[10-Q] EastGroup Properties Inc. Quarterly Earnings Report

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

EastGroup Properties (EGP) Q2-25 10-Q highlights: Rental revenues rose 11.5% YoY to $177.3 m and six-month revenues climbed 12.3% to $351.7 m. Net income for the quarter increased 14.5% to $63.3 m ($1.20 diluted EPS), while year-to-date EPS of $2.35 was essentially flat because the prior-year period included an $8.8 m property-sale gain. Same-property NOI advanced 5.9% YTD. New and renewal leases achieved +45.8% cash rent spreads, reflecting strong industrial demand.

The operating portfolio was 97.1% leased and 96.0% occupied at 30-Jun; only 4.6% of annualised base rent expires in 2H-25. Operating cash flow increased 15.6% to $277.1 m and funded $207.9 m of development, improvements and land purchases. Unsecured borrowings fell to $1.46 bn after repayment of a $50 m loan and refinancing of a $100 m term loan at an effective 4.97% rate; Moody’s affirmed the Baa2 rating and lifted the outlook to positive.

Equity issuance provided $148 m YTD and a further $117 m post-quarter, supporting an 18-project (3.7 m sq ft) development pipeline that is 16% pre-leased and budgeted at $531 m. Quarterly dividends of $1.40/sh were declared. Comprehensive income was trimmed by an $11.1 m unrealised loss on interest-rate swaps. Subsequent events include the $61.4 m purchase of two Raleigh distribution buildings (318 k sq ft) and an $8.5 m Orlando land acquisition (37 acres).

Positive

• Revenue up 11.5% YoY and same-property NOI up 5.9%, showing healthy organic growth.
• Leasing spreads of +45.8% on renewals/new deals indicate pricing power in key markets.
• Occupancy remains high at 96.0% with limited 2025 lease expirations (4.6% of ABR).
• Debt reduced by $50 m and a $100 m term loan refinanced at lower spread, improving leverage.
• Significant liquidity: $148 m equity settled YTD plus $117 m post-quarter support pipeline funding.

Negative

• Comprehensive income hit by $11.1 m unrealised loss on interest-rate swaps.
• Dilution risk from 1.5 m+ shares issued/forward sold YTD and post-quarter, muting EPS growth.
• Large development pipeline ($531 m, only 16% pre-leased) exposes company to potential demand or cost shocks.
• Distributions exceed retained earnings; payout relies on continued cash-flow growth.
• Variable macro headwinds (inflation, construction costs, rate volatility) could pressure future margins.

Insights

REIT Equity Analyst

TL;DR: Solid rent growth and occupancy drive double-digit NOI gains; leverage down, equity raised, development pipeline well funded—overall positive.

Growth: 12% top-line and 6% same-store NOI growth outpace peer averages. Leasing spreads near 46% suggest further internal growth into 2026. Balance-sheet: Net debt trimmed by $50 m; fixed-rate coverage improved as swaps hedge all variable exposure. Post-quarter equity raise pushes pro-forma debt-to-total-capital near 29%, providing capacity for the $158 m remaining development spend.

Dividend: Annualised $5.60/sh implies a 65-70% FFO payout (management normally targets mid-60s), leaving room for modest hikes. Valuation: At ~24× NTM FFO the shares price in continued rent strength but still trade below replacement cost of modern infill distribution space.

Portfolio Risk Analyst

TL;DR: Credit metrics stable, but rising swap losses and large development pipeline introduce execution and dilution risk—net impact neutral-to-positive.

Interest-rate hedges swung to a $11 m OCI loss as the curve shifted; while non-cash, this signals mark-to-market volatility. Equity issuance lowers leverage yet dilutes EPS (flat YTD despite revenue growth). Development exposure—$531 m budget, 84% un-leased—could pressure cash flow if demand softens, though staggered starts and 97% leasing on the operating pool mitigate risk. Liquidity remains strong with $675 m of unused revolvers.

EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(1)BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of EastGroup Properties, Inc. (“EastGroup” or “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the notes thereto.

(2)PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EastGroup, its wholly owned subsidiaries and the investee of any joint ventures in which the Company has a controlling interest.

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, EastGroup held a controlling interest in two joint venture arrangements. The Company had a 95% controlling interest in a joint venture arrangement owning 6.5 acres of land in San Diego, known by the Company as Miramar Land. The Company also had a 99.5% controlling interest in a joint venture arrangement owning a property in Denver, known by the Company as Arista 36 Business Park 1-3.

The Company records 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the buildings and land held in joint ventures with the noncontrolling interests provided for in accordance with the joint venture agreements. 

The equity method of accounting is used for the Company’s 50% undivided tenant-in-common interest in Industry Distribution Center 2.  All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

(3)USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses during the reporting period and to disclose material contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(4)LEASE REVENUE

The Company’s primary source of revenue is rental income from business distribution space. The table below presents the components of Income from real estate operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024:

			Three Months Ended June 30,												Six Months Ended June 30,
			2025						2024						2025						2024
			(In thousands)
Lease income — Operating leases			$	133,727					117,138						263,793						231,338
Variable lease income (1)			43,529						40,195						86,107						80,069
Income from real estate operations			$	177,256					157,333						349,900						311,407

(1)Primarily includes tenant reimbursements for real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance.

(5)REAL ESTATE PROPERTIES

EastGroup has one reportable segment – industrial properties, consistent with the Company’s manner of internal reporting, measurement of operating results and allocation of the Company’s resources. The Company's properties are primarily in the 20,000 to 100,000 square foot range. The majority of the Company’s leases are triple net leases, in which the tenant is responsible for their pro rata share of operating expenses during the lease term, including real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer, who uses Net income as the primary measure of operating results in making decisions. Net income is computed in accordance with GAAP. Net income is used to evaluate the performance of the Company’s investments in real estate assets and its operating results and to allocate resources in acquiring or developing industrial properties. The following income and significant expense categories are regularly provided to the Company’s CODM as components of Net income, which are presented on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income: Income from real estate operations, Expenses from real estate operations, General and administrative and Interest expense.

EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows (including estimated future expenditures necessary to substantially complete the asset) expected to be generated by the asset.  If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.  During the six month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not identify any impairment charges which should be recorded.

Depreciation of buildings and other improvements is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of generally 40 years for buildings and 3 to 15 years for improvements.  Building improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repair expenses are charged to expense as incurred.  Significant renovations and improvements that improve or extend the useful life of the assets are capitalized.  Depreciation expense was $43,093,000 and $85,401,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $37,646,000 and $74,851,000 for the same periods in 2024.

The Company’s Real estate properties and Development and value-add properties at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:

			June 30, 2025						December 31, 2024
			(In thousands)
Real estate properties:
Land			$	905,877					888,140
Buildings and building improvements			3,951,399						3,815,850
Tenant and other improvements			801,009						761,061
Right of use assets — Ground leases (operating) (1)			36,666						38,393
Development and value-add properties (2)			678,013						674,472
			6,372,964						6,177,916
Less accumulated depreciation			(1,498,548)						(1,415,576)
			$	4,874,416					4,762,340

(1)EastGroup applies the principles of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases, and its related Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) to account for its ground leases, which are classified as operating leases. The related operating lease liabilities for ground leases are included in Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(2)Value-add properties are defined in Note 6.

(6)DEVELOPMENT AND VALUE-ADD PROPERTIES

Development and value-add properties consists of properties in lease-up, under construction, and prospective development (primarily land). Value-add properties are defined as properties that are either acquired but not stabilized or can be converted to a higher and better use. Properties meeting either of the following two conditions are considered value-add properties: (1) Less than 75% leased as of the acquisition date (or will be less than 75% leased within one year of the acquisition date based on near term lease roll), or (2) 20% or greater of the cumulative gross cost of the property will be spent to redevelop the property. Properties qualifying under these conditions are included in Development and value-add properties in the quarter in which (1) they are acquired, if condition 1 above is met, or (2) when construction to redevelop begins.

Costs associated with development (i.e., land, construction costs, interest expense, property taxes and other costs associated with development) are aggregated into the total capitalized costs of the property.  Included in these costs are management’s estimates for the portions of internal costs (primarily personnel costs) deemed related to such development activities. The internal costs are allocated to specific development projects based on development activity. As the property becomes occupied, depreciation commences on the occupied portion of the building, and costs are capitalized only for the portion of the building that remains vacant. The Company transfers properties from Development and value-add properties to Real estate properties as follows: (1) for development properties, at the earlier of 90% occupancy or one year after completion of the shell construction, and (2) for value-add properties, at the earlier of 90% occupancy or one year after acquisition or completion of redevelopment, as applicable. Upon the earlier of 90% occupancy or one year after completion of the shell construction/value-add acquisition date, capitalization of development costs, including interest expense, property taxes and internal personnel costs, ceases and depreciation commences on the entire property (excluding the land).

(7)REAL ESTATE PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS AND ACQUIRED INTANGIBLES

Upon acquisition of real estate properties, EastGroup applies the principles of FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations. The FASB Codification provides a framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets or businesses. Under the guidance, companies are required to utilize an initial screening test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set is not a business. Criteria considered in grouping similar assets include geographic location, market and operational risks and the physical characteristics of the assets. EastGroup determined that its real estate property acquisitions in 2024 are considered to be acquisitions of groups of similar identifiable assets; therefore, the acquisitions are not considered to be acquisitions of a business. As a result, the Company capitalized acquisition costs related to its 2024 acquisitions.

The FASB Codification also provides guidance on how to properly determine the allocation of the purchase price among the individual components of both the tangible and intangible assets based on their respective fair values.  The allocation to tangible assets (land, building and improvements) is based upon management’s determination of the value of the property as if it were vacant using discounted cash flow models. Land is valued using comparable land sales specific to the applicable market, provided by a third party. The Company determines whether any financing assumed is above or below market based upon comparison to similar financing terms for similar properties.  The cost of the properties acquired may be adjusted based on indebtedness assumed from the seller that is determined to be above or below market rates.  

The purchase price is also allocated among the following categories of intangible assets: the above or below market component of in-place leases and the value of leases in-place at the time of acquisition.  The value allocable to the above or below market component of an acquired in-place lease is determined based upon the present value (using a discount rate reflecting the risks associated with the acquired leases) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the lease over its remaining term and (ii) management’s estimate of the amounts that would be paid using current market rents over the remaining term of the lease. The amounts allocated to above and below market lease intangibles are included in Other assets, net and Other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. In-place lease intangibles are valued based upon management’s assessment of factors such as an estimate of forgone rents and avoided leasing costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases.  These intangible assets are included in Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the remaining terms of the existing leases.

Net amortization of above and below market lease intangibles, which is included in Income from real estate operations, increased rental income by $1,520,000 and $3,087,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $546,000 and $1,153,000 for the same periods in 2024. Amortization expense for in-place lease intangibles, which is included in Depreciation and amortization, was $3,067,000 and $6,285,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $1,893,000 and $3,819,000 for the same periods in 2024.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, EastGroup purchased 94.5 acres of development land in two markets for $50,228,000. There were no operating or value-add acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

(8)REAL ESTATE SOLD AND HELD FOR SALE

The Company considers a real estate property to be held for sale when it meets the criteria established under ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, including when it is probable that the property will be sold within a year. Real estate properties held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell and are not depreciated while they are held for sale. The Company did not classify any properties as held for sale as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

In accordance with ASC 360 and ASC 205, Presentation of Financial Statements, the Company would report a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results when the component or group of components meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale or when the component or group of components is disposed of by sale or other than by sale. In addition, the Company would provide additional disclosures about both discontinued operations and the disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements. EastGroup performs an analysis of properties sold to determine whether the sales qualify for discontinued operations presentation.

Results of operations and gains and losses on sales for properties sold are reported in continuing operations on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The gains and losses on sales of operating properties are included in Gain on sales of real estate investments.

A summary of Gain on sales of real estate investments for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024 follows:

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company also sold 5.4 acres of land in two markets for $4,261,000 and recognized gains on the sales of $362,000. The Company did not sell any land during six months ended June 30, 2025. The gains on sales of non-operating real estate are included in Other on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

The Company did not consider its sales in 2025 or 2024 to be disposals of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity representing a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results.

(1)These loans have a fixed interest rate or an effectively fixed interest rate due to interest rate swaps.

The Company has a $625,000,000 unsecured bank credit facility with a group of 10 banks, which has a maturity date of July 31, 2028. The credit facility contains options for two six-month extensions (at the Company's election) and an additional $625,000,000 accordion (with agreement by all parties). The interest rate on each tranche is reset on a monthly basis and as of June 30, 2025, was Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 73.5 basis points with an annual facility fee of 14 basis points. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had no variable rate borrowings on this unsecured bank credit facility and an interest

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

rate of 5.162%. The Company has a $2,588,000 standby letter of credit pledged on this facility, which reduces borrowing capacity under the credit facility.

The Company also has a $50,000,000 unsecured bank credit facility with a maturity date of July 31, 2028, or such later date as designated by the bank; the Company also has two six-month extensions available if the extension options in the $625,000,000 facility are exercised. The interest rate is reset on a daily basis and as of June 30, 2025, was SOFR plus 77.5 basis points with an annual facility fee of 15 basis points. As of June 30, 2025, the interest rate was 5.275% with no outstanding balance.

For both facilities, the margin and facility fee are subject to changes in the Company's credit ratings. In May 2025, Moody’s Ratings affirmed EastGroup’s issuer rating of Baa2 and changed its rating outlook from stable to positive. Given the strength of the Company’s key credit metrics, initial pricing for the credit facilities is based on the BBB+/Baa1 credit ratings level. This favorable pricing level will be retained provided that the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in the applicable agreements, remains less than 32.5%.

The $625,000,000 facility also includes a sustainability-linked pricing component, pursuant to which the applicable interest rate margin is adjusted if the Company meets a certain sustainability performance target. This sustainability metric is evaluated annually and was achieved for the year ended December 31, 2024, which allowed for an interest rate reduction during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. The margin was effectively reduced on this unsecured bank credit facility by four basis points, from 77.5 to 73.5 basis points, and the facility fee was reduced from 15 to 14 basis points during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

In January 2025, the Company refinanced a $100,000,000 senior unsecured term loan, reducing the credit spread by 30 basis points to a total effectively fixed interest rate of 4.97%. The loan, which previously had five years remaining, now has a three-year maturity with two one-year extension options, at the Company's election.

In March 2025, EastGroup repaid a $50,000,000 senior unsecured term loan at maturity with an effectively fixed interest rate of 1.58%.

Scheduled principal payments on long-term debt, including Unsecured debt, net of debt issuance costs (not including Unsecured bank credit facilities, net of debt issuance costs), as of June 30, 2025, are as follows:

(14) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risk, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its debt funding and, to a limited extent, the use of derivative instruments.

Specifically, the Company has entered into derivative instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative instruments, described below, are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash payments principally related to certain of the Company’s borrowings.

The Company’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to change variable interest rates to fixed interest rates by using interest rate swaps. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the term of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. 

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had five interest rate swaps outstanding, all of which are used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with unsecured loans. All of the Company’s interest rate swaps convert the related loans’ Term SOFR rate components to effectively fixed interest rates, and the Company has concluded that each of the hedging relationships is highly effective.

The changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges are recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) and are subsequently reclassified into earnings through Interest expense as interest payments are made or received on the Company’s variable-rate debt in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The Company estimates that an additional $8,033,000 will be reclassified from Other comprehensive income (loss) as a decrease to Interest expense over the next twelve months.

The Company’s valuation methodology for over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives is to discount cash flows based on SOFR market data. Uncollateralized or partially-collateralized trades include appropriate economic adjustments for funding costs and credit risk. The Company calculates its derivative valuations using mid-market prices.

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

NOTIONAL VALUE OF INTEREST RATE DERIVATIVES						June 30, 2025						December 31, 2024

See Note 13 for additional information on the Company’s Accumulated other comprehensive income resulting from its interest rate swaps.

Derivative financial agreements expose the Company to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties under the terms of the interest rate hedge agreements. The Company believes it minimizes the credit risk by transacting with financial institutions the Company regards as credit-worthy.

The Company has an agreement with its derivative counterparties containing a provision stating that the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender. As of June 30, 2025, we had not posted any collateral related to these agreements and were not in breach of any of the provisions of these agreements. If the Company had breached any of these provisions, it would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value.

(15) EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company applies ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires companies to present basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”).  Basic EPS represents the amount of earnings for the period attributable to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period.  The Company’s basic EPS is calculated by dividing Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding does not include any potentially dilutive securities or any unvested restricted shares of common stock. Outstanding forward equity sale agreements are potentially dilutive securities that are excluded from the basic EPS calculation until the agreements are settled through the issuance of shares and receipt of proceeds. Although unvested restricted shares are classified as issued and outstanding, they are considered forfeitable until the restrictions lapse and are not included in the basic EPS calculation until the shares vest.

Diluted EPS represents the amount of earnings for the period attributable to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period and to each share that would have been outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the reporting period.  The Company calculates diluted EPS by dividing Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of any dilutive securities including shares issuable under forward equity sale agreements and unvested restricted stock using the treasury stock method. Any anti-dilutive securities are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation.

(16) EQUITY OFFERINGS

Underwriting commissions and offering costs incurred in connection with common stock offerings and at-the-market (“ATM”) equity offering programs have been reflected as a reduction of Additional paid-in capital.

Under relevant accounting guidance, sales of common stock under forward equity sale agreements are not deemed to be liabilities, and furthermore, meet the derivatives and hedging guidance scope exception to be accounted for as equity instruments based on the following assessment: (i) none of the agreements’ exercise contingencies were based on observable markets or indices other than those related to the market for our own stock price and operations; and (ii) none of the settlement provisions precluded the agreements from being indexed to our own stock.

On October 25, 2024, we established an ATM common stock offering program pursuant to which we are able to sell, from time to time, shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $1,000,000,000 (the “Current ATM Program”). The Current ATM Program replaced our previous $750,000,000 ATM program, which was established on October 25, 2023, under which we had sold shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of $746,153,000 through October 25, 2024.

In connection with the Current ATM Program, we may sell shares of our common stock directly through sales agents or through certain financial institutions acting as forward counterparties whereby, at our discretion, the forward counterparties, or their agents or affiliates, may borrow from third parties and subsequently sell shares of our common stock. The use of a forward equity sale agreement allows us to lock in a share price on the sale of shares of our common stock but defer settling and receiving the proceeds from the sale of shares until a later date. Additionally, the forward price that we expect to receive upon settlement of an agreement will be subject to adjustment for (i) a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily rate less a spread, (ii) the forward purchaser’s stock borrowing costs and (iii) scheduled dividends during the term of the agreement.

(4)EastGroup settled outstanding forward equity sale agreements by issuing 416,067 shares of common stock in exchange for net proceeds of approximately $74,098,000.

(17) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

EastGroup applies the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, to account for its stock-based compensation plans. ASC 718 requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements and that the cost be measured on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The cost for market-based awards and awards that only require service are expensed on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. The cost for performance-based awards is determined using the graded vesting attribution method which recognizes each separate vesting portion of the award as a separate award on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. This method accelerates the expensing of the award compared to the straight-line method. For awards with a performance condition, compensation expense is recognized when the performance condition is considered probable of achievement.

The total compensation expense for service-based and performance-based awards is based upon the fair market value of the shares on the grant date. The grant date fair value for awards that have been granted and are subject to a future market condition (total shareholder return) are determined using a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model developed to specifically accommodate the unique features of the awards.

EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

The Company accrues dividends on unvested restricted shares and holds the certificates for the shares. Employees may vote the shares once performance-based or market-based conditions are met. Share certificates and dividends are delivered to the employee as the shares vest. Forfeitures of awards are recognized as they occur.

The Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”) approves long-term and annual equity compensation awards for the Company’s executive officers. The vesting periods of the Company’s restricted stock plans vary, as determined by the Committee. Restricted stock is granted to executive officers subject to both continued service and the satisfaction of certain annual performance goals and multi-year market conditions as determined by the Committee.

The long-term compensation awards include components based on the Company’s total shareholder return over the upcoming three years and the employee’s continued service as of the vesting dates. The total shareholder return component is subject to bright-line tests that compare the Company’s total shareholder return to the member companies of the Nareit Equity Index and the Nareit industrial index. The Company begins recognizing expense for these awards based on the grant date fair value of the awards which is determined using a simulation pricing model developed to specifically accommodate the unique features of the award. These market-based awards are expensed on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period (75% vests at the end of the three-year performance period and 25% vests the following year). The long-term awards subject only to continuing employment are expensed on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period (25% vests in each of the following four years).

The annual equity compensation awards include components based on certain annual Company performance measures and individual annual performance goals over the upcoming year. The certain Company performance measures for 2025 are: (i) funds from operations (“FFO”) per share, (ii) cash same property net operating income change, (iii) debt-to-EBITDAre ratio, and (iv) fixed charge coverage. The Company begins recognizing expense for its estimate of the shares that could be earned pursuant to these awards on the grant date; the expense is adjusted to estimated performance levels during the performance period and to actual upon the determination of the awards. The shares are expensed using the graded vesting attribution method which recognizes each separate vesting portion of the award as a separate award on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period (34% vests at the end of the one-year performance period and 33% vests in each of the following two years). Any shares issued pursuant to the individual annual performance goals are determined by the Committee in its discretion following the performance period. The Company begins recognizing the expense for the shares on the grant date and will expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining service period (34% vests at the end of the one-year performance period and 33% vests in each of the following two years).

Equity compensation is also awarded to the Company’s non-executive officers and directors, which are subject to service only conditions and expensed on a straight-line basis over the required service period. The total compensation expense is based upon the fair market value of the shares on the grant date.

The Committee has adopted an Equity Award Retirement Policy (the “retirement policy”) which allows for accelerated vesting of unvested shares for retirement-eligible employees (defined as employees who meet certain age and years of service requirements). In order to qualify for accelerated vesting upon retirement, the eligible employees must provide required notification under the retirement policy and must retire from the Company. The Company has adjusted its stock-based compensation expense to accelerate the recognition of expense for retirement-eligible employees.

Stock-based compensation cost for employees was $2,476,000 and $7,061,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, of which $365,000 and $924,000 was capitalized as part of the Company’s development costs. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, stock-based compensation cost for employees was $2,472,000 and $6,448,000, respectively, of which $400,000 and $1,040,000 was capitalized as part of the Company’s development costs.

Stock-based compensation expense for directors was $192,000 and $398,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $172,000 and $343,000 for the same periods in 2024.

(1)Includes restricted shares granted during the year without performance or market conditions. Also includes restricted shares granted in previous years, for long-term and annual equity compensation awards for the Company's executive officers, for which performance-based or market-based conditions have been satisfied and the resulting number of shares have been determined during the year.

(2)Does not include restricted shares subject to open performance periods. For the long-term equity compensation awards established in 2023 and 2024 and the long-term and annual equity compensation awards established in 2025, the number of shares to be earned depends on the satisfaction of performance-based or market-based conditions, which may range from zero to 155,875.

(18) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  ASC 820 also provides guidance for using fair value to measure financial assets and liabilities.  The FASB Codification requires disclosure of the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall, including measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active (Level 2) and significant valuation assumptions that are not readily observable in the market (Level 3).

The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments in accordance with ASC 820 at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

			June 30, 2025												December 31, 2024
			Carrying Amount (1)						Fair Value						Carrying Amount (1)						Fair Value
			(In thousands)
Financial Assets:
Cash and cash equivalents			$	32,921					32,921						17,529						17,529
Interest rate swap assets			13,227						13,227						21,953						21,953
Financial Liabilities:
Unsecured debt (2)			1,460,000						1,379,943						1,510,000						1,403,754
Interest rate swap liabilities			2,337						2,337						—						—

(1)Carrying amounts shown in the table are included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets under the indicated captions, except as explained below.

(2)Carrying amounts and fair values shown in the table exclude debt issuance costs (see Note 10 for additional information).

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

•Cash and cash equivalents:  The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.

EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

•Interest rate swap assets (included in Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets): The instruments are recorded at fair value based on models using inputs, such as interest rate yield curves, SOFR swap curves, observable for substantially the full term of the contract (Level 2 input). See Note 14 for additional information on the Company’s interest rate swaps.

•Unsecured debt:  The fair value of the Company’s unsecured debt is estimated by discounting expected cash flows at the rates currently offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities, as advised by the Company’s bankers (Level 2 input), excluding the effects of debt issuance costs.

•Interest rate swap liabilities (included in Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets): The instruments are recorded at fair value based on models using inputs, such as interest rate yield curves, SOFR swap curves, observable for substantially the full term of the contract (Level 2 input). See Note 14 for additional information on the Company’s interest rate swaps.

(19) RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The state of the overall economy can significantly impact the Company’s operational performance and thus impact its financial position.  Should EastGroup experience a significant decline in operational performance, it may affect the Company’s ability to make distributions to its shareholders, service debt or meet other financial obligations.

(20) LEGAL MATTERS

The Company is not presently involved in any material litigation nor, to its knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against the Company or its properties, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business.

(21) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

EastGroup has evaluated all ASUs recently released by the FASB through the date the financial statements were issued and determined that the following ASUs apply to the Company.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date. ASU 2024-03 requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement as well as disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the income statement. ASU 2024-03, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. Amendments should be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date, or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. EastGroup does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or disclosures.

(22) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to June 30, 2025, EastGroup settled outstanding forward equity sale agreements under the Current ATM Program by issuing 647,758 shares of common stock in exchange for net proceeds of approximately $117,065,000.

Also subsequent to June 30, 2025, in separate transactions, EastGroup acquired two business distribution buildings for approximately $61,400,000. The buildings expand the Company’s portfolio in Raleigh by a combined 318,000 square feet.

In July 2025, the Company also purchased 37.4 acres of development land in Orlando for approximately $8,500,000.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of the federal securities laws, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that reflect EastGroup Properties, Inc.’s (the “Company” or “EastGroup”) expectations and projections about the Company’s future results, performance, prospects, plans and opportunities. The Company has attempted to identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “seek,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “targets,” “intends,” “should,” “estimates,” “could,” “continue,” “assume,” “projects,” “goals,” “plans” or variations of such words and similar expressions or the negative of such words, although not all forward-looking statements contain such words. These forward-looking statements are based on information currently available to the Company and are subject to a number of known and unknown assumptions, risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the Company’s actual results, performance, plans or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other things, those discussed below. The Company intends for all such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, as applicable by law. The Company does not undertake to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of changes in underlying assumptions or new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

The following are some, but not all, of the risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those presented in the Company’s forward-looking statements (the Company refers to itself as “we,” “us” or “our” in the following):

•international, national, regional and local economic conditions and conflicts;

•the competitive environment in which the Company operates;

•fluctuations of occupancy or rental rates;

•potential defaults (including bankruptcies or insolvency) on or non-renewal of leases by tenants, or our ability to lease space at current or anticipated rents, particularly in light of the ongoing uncertainty around interest rates, tariffs and general economic conditions;

•disruption in supply and delivery chains;

•increased construction and development costs, including as a result of tariffs or the recent inflationary environment;

•acquisition and development risks, including failure of such acquisitions and development projects to perform in accordance with our projections or to materialize at all;

•potential changes in the law or governmental regulations and interpretations of those laws and regulations, including changes in real estate laws, real estate investment trust (“REIT”) or corporate income tax laws, potential changes in zoning laws, or increases in real property tax rates, and any related increased cost of compliance;

•our ability to maintain our qualification as a REIT;

•natural disasters such as fires, floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes or other extreme weather events, which may or may not be directly caused by longer-term shifts in climate patterns, could destroy buildings and damage regional economies;

•the availability of financing and capital, increases in or long-term elevated interest rates, and our ability to raise equity capital on attractive terms;

•financing risks, including the risks that our cash flows from operations may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest, and we may be unable to refinance our existing debt upon maturity or obtain new financing on attractive terms or at all;

•our ability to retain our credit agency ratings;

•our ability to comply with applicable financial covenants;

•credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to our interest rate swaps;

•how and when pending forward equity sales may settle;

•lack of or insufficient amounts of insurance;

•litigation, including costs associated with prosecuting or defending claims and any adverse outcomes;

•our ability to attract and retain key personnel or lack of adequate succession planning;

-24-

•risks related to the failure, inadequacy or interruption of our data security systems and processes, including security breaches through cyber attacks;

•pandemics, epidemics or other public health emergencies, such as the coronavirus pandemic;

•environmental liabilities, including costs, fines or penalties that may be incurred due to necessary remediation of contamination of properties presently owned or previously owned by us.

The risks included herein are not exhaustive, and investors should be aware that there may be other factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.

All forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risks identified in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as such factors may be updated from time to time in the Company’s periodic filings and current reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

OVERVIEW

EastGroup’s goal is to maximize shareholder value by being a leading provider in its markets of functional, flexible and quality business distribution space for location-sensitive customers (primarily in the 20,000 to 100,000 square foot range).  The Company develops, acquires and operates distribution facilities, the majority of which are clustered around major transportation features in supply constrained submarkets in high-growth markets.  The Company’s core markets are in the states of Texas, Florida, California, Arizona and North Carolina.

As of June 30, 2025, EastGroup owned 539 industrial properties in 12 states. As of that same date, the Company’s portfolio, including development projects and value-add properties in lease-up and under construction, included approximately 63,600,000 square feet consisting of 501 business distribution properties containing 58,300,000 square feet, 17 bulk distribution properties containing 4,400,000 square feet, and 21 business service properties containing 900,000 square feet.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, economic uncertainty and stock market volatility continued due to a number of factors, including persistent inflation, interest rate uncertainty, concerns about tariffs, supply chain or trade disruptions, and geopolitical conflict. While these factors did not have a significant adverse impact on EastGroup during the six months ended June 30, 2025, they may adversely impact the Company in the future. Most of the Company’s leases require the tenants to pay their pro rata share of operating expenses, including real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance, thereby reducing the Company’s exposure to increases in operating expenses resulting from inflation or other factors. Additionally, most of the Company's leases include scheduled rent increases. In the event inflation causes increases in the Company’s general and administrative expenses, or higher interest rates increase the Company’s cost of doing business, such increased costs would not be passed through to tenants and could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations. The Company continues to monitor inflation and interest rates, as well as the uncertainty resulting from the overall regulatory and economic environment.

EastGroup believes its current operating cash flow and unsecured bank credit facilities provide the capacity to fund the operations of the Company, and the Company also believes it can issue common and/or preferred equity and obtain debt financing on currently acceptable terms.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, EastGroup sold, and subsequently settled the issuance of, 33,120 shares of common stock directly through sales agents under its at-the-market (“ATM”) common stock offering program at a weighted average price of $183.15 per share, providing aggregate net proceeds to the Company of $6,005,000.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, EastGroup entered into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward counterparties under its ATM common stock offering program with respect to 1,063,825 shares of common stock with an initial weighted average forward price of $181.89 per share. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of common shares by the forward counterparties at the time we entered into forward equity sale agreements. Also during the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company settled outstanding forward equity sale agreements that were previously entered into by issuing 801,320 shares of common stock in exchange for net proceeds of approximately $141,000,000.

-25-

Additionally, on June 13, 2024, the Company amended its unsecured bank credit facilities to extend the maturity date by three years to July 31, 2028. EastGroup’s financing and equity issuances are further described in Liquidity and Capital Resources.

The Company’s primary source of revenue is rental income.  During the six months ended June 30, 2025, EastGroup executed new and renewal leases on 4,532,000 square feet (representing 7.6% of the operating portfolio’s total square footage of 59,873,000). For new and renewal leases signed during the first six months of 2025, average rental rates increased by 45.8%, as compared to the former leases on the same spaces.

On a diluted per share basis, Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders was $2.35 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.37 for the same period of 2024, a 0.8% decrease. See the Company’s analysis of performance trends below for further details.

Property Net Operating Income (“PNOI”), Excluding Income from Lease Terminations, from same properties (defined as operating properties owned during the entire period from January 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025), increased 5.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024.

EastGroup’s operating portfolio was 97.1% leased and 96.0% occupied as of June 30, 2025, compared to 97.4% and 97.1%, respectively, at June 30, 2024.  As of July 22, 2025, the operating portfolio was 96.6% leased and 95.3% occupied. As of June 30, 2025, leases approximating 4.6% of the operating portfolio, based on a percentage of annualized based rent, were scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2025. This percentage was reduced to 3.4% as of July 22, 2025.

The Company generates new sources of leasing revenue through its acquisitions and also its development and value-add program. The Company mitigates risks associated with development through a Board-approved maximum level of land held for development and by adjusting development start dates according to leasing activity.   

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, EastGroup acquired 94.5 acres of development land in two markets for $50,228,000. The Company also began construction of a redevelopment project and two development projects containing 731,000 square feet in three markets.  EastGroup also transferred six development projects (1,160,000 square feet) in five markets from Development and value-add properties to Real estate properties, with costs of $151,928,000 at the date of transfer. As of June 30, 2025, EastGroup’s development and value-add program consisted of 18 projects (3,714,000 square feet) located in 13 markets. The projected total investment for the development projects, which were collectively 16.3% leased as of July 22, 2025, is $531,400,000, of which $157,835,000 remained to be invested as of June 30, 2025.

There were no operating property or value-add property acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, EastGroup sold a 12,000 square foot operating property in San Francisco, generating gross sales proceeds of $3,573,000. The Company did not recognize a gain or loss on this disposition.

The Company typically funds its development and acquisition programs through its $675,000,000 unsecured bank credit facilities (as discussed in Liquidity and Capital Resources).  As market conditions permit, EastGroup issues equity and/or employs fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, to replace short-term bank borrowings. In May 2025, Moody’s Ratings affirmed EastGroup’s issuer rating of Baa2 and changed its rating outlook from stable to positive. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. For future debt issuances, the Company intends to issue primarily unsecured fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps. The Company may also access the public debt or convertible bond markets in the future as a means to raise capital.

Investors and industry analysts following the real estate industry primarily utilize two supplemental operating performance measures in analyzing the Company’s operating results: (1) funds from operations (“FFO”) attributable to common stockholders, and (2) property net operating income (“PNOI”).  

FFO is computed in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“Nareit”). Nareit’s guidance allows preparers an option as it pertains to whether gains or losses on sale, or impairment charges, on real estate assets incidental to a REIT’s business are excluded from the calculation of FFO. EastGroup has made the election to exclude activity related to such assets that are incidental to our business.

-26-

FFO is calculated as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), excluding gains and losses from sales of real estate property (including other assets incidental to the Company’s business) and impairment losses, adjusted for real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is not considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of the Company’s financial performance, nor is it a measure of the Company’s liquidity or indicative of funds available to provide for the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make distributions.  The Company’s key drivers affecting FFO are changes in PNOI (as discussed below), interest rates, the amount of leverage the Company employs and general and administrative expenses.  

PNOI is defined as Income from real estate operations less Expenses from real estate operations (including market-based internal management fee expense) plus the Company’s share of income and property operating expenses from its less-than-wholly-owned real estate investments.

EastGroup sometimes refers to PNOI from Same Properties as “Same PNOI”; the Company also presents Same PNOI, Excluding Income from Lease Terminations. Same Properties is defined as operating properties owned during the entire current and prior year reporting periods. Properties developed or acquired are excluded until held in the operating portfolio for both the current and prior year reporting periods. Properties sold during the current or prior year reporting periods are also excluded. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, Same Properties includes properties which were included in the operating portfolio for the entire period from January 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025. The Company presents Same PNOI and Same PNOI, Excluding Income from Lease Terminations, as a property-level supplemental measure of performance used to evaluate the performance of the Company’s investments in real estate assets and its operating results on a same property basis.

FFO and PNOI are supplemental industry reporting measurements used to evaluate the performance of the Company’s investments in real estate assets and its operating results. The Company believes that the exclusion of depreciation and amortization in the calculations of PNOI and FFO provides supplemental indicators of the properties’ performance since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions.  PNOI and FFO as calculated by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled but differently calculated measures for other REITs.  Investors should be aware that items excluded from or added back to FFO are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial performance. These non-GAAP figures should not be considered a substitute for, and should only be considered together with and as a supplement to, the Company’s financial information presented in accordance with GAAP.

PROPERTY NET OPERATING INCOME (“PNOI”)			$	129,184					113,775						255,362						225,138

Income from real estate operations is comprised of rental income, expense reimbursement pass-through income and other real estate income.  Expenses from real estate operations is comprised of property taxes, insurance, utilities, repair and maintenance expenses, management fees and other operating costs.  Generally, the Company’s most significant operating expenses are property taxes and insurance.  Tenant leases may be net leases in which the total operating expenses are recoverable, modified gross leases in which some of the operating expenses are recoverable, or gross leases in which no expenses are recoverable (gross leases represent only a small portion of the Company’s total leases).  Increases in property operating expenses are fully recoverable under net leases and recoverable to a high degree under modified gross leases.  Modified gross leases often include base year amounts, and expense increases over these amounts are recoverable.  The Company’s exposure to property operating expenses is primarily due to vacancies and leases for occupied space that limit the amount of expenses that can be recovered.

The Company capitalized internal development costs of $1,717,000 and $3,671,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, compared to $2,032,000 and $4,255,000 for the same periods of 2024. The decrease was due to variations in timing and volume of development projects under construction.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company acquired 94.5 acres of development land in two markets for $50,228,000. Costs associated with this acquisition are included in the Development and Value-Add Properties table.

The costs are amortized over the terms of the associated leases, and the amortization is included in Depreciation and amortization expense.  Capitalized leasing costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

									Three Months Ended June 30,												Six Months Ended June 30,
			Estimated Useful Life						2025						2024						2025						2024

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company anticipates that its current cash balance, operating cash flows, borrowings under its unsecured bank credit facilities, proceeds from new debt and/or proceeds from the issuance of equity instruments will be adequate for (i) operating and administrative expenses, (ii) normal repair and maintenance expenses at its properties, (iii) debt service obligations, (iv) maintaining compliance with its debt covenants, (v) distributions to stockholders, (vi) capital improvements, (vii) purchases of properties, (viii) development, and (ix) any other normal business activities of the Company, both in the short-term and long-term. The Company expects liquidity sources and needs in the coming year to be consistent in nature with those for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

As market conditions permit, EastGroup issues equity and/or employs fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, to replace the short-term bank borrowings.  The Company believes its current operating cash flow and unsecured bank credit facilities provide the capacity to fund the operations of the Company.  The Company also believes it can obtain debt financing and issue common and/or preferred equity.

For future debt issuances, the Company intends to issue primarily unsecured fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps. The Company may also access the public debt or convertible bond markets in the future as a means to raise capital.

As of June 30, 2025, EastGroup had total immediate liquidity of approximately $823,832,000 comprised of $32,921,000 of cash and cash equivalents, $672,412,000 of availability on our unsecured credit facilities, and approximately $118,499,000 of gross proceeds available on our outstanding forward equity sale agreements. See further details discussed below.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $277,081,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025.  The primary other sources of cash were proceeds from common stock offerings and borrowings on unsecured bank credit facilities.  The Company distributed $146,299,000 in common stock dividends during the six months ended June 30, 2025.  Other primary uses of cash were for the construction and development of properties; repayments on unsecured debt and unsecured bank credit facilities; and capital improvements at various properties.

As of June 30, 2025, the Company was contractually obligated to pay the dividend declared in May 2025, which was paid in July 2025. An amount for dividends payable of $74,932,000 was included in Accounts payable and accrued expenses at June 30, 2025, which includes dividends payable on unvested restricted stock of $1,277,000, which are subject to continued service and will be paid upon vesting in future periods.

Scheduled principal payments on long-term debt, including Unsecured debt, net of debt issuance costs (not including Unsecured bank credit facilities, net of debt issuance costs), as of June 30, 2025, are as follows: 

MATURITY DATES						Weighted Average Interest Rate (1)						Principal Payments Maturing
												(In thousands)
August 28, 2025						3.80%						$	20,000
October 1, 2025						3.97%						25,000
October 7, 2025						3.99%						50,000
Year 2026						2.56%						140,000
Year 2027						2.74%						175,000
Year 2028						3.10%						160,000
Year 2029						3.88%						155,000
Year 2030 and beyond						3.57%						735,000
Total Unsecured Debt						3.38%						$	1,460,000

(1)These loans have a fixed interest rate or an effectively fixed interest rate due to interest rate swaps.

In January 2025, EastGroup refinanced a $100,000,000 senior unsecured term loan, reducing the credit spread by 30 basis points to a total effectively fixed interest rate of 4.97%. The loan, which previously had five years remaining, now has a three-year maturity with two one-year extension options, at the Company's election.

In March 2025, EastGroup repaid a $50,000,000 senior unsecured term loan at maturity with an effectively fixed interest rate of 1.58%.

The Company has a $625,000,000 unsecured bank credit facility with a group of 10 banks, which has a maturity date of July 31, 2028. The credit facility contains options for two six-month extensions (at the Company's election) and an additional $625,000,000 accordion (with agreement by all parties). The interest rate on each tranche is reset on a monthly basis and as of June 30, 2025, was SOFR plus 73.5 basis points with an annual facility fee of 14 basis points. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had no variable rate borrowings on this unsecured bank credit facility and an interest rate of 5.162%. The Company has a $2,588,000 standby letter of credit pledged on this facility, which reduces borrowing capacity under the credit facility.

The Company also has a $50,000,000 unsecured bank credit facility with a maturity date of July 31, 2028, or such later date as designated by the bank; the Company also has two six-month extensions available if the extension options in the $625,000,000 facility are exercised. The interest rate is reset on a daily basis and as of June 30, 2025, was SOFR plus 77.5 basis points with an annual facility fee of 15 basis points. As of June 30, 2025, the interest rate was 5.275% with no outstanding balance.

For both facilities, the margin and facility fee are subject to changes in the Company's credit ratings. In May 2025, Moody’s Ratings affirmed EastGroup’s issuer rating of Baa2 and changed its rating outlook from stable to positive. Given the strength of the Company’s key credit metrics, initial pricing for the credit facilities is based on the BBB+/Baa1 credit ratings level. This favorable pricing level will be retained provided that the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in the applicable agreements, remains less than 32.5%.

The $625,000,000 facility also includes a sustainability-linked pricing component, pursuant to which the applicable interest rate margin is adjusted if the Company meets a certain sustainability performance target. This sustainability metric is evaluated annually and was achieved for the year ended December 31, 2024, which allowed for an interest rate reduction during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. The margin was effectively reduced on this unsecured bank credit facility by four basis points, from 77.5 to 73.5 basis points, and the facility fee was reduced from 15 to 14 basis points during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

-37-

The Company’s unsecured bank credit facilities have certain restrictive covenants, such as maintaining minimum debt service coverage and leverage ratios and maintaining insurance coverage, and the Company was in compliance with all of its financial debt covenants at June 30, 2025.

On October 25, 2024, we established an ATM common stock offering program pursuant to which we are able to sell, from time to time, shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $1,000,000,000 (the “Current ATM Program”). The Current ATM Program replaced our previous $750,000,000 ATM program (the “Prior ATM Program”), which was established on October 25, 2023, under which we had sold shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of $746,153,000 through October 25, 2024.

In connection with the Current ATM Program, we may sell shares of our common stock through sales agents or through certain financial institutions acting as forward counterparties whereby, at our discretion, the forward counterparties, or their agents or affiliates, may borrow from third parties and subsequently sell shares of our common stock. The use of a forward equity sale agreement allows us to lock in a share price on the sale of shares of our common stock but defer settling and receiving the proceeds from the sale of shares until a later date. Additionally, the forward price that we expect to receive upon settlement of an agreement will be subject to adjustment for (i) a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily rate less a spread, (ii) the forward purchaser’s stock borrowing costs and (iii) scheduled dividends during the term of the agreement.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, EastGroup sold, and subsequently settled the issuance of, 33,120 shares of common stock directly through sales agents under its ATM program at a weighted average price of $183.15 per share, providing aggregate net proceeds to the Company of $6,005,000.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, EastGroup entered into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward counterparties under the Current ATM Program with respect to 1,063,825 shares of common stock with an initial weighted average forward price of $181.89 per share. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of common shares by the forward counterparties at the time it entered into forward equity sale agreements. Also during the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company settled outstanding forward equity sale agreements that were previously entered into under its ATM programs by issuing 801,320 shares of common stock in exchange for net proceeds of approximately $141,000,000.

Subsequent to June 30, 2025, EastGroup settled outstanding forward equity sale agreements that were previously entered into under the ATM programs by issuing 647,758 shares of common stock in exchange for net proceeds of approximately $117,065,000. As of July 22, 2025, the Company had no outstanding forward shares available for settlement.

As of July 22, 2025, approximately $520,101,000 of common stock remains available to be sold. Future sales, if any, will depend on a variety of factors, including among others, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock, determinations by us of the appropriate sources of funding for us and potential uses of funding available to us.

EastGroup’s other material cash requirements from known contractual and other obligations, including real estate property obligations, development and value-add obligations and tenant improvements as of December 31, 2024, did not materially change during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The Company has no material off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The Company’s management considers the following accounting policies and estimates to be critical to the reported operations of the Company.

Acquisition and Development of Real Estate Properties

The FASB Codification provides guidance on how to properly determine the allocation of the purchase price among the individual components of both the tangible and intangible assets based on their respective fair values.  Factors considered by management in allocating the cost of the properties acquired include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases.  The allocation to tangible assets (land, building and improvements) is based upon management’s determination of the value of the property as if it were vacant using discounted cash flow models. Land is valued using comparable land sales specific to the applicable market, provided by a third party. The Company determines whether any financing assumed is above or below market based upon comparison to similar

-38-

financing terms for similar properties.  The cost of the properties acquired may be adjusted based on indebtedness assumed from the seller that is determined to be above or below market rates.  

The purchase price is also allocated among the following categories of intangible assets:  the above or below market component of in-place leases and the value of leases in-place at the time of acquisition.  The value allocable to the above or below market component of an acquired in-place lease is determined based upon the present value (using a discount rate reflecting the risks associated with the acquired leases) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the lease over its remaining term and (ii) management’s estimate of the amounts that would be paid using current market rents over the remaining term of the lease. The amounts allocated to above and below market lease intangibles are included in Other assets, net and Other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. In-place lease intangibles are valued based upon management’s assessment of factors such as an estimate of forgone rents and avoided leasing costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases.  These intangible assets are included in Other assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the remaining term of the existing lease.

The significance of this accounting policy will fluctuate given the transaction activity during the period.

For properties included in Development and value-add properties, costs associated with development (i.e., land, construction costs, interest expense, property taxes and other costs associated with development) are aggregated into the total capitalized costs of the property.  Included in these costs are management’s estimates for the portions of internal costs (primarily personnel costs) deemed related to such development activities. The internal costs are allocated to specific development properties based on development activity.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

See Note 21 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

SUPPLEMENTAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following discussion supplements and updates the disclosures under the heading “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations” in the prospectus dated December 16, 2022, contained in our Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-268821) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 16, 2022, (the “S-3 Tax Disclosure”) and as supplemented by the disclosures under the heading “Supplemental U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 12, 2025 (together with the S-3 Tax Disclosure, the “Existing Tax Disclosure”). Capitalized terms herein that are not otherwise defined shall have the same meaning as when used in the Existing Tax Disclosure.

On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1, informally known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBB”), was enacted. The OBBB makes major changes to the Code, including some provisions of the Code that affect the taxation of REITs and their investors. In particular:

•For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2026, the OBBB relaxed the REIT asset test requirement with respect to taxable REIT subsidiaries, providing that not more than 25% (relaxed from 20%) of the gross value of a REIT’s assets may be represented by securities of one or more taxable REIT subsidiaries.

•The OBBB permanently extended the section 199A pass-through qualified business income deduction, generally allowing certain individuals, trusts and estates to deduct 20% of the aggregate amount of qualified REIT dividends distributed by a REIT. This deduction was due to expire for tax years beginning after December 31, 2025.

To the extent the information set forth in the Existing Tax Disclosure is inconsistent with this supplemental information, this supplemental information supersedes the information in the Existing Tax Disclosure. This supplemental information is provided on the same basis and subject to the same qualifications as are set forth in the first six paragraphs of the S-3 Tax Disclosure as if those paragraphs were set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The Company is exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of its unsecured bank credit facilities and long-term debt maturities.  This debt is used to maintain liquidity and fund capital expenditures and expansion of the Company’s real estate investment portfolio and operations.  The Company’s objective for interest rate risk management is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall borrowing costs.  The Company has two variable rate unsecured bank credit facilities as discussed under Liquidity and Capital Resources. As market conditions permit, EastGroup issues equity and/or employs fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, to replace the short-term bank borrowings.  The Company’s interest rate swaps are discussed in Note 14 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.  

The table below presents the principal payments due and weighted average interest rates, which include the impact of interest rate swaps, for both the fixed-rate and variable-rate debt as of June 30, 2025.

			July – December 2025						2026						2027						2028						2029						Thereafter						Total						Fair Value
Unsecured bank credit facilities — Variable rate (in thousands)			$	—					—						—						—			(1)			—						—						—						—			(2)
Weighted average interest rate			—						—						—						5.22		%	(3)			—						—						5.22		%
Unsecured debt — Fixed rate         (in thousands)			$	95,000					140,000						175,000						160,000						155,000						735,000						1,460,000						1,379,943			(4)
Weighted average interest rate			3.94		%				2.56		%				2.74		%				3.10		%				3.88		%				3.57		%				3.38		%

(1)The variable-rate unsecured bank credit facilities mature in July 2028 and, as of June 30, 2025, have zero drawn on both the $625,000,000 unsecured bank credit facility and the $50,000,000 unsecured bank credit facility. These balances fluctuate based on Company operations and capital activity, as discussed in Liquidity and Capital Resources.

(2)The fair value of the Company’s variable rate debt is estimated by discounting expected cash flows at current market rates, excluding the effects of debt issuance costs.

(3)Represents the weighted average interest rate for the Company’s variable rate unsecured bank credit facilities as of June 30, 2025.

(4)The fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, is estimated by discounting expected cash flows at the rates currently offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities, as advised by the Company’s bankers, excluding the effects of debt issuance costs.

As the table above incorporates only those exposures that existed as of June 30, 2025, it does not consider those exposures or positions that could arise after that date.  Assuming there was a $100,000,000 balance on the unsecured bank credit facilities, and if interest rates change by 10% or approximately 52 basis points, interest expense and cash flows would increase or decrease by approximately $522,000 annually. This does not include variable-rate debt that has been effectively fixed through the use of interest rate swaps.

Most of the Company’s leases include scheduled rent increases. Additionally, most of the Company’s leases require the tenants to pay their pro rata share of operating expenses, including real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance, thereby reducing the Company’s exposure to increases in operating expenses resulting from inflation or other factors. In the event inflation causes increases in the Company’s general and administrative expenses or the level of interest rates, such increased costs would not be passed through to tenants and could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.

EastGroup’s financial results are affected by general economic conditions in the markets in which the Company’s properties are located. The state of the economy or other adverse changes in general or local economic conditions could result in the inability of some of the Company’s existing tenants to make lease payments and may therefore result in uncollectible rent, reducing Income from real estate operations. It may also impact the Company’s ability to (i) renew leases or re-lease space as leases expire, or (ii) lease development space. In addition, an economic downturn or recession could also lead to an increase in overall vacancy rates or a decline in rents the Company can charge to re-lease properties upon expiration of current leases. In all of these cases, EastGroup’s cash flows would be adversely affected.

Substantially all of these matters are anticipated to be covered by the Company’s liability insurance. The Company cannot predict the outcome of any litigation with certainty, and some lawsuits, claims or proceedings may be disposed of unfavorably to the Company, which could materially affect its financial condition or results of operations.
