Paul H. McDowell: Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us on Orion Properties' 2025 Year-End Earnings Call. As recently announced, Orion has begun a strategic options review process as management and the board of directors continue to explore pathways to unlock value for our shareholders. Since this process is in the early stages, we will focus today's call on our operating performance and the tremendous progress we made further stabilizing the portfolio and executing our business plan during 2025, which has now positioned us for Core FFO earnings growth in 2026 and beyond. Starting with leasing. We completed over 900,000 square feet of leasing in 2025 on top of the 1.1 million square feet we leased in 2024, reflecting an improving market backdrop.

Paul H. McDowell: We also signed an additional 183,000 sq ft after year-end. These are meaningful volumes, particularly given the reduced size of our portfolio and have really moved the needle to enhance the quality and stability of our lease roll. One critical metric to measure our success is weighted average lease term or WALT, which averaged nearly 10 years on new leases signed in 2025. This is nearly double our portfolio average WALT. Overall, the average WALT for all leasing activity in 2025 was 7.5 years, which continues to move in the right direction and is approaching 6 years for the total portfolio.

Paul H. McDowell: Cash rent spreads on Q4 renewals were up for the third straight quarter at 12.8%, though overall, 2025 rent spreads remained volatile and were down 7.1% for the year, but were up an average of 3.7% when comparing ending rents in the current term versus ending rents in the renewal term. Importantly, our 2025 leasing momentum and non-core dispositions translated into a 600 basis point improvement in our lease rate year-over-year to over 80% at year-end, and a 500 basis point improvement in our occupancy rate to 78.7% at year-end. Equally significant, our lease rollover profile has improved. We entered 2026 with scheduled lease expirations totaling just $11.4 million of annualized base rent in 2026.

Equally significant, our lease rollover profile has improved. We entered 2026 with scheduled lease expirations totaling just $11.4 million of annualized base rent in 2026.

Paul H. McDowell: This is relative to the nearly $16.2 million of annualized base rent that was scheduled to expire in 2025 and $39.4 million in 2024. This positions us to drive further occupancy gains and stabilize revenues as we continue to lease, sell vacant properties, and selectively recycle capital into new cash flowing assets throughout this year and into next. Leasing momentum remains constructive so far in 2026. Our pipeline is robust, and we have over 1 million sq ft in either discussion or documentation stages, which includes several full building leases as well as longer duration renewals and new leases with terms materially greater than the average of our portfolio. Our accelerating portfolio improvement through increased disposition activity was another key story for the year.

Paul H. McDowell: During 2025, we sold 10 properties totaling more than 960,000 sq ft for approximately $81 million of gross proceeds, which included 2 vacant traditional office properties and 1 stabilized traditional office property sold in Q4 for $32 million. Subsequent to year-end, we sold 2 more vacant properties in Bedford, Massachusetts, and Malvern, Pennsylvania, totaling an additional 516,000 sq ft for over $13 million and are under contract to sell additional non-core properties for gross proceeds of roughly $36 million in the near term, including the 37.4 acres Deerfield, Illinois, property, where we completed the demolition of the 6 buildings formerly leased to Walgreens during Q4.

Paul H. McDowell: While the per sq ft price of these sales varied from $17 per sq ft to $216 per sq ft, our focus was on selling properties where we felt the re-leasing prospects did not outweigh the burden of continuing to carry them. These sale transactions will substantially reduce the estimated carry costs associated with these vacant properties by a combined $10.3 million annually. Our 2025 and near-term dispositions will generate a total of roughly $130 million, which has allowed us to maintain reasonable debt levels while still funding vital tenant improvement allowances, leasing commissions, and other capital expenditures to support our strong leasing activity.

Paul H. McDowell: We are also actively evaluating opportunities to recycle a modest percentage of these proceeds into acquisitions as we continue to shift our portfolio concentration away from traditional suburban office properties and toward Dedicated Use Assets or DUAs, where our tenants perform work that cannot be replicated from home or relocated to a generic office setting. These property types include medical, lab, R&D, flex, and government properties, all of which we already own. Our experience is that these assets tend to exhibit stronger renewal trends, higher tenant investment, and more durable cash flows. A terrific example of this strategy is the Barilla Americas headquarters building we just purchased at the end of last week in Northbrook, Illinois. In addition to serving as Barilla's headquarters, the building also houses their sole test kitchen and R&D facility in the US.

Paul H. McDowell: Worldwide, the Barilla Group is the world's largest maker of pasta, and their pasta and sauces are a familiar sight on US grocery shelves. The 75,000 sq ft building is subject to a 10.8-year lease with current net rents at approximately $15.30 per sq ft and growing 2.5% annually. We bought the property for $15 million, equating to a going-in cash capitalization rate of 8.1% and an average capitalization rate over the approximately 11-year lease term of 9%. At year-end, approximately 35.8% of our portfolio by annualized base rent consisted of Dedicated Use Assets versus 31.8% at the end of 2024. We expect this percentage will continue to increase over time through disposition activity and targeted acquisitions.

Paul H. McDowell: We recognize as a small cap REIT that G&A expense is a very important consideration. We remain disciplined on expenses at the corporate level. In 2025 and early 2026, we reduced headcount by more than 10%, including at the executive and senior vice president levels, and managed controllable G&A. We estimate these initiatives will generate about $1.8 million of annualized savings. These efforts are, however, offset by inevitable inflation, expected increased accounting fees associated with SOX 404 internal control audit requirements beginning in 2026 for us. Legal and other expenses associated with managing an activist investor. Turning very briefly to the balance sheet, as Gavin will give more detail in his remarks.

These efforts are, however, offset by inevitable inflation. Expected increased accounting fees associated with SOX 404 internal control audit requirements will begin in 2026 for us.

Paul H. McDowell: In February, we were able to deal with both our major debt maturities that had been scheduled to come due within the next year. First, with the support of our existing lenders, we entered into a new $215 million secured revolving facility, which will mature in February 2029, inclusive of 2 6-month extension options. Second, we extended our existing $355 million CMBS loan by 3 and a half years to August 2030, inclusive of 2 extension options totaling 18 months. These very significant achievements give us the financial flexibility and term to continue to execute on our business plan. A final note on our strategic options process.

Paul H. McDowell: While we have increasing confidence in our standalone prospects, over the past 3 years, as we have consistently disclosed, management and the board have devoted time to considering avenues for Orion to potentially pursue in addition to our business plan. Our ongoing public strategic options review process will provide further opportunity to consider with our board and our financial advisors what could be a range of potential strategic alternatives to maximize stockholder value. As we've said before, we remain very open to pursuing any actionable proposals. To sum up, the progress we've made over the past 4 years, and which progress accelerated in 2025, has materially de-risked and stabilized our portfolio, and we are finally set for meaningful growth from a Core FFO standpoint over the next several years.

Paul H. McDowell: Our priorities in 2026 remain: improve portfolio quality, lengthen WALT, renew tenants, and fill vacant space, reduce risk, lower expenses, prudently manage leverage, and position Orion with a more stable and durable earnings profile. We believe these are the right steps to unlock long-term value, which will make Orion attractive to investors and potential strategic partners alike. With that, I'll turn the call over to Gavin.

Gavin B. Brandon: The increase in CapEx in 2025 was driven by completion of landlord and tenant improvement work related to the acceleration in our leasing activity. As we have previously discussed, CapEx timing is dependent on when leases are executed and work is completed on leased properties. We expect to allocate more capital to CapEx over time as leases roll and new and existing tenants draw upon their tenant improvement allowances. Our net debt to full year adjusted EBITDA was a relatively conservative 6.8x at year-end, and on a modified basis, net of restricted cash was approximately 6.2x.

Brandon: As of 31 December 2025, and as adjusted for our new secured $215 million revolver, we had total liquidity of $145.9 million, including $22.9 million of cash and cash equivalents, and $123 million of available revolver capacity. We also had $39.9 million of restricted cash, including our pro rata share of the joint venture's restricted cash. Orion continues to manage leverage while maintaining significant liquidity to support our ongoing leasing efforts and provide the financial flexibility needed to execute on our business plan for the next several years. Since our spin, we have repaid a net $173 million of outstanding debt as of year-end while supporting our current business plan.

Gavin B. Brandon: As Paul mentioned, on 18 February, we entered into a credit agreement for a new senior secured credit facility revolver, which refinances our original credit facility revolver. The new credit facility revolver extends maturity date until February 2029, including 2 6-month borrower extension options. It reduces the lender's commitment to $215 million to more closely align with our business plan, reduces the interest rate margin on our borrowings by 50 basis points to SOFR plus 2.75%, and eliminates the 10 basis point SOFR adjustment, which will help to lower future interest expense. As of 5 March 2026, we had $127 million outstanding and $88 million of borrowing capacity under our new credit facility revolver.

The new credit facility revolver extends maturity date until February 2029, including 2 6-month borrower extension options. It reduces the lender's commitment to $215 million to more closely align with our business plan, reduces the interest rate margin on our borrowings by 50 basis points to SOFR plus 2.75%, and eliminates the 10 basis point SOFR adjustment, which will help to lower future interest expense. As of 5 March 2026, we had $127 million outstanding and $88 million of borrowing capacity under our new credit facility revolver.

Brandon: We appreciate the continued support from our lending group and the timeliness of executing the credit agreement prior to our Form 10-K filing, which alleviated any accounting disclosures with respect to near term debt maturities. On 17 February, we amended our CMBS loan. The loan modification agreement extends maturity date by two years to February 2029, subject to two borrower extension options for a total of 18 months until August 2030. During this time, the fixed interest rate on the CMBS loan of 4.971% will remain unchanged, and excess cash flows after payment of interest and property operating expenses will be swept by the lender to be applied to a combination of prepaying the outstanding principal balance of the CMBS loan and funding reserves, which we can access principally for capital expenditures.

Gavin B. Brandon: Due to the uncertainties regarding the Arch Street joint venture investments, as of 31 December 2025, we reduced the carrying value of our investment to zero and recorded a loan loss reserve against our member loan to the Arch Street joint venture.

Paul H. McDowell: Turning to our 2026 outlook. As previewed last quarter, 2025 represented a trough for our Core FFO, excluding lease related termination income, as our recent leasing and capital initiatives begin to translate into improved recurring earnings power over 2026 and beyond. Core FFO for the year is expected to range from $0.69 to $0.76 per diluted share. As a reminder, Core FFO for 2025 would have been $0.69, excluding $0.09 of lease termination income. G&A is expected to range from $19.8 to 20.8 million. Excluding non-cash compensation, we expect 2026 G&A will be in line or slightly better than 2025.

Mitch Germain: Thank you. It seems like your leasing pipeline is almost 2 times higher relative to last quarter. Is that just an overall conviction that you're seeing in office leasing? Is it really kind of the tide really turning a bit more positively here?

Uh, thank you. Um, what is it? It seems like you're leasing pipelines almost two times higher.

Paul H. McDowell: Good morning, Mitch. I think it's probably a little bit of both, frankly. You know, we have a, you know, our portfolio is not very big, so the numbers can move pretty dramatically if we start to get some leasing momentum on one or two properties, which is exactly the case that's occurred from last quarter to this quarter. And I would characterize that leasing momentum that we've gotten is as a result of the market improving somewhat. I think it's a bit of both. I, you know, I would, you know, I would reemphasize that the number may be volatile quarter-over-quarter.

Uh, good morning, Mitch. Um, I think it's probably a little bit of both, frankly. Um, you know, we have a—you know, our portfolio is not very big, so...

The numbers can move pretty dramatically, if we start to get some leasing momentum on 1 or 2 properties, which is exactly the case, uh, that's occurred from last quarter to this quarter. Um, and then and I would characterize that leasing momentum that we've gotten is as a result of the market improving somewhat. So I think it's a bit of both. But I, you know, I would, you know, I would re-emphasize that the number may be volatile quarter over quarter.

Mitch Germain: From a historical context, I know that, what is that, three, four years for you guys. Like, when you look at your leasing pipeline and compare that to the success rate that you've had, you know, I don't know, maybe have you thought about, like, what the percentage is that you've seen historically, in your ability to, you know, take the pipeline into a lease?

Paul H. McDowell: We haven't calculated that specifically. I will tell you, Mitch, that our success rate has improved very significantly over the past two years. I think, you know, the first, in 2023, as you might remember, we only leased 230,000 sq ft of space, and we didn't have any new leases. You know, in 2024 we did 1.1 million sq ft, and in 2025 we did 900,000 sq ft and 183,000 sq ft so far this year with a pretty strong pipeline. I would say that, you know, our ability to turn inquiry into signed leases has really improved a lot.

We have we haven't calculated that specifically. Um but I will tell you Mitch that um our success rate has improved, very significantly over the past 2 years. I think, you know, the first um, in 2023, as you might remember, we only least 230,000 square feet of space, and we didn't have any new leases and, you know, last year, we did 1.5 in 24, we did 1.1 million square feet. And in 25, we did 900,000 square feet and 183,000 square feet so far this year with a pretty strong pipeline. So, I would say that, you know, we're our

Mitch Germain: That's helpful. Last one for me. The Barilla transaction, maybe, you know, I don't know, was that a broker that brought it to you? Was it a relationship?

You know, maybe what percentage of the asset is office versus, you know, non-traditional or more like industrial space? If you can provide some context there.

Paul H. McDowell: Sure. Well, the transaction came to us through the, you know, it was brokered. It was a marketed transaction. You know, we saw it as well as other market participants. Stephanie Peacher, who works for us, she's the one who does acquisitions, and so she keeps a close eye on the market, and so she brought that in from the brokerage community. The property itself contains the test kitchens and R&D facilities for the Barilla operations here in North America and South America as well. Very important. From a percentage perspective, about half roughly is their test in R&D and half is office.

Matthew Erdner: Hey, good morning, guys, and thanks for taking the question. You know, it's good to see you guys back in the market acquiring properties. You know, how should we think about, you know, the pace of the remaining, I guess, vacant properties being disposed of throughout the year? Then, you know, what should we look for you guys to kind of, you know, go out and acquire more properties?

And then, you know, what should we look for for you guys to kind of, you know, go out and acquire more properties?

Paul H. McDowell: Yeah, that's a great question. We, you know, on the vacant property side, it's important to note that, you know, we had a huge amount of activity in 2025. Obviously selling down 10 properties in 2025 and then 2 additional vacant properties in the beginning of 2026. We have pending, you know, a couple of additional sales, including our vacant land in Illinois, in Deerfield, Illinois. With respect to the pace of vacant sales in the future, you know, we don't have that much vacancy left, but as vacancy comes online, we are gonna take a hard look, and we'll make a judgment about whether or not we sell those properties or whether we hold them for lease up.

Um, and then we have pending, you know, a couple of additional sales including our vacant land in um,

In Illinois, in Deerfield, Illinois. Um,

Paul H. McDowell: You know, some of the vacancy that we have now, we feel pretty confident about our ability to lease it up, so that's the primary focus. With respect to acquisitions, you know, we've been very judicious. This is only our second acquisition since the spin. We do wanna recycle capital. When we have capital recycled from sale of either vacant properties or stabilized properties, both of which we did last year, we look at that capital, and we can allocate it towards debt repayment. We can allocate it towards our existing asset base for tenant improvements and leasing commissions and building improvements and the like. We can allocate it towards acquisitions, all of which we expect to do during the course of this year.

Now we feel pretty confident about our ability to lease it up. So that's the primary focus.

With respect to acquisitions, you know, we've been very judicious. This is only our second acquisition since the spin.

Matthew Erdner: Got it. That's very helpful. Then, you know, I guess just looking at the upcoming lease maturities, you know, looks like through 2028, there's a little under 46% that's scheduled to roll over. You know, what kind of opportunities does this present to you guys, you know, in terms of being able to go out there and kinda grow these cash spreads and, you know, generate that FFO growth?

You know, what kind of opportunity does this present to you guys um you know, in terms of being able to go out there and kind of grow these cash spreads and you know, generate that ffo growth

Paul H. McDowell: Well, I think, you know, we do expect Core FFO to grow meaningfully in the coming years, you know, as the portfolio stabilizes and as we rent stuff up. We've had, I would characterize it, which is, I think, reflective of the broader market as a mixed renewal rent increases or decreases. You know, sometimes, market requires us to lower rents for renewal because that's just what the market will bear. As we've seen at the end of last year, where we had 3 quarters in a, in a row of increases in renewal rents, you know, we hope that continues into 2026 and 2027 as the market gradually recovers.
