Management, verbatim
With approximately 673,000 square feet of leasing completed through the end of July, we continue to execute on our strategy to further stabilize the portfolio as we build on our leasing momentum the past couple years. At the same time, we advanced our disposition program, closing on two property sales and the 37.4 acre Deerfield, Illinois campus for $70.6 million during the quarter. In concert with these sales, we reduced debt during the quarter by $60.7 million bringing our Net Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDA to 5.4x. These efforts and the raising of our 2026 financial outlook reflect the tangible progress we’re making toward our target of driving sustainable Core FFO per share growth over time. We remain committed to maximizing value for our stockholders and continue to closely evaluate strategic options as our review process is ongoing.
