Second Quarter Activity:

• Collected 100% of cash rents: Collected 100% of cash rents due during April, May, and June;

• Acquired properties: Purchased two fully-occupied facilities, with an aggregate of 519,093 square feet of rental space, for $79.3 million, at a weighted average cap rate of 8.88%;

• Sold properties: Sold one non-core office property as part of our capital recycling strategy for $5.1 million and completed the sale transaction on one non-core industrial property for $18.5 million;

• Renewed space: Renewed 55,308 square feet with a remaining lease term of 0.8 years at one of our properties;

• Issued common stock under ATM Program: Issued 750,426 shares of common stock under our at-the-market (“ATM”) program for net proceeds of $10.4 million;

• Issued Series F Preferred Stock: Issued 2,200 shares of our Series F Preferred Stock for net proceeds of $0.1 million;

• Repaid debt: Repaid $7.2 million in variable rate mortgage debt at an interest rate of SOFR + 2.25%; and

• Paid distributions: Paid monthly cash distributions for the quarter totaling $0.30 per share on our common stock and Non-controlling OP Units, $0.414063 per share on our Series E Preferred Stock, $0.375 per share on our Series F Preferred Stock, $0.375 per share on our Series G Preferred Stock, and $0.2625 per share on our senior common stock.

Second Quarter 2025 Results: Core FFO available to common shareholders and Non-controlling OP Unitholders for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $16.1 million, a 5.4% increase when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, equaling $0.35 per share. Core FFO increased primarily due to higher revenues from year to date acquisitions and a lower net incentive fee, partially offset by an increase in interest expense from higher outstanding variable rate debt and higher general and administrative expenses.

Net income available to common stockholders and Non-controlling OP Unitholders for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $1.5 million, or $0.03 per share, compared to net income available to common stockholders and Non-controlling OP Unitholders for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $1.9 million, or $0.04 per share. In the Summary Information table above, we provide a reconciliation of Core FFO to net income (which we believe is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Core FFO) for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025, a computation of basic and diluted Core FFO per weighted average share of common stock and Non-controlling OP Unit, and basic and diluted net income per weighted average share of common stock and Non-controlling OP Unit.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter:

• Collected 100% of July cash rents: Collected 100% of cash rents due in July;

• Leased or renewed space: Leased or renewed 143,844 square feet with remaining lease terms ranging from 5.3 to 11.4 years at two of our properties;

• Issued common stock under ATM Program: Issued 50,540 shares of common stock under our ATM program for net proceeds of $0.7 million; and

• Declared distributions: Declared monthly cash distributions for July, August, and September 2025, totaling $0.30 per share on our common stock and Non-controlling OP Units, $0.414063 per share on our Series E Preferred Stock, $0.375 per share on our Series F Preferred Stock, $0.375 per share on our Series G Preferred Stock, and $0.2625 per share on our senior common stock.

Comments from Gladstone Commercial’s President, Buzz Cooper: “Our financial results reflect consistent performance and stabilized revenues from our tremendous same store property occupancy, rent collection and growth, accretive real estate investments made during 2024 and 2025, our ability to renew tenants, and our deleveraging. We have continued our capital recycling program, whereby we have sold non-core assets and used the proceeds to de-lever our portfolio, as well as acquire properties in our target growth markets. We have successfully exited two non-core assets thus far in 2025, and we have additional non-core assets we anticipate selling over the next one to two years that we believe will result in capital gains. We will continue to opportunistically sell non-core assets and redeploy the proceeds into stronger target growth markets with a focus on industrial investment opportunities. While we expect to face challenges due to the lingering effects of the pandemic, significant inflation with a corresponding increase in interest rates, and the geo-political and economic issues arising from international wars, we feel strongly about the depth of our tenant credit underwriting. We have collected 100% of the first two quarters’ cash rents and 100% of July cash rents. We anticipate our tenants will successfully navigate the current economic climate and will be able to continue operating successfully when economic normalcy returns fully. Despite economic uncertainty, so far during 2025, we renewed or newly leased 266,861 square feet of property with six tenants. We are actively marketing our remaining vacant space and currently anticipate positive outcomes. We expect to continue to have access to the debt and equity markets, as necessary, for added liquidity. We believe our same store rents, which have increased by 2% annually in recent years, should continue to rise as we grow, and we will continue to primarily focus on investing in our target markets, with an emphasis on industrial properties and actively managing our portfolio.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

FFO: The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) developed FFO as a relative non-GAAP supplemental measure of operating performance of an equity REIT to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and impairment losses on property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of its performance or to cash flow from operations as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions. The Company believes that FFO per share provides investors with an additional context for evaluating its financial performance and as a supplemental measure to compare it to other REITs; however, comparisons of its FFO to the FFO of other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to potential differences in the application of the NAREIT definition used by such other REITs.

Core FFO: Core FFO is FFO adjusted for certain items that are not indicative of the results provided by the Company’s operating portfolio and affect the comparability of the Company’s period-over-period performance. These items include the adjustment for acquisition related expenses, gains or losses from early extinguishment of debt and any other non-recurring expense adjustments. Although the Company’s calculation of Core FFO differs from NAREIT’s definition of FFO and may not be comparable to that of other REITs, the Company believes it is a meaningful supplemental measure of its operating performance. Accordingly, Core FFO should be considered a supplement to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our performance.

The Company’s presentation of FFO, as defined by NAREIT, or presentation of Core FFO, does not represent cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of its performance or to cash flow from operations as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions.
