Seton, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “We believe that our two most recent acquisitions, one located in Knoxville, Tennessee, and the other in Dover, Delaware, exemplify the asset quality that Sila seeks to own. These acquisitions, which are $58.8 million in aggregate purchase price, further demonstrate our ongoing commitment to investing in necessity, purpose-built healthcare real estate that aligns with our strategic focus on lower cost patient settings which support the delivery of specialized care in growing markets.” “Our portfolio continues to exhibit attractive fundamentals, with a weighted average remaining lease term of 9.7 years and average annual contractual rent escalations of 2.2%. These characteristics, we believe, are indicative of the long-term, durable nature of our cash flows, while the diversity and quality of our tenancy is reflective of our depth of relationships and contacts in the healthcare marketplace. We continue to remain in an extremely strong financial position, with $598.5 million in liquidity and a net debt to EBITDAre ratio of 3.5x as of quarter-end, giving us ample flexibility to continue executing on our disciplined growth strategy. Furthermore, the recent over-subscription and successful recast of our corporate revolving credit facility, we believe, serves as a powerful validation of the confidence our lending partners have in Sila’s platform, including our experienced team and portfolio quality.” *Some of the financial measures throughout this press release are non-GAAP measures. Refer to the Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation tables at the end of this press release for additional information and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Financial Results Net Income Our GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2025 was $7.9 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, compared to $15.0 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024. Cash NOI Cash NOI was $41.2 million for the first quarter of 2025, as compared to $46.9 million for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in Cash NOI is due to receipt of a lease termination fee and the severance fee received from GenesisCare USA, Inc. and its affiliates, or GenesisCare, in the first quarter of 2024, as well as a property vacancy as a result of the Steward Healthcare bankruptcy. This was partially offset by an increase in Cash NOI from acquisitions and first quarter 2025 Cash NOI increases at our other same store properties compared to the first quarter of 2024, primarily as a result of contractual rent increases. AFFO AFFO was $29.4 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, during the first quarter of 2025, compared to $38.3 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, during the first quarter of 2024. Real Estate Portfolio Highlights Investment Activity During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the Company acquired one healthcare property in Knoxville, Tennessee, comprising 70,005 rentable square feet, for a purchase price of $35.3 million. At the time of acquisition, the property was 100% leased under an absolute-net lease to Knoxville Rehabilitation Hospital, LLC with an expiring lease in 2036. Portfolio As of March 31, 2025, Sila's well diversified real estate portfolio consisted of 136 properties comprising approximately 5.3 million rentable square feet. The weighted average remaining lease term was approximately 9.7 years with 20.0% of annualized base rent maturing in the next five years and a weighted average fixed rent escalation rate of 2.2%, excluding leases tied to the consumer price index. As of March 31, 2025, the weighted average percentage of rentable square feet leased was 96.0%. Balance Sheet and Capital Markets Activities Sila had a strong balance sheet and liquidity position totaling approximately $598.5 million, consisting of $30.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $568.0 million of availability under its unsecured credit facility as of March 31, 2025. On February 18, 2025, the Company entered into a senior unsecured revolving credit agreement, or the 2029 Revolving Credit Agreement, with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the lenders, for aggregate commitments available of up to $600.0 million, which may be increased, subject to lender approval, through incremental term loans and/or revolving loan commitments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $1.5 billion.

The 2029 Revolving Credit Agreement was entered into to replace the Company's prior $500.0 million revolving line of credit, which had a maturity date of February 15, 2026, with the option to extend for two six-month periods. The Company did not exercise the option to extend. Additionally, upon closing of the 2029 Revolving Credit Agreement, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the senior unsecured amended and restated term loan agreement with Truist Bank, as Administrative Agent, which matures in 2027, and a Second Amendment to the senior unsecured term loan with Truist Bank, as Administrative Agent for the lenders, which matures in 2028, to align certain terms and covenants to the 2029 Revolving Credit Agreement.

The information that the Company posts to its website may be deemed material. Accordingly, the Company encourages investors and others interested in the Company to routinely monitor and review the information that the Company posts on its website, in addition to following the Company's press releases, public conference calls and SEC filings. A glossary of definitions (including those of certain non-GAAP financial measures) and other supplemental information may be found attached as Exhibit 99.2 to the Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed on May 9, 2025. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release includes certain financial performance measures not defined by United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in this press release. We believe such measures provide investors with additional information concerning our operating performance and a basis to compare our performance with the performance of other REITs. Our definitions and calculations of these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures reported by other REITs. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income attributable to common stockholders (determined in accordance with GAAP) as indicators of our financial performance, as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), or as measures of our liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flows to fund all of our needs. Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (amounts in thousands, except share data) Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (amounts in thousands, except share data and per share amounts) (unaudited) Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation A description of FFO, Core FFO and AFFO, and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and a description of same store cash NOI and reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to rental revenue, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, are provided below. Reconciliation of Net Income to FFO, Core FFO and AFFO (amounts in thousands) Funds From Operations (FFO) FFO is calculated consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT's, definition, as net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains from sales of real estate assets, impairment of real estate assets and disposition losses from sales of real estate assets, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We do not have any investments in unconsolidated partnerships or joint ventures. We believe FFO provides a useful understanding of our performance to investors and to our management, and when compared to year over year, FFO reflects the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy. It should be noted, however, that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company does, making comparisons less meaningful. Core FFO The Company believes Core FFO is a supplemental financial performance measure that provides investors with additional information to understand the Company's sustainable performance. The Company calculates Core FFO by adjusting FFO to remove the effect of certain GAAP non-cash income and expense items, unusual and infrequent items that are not expected to impact its operating performance on an ongoing basis, items that affect comparability to prior periods and/or items that are not related to its core real estate operations. Excluded items include listing-related expenses, severance, write-off of straight-line rent receivables related to prior periods, accelerated stock-based compensation, amortization of above- and below-market lease intangibles (including ground leases), loss on extinguishment of debt and changes in the current expected credit loss reserve. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating Core FFO and, accordingly, the Company’s Core FFO may not be comparable to other REITs. AFFO The Company believes AFFO is a supplemental financial performance measure that provides investors appropriate supplemental information to evaluate the ongoing operations of the Company. AFFO is a metric used by management to evaluate the Company's dividend policy. The Company calculates AFFO by further adjusting Core FFO for the following items: deferred rent, current period straight-line rent adjustments, amortization of deferred financing costs and stock-based compensation. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating AFFO and, accordingly, the Company’s AFFO may not be comparable to other REITs. FFO, Core FFO and AFFO should not be considered to be more relevant or accurate than the GAAP methodology in calculating net income or in its applicability in evaluating the Company's operational performance. The method used to evaluate the value and performance of real estate under GAAP should be considered a more relevant measure of operating performance and more prominent than the non-GAAP FFO, Core FFO and AFFO measures and the adjustments to GAAP in calculating FFO, Core FFO and AFFO. Reconciliation of Net Income to Same Store Cash Net Operating Income (Same Store Cash NOI) (amounts in thousands) NOI The Company defines net operating income, or NOI, a non-GAAP financial measure, as rental revenue, less rental expenses, on an accrual basis. Same Store Properties In order to evaluate the overall portfolio, management analyzes the NOI of same store properties. The Company defines "same store properties" as properties that were owned and operated for the entirety of both calendar periods being compared and excludes properties under development, re-development, or classified as held for sale. By evaluating same store properties, management is able to monitor the operations of the Company's existing properties for comparable periods to measure the performance of the current portfolio and readily observe the expected effects of new acquisitions and dispositions on net income. There were 125 same store properties for the quarters ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Cash NOI The Company defines Cash NOI as NOI for its properties excluding the impact of GAAP adjustments to rental revenue and rental expenses, consisting of straight-line rent adjustments, net of write-offs, amortization of above- and below-market lease intangibles (including ground leases) and internal property management fees, then including deferred rent received in cash. Cash NOI is used to evaluate the cash-based performance of the Company’s real estate portfolio. Same store Cash NOI is calculated to exclude non-same store Cash NOI. The Company believes that NOI and Cash NOI both serve as useful supplements to net income because they allow investors and management to measure unlevered property-level operating results and to compare these results to the comparable results of other real estate companies on a consistent basis. Other real estate companies may use different methodologies for calculating Cash NOI and, accordingly, the Company’s Cash NOI may not be comparable to other real estate companies. The Company uses both NOI and Cash NOI to make decisions about resource allocations and to assess the property-level performance of the real estate portfolio. More News From Sila Realty Trust, Inc.
