2Q-2021 PORTFOLIO HIGHLIGHTS (3 months ended June 30, 2021)

●	Acquired 4 Controlled Environmental Agriculture (“CEA”) facilities in Colorado and Oklahoma totaling approximately 206,000 square feet of greenhouse and cultivation/processing space.
	○	Approximately $12.4 million was committed to these acquisitions, which includes the purchase price and development costs, but excludes transaction costs.
	○	Entered into 4 new long-term triple-net leases.
	○	Leasing activity is expected to generate straight-line annualized rent of approximately $2.3 million, representing more than an 18% unleveraged yield on invested capital.

1H-2021 PORTFOLIO HIGHLIGHTS (6 months ended June 30, 2021)

●	Grew the CEA portfolio by 8 properties, or approximately 317,000 square feet through accretive acquisitions, which should generate straight-line annualized rent of approximately $4.6 million, representing more than a 17% yield on invested capital.
●	Completed Rights Offering that generated approximately $37 million. Existing common stockholders were offered the right to purchase additional shares at $26.50.
●	Shelf Registration Statement filed and declared effective, which will provide the Trust with better access to capital sources.

Commenting on the 2021 second quarter and first half activities, David Lesser, Chief Executive Officer stated, “We continued to make significant progress on our external growth strategy during the first half of 2021. In addition to completing approximately $26 million of accretive acquisitions, we successfully completed an investor friendly Rights Offering, which generated approximately $37 million and allowed existing investors the opportunity to benefit from our attractive growth trajectory. This capital fueled our accretive acquisition strategy. To date, we have deployed approximately $20 million of the Rights Offerings proceeds into accretive acquisitions so we still have additional capital to deploy that should drive further growth including the potential to close on the previously announced acquisition in Michigan. In addition, we continue to explore non-dilutive capital sources to fund our continued growth while creating shareholder value.”

FORWARD CORE FFO PER SHARE GUIDANCE

Power REIT has now deployed approximately $20 million of the capital raised in its recently closed Rights Offering across several transactions. This leaves approximately $17 million to deploy. Assuming the full deployment of its remaining proceeds into additional acquisitions at an average 16% yield to common equity (i.e. a lower yield than recent transactions), the Trust estimates a forward Core FFO per share run rate of $3.24 as described in our most recently published Investor Presentation which is available at: www.pwreit.com/investors. However, it is important to understand that near-term quarterly results could be below this run-rate due to uncertainty of transaction timing and dilution from the additional shares issued pursuant to the Rights Offering that generated the available cash on Power REIT’s balance sheet for investment.

The following table provides a roadmap analysis for forward Core FFO per share:

Rights Offering Proceeds Net of Costs (est.)		$	36,568,291

Apotheke			1,813,893

Increase from Q4 2020			59	%

Mr. Lesser continued, “Our updated business plan that we put into motion in the second half of 2019 continues to drive substantial growth. Our Core FFO per Common Share for the six months ended June 30, 2021, increased approximately 102% year over year. This demonstrates our dynamic growth as a function of the attractive yields we can achieve with our strategic CEA investments coupled with our relatively small size which amplifies the impact of these transactions. With the current stock price at 36.46 and a forward Core FFO run rate of $3.24 per share, Power REIT trades at a 11.4 multiple. We believe our potential growth rate driven by acquisitions combined with a relatively low forward Core FFO multiple provides a compelling value proposition for investors. We have previously announced the potential acquisition of an approximately 565,000 square foot green house facility in Michigan. Assuming this transaction closes on terms with similar yields to our recent acquisitions and assuming no additional investment beyond the $18.5 million purchase price, Power REIT’s Forward Core FFO would grow to approximately $3.42. There can be assurance as to when or if this acquisition will occur. We have an active pipeline of acquisitions and hope to announce additional activity in the near future.”

DISTRIBUTIONS

For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Trust paid dividends of approximately $163,000 (or $0.484375 per share per quarter for a total of $1.9375 per share total) on Power REIT’s 7.75% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock.

Subsequent to the end of the second quarter in 2021, the Board of Trustees declared a cash dividend of $0.484375 per depository share on its 7.75% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, which equates to an annual dividend rate of $1.9375 per depository share. The dividend is payable on September 15, 2021, to stockholders of record as of August 15, 2021.

CAPITAL MARKETS ACTIVITY

On June 21, 2021, Power REIT had its shelf registration made effective by the SEC. This positions the Trust to efficiently access additional capital sources through a variety of potential common and preferred stock offerings.

On February 5, 2021, Power REIT closed on its Rights offering, generating proceeds of approximately $36.6 million of proceeds and issued an additional 1,383,394 common shares. Through this Offering, shareholders of record as of December 28, 2020 were offered the opportunity to purchase additional shares at $26.50 per share.

Cash and Cash Equivalents totaled approximately $28.8 million as of June 30, 2021 compared to $5.6 million as of December 31, 2020. The increase is the result of the capital raised in the Rights Offering offset by investment activity.

PORTFOLIO

Power REIT’s portfolio currently comprises:

	●	7 solar farm ground leases totaling 601 acres; and
	●	112 miles of railroad property.

POWER REIT’S INVESTMENT THESIS

Power REIT believes agricultural production is ripe for technological transformation and the industry is in the early stages of an agricultural venture capital boom that, among other things, will shift production for certain crops from traditional outdoor farms to Controlled Environment Agriculture “plant factories.” Since a significant portion of any given CEA enterprise is real estate, the Trust has identified a unique opportunity to participate in the upward trend of indoor agriculture.

CEA FOR CANNABIS

Power REIT is focused on investing in the cultivation and production side of the cannabis industry through the ownership of real estate. As such it is not directly in the cannabis business and also not even indirectly involved with facilities that sell cannabis directly to consumers. By serving as a landlord, Power REIT believes it can generate attractive risk adjusted returns related to the fast-growing cannabis industry, which is anticipated to offer a safer approach than investing directly in cannabis operating businesses.

CEA FOR FOOD

CEA for food production is widely adopted in parts of Europe and is becoming an increasingly competitive alternative to traditional farming for a variety of reasons. CEA caters to consumer desires for sustainable and locally grown products. Locally grown indoor produce will have a longer shelf life as the plants are healthier and also travel shorter distances thereby reducing food waste. In addition, a controlled environment produces high-quality pesticide free products that eliminates seasonality and provides highly predictable output that can be used to simplify the supply chain to the grocer’s shelf.

STATEMENT ON SUSTAINABILITY
Power REIT owns real estate related to infrastructure assets including properties for Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA Facilities), Renewable Energy and Transportation.

CEA Facilities, such as greenhouses, provide an extremely environmentally friendly solution, which consume approximately 70% less energy than indoor growing operations that do not benefit from “free” sunlight. CEA facilities use 90% less water than field grown plants, and all of Power REIT’s greenhouse properties operate without the use of pesticides and avoid agricultural runoff of fertilizers and pesticides. These facilities cultivate medical Cannabis, which has been recommended to help manage a myriad of medical symptoms, including seizures and spasms, multiple sclerosis, post-traumatic stress disorder, migraines, arthritis, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s.

Renewable Energy assets are comprised of land and infrastructure associated with utility scale solar farms. These projects produce power with the use of fossil fuels thereby lowering carbon emissions. The solar farms produce approximately 50,000,000 kWh of electricity annually which is enough to power approximately 4,600 home on a carbon free basis.

Transportation assets are comprised of land associated with a railroad, an environmentally friendly mode of bulk transportation.

ABOUT POWER REIT

Power REIT is a specialized real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns sustainable real estate related to infrastructure assets including properties for Controlled Environment Agriculture, Renewable Energy and Transportation. Power REIT is actively seeking to expand its real estate portfolio related to Controlled Environment Agriculture for the cultivation of food and cannabis.

Power REIT is focused on the “Triple Bottom Line” with a commitment to Profit, Planet and People.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This document may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are those that predict or describe future events or trends and that do not relate solely to historical matters. You can usually identify forward-looking statements as containing the words “believe,” “expect,” “will,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “would,” “should,” “project,” “plan,” “assume” or other similar expressions, or negatives of those expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. All statements contained in this document regarding Power REIT’s future strategy, future operations, projected financial position, estimated future revenues and annual run rate, projected costs, acquisition pipeline, future prospects and growth from potential investments, the future of Power REIT’s industries and results that might be obtained by pursuing management’s current or future objectives are forward-looking statements. While Power REIT believes these forward-looking statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on any such forward-looking statements, which are based on information available to us on the date of this release. These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations and assumptions from those set forth or implied by any forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among others, Power REIT’s ability to implement its future strategy and achieve the estimated future revenues, earnings, and Core FFO per share, as planned, Power REIT’s ability to complete future acquisitions and generate growth from the investments, as planned, Power REIT’s ability to maintain compliance with the NYSE listing requirements, and the other factors discussed in the Power REIT’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and Power REIT’s subsequent filings with the SEC, including subsequent periodic reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K. The information in this release is provided only as of the date of this release, and Power REIT undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this release on account of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This document contains supplemental financial measures that are not calculated pursuant to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), including the measure identified by us as Core Funds From Operations Available to Common Shares (“Core FFO”). Management believes that Core FFO is a useful supplemental measure of the Trust’s operating performance. Management believes that alternative measures of performance, such as net income computed under GAAP, or Funds From Operations computed in accordance with the definition used by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), include certain financial items that are not indicative of the results provided by the Trust’s asset portfolio and inappropriately affect the comparability of the Trust’s period-over-period performance. These items include non-recurring expenses, such as those incurred in connection with litigation, one-time upfront acquisition expenses that are not capitalized under ASC-805 and certain non-cash expenses, including non-cash, stock-based compensation expense. Therefore, management uses Core FFO and defines it as net income excluding such items. Management believes that, for the foregoing reasons, these adjustments to net income are appropriate. The Trust believes that Core FFO is a useful supplemental measure for the investing community to employ, including when comparing the Trust to other REITs that disclose similarly adjusted FFO figures, and when analyzing changes in the Trust’s performance over time. Readers are cautioned that other REITs may use different adjustments to their GAAP financial measures than we do, and that as a result the Trust’s Core FFO may not be comparable to the FFO measures used by other REITs or to other non-GAAP or GAAP financial measures used by REITs or other companies.

RECONCILIATION NET INCOME TO CORE FFO

Management believes that Core FFO is a useful supplemental measure of the Trust’s operating performance. Management believes that alternative measures of performance, such as net income computed 56 under GAAP, or Funds From Operations computed in accordance with the definition used by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), include certain financial items that are not indicative of the results provided by the Trust’s asset portfolio and inappropriately affect the comparability of the Trust’s period-over-period performance. These items include non-recurring expenses, such as those incurred in connection with litigation, one-time upfront acquisition expenses that are not capitalized under ASC-805 and certain non-cash expenses, including stock-based compensation expense amortization and certain up front financing costs. Therefore, management uses Core FFO and defines it as net income excluding such items. Management believes that, for the foregoing reasons, these adjustments to net income are appropriate. The Trust believes that Core FFO is a useful supplemental measure for the investing community to employ, including when comparing the Trust to other REITs that disclose similarly adjusted FFO figures, and when analyzing changes in the Trust’s performance over time. Readers are cautioned that other REITs may use different adjustments to their GAAP financial measures than Power REIT do, and that as a result, the Trust’s Core FFO may not be comparable to the FFO measures used by other REITs or to other non-GAAP or GAAP financial measures used by REITs or other companies.
