Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most critical accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates and assumptions as to future uncertainties and, therefore, may result in actual amounts that differ from estimates include acquisitions of real estate and valuation of real estate. Real Estate — Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as they are incurred. Significant renovations that improve or extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized. As real estate is undergoing redevelopment activities, all property operating expenses directly associated with and attributable to the redevelopment, including interest, are capitalized to the extent the capitalized costs of the property do not exceed the estimated fair value of the property when completed. If the cost of the redeveloped property, including the net book value of the existing property, exceeds the estimated fair value of redeveloped property, the excess is charged to impairment expense. The capitalization period begins when redevelopment activities are under way and ends when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives which range from one to 40 years. Real estate assets to be sold are reported at the lower of their carrying value or estimated fair value less costs to sell and are classified as real estate held for sale and included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. If the estimated fair value less costs to sell is less than the carrying value, the difference will be recorded as an impairment charge and included in real estate impairment loss on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Once a real estate asset is classified as held for sale, depreciation expense is no longer recorded. The Company classifies real estate assets as held for sale in the period in which all of the following conditions are met: (i) the Company commits to a plan and has the authority to sell the asset; (ii) the asset is available for sale in its current condition; (iii) the Company has initiated an active marketing plan to locate a buyer for the asset; (iv) the sale of the asset is both probable and expected to qualify for full sales recognition within a period of 12 months; (v) the asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value; and (vi) the Company does not anticipate changes to its plan to sell the asset or that the plan will be withdrawn. Upon the acquisition of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, identified intangibles, such as acquired above and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and assumption of liabilities and we allocate the purchase price based on these assessments on a relative fair value basis. We assess fair value based on estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, and available market information, including market-based rental revenues. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions. We record acquired intangible assets (including acquired above-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and acquired intangible liabilities (including below-market leases) at their estimated fair value. We amortize identified intangibles that have finite lives over the period they are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the property or business acquired. Our properties and development projects are individually evaluated for impairment quarterly, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such events and changes include macroeconomic conditions, operating performance, and environmental and regulatory changes, which may result in property operational disruption and could indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis, taking into account the appropriate capitalization rate in determining a future terminal value. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the property’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value. Estimated fair value may be based on discounted future cash flows utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, future market rental rates and, in addition to available market information, third-party appraisals, broker selling estimates or sale agreements under negotiation. Impairment assessments are based on our current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the assessments are prepared. If our estimates of the projected future cash flows change based on uncertain market conditions, our evaluation of impairment losses may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements. Cash and Cash Equivalents — Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities. The majority of our cash and cash equivalents consist of (i) deposits at major commercial banks, including money market accounts, which may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit, (ii) United States Treasury Bills, and (iii) Certificate of Deposits placed through an Account Registry Service (“CDARS”). To date we have not experienced any losses on our invested cash. Restricted Cash — Restricted cash consists of security deposits and cash escrowed under loan agreements for debt service, real estate taxes, property insurance, tenant improvements, leasing commissions, capital expenditures and cash held for potential Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 tax deferred exchange transactions. Tenant and Other Receivables and Changes in Collectibility Assessment — Tenant receivables include unpaid amounts billed to tenants, disputed enforceable charges and accrued revenues for future billings to tenants for property expenses. We evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and disputed enforceable charges on both a lease-by-lease and a portfolio-level, which result from the inability of tenants to make required payments under their operating lease agreements. We recognize changes in the collectibility assessment of these operating leases as adjustments to rental revenue in accordance with ASC 842 Leases. Management exercises judgment in assessing collectibility and considers payment history, current credit status and publicly available information about the financial condition of the tenant, among other factors. Tenant receivables, and receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents, are written-off directly when management deems the collectibility of substantially all future lease payments from a specific lease is not probable, at which point, the Company will begin recognizing revenue from such leases prospectively, based on actual amounts received. This write-off effectively reduces cumulative non-cash rental income recognized from the straight-lining of rents since lease commencement. If the Company subsequently determines that it is probable it will collect substantially all of the lessee’s remaining lease payments under the lease term, the Company will reinstate the receivables balance, including those arising from the straight-lining of rents. Deferred Leasing Costs — Deferred leasing costs include incremental costs of a lease that would have not been incurred if the lease had not been executed, including broker and sale commissions, and contingent legal fees. Such costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases as depreciation and amortization expense on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Deferred leasing costs also includes lease incentives that can be used at the discretion of the tenant. Lease incentives are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related leases as a reduction to rental revenue on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Deferred Financing Costs — Deferred financing costs and debt issuance costs include fees associated with the issuance of our mortgage loans and our credit agreement for an unsecured line of credit with certain financial institutions. Such fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related agreements as a component of interest expense, which approximates the effective interest rate method, in accordance with the terms of the agreement. Deferred financing costs associated with the unsecured line of credit are included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing costs associated with our mortgage loans are included in Mortgages payable, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Revenue Recognition — We have the following revenue sources and revenue recognition policies: •Rental revenue: Rental revenue comprises revenue from fixed and variable lease payments, as designated within tenant operating leases in accordance with ASC 842 Leases, as described further in our Leases accounting policy in Note 3 to the consolidated audited financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. •Rental revenue deemed uncollectible: We evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and disputed enforceable charges on both a lease-by-lease and a portfolio-level, which result from the inability of tenants to make required payments under their operating lease agreements. We recognize changes in the collectibility assessment of these operating leases as adjustments to rental revenue in accordance with ASC 842. •Other income: Other income is generated in connection with certain services provided to tenants for which we earn a fee as well as management and development fee income from contractual property management agreements with third parties, and certain miscellaneous income that pertains to our operations. This revenue is recognized as the services are transferred in accordance with ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Leases — We have approximately 1,100 operating leases at our properties, which generate rental income from tenants and operating cash flows for the Company. Our tenant leases are dependent on the Company, as lessor, agreeing to provide our tenants with the right to control the use of our real estate assets, as lessees. Our real estate assets are comprised of retail shopping centers and malls. Tenants agree to use and control their agreed upon space for their business purposes. Thus, our tenants obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of our shopping center space and have the right to direct how and for what purpose the real estate space is used throughout the period of use. Given these contractual terms, the Company has determined that all tenant contracts of this nature contain a lease. The Company assesses lease classification for each new and modified lease. All new and modified leases which commenced in the year ended December 31, 2025 have been assessed and classified as operating leases. Contractual rent increases of renewal options are often fixed at the time of the initial lease agreement which may result in tenants being able to exercise their renewal options at amounts that are less than the fair value of the rent at the date of renewal. In addition to fixed base rents, certain rental income derived from our tenant leases is variable and may be dependent on percentage rent or the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). Variable lease payments from percentage rents are earned by the Company in the event the tenant's gross sales exceed certain amounts. Terms of percentage rent are agreed upon in the tenant's lease and will vary based on the tenant's sales. Variable lease payments dependent on the CPI will change in accordance with the corresponding increase or decrease in CPI if negotiated and agreed upon in the tenant's lease. Variable lease payments dependent on percentage rent and the CPI were $4.5 million, $5.7 million and $5.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Variable lease payments also arise from tenant expense reimbursements, which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses, common area maintenance expenses, real estate taxes, insurance and capital improvements of the respective property and amounted to $130.7 million, $118.5 million and $103.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company accounts for variable lease payments as rental revenue on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income in the period in which the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occur. The Company also has 19 properties in its portfolio either completely or partially on land or in a building that are owned by third parties. These properties are leased or subleased to us pursuant to ground leases, building leases or easements, with remaining terms ranging from one to 74 years and provide us the right to operate each such property. We also lease real estate for one of our corporate offices with a remaining term of three years. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are recorded for these leases, which represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from these leases. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. The initial measurement of a ROU asset may differ from the initial measurement of the lease liability due to initial direct costs, prepaid lease payments and lease incentives. As of December 31, 2025, no other contracts have been identified as leases. Our leases often offer renewal options, which we assess against relevant economic factors to determine whether the Company is reasonably certain of exercising or not exercising the option. Lease payments associated with renewal periods, for which the Company has determined are reasonably certain of being exercised, are included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset. For finance leases and operating leases, the discount rate applied to measure each ROU asset and lease liability is based on the incremental borrowing rate of the lease due to the rate implicit in the lease not being readily determinable. The Company initially considers the general economic environment and factors in various financing and asset specific secured borrowings so that the overall incremental borrowing rate is appropriate to the intended use of the lease. Certain expenses derived from these leases are variable and are not included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset, but are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. These variable lease payments consist of payments for real estate taxes and common area maintenance, which is dependent on projects and activities at each individual property under ground or building lease. Noncontrolling Interests — Noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries represent the portion of equity that we do not own in those entities that we consolidate. We identify our noncontrolling interests separately within the equity section on the consolidated balance sheets. Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership include OP units and limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership in the form of LTIP unit awards classified as equity. Variable Interest Entities — Certain entities that do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, or for which the equity owners as a group lack any one of the following characteristics: (i) the power, through voting rights or similar rights, to direct the activities of a legal entity that most significantly impacts the entity’s economic performance, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the legal entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the legal entity, qualify as VIEs. VIEs are required to be consolidated by their primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact economic performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The consolidated financial statements reflect the consolidation of VIEs in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Management uses its judgment when determining if we are the primary beneficiary of, or have a controlling financial interest in, an entity in which we have a variable interest. Factors considered in determining whether we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance include voting rights, involvement in day-to-day capital and operating decisions and the extent of our involvement in the entity. Excluding the Operating Partnership, the Company had two entities that met the criteria of a VIE in which we held variable interests as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. These entities are VIEs primarily because the noncontrolling interests do not have substantive kick-out or participating rights and we control the significant operating decisions and consequently have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of these entities. As we also have the obligation to absorb the majority of the losses and/or the right to receive a majority of the benefits for these entities, they were consolidated in our financial statements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The majority of the operations of these VIEs are funded with cash flows generated by the properties and periodic cash contributions. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, excluding the Operating Partnership, the two consolidated VIEs had total assets of $43.5 million and $38.9 million, respectively, and total liabilities of $9.5 million and $9.2 million, respectively. Earnings Per Share and Unit — Basic earnings per common share and unit is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders and unitholders by the weighted average common shares and units outstanding during the period. Unvested share-based payment awards that entitle holders to receive non-forfeitable dividends, such as our restricted stock awards, are classified as “participating securities.” Because the awards are considered participating securities, the Company and the Operating Partnership are required to apply the two-class method of computing basic and diluted earnings that would otherwise have been available to common shareholders and unitholders. Under the two-class method, earnings for the period are allocated between common shareholders and unitholders and other shareholders and unitholders, based on their respective rights to receive dividends. During periods of net loss, losses are allocated only to the extent the participating securities are required to absorb their share of such losses. Diluted earnings per common share and unit reflects the potential dilution of the assumed exercises of shares including stock options and unvested restricted shares to the extent they are dilutive. Share-Based Compensation — We grant stock options, LTIP units, OP units, deferred share units, restricted share awards and performance-based units to our officers, trustees and employees. The term of each award is determined by the compensation committee of our Board of Trustees (the “Compensation Committee”), but in no event can such term be longer than ten years from the date of grant. The vesting schedule of each award is determined by the Compensation Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, at the date of grant of the award. Dividends are paid on certain shares of unvested restricted stock, which makes the restricted stock a participating security. Fair value is determined, depending on the type of award, using either the Black-Scholes option-pricing model or the Monte Carlo method, both of which are intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date. In using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, expected volatilities and dividend yields are primarily based on available implied data and peer group companies’ historical data. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Compensation expense for restricted share awards is based on the fair value of our common shares at the date of the grant and is recognized ratably over the vesting period. For grants with a graded vesting schedule or a cliff vesting schedule, we have elected to recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis. We reduce compensation expense related to forfeited awards in the period of forfeiture. Share-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. When the Company issues common shares as compensation, it receives a like number of common units from the Operating Partnership. Accordingly, the Company’s ownership in the Operating Partnership will increase based on the number of common shares awarded under our 2015 Omnibus Share Plan and 2024 Omnibus Share Plan (collectively the “Omnibus Share Plans”). As a result of the issuance of common units to the Company for share-based compensation, the Operating Partnership accounts for share-based compensation in the same manner as the Company. Income Taxes — The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Code, commencing with the filing of its 2015 tax return for its tax year ended December 31, 2015. So long as the Company qualifies as a REIT under the Code, the Company will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on net taxable income that it distributes annually to its shareholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent taxable years. The Company is subject to certain foreign and state and local income taxes, in particular income taxes arising from its operating activities in Puerto Rico, which are included in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. In addition, the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) are subject to income tax at regular corporate rates. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not. The Company applies the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) guidance relating to uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a Company’s financial statements. Under this guidance the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, and accounting in interim periods. The Company records interest and penalties relating to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense. Concentration of Credit Risk — A concentration of credit risk arises in our business when a national or regionally-based tenant occupies a substantial amount of space in multiple properties owned by us. In that event, if the tenant suffers a significant downturn in its business, it may become unable to make its contractual rent payments to us, exposing us to potential losses in rental revenue, expense recoveries, and percentage rent. Further, the impact may be magnified if the tenant is renting space in multiple locations. Generally, we do not obtain security from our national or regionally-based tenants in support of their lease obligations to us. We regularly monitor our tenant base to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. None of our tenants accounted for more than 10% of total revenues in the year ended December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, The TJX Companies was our largest tenant with twenty-eight stores which comprised an aggregate of 873,159 sf and accounted for approximately $26.5 million, or 5.6% of our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging — At times, the Company may use derivative financial instruments to manage and mitigate exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on our variable rate debt. These derivatives are measured at fair value and are recognized as assets or liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, depending on the Company’s rights or obligations under the respective derivative contracts. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative varies based on eligibility and Company elections, including the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate the derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting, and whether the hedge relationship has satisfied certain criteria to be deemed an effective hedge. Effectiveness of the hedging relationship is assessed on a quarterly basis by a third party to determine if the relationship still meets the criteria to be considered an effective hedge. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. In a cash flow hedge, hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the earnings effect of the hedged transaction. A derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge is adjusted to fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The change in fair value, net of the amortization of the purchase price of the instrument, is deemed to be the effective portion of change and is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”) in the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, with the amortization of the purchase price included in interest and debt expense. Cash flows from the derivative are included in the prepaid expenses and other assets, or accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities line item in the statement of cash flows, depending on whether the hedged item is recognized as an asset or a liability. For further information on the Company’s derivative instruments and hedge designations, refer to Note 9. Recently Issued Accounting Literature In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2024-03 Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosure (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which provides an update to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and provide more detailed information about the types of expenses, including purchase of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization in commonly presented expense captions such as cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses and research and development. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date, which provided clarification on the effective dates of the previously issued ASU. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for all public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is evaluating the impact of this update and will adopt the amendments in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2027. In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Tax (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures which provides for additional disclosures for rate reconciliations, disaggregation of income taxes paid, and other disclosures. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company has evaluated the impact of this update on its disclosures and has applied the required amendments in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Any other recently issued accounting standards or pronouncements not disclosed above have been excluded as they are not relevant to the Company or the Operating Partnership, or they are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most critical accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates and assumptions as to future uncertainties and, therefore, may result in actual amounts that differ from estimates include acquisitions of real estate and valuation of real estate.

Real Estate — Real estate is carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as they are incurred. Significant renovations that improve or extend the useful lives of assets are capitalized. As real estate is undergoing redevelopment activities, all property operating expenses directly associated with and attributable to the redevelopment, including interest, are capitalized to the extent the capitalized costs of the property do not exceed the estimated fair value of the property when completed. If the cost of the redeveloped property, including the net book value of the existing property, exceeds the estimated fair value of redeveloped property, the excess is charged to impairment expense. The capitalization period begins when redevelopment activities are under way and ends when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives which range from one to 40 years.

Real estate assets to be sold are reported at the lower of their carrying value or estimated fair value less costs to sell and are classified as real estate held for sale and included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. If the estimated fair value less costs to sell is less than the carrying value, the difference will be recorded as an impairment charge and included in real estate impairment loss on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Once a real estate asset is classified as held for sale, depreciation expense is no longer recorded.

The Company classifies real estate assets as held for sale in the period in which all of the following conditions are met: (i) the Company commits to a plan and has the authority to sell the asset; (ii) the asset is available for sale in its current condition; (iii) the Company has initiated an active marketing plan to locate a buyer for the asset; (iv) the sale of the asset is both probable and expected to qualify for full sales recognition within a period of 12 months; (v) the asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value; and (vi) the Company does not anticipate changes to its plan to sell the asset or that the plan will be withdrawn.

Upon the acquisition of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, identified intangibles, such as acquired above and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and assumption of liabilities and we allocate the purchase price based on these assessments on a relative fair value basis. We assess fair value based on estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, and available market information, including market-based rental revenues. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions. We record acquired intangible assets (including acquired above-market leases, acquired in-place leases and tenant relationships) and acquired intangible liabilities (including below-market leases) at their estimated fair value. We amortize identified intangibles that have finite lives over the period they are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the property or business acquired.

Our properties and development projects are individually evaluated for impairment quarterly, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such events and changes include macroeconomic conditions, operating performance, and environmental and regulatory changes, which may result in property operational disruption and could indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis, taking into account the appropriate capitalization rate in determining a future terminal value. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the property’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value. Estimated fair value may be based on discounted future cash flows utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, future market rental rates and, in addition to available market information, third-party appraisals, broker selling estimates or sale agreements under negotiation. Impairment assessments are based on our current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the assessments are prepared. If our estimates of the projected future cash flows change based on uncertain market conditions, our evaluation of impairment losses may be different and such differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents — Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities. The majority of our cash and cash equivalents consist of (i) deposits at major commercial banks, including money market accounts, which may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit, (ii) United States Treasury Bills, and (iii) Certificate of Deposits placed through an Account Registry Service (“CDARS”). To date we have not experienced any losses on our invested cash.

Tenant and Other Receivables and Changes in Collectibility Assessment — Tenant receivables include unpaid amounts billed to tenants, disputed enforceable charges and accrued revenues for future billings to tenants for property expenses. We evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and disputed enforceable charges on both a lease-by-lease and a portfolio-level, which result from the inability of tenants to make required payments under their operating lease agreements. We recognize changes in the collectibility assessment of these operating leases as adjustments to rental revenue in accordance with ASC 842 Leases. Management exercises judgment in assessing collectibility and considers payment history, current credit status and publicly available information about the financial condition of the tenant, among other factors. Tenant receivables, and receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents, are written-off directly when management deems the collectibility of substantially all future lease payments from a specific lease is not probable, at which point, the Company will begin recognizing revenue from such leases prospectively, based on actual amounts received. This write-off effectively reduces cumulative non-cash rental income recognized from the straight-lining of rents since lease commencement. If the Company subsequently determines that it is probable it will collect substantially all of the lessee’s remaining lease payments under the lease term, the Company will reinstate the receivables balance, including those arising from the straight-lining of rents.

Deferred Leasing Costs — Deferred leasing costs include incremental costs of a lease that would have not been incurred if the lease had not been executed, including broker and sale commissions, and contingent legal fees. Such costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related leases as depreciation and amortization expense on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Deferred leasing costs also includes lease incentives that can be used at the discretion of the tenant. Lease incentives are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related leases as a reduction to rental revenue on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Deferred Financing Costs — Deferred financing costs and debt issuance costs include fees associated with the issuance of our mortgage loans and our credit agreement for an unsecured line of credit with certain financial institutions. Such fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related agreements as a component of interest expense, which approximates the effective interest rate method, in accordance with the terms of the agreement. Deferred financing costs associated with the unsecured line of credit are included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred financing costs associated with our mortgage loans are included in Mortgages payable, net on the consolidated balance sheets.

•Rental revenue: Rental revenue comprises revenue from fixed and variable lease payments, as designated within tenant operating leases in accordance with ASC 842 Leases, as described further in our Leases accounting policy in Note 3 to the consolidated audited financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

•Rental revenue deemed uncollectible: We evaluate the collectibility of amounts due from tenants and disputed enforceable charges on both a lease-by-lease and a portfolio-level, which result from the inability of tenants to make required payments under their operating lease agreements. We recognize changes in the collectibility assessment of these operating leases as adjustments to rental revenue in accordance with ASC 842.

•Other income: Other income is generated in connection with certain services provided to tenants for which we earn a fee as well as management and development fee income from contractual property management agreements with third parties, and certain miscellaneous income that pertains to our operations. This revenue is recognized as the services are transferred in accordance with ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Leases — We have approximately 1,100 operating leases at our properties, which generate rental income from tenants and operating cash flows for the Company. Our tenant leases are dependent on the Company, as lessor, agreeing to provide our tenants with the right to control the use of our real estate assets, as lessees. Our real estate assets are comprised of retail shopping centers and malls. Tenants agree to use and control their agreed upon space for their business purposes. Thus, our tenants obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of our shopping center space and have the right to direct how and for what purpose the real estate space is used throughout the period of use. Given these contractual terms, the Company has determined that all tenant contracts of this nature contain a lease. The Company assesses lease classification for each new and modified lease. All new and modified leases which commenced in the year ended December 31, 2025 have been assessed and classified as operating leases.

Contractual rent increases of renewal options are often fixed at the time of the initial lease agreement which may result in tenants being able to exercise their renewal options at amounts that are less than the fair value of the rent at the date of renewal. In addition to fixed base rents, certain rental income derived from our tenant leases is variable and may be dependent on percentage rent or the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). Variable lease payments from percentage rents are earned by the Company in the event the tenant's gross sales exceed certain amounts. Terms of percentage rent are agreed upon in the tenant's lease and will vary based on the tenant's sales. Variable lease payments dependent on the CPI will change in accordance with the corresponding increase or decrease in CPI if negotiated and agreed upon in the tenant's lease. Variable lease payments dependent on percentage rent and the CPI were $4.5 million, $5.7 million and $5.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Variable lease payments also arise from tenant expense reimbursements, which provide for the recovery of all or a portion of the operating expenses, common area maintenance expenses, real estate taxes, insurance and capital improvements of the respective property and amounted to $130.7 million, $118.5 million and $103.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company accounts for variable lease payments as rental revenue on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income in the period in which the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occur.

The Company also has 19 properties in its portfolio either completely or partially on land or in a building that are owned by third parties. These properties are leased or subleased to us pursuant to ground leases, building leases or easements, with remaining terms ranging from one to 74 years and provide us the right to operate each such property. We also lease real estate for one of our corporate offices with a remaining term of three years. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are recorded for these leases, which represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease

payments arising from these leases. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. The initial measurement of a ROU asset may differ from the initial measurement of the lease liability due to initial direct costs, prepaid lease payments and lease incentives. As of December 31, 2025, no other contracts have been identified as leases. Our leases often offer renewal options, which we assess against relevant economic factors to determine whether the Company is reasonably certain of exercising or not exercising the option. Lease payments associated with renewal periods, for which the Company has determined are reasonably certain of being exercised, are included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset.

For finance leases and operating leases, the discount rate applied to measure each ROU asset and lease liability is based on the incremental borrowing rate of the lease due to the rate implicit in the lease not being readily determinable. The Company initially considers the general economic environment and factors in various financing and asset specific secured borrowings so that the overall incremental borrowing rate is appropriate to the intended use of the lease. Certain expenses derived from these leases are variable and are not included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset, but are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. These variable lease payments consist of payments for real estate taxes and common area maintenance, which is dependent on projects and activities at each individual property under ground or building lease.

Noncontrolling Interests — Noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries represent the portion of equity that we do not own in those entities that we consolidate. We identify our noncontrolling interests separately within the equity section on the consolidated balance sheets. Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership include OP units and limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership in the form of LTIP unit awards classified as equity.

Variable Interest Entities — Certain entities that do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, or for which the equity owners as a group lack any one of the following characteristics: (i) the power, through voting rights or similar rights, to direct the activities of a legal entity that most significantly impacts the entity’s economic performance, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the legal entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the legal entity, qualify as VIEs. VIEs are required to be consolidated by their primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact economic performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The consolidated financial statements reflect the consolidation of VIEs in which the Company is the primary beneficiary.

Management uses its judgment when determining if we are the primary beneficiary of, or have a controlling financial interest in, an entity in which we have a variable interest. Factors considered in determining whether we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance include voting rights, involvement in day-to-day capital and operating decisions and the extent of our involvement in the entity.

Excluding the Operating Partnership, the Company had two entities that met the criteria of a VIE in which we held variable interests as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. These entities are VIEs primarily because the noncontrolling interests do not have substantive kick-out or participating rights and we control the significant operating decisions and consequently have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of these entities. As we also have the obligation to absorb the majority of the losses and/or the right to receive a majority of the benefits for these entities, they were consolidated in our financial statements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The majority of the operations of these VIEs are funded with cash flows generated by the properties and periodic cash contributions.

Earnings Per Share and Unit — Basic earnings per common share and unit is computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders and unitholders by the weighted average common shares and units outstanding during the period. Unvested share-based payment awards that entitle holders to receive non-forfeitable dividends, such as our restricted stock awards, are classified as “participating securities.” Because the awards are considered participating securities, the Company and the Operating Partnership are required to apply the two-class method of computing basic and diluted earnings that would otherwise have been available to common shareholders and unitholders. Under the two-class method, earnings for the period are allocated between common shareholders and unitholders and other shareholders and unitholders, based on their respective rights to receive dividends. During periods of net loss, losses are allocated only to the extent the participating securities are required to absorb their share of such losses. Diluted earnings per common share and unit reflects the potential dilution of the assumed exercises of shares including stock options and unvested restricted shares to the extent they are dilutive.

committee of our Board of Trustees (the “Compensation Committee”), but in no event can such term be longer than ten years from the date of grant. The vesting schedule of each award is determined by the Compensation Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, at the date of grant of the award. Dividends are paid on certain shares of unvested restricted stock, which makes the restricted stock a participating security.

Fair value is determined, depending on the type of award, using either the Black-Scholes option-pricing model or the Monte Carlo method, both of which are intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date. In using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, expected volatilities and dividend yields are primarily based on available implied data and peer group companies’ historical data. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

Compensation expense for restricted share awards is based on the fair value of our common shares at the date of the grant and is recognized ratably over the vesting period. For grants with a graded vesting schedule or a cliff vesting schedule, we have elected to recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis. We reduce compensation expense related to forfeited awards in the period of forfeiture. Share-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

When the Company issues common shares as compensation, it receives a like number of common units from the Operating Partnership. Accordingly, the Company’s ownership in the Operating Partnership will increase based on the number of common shares awarded under our 2015 Omnibus Share Plan and 2024 Omnibus Share Plan (collectively the “Omnibus Share Plans”). As a result of the issuance of common units to the Company for share-based compensation, the Operating Partnership accounts for share-based compensation in the same manner as the Company.

Income Taxes — The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Code, commencing with the filing of its 2015 tax return for its tax year ended December 31, 2015. So long as the Company qualifies as a REIT under the Code, the Company will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on net taxable income that it distributes annually to its shareholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for any taxable year, we will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent taxable years. The Company is subject to certain foreign and state and local income taxes, in particular income taxes arising from its operating activities in Puerto Rico, which are included in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. In addition, the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) are subject to income tax at regular corporate rates.

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.

The Company applies the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) guidance relating to uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a Company’s financial statements. Under this guidance the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, and accounting in interim periods. The Company records interest and penalties relating to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as income tax expense.

Concentration of Credit Risk — A concentration of credit risk arises in our business when a national or regionally-based tenant occupies a substantial amount of space in multiple properties owned by us. In that event, if the tenant suffers a significant downturn in its business, it may become unable to make its contractual rent payments to us, exposing us to potential losses in rental revenue, expense recoveries, and percentage rent. Further, the impact may be magnified if the tenant is renting space in multiple locations. Generally, we do not obtain security from our national or regionally-based tenants in support of their lease obligations to us. We regularly monitor our tenant base to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. None of our tenants accounted for more than 10% of total revenues in the year ended December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, The TJX Companies was our largest tenant with twenty-eight stores which comprised an aggregate of 873,159 sf and accounted for approximately $26.5 million, or 5.6% of our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging — At times, the Company may use derivative financial instruments to manage and mitigate exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on our variable rate debt. These derivatives are measured at fair value and are recognized as assets or liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, depending on the Company’s rights or obligations under the respective derivative contracts. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative varies based

on eligibility and Company elections, including the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate the derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting, and whether the hedge relationship has satisfied certain criteria to be deemed an effective hedge. Effectiveness of the hedging relationship is assessed on a quarterly basis by a third party to determine if the relationship still meets the criteria to be considered an effective hedge. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.

In a cash flow hedge, hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the earnings effect of the hedged transaction. A derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge is adjusted to fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The change in fair value, net of the amortization of the purchase price of the instrument, is deemed to be the effective portion of change and is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”) in the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, with the amortization of the purchase price included in interest and debt expense. Cash flows from the derivative are included in the prepaid expenses and other assets, or accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities line item in the statement of cash flows, depending on whether the hedged item is recognized as an asset or a liability. For further information on the Company’s derivative instruments and hedge designations, refer to Note 9.

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2024-03 Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosure (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which provides an update to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and provide more detailed information about the types of expenses, including purchase of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization in commonly presented expense captions such as cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses and research and development.
