SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / March 28, 2023 / Presidio Property Trust, Inc. (NASDAQ:SQFT)(NASDAQ:SQFTP) (the "Company"), an internally managed, diversified real estate investment trust ("REIT"), today reported earnings for its year ended December 31, 2022.

"We are pleased to report on our 2022 earnings and company activity," said Jack Heilbron, Chief Executive Officer of Presidio. "2022 was a challenging year in the real estate markets, but our diversified nature helped us take advantage of homebuilder interest in our model home division. We also saw solid leasing activity on the commercial property side. Additionally, in 2022, we reached an agreement on the business combination of Murphy Canyon Acquisition Corp. with Conduit Pharmaceuticals, which we anticipate will result in additional Presidio shareholder value."

"In the fourth quarter of 2022, 11 office, retail, and industrial leases were signed totaling nearly 66,000 square feet. These leases are comprised of 4 new leases and 7 existing tenant renewals," noted Gary Katz, the Company's Chief Investment Officer. "During 2022, we signed 53 leases for nearly 224,000 square feet of space, split between 47% new leases and 53% renewals."

Quarter Ended December 31, 2022, Financial Results

Net loss attributable to the Company's common stockholders for the three months ended December 31, 2022, was approximately $(780,067), or $(0.07) per basic and diluted share, compared to a net income of approximately $(1,501,162), or $(0.13) per basic and diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The change in net income attributable to the Company's common stockholders was a result of:

FFO (non-GAAP) for the three months ended December 31, 2022, increased by approximately $70,000 to approximately $132,000 from $62,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2021. 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 $210,000, or by 26%, from approximately $808,000 in three months ended December 31, 2021, to approximately $597,000 in the three months ended December 31, 2022.

• The Company acquired 31 Model Home Properties and leased them back to the homebuilders under triple net leases during the year ended December 31, 2022. The purchase price for these properties was $15.6 million. The purchase price consisted of cash payments of $4.8 million and mortgage notes of $10.8 million.
• World Plaza, which was sold on March 11, 2022, for approximately $10.0 million and the Company recognized a loss of approximately $0.3 million.
• The Company disposed of 31 model homes for approximately $17.5 million and the Company recognized a gain of approximately $5.4 million.

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 also 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 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.
