Gladstone Land Corporation filed an amendment to update a prior report about changes to its capital structure. The company discovered immaterial errors in earlier Articles Supplementary filed in Maryland and has now corrected them through a Certificate of Correction.

The correction clarifies that no shares of 5.00% Series D Cumulative Term Preferred Stock were reclassified, because none were authorized and outstanding on the effective filing date. It also confirms that authorized capital stock as of that date totals 100,000,000 shares, allocated among common stock and several preferred series without changing overall authorization.

Gladstone Land Corporation filed an amendment to its 2025 annual report to correct previously misstated authorized share amounts for its Series C and Series D preferred stock and common stock; the changes are described as immaterial and do not alter prior financial results.

For 2025, the company generated total operating revenues of $88.3 million, including $76.1 million of lease revenue and $12.2 million of new crop sales, and reported net income of $13.5 million. After $24.0 million of dividends on cumulative redeemable preferred stock, net loss attributable to common stockholders was $10.5 million, or $0.29 per share.

At year-end 2025, Gladstone Land owned 144 farms totaling 98,688 acres with total real estate, net, of $1.10 billion and total assets of $1.24 billion. Cash provided by operating activities was $7.0 million, while property sales produced $91.3 million of proceeds and gains on dispositions of real estate assets, net, of $13.9 million. The company recorded $3.9 million of impairment losses on certain Florida and California properties and ended the year with total equity of $670.3 million.

Sateri has been with the Gladstone Companies since 2007 and most recently served as Executive Vice President of Investments, sitting on the Investment Committee and originating debt and equity investments. The company notes that its executives, including Sateri, are compensated by an external adviser and administrator, as Gladstone Land currently has no employees.

Gladstone Land Corporation reported a sharp rebound in fourth-quarter 2025 results driven by a shift toward participation-based rents and new direct farming income. Q4 operating revenues rose to $41.5 million, nearly doubling the prior year, with net income of $4.2 million. However, after preferred dividends, common shareholders still recorded a net loss of $1.8 million, or $0.05 per share.

Key REIT cash metric AFFO for Q4 increased to $14.4 million, or $0.38 per share, from $3.4 million, or $0.09, helped by roughly $20.0 million of participation rents, a $2.1 million lease termination fee, and $2.6 million of net income from crop sales. For 2025 as a whole, operating revenues edged up to $88.3 million, but AFFO declined to $14.4 million, or $0.39 per share, from $16.7 million, or $0.47, as farm sales, higher operating costs, and revenue timing offset gains.

During 2025 the company sold 13 farms totaling 12,502 acres for about $95.4 million, realizing net gains of roughly $21.3 million, and reduced total indebtedness to $535.9 million. Subsequent to year-end, it redeemed all $60.6 million of 5.00% Series D Term Preferred Stock and raised about $33.0 million via its ATM equity program. Management highlighted favorable nut crop pricing, plans to return leases to more fixed base rent, and strong liquidity with over $85 million of immediately available capital.

Gladstone Land Corporation files its annual report as an agricultural REIT focused on owning and leasing U.S. farmland. The company is externally managed and conducts operations through an UPREIT structure.

Gladstone Land owns 144 farms totaling 98,688 acres across 14 states, plus 55,532 acre-feet of water assets in California as of December 31, 2025. Most properties are triple-net leased to medium-sized independent farming operations, with some leases including participation rent tied to farm revenue and a smaller number of farms temporarily operated directly via third-party management agreements or a taxable REIT subsidiary.

The strategy centers on long-term ownership of farmland and farm-related facilities, geographic and crop diversification, selective use of leverage, and occasional sales for capital gains. Key risks highlighted include geographic concentration, exposure to crop prices and yields, climate and water availability, tenant credit risk and bankruptcies, illiquidity of farmland, dependence on external capital to fund growth, management conflicts of interest due to external advisory relationships, and maintaining REIT and partnership tax status.
