Exposes UMH's Practice Over the Last 20 Years of Selling Stock to Raise Cash to Pay Unnecessary Dividends, Diluting Shareholders and Destroying Value

NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y., Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Erez Asset Management, LLC ("Erez"), which owns approximately 5.5% of the outstanding shares of UMH Properties, Inc. (NYSE: UMH) ("UMH" or the "Company"), today issued the latest installment in its series, "Right Horse, Wrong Jockey: The Case for Change at UMH Properties," highlighting the Company's persistent issuance of new equity to fund dividends that were not required under the REIT rules and that exceeded funds available for distribution in each of the last 20 years.

The fourth installment follows three prior presentations examining (1) UMH's decades of shareholder underperformance despite significant appreciation in assets, (2) its unsuccessful investments in other publicly traded REITs, including investments into all four of the REITS that have filed for bankruptcy since 2015 and (3) the Landy family's history of value destruction and governance failures, as seen at Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corporation.

The latest presentation, along with all previous installments of the series and other materials, is available on our website at saveUMH.com.

Erez encourages all UMH shareholders to visit the website and sign up for updates as it continues to make the case for change at UMH Properties.
