Star Holdings is a Maryland statutory trust (the "Company," "Star Holdings," "we" or "us") that was spun-off from iStar Inc. ("iStar") on March 31, 2023 (the Spin-Off"). The Company was formed to hold and seek to monetize iStar's legacy non-ground lease assets. The Company operates its business as one segment that focuses on realizing value for shareholders primarily by generating cash flows through active asset management and sales of its existing loans, operating properties and land and development properties. The Company expects to make certain investments to complete its development assets, but it does not currently expect to make material new investments or acquire material new assets. The Company's short-term and long-term liquidity requirements include capital expenditures on its development projects, debt service, management fees and expense reimbursements payable to its Manager (refer to Note 7) and operating expenses, among others. The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements through any cash flows from operations, proceeds from asset sales, borrowings on available debt facilities (refer to Note 9) and unrestricted cash. The Company expects to meet its long-term liquidity requirements through any cash flows from operations and proceeds from asset sales.

#### Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
**Basis of Presentation**—The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. These unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the combined and consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "2024 Annual Report") for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in the Company's consolidated financial statements and the related notes to conform to the current period presentation.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Such operating results may not be indicative of the expected results for any other interim periods or the entire year.

**Dispositions—**During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company sold land parcels and residential lots and units and recognized land development revenue of $26.6 million and $15.7 million, respectively, and land development cost of sales of $18.5 million and $19.0 million, respectively, from its land and development portfolio. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company sold land parcels and residential lots and units and recognized land development revenue of $31.8 million and $32.3 million, respectively, and land development cost of sales of $25.3 million and $31.4 million, respectively, from its land and development portfolio.

In December 2023, the Company transferred the ownership interests in a subsidiary land owner to a third-party venture (the "Venture") for its development and construction of a multifamily project in Asbury Park, NJ (the "Project"). In connection with this transfer, the Company (i) provided the Venture with a $10.6 million mezzanine loan that was fully funded at closing and is secured by the ownership interests in the subsidiary land owner and matures in June 2033; and (ii) provided a completion and carry guaranty on the Venture's $80.0 million senior construction mortgage loan (refer to Note 9) with a third-party lender in return for a fee. The Company is a non-member manager of the Venture and is entitled to certain fees, but otherwise has no expected member-related economics. Until the mezzanine loan is repaid and the guaranties are released, the Company controls all decision-making of the Venture. The Venture is responsible for the funding and performance of all development and construction activities and the Company is not obligated to provide any capital contributions to the Venture. At closing, the third-party members provided $21.0 million in cash capital contributions to the Venture, exclusive of a $3.0 million deferred profits interest, which combined represent the total equity capitalization.

The Company determined that the Venture (and its consolidated subsidiaries developing the Project) is a VIE for which the Company is the primary beneficiary and thus consolidated it under ASC 810. As a result, for accounting purposes, the Project was recorded on the Company's consolidated financial statements and the mezzanine loan eliminates in consolidation. The $21.0 million in third-party cash capital contributions to the Venture represents noncontrolling interests in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company expects this consolidation treatment to continue until the mezzanine loan is paid in full by the Venture and the Company's senior loan guaranties are released by the lender.

**Credit Characteristics**—As part of the Company's process for monitoring the credit quality of its loans, it performs a quarterly loan portfolio assessment and assigns risk ratings to each of its performing loans. Risk ratings, which range from 1 (lower risk) to 5 (higher risk), are based on judgments which are inherently uncertain, and there can be no assurance that actual performance will be similar to current expectation. The Company designates loans as non-performing at such time as: (1) interest payments become 90 days delinquent; (2) the loan has a maturity default; or (3) management determines it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. All non-performing loans are placed on non-accrual status and income is only recognized in certain cases upon actual cash receipt.

#### Note 7—Other Investments
The Company's "other investments" is its investment in Safehold Inc. ("Safe"). Safe is a publicly-traded company that acquires, owns, manages, finances and capitalizes ground leases. Ground leases generally represent ownership of the land underlying commercial real estate projects that is net leased by the fee owner of the land to the owners/operators of the real estate projects built thereon ("Ground Leases"). As of June 30, 2025, the Company owned approximately 13.5 million shares, or 18.9%, of Safe's outstanding common stock.

As of June 30, 2025, the Company's investment in Safe had a market value of $210.4 million based on the closing price of $15.56 on June 30, 2025. The Company does not have significant influence over Safe and accounts for its investment in Safe as an equity investment under ASC 321 – Investments – Equity Securities ("ASC 321"), which requires that the Company adjust its investment in Safe to fair value through income at each reporting period. As such, the Company recognized an "Unrealized gain (loss) on equity investment" of ($42.7) million and ($17.7) million, respectively, in its consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 and ($39.5) million and ($55.6) million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

On March 31, 2023, the Company entered into the following agreements with Safe:

*Separation and Distribution Agreement*—The Separation and Distribution Agreement provides for, among other things, the principal corporate transactions required to effect the Spin-Off and provisions governing Star Holdings' relationship with Safe with respect to and following the Spin-Off. The Separation and Distribution Agreement includes provisions allocating assets and liabilities between Star Holdings and Safe and various post-closing covenants relating to, among other things, the treatment of the parties' insurance policies, information sharing and other operational matters. The Separation and Distribution Agreement includes a mutual release by Star Holdings, on the one hand, and Safe, on the other hand, of the other party from certain specified liabilities, as well as mutual indemnification covenants pursuant to which Star Holdings and Safe have agreed to indemnify each other from certain specified liabilities.

*Management Agreement*—The Company entered into the Management Agreement with Safehold Management Services Inc. (the "Manager"), a subsidiary of Safe. The Management Agreement requires the Manager to manage the Company's assets and its and its subsidiaries' day-to-day operations, subject to the supervision of Board of Trustees of the Company (the "Board"). Pursuant to the Management Agreement, the Manager is required to provide the Company with a management team, including a chief executive officer, a chief financial officer and a chief compliance officer, along with support personnel, to provide the management services to be provided by the Manager to the Company. The Manager does not assume any responsibility other than to render the services called for thereunder and is not responsible for any action of the Board in following or declining to follow its advice or recommendations.

The Management Agreement has an annual term that automatically renews on March 31 of each year. The Company pays a fixed cash management fee and reimburses the Manager for third party expenses incurred in connection with its services. The Company paid the Manager management fees of $25.0 million for the term ended March 31, 2024 and $15.0 million for the term ended March 31, 2025. The annual fee declines to $10.0 million and $7.5 million, respectively, in each of the following annual terms, and adjusts to 2.0% of the gross book value of the Company's assets, excluding the Safe Shares, thereafter. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $2.5 million and $3.8 million, respectively, of management fees to the Manager. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $6.3 million and $10.0 million, respectively, of management fees to the Manager.

The Management Agreement may be terminated by the Company without cause by not less than one hundred eighty days' written notice to the Manager upon the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the Company's independent trustees, provided, however, that if the date of termination occurs prior to the fourth anniversary of the Spin-Off, the termination will be subject to payment of the applicable termination fee to the Manager. The Company may also terminate the Management Agreement at any time, including during the initial term, with 30 days' prior written notice from the Company's board of trustees for "cause," as defined in the Management Agreement.

In the event of a termination without cause by the Company prior to the fourth anniversary of the Spin-Off, the Company will pay the Manager a termination fee of $55.0 million minus the aggregate amount of management fees actually paid to the Manager prior to the termination date. However, if the Company has completed the liquidation of its assets on or before the termination date, the termination fee will consist of any portion of the annual management fee that remained unpaid for the remainder of the then current annual term plus, if the termination date occurs on or before the third anniversary of the Spin-Off, the amount of the management fee that would have been payable for the next succeeding annual term, or if the termination date occurs after the third anniversary of the Spin-Off, zero.

In the event of a termination by the Manager based on a reduction in the amount of the Company's consolidated assets below designated thresholds, the Company will pay the Manager a termination fee of $5.0 million if the termination occurs in the third year plus the balance of any unpaid portion of the annual management fee for the applicable year.

On March 28, 2025, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into amendments to the Management Agreement, the Safe Credit Facility (refer to Note 9) and the Margin Loan Facility (refer to Note 9). The foregoing description of certain terms of the Management Agreement reflects the amendment to the Management Agreement which increased the management fee payable in year four of the contract from $5.0 million to $7.5 million and increased the termination fee payable by the Company in certain circumstances from $50.0 million to $55.0 million.

*Governance Agreement*—The Company and Safe entered into a governance agreement (the "Governance Agreement") in order to establish various arrangements and restrictions with respect to the governance of the Company and certain rights and restrictions with respect to the Safe Shares owned by the Company.

The Company and its subsidiaries are prohibited from transferring at any time any Safe Shares held by the Company or its subsidiaries to any person who is known by the Company or its subsidiaries to be an "Activist" or "Company Competitor" (as such terms are defined in the Governance Agreement), or to any group that, to the knowledge of the Company or its subsidiaries, includes as "Activist" or "Company Competitor," without first obtaining the Safe's prior written consent.

During a "restrictive period" which lasts until the earliest to occur of (i) the effective date on which Safe terminates the Management Agreement; or (ii) the date on which the Company beneficially own less than 7.5% of Safe's outstanding common stock and Safe is no longer the Company's external Manager; or (iii) a Change of Control of Safe (as defined in the Governance Agreement), the Company's or its directly or indirectly wholly owned subsidiaries are required to vote the Safe Shares in accordance with the recommendations of the board of directors of Safe. The Company has irrevocably designated and appointed the board of directors of Safe as its sole and exclusive attorney-in-fact and proxy with full power of substitution and re-substitution to exercise the voting power of the Company's shares of Safe in accordance with these requirements. The Company will also be subject to certain standstill agreements during the restrictive period. The terms of such standstill agreements will restrict the Company from making certain acquisitions of Safe securities, seeking representation on Safe's board of directors, participating in the solicitation of proxies or written consents of Safe shareholders, and taking other actions which could seek to influence or result in a change of control of Safe or cause or require Safe to make certain public announcements, except as permitted by the governance agreement or with the prior written consent of the independent directors of the board of directors of Safe.

*Registration Rights Agreement*—Under the Registration Rights Agreement, Safe has agreed to (i) register Star Holdings' shares of Safe common stock and the other registrable securities for resale by filing and maintaining a shelf registration statement; (ii) file a registration statement covering Star Holdings' shares of Safe common stock and other registrable securities pursuant to the demand right and (iii) allow Star Holdings to piggyback on certain other registration statements filed by Safe. Star Holdings may use the registration rights to sell its shares of Safe common stock in underwritten offerings, block trades and other methods of distribution. Star Holdings will be subject to certain suspension and lockup obligations. Star Holdings' registration rights will end, among other times, when it owns less than 2% of Safe's outstanding common stock and is able to sell all of the shares of Safe common stock pursuant to Rule 144(b) without restriction.

LLC, as calculation agent, and Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., as initial lender. The Margin Loan Facility is secured by a first priority pledge of the Safe Shares and has a principal balance of $87.5 million as of June 30, 2025.

#### Note 10—Commitments and Contingencies
**Commitments**—Future minimum lease obligations under non-cancelable operating leases as of June 30, 2025 are as follows ($ in thousands):<sup>(1)</sup>

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| 2025 (remaining six months) | $243 |
| 2026 | 486 |
| 2027 | 162 |

| Present value discount<sup>(1)</sup> | (26) |
| Lease liabilities | $865 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The lease liability equals the present value of the minimum rental payments due under the lease discounted at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company's incremental secured borrowing rate for similar collateral. For operating leases, lease liabilities were discounted at inception at the Company's weighted average incremental secured borrowing rate for similar collateral estimated to be 3.0% and the weighted average remaining lease term is 1.8 years.

**Legal Proceedings**—The Company and/or one or more of its subsidiaries is party to various pending litigation matters that are considered ordinary routine litigation incidental to the Company's business as a finance and investment company focused on the commercial real estate industry, including foreclosure-related proceedings. The Company believes it is not a party to, nor are any of its properties the subject of, any pending legal proceeding that would have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

#### Note 11—Risk Management
**Risk management**

In the normal course of its on-going business operations, the Company encounters economic risk. There are three main components of economic risk: interest rate risk, credit risk and market risk. The Company is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice at different points in time and potentially at different bases, than its interest-earning assets. Credit risk is the risk of default on the Company's lending investments or leases that result from a borrower's or tenant's inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk reflects changes in the value of loans and other lending investments due to changes in interest rates or other market factors, including the rate of prepayments of principal and the value of the collateral underlying loans, the valuation of real estate assets by the Company as well as changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

**Risk concentrations—**Concentrations of credit risks arise when a number of borrowers, tenants or investees related to the Company's investments are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographic region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations, including those to the Company, to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions.

All of the Company's real estate and assets collateralizing its loans receivable are located in the United States. As of June 30, 2025, the Company's portfolio contains concentrations in the following property types: entertainment/leisure, land and development, hotel, retail and the Safe Shares.

The Company underwrites the credit of prospective borrowers and tenants and often requires them to provide some form of credit support such as corporate guarantees, letters of credit and/or cash security deposits. Although the Company's loans and real estate assets are geographically diverse and the borrowers and tenants operate in a

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Star Holdings**

**Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)**

**(unaudited)**

variety of industries, to the extent the Company has a significant concentration of interest or operating lease revenues from any single borrower or tenant, the inability of that borrower or tenant to make its payment could have a material adverse effect on the Company. In addition, declines in the market price of Safe common stock could require the Company to post additional collateral or prepay some or all of the outstanding borrowings under the Margin Loan Facility.

#### Note 12—Equity
**Common Stock—**On March 31, 2023, in connection with the Spin-Off, iStar distributed 100% of the common shares of beneficial interest in the Company to holders of common stock of iStar ("iStar Common Stock") by way of a pro rata distribution of 0.153 common shares of the Company for each outstanding share of iStar Common Stock held on the record date of the distribution. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has one class of common stock with 13,290,018 shares outstanding.

**Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)**— "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" reflected in the Company's shareholders' equity is comprised of unrealized gains or losses on the Company's available-for-sale securities.

**Share Repurchase Program**—The Company has a share repurchase program that permits the Company to repurchase up to $10.0 million of its common shares in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including pursuant to one or more trading plans. Any such purchases will be subject to market and pricing conditions, applicable law and other factors deemed relevant in the Company's sole discretion. The share repurchase authorization does not obligate the Company to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 29,534 shares of its outstanding common stock for $0.2 million, representing an average cost of $6.41 per share. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had authorization to repurchase up to $9.8 million of common stock under the program.

#### Note 14—Fair Values
Fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to be used in valuation techniques to measure fair value:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

Certain of the Company's assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value either on a recurring or non-recurring basis. Assets required to be marked-to-market and reported at fair value every reporting period are classified as being valued on a recurring basis. Assets not required to be recorded at fair value every period may be recorded at fair value if a specific provision or other impairment is recorded within the period to mark the carrying value of the asset to market as of the reporting date. Such assets are classified as being valued on a non-recurring basis.

**Note 15—Segment Reporting**

The Company operates its business through one reportable and operating segment that focuses on realizing value for shareholders primarily by generating cash flows through active asset management and sales of its existing loans, operating properties and land and development properties. The Company's chief executive officer is the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") and uses net income (loss), as reported on the Company's consolidated statements of operations, to measure segment operating performance and allocate resources. All of the Company's expenses are included in segment operating performance and are reviewed regularly. The measure of segment assets is reported on the Company's consolidated balance sheets as total assets.

#### Our Development Portfolio
*Asbury Park Waterfront*

We are the managing member in Asbury Partners, LLC, which is the joint venture that owns the Asbury Park Waterfront investment. The aggregate carrying value of the Asbury Park Waterfront investment was approximately $134.6 million as of June 30, 2025.

The Asbury Park Waterfront investment includes the following:

● Asbury Ocean Club Surfside Resort and Residences: a 16-story mixed use project featuring 130 residential condominium units, a 54-key luxury boutique hotel, 24,000 square feet of retail space, 410 structured parking spaces and a 15,000 square foot gym and spa amenity area. The property was completed in 2019. The hotel is managed by a third party. As of June 30, 2025, all residential condominium units have been sold.

● The Asbury: a 110-key independent boutique hotel with indoor and outdoor event spaces, and a rooftop bar. The hotel was completed in 2016 and is managed by a third party.

● Asbury Lanes: a 12,000 square foot music and entertainment venue. The venue was completed in 2018, is connected to The Asbury and managed by a third party.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Our current strategy for the Asbury Park Waterfront investment is to actively asset manage our operating assets, and strategically monetize the remaining development sites and our operating assets through sales to third party developers and operators while meeting our obligations under the redevelopment agreement with the city of Asbury Park.

*Magnolia Green*

Magnolia Green is an approximately 1,900 acre multi-generational master planned residential community that is entitled for 3,550 single and multifamily dwelling units and approximately 193 acres of land for commercial development. The community is located 19 miles southwest of Richmond, Virginia and offers distinct phases designed for people in different life stages, from first home buyers to empty nesters in single family and townhomes built by the area's top homebuilders. The project is anchored by the Magnolia Green Golf Club, a semi-private 18-hole Nicklaus Design championship golf course with full-service clubhouse and driving range. There are also numerous community amenities, including the Aquatic Center, featuring multiple pools and a snack bar, Arbor Walk, featuring a junior Olympic competition pool, water slide and sports courts, the Tennis Center, featuring tennis and pickleball courts and a pro shop, and miles of paved trails. The aggregate carrying value of our Magnolia Green assets as of June 30, 2025 was $28.7 million.

As of June 30, 2025, 2,225 residential lots have been sold to homebuilders. We anticipate selling our remaining residential lots to homebuilders either upon completion of horizontal lot development or in bulk as unimproved lots over the next two years and it could take substantially longer. We anticipate selling the golf course operations to a third party upon completion of residential lot sellout. There can be no assurance, however, that these sales will be completed.

**Our Monetizing Portfolio**

As of June 30, 2025, we owned assets that we expect to monetize primarily through asset sales, loan repayments or active asset management. These assets included in our portfolio as of June 30, 2025 had an aggregate carrying value of approximately $147.3 million and were comprised primarily of loans, operating properties, land and other assets. Summarized information regarding these assets is set forth below.

***Loans and other lending investments****.* The loans and other lending investments included in our monetizing portfolio as of June 30, 2025 include three loans with an aggregate carrying value of $32.8 million and seven available-for-sale debt securities with an aggregate carrying value of $14.2 million.

***Land****.* The land assets included in our portfolio as of June 30, 2025 include one asset with a carrying value of approximately $14.4 million. Our general strategy is to seek to sell the land assets to third party developers. In addition, another land asset at Asbury Park with a carrying value of $82.9 million is held by a venture to which we have provided a loan and certain credit support (refer to Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements).

***Other****.* The remainder of the monetizing assets primarily consist of two short term leases that we have subleased to third parties, which had an aggregate carrying value of $3.0 million as of June 30, 2025, and a group of loans and equity interests that are recorded as having no carrying value in our financial statements. Our general strategy is to seek to sell the leased assets, although we may hold one or both leases until they expire. For the assets with no carrying value, we may seek to sell these assets but can give no assurance that we will recover any value from them.

***Investment in Safe***. In addition to the assets described above, we also own the Safe Shares which had a fair value of $210.4 million based on the closing price of $15.56 as of June 30, 2025.

Our Margin Loan Facility is collateralized by the Safe Shares as of June 30, 2025. The net proceeds from the sale of any Safe Shares must be applied in accordance with the terms of the Margin Loan Facility.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Declines in the market value of the Safe Shares could require us to make prepayments of some or all of the outstanding borrowings under the Margin Loan Facility or post additional cash collateral. We are permitted to access incremental borrowings under the Safe Credit Facility to address collateral shortfalls under the Margin Loan Facility and to refund certain optional voluntary prepayments under the Margin Loan Facility; however, such additional borrowings will increase our interest expense under the Safe Credit Facility because the interest rate on all borrowings increases to 10.0% per annum while incremental borrowings remain outstanding.

***Revenue***—Operating lease income, which primarily includes income from commercial operating properties, was $1.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The increase in 2025 was due primarily to an increase in recovery income at one of our properties.

Interest income increased to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $0.4 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in interest income was due primarily to an increase in the average balance of our performing loans and other lending investments due to loan originations and the acquisition of available for sale securities.

Other income decreased to $12.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $12.7 million for the same period in 2024. Other income consists primarily of dividend income from our investment in Safe and income from our hotel properties and other operating properties, including Asbury Lanes and the Magnolia Green Golf Club.

***Land development revenue and cost of sales***—During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we sold residential lots and units and recognized land development revenue of $26.6 million which had associated cost of sales of $18.5 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we sold residential lots and units and recognized land development revenue of $15.7 million which had associated cost of sales of $19.0 million. The increase in 2025 was primarily due to a bulk sale at our Asbury Park property. As we execute future sales and have fewer remaining residential and development assets, we expect our land development revenue will decline. The timing and amount of such sales cannot be predicted with certainty.

***Costs and expenses***—For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we incurred $2.2 million of interest expense on the Safe Credit Facility and $1.7 million of interest expense on our Margin Loan Facility, net of amounts capitalized. We may elect to pay interest in kind ("PIK") on the Margin Loan Facility in respect of certain quarterly interest payments and a cumulative $7.3 million has been added to the principal balance on the Margin Loan Facility. The applicable margin on the Margin Loan Facility increases by 25 basis points for the entirety of the interest period immediately succeeding any

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

interest period with respect to which we make a PIK election. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred $2.1 million of interest expense on the Safe Credit Facility and $1.7 million of interest expense on our Margin Loan Facility, net of amounts capitalized.

Real estate expense was $12.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and $12.2 million for the same period in 2024. Real estate expense primarily represents expenses at our hotel and retail operating properties and land properties. The increase in 2025 was due primarily to an increase in expenses at our Asbury Park property.

Depreciation and amortization was $1.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and $1.2 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease in 2025 was due primarily to a decrease in expense at our Asbury Park properties due to assets being fully depreciated.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we incurred $3.3 million of general and administrative expense, primarily resulting from management fees to Safe and director fees. The annual management fee payable to our Manager under the Management Agreement declined from $15.0 million to $10.0 million for the third annual term of the Management Agreement which ends on March 31, 2026. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred $4.6 million of general and administrative expense, primarily resulting from management fees to Safe and director fees. The decrease in 2025 was due primarily to a decrease in management fees.

The provision for loan losses was $25 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to a recovery of loan losses of $2 thousand for the same period in 2024. The provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 resulted primarily from an increase in the balance of our loan portfolio. The provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 resulted primarily from an improving economic forecast.

Other expense was $2 thousand during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and $8 thousand for the same period in 2024.

Unrealized gain (loss) on equity investment represents the unrealized gain or loss on our Safe Shares. We account for our Safe Shares as an equity investment under ASC 321, which requires that we adjust our investment in the Safe Shares to fair value through income at each reporting period. The unrealized loss for the three months ended June 30, 2025 represents the difference between the fair value of our investment in the Safe Shares as of June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025. The unrealized loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024 represents the difference between the fair value of our investment in the Safe Shares as of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024.

***Revenue***—Operating lease income, which primarily includes income from commercial operating properties, was $3.7 million and $3.6 million, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

Interest income increased to $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $0.8 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in interest income was due primarily to an increase in the average balance of our performing loans and other lending investments due to loan originations and the acquisition of available for sale securities.

Other income decreased to $19.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $19.3 million for the same period in 2024. Other income consists primarily of dividend income from our investment in Safe and income from our hotel properties and other operating properties, including Asbury Lanes and the Magnolia Green Golf Club. The decrease in 2025 was due primarily to a decrease in performance at our Asbury properties.

***Land development revenue and cost of sales***—During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we sold residential lots and units and recognized land development revenue of $31.8 million which had associated cost of sales of $25.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we sold residential lots and units and recognized land development revenue of $32.3 million which had associated cost of sales of $31.4 million. The decrease in 2025 was due primarily to a bulk parcel at Coney Island in 2024, which was partially offset by an increase in sales at our Asbury Park and Magnolia Green properties. As we execute future sales and have fewer remaining residential and development assets, we expect our land development revenue will decline. The timing and amount of such sales cannot be predicted with certainty.

***Costs and expenses***—For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we incurred $4.4 million of interest expense on the Safe Credit Facility and $3.3 million of interest expense on our Margin Loan Facility, net of amounts capitalized. We may elect to pay interest in kind ("PIK") on the Margin Loan Facility in respect of certain quarterly interest payments and a cumulative $7.3 million has been added to the principal balance on the Margin Loan Facility. The applicable margin on the Margin Loan Facility increases by 25 basis points for the entirety of the interest period immediately succeeding any interest period with respect to which we make a PIK election. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred $4.2 million of interest expense on the Safe Credit Facility and $3.4 million of interest expense on our Margin Loan Facility, net of amounts capitalized. The decrease in expense in 2025 was primarily the result of lower interest rates.

Real estate expense was $22.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and $24.0 million for the same period in 2024. Real estate expense primarily represents expenses at our hotel and retail operating properties and land

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

properties. The decrease in 2025 was due primarily to a decrease in expenses at our Asbury Park and Coney Island properties.

Depreciation and amortization was $1.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and $2.4 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease in 2025 was due primarily to a decrease in expense at our Asbury Park properties due to assets being fully depreciated.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we incurred $8.0 million of general and administrative expense, primarily resulting from management fees to Safe and director fees. The annual management fee payable to our Manager under the Management Agreement declined from $15.0 million to $10.0 million for the third annual term of the Management Agreement which ends on March 31, 2026. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred $12.0 million of general and administrative expense, primarily resulting from management fees to Safe and director fees. The decrease in 2025 was due primarily to a decrease in management fees.

The recovery of loan losses was $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to a provision for loan losses of $15 thousand for the same period in 2024. The recovery of loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 resulted primarily from a net decrease in the balance of our loan portfolio during the period and an improving economic forecast. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 resulted primarily from the addition to a loan during the year.

Other expense was $7 thousand during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and $0.1 million for the same period in 2024.

Unrealized gain (loss) on equity investment represents the unrealized gain or loss on our Safe Shares. We account for our Safe Shares as an equity investment under ASC 321, which requires that we adjust our investment in the Safe Shares to fair value through income at each reporting period. The unrealized loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025 represents the difference between the fair value of our investment in the Safe Shares as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The unrealized loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 represents the difference between the fair value of our investment in the Safe Shares as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Loss on early extinguishment of debt during the six months ended June 30, 2025 resulted from the partial repayment of the Margin Loan Facility.

#### Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including to pay interest and repay borrowings, develop our assets and maintain our operations, make distributions to our shareholders and meet other general business needs. We were formed in 2023 and we have not paid any dividends. We do not expect to pay regular dividends. We intend to make distributions of available cash from time to time, primarily dependent upon our ability to sell assets and the prices at which we sell our assets.

Our sources of cash will be largely dependent on asset sales, which are difficult to predict in terms of timing and amount. While we may be able to anticipate and plan for certain liquidity needs, there may be unexpected increases in uses of cash that are beyond our control and which would affect our financial position, liquidity and results of operations, such as prepayments on the Margin Loan Facility resulting from declines in the market value of the Safe Shares. Even if there are no material changes to our anticipated liquidity requirements, our sources of liquidity may be fewer than, and the funds available from such sources may be less than, anticipated or needed. Our primary sources of liquidity will generally consist of our cash on hand and proceeds from asset sales. We expect our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements to include:

● capital expenditures on our Asbury Park Waterfront and Magnolia Green development projects;

● debt service on the Safe Credit Facility and the Margin Loan Facility (refer to Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements), and any other indebtedness including any repurchase agreements;

● repayment or refinancing of the Margin Loan Facility and the Safe Credit Facility at their respective maturities;

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

● management fees and expense reimbursements payable to our Manager (refer to Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements) ;

● operating expenses; and

● distributions to shareholders if we have any excess cash on hand from asset sales after the repayment of our debt obligations.

We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through any cash flows from operations, proceeds from asset sales, borrowings on available debt facilities and our unrestricted cash. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements through any cash flows from operations and proceeds from asset sales and through refinancing maturing debt.

Our future cash sources will be largely dependent on proceeds from asset sales. The amount and timing of asset sales, including the sale of Safe Shares, could be adversely affected by a number of factors, some of which are outside of our control, including the macroeconomic factors discussed below. We cannot predict with certainty the specific transactions we will undertake to generate sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations as they come due. We will adjust our plans as appropriate in response to changes in our expectations and changes in market conditions. The uncertainty related to macroeconomic factors such as inflation, interest rate increases, market volatility, disruptions in the banking sector, tariff policy, geopolitical uncertainty and the availability of financing, and the effects of these factors on the economy generally and on the commercial real estate markets in which we operate, make it impossible for us to predict or to quantify the impact of these or other trends on our financial results or liquidity.

The following table outlines our cash flows from operating activities, cash flows from investing activities and cash flows from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 ($ in thousands):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **For the Six Months Ended June 30,**  | **For the Six Months Ended June 30,**  |
|  | **2025** | **2024** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities | $(8966) | $(20637) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities | (4403) | 17510 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities | 23710 |  |

---

The decrease in cash flows used in operating activities during 2025 was due primarily to a decrease in general and administrative expense, a decrease in real estate expense and an increase in interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease in cash flows from investing activities during 2025 was due primarily to an increase in capital expenditures, which was partially offset by a decrease in the origination and fundings of loans receivable and other lending investments. Cash flows provided by financing activities during 2025 primarily represents net borrowings on our debt obligations.

**Debt Covenants**—The Margin Loan Facility requires that we comply with various covenants, including, without limitation, covenants restricting, subject to certain exceptions, indebtedness, liens, investments and the payment of dividends. Additionally, the Margin Loan Facility includes customary representations and warranties, events of default and other creditor protections for this type of facility. Upon the occurrence of certain events which are customary for this type of facility, we may be required to prepay all amounts due under the Margin Loan Facility or post additional collateral in accordance with the Margin Loan Facility and related agreements. As part of the amendment to the Margin Loan Facility that we entered into on March 28, 2025, the loan-to-value ratios that would require us to post additional collateral with the lender or permit us to request a release of collateral were eased from existing levels.

The Safe Credit Facility requires that we comply with various covenants, including, without limitation, covenants restricting, subject to certain exceptions, indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers, asset sales and the payment of certain dividends. Additionally, the Safe Credit Facility includes customary representations and warranties as well as customary events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable grace period, would permit Safe to, among other

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations of ours under the Safe Credit Facility to be immediately due and payable and foreclose on the collateral securing the Safe Credit Facility.

A subsidiary of ours provided a completion and carry guaranty on the Loan (refer to Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements) and is required to maintain a minimum net worth and a minimum liquidity amount both prior to and after the completion of the Project while the Loan is outstanding.

As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with all of our financial covenants.

#### Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported as assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We have established detailed policies and control procedures intended to ensure that valuation methods, including any judgments made as part of such methods, are well controlled, reviewed and applied consistently from period to period. We base our estimates on historical corporate and industry experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be appropriate under the circumstances. For all of these estimates, we caution that future events rarely develop exactly as forecasted, and, therefore, routinely require adjustment.

For a discussion of our critical accounting policies, refer to the combined and consolidated financial statements of our 2024 Annual Report.

#### Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

#### Market Risks
Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, commodity prices and equity prices. In pursuing our business plan, the primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk. Our operating results will depend in part on the difference between the interest and related income earned on our assets and the interest expense incurred in connection with our interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in the general level of interest rates prevailing in the financial markets will affect our floating liabilities. Any significant increase in interest rates on our interest-bearing liabilities could have a material adverse effect on us. There can be no assurance that our profitability will not be materially adversely affected during any period as a result of changing interest rates.

In the event of a significant rising interest rate environment or economic downturn, defaults could increase and cause us to incur additional credit losses which would adversely affect our liquidity and operating results. Such delinquencies or defaults would likely have a material adverse effect on the spreads between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. In addition, an increase in interest rates could, among other things, reduce the value of our fixed-rate interest-bearing assets and our ability to realize gains from the sale of such assets.

Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. We monitor the spreads between our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and may implement hedging strategies to limit the effects of changes in interest rates on our operations, including engaging in interest rate swaps, interest rate caps and other interest rate-related derivative contracts. Such strategies are designed to reduce our exposure, on specific transactions or on a portfolio basis, to changes in cash flows as a result of interest rate movements in the market. We do not enter into derivative contracts for speculative purposes or as a hedge against changes in our credit risk or the credit risk of our borrowers.

The following table quantifies the potential changes in annual net income, assuming no change in our interest earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, should interest rates decrease or increase by 10, 50 or 100 basis points, assuming no

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

change in the shape of the yield curve (i.e., relative interest rates). Actual results could differ significantly from those estimated in the table.

#### Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company has formed a disclosure committee that is responsible for considering the materiality of information and determining the disclosure obligations of the Company on a timely basis. The disclosure committee reports directly to the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the disclosure committee and other members of management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) or Rule 15d-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this quarterly report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company's periodic reports.
