**Management Commentary**

"First quarter 2026 results were in line with our expectations and marked a solid start to the year," said Scott Schaeffer, Chairman and CEO of IRT. "Portfolio occupancy and retention rates remain stable and supply pressure continues to abate across our portfolio. Asking rents have increased 2.8% to-date, driven by consistent demand for our communities. We expect market fundamentals to continue to improve during the rest of the year which, combined with our proven ability to manage expenses, will drive NOI growth that supports our 2026 outlook."

------

------

**Investment Activity**

*Acquisitions*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On January 15, 2026, we acquired a 140-unit community in Columbus, Ohio, for $29.5 million. The acquisition increased our exposure in Columbus, Ohio from 2,510 units to 2,650 units.

*Joint Ventures*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Tisdale at Lakeline Station, Austin, Texas*: On January 20, 2026, we acquired our joint venture partner's 10% membership interest and assumed full operational control and 100% equity ownership of the Tisdale at Lakeline Station property underlying this joint venture. We began consolidating the assets and liabilities of the property and its operating results on January 20, 2026. The property is a 378-unit community in lease-up and was 33.6% occupied as of April 27, 2026.

*Capital Expenditures*

Across our total portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2026, recurring capital expenditures were $6.1 million, or $176 per unit; Value Add Initiative expenditures were $8.6 million; non-recurring expenditures were $5.5 million; and development expenditures were $1.9 million, respectively.

**Capital Markets**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *$350 Million Unsecured Term Loan*: As previously disclosed, on February 11, 2026, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement that provides for a new $350 million unsecured term loan that was used to repay our $200 million term loan and fund mortgage maturities set for 2026. The $350 million unsecured term loan matures in February 2030, subject to a one-year extension option. This amended and restated credit agreement strengthened our balance sheet by increasing the capacity under our unsecured credit agreement to $1.5 billion (with the ability to request the capacity be further increased to $2.0 billion) and extending our debt maturity profile.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Stock Repurchases*: Our Board of Directors previously authorized a stock repurchase program for the repurchase of up to $250.0 million of the Company's common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased approximately 1.8 million shares of common stock at an average price per share of $16.24. The total aggregate cost for the quarter was approximately $29.9 million. As of March 31, 2026, there was approximately $190.1 million remaining under our stock repurchase program.

**Balance Sheet and Liquidity**

At March 31, 2026, our net debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 6.5x. As of the same date and including the effect of hedges, our weighted average effective interest rate on our consolidated debt was 4.3% with a weighted average maturity of 3.1 years, and 89.3% of our debt was either subject to fixed interest rates or was hedged. Also as of March 31, 2026, we had approximately $563.0 million in liquidity through a combination of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, and capacity under our unsecured revolver.

**Dividend Distribution**

On March 9, 2026, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per share of common stock. The first quarter dividend was paid on April 17, 2026 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 27, 2026.

**2026 EPS, FFO and CFFO Guidance**

We affirm our guidance ranges for 2026 EPS, FFO, and CFFO per share and same-store NOI. We have updated our outlook for weighted average shares/units outstanding to reflect the stock repurchase activity completed in Q1 2026. A reconciliation of our projected EPS to our projected FFO and CFFO per share is included below. See the schedules and definitions at the end of this release for further information regarding how we calculate CFFO and for management's definition and rationale for the usefulness of CFFO.

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **2026 Full Year EPS and CFFO Guidance(1)(2)** | **Low** | **High** |
| Earnings per share | $0.21 | $0.28 |
| Adjustments: |  |  |
| Depreciation and amortization | 1.06 | 1.06 |
| Gain on sale of real estate assets (3) | (0.12) | (0.15) |
| FFO per share | 1.15 | 1.19 |
| Loan (premium accretion) discount amortization, net | (0.03) | (0.03) |
| CFFO per share (2) | $1.12 | $1.16 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) This guidance, including the underlying assumptions presented in the 2026 Guidance Assumptions table that follows, constitutes forward-looking information. Actual full year 2026 EPS, FFO, and CFFO could vary significantly from the projections presented. See "Forward-Looking Statements".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Per share guidance is based on 242.2 million weighted average shares and units outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Gain on sale of real estate assets includes gains on sale expected to be recognized with respect to two properties classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2026.

------

**2026 Guidance Assumptions<sup>(1)</sup>** 

Our key guidance assumptions for 2026 are enumerated below. See the definitions at the end of this release for further information regarding our same-store definitions.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Same-Store Portfolio:** | **2026 Outlook:** |
| Number of properties/units | 109 properties / 31,735 units |
| Property revenue growth | 1.0% - 2.4% |
| Controllable operating expense growth | 4.6% - 5.6% |
| Real estate tax and insurance expense growth | 0.0% - 1.0% |
| Total operating expense growth | 2.9% - 3.9% |
| NOI growth | (0.6%) - 2.2% |
| **Corporate Expenses ($ in millions)** |  |
| General and administrative & property management expenses | $55 - $57 |
| Interest expense(2) | $93 - $97 |
| **Transaction/Investment Volume(3) ($ in millions)** |  |
| Acquisition volume | $145 |
| Disposition volume | $106 - $112 |
| **Capital Expenditures ($ in millions)** |  |
| Recurring | $29 - $33 |
| Value add renovation program | $42 - $46 |
| Non-recurring and revenue enhancing | $32 - $36 |
| Development |  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) This guidance, including the underlying assumptions, constitutes forward-looking information. Actual results could vary significantly from the projections presented. We undertake no duty to update the assumptions used in our guidance except as required by law. See "Forward-Looking Statements."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Interest expense includes amortization of deferred financing costs but excludes loan premium accretion, net. As a result of purchase accounting we recorded loan premiums, net, that are accreted into and reduce GAAP interest expense over the remaining term of the associated debt. However, loan premium accretion is excluded from CFFO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Acquisition volume reflects one property in Columbus, Ohio and the consolidation of a property underlying our joint venture investment in Austin, Texas, both of which occurred during the first quarter. Disposition volume reflects $106 million to $112 million related to the expected disposition of two properties classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2026. There can be no assurance that these dispositions will be consummated at expected pricing levels, within expected time frames, or at all. We continue to evaluate our portfolio for capital recycling opportunities so actual acquisition and disposition volume could vary significantly from our projections.

**Schedule V**

Independence Realty Trust, Inc.

Definitions

**Average Effective Monthly Rent per Unit**

Average effective rent per unit represents the average of net rent amounts, after concessions amortized over the life of the lease, divided by the average occupancy (in units) for the period presented. We believe average effective rent is a helpful measurement in evaluating average pricing. This metric, when presented, reflects the average effective rent per month.

**Average Occupancy**

Average occupancy represents the average occupied units for the reporting period divided by the average of total units available for rent for the reporting period.

**Development Property**

A development property is a property that is either currently under development or is in lease-up prior to reaching overall occupancy of 90%.

**EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA**

Each of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense including amortization of deferred financing costs, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA before certain other non-cash or non-operating gains or losses related to items such as loss on impairment (gain on sale) of real estate, debt extinguishments and acquisition related debt extinguishment expenses, casualty (gains) losses and income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated real estate entities. We consider each of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of performance because it eliminates interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and other non-cash or non-operating gains and losses, which permits investors to view income from operations without these non-cash or non-operating items. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA differs from the methodology used for calculating Adjusted EBITDA by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA reported by other REITs.

------

**Funds From Operations (**"**FFO**"**) and Core Funds From Operations (**"**CFFO**"**)**

We believe that FFO and CFFO, each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure, are additional appropriate measures of the operating performance of a REIT and us in particular. We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), as net income or loss allocated to common shares (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding real estate-related depreciation and amortization expense, loss on impairment (gain on sale) of real estate and unconsolidated real estate entities, and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles. While our calculation of FFO is in accordance with NAREIT's definition, it may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to FFO computations of such other REITs.

CFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations, including depreciation and amortization of other items not included in FFO, and other non-cash or non-operating gains or losses related to items such as casualty (gains) losses, loan premium accretion and discount amortization and debt extinguishment costs from the determination of FFO.

Our calculation of CFFO may differ from the methodology used for calculating CFFO by other REITs and, accordingly, our CFFO may not be comparable to CFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and CFFO as measures of our operating performance, and believe they are also useful to investors, because they facilitate an understanding of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash or non-recurring items that are required by GAAP to be expensed but may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO, CFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we believe that FFO and CFFO may provide us and our investors with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. Neither FFO nor CFFO is equivalent to net income or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and CFFO do not represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Accordingly, FFO and CFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including principal amortization and capital improvements. Neither FFO nor CFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measurement as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating, investing, and financing activities as a measure of our liquidity.

------

**Interest Coverage**

Interest coverage is a ratio computed by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by interest expense.

**Lease Over Lease Effective Rent Growth**

Lease Over Lease Effective Rent Growth represents the change in the weighted average effective monthly rental rate, including the impact of concessions, where both the current and prior lease associated with a unit reflect standard leasing activity and have terms of 9-14 months. We also report Lease Over Lease Effective Rent Growth for All Leases, which represents the change in the weighted average effective monthly rental rate, including the impact of concessions, for all leases regardless of lease terms. We may report Lease Over Lease Effective Rent Growth for new leases, renewal leases, or blended across both new and renewal leases.

**Net Debt**

Net debt, a non-GAAP financial measure, equals total consolidated debt less cash and cash equivalents and loan premiums and discounts. The following table provides a reconciliation of total consolidated debt to net debt (dollars in thousands).

---

|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **As of** | **As of** | **As of** | **As of** | **As of** |
|  | **March 31, 2026** | **December 31, 2025** | **September 30, 2025** | **June 30, 2025** | **March 31, 2025** |
| Total debt | $2433543 | $2281475 | $2296202 | $2249801 | $2253957 |
| Less: cash and cash equivalents | (23341) | (23564) | (23290) | (19491) | (29055) |
| Less: loan discounts and premiums, net | (19833) | (21850) | (23863) | (25469) | (27454) |
| Total net debt | $2390369 | $2236061 | $2249049 | $2204841 | $2197448 |

---

We present net debt and net debt to Adjusted EBITDA because management believes it is a useful measure of our credit position and progress toward reducing leverage. The calculation is limited because we may not always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar for dollar basis.

**Net Operating Income**

We believe that Net Operating Income ("NOI"), a non-GAAP financial measure, is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding interest expense, depreciation and amortization, casualty related costs and gains, property management expenses, general and administrative expenses and net gains on sale of assets.

Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same-store and non same-store basis because NOI measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance.

**Non Same-Store Properties and Non Same-Store Portfolio**

Properties that did not meet the definition of a same-store property as of the beginning of the previous year.

**Same-Store Properties and Same-Store Portfolio**

We review our same-store portfolio at the beginning of each calendar year. Properties are added into the same-store portfolio if they were owned and not a development property at the beginning of the previous year. Properties that are held for sale or have been sold are excluded from the same-store portfolio.

------

**Rent Premium on Value Add Renovations**

The rent premium reflects the per unit per month difference between the rental rate on the renovated unit excluding the impact of upfront concessions, if any, and the market rent for an unrenovated unit as of the date presented, as determined by management consistent with its customary rent-setting and evaluation procedures. We believe excluding the impact of upfront concessions from our rental rates when comparing to the market rental rates for unrenovated units makes the comparison most relevant and the resulting premium provides management with an indicator of the increased rent generated by the unit renovation.

**Renovation Costs per Unit**

Renovation costs per unit includes all costs to renovate the interior units and make certain exterior renovations, including clubhouses and amenities. Interior costs per unit are based on units leased. Exterior costs per unit are based on total units at the community. Excludes overhead costs to support and manage the value add program as those costs relate to the entire program and cannot be allocated to individual projects.

**Return on Investment (**"**ROI**"**) on Value Add Renovations**

ROI is calculated using the Rent Premium per unit per month, multiplied by 12, divided by the interior renovation costs per unit or the total renovation costs, as applicable. We use ROI on value add renovation projects to measure the profitability of a renovation project relative to other projects or relative to other uses of our capital.

**Total Gross Assets** 

Total Gross Assets equals total assets plus accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization, including fully depreciated or amortized real estate and real estate related assets. The following table provides a reconciliation of total assets to total gross assets (dollars in thousands).

Asking rents have increased 2.8% to-date, driven by consistent demand for our communities.

![image01.jpg](image01.jpg)

*Capital Expenditures*

Across our total portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2026, recurring capital expenditures were $6.1 million, or $176 per unit; Value Add Initiative expenditures were $8.6 million; non-recurring expenditures were $5.5 million; and development expenditures were $1.9 million, respectively.

**Capital Markets**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *$350 Million Unsecured Term Loan*: As previously disclosed, **o** n February 11, 2026, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement that provides for a new $350 million unsecured term loan that was used to repay our $200 million term loan and fund mortgage maturities set for 2026. The $350 million unsecured term loan matures in February 2030, subject to a one-year extension option. This amended and restated credit agreement strengthened our balance sheet by increasing the capacity under our unsecured credit agreement to $1.5 billion (with the ability to request the capacity be further increased to $2.0 billion) and extending our debt maturity profile.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Stock Repurchases* **:** Our Board of Directors previously authorized a stock repurchase program for the repurchase of up to $250.0 million of the Company's common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased approximately 1.8 million shares of common stock at an average price per share of $16.24. The total aggregate cost for the quarter was approximately $29.9 million. As of March 31, 2026, there was approximately $190.1 million remaining under our stock repurchase program.

**Balance Sheet and Liquidity**

At March 31, 2026, our net debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 6.5x. As of the same date and including the effect of hedges, our weighted average effective interest rate on our consolidated debt was 4.3% with a weighted average maturity of 3.1 years, and 89.3% of our debt was either subject to fixed interest rates or was hedged. Also as of March 31, 2026, we had approximately $563.0 million in liquidity through a combination of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, and capacity under our unsecured revolver.

**Dividend Distribution**

On March 9, 2026, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per share of common stock. The first quarter dividend was paid on April 17, 2026 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 27, 2026.

**2026 EPS, FFO and CFFO Guidance**

We affirm our guidance ranges for 2026 EPS, FFO, and CFFO per share and same-store NOI. We have updated our outlook for weighted average shares/units outstanding to reflect the stock repurchase activity completed in Q1 2026. A reconciliation of our projected EPS to our projected FFO and CFFO per share is included below. See the schedules and definitions at the end of this release for further information regarding how we calculate CFFO and for management's definition and rationale for the usefulness of CFFO.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **2026 Full Year EPS and CFFO Guidance(1)(2)** | **Low** | **High** |
| Earnings per share | $0.21 | $0.28 |
| Adjustments: |  |  |
| Depreciation and amortization | 1.06 | 1.06 |
| Gain on sale of real estate assets (3) | (0.12) | (0.15) |
| FFO per share | 1.15 | 1.19 |
| Loan (premium accretion) discount amortization, net | (0.03) | (0.03) |
| CFFO per share (2) | $1.12 | $1.16 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) This guidance, including the underlying assumptions presented in the 2026 Guidance Assumptions table that follows, constitutes forward-looking information. Actual full year 2026 EPS, FFO, and CFFO could vary significantly from the projections presented. See "Forward-Looking Statements".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Per share guidance is based on 242.2 million weighted average shares and units outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Gain on sale of real estate assets includes gains on sale expected to be recognized with respect to two properties classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2026.

**2026 Guidance Assumptions<sup>(1)</sup>** 

Our key guidance assumptions for 2026 are enumerated below. See the definitions at the end of this release for further information regarding our same-store definitions.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Same-Store Portfolio:** | **2026 Outlook:** |
| Number of properties/units | 109 properties / 31,735 units |
| Property revenue growth | 1.0% - 2.4% |
| Controllable operating expense growth | 4.6% - 5.6% |
| Real estate tax and insurance expense growth | 0.0% - 1.0% |
| Total operating expense growth | 2.9% - 3.9% |
| NOI growth | (0.6%) - 2.2% |
| **Corporate Expenses ($ in millions)** |  |
| General and administrative & property management expenses | $55 - $57 |
| Interest expense(2) | $93 - $97 |
| **Transaction/Investment Volume(3) ($ in millions)** |  |
| Acquisition volume | $145 |
| Disposition volume | $106 - $112 |
| **Capital Expenditures ($ in millions)** |  |
| Recurring | $29 - $33 |
| Value add renovation program | $42 - $46 |
| Non-recurring and revenue enhancing | $32 - $36 |
| Development |  |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) This guidance, including the underlying assumptions, constitutes forward-looking information. Actual results could vary significantly from the projections presented. We undertake no duty to update the assumptions used in our guidance except as required by law. See "Forward-Looking Statements."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Interest expense includes amortization of deferred financing costs but excludes loan premium accretion, net. As a result of purchase accounting we recorded loan premiums, net, that are accreted into and reduce GAAP interest expense over the remaining term of the associated debt. However, loan premium accretion is excluded from CFFO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Acquisition volume reflects one property in Columbus, Ohio and the consolidation of a property underlying our joint venture investment in Austin, Texas, both of which occurred during the first quarter. Disposition volume reflects $106 million to $112 million related to the expected disposition of two properties classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2026. There can be no assurance that these dispositions will be consummated at expected pricing levels, within expected time frames, or at all. We continue to evaluate our portfolio for capital recycling opportunities so actual acquisition and disposition volume could vary significantly from our projections.

See the schedules at the end of this earnings release for selected financial information for IRT.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Definitions**

We disclose the following non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release: FFO, CFFO, NOI and Adjusted EBITDA. Included at the end of this release are definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation of our reported net income to our FFO and CFFO, a reconciliation of our same-store NOI to our reported net income, a reconciliation of our Adjusted EBITDA to net income, and management's rationales for the usefulness of each of these and other non-GAAP financial measures used in this release.

**DEFINITIONS**

**Average Effective Monthly Rent per Unit**

Average effective rent per unit represents the average of net rent amounts, after concessions amortized over the life of the lease, divided by the average occupancy (in units) for the period presented. We believe average effective rent is a helpful measurement in evaluating average pricing. This metric, when presented, reflects the average effective rent per month.

**Average Occupancy**

Average occupancy represents the average occupied units for the reporting period divided by the average of total units available for rent for the reporting period.

**Development Property**

A development property is a property that is either currently under development or is in lease-up prior to reaching overall occupancy of 90%.

**EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA**

Each of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense including amortization of deferred financing costs, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA before certain other non-cash or non-operating gains or losses related to items such as loss on impairment (gain on sale) of real estate, debt extinguishments and acquisition related debt extinguishment expenses, casualty (gains) losses and income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated real estate entities. We consider each of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of performance because it eliminates interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and other non-cash or non-operating gains and losses, which permits investors to view income from operations without these non-cash or non-operating items. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA differs from the methodology used for calculating Adjusted EBITDA by certain other REITs and, accordingly, our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to Adjusted EBITDA reported by other REITs.

**Funds From Operations (**"**FFO**"**) and Core Funds From Operations (**"**CFFO**"**)**

We believe that FFO and CFFO, each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure, are additional appropriate measures of the operating performance of a REIT and us in particular. We compute FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), as net income or loss allocated to common shares (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding real estate-related depreciation and amortization expense, loss on impairment (gain on sale) of real estate and unconsolidated real estate entities, and the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles. While our calculation of FFO is in accordance with NAREIT's definition, it may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to FFO computations of such other REITs.

CFFO is a computation made by analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations, including depreciation and amortization of other items not included in FFO, and other non-cash or non-operating gains or losses related to items such as casualty (gains) losses, loan premium accretion and discount amortization and debt extinguishment costs from the determination of FFO.

Our calculation of CFFO may differ from the methodology used for calculating CFFO by other REITs and, accordingly, our CFFO may not be comparable to CFFO reported by other REITs. Our management utilizes FFO and CFFO as measures of our operating performance, and believe they are also useful to investors, because they facilitate an understanding of our operating performance after adjustment for certain non-cash or non-recurring items that are required by GAAP to be expensed but may not necessarily be indicative of current operating performance and our operating performance between periods. Furthermore, although FFO, CFFO and other supplemental performance measures are defined in various ways throughout the REIT industry, we believe that FFO and CFFO may provide us and our investors with an additional useful measure to compare our financial performance to certain other REITs. Neither FFO nor CFFO is equivalent to net income or cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, FFO and CFFO do not represent amounts available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments or uncertainties. Accordingly, FFO and CFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including principal amortization and capital improvements. Neither FFO nor CFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measurement as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating, investing, and financing activities as a measure of our liquidity.

**Interest Coverage**

Interest coverage is a ratio computed by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by interest expense.

------

![image01.jpg](image01.jpg)

**Lease Over Lease Effective Rent Growth**

Lease Over Lease Effective Rent Growth represents the change in the weighted average effective monthly rental rate, including the impact of concessions, where both the current and prior lease associated with a unit reflect standard leasing activity and have terms of 9–14 months. We also report Lease Over Lease Effective Rent Growth for All Leases, which represents the change in the weighted average effective monthly rental rate, including the impact of concessions, for all leases regardless of lease terms. We may report Lease Over Lease Effective Rent Growth for new leases, renewal leases, or blended across both new and renewal leases.

**Net Debt**

Net debt, a non-GAAP financial measure, equals total consolidated debt less cash and cash equivalents and loan premiums and discounts. The following table provides a reconciliation of total consolidated debt to net debt (dollars in thousands).

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **As of** | **As of** | **As of** | **As of** | **As of** |
|  | **March 31, 2026** | **December 31, 2025** | **September 30, 2025** | **June 30, 2025** | **March 31, 2025** |
| Total debt | $2433543 | $2281475 | $2296202 | $2249801 | $2253957 |
| Less: cash and cash equivalents | (23341) | (23564) | (23290) | (19491) | (29055) |
| Less: loan discounts and premiums, net | (19833) | (21850) | (23863) | (25469) | (27454) |
| Total net debt | $2390369 | $2236061 | $2249049 | $2204841 | $2197448 |

---

We present net debt and net debt to Adjusted EBITDA because management believes it is a useful measure of our credit position and progress toward reducing leverage. The calculation is limited because we may not always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar for dollar basis.

**Net Operating Income**

We believe that Net Operating Income ("NOI"), a non-GAAP financial measure, is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding interest expense, depreciation and amortization, casualty related costs and gains, property management expenses, general and administrative expenses and net gains on sale of assets.

Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net income. We use NOI to evaluate our performance on a same-store and non same-store basis because NOI measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not related to property operating performance and captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance.

A reconciliation from GAAP net income (loss) to NOI is provided below (dollars in thousands):

**Non Same-Store Properties and Non Same-Store Portfolio**

Properties that did not meet the definition of a same-store property as of the beginning of the previous year.

**Same-Store Properties and Same-Store Portfolio**

We review our same-store portfolio at the beginning of each calendar year. Properties are added into the same-store portfolio if they were owned and not a development property at the beginning of the previous year. Properties that are held for sale or have been sold are excluded from the same-store portfolio.

**Rent Premium on Value Add Renovations**

The rent premium reflects the per unit per month difference between the rental rate on the renovated unit excluding the impact of upfront concessions, if any, and the market rent for an unrenovated unit as of the date presented, as determined by management consistent with its customary rent-setting and evaluation procedures. We believe excluding the impact of upfront concessions from our rental rates when comparing to the market rental rates for unrenovated units makes the comparison most relevant and the resulting premium provides management with an indicator of the increased rent generated by the unit renovation.

**Renovation Costs per Unit**

Renovation costs per unit includes all costs to renovate the interior units and make certain exterior renovations, including clubhouses and amenities. Interior costs per unit are based on units leased. Exterior costs per unit are based on total units at the community. Excludes overhead costs to support and manage the value add program as those costs relate to the entire program and cannot be allocated to individual projects.

**Return on Investment (**"**ROI**"**) on Value Add Renovations**

ROI is calculated using the Rent Premium per unit per month, multiplied by 12, divided by the interior renovation costs per unit or the total renovation costs, as applicable. We use ROI on value add renovation projects to measure the profitability of a renovation project relative to other projects or relative to other uses of our capital.

**Total Gross Assets** 

Total Gross Assets equals total assets plus accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization, including fully depreciated or amortized real estate and real estate related assets. The following table provides a reconciliation of total assets to total gross assets (dollars in thousands).
