PART I

Item 1.    Business.

General

        We are a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, also known as a REIT. We were incorporated in Maryland on December 20, 1982. We acquire, own and manage a geographically diversified portfolio, consisting primarily of retail, industrial, flex and health and fitness properties, many of which are subject to long-term leases. Many of our leases are "net leases" and ground leases under which the tenant is typically responsible for real estate taxes, insurance and ordinary maintenance and repairs. As of December 31, 2016, we own 114 properties and participate in joint ventures that own five properties. These 119 properties are located in 30 states and have an aggregate of approximately 10.1 million square feet (including an aggregate of approximately 1.2 million square feet at properties owned by our joint ventures).

        As of December 31, 2016:

•

our 2017 contractual rental income (as described below) is $65.8 million.



•

the occupancy rate of our properties is 97.3% based on square footage.



•

the occupancy rate of properties owned by our joint ventures is 97.9% based on square footage.



•

the weighted average remaining term of our mortgage debt is 9.3 years and the weighted average interest rate thereon is 4.27%.



•

the weighted average remaining term of the leases generating our 2017 contractual rental income and for the leases at properties owned by our joint ventures is 8.9 years and 2.8 years, respectively.

        Our 2017 contractual rental income represents, after giving effect to any abatements, concessions or adjustments, the base rent payable to us in 2017 under leases in effect at December 31, 2016. Excluded from 2017 contractual rental income are approximately $875,000 of straight-line rent, amortization of approximately $998,000 of intangibles, and our share of the base rent payable to our joint ventures, which in 2017 is approximately $2.8 million.

2016 Highlights and Recent Developments

        In 2016:

•

our rental income, net, increased by $5.2 million, or 8.8%, to $64.2 million, from $59.0 million in 2015.



•

we acquired 11 properties for an aggregate purchase price of $118.6 million, including new mortgage debt of $25.6 million. The acquired properties account for $9.1 million, or 13.9%, of our 2017 contractual rental income.



•

we sold 12 properties (including a portfolio of eight convenience stores) for a net gain on sale of real estate of $10.0 million—the properties sold accounted for 1.8% of 2016 rental income.



•

we obtained gross proceeds of $137.6 million from mortgage financings (including acquisition mortgage debt of $25.6 million), and refinancings.



•

we increased our quarterly dividend 4.9% to $0.43 per share, commencing with the dividend declared in December 2016 and paid in January 2017.



•

we raised approximately $25.8 million from the issuance of 1,080,000 shares of common stock pursuant to our at-the-market equity offering program.

•

we renewed, extended and/or entered into leases covering more than one million square feet, including leases with two tenants that in the aggregate account for approximately 6.3% of 2017 contractual rental income.



•

we amended and restated our credit facility to increase to up to $100 million the amount available for borrowing thereunder and extended the facility's maturity date to December 31, 2019.



•

we agreed to sell our vacant Greenwood Village, Colorado property previously tenanted by Sports Authority. Completion of the transaction is subject to satisfaction of specified conditions. We anticipate that this transaction will be completed in the 2^nd half of 2017 and that our gain from this sale will range from approximately $5 million to $7 million. We can provide no assurance that the sale will be completed or that the anticipated gain will be recognized.

        In the narrative portion of this Annual Report on Form 10-K:

•

the information with respect to our consolidated joint ventures is generally described as if such ventures are our wholly owned subsidiaries and information with respect to unconsolidated joint ventures is generally separately described,



•

except as otherwise indicated, (i) all references to joint ventures refer to unconsolidated joint ventures, (ii) all interest rates with respect to debt give effect to the related interest rate derivative, if any, (iii) amounts reflected as debt, reflects the gross debt owed, without deducting deferred financing costs, and (iv) square footage and terms of like import refers to the total square footage of the applicable building, including common areas, if any, and



•

2017 contractual rental income derived from multiple properties leased pursuant to a master lease is allocated among such properties based on management's estimate of the appropriate allocations.

Acquisition Strategies

        We seek to acquire properties throughout the United States that have locations, demographics and other investment attributes that we believe to be attractive. We believe that long-term leases provide a predictable income stream over the term of the lease, making fluctuations in market rental rates and in real estate values less significant to achieving our overall investment objectives. Our primary goal is to acquire single-tenant properties that are subject to long-term net or ground leases that include periodic contractual rental increases or rent increases based on increases in the consumer price index. Periodic contractual rental increases provide reliable increases in future rent payments and rent increases based on the consumer price index provide protection against inflation. Historically, long-term leases have made it easier for us to obtain longer-term, fixed-rate mortgage financing with principal amortization, thereby moderating the interest rate risk associated with financing or refinancing our property portfolio and reducing the outstanding principal balance over time. We may, however, acquire a property that is subject to a short-term lease when we believe the property represents a good opportunity for recurring income and residual value. Although the acquisition of single-tenant properties subject to net and ground leases is the focus of our investment strategy, we also consider investments in, among other things, (i) properties that can be re-positioned or re-developed, (ii) community shopping centers anchored by national or regional tenants and (iii) properties ground leased to operators of multi-family properties. We pay substantially all the operating expenses at community shopping centers, a significant portion of which is reimbursed by tenants pursuant to their leases.

        Generally, we hold the properties we acquire for an extended period of time. Our investment criteria are intended to identify properties from which increased asset value and overall return can be realized from an extended period of ownership. Although our investment criteria favor an extended period of ownership, we will dispose of a property if we regard the disposition of the property as an

2

opportunity to realize the overall value of the property sooner or to avoid future risks by achieving a determinable return from the property.

        We identify properties through the network of contacts of our senior management and our affiliates, which contacts include real estate brokers, private equity firms, banks and law firms. In addition, we attend industry conferences and engage in direct solicitations.

        Our charter documents do not limit the number of properties in which we may invest, the amount or percentage of our assets that may be invested in any specific property or property type, or the concentration of investments in any region in the United States. We do not intend to acquire properties located outside of the United States. We will continue to form entities to acquire interests in real properties, either alone or with other investors, and we may acquire interests in joint ventures or other entities that own real property.

        It is our policy, and the policy of our affiliated entities, that any investment opportunity presented to us or to any of our affiliated entities that involves the acquisition of a net leased property, a ground lease or a community shopping center, will first be offered to us and may not be pursued by any of our affiliated entities unless we decline the opportunity. Further, to the extent our affiliates are unable or unwilling to pursue an acquisition of a multi-family property (including a ground lease of a multi-family property), we may pursue such transaction if it meets our investment objectives.

Investment Evaluation

        In evaluating potential investments, we consider, among other criteria, the following:

•

the current and projected cash flow of the property;



•

the estimated return on equity to us;



•

an evaluation of the property and improvements, given its location and use;



•

local demographics (population and rental trends);



•

the terms of tenant leases, including co-tenancy provisions and the relationship between current rents and market rents;



•

the ability of a tenant, if a net leased property, or major tenants, if a multi-tenant property, to meet operational needs and lease obligations;



•

an evaluation of the credit quality of the tenant;



•

the projected residual value of the property;



•

the potential to finance or refinance the property;



•

potential for income and capital appreciation;



•

occupancy of and demand for similar properties in the market area; and



•

alternate uses or tenants for the property.

Our Business Objective

        Our business objective is to maintain and increase, over time, the cash available for distribution to our stockholders by:

•

identifying opportunistic and strategic property acquisitions consistent with our portfolio and our acquisition strategies;

3

Table of Contents

•

obtaining mortgage indebtedness (including refinancings) on favorable terms and maintaining access to capital to finance property acquisitions; and



•

monitoring and maintaining our portfolio, including tenant negotiations and lease amendments with tenants that are renewing, expanding or having financial difficulty; and



•

managing our portfolio effectively, including opportunistic and strategic property sales.

Typical Property Attributes

        As of December 31, 2016, the properties in our portfolio and those owned by our joint ventures typically have the following attributes:

•

Net or ground leases.  Many of our leases are net and ground leases under which the tenant is typically responsible for real estate taxes, insurance and ordinary maintenance and repairs. We believe that investments in net and ground leased properties offer reasonably predictable returns;



•

Long-term leases.  Many of our leases are long-term leases. Excluding leases relating to properties owned by our joint ventures, the weighted average remaining term of our leases is 8.9 years, leases representing approximately 37.1% of our 2017 contractual rental income expire between 2022 and 2025, and leases representing approximately 40.8% of our 2017 contractual rental income expire after 2026; and



•

Scheduled rent increases.  Leases representing approximately 80.8% of our 2017 contractual rental income and leases representing 28.0% of our share of the base rent payable in 2017 with respect to properties owned by joint ventures provide for either periodic contractual rent increases or a rent increase based on the consumer price index.

Our Tenants

        The following table sets forth information about the diversification of our tenants by industry sector as of December 31, 2016:

4

---

Table of Contents

        Many of our tenants (including franchisees of national chains) operate on a national basis and include, among others, Advanced Auto, Applebees, Barnes & Noble, Burlington Coat Factory, CarMax, CVS, Famous Footwear, FedEx, Ferguson Enterprises, Kohl's, LA Fitness, Marshalls, Men's Wearhouse, Northern Tool, Office Depot, Party City, PetSmart, Ross Stores, Shutterfly, TGI Friday's, The Toro Company, Urban Outfitters, Walgreens, Wendy's and Whole Foods and some of our tenants operate on a regional basis, including Haverty Furniture, Giant Food Stores and hhgregg.

Our Leases

        Many of our leases are net or ground leases (including the leases entered into by our joint ventures) under which the tenant, in addition to its rental obligation, typically is responsible for expenses attributable to the operation of the property, such as real estate taxes and assessments, water and sewer rents and other charges. The tenant is also generally responsible for maintaining the property and for restoration following a casualty or partial condemnation. The tenant is typically obligated to indemnify us for claims arising from the property and is responsible for maintaining insurance coverage for the property it leases and naming us an additional insured. Under some net leases, we are responsible for structural repairs, including foundation and slab, roof repair or replacement and restoration following a casualty event, and at several properties we are responsible for certain expenses related to the operation and maintenance of the property.

        Our typical lease provides for contractual rent increases periodically throughout the term of the lease or for rent increases pursuant to a formula based on the consumer price index. Some of our leases provide for minimum rents supplemented by additional payments based on sales derived from the property subject to the lease (i.e., percentage rent). Percentage rent contributed less than and is expected to contribute less than $50,000 to 2016 rental income and 2017 rental income, respectively.

        Generally, our strategy is to acquire properties that are subject to existing long-term leases or to enter into long-term leases with our tenants. Our leases generally provide the tenant with one or more renewal options.

        The following table sets forth scheduled lease expirations of leases for our properties as of December 31, 2016:

Financing, Re-Renting and Disposition of Our Properties

        Our charter documents do not limit the level of debt we may incur. Our revolving credit facility matures on December 31, 2019 and, among other things, limits total debt that we may incur to 70% of the total value of our properties (as determined pursuant to the credit facility). We borrow funds on a secured and unsecured basis and intend to continue to do so in the future.

        We mortgage specific properties on a non-recourse basis, subject to the standard carve-outs described under "Item 2. Properties—Mortgage Debt", to enhance the return on our investment in a specific property. The proceeds of mortgage loans may be used for property acquisitions, investments in joint ventures or other entities that own real property, to reduce bank debt and for working capital purposes. The funds available pursuant to our credit facility may be used to payoff existing mortgages, fund the acquisition of additional properties, and to a more limited extent, invest in joint ventures and for working capital. Net proceeds received from the sale, financing or refinancing of properties are generally required to be used to repay amounts outstanding under our credit facility.

        With respect to properties we acquire on a free and clear basis, we usually seek to obtain long-term fixed-rate mortgage financing, when available at acceptable terms, shortly after the acquisition of such property to avoid the risk of movement of interest rates and fluctuating supply and demand in the mortgage markets. We also will acquire a property that is subject to (and will assume) a fixed-rate mortgage. Substantially all of our mortgages provide for amortization of part of the principal balance during the term, thereby reducing the refinancing risk at maturity. Some of our properties may be financed on a cross-defaulted or cross-collateralized basis, and we may collateralize a single financing with more than one property.

        After termination or expiration of any lease relating to any of our properties, we will seek to re-rent or sell such property in a manner that will maximize the return to us, considering, among other factors, the income potential and market value of such property. We acquire properties for long-term investment for income purposes and do not typically engage in the turnover of investments. We will consider the sale of a property if a sale appears advantageous in view of our investment objectives. If there is a substantial tax gain, we may seek to enter into a tax deferred transaction and reinvest the proceeds in another property. Cash realized from the sale of properties, net of required payoffs of the related mortgage debt, if any, required paydowns of our credit facility, and distributions to stockholders, is available for general working capital purposes and the acquisition of additional properties.

Our Joint Ventures

        As of December 31, 2016, we participated in five joint ventures that own an aggregate of five properties, with approximately 1.2 million square feet of space. Four of the properties are retail properties and one is an industrial property. We own 50% of the equity interest in all of these joint ventures. At December 31, 2016, our investment in joint ventures was approximately $10.8 million.

        Based on the leases in effect at December 31, 2016, we anticipate that our share of the base rent payable in 2017 to our joint ventures is approximately $2.8 million. Leases for two properties are expected to contribute 87.9% of the aggregate projected base rent payable to all of our joint ventures in 2017. Leases with respect to 53.5%, 19.4% and 27.1% of the aggregate projected base rent payable to all of our joint ventures in 2017, is payable pursuant to leases expiring from 2017 to 2018, from 2019 to 2020, and thereafter, respectively.

Competition

        We face competition for the acquisition of properties from a variety of investors, including domestic and foreign corporations and real estate companies, financial institutions, insurance companies, pension funds, investment funds, other REITs and individuals, some of which have significant advantages over us, including a larger, more diverse group of properties and greater financial and other resources than we have.

Our Structure

        Eight employees, including Patrick J. Callan, Jr., our president and chief executive officer, Lawrence G. Ricketts, Jr., our executive vice president and chief operating officer, Justin Clair, a vice-president, Karen Dunleavy, vice president-financial and four other employees, devote all of their business time to us. Our other executive, administrative, legal, accounting and clerical personnel provide their services to us on a part-time basis pursuant to the compensation and services agreement described below.

        We entered into a compensation and services agreement with Majestic Property Management Corp., effective as of January 1, 2007. Majestic Property is wholly-owned by our vice chairman of the board and it provides compensation to certain of our executive officers. Pursuant to this agreement, we pay fees to Majestic Property and Majestic Property provides us with the services of all affiliated executive, administrative, legal, accounting and clerical personnel that we use on a part time basis, as well as property management services, property acquisition, sales and leasing and mortgage brokerage services. The fees we pay Majestic Property are negotiated by us and Majestic Property in consultation with our audit and compensation committees, and are approved by these committees and our independent directors.

        In 2016, pursuant to the compensation and services agreement, we paid Majestic Property a fee of approximately $2.5 million and $196,000 for our share of all direct office expenses, including, among other expenses, rent, telephone, postage, computer services and internet usage. Included in the $2.5 million fee is $1.1 million for property management services–the fee for the property management services is based on 1.5% and 2.0% of the rental payments (including tenant reimbursements) actually received by us from net lease tenants and operating lease tenants, respectively. Property management fees are not paid with respect to properties managed by third parties. Based on our portfolio of properties at December 31, 2016, we estimate that the property management fee in 2017 will be approximately $1.2 million.

        We believe that the compensation and services agreement allows us to benefit from (i) access to, and from the services of, a group of senior executives with significant knowledge and experience in the real estate industry and our company, (ii) other individuals who perform services on our behalf, and (iii) general economies of scale. If not for this agreement, we believe that a company of our size would not have access to the skills and expertise of these executives at the cost that we have incurred and will incur in the future. For a description of the background of our management, please see the information under the heading "Executive Officers" in Part I of this Annual Report. See Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements for information regarding equity awards to individuals performing services on our behalf pursuant to the compensation and services agreement.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors.

        Set forth below is a discussion of certain risks affecting our business. The categorization of risks set forth below is meant to help you better understand the risks facing our business and is not intended to limit your consideration of the possible effects of these risks to the listed categories. Any adverse effects arising from the realization of any of the risks discussed, including our financial condition and results of operation, may, and likely will, adversely affect many aspects of our business.

        In addition to the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-K, readers should carefully consider the following risk factors:

Risks Related to Our Business

Approximately 49.1% of our 2017 contractual rental income is derived from tenants operating in the retail industry and the failure of those tenants to pay rent would significantly reduce our revenues.

        Approximately 49.1% of our 2017 contractual rental income is derived from retail tenants, including 9.0% from tenants engaged in retail furniture (i.e., Haverty Furniture accounts for 7.1% of 2017 contractual rental income) and 3.7% from tenants engaged in office supply activities (i.e., Office Depot accounts for 3.7% of 2017 contractual rental income).

        Various factors could cause our retail tenants to close their locations, including difficult economic conditions and e-commerce competition. The failure of our retail tenants to meet their lease obligations, including rent payment obligations, due to these and other factors, may make it difficult for us to satisfy our operating and debt service requirements, make capital expenditures and pay dividends.

If we are unable to re-rent properties upon the expiration of our leases or if our tenants default or seek bankruptcy protection, our rental income will be reduced and we would incur additional costs.

        Substantially all of our rental income is derived from rent paid by our tenants. From 2017 through 2019, leases with respect to 49 tenants that account for 10.0% of our 2017 contractual rental income, expire. If our tenants, and in particular, our significant tenants, (i) do not renew their leases upon the expiration of same, (ii) default on their obligations or (iii) seek rent relief, lease renegotiation or other accommodations, our revenues could decline and, in certain cases, co-tenancy provisions may be triggered possibly allowing other tenants at the same property to reduce their rental payments or terminate their leases. At the same time, we would remain responsible for the payment of the mortgage obligations with respect to the related properties and would become responsible for the operating expenses related to these properties, including, among other things, real estate taxes, maintenance and insurance. In addition, we may incur expenses in enforcing our rights as landlord. Even if we find replacement tenants or renegotiate leases with current tenants, the terms of the new or renegotiated leases, including the cost of required renovations or concessions to tenants, or the expense of the reconfiguration of a tenant's space, may be less favorable than current lease terms and could reduce the amount of cash available to meet expenses and pay dividends. During the 19 months ended December 31, 2016, three properties became (and remain) vacant, the former tenants are no longer

paying rent, we have been unable to re-lease such properties and we anticipate expending an estimated $78,000 per month (including operating and interest expense), in maintaining these properties until they are re-leased or sold, as to which no assurance can be given. Further, Kmart Holding Corp., hhgregg, Inc. and TVI, Inc (a/k/a Savers Thrift Superstores), tenants at our properties (including a property owned by an unconsolidated joint venture), have announced that they intend to close stores located at our properties and hhgregg has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. If tenants facing financial difficulties default on their obligation to pay rent or do not renew their leases at lease expiration, our results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected. See "Item 7. Management's Discusson and Analysis of Financial Condition or Results of Operations—Other Developments" for further information with respect to our Kmart, hhgregg and Savers Thrift Superstores properties.

Approximately 23.4% of our 2017 contractual rental income is derived from five tenants. The default, financial distress or failure of any of these tenants could significantly reduce our revenues.

        Haverty Furniture, LA Fitness, Northern Tool, Office Depot and Ferguson Enterprises account for approximately 7.1%, 4.7%, 4.2%, 3.7% and 3.7%, respectively, of our 2017 contractual rental income. The default, financial distress or bankruptcy of any of these tenants could cause interruptions in the receipt of, or the loss of, a significant amount of rental income and would require us to pay operating expenses (including real estate taxes) currently paid by the tenant. This could also result in the vacancy of the property or properties occupied by the defaulting tenant, which would significantly reduce our rental revenues and net income until the re-rental of the property or properties, and could decrease the ultimate sale value of the property.

Declines in the value of our properties could result in impairment charges.

        If we are presented with indications of an impairment in the value of a particular property or group of properties, we will be required to evaluate any such property or properties. If we determine that any of our properties at which indicators of impairment exist have a fair market value below the net book value of such property, we will be required to recognize an impairment charge for the difference between the fair value and the book value during the quarter in which we make such determination; such impairment charges may then increase in subsequent quarters. This evaluation may lead us to write off any straight-line rent receivable balance recorded with respect to such property. In addition, we may incur losses from time to time if we dispose of properties for sales prices that are less than our book value.

Competition that traditional retail tenants face from e-commerce retail sales could adversely affect our business.

        Our retail tenants face increasing competition from e-commerce retailers. These retailers may be able to provide customers with better pricing and the ease and comfort of shopping from their home or office. E-commerce sales have been obtaining an increasing percentage of retail sales over the past few years and this trend is expected to continue. The continued growth of e-commerce sales could decrease the need for traditional retail outlets and reduce retailers' space and property requirements. This could adversely impact our ability to rent space at our retail properties and increase competition for retail tenants thereby reducing the rent we would receive at these properties and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

If we are unable to refinance our mortgage loans at maturity, we may be forced to sell properties at disadvantageous terms, which would result in the loss of revenues and in a decline in the value of our portfolio.

        We had, as of December 31, 2016, $399.2 million in mortgage debt outstanding, all of which is non-recourse (subject to standard carve-outs) and our ratio of mortgage debt to total assets was 54.4%. Our joint ventures had $36.0 million in total mortgage indebtedness (all of which is non-recourse, subject to standard carve-outs). The risks associated with our mortgage debt and the mortgage debt of our joint ventures include the risk that cash flow from properties securing the indebtedness and our available cash and cash equivalents will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest.

        Generally, only a relatively small portion of the principal of our mortgage indebtedness will be repaid prior to or at maturity and we do not plan to retain sufficient cash to repay such indebtedness at maturity. Accordingly, to meet these obligations if they cannot be refinanced at maturity, we will have to use funds available under our credit facility, if any, and our available cash and cash equivalents to pay our mortgage debt or seek to raise funds through the financing of unencumbered properties, sale of properties or the issuance of additional equity. From 2017 through 2021, approximately $89.2 million of our mortgage debt matures—specifically, $19.1 million in 2017, $20.5 million in 2018, $14.2 million in 2019, $14.9 million in 2020 and $20.5 million in 2021. With respect to our joint ventures, approximately $7.9 million of mortgage debt matures from 2017 through 2021—specifically, $903,000 in 2017, $4.3 million in 2018, $877,000 in 2019, $911,000 in 2020, and $948,000 in 2021. If we (or our joint ventures) are unsuccessful in refinancing or extending existing mortgage indebtedness or financing unencumbered properties, selling properties on favorable terms or raising additional equity, our cash flow (or the cash flow of a joint venture) will not be sufficient to repay all maturing mortgage debt when payments become due, and we (or a joint venture) may be forced to dispose of properties on disadvantageous terms or convey properties secured by mortgages to the mortgagees, which would lower our revenues and the value of our portfolio.

        We may find that the value of a property could be less than the mortgage secured by such property. We may also have to decide whether we should refinance or pay off a mortgage on a property at which the mortgage matures prior to lease expiration and the tenant may not renew the lease. In these types of situations, after evaluating various factors, including among other things, the tenant's competitive position in the applicable submarket, our and our tenant's estimates of its prospects, consideration of alternative uses and opportunities to re-purpose or re-let the property, we may seek to renegotiate the terms of the mortgage, or to the extent that the loan is non-recourse and the terms of the mortgage cannot be satisfactorily renegotiated, forfeit the property by conveying it to the mortgagee and writing off our investment.

If our borrowings increase, the risk of default on our repayment obligations and our debt service requirements will also increase.

        The terms of our revolving credit facility limit our ability to incur indebtedness, including limiting the total indebtedness that we may incur to an amount equal to 70% of the total value (as defined in the credit facility) of our properties. Increased leverage could result in increased risk of default on our payment obligations related to borrowings and in an increase in debt service requirements, which could reduce our net income and the amount of cash available to meet expenses and to pay dividends.

If a significant number of our tenants default or fail to renew expiring leases, or we take impairment charges against our properties, a breach of our revolving credit facility could occur.

        Our revolving credit facility includes covenants that require us to maintain certain financial ratios and comply with other requirements. If our tenants default under their leases with us or fail to renew

11

Table of Contents

expiring leases, generally accepted accounting principles may require us to recognize impairment charges against our properties, and our financial position could be adversely affected causing us to be in breach of the financial covenants contained in our credit facility.

        Failure to meet interest and other payment obligations under our revolving credit facility or a breach by us of the covenants to maintain the financial ratios would place us in default under our credit facility, and, if the banks called a default and required us to repay the full amount outstanding under the credit facility, we might be required to rapidly dispose of our properties, which could have an adverse impact on the amounts we receive on such disposition. If we are unable to dispose of our properties in a timely fashion to the satisfaction of the banks, the banks could foreclose on that portion of our collateral pledged to the banks, which could result in the disposition of our properties at below market values. The disposition of our properties at below our carrying value would adversely affect our net income, reduce our stockholders' equity and adversely affect our ability to pay dividends.

Impairment charges against owned real estate may not be adequate to cover actual losses.

        Impairment charges are based on an evaluation of known risks and economic factors. The determination of an appropriate level of impairment charges is an inherently difficult process and is based on numerous assumptions. The amount of impairment charges of real estate is susceptible to changes in economic, operating and other conditions that are largely beyond our control. Any impairment charges that we may take may not be adequate to cover actual losses and we may need to take additional impairment charges in the future. Actual losses and additional impairment charges in the future could materially affect our results of operations.

If interest rates increase or credit markets tighten, it may be more difficult for us to secure financing, which may limit our ability to finance or refinance our real estate properties, reduce the number of properties we can acquire, and adversely affect your investment.

        Increases in interest rates or reduced access to credit markets may make it difficult for us to finance or refinance mortgage debt, limit the mortgage debt available on properties we wish to acquire and limit the properties we can acquire. Even in the event that we are able to secure mortgage debt on, or otherwise finance our real estate properties, due to increased costs associated with securing financing and other factors beyond our control, we may be unable to refinance the entire outstanding loan balance or be subject to unfavorable terms (such as higher loan fees, interest rates and periodic payments) if we do refinance the loan balance. Either of these results could reduce income from those properties and reduce cash available for dividends, which may adversely affect the investment goals of our stockholders.

        Interest rates have been at historically low levels the past several years. If we are required to refinance mortgage debt that matures over the next several years at higher interest rates than such mortgage debt currently bears, the funds available for dividends may be significantly reduced. The following table sets forth, as of December 31, 2016, the principal balance of the mortgage payments

due at maturity on our properties and the weighted average interest rate thereon (dollars in thousands):

If our ground lease tenants defer rent payments, our rental income and cash flow may be adversely effected.

        An aggregate of approximately $3.7 million, or 5.6%, of 2017 contractual rental income is attributable to three separate ground leases(i.e., 1.7%, 1.6% and 2.3% of 2017 contractual rental income), improved by multi-family complexes. The obligation of each ground lease tenant, the owner/operator of the multi-family complex, to pay base rent is deferred if and to the extent the monthly operating performance at the applicable multi-family property in a given month is less than the monthly rent payable to us. The owner/operators of these complexes are affiliated with one another. The aggregate carrying value of our land which is subject to these ground leases was $34.0 million at December 31, 2016 (i.e., $9.6 million, $10.5 million and $13.9 million) and is subordinate to an aggregate of $150.7 million of mortgage debt incurred by these tenants.

        If one or more of these ground lease tenants defer the payment of rent, our rental income and cash flow would be adversely effected. If the mortgage payments are not made by our tenants or us (to the extent we are permitted to pay same), and we are forced to sell our interests or our interest is foreclosed upon, we may incur a significant impairment charge. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Off Balance Sheet Arrangements" and notes 4 and 6 to our consolidated financial statements.

Certain of our net leases and our ground leases require us to pay property related expenses that are not the obligations of our tenants.

        Under the terms of substantially all of our net leases, in addition to satisfying their rent obligations, our tenants are responsible for the payment of real estate taxes, insurance and ordinary maintenance and repairs. However, under the provisions of certain net and ground leases, we are required to pay some expenses, such as the costs of environmental liabilities, roof and structural repairs, insurance premiums, certain non-structural repairs and maintenance. If our properties incur significant expenses that must be paid by us under the terms of our leases, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected and the amount of cash available to meet expenses and pay dividends may be reduced.

Uninsured and underinsured losses may affect the revenues generated by, the value of, and the return from a property affected by a casualty or other claim.

        Substantially all of our tenants obtain, for our benefit, comprehensive insurance covering our properties in amounts that are intended to be sufficient to provide for the replacement of the improvements at each property. However, the amount of insurance coverage maintained for any property may not be sufficient to pay the full replacement cost of the improvements at the property following a casualty event. In addition, the rent loss coverage under the policy may not extend for the full period of time that a tenant may be entitled to a rent abatement as a result of, or that may be

13

required to complete restoration following, a casualty event. In addition, there are certain types of losses, such as those arising from earthquakes, floods, hurricanes and terrorist attacks, that may be uninsurable or that may not be economically insurable. Changes in zoning, building codes and ordinances, environmental considerations and other factors also may make it impossible or impracticable for us to use insurance proceeds to replace damaged or destroyed improvements at a property. If restoration is not or cannot be completed to the extent, or within the period of time, specified in certain of our leases, the tenant may have the right to terminate the lease. If any of these or similar events occur, it may reduce our revenues, the value of, or our return from, an affected property.

Our revenues and the value of our portfolio are affected by a number of factors that affect investments in real estate generally.

        We are subject to the general risks of investing in real estate. These include adverse changes in economic conditions and local conditions such as changing demographics, retailing trends and traffic patterns, declines in the rental rates, changes in the supply and price of quality properties and the market supply and demand of competing properties, the impact of environmental laws, security concerns, prepayment penalties applicable under mortgage financings, changes in tax, zoning, building code, fire safety and other laws and regulations, the type of insurance coverage available in the market, and changes in the type, capacity and sophistication of building systems. Approximately 49.1% and 27.3% of our 2017 contractual rental income is from retail and industrial tenants, respectively, and we are vulnerable to economic declines that negatively impact these sectors of the economy, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.

Our revenues and the value of our portfolio are affected by a number of factors that affect investments in leased real estate generally.

        We are subject to the general risks of investing in leased real estate. These include the non-performance of lease obligations by tenants, leasehold improvements that will be costly or difficult to remove should it become necessary to re-rent the leased space for other uses, covenants in certain retail leases that limit the types of tenants to which available space can be rented (which may limit demand or reduce the rents realized on re-renting), rights of termination of leases due to events of casualty or condemnation affecting the leased space or the property or due to interruption of the tenant's quiet enjoyment of the leased premises, and obligations of a landlord to restore the leased premises or the property following events of casualty or condemnation. The occurrence of any of these events could adversely impact our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.

Real estate investments are relatively illiquid and their values may decline.

        Real estate investments are relatively illiquid. Therefore, we will be limited in our ability to reconfigure our real estate portfolio in response to economic changes. We may encounter difficulty in disposing of properties when tenants vacate either at the expiration of the applicable lease or otherwise. If we decide to sell any of our properties, our ability to sell these properties and the prices we receive on their sale may be affected by many factors, including the number of potential buyers, the number of competing properties on the market and other market conditions, as well as whether the property is leased and if it is leased, the terms of the lease. As a result, we may be unable to sell our properties for an extended period of time without incurring a loss, which would adversely affect our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.

The concentration of our properties in certain states may make our revenues and the value of our portfolio vulnerable to adverse changes in local economic conditions.

        Many of the properties we own are located in the same or a limited number of geographic regions. Approximately 42.0% of our 2017 contractual rental income will be derived from properties located in five states—Texas (13.0%), South Carolina (8.6%), New York (7.9%), Illinois (6.8%) and Georgia (5.7%). At December 31, 2016, approximately 41.1% of the net book value of our real estate investments was located in five states—Texas (12.8%), South Carolina (10.0%), Illinois (6.2%), Tennessee (6.2%) and Pennsylvania (5.9%). As a result, a decline in the economic conditions in these states (including a decline in Texas as a result of challenges facing the oil industry) or in regions where our properties may be concentrated in the future, may have an adverse effect on the rental and occupancy rates for, and the property values of, these properties, which could lead to a reduction in our rental income and in the results of operations.

We have been, and in the future will be, subject to significant competition and we may not be able to compete successfully for investments.

        We have been, and in the future will be, subject to significant competition for attractive investment opportunities from other real estate investors, many of which have greater financial resources than us, including publicly-traded REITs, non-traded REITs, insurance companies, commercial and investment banking firms, private institutional funds, hedge funds, private equity funds and other investors. We may not be able to compete successfully for investments. If we pay higher prices for investments, our returns may be lower and the value of our assets may not increase or may decrease significantly below the amount we paid for such assets. If such events occur, we may experience lower returns on our investments.

We cannot assure you of our ability to pay dividends in the future.

        We intend to pay quarterly dividends and to make distributions to our stockholders in amounts such that all or substantially all of our taxable income in each year is distributed. This, along with other factors, will enable us to qualify for the tax benefits accorded to a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "IRC"). We have not established a minimum dividend payment level and our ability to pay dividends may be adversely affected by the risk factors described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. All distributions will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our earnings (including taxable income), our financial condition, maintenance of our REIT status and such other factors as our board of directors may deem relevant from time to time.

If we reduce our dividend, the market value of our common stock may decline.

        The level of our common stock dividend is established by our board of directors from time to time based on a variety of factors, including our cash available for distribution, funds from operations, adjusted funds from operations and maintenance of our REIT status. Various factors could cause our board of directors to decrease our dividend level, including insufficient income to cover our dividends, tenant defaults or bankruptcies resulting in a material reduction in our funds from operations or a material loss resulting from an adverse change in the value of one or more of our properties. If our board of directors determines to reduce our common stock dividend, the market value of our common stock could be adversely affected.

Our current and future investments in joint ventures could be adversely affected by the lack of sole decision making authority, reliance on joint venture partners' financial condition, disputes that may arise between our joint venture partners and us and our reliance on one significant joint venture partner.

        A number of properties in which we have an interest are owned through consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures. We may continue to acquire properties through joint ventures and/or contribute some of our properties to joint ventures. Investments in joint ventures may, under certain circumstances, involve risks not present when a third party is not involved, including the possibility that joint venture partners might file for bankruptcy protection, or fail to fund their share of required capital contributions. Further, joint venture partners may have conflicting business interests or goals, and as a result there is the potential risk of impasses on decisions, such as a sale and the timing thereof. Any disputes that may arise between joint venture partners and us may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses and prevent our officers and/or directors from focusing their time and effort on our business. Consequently, actions by or disputes with joint venture partners might result in subjecting properties owned by the joint venture to additional risk. With respect to our (i) consolidated joint ventures, we own, with two joint venture partners and their respective affiliates, six properties that account for 5.7% of 2017 contractual rental income (and we own one property with one of these joint venture partners through an unconsolidated joint venture), and (ii) unconsolidated joint ventures, we own, with one joint venture partner and its affiliates, three properties which account for our $334,000 share of 2017 annual base rent. We may be adversely affected if we are unable to maintain a satisfactory working relationship with these joint venture partners or if any of these partners becomes financially distressed.

Compliance with environmental regulations and associated costs could adversely affect our results of operations and liquidity.

        Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an owner or operator of real property may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum product releases at the property and may be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage and for investigation and cleanup costs incurred in connection with contamination. The cost of investigation, remediation or removal of hazardous or toxic substances may be substantial, and the presence of such substances, or the failure to properly remediate a property, may adversely affect our ability to sell or rent the property or to borrow money using the property as collateral. In connection with our ownership, operation and management of real properties, we may be considered an owner or operator of the properties and, therefore, potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other related costs, including governmental fines and liability for injuries to persons and property, not only with respect to properties we own now or may acquire, but also with respect to properties we have owned in the past.

        We cannot provide any assurance that existing environmental studies with respect to any of our properties reveal all potential environmental liabilities, that any prior owner of a property did not create any material environmental condition not known to us, or that a material environmental condition does not otherwise exist, or may not exist in the future, as to any one or more of our properties. If a material environmental condition does in fact exist, or exists in the future, the remediation costs could have a material adverse impact upon our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.

Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act could be costly.

        Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, all public accommodations must meet Federal requirements for access and use by disabled persons. A determination that our properties do not comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act could result in liability for both governmental fines and damages. If we are required to make unanticipated major modifications to any of our properties to

16

Table of Contents

comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, which are determined not to be the responsibility of our tenants, we could incur unanticipated expenses that could have an adverse impact upon our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.

Our senior management and other key personnel are critical to our business and our future success depends on our ability to retain them.

        We depend on the services of Matthew J. Gould, chairman of our board of directors, Fredric H. Gould, vice chairman of our board of directors, Patrick J. Callan, Jr., our president and chief executive officer, Lawrence G. Ricketts, Jr., our executive vice president and chief operating officer, David W. Kalish, our senior vice president and chief financial officer and Karen Dunleavy, our vice president—financial, and other members of our senior management to carry out our business and investment strategies. Only three of our senior officers, Messrs. Callan and Ricketts, and Ms. Dunleavy, devote all of their business time to us. The remainder of our senior management provides services to us on a part-time, as-needed basis. The loss of the services of any of our senior management or other key personnel, the inability or failure of the members of senior management providing services to us on a part-time basis to devote sufficient time or attention to our activities or our inability to recruit and retain qualified personnel in the future, could impair our ability to carry out our business and investment strategies.

Our transactions with affiliated entities involve conflicts of interest.

        From time to time we have entered into transactions with persons and entities affiliated with us and with certain of our officers and directors. Such transactions involve a potential conflict of interest, and entail a risk that we could have obtained more favorable terms if we had entered into such transaction with an unaffiliated third party. Our policy for transactions with affiliates is to have these transactions approved by our audit committee. We entered into a compensation and services agreement with Majestic Property effective as of January 1, 2007. Majestic Property is wholly-owned by the vice-chairman of our board of directors and it provides compensation to certain of our part-time senior executive officers and other individuals performing services on our behalf. Pursuant to the compensation and services agreement, we pay an annual fee to Majestic Property which provides us with the services of all affiliated executive, administrative, legal, accounting and clerical personnel that we use on a part time basis, as well as property management services, property acquisition, sales and leasing and mortgage brokerage services. In 2016, pursuant to the compensation and services agreement, we paid Majestic Property a fee of $2.5 million and an additional $196,000 for our share of all direct office expenses, including rent, telephone, postage, computer services, and internet usage. We also obtain our property insurance in conjunction with Gould Investors L.P., our affiliate, and in 2016, reimbursed Gould Investors $699,000 for our share of the insurance premiums paid by Gould Investors. Gould Investors beneficially owns approximately 9.8% of our outstanding common stock and certain of our senior executive officers are also executive officers of the managing general partner of Gould Investors. See Note12 of our consolidated financial statements for information regarding equity awards to individuals performing services on our behalf pursuant to the compensation and services agreement.

The failure of any bank in which we deposit our funds could have an adverse impact on our financial condition.

        We have diversified our cash and cash equivalents between several banking institutions in an attempt to minimize exposure to any one of these entities. However, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation only insures accounts in amounts up to $250,000 per depositor per insured bank. We currently have cash and cash equivalents deposited in certain financial institutions significantly in excess of federally insured levels. If any of the banking institutions in which we have deposited funds

17

Table of Contents

ultimately fails, we may lose our deposits over $250,000. The loss of our deposits may have an adverse effect on our financial condition.

Breaches of information technology systems could materially harm our business and reputation.

        We collect and retain on information technology systems, certain financial, personal and other sensitive information provided by third parties, including tenants, vendors and employees. We also rely on information technology systems for the collection and distribution of funds. There can be no assurance that we will be able to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive information or the unauthorized distribution of funds. Any loss of this information or unauthorized distribution of funds as a result of a breach of information technology systems may result in loss of funds to which we are entitled, legal liability and costs (including damages and penalties), as well as damage to our reputation, that could materially and adversely affect our business.

We are dependent on third party software for our billing and financial reporting processes.

        We are dependent on third party software, and in particular Yardi's property management software, for generating tenant invoices and financial reports. If the software fails (including a failure resulting from such parties unwillingness or inability to maintain or upgrade the functionality of the software), our ability to bill tenants and prepare financial reports could be impaired which would adversely affect our business.

Risks Related to the REIT Industry

Failure to qualify as a REIT could result in material adverse tax consequences and could significantly reduce cash available for distributions.

        We operate so as to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Qualification as a REIT involves the application of technical and complex legal provisions for which there are limited judicial and administrative interpretations. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control may affect our ability to qualify as a REIT. In addition, no assurance can be given that legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not significantly change the tax laws with respect to qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification. If we fail to quality as a REIT, we will be subject to federal, certain additional state and local income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and would not be allowed a deduction in computing our taxable income for amounts distributed to stockholders. In addition, unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, we would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost. The additional tax would reduce significantly our net income and the cash available to pay dividends.

We are subject to certain distribution requirements that may result in our having to borrow funds at unfavorable rates.

        To obtain the favorable tax treatment associated with being a REIT, we generally are required, among other things, to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income (subject to certain adjustments) each year. To the extent that we satisfy these distribution requirements, but distribute less than 100% of our taxable income we will be subject to Federal and state corporate tax on our undistributed taxable income.

        As a result of differences in timing between the receipt of income and the payment of expenses, and the inclusion of such income and the deduction of such expenses in arriving at taxable income, and the effect of nondeductible capital expenditures, the creation of reserves and the timing of required debt service (including amortization) payments, we may need to borrow funds in order to make the distributions necessary to retain the tax benefits associated with qualifying as a REIT, even if we believe that then prevailing market conditions are not generally favorable for such borrowings. Such borrowings could reduce our net income and the cash available to pay dividends.

Table of Contents

Compliance with REIT requirements may hinder our ability to maximize profits.

        In order to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, we must continually satisfy tests concerning, among other things, our sources of income, the amounts we distribute to our stockholders and the ownership of our stock. We may also be required to make distributions to stockholders at disadvantageous times or when we do not have funds readily available for distribution. Accordingly, compliance with REIT requirements may hinder our ability to operate solely on the basis of maximizing profits.

        In order to qualify as a REIT, we must also ensure that at the end of each calendar quarter, at least 75% of the value of our assets consists of cash, cash items, government securities and real estate assets. Any investment in securities cannot include more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer or more than 10% of the total value of the outstanding securities of any one issuer. In addition, no more than 5% of the value of our assets can consist of the securities of any one issuer, other than a qualified REIT security. If we fail to comply with these requirements, we must dispose of such portion of these securities in excess of these percentages within 30 days after the end of the calendar quarter in order to avoid losing our REIT status and suffering adverse tax consequences. This requirement could cause us to dispose of assets for consideration that is less than their true value and could lead to an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

Mortgage Debt

        At December 31, 2016, we had:

•

72 first mortgages secured by 89 of our 114 properties; and



•

$399.2 million of mortgage debt outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 4.27% and a weighted average remaining maturity of approximately 9.3 years. Substantially all of such mortgage debt bears fixed interest at rates ranging from 3.02% to 7.81% and contains prepayment penalties.

        The following table sets forth scheduled principal mortgage payments due on our properties as of December 31, 2016 (dollars in thousands):

        At December 31, 2016, our joint ventures had first mortgages on four properties with outstanding balances aggregating approximately $36.0 million, bearing interest at rates ranging from 3.49% to 5.81% with a weighted average interest rate of 3.97%. Substantially all of these mortgages contain prepayment penalties. The following table sets forth the scheduled principal mortgage payments due for properties owned by our joint ventures as of December 31, 2016 (dollars in thousands):

        The mortgages on our properties are generally non-recourse, subject to standard carve-outs. The term "standard carve-outs" refers to recourse items to an otherwise non-recourse mortgage and are customary to mortgage financing. While carve-outs vary from lender to lender and transaction to transaction, the carve-outs may include, among other things, voluntary bankruptcy filings, environmental liabilities, the sale, financing or encumbrance of the property in violation of loan documents, damage to property as a result of intentional misconduct or gross negligence, failure to pay valid taxes and other claims which could create liens on property and the conversion of security deposits, insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations

        We compute funds from operations, or FFO, in accordance with the "White Paper on Funds From Operations" issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") and NAREIT's related guidance. FFO is defined in the White Paper as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepting accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization (including amortization of deferred leasing costs), plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. In computing FFO, we do not add back to net income the amortization of costs in connection with our financing activities or depreciation of non-real estate assets. We compute adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, by adjusting from FFO for our straight-line rent accruals and amortization of lease intangibles, deducting lease termination fees and gain on extinguishment of debt and adding back amortization of restricted stock compensation, amortization of costs in connection with our financing activities (including our share of our unconsolidated joint ventures) and debt prepayment costs. Since the NAREIT White Paper does not provide guidelines for computing AFFO, the computation of AFFO may vary from one REIT to another.

        We believe that FFO and AFFO are useful and standard supplemental measures of the operating performance for equity REITs and are used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating equity REITs, many of which present FFO and AFFO when reporting their operating results. FFO and AFFO are intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminish predictability over time. In fact, real estate values have historically risen and fallen with market conditions. As a result, we believe that FFO and AFFO provide a performance measure that when compared year over year, should reflect the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing a perspective that may not be necessarily apparent from net income. We also consider FFO and AFFO to be useful to us in evaluating potential property acquisitions.

        FFO and AFFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income as a reliable measure of our operating performance; nor should FFO and AFFO be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities (as defined by GAAP) as measures of liquidity. FFO and AFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including principal amortization, capital improvements and distributions to stockholders.

        Management recognizes that there are limitations in the use of FFO and AFFO. In evaluating our performance, management is careful to examine GAAP measures such as net income and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities.

Item 7.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

        We are a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust. We acquire, own and manage a geographically diversified portfolio consisting primarily of retail, industrial, flex and health and fitness properties, many of which are under long-term leases. As of December 31, 2016, we own 114 properties and our joint ventures own five properties. These 119 properties are located in 30 states.

        We face a variety of risks and challenges in our business. As more fully described under Item 1A. Risk Factors, we, among other things, face the possibility we will not be able to acquire accretive properties on acceptable terms, lease our properties on terms favorable to us or at all, our tenants may not be able to pay their rental and other obligations and we may not be able to renew or relet, on acceptable terms, leases that are expiring.

        We seek to manage the risk of our real property portfolio and the related financing arrangements by diversifying among types of properties, industries, locations, tenants, scheduled lease expirations and lenders, and by seeking to minimize our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. As a result, as of December 31, 2016:

•

our 2017 contractual rental income is derived from the following property types: 49.1% from retail, 27.3% from industrial, 5.0% from flex, 4.7% from health and fitness, 3.5% from theater and 10.4% from other properties,



•

no tenant accounts for more than 7.1% of our 2017 contractual rental income,



•

properties in only one state (i.e., Texas, 13.0%) account for 10% or more of 2017 contractual rental income,



•

through 2025, there is one year in which the percentage of our contractual rental income represented by expiring leases exceeds 10% of our 2017 contractual rental income (i.e., 18.4% in 2022) and approximately 40.8% of our 2017 contractual rental income is represented by leases expiring in 2026 and thereafter,



•

substantially all of our mortgage debt either bears interest at fixed rates or is subject to interest rate swaps—the swaps limit our exposure to fluctuating interest rates on our outstanding mortgage debt,



•

there are seven different counterparties to our portfolio of interest rate swaps: one counterparty, rated A by a national rating agency, accounts for 43.5%, or $66.3 million, of the notional value of our swaps; a second counterparty, rated BBB by a national rating agency, accounts for 24.3%, or $37.1 million, of the notional value of such swaps; and no other counterparty accounts for more than 15% of the notional value of our swaps, and



•

we have 21 different mortgage lenders (including with respect to the mortgage debt of our unconsolidated joint ventures): four different lenders account for 31.1%, 15.9%, 15.2% and 10.3% of such debt.

        We monitor the risk of tenant non-payments through a variety of approaches tailored to the applicable situation. Generally, based on our assessment of the credit risk posed by our tenants, we monitor a tenant's financial condition through one or more of the following actions: reviewing tenant financial statements, obtaining other tenant related financial information, regular contact with tenant's representatives, tenant credit checks and regular management reviews of our tenants. We may sell a property if the tenant's financial condition is unsatisfactory.

        In acquiring properties, we balance an evaluation of the terms of the leases and the credit of the existing tenants with a fundamental analysis of the real estate to be acquired, which analysis takes into

32

account, among other things, the estimated value of the property, local demographics and the ability to re-rent or dispose of the property on favorable terms upon lease expiration or early termination.

        We are sensitive to the risks facing the retail industry as a result of the growth of e-commerce. Retail properties generated $33.4 million, or 52.1%, of rental income, net, in 2016, and $33.0 million, or 55.9%, of rental income, net, in 2015. We are addressing our exposure to the retail industry by seeking to acquire properties that we believe capitalize on e-commerce activities, such as e-commerce distribution and warehousing facilities and by being especially selective in acquiring retail properties.

2016 Highlights

        In 2016:

•

our rental income, net, increased by $5.2 million, or 8.8%, to $64.2 million, from $59.0 million in 2015.



•

we acquired 11 properties for an aggregate purchase price of $118.6 million, including new mortgage debt of $25.6 million. The acquired properties account for $9.1 million, or 13.9%, of our 2017 contractual rental income.



•

we sold 12 properties (including a portfolio of eight convenience stores) for a gain on sale of real estate of $10.0 million—the properties sold accounted for 1.8% of 2016 rental income.



•

we obtained gross proceeds of $137.6 million from mortgage financings (including acquisition mortgage debt of $25.6 million), and refinancings.



•

we increased our quarterly dividend by 4.9% to $0.43 per share, commencing with the dividend declared in December 2016.



•

we raised $25.8 million from the issuance of 1,080,000 shares of common stock pursuant to our at-the-market equity offering program.



•

we renewed, extended and/or entered into leases covering more than one million square feet, including leases with two tenants that in the aggregate account for approximately 6.3% of 2017 contractual rental income.



•

we amended and restated our credit facility to increase to up to $100 million the amount available for borrowing thereunder and extended the facility's maturity date to December 31, 2019.

Other Developments

        We agreed to sell our vacant Greenwood Village, Colorado property previously tenanted by Sports Authority. Completion of the transaction is subject to the satisfaction of specified conditions. We anticipate that this transaction will be completed no later than September 30, 2017 and that our gain from this sale will range from approximately $5 million to $7 million. We can provide no assurance that the sale will be completed or that the anticipated gain will be recognized.

        We own interests in three properties tenanted by Kmart Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries. Kmart and its parent, Sears Holding Corporation, have experienced financial difficulties for several years. From December 2016 through January 2017, Kmart announced that it was closing stores at

Table of Contents

108 locations, including our Kmart in Savannah, Georgia. Set forth below is information regarding all of our Kmart properties (dollars in thousands):

        We own two properties in Illinois tenanted by hhgregg, Inc. an electronics retailer, which announced on March 2, 2017 that it intends to close its Niles, Illinois store, and on March 6, 2017, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. At December 31, 2016, the unbilled rent receivable balance and unamortized intangible lease assets associated with the Niles, Illinois property were $205,000 and $434,000, respectively, and in 2016, this property accounted for $449,000 (including $7,000 of tenant reimbursements) of revenues. At December 31, 2016, the unbilled rent receivable balance and the unamortized intangible lease assets associated with the Crystal Lake, Illinois property were $60,000 and $227,000, respectively, and in 2016, this property accounted for $328,000 (including $55,000 of tenant reimbursements) of revenues. The Niles and Crystal Lake, Illinois leases expire in 2026 and 2021, respectively.

        Savers Thrift Superstores, a thrift retailer, in connection with the closure of all three of its stores located in Colorado, notified us on March 2, 2017 that it intends to close its store located at our Highlands Ranch, Colorado property. At December 31, 2016, the unbilled rent receivable balance, tenant origination costs and unamortized intangible lease liabilities associated with this property were $69,000, $588,000, and $1.0 million, respectively, and in 2016, this property accounted for $528,000 of our revenues. This lease expires in 2022.

        In light of the financial difficulties Kmart, hhgregg and Savers Thrift are experiencing, it is possible that these tenants, in addition to the previously announced closures, may close and/or cease paying rent at one or more of their stores located at our properties. Though a tenant may close a store, such closure does not relieve it of its obligation to pay rent. If these tenants stop paying rent, we may be adversely effected.

        In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. See note 2 to our consolidated financial statements. Most of our acquisitions will not qualify as businesses and, accordingly, acquisition costs for those acquisitions will be capitalized rather than expensed. We anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have, to the extent we acquire properties, a favorable impact on net income, FFO and AFFO.

        The FASB has also adopted new accounting standards with respect to the accounting treatment for leases and revenue recognition. See note 2 to our consolidated financial statements. We are evaluating the impact, if any, of these standards.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 2016 and 2015

Revenues

        The following table compares total revenues for the periods indicated:

        Rental income, net.    The increase is due primarily to (i) $4.4 million earned from 11 properties acquired in 2016 and $2.7 million from seven properties acquired in 2015; (ii) the $530,000 write-off against rental income in 2015 of the entire balance of unbilled rent receivable and the intangible lease asset related to the 2015 lease termination fees described below; and (iii) $383,000 from three replacement tenants that leased vacant space at one of our El Paso, Texas properties.

        Offsetting the increase are decreases of (i) $2.1 million due to the 2016 sale of 12 properties (the "Sold Properties"), including a portfolio of eight convenience stores (the "Pantry Portfolio"); and (ii) $909,000 from three vacant properties which were leased to Pathmark, Sports Authority and Quality Bakery ("Vacant Properties"). During 2016, Pathmark did not generate rental income and Sports Authority and Quality Bakery generated an aggregate of $751,000 of rental income.

        Tenant reimbursements.    Real estate tax and operating expense reimbursements in 2016 increased by (i) $781,000 and $644,000 from the properties acquired in 2016 and 2015, respectively, and (ii) $1.1 million from other properties in our portfolio. We recognized an equivalent amount of real estate expense for these tenant reimbursements.

        Lease termination fees.    In 2015, we received lease termination fees of $2.9 million in lease buy-out transactions and re-leased substantially all of such premises simultaneously with the lease terminations. There were no such fees in 2016.

Operating Expenses

        The following table compares operating expenses for the periods indicated:

35

Table of Contents

        Depreciation and amortization.    Approximately $1.5 million and $932,000 of the increase is due to depreciation expense on the properties acquired in 2016 and 2015, respectively, approximately $365,000 of the increase is due to depreciation on property improvements and approximately $94,000 is due to amortization of leasing commissions. Offsetting these increases are decreases in 2016 of (i) $440,000 of expenses related to the Sold Properties and (ii) $657,000 of amortization and write-offs of intangibles and lease commissions. The $657,000 includes a $380,000 write-off of tenant origination costs in 2015 related to the Pathmark property and the balance relates primarily to the write-off of intangibles and lease commissions with respect to leases that expired or terminated in 2015 and 2016. We estimate that depreciation and amortization in 2017 related to the properties acquired in 2016 will be approximately $3.1 million.

        General and administrative.    Contributing to the increase were increases of: (i) $649,000 in non-cash compensation expense primarily related to the increase in the number of shares of restricted stock granted in 2016 and the higher fair value of the awards granted in 2016 in comparison to the awards granted in 2011 that vested in 2016; (ii) $286,000 for third party audit and audit related services; and (iii) $97,000 in compensation expense payable to our full and part time personnel, primarily due to higher levels of compensation.

        Real estate expenses.    The increase in 2016 is due primarily to increases of $1.4 million from properties acquired in 2015 and 2016 and $719,000 from other properties in our portfolio. Most of these increases are rebilled to tenants and are included in Tenant reimbursement revenues. Also contributing to the increase in 2016 are $587,000 of expenses related to taxes and maintenance of the Vacant Properties and $165,000 due to the change in which property management fees are determined pursuant to the Compensation and Services Agreement.

        Real estate acquisition costs.    The increase is due to increased acquisition activity in 2016.

        Federal excise and state taxes.    We incurred Federal excise tax of $174,000 in 2015 and $6,000 in 2016 because profitable property sales resulted in calendar year distributions to stockholders being less than the amount required to be distributed during such year. In 2016, we deferred a $6.8 million taxable gain on a property sale through an IRC Section 1031 exchange.

Other Income and Expenses

        The following table compares other income and expenses for the periods indicated:

        Gain on sale of real estate, net.    The gain for 2016 was realized from (i) the sales of 12 properties, including the Pantry Portfolio and (ii) a $116,000 gain on the partial condemnation of land at our former Sports Authority property in Greenwood Village, Colorado. The 2015 gain was realized from

36

Table of Contents

the January 2015 sale of the Cherry Hill, New Jersey property. The minority partner's share of the gain on the Cherry Hill, New Jersey property was $1.3 million, which is the primary reason for the decrease in net income attributable to non-controlling interests for 2016 as compared to 2015.

        Purchase price fair value adjustment.    In connection with the acquisition of our joint venture partner's 50% interest in a property located in Lincoln, Nebraska, we recorded this adjustment, representing the difference between the book value of the preexisting equity investment on the purchase date of March 31, 2015 and the fair value of the investment.

        Prepayment costs on debt.    These costs were incurred primarily in connection with property sales and the payoff, prior to the stated maturity, of the related mortgage debt. In 2016, these costs related primarily to the sales of the Tomlinson, Pennsylvania property and the Pantry Portfolio. In 2015, these costs related primarily to the sale of the Cherry Hill, New Jersey property.

        Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures.    The increase in 2016 is due primarily to an increase of $633,000 in our share of income from the Manahawkin, New Jersey retail center which was acquired in June 2015. The year ended December 31, 2015 included our $400,000 share of acquisition expenses associated with the purchase of this center.

        Other income.    As a result of a partial condemnation of land and easements obtained by the Colorado Department of Transportation ("CDOT") at our Greenwood Village, Colorado property in 2016, we received $484,000 from CDOT and have been advised by CDOT that it will remit to us an additional $25,000. Of this aggregate of $509,000, $356,000 is attributable to easements and is included in Other income. See "Gain on sale of real estate, net" above for the gain resulting from the $153,000 balance.

        Interest expense.    The following table summarizes interest expense for the periods indicated:

Credit facility interest

        The decrease in 2016 is due to the $3.8 million decrease in the weighted average balance outstanding under our line of credit, offset by an increase of 28 basis points in the average interest rate from 1.95% to 2.23%, as well as an increase in the unused fee resulting from a $25 million increase in our borrowing capacity in connection with the November 2016 amendment and restatement of the credit facility.

Table of Contents

Mortgage interest

        The following table reflects the average interest rate on the average principal amount of outstanding mortgage debt during the applicable year:

        The increase in mortgage interest expense is due to the increase in the average principal amount of mortgage debt outstanding, offset by a decrease in the average interest rate on outstanding mortgage debt. The increase in the average balance outstanding is substantially due to the incurrence of mortgage debt of $89.5 million in connection with properties acquired in 2015 and 2016 and the financing or refinancing of $85.2 million of mortgage debt, net of refinanced amounts, in connection with properties acquired prior to 2015. The decrease in the average interest rate is due to the financing (including financings effectuated in connection with acquisitions) or refinancing in 2016 and 2015 of $217.2 million of gross mortgage debt (including $42.6 million of refinanced amounts) with an average interest rate of approximately 3.8%.

        We estimate that in 2017, the mortgage interest expense associated with the properties acquired in 2016 will be approximately $1.9 million. Interest expense for these properties in 2016 was $709,000.

        Amortization and write-off of deferred financing costs.    The decrease in 2016 is primarily due to the write-off in 2015 of $249,000 relating to the sale of the Cherry Hill, New Jersey property. This decrease was offset by the write-off and increased amortization in 2016 of $66,000 relating to the new line of credit and other write-offs of $57,000 relating to property sales.

Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 2015 and 2014

Revenues

        The following table compares total revenues for the periods indicated:

        Rental income, net.    The increase is due primarily to $4.4 million earned from seven properties acquired in 2015 and $2.2 million from nine properties acquired in 2014, offset by the $530,000 write-off against rental income of the entire balance of unbilled rent receivables and the intangible lease asset related to the 2015 lease termination fees described below. Rental income for 2014 includes $3.7 million from three properties, which we refer to as the 2015 Sold Properties, that were sold or disposed of from October 2014 through mid-January 2015 (including the sale, for substantial gains, of the Parsippany and Cherry Hill, New Jersey properties).

        Tenant reimbursements.    Real estate tax and operating expense reimbursements in 2015 increased by (i) $834,000 and $361,000 from the properties acquired in 2015 and 2014, respectively, (ii) $399,000

38

Table of Contents

from three properties at which we recognized an equivalent amount of real estate expense and (iii) $280,000 due to net increases from various properties. Tenant reimbursements for 2014 include $372,000 related to our Cherry Hill, New Jersey property, which was sold in January 2015, and $211,000 related to our El Paso, Texas property, portions of which became vacant during 2014 through 2015 and for which we are paying a portion of its operating expenses.

        Lease termination fees.    We received lease termination fees of $2.9 million and $1.3 million in lease buy-out transactions in 2015 and 2014, respectively. We re-leased substantially all of such premises simultaneously with the lease terminations.

Operating Expenses

        The following table compares operating expenses for the periods indicated:

        Depreciation and amortization.    Approximately $1.3 million and $1.2 million of the increase is due to depreciation expense on the properties acquired in 2015 and 2014, respectively, and approximately $222,000 of the increase is due to depreciation on property improvements, intangibles and leasing commissions. The $1.2 million of such expense related to properties acquired in 2014, includes the write-off of $380,000 of tenant origination costs related to the bankruptcy of the Pathmark supermarket in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Depreciation and amortization for 2014 includes $1.0 million related to the 2015 Sold Properties.

        General and administrative expenses.    Contributing to the increase were increases of: (i) $501,000 in non-cash compensation expense primarily related to the increase in the number of shares of restricted stock granted in 2015 and the higher fair value of the awards granted in 2015 in comparison to the awards granted in 2010 that vested in 2015 and (ii) $399,000 in compensation expense payable to our full and part time personnel, primarily due to higher levels of compensation. Offsetting these increases is a decrease of $167,000 for third party audit and tax services, a significant portion of which relates to the implementation in 2014 of COSO 2013.

        Real estate expenses.    The increase in 2015 is due primarily to increases of $1.5 million from 12 of the 16 properties acquired beginning January 2014 and $399,000 from three properties acquired in or prior to 2011. Substantially all of these expenses are rebilled to tenants. In addition, in 2015, we incurred $144,000 in brokerage and professional fees. In 2015 and 2014, real estate expenses included $11,000 and $624,000, respectively, related to our Cherry Hill, New Jersey property, which was sold in January 2015.

39

Table of Contents

        Federal excise and state taxes.    We incurred Federal excise tax of $174,000 in 2015 and $302,000 in 2014 because profitable property sales resulted in calendar year distributions to stockholders being less than the amount required to be distributed during such year.

        Impairment loss.    We recorded this loss with respect to a retail property located in Morrow, Georgia. The tenant did not renew its lease which expired on October 31, 2014, our efforts to re-let the property were unsuccessful and the non-recourse mortgage on the property matured November 1, 2014. We determined that it was not economical to retain the property which was acquired by the mortgagee in January 2015 in an uncontested foreclosure proceeding.

Other Income and Expenses

        The following table compares other income and expenses for the periods indicated:

        Gain on sale of real estate, net.    These gains were realized from the January 2015 sale of the Cherry Hill, New Jersey property and the October 2014 sale of the Parsippany, New Jersey property. The minority partner's share of the gain on the sale of the Cherry Hill, New Jersey property was $1.3 million.

        Purchase price fair value adjustment.    In connection with the acquisition of our joint venture partner's 50% interest in a property located in Lincoln, Nebraska, we recorded this adjustment, representing the difference between the book value of the preexisting equity investment on the March 31, 2015 purchase date and the fair value of the investment.

        Prepayment costs on debt.    These costs were incurred primarily in connection with property sales and the payoff, prior to the stated maturity, of the related mortgage debt. In 2015, these costs related primarily to the sale of the Cherry Hill, New Jersey property and in 2014, these costs related to the sale of the Parsippany, New Jersey property.

        Equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures.    The decrease is attributable substantially to the following factors: (i) our $400,000 share of the acquisition expense associated with the June 2015 purchase of the Manahawkin, New Jersey retail center, offset by our $256,000 share of earnings from this property; and (ii) the purchase, in March 2015, of our partner's interest in a joint venture that owns a retail property in Lincoln, Nebraska. In 2015 and 2014, this Lincoln, Nebraska joint venture contributed $68,000 and $212,000 to equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures, respectively. The decrease was offset by an increase of $167,000 of income from other ventures.

        Gain on sale—investment in BRT Realty Trust.    In May 2014, we sold to Gould Investors L.P., a related party, our 37,081 shares of BRT Realty Trust, a related party, for $266,000. The cost of these shares was $132,000 and we realized a gain on sale of $134,000.

        Interest expense.    The following table summarizes interest expense for the periods indicated:

Credit facility interest

        The decrease is due to the change, pursuant to an amendment to our facility dated December 31, 2014, in the annual interest rate on this facility from a variable interest rate with a floor of 4.75%, to a variable interest rate with a floor of 1.75%. During 2015, the average interest rate on the facility was approximately 1.95%.

Mortgage interest

        The following table reflects the average interest rate on the average principal amount of outstanding mortgage debt during the applicable year:

        The increase in mortgage interest expense is due to the increase in the average principal amount of mortgage debt outstanding, offset by a decrease in the average interest rate on outstanding mortgage debt. The decrease in the average interest rate is due to the financing (including financings effectuated in connection with acquisitions) or refinancing in 2015 and 2014 of $140.1 million of gross new mortgage debt with an average interest rate of approximately 4.3%. The increase in the average balance outstanding is due to the incurrence of mortgage debt of $57.0 million in connection with properties acquired in 2015 and 2014 and the financing or refinancing of $52.2 million, net of refinanced amounts, in connection with properties acquired prior to 2014. The increase in the average amount outstanding was offset by the payoff of five mortgages and the foreclosure of one mortgage in the year ended December 31, 2015, totaling $21.3 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        Our sources of liquidity and capital include cash flow from operations, cash and cash equivalents, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, refinancing existing mortgage loans, obtaining mortgage loans secured by our unencumbered properties, issuance of our equity securities and property sales. In 2016, we obtained $103.2 million of net proceeds from mortgage financings and refinancings and $25.8 million of net proceeds from the sale of our common stock pursuant to our at-the-market equity offering program. Our available liquidity at March 2, 2017 was approximately $101.2 million, including approximately $6.2 million of cash and cash equivalents (net of the credit facility's required $3 million deposit maintenance balance) and up to $95.0 million available under our revolving credit facility.

Table of Contents

Liquidity and Financing

        We expect to meet substantially all of our operating cash requirements (including debt service and dividends) and capital requirements, including an estimated $13.2 million of building expansion and tenant improvements at several properties, from cash flow from operations. To the extent that this cash flow is inadequate to cover all of these needs, we will be required to use our available cash and cash equivalents or draw on our credit facility (to the extent permitted) to satisfy these requirements.

        The following table sets forth, as of December 31, 2016, information with respect to our mortgage debt that is payable from January 2017 through December 31, 2019 (excluding our unconsolidated joint ventures):

        At December 31, 2016, our unconsolidated joint ventures had first mortgages on four properties with outstanding balances aggregating approximately $36.0 million, bearing interest at rates ranging from 3.49% to 5.81% (i.e., a 3.97% weighted average interest rate) and maturing between 2018 and 2025.

        We intend to make debt amortization payments from operating cash flow and, though no assurance can be given that we will be successful in this regard, generally intend to refinance or extend the mortgage loans which mature in 2017 through 2019. We intend to repay the amounts not refinanced or extended from our existing funds and sources of funds, including our available cash and our credit facility (to the extent available).

        We continually seek to refinance existing mortgage loans on terms we deem acceptable to generate additional liquidity. Additionally, in the normal course of our business, we sell properties when we determine that it is in our best interests, which also generates additional liquidity. Further, since each of our encumbered properties is subject to a non-recourse mortgage (with standard carve-outs), if our in-house evaluation of the market value of such property is less than the principal balance outstanding on the mortgage loan, we may determine to convey, in certain circumstances, such property to the mortgagee in order to terminate our mortgage obligations, including payment of interest, principal and real estate taxes, with respect to such property.

        Typically, we utilize funds from our credit facility to acquire a property and, thereafter secure long-term, fixed rate mortgage debt on such property. We apply the proceeds from the mortgage loan to repay borrowings under the credit facility, thus providing us with the ability to re-borrow under the credit facility for the acquisition of additional properties. As a result, in order to grow our business, it is important to have a credit facility in place.

Credit Facility

        We can borrow up to $100 million pursuant to our revolving credit facility which is available to us for the acquisition of commercial real estate, repayment of mortgage debt, property improvements and general working capital purposes; provided, that if used for property improvements and working capital purposes, the amount outstanding for such purposes will not exceed the lesser of $15 million and 15% of the borrowing base and if used for working capital purposes, will not exceed $10 million. The facility matures December 31, 2019 and bears interest equal to the one month LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin ranges from 175 basis points if our ratio of total debt to total value (as calculated pursuant to the facility) is equal to or less than 50%, increasing to a maximum of 300 basis

42

Table of Contents

points if such ratio is greater than 65%. There is an unused facility fee of 0.25% per annum on the difference between the outstanding loan balance and $100 million. The credit facility requires the maintenance of $3.0 million in average deposit balances. For 2016, the average interest rate on the facility was approximately 2.23%.

        The terms of our revolving credit facility include certain restrictions and covenants which limit, among other things, the incurrence of liens, and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to, among other things, the minimum amount of tangible net worth, the minimum amount of debt service coverage, the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage, the maximum amount of debt to value, the minimum level of net income, certain investment limitations and the minimum value of unencumbered properties and the number of such properties. Net proceeds received from the sale, financing or refinancing of properties are generally required to be used to repay amounts outstanding under our credit facility. At December 31, 2016, we were in compliance in all material respects with the covenants under this facility.

Contractual Obligations

        The following sets forth our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2016:

        As of December 31, 2016, we had $399.2 million of mortgage debt outstanding (excluding mortgage indebtedness of our unconsolidated joint ventures), all of which is non-recourse (subject to standard carve-outs). We expect that mortgage interest and amortization payments (excluding repayments of principal at maturity) of approximately $79.6 million due through 2019 will be paid primarily from cash generated from our operations. We anticipate that principal balances due at maturity through 2019 of $22.8 million will be paid primarily from cash and cash equivalents and mortgage financings and refinancings. If we are unsuccessful in refinancing our existing indebtedness or financing our unencumbered properties, our cash flow, funds available under our credit facility and available cash, if any, may not be sufficient to repay all debt obligations when payments become due, and we may need to issue additional equity, obtain long or short-term debt, or dispose of properties on unfavorable terms.

Statement of Cash Flows

        The following discussion of our cash flows is based on the consolidated statements of cash flows and is not meant to be a comprehensive discussion of the changes in our cash flows for the years presented.

        Our principal source of cash flows is from the operation of our properties. Our properties provide a relatively consistent stream of cash flows that provide us with the resources to fund operating expenses, debt service and quarterly dividends.

        The decrease in cash flow provided by operating activities during 2016 compared to 2015 is due to a number of factors including $2.9 million of lease termination fees received in 2015 and the timing of cash receipts and cash expenditures in the normal course of operations.

        The increase in cash used in investing activities during 2016 compared to 2015 is due primarily to the increased purchases of real estate in 2016 offset in part by (i) the increase in net proceeds from sales of real estate in 2016 and (ii) the investment in an unconsolidated joint venture in 2015, while there was no such investment in 2016.

        The increase in cash flow provided by financing activities during 2016 compared to the 2015 is due primarily to an increase in proceeds from mortgage financings and refinancings and the sale of our common stock, offset by an increase in repayment of mortgages payable and an increase in repayment (net of proceeds from drawdowns) on the credit facility. In 2016, we obtained $103.2 million of net proceeds from mortgage financings and refinancings (net of refinanced amounts), and $25.8 million of net proceeds from the sale of our common stock.

Cash Distribution Policy

        We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Accordingly, to qualify as a REIT, we must, among other things, meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute currently at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income to our stockholders. It is our current intention to comply with these requirements and maintain our REIT status. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate federal, state or local income taxes on taxable income we distribute currently (in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code and applicable regulations) to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to federal, state and local income taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent tax years. Even if we qualify for federal taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income and to federal income taxes on our undistributed taxable income (i.e., taxable income not distributed in the amounts and in the time frames prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code and applicable regulations thereunder) and are subject to Federal excise taxes on our undistributed taxable income.

        It is our intention to pay to our stockholders within the time periods prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code no less than 90%, and, if possible, 100% of our annual taxable income, including

44

Table of Contents

taxable gains from the sale of real estate. It will continue to be our policy to make sufficient distributions to stockholders in order for us to maintain our REIT status under the Internal Revenue Code.

        Our board of directors reviews the dividend policy regularly to determine if any changes to our dividend should be made.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

        We are not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements other than with respect to our properties located in Lakemoor and Wheaton, Illinois and Beachwood, Ohio. These properties are ground leases improved by multi-family properties and generated $2.1 million of rental income during 2016. At December 31, 2016, our maximum exposure to loss with respect to these properties is $34.0 million, representing the carrying value of the land; such leasehold positions are subordinate to an aggregate of $150.7 million of mortgage debt incurred by our tenants, the owner/operators of the multi-family properties. These owner/operators are affiliated with one another. We do not believe that this type of off-balance sheet arrangement has been or will be material to our liquidity and capital resource positions. See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding these arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

        Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain of our accounting policies are particularly important to an understanding of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management; as a result they are subject to a degree of uncertainty. These critical accounting policies include the following, discussed below.

Purchase Accounting for Acquisition of Real Estate

        The fair value of real estate acquired is allocated to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land and building, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases and other value of in-place leases based in each case on their fair values. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land, building and building improvements) is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the "as-if-vacant" value is then allocated to land, building and building improvements based on our determination of relative fair values of these assets. We assess fair value of the lease intangibles based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount rates and available market information. The fair values associated with below-market rental renewal options are determined based on our experience and the relevant facts and circumstances that existed at the time of the acquisitions. The portion of the values of the leases associated with below-market renewal options that we deem likely to be exercised are amortized to rental income over the respective renewal periods. The allocation made by us may have a positive or negative effect on net income and may have an effect on the assets and liabilities on the balance sheet.

Revenues

        Our revenues, which are substantially derived from rental income, include rental income that our tenants pay in accordance with the terms of their respective leases reported on a straight-line basis over the non-cancellable term of each lease. Since many of our leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, straight-line basis accounting requires us to record as an asset and include in revenues, unbilled rent receivables which we will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the term of the lease. Accordingly, our management must

45

---

Table of Contents

determine, in its judgment, that the unbilled rent receivable applicable to each specific tenant is collectible. We review unbilled rent receivables on a quarterly basis and take into consideration the tenant's payment history and the financial condition of the tenant. In the event that the collectability of an unbilled rent receivable is in doubt, we are required to take a reserve against the receivable or a direct write-off of the receivable, which has an adverse effect on net income for the year in which the reserve or direct write-off is taken, and will decrease total assets and stockholders' equity.

Carrying Value of Real Estate Portfolio

        We review our real estate portfolio on a quarterly basis to ascertain if there are any indicators of impairment to the value of any of our real estate assets, including deferred costs and intangibles, to determine if there is any need for an impairment charge. In reviewing the portfolio, we examine the type of asset, the current financial statements or other available financial information of the tenant, the economic situation in the area in which the asset is located, the economic situation in the industry in which the tenant is involved and the timeliness of the payments made by the tenant under its lease, as well as any current correspondence that may have been had with the tenant, including property inspection reports. For each real estate asset owned for which indicators of impairment exist, we perform a recoverability test by comparing the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset to its carrying amount. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the asset's carrying amount, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the estimated fair value is less than the asset's carrying amount. The estimated fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow model of the expected future cash flows through the useful life of the property. Real estate assets that are expected to be disposed of are valued at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell on an individual asset basis. We generally do not obtain any independent appraisals in determining value but rely on our own analysis and valuations. Any impairment charge taken with respect to any part of our real estate portfolio will reduce our net income and reduce assets and stockholders' equity to the extent of the amount of any impairment charge, but it will not affect our cash flow or our distributions until such time as we dispose of the property.

Item 7A.    Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

        Our primary market risk exposure is the effect of changes in interest rates on the interest cost of draws on our revolving variable rate credit facility and the effect of changes in the fair value of our interest rate swap agreements. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors beyond our control.

        We use interest rate swaps to limit interest rate risk on variable rate mortgages. These swaps are used for hedging purposes-not for speculation. We do not enter into interest rate swaps for trading purposes. At December 31, 2016, our aggregate liability in the event of the early termination of our swaps was $3.0 million.

        At December 31, 2016, we had 32 interest rate swap agreements outstanding (including two held by three of our unconsolidated joint ventures). The fair market value of the interest rate swaps is dependent upon existing market interest rates and swap spreads, which change over time. As of December 31, 2016, if there had been an increase of 100 basis points in forward interest rates, the fair market value of the interest rate swaps would have increased by approximately $9.1 million and the net unrealized loss on derivative instruments would have decreased by $9.1 million. If there were a decrease of 100 basis points in forward interest rates, the fair market value of the interest rate swaps would have decreased by approximately $9.7 million and the net unrealized loss on derivative instruments would have increased by $9.7 million. These changes would not have any impact on our net income or cash.

46

Table of Contents

        Our mortgage debt, after giving effect to the interest rate swap agreements, bears interest at fixed rates and accordingly, the effect of changes in interest rates would not impact the amount of interest expense that we incur under these mortgages.

        Our variable rate credit facility is sensitive to interest rate changes. At December 31, 2016, a 100 basis point increase of the interest rate on this facility would increase our related interest costs by approximately $100,000 per year and a 100 basis point decrease of the interest rate would decrease our related interest costs by approximately $48,000 per year.

        The fair market value of our long-term debt is estimated based on discounting future cash flows at interest rates that our management believes reflect the risks associated with long term debt of similar risk and duration.

        The following table sets forth our debt obligations by scheduled principal cash flow payments and maturity date, weighted average interest rates and estimated fair market value at December 31, 2016:

Item 9A.    Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

        A review and evaluation was performed by our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on that review and evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as designed and implemented as of December 31, 2016, were effective.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

        There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting, as defined in in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, that occurred during the three

months ended December 31, 2016 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

        Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, a company's principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by a company's board, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:

•

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of a company;



•

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of a company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of a company; and



•

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial transactions.

        Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

        Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016. In making this assessment, our management used criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013).

        Based on its assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2016, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.

        Our independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP, have issued a report on management's assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. This report appears on page F-1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 9B.    Other Information.

        On March 10, 2017, James J. Burns, a member of our board of directors, informed the Board that he will retire from the Board effective at our 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and will not stand for re-election to the Board at such meeting. Mr. Burns' decision to retire and not stand for re-election to the Board was not the result of any dispute or disagreement with us on any matter relating to our financial condition or financial reporting.

        We deeply appreciate Mr. Burns' significant contributions during his more than 16 years of service on the Board and related committees, including his long-time service as chair of our audit committee. We wish Mr. Burns well in the future.

        The Board does not expect to present a nominee to succeed Mr. Burns on the Board and relevant committees.
