SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / May 15, 2023 / Presidio Property Trust, Inc. (Nasdaq:SQFT, SQFTP) (the "Company"), an internally managed, diversified real estate investment trust ("REIT"), today reported earnings for its quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Quarter Ended March 31, 2023, Financial Results

Net loss attributable to the Company's common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was approximately $(1,530,988), or $(0.13) per basic and diluted share, compared to a net income of approximately $(3,824,053), or $(0.32) per basic and diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The change in net income attributable to the Company's common stockholders was a result of:

		A decrease in Series A Warrant Dividends of approximately $2.5 million due to a large dividend payment in Q1 2022 and not in Q1 2023.
		Rental revenue decreased by about 11.5% from Q1 2022 compared to Q1 2023. This was mainly related to the sale of the World Plaza building in March of 2022. The Company has not yet invested in another commercial building that would drive comparable rental revenue. Additionally, a major tenant lease in our Colorado property expired on December 31, 2023, and only 20% of the space was released during the first quarter of 2023. The Company is expecting increases in rental revenue with continued leasing efforts and has already entered into a lease agreement with KLJ Engineering LLC for approximately 33,000 square feet of space in the Grand Pacific Building, with an expected start date in November of 2023.
		Preferred Stock Series D dividends totaled approximately $0.5 million in Q1 2023, which is similar to Q1 2022.

FFO (non-GAAP) for the three months ended March 31, 2022, increased by approximately $2.5 million to approximately $(228,914) from $(2,812,659) for the three months ended March 31, 2022. 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 increased by about $110,000, from approximately $(75,000) in the three months ended March 31, 2022, to approximately $32,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Acquisitions and Dispositions for 2022

• The Company acquired nine model home properties and leased them back to the homebuilders under triple net leases during the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The purchase price for these properties was $5 million. The purchase price consisted of cash payments of $0.7 million and mortgage notes of $1.7 million.
• The Company sold three model home properties for approximately $1.6 million and recognized a gain of approximately $0.4 million.

Dividends paid during the first three quarters of 2022:

• During the first quarter of 2023, the Company paid a dividend of $0.022 per share to shareholders of Series A common stock.
• During 2022, the Company paid three monthly dividends in the total amount of $0.58593 per share to shareholders of Series D preferred stock.

Presidio is an internally managed, diversified REIT with holdings in model home properties which are triple-net leased to homebuilders, office, industrial, and retail properties.

Our office, industrial and retail properties are located primarily in Colorado, with properties also located in Maryland, North Dakota, Texas, and Southern California.

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.
