  Content	In a release issued under the same headline earlier today by Global Net Lease, Inc. (NYSE: GNL), please note that in the Full Year 2025 Guidance and Dividend Update section, the third bullet should read "Reduced quarterly dividend..." and not "Reduced annual dividend..." as previously stated. The corrected release is as follows: - Completed $835 Million in Dispositions in 2024, Surpassing High-End of Increased Guidance - Reduced Net Debt by $734 million in 2024; Improved Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA to 7.6x - Company Meets and Exceeds its Full-Year 2024 Earnings Guidance - Recently Announced $1.8 Billion Multi-Tenant Portfolio Sale Would Significantly Reduce Leverage and Improve Liquidity Position - Proposed Transaction Would Create Pure-Play, Single-Tenant Net Lease Company with Enhanced Portfolio Metrics - Company Initiates Opportunistic $300 Million Share Repurchase Program Advertisement NEW YORK, Feb. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Net Lease, Inc. (NYSE: GNL) ("GNL” or the "Company”), an internally managed real estate investment trust that focuses on acquiring and managing a globally diversified portfolio of strategically-located commercial real estate properties, announced today its financial and operating results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2024. Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Highlights Revenue was $199.1 million in fourth quarter 2024 compared to $206.7 million in fourth quarter 2023, primarily as a result of $835 million of dispositions closed throughout the year Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $17.5 million in fourth quarter 2024, compared to $59.5 million in fourth quarter 2023 Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO”) was $68.5 million, or $0.30 per share, in fourth quarter 2024, compared to $48.3 million, or $0.21 per share, in fourth quarter 2023 Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO”) was $78.3 million , or $0.34 per share, in fourth quarter 2024, compared to $71.7 million, or $0.31 per share, in fourth quarter 2023; full-year 2024 AFFO was $303.8 million, or $1.32 per share Closed $835 million of dispositions in 2024 at a cash cap rate of 7.1% with a weighted average lease term of 4.9 years Reduced net debt by $734 million in 2024, improving Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA from 8.4x to 7.6x Exceeded projected cost synergies, reaching $85.0 million versus the expected $75.0 million, highlighting the Company's successful integration efforts and ability to drive value through strategic initiatives Increased portfolio occupancy from 93% as of the end of first quarter 2024 to 97% as of the end of the fourth quarter of 2024 Leased 1.2 million square feet across the portfolio, resulting in nearly $17.0 million of new straight-line rent Renewal leasing spread of 6.8% with a weighted average lease term of 9.7 years; new leases completed in the quarter had a weighted average lease term of 6.5 years Weighted average annual rent increase of 1.3% provides organic rental growth, excluding 14.8% of the portfolio with CPI linked leases that have historically experienced significantly higher rental increase Sector-leading 61% of annualized straight-line rent comes from investment-grade or implied investment-grade tenants Multi-Tenant Portfolio Sale Entered into a binding agreement to sell its multi-tenant portfolio of 100 non-core properties for approximately $1.8 billion This strategic transaction would accelerate GNL's disposition initiative and position the Company for sustained growth and value creation as a pure-play, single-tenant net lease company "We are incredibly proud of our achievements at GNL in 2024 and even more excited about what lies ahead,” stated Michael Weil, CEO of GNL. "The sale of our multi-tenant portfolio would mark a pivotal moment, reinforcing the strong momentum we have built. This transaction would reshape GNL into a pure-play, single-tenant net lease company, eliminating the operational complexities, G&A expenses and capital expenditures tied to multi-tenant retail properties. More importantly, it would accelerate our deleveraging strategy and fortify our balance sheet. This strategic transformation, including the recently announced share repurchase program, underscores our long-term vision, reinforcing our commitment to prudent management, sustainable growth and driving meaningful shareholder value.” Advertisement Full Year 2025 Guidance and Dividend Update The Company is establishing initial 2025 guidance, which is contingent on the sale of our multi-tenant portfolio with respect to AFFO and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA. AFFO per share range of $0.90 to $0.96 Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA range of 6.5x to 7.1x Reduced quarterly dividend to $0.190 per share of common stock beginning with the dividend expected to be declared in April 2025 which would generate $78 million in incremental annual cash flow Summary Fourth Quarter 2024 Results Advertisement Three Months Ended December 31, (In thousands, except per share data) Revenue from tenants Net loss attributable to common stockholders Net loss per diluted common share NAREIT defined FFO attributable to common stockholders NAREIT defined FFO per diluted common share Core FFO attributable to common stockholders Core FFO per diluted common share AFFO attributable to common stockholders AFFO per diluted common share Property Portfolio At December 31, 2024, the Company's portfolio consisted of 1,121 net leased properties located in ten countries and territories and comprised of 60.7 million rentable square feet. The Company operates in four reportable segments: (1) Industrial & Distribution, (2) Multi-Tenant Retail, (3) Single-Tenant Retail and (4) Office. The real estate portfolio metrics include: Advertisement 97% leased with a remaining weighted-average lease term of 6.2 years 81% of the portfolio contains contractual rent increases based on annualized straight-line rent 61% of portfolio annualized straight-line rent derived from investment grade and implied investment grade rated tenants 80% U.S. and Canada, 20% Europe (based on annualized straight-line rent) 34% Industrial & Distribution, 28% Multi-Tenant Retail, 21% Single-Tenant Retail and 17% Office (based on an annualized straight-line rent) Capital Structure and Liquidity Resources As of December 31, 2024, the Company had liquidity of $492.2 million and $460.0 million of capacity under the Company's revolving credit facility. The Company had net debt of $4.6 billion , including $2.3 billion of mortgage debt. As of December 31, 2024, the percentage of debt that is fixed rate (including variable rate debt fixed with swaps) was 91%, compared to approximately 80% as of December 31, 2023. The Company's total combined debt had a weighted average interest rate of 4.8% resulting in an interest coverage ratio of 2.5 times . Weighted average debt maturity was 3.0 years as of December 31, 2024 as compared to 3.2 years as of December 31, 2023. Advertisement Footnotes/Definitions While we consider AFFO a useful indicator of our performance, we do not consider AFFO as an alternative to net income (loss) or as a measure of liquidity. Furthermore, other REITs may define AFFO differently than we do. Projected AFFO per share data included in this release is for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon as indicative of future dividends or as a measure of future liquidity. AFFO for the fourth quarter 2024 also contains a number of adjustments for items that the Company believes were non-recurring, one-time items including adjustments for items that were settled in cash such as merger and proxy related expenses. Includes the collection of $4.5 million in past-due funds from Children of America and approximately $3.0 million in termination fees. As used herein, "Investment Grade Rating” includes both actual investment grade ratings of the tenant or guarantor, if available, or implied investment grade. Implied Investment Grade may include actual ratings of tenant parent, guarantor parent (regardless of whether or not the parent has guaranteed the tenant's obligation under the lease) or by using a proprietary Moody's analytical tool, which generates an implied rating by measuring a company's probability of default. The term "parent” for these purposes includes any entity, including any governmental entity, owning more than 50% of the voting stock in a tenant. Ratings information is as of December 31, 2024. Comprised of 31.4% leased to tenants with an actual investment grade rating and 29.1% leased to tenants with an Implied Investment Grade rating based on annualized cash rent as of December 31, 2024. We do not provide guidance on net income. We only provide guidance on AFFO per share and our Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio and do not provide reconciliations of this forward-looking non-GAAP guidance to net income per share or our debt to net income due to the inherent difficulty in quantifying certain items necessary to provide such reconciliations as a result of their unknown effect, timing and potential significance. Examples of such items include impairment of assets, gains and losses from sales of assets, and depreciation and amortization from new acquisitions and other non-recurring expenses. Weighted-average remaining lease term in years is based on square feet as of December 31, 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not sell any shares of Common Stock or Series B Preferred Stock through its Common Stock or Series B Preferred Stock under its "at-the-market” programs. Comprised of the principal amount of GNL's outstanding debt totaling $4.7 billion less cash and cash equivalents totaling $159.7 million, as of December 31, 2024. The interest coverage ratio is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA for the applicable quarter by cash paid for interest (calculated based on the interest expense less non-cash portion of interest expense and amortization of mortgage (discount) premium, net). Management believes that interest coverage ratio is a useful supplemental measure of our ability to service our debt obligations. Adjusted EBITDA and cash paid for interest are Non-GAAP metrics and are reconciled below.
