As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the outstanding principal balance of the Warehouse Facility was zero and $457.2 million, respectively.

On March 1, 2021, the Company entered into a non-recourse carveout guaranty and certain wholly owned subsidiaries of VB Three, LLC (as borrowers) entered into a $500.0 million credit agreement (the “JPM Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (“JPM”).

On October 17, 2025, the OP, via its indirect subsidiaries, as borrowers, and the Company, as parent guarantor, entered into a loan agreement that provided for a $325.0 million loan (the “Barings Term Loan”) with Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company, MassMutual Ascend Life Insurance Company and Martello Re Limited, as lenders, which has been fully funded at an original issue discount of 3.0% of the Barings Term Loan. The Barings Term Loan is interest-only and matures on October 17, 2030. The loan bears interest at 5.44% per annum, payable monthly.

Asset Backed Securitization I

On December 6, 2023, the OP completed an asset backed securitization (“ABS”) transaction, in connection with which VineBrook Homes Borrower 1, LLC, an indirect special purpose subsidiary of the OP (the “ABS I Borrower”) entered into a loan agreement (the “ABS I Loan Agreement”) with Bank of America, National Association, as lender (the “ABS I Lender”), providing for a 5-year, fixed-rate, interest-only loan with a total principal balance of $392.2 million (the “ABS I Loan”).

Concurrent with the execution of the ABS I Loan Agreement, the ABS I Lender sold the ABS I Loan to VineBrook Homes Depositor A, LLC (the “Depositor”), an indirect subsidiary of the OP, which, in turn, transferred the ABS I Loan to a trust in exchange for (i) $178.4 million principal amount of Class A pass-through certificates (the “Class A Certificates”), (ii) $38.6 million principal amount of Class B pass-through certificates (the “Class B Certificates”), (iii) $30.8 million

principal amount of Class C pass-through certificates (the “Class C Certificates”), (iv) $43.0 million principal amount of Class D pass-through certificates (the “Class D Certificates”), (v) $50.1 million principal amount of Class E pass-through certificates (the “Class E1 Certificates”), (vi) $12.2 million principal amount of Class E pass-through certificates (the “Class E2 Certificates,” and collectively with the Class A Certificates, Class B Certificates, Class C Certificates, Class D Certificates and Class E1 Certificates, the “Regular Certificates”), and (vii) $39.1 million Class R pass-through certificates (the “Class R Certificates,” and together with the Regular Certificates, the “Certificates”). The Certificates represent beneficial ownership interests in the trust and its assets, including the ABS I Loan.

The Depositor sold the Certificates, acquired by the Depositor in the manner described above, to placement agents who resold the Certificates to investors in a private offering. The Regular Certificates are exempt from registration under the Securities Act and are “exempted securities” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). To satisfy applicable risk retention rules, the OP completed a securitization transaction, VINE 2023-SFR1, providing for a 5-year, fixed-rate, interest-only loan of Class F certificates (“Class F Certificates”) with a total principal amount of $39.1 million. The Company evaluated the purchased Class F Certificates as a variable interest in the trust and concluded that the Class F Certificates do not provide the Company with an ability to direct activities that could impact the trust’s economic performance. The Company does not consolidate the trust and the $39.1 million of purchased Class F Certificates are reflected as asset-backed securitization certificates in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Depositor used the proceeds from the sale of the Certificates to purchase the ABS I Loan from the ABS I Lender, as described above. The Regular Certificates were sold to investors at a discount and the OP retained the Class F Certificate (as described above), with the result that the proceeds, before closing costs, from the ABS I Loan to the ABS I Borrower were approximately $314.0 million. The net proceeds of $300.6 million were used to partially pay down the Warehouse Facility.

The ABS I Loan is collateralized by 2,641 single-family rental homes, and as of December 31, 2025, approximately 12.97% of the Portfolio served as collateral for outstanding borrowings under the ABS I Loan. The ABS I Loan is segregated into six tranches, all of which accrue interest at 4.9235% and have a maturity date of December 8, 2028.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the outstanding principal balance of the ABS I Loan was $366.9 million and $389.3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was zero remaining availability to be drawn on the ABS I Loan. The ABS I Loan, net of unamortized deferred financing costs, is included in notes payable on the consolidated balance sheets.

Asset Backed Securitization II

On February 29, 2024, the OP, via its indirect special purpose subsidiary, VineBrook Homes Borrower 2, LLC (the “ABS II Borrower”), completed an asset backed securitization (“ABS II”) and entered into a loan agreement (the “ABS II Loan Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc., as sole structuring agent, joint bookrunner and co-lead manager, Mizuho Securities USA LLC, as joint bookrunner and co-lead manager and Citizens JMP Securities, LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Raymond James & Associates, Inc., and Truist Securities, Inc., as co-managers (the “ABS II Loan”).

Concurrent with the execution of the ABS II Loan Agreement, the lender sold the ABS II Loan to the Depositor, an indirect subsidiary of the OP, which, in turn, transferred the loan to a trust in exchange for (i) $176.9 million principal amount of Class A pass-through certificates (the “ABS II Class A Certificates”), (ii) $38.6 million principal amount of Class B pass-through certificates (the “ABS II Class B Certificates”), (iii) $30.6 million principal amount of Class C pass-through certificates (the “ABS II Class C Certificates”), (iv) $42.9 million principal amount of Class D pass-through certificates (the “ABS II Class D Certificates”), (v) $63.5 million principal amount of Class E pass-through certificates (the “ABS II Class E1 Certificates”), (vi) $11.2 million principal amount of Class E pass-through certificates (the “ABS II Class E2 Certificates,” and collectively with the ABS II Class A Certificates, ABS II Class B Certificates, ABS II Class C Certificates, ABS II Class D Certificates and ABS II Class E1 Certificates, the “ABS II Regular Certificates”), and (vii) $39.9 million ABS II Class R pass-through certificates (the “ABS II Class R Certificates,” and together with the ABS II Regular Certificates, the “ABS II Certificates”). Initially, the OP retained $19.5 million of the ABS II Class A Certificates, $10.5 million of the ABS II Class B Certificates, and $2.0 million of the ABS II Class C Certificates. On July 11, 2024, the OP sold $10.5 million of the ABS

II Class B Certificates. On July 24, 2024, the OP sold $19.5 million of the ABS II Class A Certificates. On September 25, 2024, the OP sold $2.0 million of the ABS II Class C Certificates.

The Depositor sold the ABS II Certificates, acquired by the Depositor in the manner described above, to placement agents who resold the Certificates to investors in a private offering. The ABS II Regular Certificates are exempt from registration under the Securities Act and are “exempted securities” under the Exchange Act. To satisfy applicable risk retention rules, the OP purchased and retained the ABS II Class F component, totaling $39.9 million. Additionally, the OP purchased and retained a portion of the ABS II Class A, Class B and Class C components, totaling $19.5 million, $10.5 million and $2.0 million, respectively. The Company evaluated the purchased ABS II Class A, Class B, Class C and Class F certificates as a variable interest in the trust and concluded that the ABS II Class A, Class B, Class C and Class F certificates do not provide the Company with an ability to direct activities that could impact the trust’s economic performance. The Company does not consolidate the trust and the remaining $39.9 million of the ABS II Certificates are reflected as asset-backed securitization certificates on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. For the retained ABS II Class F certificate, the Company determined to classify the debt security as a held to maturity investment (see Note 2). The Depositor used the proceeds from the sale of the ABS II Certificates to purchase the ABS II Loan from the lender, as described above. The ABS II Regular Certificates were sold to investors at a discount and the OP retained the entire Class F certificate (as described above), with the result that the proceeds, before closing costs, from the ABS II Loan to the ABS II Borrower were approximately $331.8 million. A portion of the net proceeds from the ABS II were used to pay down $242.4 million on the JPM Facility and fund reserves per the credit agreement.

The ABS II Loan is collateralized by 2,423 single-family rental homes, and as of December 31, 2025, approximately 11.90% of the Portfolio served as collateral for outstanding borrowings under the ABS II Loan. The ABS II Loan is segregated into seven tranches, Components A through F, providing for a 5-year, fixed-rate, interest-only loan. The weighted average interest rate of the ABS II Regular Certificates (Class A through E2) is 4.6495% and have a maturity date of March 9, 2029.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the outstanding principal balance of the ABS II Loan was $397.12 million and $402.3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was zero remaining availability to be drawn on the ABS II Loan. The ABS II Loan, net of unamortized deferred financing costs, is included in notes payable on the consolidated balance sheets.

The MetLife Note was interest-only and had a maturity date of January 31, 2026.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the outstanding principal balance of the MetLife Note was zero and $104.3 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was zero remaining availability to be drawn on the MetLife Note. On October 17, 2025, the Company fully paid off the outstanding principal balance and interest on the MetLife Note.

Borrowings under the MetLife Term Loan I Facilities are secured by an equity pledge by VB Nine Equity, LLC and VB Ten Equity, LLC of their equity interests in VB Nine and VB Ten, respectively, and the property and assets held by VB Nine and VB Ten, respectively, and bear interest at a fixed rate equal to 4.5%. The MetLife Term Loan I Facilities are full-term, interest-only facilities that mature on August 22, 2029. The Company used $282.0 million of the proceeds to pay down a portion of the outstanding amounts under the Warehouse Facility.

Each reporting period, management evaluates the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with ASC 205-40, Going Concern, by evaluating conditions and events, including assessing the liquidity needs to meet obligations as they become due within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The Company has significant debt obligations of approximately $276.5 million coming due within 12 months of the financial statement issuance date, primarily due to the NexPoint Homes MetLife Note 1, which matures on March 3, 2027. As of the date of issuance, the Company does not have sufficient liquidity to satisfy these obligations. In order to satisfy obligations as they mature, management intends to evaluate its options and may seek to: (i) make partial loan pay downs, (ii) refinance the NexPoint Homes MetLife Note 1 and (iii) sell homes from its Portfolio and pay down debt balances with the net sale proceeds. The Company’s ability to meet its debt obligations as they come due is dependent upon its ability to meet debt covenants, which it currently projects to do, its ability to refinance debt and its ability to sell homes from its Portfolio to pay down the balances. The Company intends to refinance the NexPoint Homes MetLife Note 1 obligation primarily using debt or equity financing before it comes due. In considering whether it is probable the Company will refinance the maturing debt obligation prior to its maturity dates, the Company performed a comprehensive assessment including the Company’s historical ability to obtain financing, its creditworthiness based upon current and expected financial performance and leverage levels and current debt market conditions. As a result, the Company has concluded it is probable that the refinancing will be completed prior to the maturity date of the NexPoint Homes MetLife Note 1. There can be no assurances that financing can be obtained. The sale of homes from the portfolio could cause a decrease in net operating income but is expected to be offset by the interest savings from the pay downs. Management believes these plans by the Company will be sufficient to satisfy the obligations as they become due. These financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with GAAP and this basis assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Deferred Financing Costs

The Company defers costs incurred in obtaining financing and amortizes the costs over the term of the related debt using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. Deferred financing costs, net of amortization, are recorded as a reduction from the related debt on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Upon repayment of, or in conjunction with, a material change in the terms of the underlying debt agreement, any unamortized costs are charged to loss on extinguishment of debt. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, amortization of deferred financing costs of approximately $11.4 million, $13.3 million and $9.8 million, respectively, and amortization of loan discounts of approximately $19.1 million, $13.4 million and zero, respectively, are included in interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
