Previous Earnings Reports
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nov 03 | Q3 2025 earnings | Positive | -6.1% | Core FFO and FFO grew with full rent collection and acquisitions. |
| Oct 30 | Q3 call details | Neutral | +1.2% | Announced logistics for the Q3 2025 earnings call and webcast. |
| Aug 06 | Q2 2025 earnings | Positive | -0.2% | Higher Core FFO with acquisitions, disposals and near-full occupancy. |
| Aug 04 | Q2 call details | Neutral | +1.8% | Provided schedule and access info for the Q2 2025 earnings call. |
| May 09 | Q1 2025 earnings | Positive | +2.2% | Revenue and AFFO beats with high occupancy and 100% rent collection. |
Earnings releases have generally shown solid Core FFO and occupancy, but immediate price reactions have been mixed, with some positive reports met by flat to negative moves.
Over the past few quarters, Gladstone Commercial has consistently highlighted strong occupancy (near 99%), full rent collection and growing industrial exposure. Prior earnings reports showed Core FFO around the mid-$16M range with incremental growth, aided by acquisitions and capital recycling. Q1 2025 results included revenue and AFFO beats, while Q2 and Q3 emphasized industrial acquisitions and strategic disposals. Today’s Q4/FY 2025 release extends this narrative with higher revenues, increased Core FFO, additional industrial assets and continued rent collection strength.
Historical Comparison
Past earnings headlines saw an average move of -0.25%. Today’s roughly 0.43% gain is modestly stronger than the usual post-earnings reaction.
Across Q1–Q3 2025, Gladstone reported steady Core FFO growth, 100% rent collection and rising industrial exposure via acquisitions, while recycling non-core assets. The current Q4/FY 2025 results continue this pattern with higher revenues, expanded real estate assets, and sustained high occupancy, reinforcing the multi-quarter trend of incremental cash flow and portfolio scale increases.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement details Q4 and full-year 2025 results, highlighting higher operating revenue, growing Core FFO and near-full occupancy of 99.1%. Management emphasizes capital recycling, industrial acquisitions totaling $206.7M, and consistent rent collection. Historically, earnings updates have produced relatively modest price moves. Investors may focus on leverage levels, interest expense trends, and the sustainability of the $1.20 annual common distribution when assessing the implications of these results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
FFO: The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") developed FFO as a relative non-GAAP supplemental measure of operating performance of an equity REIT in order to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and impairment losses on property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of its performance or to cash flow from operations as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions. The Company believes that FFO per share and unit provides investors with an additional context for evaluating its financial performance and as a supplemental measure to compare it to other REITs; however, comparisons of its FFO to the FFO of other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to potential differences in the application of the NAREIT definition used by such other REITs.
FFO as adjusted for comparability: FFO as adjusted for comparability is FFO adjusted for certain items that are not indicative of the results provided by the Company's operating portfolio and affect the comparability of the Company's period-over-period performance. These items include the adjustment for non-recurring expense adjustments related to the write off of offering costs pertaining to redeemed securities. Although the Company's calculation of FFO as adjusted for comparability differs from NAREIT's definition of FFO and may not be comparable to that of other REITs, the Company believes it is a meaningful supplemental measure of its operating performance. Accordingly, FFO as adjusted for comparability should be considered a supplement to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our performance.
Core FFO: Core FFO is FFO adjusted for certain items that are not indicative of the results provided by the Company's operating portfolio and affect the comparability of the Company's period-over-period performance. These items include the adjustment for acquisition related expenses, gains or losses from early extinguishment of debt and any other non-recurring expense adjustments. Although the Company's calculation of Core FFO differs from NAREIT's definition of FFO and may not be comparable to that of other REITs, the Company believes it is a meaningful supplemental measure of its operating performance. Accordingly, Core FFO should be considered a supplement to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our performance.
The Company's presentation of FFO, as defined by NAREIT, FFO as adjusted for comparability, or presentation of Core FFO, does not represent cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of its performance or to cash flow from operations as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions.
The statements in this press release regarding the forecasted stability of Gladstone Commercial's income, its ability, plans or prospects to re-lease its unoccupied properties, and grow its portfolio are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those stated or implied by its forward-looking statements are disclosed under the caption "Risk factors" of its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on February 18, 2026. Gladstone Commercial cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.
