Stockholders' Equity

Note 6 – Stockholders' Equity:

Universal Shelf Registration Statement. In August 2026, NNN filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") which became automatically effective ("Universal Shelf"). The Universal Shelf permits the issuance by NNN of an indeterminate amount of debt and equity securities, including preferred stock, depositary shares, common stock, stock purchase contracts, rights, warrants and units. NNN may periodically offer one or more of these securities in amounts, prices and on terms to be announced when and if these securities are offered. The specifics of any future offerings along with the use of proceeds of any securities offered, will be described in detail in a prospectus supplement, or other offering materials, at the time of any offering.

 

 

 

 

 

 

At-The-Market Offerings. NNN has established an ATM which allows NNN to sell shares of common stock. The following outlines NNN's ATM (dollars in thousands):

(1)

NNN may physically settle the forward sale agreements (by the delivery of shares of common stock) and receive proceeds from the sales of those shares on one or more forward settlement dates, which shall occur no later than January 2028.

(2)

Includes impact of forward price adjustments through September 30, 2026. Subject to certain conditions, NNN has the right to elect cash or net share settlement rather than physical settlement of the forward sale agreements, which, if elected, could result in cash outflows rather than share issuances. NNN currently intends to physically settle its forward sale agreements.
