News Explained

The completed ATM raised $83.6 million net while adding 4.18 million common shares, changing existing holders’ ownership base.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, CTO Realty Growth completed an at-the-market issuance of $83.6 million net proceeds through 4,183,616 new common shares, adding cash while increasing the shares among which existing holders' ownership is distributed.

An at-the-market program lets the issuer sell new shares gradually in the open market at prevailing prices rather than through one single priced deal; this issuance is reported as completed, not merely authorized.

CTO also fully funded two preferred-equity investments totaling $96.4 million: $75.0 million with a two-year term and $21.4 million with an 18-month term, each carrying a disclosed initial yield of 12.0%, with the latter including 3.0% paid-in-kind interest.

The company reports $131.8 million of liquidity as of June 30, 2026, comprising $107.0 million of undrawn commitments and $24.8 million of cash; the only stated 2026 loan maturity is a $17.8 million mortgage note due in August.

A separate property sale remains under contract and subject to closing conditions, so that disposition has not been reported as closed.

Key Terms

core ffo, affo, paid-in-kind interest, cash cap rate, +2 more
6 terms
core ffo financial
"Core Funds from Operations (“Core FFO”) attributable to common stockholders"
Core FFO (Core Funds From Operations) is a real estate industry measure of a property owner's recurring cash earnings calculated by starting with net income and removing non-cash accounting items and one-time gains or losses so the number reflects ongoing operating performance. Investors use it like a trimmed-down paycheck: it helps compare cash-generating ability across periods and companies by focusing on the stable, repeatable income rather than temporary or accounting-driven swings.
affo financial
"Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) attributable to common stockholders"
AFFO (Adjusted Funds from Operations) is a measure of how much cash a real estate company or investment trust generates from its core operations after subtracting routine upkeep, leasing costs and other recurring expenses. Investors use it as a rough proxy for the cash available to pay dividends or reinvest, like checking how much money remains in your household budget after paying regular bills to see what you can spend or save.
paid-in-kind interest financial
"initial yield of 12.0% (including 3.0% paid-in-kind interest)"
Paid-in-kind interest is interest on a loan or bond that is paid by issuing more debt or additional securities instead of cash, so the borrower adds the unpaid interest to the principal balance. For investors, it matters because it preserves the borrower’s cash now but increases the total debt or dilutes ownership later—like taking a ballooning credit card balance instead of paying the bill—and can raise risk of higher leverage and reduced cash returns.
cash cap rate financial
"weighted average exit cash cap rate of 6.7%"
Cash cap rate is the annual cash income an asset produces divided by its purchase price or current market value, expressed as a percentage. It shows the immediate cash yield an investor gets (excluding non‑cash accounting items like depreciation), so it helps compare how much cash return one investment gives versus another — similar to comparing the rent you’d collect against the price you paid.
atm program financial
"issued 4,183,616 common shares under our common stock ATM program"
An at-the-market (ATM) program is an arrangement that lets a publicly traded company sell newly issued shares gradually into the open market at prevailing prices, through a designated broker-dealer, instead of raising money in one large offering. It gives the company flexible, lower-cost fundraising; for existing shareholders it matters because each sale adds to the share count, which can dilute their ownership stake.
same-property noi financial
"shopping center same property NOI increased by 10.1%"
Same-property NOI is the change in net operating income from a real estate portfolio’s properties that were owned and operating in both the current and prior comparison periods, excluding income from recently bought, sold or newly developed properties. It matters to investors because it shows how the existing core assets are performing on their own—like comparing sales from the same stores before and after management actions—so you can judge organic cash-flow trends and management effectiveness without distortion from acquisitions or disposals.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures 

Our reported results are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We also disclose Funds From Operations (“FFO”), Core Funds From Operations (“Core FFO”), Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”), Pro Forma Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA”), and Same-Property Net Operating Income (“Same-Property NOI”), each of which are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they are widely accepted industry measures used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performance of REITs. 

FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, and Same-Property NOI do not represent cash generated from operating activities and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash requirements; accordingly, they should not be considered alternatives to net income as a performance measure or cash flows from operating activities as reported on our statement of cash flows as a liquidity measure and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures. 

We compute FFO in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT.

NAREIT defines FFO as GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude real estate related depreciation and amortization, as well as extraordinary items (as defined by GAAP) such as net gain or loss from sales of depreciable real estate assets, impairment write-downs associated with depreciable real estate assets and impairments associated with the current expected credit losses on commercial loans and investments at the time of origination and repayment, including the pro rata share of such adjustments of unconsolidated subsidiaries. The Company also excludes the gains or losses from sales of assets incidental to the primary business of the REIT which specifically include the sales of investment securities (which are presented net of income tax expense or benefit, if applicable), in addition to the mark-to-market of the Company’s investment securities. To derive Core FFO, we modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to include other adjustments to GAAP net income related to gains and losses recognized on the extinguishment of debt, amortization of above- and below-market lease related intangibles, and other unforecastable market- or transaction-driven non-cash items. To derive AFFO, we further modify the NAREIT computation of FFO and Core FFO to include other adjustments to GAAP net income related to non-cash revenues and expenses such as straight-line rental revenue, non-cash compensation, and other non-cash amortization. Such items may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on operating cash flows or long-term operating performance. We use AFFO as one measure of our performance when we formulate corporate goals. 

To derive Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, GAAP net income or loss attributable to the Company is adjusted to exclude real estate related depreciation and amortization, as well as extraordinary items (as defined by GAAP) such as net gain or loss from sales of depreciable real estate assets, impairment write-downs associated with depreciable real estate assets, impairments associated with the current expected credit losses on commercial loans and investments at the time of origination and repayment, including the pro rata share of such adjustments of unconsolidated subsidiaries, non-cash revenues and expenses such as straight-line rental revenue, amortization of deferred financing costs, gains and losses recognized on the extinguishment of debt, above- and below-market lease related intangibles, non-cash compensation, other non-recurring items such as termination fees, forfeitures of tenant security deposits, and other non-recurring items, and other non-cash income or expense. The Company also excludes the gains or losses from sales of assets incidental to the primary business of the REIT which specifically include the sales of investment securities (which are presented net of income tax expense or benefit, if applicable), in addition to the mark-to-market of the Company’s investment securities. Cash interest expense is also excluded from Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, and GAAP net income or loss is adjusted for the annualized impact of acquisitions, dispositions and other similar activities. 

To derive Same-Property NOI, GAAP net income or loss attributable to the Company is adjusted to exclude real estate related depreciation and amortization, as well as extraordinary items (as defined by GAAP) such as net gain or loss from sales of depreciable real estate assets, impairment write-downs associated with depreciable real estate assets, impairments associated with the current expected credit losses on commercial loans and investments at the time of origination and repayment, including the pro rata share of such adjustments of unconsolidated subsidiaries, non-cash revenues and expenses such as straight-line rental revenue, amortization of deferred financing costs, gains and losses recognized on the extinguishment of debt, above- and below-market lease related intangibles, non-cash compensation, other non-recurring items such as termination fees, forfeitures of tenant security deposits, and other non-recurring items, and other non-cash income or expense. Interest expense, general and administrative expenses, investment and other income or loss, income tax benefit or expense, management fee income, and interest income from commercial loans and investments are also excluded from Same-Property NOI. GAAP net income or loss is further adjusted to remove the impact of properties that were not owned for the full current and prior year reporting periods presented. Cash rental income received under the leases pertaining to the Company’s assets that are presented as commercial loans and investments in accordance with GAAP is also used in lieu of the interest income equivalent. 

FFO is used by management, investors and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers primarily because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains or losses on sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, rather than fluctuating based on existing market conditions. We believe that Core FFO and AFFO are additional useful supplemental measures for investors to consider because they will help them to better assess our operating performance without the distortions created by other non-cash revenues or expenses. We also believe that Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA is an additional useful supplemental measure for investors to consider as it allows for a better assessment of our operating performance without the distortions created by other non-cash revenues, expenses or certain effects of the Company’s capital structure on our operating performance. We use Same-Property NOI to compare the operating performance of our assets between periods. It is an accepted and important measurement used by management, investors and analysts because it includes all property-level revenues from the Company’s properties, less operating and maintenance expenses, real estate taxes and other property-specific expenses (“Net Operating Income” or “NOI”) of properties that have been owned and stabilized for the entire current and prior year reporting periods. Same-Property NOI attempts to eliminate differences due to the acquisition or disposition of properties during the particular period presented, and therefore provides a more comparable and consistent performance measure for the comparison of the Company’s properties. FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, and Same-Property NOI may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.
