notes payable is a direct result of the sale of our two commercial properties during February 2025 and the change in the number of model homes. FFO (non-GAAP) decreased by approximately $0.2 million to approximately $(1.2 million) from $(1.0 million) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. A reconciliation of FFO to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is attached to this press release. However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization as well as the changes in the value of the Company's properties that result from use or market conditions, each of which have real economic effects and could materially impact the Company's results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of the Company's performance is limited. We believe Core FFO (non-GAAP) provides a useful metric in comparing operations between reporting periods and in assessing the sustainability of our ongoing operating performance. Core FFO decreased by about $0.6 million, from approximately $(0.4 million) for the three months ended March 31, 2024, to approximately $(1.0 million) for the three months ended March 31, 2025. A reconciliation of Core FFO to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is attached to this press release. Acquisitions and Dispositions for the three months Ended March 31, 2025: Acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2025: We acquired 12 model homes for approximately $4.3 million. The purchase price was paid through cash payments of approximately $3.0 million and mortgage notes of approximately $1.3 million. Dispositions during the three months ended March 31, 2025: On February 7, 2025, the Company sold two commercial properties, Union Town Center and Research Parkway, to a single buyer for approximately $17.0 million and recognized a net gain of approximately $4.2 million, net of closing costs. The Company sold six (6) model homes for approximately $2.8 million, net of sales costs, and recognized a gain of approximately $0.2 million. Segment Income during the three months ended March 31, 2025: The following tables compare the Company's segment activity and NOI and adjusted NOI for Model Home income to its results of operations and financial position as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 respectively.

The Other Non-Segment & Consolidating Items represent corporate activity, the investment in Conduit Pharmaceutical, and other eliminating items for consolidation. The information for Corporate and Other are presented to reconcile back to the consolidated statement of operations, but is not considered a reportable segment. This includes the loss on Conduit marketable securities.

Presidio's model homes are leased to homebuilders located primarily in the sun belt states. Presidio's office, industrial, and retail properties are located primarily in Colorado, with properties also located in Maryland, North Dakota, Texas, and Southern California. For more information on Presidio, please visit Presidio's website at Definitions Non-GAAP Financial Measures Funds from Operations ("FFO") - The Company evaluates performance based on Funds From Operations, which we refer to as FFO, as management believes that FFO represents the most accurate measure of activity and is the basis for distributions paid to equity holders. The Company defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, hedge ineffectiveness, acquisition costs of newly acquired properties that are not capitalized and lease acquisition costs that are not capitalized plus depreciation and amortization, including amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and impairment charges on properties or investments in non-consolidated REITs, and after adjustments to exclude equity in income or losses from, and, to include the proportionate share of FFO from, non-consolidated REITs. However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization as well as the changes in the value of the Company's properties that result from use or market conditions, each of which have real economic effects and could materially impact the Company's results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of the Company's performance is limited. In addition, other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition as the Company does, and, accordingly, the Company's FFO may not be comparable to other REITs' FFO. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of the Company's performance. Core Funds from Operations ("Core FFO") - We calculate Core FFO by using FFO as defined by NAREIT and adjusting for certain other non-core items. We exclude from our Core FFO calculation acquisition costs, loss on early extinguishment of debt, changes in the fair value of the earn-out, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, non-cash warrant dividends, other non-recuring expenses, and the amortization of stock-based compensation. We believe Core FFO provides a useful metric in comparing operations between reporting periods and in assessing the sustainability of our ongoing operating performance. Other equity REITs may calculate Core FFO differently or not at all, and, accordingly, the Company's Core FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs' Core FFO.

San Diego fire pits: Are they going up in smoke?

SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — The sound of a fire crackling, buffeted by windy ocean spray is a luxury that might be a thing of the past in the time of San Diego austerity, as the mayor and city council race to trim $258 million from the budget. Supporters of fire pits say the $135,000 savings for scrapping San Diego's fire rings is out of line with what the city is. 'That is why people come to San Diego is to have that beach culture experience, catching a wave during the day, having a beach bonfire at night, that's what makes San Diego,' said Richard Bailey, a Mission Beach business owner and former Coronado Mayor. Business owners say the fire pits keep the atmosphere alive well after dark. The Mission Beach Town Council on the other hand says for them cutting the fire pits makes sense financially and it cleans up a problem they've been trying to fix anyway. 'The reason I feel the fire pits are a no brainer is because San Diego has the eighth worse ozone pollution in the nation. It's surprising to everybody I tell, and when they find out, 'God we are this polluted what can we do?' Eliminate 184 fire pits,' said Gary Katz, a member of the Ocean Beach Town Council. Locals who live in South Mission Beach say people burn couches, trash and even scooters in the fire pits and the smoke blows right into their homes. 'There's an L shape, so they are up the beach this way and then down the parking lot to the east, so no matter which way the wind blows, there is a 99% chance we are going to get a lot of smoke,' said Marty Zimmerman, a Mission Beach resident. The fire pits are currently cut from the draft budget so it will take the city council to save the beach fires. 'I would hope they would keep it, regardless of the cost, it benefits the people that live here the most,' said Kelvin Dean, who was born and raised in San Diego. The final budget will be submitted by June 10. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
