PART I
Item 1 – Business
General Development of Business
UMH Properties, Inc. (“UMH”), together with its predecessors and consolidated subsidiaries, are referred to herein as “we”, “us”, “our”, or “the Company”, unless the context requires otherwise.
UMH is a Maryland corporation that operates as a self-administered and self-managed qualified real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). The Company elected REIT status effective January 1, 1992 and intends to maintain its qualification as a REIT in the future. As a qualified REIT, with limited exceptions, the Company will not be taxed under Federal and certain state income tax laws at the corporate level on taxable income that it distributes to its shareholders. For special tax provisions applicable to REITs, refer to Sections 856-860 of the Code.
UMH was incorporated in the state of New Jersey in 1968. On September 29, 2003, UMH changed its state of incorporation from New Jersey to Maryland by merging with and into a Maryland corporation. Our executive office is located in Freehold, New Jersey.
Description of Business
The Company’s primary business is the ownership and operation of manufactured home communities – leasing manufactured homesites to residents. The Company also leases manufactured homes to residents and, through its wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary, UMH Sales and Finance, Inc. (“S&F”), sells and finances the sale of manufactured homes to residents and prospective residents of our communities and for placement on customers’ privately-owned land. In 2022, the Company also formed an opportunity zone fund, UMH OZ Fund, LLC (“OZ Fund”), to acquire, develop and redevelop manufactured home communities requiring substantial capital investment and located in areas designated as Qualified Opportunity Zones by the Treasury Department pursuant to a program authorized under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “TCJA”). The purpose of this program is to encourage long-term investment in economically distressed areas. The Company holds a 77% interest in the OZ Fund, which owns two communities, located in South Carolina and Georgia.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company operated a portfolio of 145 manufactured home communities, of which 142 are majority owned and are included in our consolidated operations with the remaining three owned through our joint ventures with Nuveen Real Estate (“Nuveen” or “Nuveen Real Estate”) in which the Company has a 40% interest. One of these joint ventures owns two communities in Florida (Sebring Square and Rum Runner) and one joint venture owns one community in Pennsylvania (Honey Ridge). Of the 142 majority owned communities, 140 are owned 100% by the Company with the remaining two owned by the Company’s Opportunity Zone Fund, in which the Company has a 77% interest. (See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Note 5 “Investment in Joint Ventures” and Note 6 “Opportunity Zone Fund” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). The Company’s portfolio of 145 communities contain a total of approximately 27,100 developed homesites, of which 11,000 contain rental homes that are leased to residents. These 145 communities are located in twelve states consisting of New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Alabama, South Carolina, Florida and Georgia. In addition, the Company has over 1,000 self-storage units available for leasing by residents.
A manufactured home community is designed to accommodate detached or semi-attached, single-family manufactured homes. These manufactured homes are produced off-site by manufacturers and installed on sites within the communities. These homes may be improved with the addition of features constructed on-site, including garages, screened rooms and carports. Manufactured homes are available in a variety of designs and floor plans, offering many amenities and custom options. Each homeowner leases the site from the Company on which the manufactured home is located. Generally, the Company owns the underlying land, utility connections, streets, lighting, driveways, common area amenities and other capital improvements and is responsible for enforcement of community rules and regulations and maintenance.
Manufactured homes are accepted by the public as a viable and economically attractive alternative to conventional site-built single-family housing. The affordability of the modern manufactured home makes it a very attractive housing alternative. Depending on the region of the country, prices per square foot for a new manufactured home average up to 50 percent less than a comparable site-built home, excluding the cost of land. This is due to a number of factors, including volume purchase discounts, inventory control of construction materials and control of all aspects of the construction process, which is generally a more efficient, environmentally friendly and streamlined process as compared to a site-built home. In addition, manufactured homes are built in factories, shielded from the weather-related elements, using a controlled environment for efficiency and quality, with components assembled and inspected before being transported to the final site.

Modern residential land lease communities are similar to typical residential subdivisions containing central entrances, paved well-lit streets, curbs and gutters. Generally, modern manufactured home communities contain buildings for recreation, green areas, and other common area facilities, all of which are the property of the community owner. In addition to such general improvements, certain manufactured home communities include recreational improvements such as swimming pools, splash pads, tennis & pickleball courts, dog parks and playgrounds. Municipal water and sewer services are available in some manufactured home communities, while other communities supply these services on-site.
Typically, our leases are on an annual or month-to-month basis, renewable upon the consent of both parties. In some of our states, we offer 25-year leases to purchasers of new homes that limit rent increases to 5% or CPI, whichever is greater. The community manager sells or leases homes to fill vacant sites, collects rent and finance payments, ensures compliance with community regulations, maintains common areas and community facilities and is responsible for the overall appearance of the community. The homeowner is responsible for the maintenance of the home and leased site. As a result, our capital expenditures tend to be less significant relative to multifamily rental apartments. Manufactured home communities produce predictable income streams and provide protection from inflation due to the ability to annually increase rents.
Many of our communities compete with other manufactured home communities located in the same or nearby markets that are owned and operated by other companies in our business. We generally monitor the rental rates and other terms being offered by our competitors and consider this information as a factor in determining our own rental rates. In addition to competing with other manufactured home community properties, our communities also compete with alternative forms of housing such as apartments and single-family homes.
In connection with the operation of its communities, UMH also leases manufactured homes to prospective tenants. As of December 31, 2025, UMH owned approximately 10,900 rental homes, not including rental homes in the joint venture communities, representing approximately 41% of its developed homesites. The Company engages in the rental of manufactured homes primarily in areas where the communities have existing vacancies. The rental homes produce income from both the home and the site which might otherwise be non-income producing.
Inherent in the operation of a manufactured home community is the development, redevelopment, and expansion of our communities. In addition to leasing manufactured homes to residents, through the Company’s 100% owned, fully consolidated subsidiary S&F, the Company sells and finances the sale of manufactured homes in our communities, with the financing administered through a third-party lending program with Triad Financial Services. S&F was established to enhance the value of our communities by filling sites that may otherwise be vacant. The home sales business is operated as it is with traditional homebuilders, with sales centers, model homes, an inventory of completed homes and the ability to supply custom designed homes based upon the requirements of the new homeowners. In addition, our sales centers can earn a profit by selling homes to customers for placement on their own private land.
Investment and Other Policies
The Company may invest in improved and unimproved real property and may develop unimproved real property. Such properties may be located throughout the U.S. but the Company has generally concentrated on the Northeast, Midwest and Southeast. Since 2010, we have quadrupled the number of developed homesites by purchasing 112 communities containing approximately 19,400 homesites. We are focused on acquiring communities with significant upside potential and leveraging our expertise to build long-term capital appreciation.
Our growth strategy involves purchasing well-located communities in our target markets. As part of our growth strategy, we intend to evaluate potential opportunities to expand into additional geographic markets, including other markets in the southeastern United States.
The Company also evaluates its properties for expansion opportunities. Development of the additional acreage available for expansion allows us to leverage existing communities and amenities. We believe our ability to complete expansions translates to greater value creation and cash flow through operating efficiencies. The Company has approximately 2,300 acres of additional land potentially available for future development. See PART I, Item 2 – Properties, for a list of our additional acreage.
| -4- |
The Company seeks to finance acquisitions with the most appropriate available source of capital, including purchase money mortgages or other financing, which may be first liens, wraparound mortgages or subordinated indebtedness, sales of investments, and issuance of additional equity securities. In connection with its ongoing activities, the Company may issue notes, mortgages or other senior securities. The Company intends to use both secured and unsecured lines of credit. The Company’s joint venture relationship with Nuveen Real Estate may also provide a source of financing for acquisitions of newly developed communities and development of new communities.
The Company may repurchase or reacquire its shares from time to time if, in the opinion of the Board of Directors (the “Board”), such an acquisition is advantageous to the Company. In September 2025, the Board increased the Company’s pre-existing common stock repurchase program to allow the Company to repurchase up to $100 million in the aggregate of the Company’s Common Stock. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company repurchased 320,000 shares of its Common Stock at an aggregate cost of $4.8 million, or a weighted average price of $15.06 per share. The last repurchase was made on December 3, 2025. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its Common Stock.
In addition to its manufactured home communities, the Company also owns a portfolio of investment securities, consisting of marketable equity securities issued by other REITs, which represented 1.1% of undepreciated assets (which is the Company’s total assets excluding accumulated depreciation) at December 31, 2025. These liquid real estate holdings provide additional diversification, liquidity and income. The Company, from time to time, may purchase these securities on margin when the interest and dividend yields exceed the cost of funds. However, other than purchasing marketable equity securities through automatic dividend reinvestments, the Company has not made any purchases of REIT securities during 2023, 2024 and 2025 and we do not intend to increase our investments in our REIT securities portfolio.
Regulations, Insurance and Property Maintenance and Improvement
Manufactured home communities are subject to various laws, ordinances and regulations, including regulations relating to recreational facilities such as swimming pools, clubhouses and other common areas, and regulations relating to operating water and wastewater treatment facilities at several of our communities. We believe that each community has all necessary operating permits and approvals.
Our properties are insured against risks that may cause property damage and business interruption including events such as fire, business interruption, general liability and if applicable, flood. Our insurance policies contain deductible requirements, coverage limits and particular exclusions. It is the policy of the Company to maintain adequate insurance coverage on all of our properties and, in the opinion of management, all of our properties are adequately insured. We also obtain title insurance, insuring fee title to the properties in an aggregate amount which we believe to be adequate.
State and local rent control laws in certain jurisdictions located within New York and New Jersey may dictate the structure of rent increases and limit our ability to recover increases in operating expenses and the costs of capital improvements. In 2019, the State of New York enacted the Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019, which, among other things, set maximum collectible rent increases. Rent control also currently affects three of our manufactured home communities in New Jersey and, effective March 1, 2026, statewide rent control will limit rent increases on all of our New Jersey manufactured home communities. Enactment of such laws has been considered at various times in other jurisdictions. We presently expect to continue to maintain properties, and may purchase additional properties, in markets that are either subject to rent control or in which rent-related legislation exists or may be enacted.
It is the policy of the Company to properly maintain, modernize, expand and make improvements to its properties when required. The Company anticipates that renovation expenditures with respect to its present properties during 2026 will be approximately $40 to $50 million.
Human Capital
The attraction, motivation and retention of our employees are critical factors in furthering the growth and financial success of the Company. We recognize that our ability to achieve the high standards we set for ourselves can best be accomplished by having a diverse team. Our benefits programs are designed to achieve employee satisfaction and advancement. As of February 20, 2026, the Company had approximately 540 employees, including officers. Approximately half of our management team and 44% of our total employee population are female. Over 67% of our employees are 40 years of age or older, of which 25% are over 60 years of age. During each year, the Company hires additional part-time and seasonal employees as groundskeepers and lifeguards and to conduct emergency repairs.
| -5- |
Our employees are fairly compensated as compared to employees of our competitors and are routinely recognized for outstanding performance. They are offered regular opportunities to participate in professional development programs which focus on building their skills and capabilities. We conduct regional training sessions and are committed to providing a safe and healthy workplace that is free from violence, intimidation and other unsafe or disruptive practices. We hold an annual employee meeting that includes safety training, as required under the federal Occupational, Safety and Health Act, as well as anti-harassment training. The Company also offers a robust wellness program to its employees that incorporates health benefits, including incentives for enrolling in exercise classes and for gym memberships. This encourages our employees to improve their mental and physical well-being.

Sustainability Considerations
The Company’s mission is to address the fundamental need of providing affordable housing and in doing so, create sustainable and environmentally friendly communities that have a positive societal impact. We recognize our obligation, as well as that of our industry, to reduce our impact on the environment and to conserve natural resources. We continually invest in energy-efficient technology where practicable, including water and energy conservation initiatives, and are committed to incorporating environmental and social considerations into our business practices to create value and enhance the communities where our residents live. We also recognize the importance of good corporate governance in ensuring the Company’s continued success and maintaining the confidence of our shareholders and financing sources. Our policies and practices are endorsed and supported by the Company’s executive management, including its Vice President of Sustainability and Urban Development, and are regularly reviewed by the Board and the Sustainability Subcommittee of the Nominating and Corporate Responsibility Committee of the Board.
Investments in the Company’s Common Stock and Preferred Stock may be considered qualified sustainability investments. Sustainalytics, which is a leading independent sustainability and corporate governance research ratings and analytics firm, reviewed our Sustainable Finance Framework and agreed that we not only provide a social good in the form of providing affordable housing, but also an environmental good for our conservation initiatives. The framework is also in line with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 6, 7 and 11.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor from civil liability provided for such statements by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (set forth in 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”)). Forward-looking statements provide our current expectations or forecasts of future events. Forward-looking statements include statements about the Company’s expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, performance and underlying assumptions and other statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements can be identified by their use of forward-looking words, such as “may,” “will,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “plan,” “should,” “seek” or comparable terms, or the negative use of those words, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our future performance, taking into account all information currently available to us. Forward-looking statements are not predictions of future events. These beliefs, assumptions and expectations can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to us. Some of these factors are described below and under the headings “Business”, “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. These and other risks, uncertainties and factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those included in any forward-looking statements we make. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. New risks and uncertainties arise over time, and it is not possible for us to predict those events or how they may affect us. Except as required by law, we are not obligated to, and do not intend to, update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, among others:
| ● | changes in the real estate market conditions and general economic conditions; | |
| ● | the inherent risks associated with owning real estate, including local real estate market conditions, governing laws and regulations affecting manufactured housing communities and illiquidity of real estate investments; | |
| ● | increased competition in the geographic areas in which we own and operate manufactured housing communities; | |
| ● | our ability to continue to identify, negotiate and acquire manufactured housing communities and/or vacant land which may be developed into manufactured housing communities on terms favorable to us; | |
| ● | our ability to maintain or increase rental rates and occupancy levels; | |
| ● | changes in market rates of interest; | |

Item 1A – Risk Factors
Our business faces many risks. The following risk factors may not be the only risks we face but address what we believe may be the material risks concerning our business at this time. If any of the risks discussed in this report were to occur, our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operation and our ability to service our debt and make distributions to our shareholders could be materially and adversely affected and the market price per share of our stock could decline significantly. Some statements in this report, including statements in the following risk factors, constitute forward-looking statements. Please refer to the section entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Real Estate Industry Risks
General economic conditions and the concentration of our properties in certain states may affect our ability to generate sufficient revenue to maintain our profitability. The market and economic conditions in our current markets may significantly affect manufactured home occupancy or rental rates. Occupancy and rental rates, in turn, may significantly affect our revenues, and if our communities do not generate revenues sufficient to meet our operating expenses, including debt service and capital expenditures, our cash flow and ability to pay or refinance our debt obligations could be adversely affected. As a result of the geographic concentration of our properties in the Eastern United States, we are exposed to the risks of downturns in the local economy or other local real estate market conditions which could adversely affect occupancy rates, rental rates, and property values in these markets.
Other factors that may affect general economic conditions or local real estate conditions include:
| ● | the national and local economic climate, including that of the energy-market dependent Marcellus and Utica Shale regions, may be adversely impacted by, among other factors, potential restrictions on drilling, plant closings, and industry slowdowns; | |
| ● | local real estate market conditions such as the oversupply of manufactured homesites or a reduction in demand for manufactured homesites in an area; | |
| ● | the number of repossessed homes in a particular market; | |
| ● | the lack of an established dealer network; | |
| ● | the rental market which may limit the extent to which rents may be increased to meet increased expenses without decreasing occupancy rates; | |
| ● | the safety, convenience and attractiveness of our properties and the neighborhoods where they are located; | |
| ● | zoning or other regulatory restrictions; | |
| ● | competition from other available manufactured home communities and alternative forms of housing (such as apartment buildings and single-family homes); | |
| ● | our ability to provide adequate management, maintenance and insurance; | |
| ● | a pandemic or other health crisis or other highly infectious or contagious diseases; | |
| ● | increased operating costs, including insurance premiums, real estate taxes and utilities; and | |
| ● | the enactment of rent control laws or laws taxing the owners of manufactured homes. |
| -10- |
Our income would also be adversely affected if tenants were unable to pay rent or if sites were unable to be rented on favorable terms. If we were unable to promptly relet or renew the leases for a significant number of sites, or if the rental rates upon such renewal or reletting were significantly lower than expected rates, then our business and results of operations could be adversely affected. In addition, certain expenditures associated with each property (such as real estate taxes and maintenance costs) generally are not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in income from the property.
We may be unable to compete with our larger competitors for acquisitions, which may increase prices for communities. The real estate business is highly competitive. We compete for manufactured home community investments with numerous other real estate entities, such as individuals, corporations, REITs and other enterprises engaged in real estate activities. In many cases, the competing companies may be larger and better financed than we are, making it difficult for us to secure new manufactured home community investments. Competition among private and institutional purchasers of manufactured home community investments has resulted in increases in the purchase prices paid for manufactured home communities and consequently higher fixed costs. To the extent we are unable to effectively compete in the marketplace, our business may be adversely affected.
We may not be able to integrate or finance our acquisitions and our acquisitions may not perform as expected. We acquire and intend to continue to acquire manufactured home communities on a select basis. Our acquisition activities and their success are subject to risks, including the following:
| ● | if we enter into an acquisition agreement for a property, it is usually subject to customary conditions to closing, including completion of due diligence investigations to our satisfaction, which may not be satisfied; | |
| ● | we may be unable to finance acquisitions on favorable terms; | |
| ● | acquired properties may fail to perform as expected; | |
| ● | the actual costs of repositioning or redeveloping acquired properties may be higher than our estimates; | |
| ● | acquired properties may be located in new markets where we face risks associated with a lack of market knowledge or understanding of the local economy, lack of business relationships in the area and unfamiliarity with local governmental and permitting procedures; and | |
| ● | we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into our existing operations. |
If any of the above were to occur, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.
In addition, we may acquire properties subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, with respect to unknown liabilities. As a result, if a liability were to be asserted against us based upon ownership of those properties, we might have to pay substantial sums to settle it, which could adversely affect our cash flow.
We may be unable to finance or accurately estimate or anticipate costs and timing associated with expansion activities. We periodically consider the expansion of existing communities and development of new communities. Our expansion and development activities are subject to risks such as:
| ● | we may not be able to obtain financing with favorable terms for community development which may make us unable to proceed with the development; | |
| ● | we may be unable to obtain, or may face delays in obtaining, necessary zoning, building and other governmental permits and authorizations, which could result in increased costs and delays, and even require us to abandon development of a community entirely if we are unable to obtain such permits or authorizations; |
| -11- |
| ● | we may abandon development opportunities that we have already begun to explore and as a result we may not recover expenses already incurred in connection with exploring such development opportunities; | |
| ● | we may be unable to complete construction and lease-up of a community on schedule resulting in increased debt service expense and construction costs; | |
| ● | we may incur construction and development costs for a community which exceed our original estimates due to increased materials, labor or other costs, which could make completion of the community uneconomical and we may not be able to increase rents to compensate for the increase in development costs which may impact our profitability; | |
| ● | we may be unable to secure long-term financing on completion of development resulting in increased debt service and lower profitability; and | |
| ● | occupancy rates and rents at a newly developed community may fluctuate depending on several factors, including market and economic conditions, which may result in the community not being profitable. |
If any of the above were to occur, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We may be unable to sell properties when appropriate because real estate investments are illiquid. Real estate investments generally cannot be sold quickly and, therefore, will tend to limit our ability to vary our property portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions. In addition, the Code limits our ability to sell our properties. The inability to respond promptly to changes in the performance of our property portfolio could adversely affect our financial condition and ability to service our debt and make distributions to our shareholders.
Our ability to sell manufactured homes may be affected by various factors, which may in turn adversely affect our profitability. S&F operates in the manufactured home market offering homes for sale to tenants and prospective tenants of our communities. The market for the sale of manufactured homes may be adversely affected by the following factors:
| ● | downturns in economic conditions which adversely impact the housing market; | |
| ● | an oversupply of, or a reduced demand for, manufactured homes; | |
| ● | the ability of manufactured home manufacturers to adapt to change in the economic climate and the availability of units from these manufacturers; | |
| ● | the difficulty facing potential purchasers in obtaining affordable financing as a result of heightened lending criteria; and | |
| ● | an increase or decrease in the rate of manufactured home repossessions which provide aggressively priced competition to new manufactured home sales. |
Any of the above listed factors could adversely impact our rate of manufactured home sales, which would result in a decrease in profitability.
Licensing laws and compliance could affect our profitability. Our subsidiary S&F is subject to the Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act of 2008 (“SAFE Act”), which requires that we obtain appropriate licenses pursuant to the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System & Registry in each state where S&F conducts business. There are extensive federal and state requirements mandated by the SAFE Act and other laws pertaining to financing, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and there can be no assurance that we will obtain or renew our SAFE Act licenses, which could result in fees and penalties and have an adverse impact on our ability to continue with our home financing activities.
The termination of our third-party lending program could adversely affect us. S&F currently relies exclusively on its third-party lending program for all loan origination and servicing activity. As a result, the termination of our third-party lending program could impact our ability to continue with our home financing activities. In the event the third-party lending program is terminated, either by the third party or by us, we would seek to develop an internal lending program so that we could continue to offer home financing to prospective residents of our communities. Such an internal lending program could expose us to additional risks, including additional risks associated with non-compliance with requirements imposed by federal and state consumer finance laws and regulations.
Many of our costs may be adversely impacted by continued heightened inflation. A sustained or further increase in inflation could have an adverse impact on our general and administrative and operating expenses, including the costs of personnel, professional fees, insurance, utilities, security, and the purchase of manufactured homes, and otherwise adversely affect our business and results of operations. While we expect to recover some cost increases through increases in our rental rates, there can be no assurance that higher operating expenses resulting from inflationary pressures will be fully offset by higher rental rates. As a result, to the extent the inflation rate exceeds the annual rent increases we are able to institute, we may not adequately mitigate the impact of inflation, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
| -12- |
Additionally, inflationary pricing may have a negative effect on the construction costs necessary to complete development projects, including, but not limited to, costs of construction equipment and materials, labor and services from third-party contractors and suppliers. Higher construction costs could adversely impact our development projects and thereby our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Costs associated with taxes and regulatory compliance may reduce our revenue. We are subject to significant regulation that inhibits our activities and may increase our costs. Local zoning and use laws, environmental statutes and other governmental requirements may restrict expansion, rehabilitation and reconstruction activities. These regulations may prevent us from taking advantage of economic opportunities. Legislation such as the Americans with Disabilities Act may require us to modify our properties at a substantial cost and noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. Future legislation may impose additional requirements. We cannot predict what requirements may be enacted or amended or what costs we will incur to comply with such requirements. Costs resulting from changes in real estate laws, income taxes, service or other taxes may adversely affect our funds from operations and our ability to pay or refinance our debt. Similarly, changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing on properties or increasing the restrictions on discharges or other conditions may result in significant unanticipated expenditures, which would adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Laws and regulations also govern the provision of utility services. Such laws regulate, for example, how and to what extent owners or operators of property can charge renters for provision of utilities. Such laws can also regulate the operations and performance of utility systems and may impose fines and penalties on real property owners or operators who fail to comply with these requirements. The laws and regulations may also require capital investment to maintain compliance.
Rent control legislation may harm our ability to increase rents. State and local rent control laws in certain jurisdictions may limit our ability to increase rents and to recover increases in operating expenses and the costs of capital improvements. In 2019, the State of New York enacted the Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019, which, among other things, set maximum collectible rent increases. Rent control also currently affects three of our manufactured home communities in New Jersey and, effective March 1, 2026, statewide rent control will limit rent increases on all of our New Jersey manufactured home communities. Enactment of such laws has been considered at various times in other jurisdictions. We presently expect to continue to maintain properties, and may purchase additional properties, in markets that are either subject to rent control or in which rent-related legislation exists or may be enacted.
Environmental liabilities could affect our profitability. Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an owner or operator of real estate is liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous substances at, on, under or in such property, as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. Such laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous substances. A conveyance of the property, therefore, does not relieve the owner or operator from liability. As a current or former owner and operator of real estate, we may be required by law to investigate and clean up hazardous substances released at or from the properties we currently own or operate or have in the past owned or operated. We may also be liable to the government or to third parties for property damage, investigation costs and cleanup costs. In addition, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated site in favor of the government for damages and costs the government incurs in connection with the contamination. Contamination may adversely affect our ability to sell or lease real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous substances also may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of such substances at a disposal or treatment facility owned or operated by another person. In addition, certain environmental laws impose liability for the management and disposal of asbestos-containing materials and for the release of such materials into the air. These laws may provide for third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury associated with asbestos-containing materials. In connection with the ownership, operation, management, and development of real properties, we may be considered an owner or operator of such properties and, therefore, are potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, and also may be liable for governmental fines and injuries to persons and property. When we arrange for the treatment or disposal of hazardous substances at landfills or other facilities owned by other persons, we may be liable for the removal or remediation costs at such facilities. We are not aware of any environmental liabilities relating to our investment properties which would have a material adverse effect on our business, assets, or results of operations. However, we cannot assure you that environmental liabilities will not arise in the future and that such liabilities will not have a material adverse effect on our business, assets or results of operations.

Of the 145 manufactured home communities we operated as of December 31, 2025, 47 have their own wastewater treatment facility or water distribution system, or both. At these locations, we are subject to compliance with monthly, quarterly and yearly testing for contaminants as outlined by the individual state’s environmental protection agencies.
In connection with the management of its properties or upon acquisition or financing of a property, the Company authorizes the preparation of Phase I or similar environmental reports (which involves general inspections without soil sampling or ground water analysis) completed by independent environmental consultants. Based upon such environmental reports and the Company’s ongoing review of its properties, as of the date of this Annual Report, the Company is not aware of any environmental condition with respect to any of its properties which it believes would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and/or results of operations. However, these reports cannot reflect conditions arising after the studies were completed, and no assurances can be given that existing environmental studies reveal all environmental liabilities, that any prior owner or operator of a property or neighboring owner or operator did not create any material environmental condition not known to us, or that a material environmental condition does not otherwise exist as to any one or more properties.
Some of our properties are subject to potential natural or other disasters. Certain of our manufactured home communities are located in areas that may be subject to natural disasters, including our manufactured home communities in flood plains, in areas that may be adversely affected by tornados and in coastal regions that may be adversely affected by increases in sea levels or in the frequency or severity of hurricanes, tropical storms or other severe weather conditions. The occurrence of natural disasters may delay redevelopment or development projects, increase investment costs to repair or replace damaged properties, increase future property insurance costs and negatively impact the tenant demand for lease space. To the extent insurance is unavailable to us or is unavailable on acceptable terms, or our insurance is not adequate to cover losses from these events, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Climate change may adversely affect our business. To the extent that significant changes in the climate occur in areas where our properties are located, we may experience extreme weather and changes in precipitation and temperature, all of which may result in physical damage to or a decrease in demand for properties located in these areas or affected by these conditions. Should the impact of climate change be material in nature, including significant property damage to or destruction of our properties, or occur for lengthy periods of time, our financial condition or results of operations may be adversely affected. In addition, changes in federal, state and local legislation and regulations based on concerns about climate change could result in increased capital expenditures on our properties (for example, to improve their energy efficiency and/or resistance to inclement weather) without a corresponding increase in revenue, resulting in adverse impacts to our net income.
Actions by our competitors may decrease or prevent increases in the occupancy and rental rates of our properties which could adversely affect our business. We compete with other owners and operators of manufactured home community properties, some of which own properties similar to ours in the same submarkets in which our properties are located. The number of competitive manufactured home community properties in a particular area could have a material adverse effect on our ability to attract tenants, lease sites and maintain or increase rents charged at our properties or at any newly acquired properties. In addition, other forms of multifamily residential properties, such as private and federally funded or assisted multifamily housing projects and single-family housing, provide housing alternatives to potential tenants of manufactured home communities. If our competitors offer housing at rental rates below current market rates or below the rental rates we currently charge our tenants, we may lose potential tenants, and we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates below those we currently charge in order to retain tenants when our tenants’ leases expire.
| -14- |
Losses in excess of our insurance coverage or uninsured losses could adversely affect our cash flow. We generally maintain insurance policies related to our business, including casualty, general liability and other policies covering business operations, employees and assets. However, we may be required to bear all losses that are not adequately covered by insurance. In addition, there are certain losses that are not generally insured because it is not economically feasible to insure against them, including, but not limited to, losses due to riots, acts of war or other catastrophic events. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occurs with respect to one or more of our properties, then we could lose the capital we invested in the properties, as well as the anticipated profits and cash flow from the properties and, in the case of debt which is with recourse to us, we would remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other financial obligations related to the properties. Although we believe that our insurance programs are adequate, no assurance can be given that we will not incur losses in excess of our insurance coverage, or that we will be able to obtain insurance in the future at acceptable levels and reasonable cost.
Our investments are concentrated in the manufactured housing/residential sector and our business would be adversely affected by an economic downturn in that sector. Our investments in real estate assets are primarily concentrated in the manufactured housing/residential sector. This concentration may expose us to the risk of economic downturns in this sector to a greater extent than if our business activities included a more significant portion of other sectors of the real estate industry.
Our joint venture relationship with Nuveen Real Estate may subject us to risks, including limitations on our decision-making authority and the risk of disputes, which could adversely affect us. We have entered into joint venture arrangements with Nuveen Real Estate under which we operate three manufactured home communities that are recently developed. It is possible that our joint venture partner, Nuveen Real Estate, may have business interests, goals, priorities or concerns that are different from our business interests, goals, priorities or concerns. Although we manage the joint venture entities and their properties, we do not have full control over decisions and require approval of Nuveen Real Estate for major decisions. As a result, we may face the risk of disputes, including potential deadlocks in making decisions. In addition, the joint venture agreements provide that until the capital contributions to the joint venture entities are fully funded or the joint ventures are terminated, and unless Nuveen declines an acquisition proposed by us, the joint ventures will be the exclusive vehicle for us to acquire any manufactured home communities that meet the joint venture’s investment guidelines. Nuveen Real Estate will have the right to remove and replace us as managing member of the joint venture entities and manager of the joint venture’s properties if we breach certain obligations or certain events occur, in which event Nuveen Real Estate may elect to buy out our interest in the applicable joint venture entity at 98% of its value. There are also significant restrictions on our ability to exit the joint ventures. Any of these provisions could adversely affect us.
Financing Risks
We face risks generally associated with our debt. We finance a portion of our investments in properties and marketable securities through debt. We are subject to the risks normally associated with debt financing, including the risk that our cash flow will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest. In addition, debt creates other risks, including:
| ● | rising interest rates on our variable rate debt; | |
| ● | inability to repay or refinance existing debt as it matures, which may result in forced disposition of assets on disadvantageous terms; | |
| ● | refinancing terms less favorable than the terms of existing debt; and | |
| ● | failure to meet required payments of principal and/or interest. |
To the extent we cannot refinance debt on favorable terms or at all, we may be forced to dispose of properties on disadvantageous terms or pay higher interest rates, either of which would have an adverse impact on our financial performance and ability to service debt and make distributions.
We mortgage our properties, which subjects us to the risk of foreclosure in the event of non-payment. We mortgage many of our properties to secure payment of indebtedness. If we are unable to meet mortgage payments, then the property could be foreclosed upon or transferred to the mortgagee with a consequent loss of income and asset value. A foreclosure of one or more of our properties could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, ability to service debt and make distributions and the market price of our Series D Preferred Stock and Common Stock and any other securities we issue.
| -15- |
We face risks associated with our dependence on external sources of capital. In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required each year to distribute to our shareholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, and we are subject to tax on our income to the extent it is not distributed. Because of this distribution requirement, we may not be able to fund all future capital needs from cash retained from operations. As a result, to fund capital needs, we rely on third-party sources of capital, which we may not be able to obtain on favorable terms, if at all. Our access to third-party sources of capital depends upon a number of factors, including (i) general market conditions; (ii) the market’s perception of our growth potential; (iii) our current and potential future earnings and cash distributions; and (iv) the market price of our Series D Preferred Stock and Common Stock and any other securities we issue. Additional debt financing may substantially increase our debt-to-total capitalization ratio. Additional equity issuance may dilute the holdings of our current shareholders.
We may become more highly leveraged, resulting in increased risk of default on our obligations and an increase in debt service requirements which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and our ability to pay distributions. We have incurred, and may continue to incur, indebtedness in furtherance of our activities. Our governing documents do not limit the amount of indebtedness we may incur. Accordingly, our Board may vote to incur additional debt and would do so, for example, if it were necessary to maintain our status as a REIT. We could therefore become more highly leveraged, resulting in an increased risk of default on our obligations and in an increase in debt service requirements, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and our ability to pay distributions to shareholders.
We are subject to risks associated with the current interest rate environment, and changes in interest rates may affect our cost of capital and, consequently, our financial results. Changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on markets, may result in heightened market volatility, may slow economic growth and/or cause a recession, and may affect our ability to complete potential acquisitions. Because a portion of our debt bears interest at variable rates, in periods of rising interest rates, our cost of funds would increase, which could adversely affect our cash flows, financial condition and results of operations, ability to make distributions to shareholders, and the cost of refinancing and reduce our access to the debt or equity capital markets. Increased interest rates could also adversely affect the value of our properties to the extent that it decreases the amount buyers may be willing to pay for our properties and could result in the decline of the market price of our Series D Preferred Stock and Common Stock and any other securities we issue, which may adversely impact our ability and willingness to raise equity capital on favorable terms, including through our At-the-Market Sale Programs (as defined below). Additionally, if we choose to hedge any interest rate risk, we cannot assure that any such hedge will be effective or that our hedging counterparty will meet its obligations to us. As a result, increased interest rates, including any future increases in interest rates, could adversely affect us.
Covenants in our credit agreements and other debt instruments could limit our flexibility and adversely affect our financial condition. The terms of our various credit agreements and other indebtedness require us to comply with a number of customary financial and other covenants, such as maintaining debt service coverage and leverage ratios and maintaining insurance coverage. These covenants may limit our flexibility in our operations, and breaches of these covenants could result in defaults under the instruments governing the applicable indebtedness even if we had satisfied our payment obligations. If we were to default under our credit agreements, our financial condition would be adversely affected.
A change in the U.S. government policy with regard to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could impact our financial condition. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are major sources of financing for the manufactured housing real estate sector. We depend frequently on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to finance growth by purchasing or guaranteeing manufactured housing community loans. A decision by the government to privatize or eliminate Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, or reduce their acquisitions or guarantees of our mortgage loans, may adversely affect interest rates, capital availability and our ability to refinance our existing mortgage obligations as they come due and obtain additional long-term financing for the acquisition of additional communities on favorable terms or at all.
We face risks associated with the financing of home sales to customers in our manufactured home communities. To produce new rental revenue and to upgrade our communities, we sell homes to customers in our communities at competitive prices and finance these home sales through S&F using our third-party lending program with Triad Financial Services. We allow banks and outside finance companies the first opportunity to finance these sales. We are subject to the following risks in financing these homes:
| ● | the borrowers may default on these loans and not be able to make debt service payments or pay principal when due; |
| -16- |
| ● | the default rates may be higher than we anticipate; | |
| ● | demand for consumer financing may not be as great as we anticipate or may decline; | |
| ● | the value of property securing the installment notes receivable may be less than the amounts owed; and | |
| ● | interest rates payable on the installment notes receivable may be lower than our cost of funds. |
Additionally, there are many regulations pertaining to our home sales and financing activities. There are significant consumer protection laws and the regulatory framework may change in a manner which may adversely affect our operating results. The regulatory environment and associated consumer finance laws create a risk of greater liability from our home sales and financing activities and could subject us to additional litigation. We are also dependent on licenses granted by state and other regulatory authorities, which may be withdrawn or which may not be renewed and which could have an adverse impact on our ability to continue with our home sales and financing activities.
In the event our third-party lending program is terminated, either by Triad Financial Servies or by us, we would seek to develop an internal lending program so that we could continue to offer home financing to prospective residents of our communities. Such an internal lending program would expose us to additional risks, including additional risks associated with non-compliance with requirements imposed by federal and state consumer finance laws and regulations.
Risks Related to our Status as a REIT
If our leases are not respected as true leases for federal income tax purposes, we would fail to qualify as a REIT. To qualify as a REIT, we must, among other things, satisfy two gross income tests, under which specified percentages of our gross income must be certain types of passive income, such as rent. For the rent paid pursuant to our leases to qualify for purposes of the gross income tests, the leases must be respected as true leases for federal income tax purposes and not be treated as service contracts, joint venture or some other type of arrangement. We believe that our leases will be respected as true leases for federal income tax purposes. However, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) will agree with this view. If the leases are not respected as true leases for federal income tax purposes, we would not be able to satisfy either of the two gross income tests applicable to REITs, and we could lose our REIT status.
Failure to make required distributions would subject us to additional tax. In order to qualify as a REIT, we must, among other requirements, distribute, each year, to our shareholders at least 90% of our taxable income, excluding net capital gains. To the extent that we satisfy the 90% distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our taxable income, we will be subject to federal corporate income tax on our undistributed income. In addition, we will incur a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which our distributions (or deemed distributions) in any year are less than the sum of:
| ● | 85% of our ordinary income for that year; | |
| ● | 95% of our capital gain net earnings for that year; and | |
| ● | 100% of our undistributed taxable income from prior years. |
To the extent we pay out in excess of 100% of our taxable income for any tax year, we may be able to carry forward such excess to subsequent years to reduce our required distributions for purposes of the 4% nondeductible excise tax in such subsequent years. We intend to pay out our income to our shareholders in a manner intended to satisfy the 90% distribution requirement. Differences in timing between the recognition of income and the related cash receipts or the effect of required debt amortization payments could require us to borrow money or sell assets to pay out enough of our taxable income to satisfy the 90% distribution requirement and to avoid corporate income tax.
We may not have sufficient cash available from operations to pay distributions to our shareholders, and, therefore, distributions may be made from borrowings. The actual amount and timing of distributions to our shareholders will be determined by our Board in its discretion and typically will depend on the amount of cash available for distribution, which will depend on items such as current and projected cash requirements, limitations on distributions imposed by law on our financing arrangements and tax considerations. As a result, we may not have sufficient cash available from operations to pay distributions as required to maintain our status as a REIT. Therefore, we may need to borrow funds to make sufficient cash distributions in order to maintain our status as a REIT, which may cause us to incur additional interest expense as a result of an increase in borrowed funds for the purpose of paying distributions.

We may be required to pay a penalty tax upon the sale of property that is determined to be held for sale to customers. The federal income tax provisions applicable to REITs provide that any gain realized by a REIT on the sale of property held as inventory or other property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business is treated as income from a “prohibited transaction” that is subject to a 100% penalty tax. Under current law, unless a sale of real property qualifies for a safe harbor, the question of whether the sale of real estate or other property constitutes the sale of property held primarily for sale to customers is generally a question of the facts and circumstances regarding a particular transaction. We intend that we and our subsidiaries will hold the interests in the real estate for investment with a view to long-term appreciation, engage in the business of acquiring and owning real estate, and make occasional sales as are consistent with our investment objectives. We do not intend to engage in prohibited transactions. We cannot assure you, however, that we will only make sales that satisfy the requirements of the safe harbors or that the IRS will not successfully assert that one or more of such sales are prohibited transactions.
We may be adversely affected if we fail to qualify as a REIT. If we fail to qualify as a REIT, we will not be allowed to deduct distributions to shareholders in computing our taxable income and will be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates and possibly increased state and local taxes. In addition, we might be barred from qualification as a REIT for the four years following the year of disqualification. The additional tax incurred at regular corporate rates would reduce significantly the cash flow available for distribution to shareholders and for debt service. Furthermore, we would no longer be required to make any distributions to our shareholders as a condition to REIT qualification. Any distributions to shareholders would be taxable as ordinary income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, although such dividend distributions to non-corporate shareholders would be subject to a maximum federal income tax rate of 20% (and potentially a federal tax on net investment income of 3.8%), provided applicable requirements of the Code are satisfied. Furthermore, corporate shareholders may be eligible for the dividends received deduction on the distributions, subject to limitations under the Code. Additionally, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, non-corporate shareholders would no longer be able to deduct up to 20% of certain qualified REIT dividends (other than capital gain dividends and dividends treated as qualified dividend income), that is available under current law. While initially scheduled to expire in 2025, recent legislation has made this deduction permanent.
To qualify as a REIT, we must comply with certain highly technical and complex requirements. We cannot be certain we have complied, and will always be able to comply, with the requirements to qualify as a REIT because there are few judicial and administrative interpretations of these provisions. In addition, facts and circumstances that may be beyond our control may affect our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT. We cannot assure you that new legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not change the tax laws significantly with respect to our qualification as a REIT or with respect to the federal income tax consequences of qualification. We believe that we have qualified as a REIT since our inception and intend to continue to qualify as a REIT. However, we cannot assure you that we are so qualified or will remain so qualified.
There is a risk of changes in the tax law applicable to REITs. Because the IRS, the U.S. Treasury Department and Congress frequently review federal income tax legislation, we cannot predict whether, when or to what extent new federal tax laws, regulations, interpretations or rulings will be adopted. Numerous changes to the U.S. federal income tax laws are proposed on a regular basis. Any of such legislative action may prospectively or retroactively modify our tax treatment and, therefore, may adversely affect taxation of us and/or our investors. Additionally, the REIT rules are continually under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the IRS and the U.S. Treasury Department, which may result in revisions to regulations and interpretations in addition to statutory changes. Furthermore, legislative proposals to increase corporate tax rates or otherwise modify the U.S. federal income tax system are periodically introduced. The timing, likelihood and content of any such legislation are uncertain, and any enacted changes could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Importantly, legislation has been proposed in several states specifically taxing REITs. If such legislation were to be enacted, our income from such states would be adversely impacted.
We may be unable to comply with the strict income distribution requirements applicable to REITs. To maintain qualification as a REIT under the Code, a REIT must annually distribute to its shareholders at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, excluding the dividends paid deduction and net capital gains. This requirement limits our ability to accumulate capital. We may not have sufficient cash or other liquid assets to meet the distribution requirements. Difficulties in meeting the distribution requirements might arise due to competing demands for our funds or to timing differences between tax reporting and cash receipts and disbursements, because income may have to be reported before cash is received, because expenses may have to be paid before a deduction is allowed, because deductions may be disallowed or limited or because the IRS may make a determination that adjusts reported income. In those situations, we might be required to borrow funds or sell properties on adverse terms in order to meet the distribution requirements and interest and penalties could apply which could adversely affect our financial condition. If we fail to make a required distribution, we could cease to be taxed as a REIT.

Our taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) is subject to special rules that may result in increased taxes. As a REIT, we must pay a 100% penalty tax on certain payments that we receive or on certain deductions taken if the economic arrangements between us and our TRS are not comparable to similar arrangements between unrelated parties. The IRS may successfully assert that the economic arrangements of any of our inter-company transactions are not comparable to similar arrangements between unrelated parties, and may assess the above 100% penalty tax or make other reallocations of income or loss. This would result in unexpected tax liability which would adversely affect our cash flows.
Notwithstanding our status as a REIT, we are subject to various federal, state and local taxes on our income and property. For example, we will be taxed at regular corporate rates on any undistributed taxable income, including undistributed net capital gains; provided, however, that properly designated undistributed capital gains will effectively avoid taxation at the shareholder level. We may be subject to other Federal income taxes and may also have to pay some state income or franchise taxes because not all states treat REITs in the same manner as they are treated for federal income tax purposes.
General Risk Factors
Global and regional economic conditions could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and growth. Adverse macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, slower growth or recession, tighter credit, higher interest rates and high unemployment could materially adversely impact our business, results of operations, financial condition and growth. In addition, uncertainty about, or a decline in, global or regional economic conditions could have a significant impact on our suppliers. Further, our business and properties could be materially adversely affected by changes in national and international political, environmental and socioeconomic circumstances and/or conflicts (including wars, terrorist acts or security operations, such as the ongoing disruption in the Middle East), the possibility of such conflicts widening, and their impact on macroeconomic conditions. Coupled with changes in Federal Reserve policies on interest rates and other economic disruptions, such circumstances may exacerbate inflation and adversely affect economic and market conditions, the level and volatility of real estate and securities prices and the liquidity of our investments. As military conflicts and related economic sanctions continue to evolve, it has become increasingly difficult to predict the impact of these events.
We may not be able to obtain adequate cash to fund our business. Our business requires access to adequate cash to finance our operations, distributions, capital expenditures, debt service obligations, development and redevelopment costs and property acquisition costs, if any. We expect to generate the cash to be used for these purposes primarily with operating cash flow, borrowings under secured and unsecured loans, proceeds from sales of strategically identified assets and, when market conditions permit, through the issuance of debt and equity securities from time to time. We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to fund our business, particularly if we are unable to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-lease space as leases expire according to our expectations.
We are dependent on key personnel. Our executive and other senior officers have a significant role in our success. Our ability to retain our management group or to attract suitable replacements should any members of the management group leave is dependent on the competitive nature of the employment market. The loss of services from key members of the management group or a limitation in their availability could adversely affect our financial condition and cash flow. Further, such a loss could be negatively perceived in the capital markets.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report financial results, which could result in a loss of investor confidence and adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. We are required by securities laws and provisions of our debt instruments to establish and maintain internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Disclosure controls and procedures are processes designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed is communicated to management and reported in a timely manner. We cannot be certain that we will be successful in continuing to maintain adequate control over our financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. Deficiencies, including any material weakness, in our internal control over financial reporting that may occur could result in misstatements or restatements of our financial statements or a decline in the price of our securities. In addition, as our business continues to grow, and as we continue to make significant acquisitions, our internal controls will become more complex and may require significantly more resources to ensure that our disclosure controls and procedures remain effective. Acquisitions can pose challenges in implementing the required processes, procedures and controls in the operations of the companies that we acquire. Any companies that are acquired by us may not have disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting that are as thorough or effective as those required by the securities laws that currently apply to us. Moreover, the existence of any material weakness or significant deficiency in our internal controls and procedures would require management to devote significant time and incur significant expense to remediate any such material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and management may not be able to remediate any such material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in a timely manner. If we do not maintain an effective system of internal controls and cannot provide reliable financial reports, our reputation, operating results and access to capital could be materially adversely affected, which could lead to a loss of confidence by investors in our reported financial information, which in turn could adversely affect the trading price of our Common Stock and Preferred Stock.

Some of our directors and officers may have conflicts of interest with respect to certain related party transactions and other business interests. Mr. Eugene W. Landy, the Founder and Chairman of the Board of the Company, previously owned a 24% interest in the entity that is the landlord of the property in Freehold, New Jersey where the Company’s executive offices are located. Effective January 2023, Mr. Eugene Landy transferred this ownership to his son, Mr. Samuel A. Landy, the President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, and other family members. Effective October 1, 2019, the Company entered into a new lease for these executive offices in Freehold, New Jersey which combined the existing corporate office space with additional adjacent office space. This new lease extended the previous lease through April 30, 2027 and required monthly lease payments of $23,098 through April 30, 2022 and $23,302 from May 1, 2022 through April 30, 2027. The Company is also responsible for its proportionate share of real estate taxes and common area maintenance. Mr. Samuel A. Landy may have a conflict of interest with respect to his obligations as our officer and/or director and his ownership interest in the landlord of the property.
Further, Mr. Eugene W. Landy owns a 9.6% interest, Mr. Samuel A. Landy owns a 4.8% interest, Mr. Daniel Landy, who is also an officer of the Company and is Samuel A. Landy’s son, owns a 0.96% interest, and the Samuel Landy Family Limited Partnership (of which Daniel Landy is the sole general partner) owns a 0.96% interest in the OZ Fund, that was formed by the Company in 2022. In addition, one of the Company’s independent directors owns a 0.96% interest in the OZ Fund.
We may amend our business policies without shareholder approval. Our Board determines our growth, investment, financing, capitalization, borrowing, REIT status, operations and distributions policies. Although our Board has no present intention to change or reverse any of these policies, they may be amended or revised without notice to shareholders. Accordingly, shareholders may not have control over changes in our policies. We cannot assure you that changes in our policies will fully serve the interests of all shareholders.
Third-party expectations relating to sustainability initiatives may impose additional costs and expose us to new risks. There is an increasing focus from certain investors concerning corporate responsibility, specifically related to sustainability initiatives. In addition, there is an increased focus on such matters by various regulatory authorities, including the SEC, and the activities and expense required to comply with new regulations or standards may be significant. Some investors may use these factors to guide their investment strategies and, in some cases, may choose not to invest in us if they believe our policies relating to corporate responsibility are inadequate. Third-party providers of corporate responsibility ratings and reports on companies have increased in number, resulting in varied and in some cases inconsistent standards. In addition, the criteria by which companies’ corporate responsibility practices are assessed and the regulations applicable thereto are evolving, which could result in greater expectations of us and cause us to undertake costly initiatives or activities to satisfy such new criteria or regulations. Further, if we elect not to or are unable to satisfy such new criteria or do not meet the criteria of a specific third-party provider, some investors may conclude that our policies with respect to corporate responsibility are inadequate. We may face reputational damage in the event that our corporate responsibility procedures or standards do not meet the standards set by various constituencies. Furthermore, if our competitors’ corporate responsibility performance is perceived to be superior to ours, potential or current investors may elect to invest in our competitors instead of us. In addition, we could fail, or be perceived to fail, in our achievement of our initiatives and goals with respect to environmental, social and governance matters, or we could be criticized for the scope of such initiatives or goals. If we fail to satisfy the expectations of investors, our initiatives are not executed as planned, or we do not satisfy our goals, our reputation and financial results could be adversely affected.

The market value of our Series D Preferred Stock and Common Stock could decrease based on our performance and market perception and conditions. The market value of our Series D Preferred Stock and Common Stock may be based primarily upon the market’s perception of our growth potential and current and future cash dividends, and may be secondarily based upon the real estate market value of our underlying assets. The market price of our Series D Preferred Stock and Common Stock is influenced by their respective distributions relative to market interest rates. Rising interest rates may lead potential buyers of our stock to expect a higher distribution rate, which could adversely affect the market price of our stock. In addition, rising interest rates would result in increased expense, thereby adversely affecting cash flow and our ability to service our indebtedness and pay distributions.
The market price and trading volume of our Common Stock may fluctuate significantly. The per-share trading price of our Common Stock may fluctuate. In addition, the trading volume in our Common Stock may fluctuate and cause significant price variations to occur. If the per-share trading price of our Common Stock declines significantly, investors in our Common Stock may be unable to resell their shares at or above their purchase price. We cannot provide any assurance that the per-share trading price of our Common Stock will not fluctuate or decline significantly in the future.
Some of the factors that could negatively affect our share price or result in fluctuations in the price or trading volume of our stock include:
| ● | actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly operating results or dividends; | |
| ● | changes in our funds from operations or earnings estimates; | |
| ● | publication of research reports about us or the real estate industry; | |
| ● | prevailing interest rates; | |
| ● | the rate of inflation; | |
| ● | the market for similar securities; | |
| ● | changes in market valuations of similar companies; | |
| ● | adverse market reaction to any additional debt we incur in the future; | |
| ● | additions or departures of key management personnel; | |
| ● | actions by institutional shareholders; | |
| ● | speculation in the press or investment community; | |
| ● | the extent of investor interest in our securities; | |
| ● | the general reputation of REITs and the attractiveness of our equity securities in comparison to other equity securities, including securities issued by other real estate-based companies; | |
| ● | our underlying asset value; | |
| ● | investor confidence in the stock and bond markets, generally; | |
| ● | changes in tax laws; | |
| ● | future equity issuances; | |
| ● | failure to meet earnings estimates; | |
| ● | failure to maintain our REIT status; | |
| ● | changes in valuation of our REIT securities portfolio; | |
| ● | general economic and financial market conditions; | |
| ● | war, terrorist acts and epidemic disease, including pandemics or other highly infectious or contagious diseases; | |
| ● | our issuance of debt or preferred equity securities; | |
| ● | our financial condition, results of operations and prospects; and | |
| ● | the realization of any of the other risk factors presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. |
In the past, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies following periods of volatility in the price of their Common Stock. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention and resources, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and per-share trading price of our Common Stock.
The market price and trading volume of our Series D Preferred Stock may fluctuate significantly. Although our Series D Preferred Stock is listed and traded on the NYSE, the trading markets for the Series D Preferred Stock is limited. Since the Series D Preferred Stock has no maturity date, investors seeking liquidity may elect to sell their shares of Series D Preferred Stock in the secondary market. If an active trading market does not exist, the market price and liquidity of the Series D Preferred Stock may be adversely affected by such sales. Even if an active public market exists, we cannot guarantee that the market price for the Series D Preferred Stock will equal or exceed the price that investors in the Series D Preferred Stock paid for their shares.
| -21- |
Future issuance or sale of additional shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock or other securities could adversely affect the trading prices of our outstanding Series D Preferred Stock and Common Stock. Future issuances or sales of substantial numbers of shares of our Preferred Stock or Common Stock or other securities in the public market, or the perception that such issuances or sales might occur, could adversely affect the per-share trading prices of our Preferred Stock or Common Stock. The per-share trading price of our Preferred Stock or Common Stock may decline significantly upon the sale or registration of additional shares of our Preferred Stock or Common Stock or other securities.
Future issuances of our debt securities, which would be senior to our Series D Preferred Stock upon liquidation, or preferred equity securities which may be senior to our Series D Preferred Stock for purposes of dividend distributions or upon liquidation, may adversely affect the per-share trading prices of our Series D Preferred Stock. In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by issuing additional debt securities and/or additional classes or series of Preferred Stock. Upon liquidation, holders of our debt securities and lenders with respect to other borrowings will be entitled to receive our available assets prior to any distribution to holders of our Series D Preferred Stock. Additionally, any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of our Series D Preferred Stock. Any shares of Preferred Stock that we issue in the future could have a preference on liquidating distributions or a preference on dividend payments that could limit our ability to pay dividends to holders of our Series D Preferred Stock. Any such future issuances may adversely affect the trading price of our Series D Preferred Stock.
There are restrictions on the transfer of our capital stock. To maintain our qualification as a REIT under the Code, no more than 50% in value of our outstanding capital stock may be owned, actually or by attribution, by five or fewer individuals, as defined in the Code to also include certain entities, during the last half of a taxable year. Accordingly, our charter contains provisions restricting the transfer of our capital stock. These restrictions may discourage a tender offer or other transaction, or a change in management or of control of us that might involve a premium price for our Series D Preferred Stock or Common Stock or that our shareholders otherwise believe to be in their best interests, and may result in the transfer of shares acquired in excess of the restrictions to a trust for the benefit of a charitable beneficiary and, as a result, the forfeiture by the acquirer of the benefits of owning the additional shares.
The dual listing of our Common Stock on the NYSE and the TASE may result in price variations that could adversely affect liquidity of the market for our Common Stock. Our Common Stock is listed and trades on both the NYSE and the TASE. The dual listing may result in price variations of our Common Stock between the two exchanges due to various factors, including the use of different currencies and the different days and hours of trading for the two exchanges. Any decrease in the trading price of our Common Stock in one market could cause a decrease in the trading price in the other market. In addition, the dual-listing may adversely affect liquidity and trading prices on one or both of the exchanges as a result of circumstances that may be outside of our control. For example, transfers by holders of our securities from trading on one exchange to the other could result in increases or decreases in liquidity and/or trading prices on either or both of the exchanges. Holders could also seek to sell or buy our Common Stock to take advantage of any price differences between the two markets through a practice referred to as arbitrage. Any such arbitrage activity could create volatility in both the price and volume of trading of our Common Stock.
The existing mechanism for the dual listing of securities on the NYSE and the TASE may be eliminated or modified in a manner that may subject us to additional regulatory burden and additional costs. The current Israeli regulatory regime provides a mechanism for the dual-listing of securities traded on the NYSE and the TASE that does not impose any significant regulatory burden or significant costs on us. If this dual-listing regime is eliminated or modified, it may become more difficult for us to comply with the regulatory requirements, and this could result in additional costs. In such event, we may consider delisting of our Common Stock from the TASE.
| -22- |
We are subject to restrictions that may impede our ability to effect a change in control. Certain provisions contained in our charter and bylaws and certain provisions of Maryland law may have the effect of discouraging a third party from making an acquisition proposal for us and thereby inhibit a change in control. These provisions include the following:
| ● | Our charter provides for three classes of directors with the term of office of one class expiring each year, commonly referred to as a “staggered board.” By preventing common shareholders from voting on the election of more than one class of directors at any annual meeting of shareholders, this provision may have the effect of keeping the current members of our Board in control for a longer period of time than shareholders may desire. | |
| ● | Our charter generally limits any holder from acquiring more than 9.8% (in value or in number, whichever is more restrictive) of our outstanding equity stock (defined as all of our classes of capital stock, except our excess stock). While this provision is intended to assure our ability to remain a qualified REIT for Federal income tax purposes, the ownership limit may also limit the opportunity for shareholders to receive a premium for their shares of Common Stock that might otherwise exist if an investor was attempting to assemble a block of shares in excess of 9.8% of the outstanding shares of equity stock or otherwise effect a change in control. | |
| ● | The request of shareholders entitled to cast at least a majority of all votes entitled to be cast at such meeting is necessary for shareholders to call a special meeting. We also require advance notice by common shareholders for the nomination of directors or proposals of business to be considered at a meeting of shareholders. | |
| ● | Our Board may authorize and cause us to issue securities without shareholder approval. Under our charter, the board has the power to classify and reclassify any of our unissued shares of capital stock into shares of capital stock with such preferences, rights, powers and restrictions as the Board may determine. | |
| ● | “Business combination” provisions that provide that, unless exempted, a Maryland corporation may not engage in certain business combinations, including mergers, dispositions of 10% or more of its assets, certain issuances of shares of stock and other specified transactions, with an “interested shareholder” or an affiliate of an interested shareholder for five years after the most recent date on which the interested shareholder became an interested shareholder, and thereafter unless specified criteria are met. An interested shareholder is defined generally as any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of our shares or an affiliate thereof or an affiliate or associate of ours who was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of our then outstanding voting stock at any time within the two-year period immediately prior to the date in question. | |
| ● | The duties of directors of a Maryland corporation do not require them to, among other things (a) accept, recommend or respond to any proposal by a person seeking to acquire control of the corporation, (b) authorize the corporation to redeem any rights under, or modify or render inapplicable, any shareholders rights plan, (c) make a determination under the Maryland Business Combination Act or the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act to exempt any person or transaction from the requirements of those provisions, or (d) act or fail to act solely because of the effect of the act or failure to act may have on an acquisition or potential acquisition of control of the corporation or the amount or type of consideration that may be offered or paid to the shareholders in an acquisition. |
We cannot assure you that we will be able to pay distributions regularly. Our ability to pay distributions in the future is dependent on our ability to operate profitably and to generate cash from our operations and the operations of our subsidiaries and is subject to limitations under our financing arrangements and Maryland law. Under the Maryland General Corporation Law, a Maryland corporation generally may not make a distribution if, after giving effect to the distribution, the corporation would not be able to pay its debts as the debts became due in the usual course of business, or the corporation’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus, unless the charter permits otherwise, the amount that would be needed if the corporation were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders whose preferential rights on dissolution are superior to those receiving the distribution. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to pay distributions on a regular quarterly basis in the future.
| -23- |
Dividends on our capital stock do not qualify for the reduced federal tax rates available for some dividends (i.e., they are not qualified dividends). Income from “qualified dividends” payable to U.S. shareholders that are individuals, trusts and estates are generally subject to tax at preferential rates. Dividends payable by REITs, however, generally are not eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to qualified dividend income. Although these rules do not adversely affect our taxation or the dividends payable by us, to the extent that the preferential rates continue to apply to regular corporate qualified dividends, investors who are individuals, trusts and estates may perceive an investment in us to be relatively less attractive than an investment in the stock of a non-REIT corporation that pays qualified dividends, which could materially and adversely affect the value of the shares of, and per share trading price of, our capital stock. It should be noted that the TCJA provides for a deduction from income for individuals, trusts and estates up to 20% of certain REIT dividends, which reduces the effective tax rate on such dividends below the effective tax rate on interest, though the deduction is generally not as favorable as the preferential rate on qualified dividends. While initially scheduled to expire in 2025, recent legislation has made this deduction permanent.
We are subject to risks arising from litigation. We may become involved in litigation. Litigation can be costly, and the results of litigation are often difficult to predict. We may not have adequate insurance coverage or contractual protection to cover costs and liability in the event we are sued, and to the extent we resort to litigation to enforce our rights, we may incur significant costs and ultimately be unsuccessful or unable to recover amounts we believe are owed to us. We may have little or no control of the timing of litigation, which presents challenges to our strategic planning.
Future terrorist attacks and military conflicts could have a material adverse effect on general economic conditions, consumer confidence and market liquidity. Among other things, it is possible that interest rates may be affected by these events. An increase in interest rates may increase our costs of borrowing, leading to a reduction in our earnings. Terrorist acts affecting our properties could also result in significant damages to, or loss of, our properties. Additionally, we may be unable to obtain adequate insurance coverage on acceptable economic terms for losses resulting from acts of terrorism. Our lenders may require that we carry terrorism insurance even if we do not believe this insurance is necessary or cost effective. Should an act of terrorism result in an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits, we could lose capital invested in a property, as well as the anticipated future revenues from a property, while remaining obligated for any mortgage indebtedness or other financial obligations related to the property. Any loss of these types would adversely affect our financial condition.
Disruptions in the financial markets could affect our ability to obtain financing on reasonable terms and have other adverse effects on us and the market price of our capital stock. Uncertainty in the stock and credit markets may negatively impact our ability to access additional financing at reasonable terms, which may negatively affect our ability to acquire properties and otherwise pursue our investment strategy. A prolonged downturn in the stock or credit markets may cause us to seek alternative sources of potentially less attractive financing, and may require us to adjust our investment strategy accordingly. These types of events in the stock and credit markets may make it more difficult or costly for us to raise capital through the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock, Common Stock or other equity or debt securities. The potential disruptions in the financial markets may have a material adverse effect on the market value of the Series D Preferred Stock and Common Stock, any other securities we issue, and/or the economy in general. In addition, the national and local economic climate, including that of the energy-market dependent Marcellus and Utica Shale regions, may be adversely impacted by, among other factors, potential restrictions on drilling, plant closings and industry slowdowns, which may have a material adverse effect on the return we receive on our properties and investments, as well as other unknown adverse effects on us.
We face risks relating to cybersecurity attacks which could adversely affect our business, cause loss of confidential information and disrupt operations. We rely extensively on information technology to process transactions and manage our business. In the ordinary course of our business, we collect and store sensitive data, including our business information and that of our tenants, clients, vendors and employees on our network. This data is hosted on internal, as well as external, computer systems. Our external systems are hosted by third-party service providers that may have access to such information in connection with providing necessary information technology and security and other business services to us. This information may include personally identifiable information such as social security numbers, banking information and credit card information. We employ a number of measures to prevent, detect and mitigate potential breaches or disclosure of this confidential information. We have established a Cybersecurity Subcommittee of our Audit Committee to review and provide high level guidance on cybersecurity related issues of importance to the Company. We also maintain cyber risk insurance to provide some coverage for certain risks arising out of data and network breaches. While we continue to improve our cybersecurity and take measures to protect our business, we and our third-party service providers may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers (including through malware, ransomware, computer viruses, and email phishing schemes) or breached due to employee error, malfeasance, fire, flood or other physical event, or other disruptions. Any such breach or disruption could compromise the confidential information of our employees, customers and vendors to the extent such information exists on our systems or on the systems of third-party service providers.
Even the most well-protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable to security breaches as the techniques used in attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases may not be detected. The risk of a data breach or security failure, particularly through cyber-attacks or cyber-intrusion, has generally increased due to the rise in new technologies, such as ransomware and generative artificial intelligence and other machine learning techniques (“AI”), and the increasing sophistication and activities of the perpetrators of attempted attacks and intrusions, including as a result of the intensification of state-sponsored cybersecurity attacks during periods of geopolitical conflict. The rapid evolution and increased adoption of AI by us and our third-party service providers may also heighten our cybersecurity risks by making cyber-attacks more difficult to detect, contain and mitigate.

Such an incident could result in potential liability or a loss of confidence and legal claims or proceedings; damage our reputation, competitiveness, stock price and long-term value; increase remediation, cybersecurity protection and insurance premium costs; disrupt and affect our business operations; or have material adverse effects on our business. Further, we may be required to expend significant additional resources to continue to enhance information security measures and internal processes and procedures or to investigate and remediate any information security vulnerabilities. There can be no assurance that our security measures taken to manage the risk of a security breach, cyber-attack or disruption will be effective or that attempted security breaches, cyber-attacks or disruptions would not be successful or damaging.
As new technologies, including tools that harness AI, rapidly develop and become accessible, the use of such new technologies by us will present additional known and unknown risks, including, among others, the risk that confidential information may be stolen, misappropriated or disclosed and the risk that we may rely on incorrect, unclear or biased outputs generated by such technologies, any of which could have an adverse impact on us and our business.
We operate in an intensely competitive business environment. We may not be as successful as our competitors in keeping pace with developments in technology, including incorporating generative artificial intelligence and machine learning into our business, or adapting to a rapidly changing marketplace. Our business continues to demand the use of sophisticated systems, software and technology, including AI. These systems, software and technologies must be refined, updated and replaced on a regular basis in order for us to meet our business requirements, our customers’ demands and expectations, and regulatory requirements. If we are unable to do so on a timely basis or at a reasonable cost, our business and/or operating results could be adversely affected. Our competitors may be larger, more diversified, better funded, and have access to more advanced technology, including AI. These competitive advantages may enable our competition to innovate better and more quickly, to compete more effectively, causing us to lose business and profitability. Burgeoning interest in AI may increase our competition and disrupt our business model. AI may lower barriers to entry in our industry and we may be unable to effectively compete with the products or services offered by new competitors. AI-related changes to the products and services may affect our customers’ expectations, requirements, or tastes in ways we cannot adequately anticipate or adapt to, causing our business to lose market share or affect our ability to operate profitably and sustainably.
We are dependent on continuous access to the Internet to use our cloud-based applications. Damage or failure to our information technology systems, including as a result of any of the reasons described above, could adversely affect our results of operations as we may incur significant costs or data loss. We continually assess new and enhanced information technology solutions to manage risk of system failure or interruption.
We face risks relating to expanding use of social media mediums. The use of social media could cause us to suffer brand damage or information leakage. Negative posts or comments about us or our properties on any social networking website could damage our, or our properties’ reputations. In addition, employees or others might disclose non-public sensitive information relating to our business through external media channels. The continuing evolution of social media may present us with new challenges and risks. The considerable increase in the use of social media over recent years has greatly expanded the potential scope and scale, and increased the rapidity of the dissemination of negative publicity that could be generated by negative posts and comments.
The use of AI presents risks and challenges that may adversely impact us. We intend to continue to adopt and integrate AI tools into our operations to enhance efficiencies and streamline existing systems. However, the development and maintenance of AI tools may entail substantial risks. While these tools hold promise in optimizing processes and driving efficiencies, as with many technological innovations, they also pose inherent risks. These include, but are not limited to, the potential for inaccuracy, bias, intellectual property infringement, or misappropriation, as well as concerns regarding data privacy and cyber security.
Our OZ Fund may fail to qualify for the tax benefits available for investments in qualified opportunity zones under the detailed rules adopted by the Internal Revenue Service. Some aspects of the qualified opportunity zone rules adopted by the Internal Revenue Service remain uncertain. Legislation may be needed to clarify certain of the provisions in the qualified opportunity zone rules and to give proper effect to Congressional intent as expressed in the TCJA. No assurance can be provided that additional legislation will be enacted, and even if enacted, that such additional legislation will clearly address all items that require or would benefit from clarification. It is unclear whether additional guidance will be released, or in what manner the Treasury Department will resolve any remaining areas of uncertainty. Accordingly, there can be no guarantee that our OZ Fund will qualify under the qualified opportunity zone rules as a qualified opportunity zone fund or that the Company will be able to realize, through its investment in the fund, any of the desired tax benefits.
We face various risks and uncertainties related to public health crises, pandemics or other highly infectious or contagious diseases. Although the World Health Organization declared the public health emergency to be over, we face various risks and uncertainties related to public health crises which may disrupt financial markets and significantly impacted worldwide economic activity. A further epidemic, pandemic or other future health crisis, as well as mandatory and voluntary actions taken to mitigate the public health impact of any such health crisis may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects.

Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy
The Company’s cybersecurity risk management strategy focuses on several areas:
| ● | Identification and Reporting: The Company has implemented a comprehensive, cross-functional approach to assessing, identifying and managing material cybersecurity threats and incidents. The Company’s program includes controls and procedures to properly identify, classify and escalate certain cybersecurity incidents to provide management visibility and obtain direction from management as to the public disclosure and reporting of material incidents in a timely manner. |
| ● | Technical Safeguards: The Company implements technical safeguards that are designed to protect the Company’s information systems from cybersecurity threats. The company uses a managed antivirus platform to scan for viruses, manage patching and updates, and provide remote support and monitoring tools. Firewalls, web filtration, network intrusion prevention measures, monitoring nodes, and network access controls are evaluated annually and improved through vulnerability assessments. All company accounts have strong passwords and two factor authentication, where available. The Information Technology (“IT”) Department researches emerging cybersecurity threats and keeps employees informed on the best security practices. We have also implemented Threatlocker on our corporate machines, a zero trust program that will prevent unapproved software to run. |
| ● | Incident Response and Recovery Planning: The Company has established and maintains comprehensive incident response, business continuity, and disaster recovery plans designed to address the Company’s response to a cybersecurity incident. The Company conducts regular tabletop exercises to test these plans and ensure personnel are familiar with their roles in a response scenario. |
| ● | Third-Party
Risk Management: |
| ● | Education and Awareness: The Company provides regular, mandatory training for all levels of employees regarding cybersecurity threats as a means to equip the Company’s employees with effective tools to address cybersecurity threats, and to communicate the Company’s evolving information security policies, standards, processes, and practices. |
The Company conducts periodic assessment and testing of the Company’s policies, standards, processes, and practices in a manner intended to address cybersecurity threats and events. The Company conducts annual reviews of backup logs, access privileges, financial transactions, and application updates. Backups are tested for integrity and functionality. The company regularly conducts seminars on the rollout of new applications and features for employees, as well as administering phishing testing and security awareness training. The results of such assessments, audits, and reviews are evaluated by management and reported to the Cybersecurity Subcommittee and the Board, and the Company adjusts its cybersecurity policies, standards, processes, and practices as necessary based on the information provided by these assessments, audits, and reviews.

The members of the IT Department have served in various roles in information technology and information security for over six years. The IT Systems Administrators have experience in monitoring arising security threats, creating documented cybersecurity and technology usage policies, and bringing companies into compliance with cybersecurity regulations.

Item 2 – Properties
UMH Properties, Inc. is engaged in the ownership and operation of manufactured home communities. As of December 31, 2025, the Company operated a portfolio of 145 manufactured home communities, of which 142 are majority owned and are included in our consolidated operations with the remaining three owned through our joint ventures with Nuveen Real Estate in which the Company has a 40% interest. One of these joint ventures owns two communities in Florida (Sebring Square and Rum Runner) and one joint venture owns one community in Pennsylvania (Honey Ridge). Of the 142 majority owned communities, 140 are owned 100% by the Company with the remaining two owned by the Company’s Opportunity Zone Fund, in which the Company has a 77% interest. The Company’s portfolio of 145 communities contain a total of approximately 27,100 developed homesites, of which 11,000 contain rental homes that are leased to residents. These 145 communities are located in twelve states consisting of New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Alabama, South Carolina, Florida and Georgia. The rents collectible from the land in our communities ultimately depend on the value of the home and land. Therefore, fewer but more expensive homes can actually produce the same or greater rents. There is a long-term trend toward larger manufactured homes. Existing manufactured home communities designed for older manufactured homes must be modified to accommodate modern, wider and longer manufactured homes. These changes may decrease the number of homes that may be accommodated in a manufactured home community. For this reason, the number of developed sites operated by the Company is subject to change, and the number of developed sites listed is always an approximate number. The following table sets forth certain information concerning the Company’s real estate investments as of December 31, 2025.

Phase IV, consisting of 105 sites, was completed in 2025. Phase V is in the approval process and will allow up to an additional 205 sites. |
| (5) | We are currently seeking site plan approvals for approximately 360 sites for this property. |
The Company also has 2,336 undeveloped acres that may be developed into approximately 9,300 sites. We have approximately 3,300 sites in various stages of the approval process that may be developed over the next several years. Due to the uncertainties involved in the approval and construction process, it is difficult to predict the number of sites which will be completed in a given year.
Significant Properties
The Company owned and operated manufactured home properties with an approximate cost of $1.9 billion as of December 31, 2025.

Mortgages on Properties
The Company has mortgages on many of its properties. The maturity dates of these mortgages range from 2026 to 2035, with a weighted average term of 6.1 years. Interest on these mortgages is payable at fixed rates ranging from 2.62% to 6.74%. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the weighted average interest rate on our mortgages, not including the effect of unamortized debt issuance costs, was approximately 4.7% and 4.2%, respectively. The aggregate balances of these mortgages, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, totaled $556.1 million and $485.5 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. (For additional information, see Part IV, Item 15(a) (1) (vi), Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Loans and Mortgages Payable).
Joint Ventures with Nuveen
In December 2021, the Company and Nuveen Real Estate, established a joint venture for the purpose of acquiring manufactured housing and/or recreational vehicle communities that are under development and/or newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. The terms of the initial joint venture entity were set forth in a Limited Liability Company Agreement dated as of December 8, 2021 (the “2021 LLC Agreement”) entered into between a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of Nuveen. The 2021 LLC Agreement provided for the parties to initially fund up to $70 million of equity capital for acquisitions during a 24-month commitment period, with Nuveen having the option, subject to certain conditions, to elect to increase the parties’ total commitments by up to an additional $100 million and to extend the commitment period for up to an additional four years. The 2021 LLC Agreement called for committed capital to be funded 60% by Nuveen and 40% by the Company on a parity basis. The Company serves as managing member of the joint venture entity and is responsible for day-to-day operations of the joint venture entity and management of its properties, subject to obtaining approval of Nuveen Real Estate for major decisions (including investments, dispositions, financings, major capital expenditures and annual budgets). The Company receives property management, asset management and other fees from the joint venture entity. In addition, once each member has recouped its invested capital and received a 7.5% net unlevered internal rate of return, 80% of distributable cash will be allocated pro rata in accordance with the members’ respective percentage interests and the Company and Nuveen will receive a promote percentage equal to 70% (in the case of the Company) and 30% (in the case of Nuveen) of the remaining 20% of distributable cash. After seven years the Company may elect to consummate the crystallization of the promote.
Under the terms of the 2021 LLC Agreement, after December 8, 2024 or, if later, the second anniversary of the acquisition and placing in service of a manufactured housing or recreational vehicle community, Nuveen will have a right to initiate the sale of one or more of the communities owned by the joint venture entity. If Nuveen elects to initiate such a sale process, the Company may exercise a right of first refusal to acquire Nuveen’s interest in the community or communities to be sold for a purchase price corresponding to the greater of the appraised value of such communities or the amount required to provide a 7.5% net unlevered internal rate of return on Nuveen’s investment. In addition, the Company will have the right to buy out Nuveen’s interest in the joint venture entity at any time after December 8, 2031 at a purchase price corresponding to the greater of the appraised value of the portfolio or the amount required to provide a 7.5% net unlevered internal rate of return on Nuveen’s investment.
The 2021 LLC Agreement between the Company and Nuveen provided that until the capital contributions to the joint venture are fully funded or the joint venture is terminated, the joint venture will be the exclusive vehicle for the Company to acquire any manufactured housing communities and/or recreational vehicle communities that meet the joint venture’s investment guidelines. These guidelines called for the joint venture to acquire manufactured housing and recreational vehicle communities that have been developed within the previous two years and are less than 20% occupied, are located in certain geographic markets, are projected to meet certain cash flow and internal rate of return targets, and satisfy certain other criteria. The Company agreed to offer Nuveen the opportunity to have the joint venture acquire any manufactured housing community or recreational vehicle community that meets these investment guidelines. Under the terms of the 2021 LLC Agreement, if Nuveen determines not to pursue or approve any such acquisition, the Company would be permitted to acquire the property outside the joint venture. Since the execution of the 2021 LLC Agreement, Nuveen has provided the Company with written waivers of the exclusivity provision of the 2021 LLC Agreement with regard to two property acquisitions that may have fit the investment guidelines of the joint venture, which permitted the Company to acquire them outside of the Nuveen joint venture. Except for investment opportunities that are offered to and declined by Nuveen, the Company is prohibited from developing, owning, operating or managing manufactured housing communities or recreational vehicle communities within a 10-mile radius of any community owned by the joint venture. However, this restriction does not apply with respect to investments by the Company in existing communities operated by the Company.

The 2021 LLC Agreement provides that Nuveen will have the right to remove and replace the Company as managing member of the joint venture and manager of the joint venture’s properties if the Company breaches certain obligations or certain events occur. Upon such removal, Nuveen may elect to buy out the Company’s interest in the joint venture at 98% of the value of the Company’s interest in the joint venture. If Nuveen does not exercise such buy-out right, the Company may, at specified times, elect to initiate a sale of the communities owned by the joint venture, subject to a right of first refusal on the part of Nuveen. The 2021 LLC Agreement contains restrictions on a party’s right to transfer its interest in the joint venture without the approval of the other party.
The 2021 LLC Agreement requires the Company to offer Nuveen the opportunity to have the joint venture acquire a manufactured housing community or recreational vehicle community that meets the investment guidelines. If Nuveen decides not to acquire the community through the joint venture, however, the Company is free to purchase the community on its own outside of the joint venture.
In December 2021, the joint venture entity formed under the 2021 LLC Agreement closed on the acquisition of Sebring Square, a newly developed all-age, manufactured home community located in Sebring, Florida, for a total purchase price of $22.2 million. This community contains 219 developed homesites situated on approximately 39 acres. In December 2022, this joint venture entity closed on the acquisition of Rum Runner, another newly developed all-age, manufactured home community also located in Sebring, Florida for a total purchase price of $15.1 million. This community contains 144 developed homesites situated on approximately 20 acres. The Company manages these communities on behalf of the joint venture entity.
During the time since the joint venture with Nuveen was first established in 2021, the Company and Nuveen have continued to seek opportunities to acquire additional manufactured housing and/or recreational vehicle communities that are under development and/or newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. During 2022, the Company and Nuveen informally agreed that any future acquisitions would be made by one or more new joint venture entities to be formed for that purpose and that the original joint venture entity formed in December 2021 will not consummate additional acquisitions but will maintain its existing property portfolio, consisting of the Sebring Square and Rum Runner communities. The Company and Nuveen also informally agreed that, unless otherwise determined in connection with any specific future investment, capital for any such new joint venture entity would continue to be funded 60% by Nuveen and 40% by the Company on a parity basis and that other terms would be similar to those of the 2021 LLC Agreement, except that the amounts of the parties’ respective capital commitments will be determined on a property-by-property basis.
In November 2023, the Company expanded its relationship with Nuveen Real Estate and formed a second joint venture entity with Nuveen. The new joint venture entity was established to, directly or through one or more subsidiaries, identify, source, originate, acquire, hold, operate, sell, lease, mortgage, maintain, own, manage, finance, refinance, reposition, improve, renovate, develop, redevelop, pledge, hedge, exchange, and otherwise deal in and with the rental of manufactured housing and/or recreational vehicle communities that meet other investment guidelines. The terms of the new joint venture entity are set forth in a Limited Liability Company Agreement dated as of November 29, 2023 (the “2023 LLC Agreement”) entered into between a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of Nuveen.
The Company serves as managing member of this new joint venture entity and is responsible for day-to-day operations of the joint venture entity and management of its properties, subject to obtaining approval of Nuveen Real Estate for major decisions (including investments, dispositions, financings, major capital expenditures and annual budgets). The Company receives property management oversight, development and other fees from the joint venture entity. Sixty-one acres of land located in Honey Brook, Pennsylvania, previously owned by the Company, with a carrying value cost basis of $3.8 million, was contributed to the new joint venture entity. The Company was reimbursed by Nuveen for 60% of the carrying value of this land. This new joint venture entity is focused on the development and operation of a new manufactured housing community on this property. The community contains 113 manufactured home sites situated on approximately 61 acres. This community, named Honey Ridge, opened for occupancy in June 2025 with 22 homes on-site of which ten have been sold.
References in this report to the Company’s joint venture relationships with Nuveen are intended to refer to its ongoing relationships with Nuveen under the 2021 LLC Agreement and the 2023 LLC Agreement.
The Company accounts for its joint ventures with Nuveen Real Estate under the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 323, “Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures”.
Opportunity Zone Fund
The OZ Fund was created in July 2022 to acquire, develop and redevelop manufactured housing communities requiring substantial capital investment and located in areas designated as qualified opportunity zones by the Treasury Department pursuant to a program authorized under the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act to encourage long-term investment in economically distressed areas. The OZ Fund was designed to allow the Company and other investors in the OZ Fund to defer the tax on recently realized capital gains reinvested in the OZ Fund until December 31, 2026 and to potentially obtain certain other tax benefits. At the time of the OZ Fund’s formation, the Company invested $8.0 million in the OZ Fund. UMH manages the OZ Fund and will receive certain management fees as well as a 15% carried interest in distributions by the OZ Fund to the other investors (subject to first returning investor capital with a 5% preferred return). UMH will have a right of first offer to purchase the communities from the OZ Fund at the time of sale at their then-current appraised value. The OZ Fund owns two communities: Garden View Estates, located in Orangeburg, South Carolina, and Mighty Oak, located in Albany, Georgia. For additional information about the Company’s opportunity zone fund, see Note 6, “Opportunity Zone Fund,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Item 3 – Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business. For additional information about legal proceedings, see Part IV, Item 15(a)(1)(vi), Note 14, “Commitments, Contingencies and Legal Matters” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

PART II
Item 5 – Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Market Information
The Company’s Series D Preferred Stock and its Common Stock are traded on the NYSE, under the symbols “UMHPRD” and “UMH”, respectively. Effective February 9, 2022, the Company’s Common Stock also began trading on the TASE.
Shareholder Information
As of February 17, 2026, there were 1,174 registered shareholders of the Company’s Common Stock based on the number of record owners. Because many shares of the Company’s Common Stock are held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of their clients, we believe there are considerably more beneficial holders of our Common Stock than record holders.
Dividends
During the year ended December 31, 2025, effective with the second quarter dividend payment, the Company increased its quarterly cash dividends to holders of its Common Stock from $0.215 to $0.225 per share. Total dividends paid for 2025 were $0.89 per share.
In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we are required, among other things, to annually distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and any net capital gain. In addition, we intend to distribute all or substantially all of our net income so that we will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our earnings.
In general, our Board makes decisions regarding payment of dividends on a quarterly basis. The Board considers many factors when making these decisions, including our present and future liquidity needs, our current and projected financial condition and results of operations. See Item 1A. Risk Factors in this Form 10-K for a description of factors that may affect our ability to pay dividends.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Equity Securities
None.
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
On September 22, 2025, the Board increased our Common Stock Repurchase Program (the “Repurchase Program”) so as to authorize us to repurchase up to $100 million in the aggregate of the Company’s Common Stock. Purchases under the Repurchase Program are permitted to be made using a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or block trades, or by any combination of such methods, in accordance with applicable insider trading and other securities laws and regulations. The size, scope and timing of any purchases would be based on business, market and other conditions and factors, including price, regulatory and contractual requirements or consents, and capital availability. The Repurchase Program does not require the Company to acquire any particular amount of Common Stock and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion without prior notice. During 2025, the Company repurchased 320,000 shares of our Common Stock at an aggregate cost of $4.8 million, or a weighted average price of $15.06 per share. The last repurchase was made on December 3, 2025.

Comparative Stock Performance
The following line graph compares the total return of the Company’s Common Stock for the last five years to the MSCI REIT index (“RMS”), the FTSE Nareit All REITs Index published by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) and to the S&P 500 Index for the same period. The graph assumes a $100 investment in our Common Stock and in each of the indexes listed below on December 31, 2020 and the reinvestment of all dividends. The total return reflects stock price appreciation and dividend reinvestment for all three comparative indices. The information herein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but neither its accuracy nor its completeness is guaranteed. Our stock performance shown in the graph below is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance. In the prior year, the Company compared the Company’s Common Stock for the last five years to the FTSE Nareit All REITs Index published by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) and to the S&P 500 Index for the same period. In the current year, the Company changed this comparison to the RMS since it is more readily available.

Refer to the discussion below in this Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition, Results of Operations, and Non-U.S. GAAP Measures, contained in this Form 10-K for information regarding the presentation of community NOI, and for the presentation and reconciliation of funds from operations and normalized funds from operations to net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders.
Overview
The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the historical Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
The Company is incorporated in Maryland and operates as a self-administered, self-managed REIT with its headquarters in Freehold, New Jersey. The Company’s primary business is the ownership and operation of manufactured home communities, which includes leasing manufactured home spaces on an annual or month-to-month basis to residents. The Company also leases manufactured homes to residents and, through its wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary, S&F, sells and finances the sale of manufactured homes to residents and prospective residents of our communities and for placement on customers’ privately-owned land. During 2022, the Company also formed an opportunity zone fund to acquire, develop and redevelop manufactured housing communities requiring substantial capital investment and located in areas designated as Qualified Opportunity Zones by the Treasury Department pursuant to a program authorized under the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act to encourage long-term investment in economically distressed areas. The Company holds a 77% interest in its OZ Fund.
| -43- |
As of December 31, 2025, the Company operated a portfolio of 145 manufactured home communities, of which 142 are majority owned and are included in our consolidated operations with the remaining three owned through our joint ventures with Nuveen Real Estate in which the Company has a 40% interest. One of these joint ventures owns two communities in Florida (Sebring Square and Rum Runner) and one joint venture owns one community in Pennsylvania (Honey Ridge). Of the 142 majority owned communities, 140 are owned 100% by the Company with the remaining two owned by the Company’s Opportunity Zone Fund, in which the Company has a 77% interest. The Company’s portfolio of 145 communities contain a total of approximately 27,100 developed homesites, of which 11,000 contain rental homes that are leased to residents. These 145 communities are located in twelve states consisting of New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Alabama, South Carolina, Florida and Georgia. In addition, the Company has over 1,000 self-storage units that are available for leasing by residents. UMH has continued to execute our growth strategy of purchasing well-located communities in our target markets, including the energy-rich Marcellus and Utica Shale regions.
The Company earns income from the operation of its manufactured home communities which includes leasing of manufactured homesites, the rental of manufactured homes, the sale and finance of manufactured homes, the brokering of third party home sales, self-storage leases, oil and gas leases, cable service agreements and from appreciation in the values of the manufactured home communities and vacant land owned by the Company. In addition, the Company receives property management and other fees from its joint venture arrangements with Nuveen and from its opportunity zone fund. Management views the Company as a single segment based on its method of internal reporting in addition to its allocation of capital and resources.
Occupancy in our properties, as well as our ability to increase rental rates, directly affects revenues. In 2025, total income increased 9% from the prior year due to our rental program, rent increases and the growth of our sales business. Community NOI (as defined below under Non-U.S. GAAP Measures) increased 9% from the prior year. Overall occupancy increased 80 basis points from 87.3% as of December 31, 2024 to 88.1% as of December 31, 2025. Same property occupancy, which includes communities owned and operated as of January 1, 2024, increased 80 basis points from 87.5% as of December 31, 2024 to 88.3% as of December 31, 2025. (Unless expressly indicated, information in this report with respect to the Company’s properties, including financial and operating results for the year ended December 31, 2025, does not include the properties owned by the Company’s joint ventures with Nuveen.)
Demand for quality affordable housing remains healthy while inventory is scarce. Our property type offers substantial comparative value that should result in continued high demand.
The macro-economic environment and current housing fundamentals continue to favor home rentals. Although 30-year fixed rate mortgage rates have shown signs of stabilizing, they are still approximately 6%. Housing inventory has improved but affordability remains a challenge for many prospective buyers, especially lower and middle-income households. We believe rental homes in a manufactured home community allow the resident to obtain the efficiencies of factory-built housing and the amenities of community living for less than the cost of other forms of affordable housing. We continue to see strong demand for rental homes. During 2025, our portfolio of rental homes increased by 571 homes, net of rental home sales. Occupied rental homes represent approximately 43.6% of total occupied sites. Occupancy in rental homes continues to be strong and registered at 93.8% as of December 31, 2025. Our manufactured home communities compare favorably with other types of rental housing, including apartments, and we will continue to allocate capital to rental home purchases, as demand dictates.
The Company holds a portfolio of marketable equity securities of other REITs with a fair value of $23.8 million as of December 31, 2025, representing 1.1% of our undepreciated assets (total assets excluding accumulated depreciation). The REIT securities portfolio provides the Company with additional diversification, liquidity and income. As of December 31, 2025, 97% of the Company’s portfolio consisted of REIT common stocks and 3% consisted of REIT preferred stocks. Other than purchasing marketable equity securities through automatic dividend reinvestments, the Company has not made any purchases of REIT securities during 2023, 2024 and 2025 and the Company does not intend to increase its investment in the REIT securities portfolio.
| -44- |
The Company’s weighted average yield on the securities portfolio was approximately 5.2% at December 31, 2025. At December 31, 2025, the Company had net unrealized losses of $40.8 million in its REIT securities portfolio. During 2025, the Company sold positions in securities, generating a net realized loss of $221,000.
The Company continues to strengthen its balance sheet. During the year ended December 31, 2025, through an at-the-market sale program for our Common Stock that was established in September 2024 (the “September 2024 Common ATM Program”), the Company issued and sold a total of 2.6 million shares of our Common Stock, generating gross proceeds of $45.1 million and net proceeds of $44.1 million, after offering expenses. Additionally, during 2025 the Company raised approximately $9.3 million in new capital through the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (“DRIP”).
During the year ended December 31, 2025, through an at-the-market sale program for our Preferred Stock that was established in January 2023 (the “2023 Preferred ATM Program”), and an at-the-market sale program for our Preferred Stock that was established in March 2025 (the “2025 Preferred ATM Program”), the Company issued and sold a total of approximately 93,000 shares of our Series D Preferred Stock, generating gross proceeds of $2.1 million and net proceeds of $2.0 million, after offering expenses.
On July 22, 2025, the Company issued approximately $80.2 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.85% Series B Bonds Due 2030 (the “Series B Bonds”) in an offering to investors in Israel. The net proceeds, after deducting offering discounts, fees and other transaction costs, were approximately $75.1 million.
The Company believes that its capital structure, which allows for the ownership of assets using a balanced combination of equity obtained through the issuance of Common Stock, Preferred Stock and debt, will enhance shareholder returns as the properties appreciate over time.
On December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $72 million in cash and cash equivalents and $260 million available on our credit facility, with a potential total availability of up to $500 million pursuant to an accordion feature. We also had $129 million available on our revolving lines of credit for the financing of home sales and the purchase of inventory and $55 million available on our lines of credit secured by rental homes and rental home leases.
The Company intends to continue to increase its real estate investments. Our business plan includes acquiring communities that over time are expected to yield in excess of our cost of funds and then investing in physical improvements, including adding rental homes onto otherwise vacant sites. As part of this plan, we intend to continue to seek opportunities, through opportunity zone funds, to acquire communities that require substantial capital investment and are located in qualified opportunity zones. In addition, on behalf of our joint venture arrangements with Nuveen Real Estate, we will continue to seek opportunities to acquire manufactured home communities that are under development and/or newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. There is no guarantee that any of these additional opportunities will continue to materialize or that the Company will be able to take advantage of such opportunities. The growth of our real estate portfolio and success of the joint ventures depends on the availability of suitable properties which meet the Company’s investment criteria and appropriate financing. Competition in the market areas in which the Company operates is significant. To the extent that funds or appropriate communities are not available, fewer acquisitions will be made.
See PART I, Item 1- Business and Item 1A – Risk Factors for a more complete discussion of the economic and industry-wide factors relevant to the Company, the Company’s lines of business and principal products and services, and the opportunities, challenges and risks on which the Company is focused.

Results of Operations
2025 vs. 2024
Rental and related income increased from $207.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $226.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, or 10%. This increase was due to acquisitions, increases in rental rates and same property occupancy and additional rental homes. Since 2024, the Company has been raising rental rates by approximately 5% to 6% annually at most communities. The Company has been acquiring communities with vacant sites that can potentially be occupied and earn income in the future. Overall occupancy was 88.1% and 87.3% at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Same property occupancy has increased 80 basis points from 87.5% at December 31, 2024 to 88.3% at December 31, 2025. Demand for rental homes continues to be strong. As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately 10,900 rental homes, not including rental homes in the joint venture communities, with an occupancy rate of 93.8%. We continue to evaluate the demand for rental homes and will invest in additional homes as demand dictates.
Community operating expenses increased from $87.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $96.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, or 10%. This increase was due to acquisitions and an increase in payroll costs, real estate taxes, snow removal and water and sewer costs. This increase also includes one-time legal and professional fees of $724,000 for 2025.
Community NOI increased from $119.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $130.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, or 9%. This increase was primarily due to acquisitions, the increases in rental rates, occupancy and rental homes. The operating expense ratio (defined as community operating expenses divided by rental and related income), without the one-time legal and professional fees, improved 20 basis points from 42.2% in 2024 to 42.0% for 2025. Many recently acquired communities have deferred maintenance requiring higher than normal expenditures in the first few years of ownership. Since most of the community expenses consist of fixed costs, as occupancy rates increase, these expense ratios are expected to continue to improve. Due to the Company’s ability to increase its rental rates annually (subject to limitations on rent increases in certain jurisdictions), increasing costs due to inflation and changing prices have generally not had a material effect on revenue and income from continuing operations.
Sales of manufactured homes increased from $33.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $35.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, or 4%. Cost of sales of manufactured homes increased from $21.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $22.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, or 3%. The gross profit percentage was 36% and 35% for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Selling expenses increased from $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $7.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, or 7%. Gain from the sales operations, excluding interest on the financing of inventory, increased 8% and amounted to a gain of $5.2 million and $4.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Conventional home prices have flattened as sellers begin to outnumber buyers. Although the housing market supply has increased in recent months it remains below the available units that prevailed before the COVID-19 pandemic. The inherent relative affordability of our property type has become more and more apparent, which should result in increased demand. The Company continues to be optimistic about future sales and rental prospects given the fundamental need for affordable housing. The Company believes that sales of new homes produce new rental revenue and represent an investment in the upgrading of our communities.

General and administrative expenses remained relatively stable for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2025. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of gross revenue (total income plus interest, dividends and other income) was approximately 7.9% and 8.7% for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Depreciation expense increased from $60.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $66.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, or 10%. This increase was primarily due to acquisitions and the increases in rental homes and expansions during 2025 and 2024.
Interest income increased from $7.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $8.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, or 23%. This increase was due to an increase in interest earned from our excess cash and from our notes receivable. The average balance in cash in money market accounts increased from approximately $26.6 million in 2024 to $50.1 million in 2025. The average interest rate earned on this cash was approximately 3.2% and 3.7% in 2025 and 2024, respectively. Additionally, there was an increase in the average balance of notes receivable from $83.9 million in 2024 to $95.4 million in 2025. The weighted average interest rate earned on these notes receivable was approximately 7.0% and 7.1% in 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Dividend income remained relatively stable at just under $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2025.
The Company recognized a realized loss on sales of marketable securities of $221,000 and $3.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The change in fair value of marketable securities amounted to a decrease of $2.3 million and an increase of $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had total net unrealized losses of $40.8 million in its REIT securities portfolio.
Interest expense, including amortization of financing costs, increased from $27.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 to $29.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, or 9%. This increase was mainly due to the issuance of the Series B Bonds in July 2025 and the refinancing of mortgage debt at higher rates. The average balance of our total debt increased from $652.4 million at December 31, 2024 to $688.0 million at December 31, 2025. The weighted average interest rate on our total debt increased from 4.4% at December 31, 2024 to 4.9% at December 31, 2025, respectively.
2024 vs. 2023
Rental and related income increased from $189.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $207.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or 9%. This increase was due to increases in rental rates, same property occupancy and additional rental homes. During 2024, the Company raised rental rates by 5% to 6% at most communities. Rent increases vary depending on overall market conditions and demand. Occupancy, as well as the ability to increase rental rates, directly affects revenues. The Company has been acquiring communities with vacant sites that can potentially be occupied and earn income in the future. Overall occupancy was 87.3% and 86.7% at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, we had approximately 10,300 rental homes with an occupancy rate of 94.0%.
Community operating expenses increased from $81.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $87.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or 7%. This increase was due to increases in payroll and payroll costs, real estate taxes, insurance, professional fees, waste removal, water expenses and sewer expenses.
Community NOI increased from $108.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $119.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or 10%. This increase was primarily due to the increases in rental rates, occupancy and rental homes. The operating expense ratio (defined as community operating expenses divided by rental and related income) improved 70 basis points from 42.9% in 2023 to 42.2% for 2024.
Sales of manufactured homes increased from $31.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $33.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or 8%. The total number of homes sold increased 16% from 341 homes in 2023 to 394 homes in 2024. Cost of sales of manufactured homes increased from $21.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $21.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or 4%. The gross profit percentage was 35% and 32% for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Selling expenses remained relatively stable for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024. Gain from the sales operations, excluding interest on the financing of inventory, increased 53% and amounted to a gain of $4.8 million and $3.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
| -47- |
General and administrative expenses increased from $19.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $21.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or 11%. This increase was primarily due to an increase in payroll and related personnel cost and an increase in meeting costs as a result of our biennial in-person employee training meeting (which was not held during 2023). General and administrative expenses, excluding non-recurring expenses, as a percentage of gross revenue (total income plus interest, dividends and other income) was approximately 8.7% and 8.1% for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Depreciation expense increased from $55.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $60.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or 8%. This increase was primarily due to the increases in rental homes during 2024 and 2023.
Interest income increased from $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $7.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or 43%. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of notes receivable from $71.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $83.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 and interest earned on excess cash during 2024. The weighted average interest rate earned on notes receivables increased 10 basis points and was 7.1% and 7.0% as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Dividend income decreased from $2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or 37%. This decrease was due to reduced dividends from a combination of our smaller securities portfolio and the weighted average yield on our dividends received from our marketable securities investments. The weighted average yield decreased 220 basis points from 6.7% in 2023 to 4.5% in 2024.
The Company recognized a realized loss on sales of marketable securities of $3.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company recognized a realized gain on sales of marketable securities of $183,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023. The change in fair value of marketable securities amounted to an increase of $1.2 million and a decrease of $3.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had total net unrealized losses of $38.5 million in its REIT securities portfolio.
Interest expense, including amortization of financing costs, decreased from $32.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 to $27.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or 16%. This decrease was due to a decrease in the average balance of mortgages and loans from $626.2 million at December 31, 2023 to $551.9 million at December 31, 2024. The weighted average interest rate on our total debt decreased from 4.6% at December 31, 2023 to 4.4% at December 31, 2024, respectively.
Non-U.S. GAAP Measures
In addition to the results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP, management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations include certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures that in management’s view of the business we believe are meaningful as they allow the investor the ability to understand key operating details of our business both with and without regard to certain accounting conventions or items that may not always be indicative of recurring annual cash flows of the portfolio. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures as determined and presented by us may not be comparable to related or similarly titled measures reported by other companies, and include Community Net Operating Income (“Community NOI”), Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders (“FFO”) and Normalized Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders (“Normalized FFO”).
We define Community NOI as rental and related income less community operating expenses such as real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, community salaries, utilities, insurance and other expenses. We believe that Community NOI is helpful to investors and analysts as a direct measure of the actual operating results of our manufactured home communities, rather than our Company overall. Community NOI should not be considered a substitute for the reported results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Community NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indicator of our financial performance, or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity; nor is it indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions.
| -48- |
The Company’s Community NOI for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 is calculated as follows (in thousands):

We assess and measure our overall operating results based upon FFO, an industry performance measure which management believes is a useful indicator of our operating performance. FFO is used by industry analysts and investors as a supplemental operating performance measure of a REIT. FFO, as defined by Nareit, represents net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders, as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”), excluding certain gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated real estate assets, impairment charges related to depreciable real estate assets, the change in the fair value of marketable securities, and the gain or loss on the sale of marketable securities plus certain non-cash items such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization. Included in the Nareit FFO White Paper - 2018 Restatement, is an option pertaining to assets incidental to our main business in the calculation of Nareit FFO to make an election to include or exclude gains and losses on the sale of these assets, such as marketable equity securities, and include or exclude mark-to-market changes in the value recognized on these marketable equity securities. In conjunction with the adoption of the FFO White Paper - 2018 Restatement, for all periods presented, we have elected to exclude the change in the fair value of marketable securities from our FFO calculation. Nareit created FFO as a non-U.S. GAAP supplemental measure of REIT operating performance. We define Normalized Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders (“Normalized FFO”), as FFO, excluding certain one-time charges. FFO and Normalized FFO should be considered as supplemental measures of operating performance used by REITs. FFO and Normalized FFO exclude historical cost depreciation as an expense and may facilitate the comparison of REITs which have a different cost basis. However, other REITs may use different methodologies to calculate FFO and Normalized FFO and, accordingly, our FFO and Normalized FFO may not be comparable to all other REITs. The items excluded from FFO and Normalized FFO are significant components in understanding the Company’s financial performance.
FFO and Normalized FFO (i) do not represent Cash Flow from Operations as defined by U.S. GAAP; (ii) should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities; and (iii) are not alternatives to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO and Normalized FFO, as calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other REITs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company operates as a REIT deriving its income primarily from real estate rental operations. The Company’s principal liquidity demands have historically been, and are expected to continue to be, distributions to the Company’s shareholders, acquisitions, capital improvements, development and expansions of properties, debt service, purchases of manufactured home inventory and rental homes, financing of manufactured home sales and payments of expenses relating to real estate operations. The Company’s ability to generate cash adequate to meet these demands is dependent primarily on income from its real estate investments and marketable securities portfolio, the sale of real estate investments and marketable securities, refinancing of mortgage debt, leveraging of real estate investments, availability of bank borrowings, lines of credit, and other incurrence of indebtedness, proceeds from the DRIP, and access to the capital markets, including sales of Common Stock and Series D Preferred Stock through its At-the-Market Sale Programs. The Company’s operating cash flows are expected to be sufficient to fund recurring operating expenses and required distributions to maintain REIT qualification. Access to the capital markets, including the Company’s at-the-market programs, is primarily utilized to fund growth initiatives, acquisitions, development, and balance sheet management rather than to support recurring operating expenses. The Company may sell marketable securities from its investment portfolio, borrow on its unsecured credit facility or lines of credit, incur other indebtedness, finance and refinance its properties, and/or raise capital through the DRIP and capital markets, including through the Company’s At-the-Market Sale Programs. In order to provide continued financial flexibility to opportunistically access the capital markets, on September 16, 2024, the Company terminated its successful then-existing at-the-market Common Stock program and implemented a new September 2024 Common ATM Program, which allows the Company to offer and sell shares of Common Stock, having an aggregate sales price of up to $150 million, from time to time through the distribution agents thereunder. Additionally, on March 5, 2025, the Company terminated its successful then-existing 2023 Preferred ATM Program and implemented a new 2025 Preferred ATM Program which allows the Company to offer and sell shares of Series D Preferred Stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $100 million from time to time through B. Riley, as distribution agent.

The Company intends to continue to increase its real estate investments. Our business plan includes acquiring communities that over time are expected to yield in excess of our cost of funds and then investing in physical improvements, including adding rental homes onto otherwise vacant sites. As part of this plan, we intend to continue to seek opportunities, through opportunity zone funds, to acquire communities that require substantial capital investment and are located in qualified opportunity zones. In addition, on behalf of our joint ventures with Nuveen Real Estate, we will continue to seek opportunities to acquire manufactured home communities that are under development and/or newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. There is no guarantee that any of these additional opportunities will materialize or that the Company will be able to take advantage of such opportunities. The growth of our real estate portfolio and success of our joint venture depends on the availability of suitable properties which meet the Company’s investment criteria and appropriate financing. Competition in the market areas in which the Company operates is significant. To the extent that funds or appropriate communities are not available, fewer acquisitions will be made.
The Company continues to strengthen its capital and liquidity positions. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company issued and sold 2.6 million shares of Common Stock through our September 2024 Common ATM Program at a weighted average price of $17.59 per share, generating gross proceeds of $45.1 million and net proceeds of $44.1 million, after offering expenses.
Through our Preferred ATM Programs, the Company issued and sold a total of 93,000 shares of our Series D Preferred Stock generating gross proceeds of $2.1 million and net proceeds after offering expenses of $2.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2025.
As of December 31, 2025, $44.6 million of Common Stock remained available for sale under the September 2024 Common ATM Program and $99.0 million in shares of Series D Preferred Stock remained available for sale under the 2025 Preferred ATM Program. Subsequent to year end, the Company issued and sold a total of 66,000 shares of Preferred Stock under the 2025 Preferred ATM Program for gross proceeds of $1.5 million.
In addition, the Company has a DRIP in which participants can purchase original issue shares of Common Stock from the Company at a price of approximately 95% of market. During 2025, amounts received under the DRIP, including dividends reinvested of $3.5 million, totaled $9.3 million. The Company issued a total of 591,000 shares under the DRIP during 2025.
On July 22, 2025, the Company issued approximately $80.2 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.85% Series B Bonds due 2030 in an offering to investors in Israel. The net proceeds, after deducting offering discounts, fees and other transaction costs, were approximately $75.1 million.
The Company also has the ability to finance home sales, inventory purchases and rental home purchases. The Company has a $35 million revolving line of credit for the financing of homes that was not utilized at December 31, 2025, revolving credit facilities totaling $93.6 million to finance inventory purchases, that were not utilized at December 31, 2025 and $44.0 million available on our lines of credit secured by rental homes and rental homes leases.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $72.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities of $23.8 million. The Company operated 145 communities (including 142 communities in which the Company owned either a 100% interest or a majority interest and three communities owned by the Company’s joint ventures with Nuveen), of which 63 are unencumbered. Except for the 30 communities in the borrowing base for our unsecured credit facility, these unencumbered communities can be used to raise additional funds. Our marketable securities, unencumbered properties, and lines of credit provide the Company with additional liquidity. The Company holds a 40% equity interest in the entities formed under its joint ventures with Nuveen, which owns three newly developed communities that are unencumbered.
The Company’s focus is on real estate investments. The Company has historically financed purchases of real estate primarily through mortgages. During 2025, total investment property, including rental homes, increased 12% or $200.3 million. See Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our acquisitions and Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for related debt transactions. The Company continues to evaluate acquisition opportunities. The funds for these acquisitions (including the Company’s 40% share of acquisition costs that may be incurred pursuant to its joint ventures with Nuveen Real Estate) may come from bank borrowings, proceeds from the DRIP, and private placements or public offerings of debt, Common Stock or Preferred Stock, including under the September 2024 Common ATM Program or the 2025 Preferred ATM Program or any other at-the-market sale programs that the Company may commence. To the extent that funds or appropriate properties are not available, fewer acquisitions will be made.
| -51- |
The Company owned approximately 10,900 rental homes, not including rental homes in the joint venture communities, or approximately 41% of our total homesites as of December 31, 2025. During 2025, our rental home portfolio increased by a net of 571 homes and we sold 163 rental homes, representing a net increase of $65.4 million. The Company markets these rental homes for sale to existing residents. The Company estimates that in 2026 it will order approximately 800 manufactured homes to use as rental units at its properties for a total invoice cost of approximately $60 million. Rental home rates on new homes range from approximately $850 to $2,000 per month, including lot rent, depending on size, location and market conditions. During 2025, the Company also invested approximately $49 million in other improvements to its communities.
The following table summarizes cash flow activity for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):
| 2025 | 2024 | 2023 | ||||||||||
| Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities | $ | 81,973 | $ | 81,601 | $ | 120,077 | ||||||

| Net Increase (Decrease) in Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash | $ | (27,885 | ) | $ | 44,374 | $ | 23,561 | |||||
Net cash provided by operating activities remained relatively stable from 2025 compared to 2024. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $38.5 million in 2024 primarily due to an increase in Community NOI and an increase in inventory.
Net cash used in investing activities increased by $69.3 million in 2025, primarily due to the purchase of five communities, investment property and equipment and additions to land development. Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $25.7 million in 2024, primarily due to the decrease in purchase of investment property and equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $3.3 million in 2025 to $99.3 million. The Company issued and sold 2.6 million shares of its Common Stock during 2025 through the September 2024 Common ATM Program, raising net proceeds of approximately $44.1 million. The Company also received $9.3 million, including dividends reinvested, through the DRIP. In addition, the Company issued and sold 93,000 shares of its Series D Preferred Stock during 2025 through the Preferred ATM Programs, raising net proceeds of approximately $2.0 million. During 2025, the Company distributed to our common shareholders a total of $74.8 million, including dividends reinvested. In addition, the Company also paid $20.5 million in preferred dividends during 2025. The Company also made principal payments on its mortgages and loans, net of new debt financing, totaling $120.4 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $33.6 million in 2024 to $102.6 million. The Company issued and sold 12.5 million shares of its Common Stock during 2024 through the Common ATM Programs, raising net proceeds of approximately $220.6 million. The Company also received $10.2 million, including dividends reinvested, through the DRIP. In addition, the Company issued and sold 1.2 million shares of its Series D Preferred Stock during 2024 through the 2023 Preferred ATM Program, raising net proceeds of approximately $28.0 million. During 2024, the Company distributed to our common shareholders a total of $62.3 million, including dividends reinvested. In addition, the Company also paid $19.2 million in preferred dividends during 2024. The Company also made principal payments on its mortgages and loans, net of new debt financing, totaling $77.7 million.
Cash flows were primarily used for capital improvements, payment of dividends, purchase of inventory and rental homes, loans to customers for the sales of manufactured homes, and expansion of existing communities. The Company meets maturing mortgage obligations by using a combination of positive cash flows and refinancing. The dividend payments were primarily made from cash flows from operations. Excluding expansions and rental home purchases, the Company is budgeting approximately $30 to $40 million in capital improvements for 2026.
The Company’s significant commitments and contractual obligations relate to its mortgages, loans payable and other indebtedness, acquisitions of manufactured home communities, retirement benefits, and the lease on its corporate offices as described in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
| -52- |
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had total assets of $1.7 billion and total liabilities of $791.8 million. Our net debt (net of cash and cash equivalents) to total market capitalization as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately 28% and 21%, respectively. Our net debt, less securities (net of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities) to total market capitalization as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately 27% and 19%, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had six mortgages totaling $38.2 million due within the next 12 months.
The Company believes that cash on hand, funds generated from operations, the DRIP and capital markets, the funds available on the lines of credit, together with the ability to finance and refinance its properties will provide sufficient funds to adequately meet its obligations and generate funds for new investments over the next several years.
Contractual Obligations
The Company has investments in entities formed under its joint venture relationship with Nuveen Real Estate which are accounted for under the equity method of accounting as we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating and financial decisions for the joint venture entities. The terms of the joint venture arrangements require the Company to fund 40% and Nuveen to fund 60% of the total capital contributions made by the members. See Item 2 – “Properties” and Note 5, “Investment in Joint Ventures,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Our other primary contractual obligations relate to our loans and mortgages payable and other indebtedness, our operating lease obligations and our obligations regarding the financing of our home sales. See Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, Note 7 “Loans and Mortgages Payable”, Note 10 “Related Party Transactions and Other Matters” and Note 14 “Commitments, Contingencies and Legal Matters” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Item 7A – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As of December 31, 2025, we were exposed to risks associated with adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. The Company’s principal market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The Company’s future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevalent market interest rates. Many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors that are beyond the Company’s control contribute to interest rate risk. The Company mitigates this risk by maintaining prudent amounts of leverage, minimizing capital costs and interest expense while continuously evaluating all available debt and equity resources and following established risk management policies and procedures, which may include the periodic use of derivatives. The Company’s primary strategy in entering into derivative contracts is to minimize the variability that changes in interest rates could have on its future cash flows. The Company generally employs derivative instruments that effectively convert a portion of its variable rate debt to fixed rate debt. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

All mortgage loans are at fixed rates. The Company has approximately $5.1 million in variable rate loans payable. If short-term interest rates increased or decreased by 1%, interest expense would have increased or decreased by approximately $51,000.
In its investment portfolio, the Company has invested in equity securities of other REITs and is primarily exposed to market price risk from adverse changes in market rates and conditions. The Company’s marketable securities investments was 1.1% of undepreciated assets as of December 31, 2025. Other than purchasing marketable equity securities through automatic dividend reinvestments, the Company has not made any purchases of REIT securities during 2023, 2024 and 2025 and the Company does not intend to increase its investment in the REIT securities portfolio. All securities are carried at fair value.

Item 9A – Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to give reasonable assurances to the timely collection, evaluation and disclosure of information that would potentially be subject to disclosure under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder as of December 31, 2025.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
| (a) | Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting |
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because of its inherent limitations, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Management assessed the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. In 2025, Management retained the services of DLA, LLC, an independent firm, to assist management in its assessment of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. This assessment was based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) (2013 framework). Management directed and supervised the assessment and is solely responsible for the design, implementation, evaluation, and conclusions regarding the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025.
PKF O’Connor Davies, LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, has issued their report on their audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, a copy of which is included herein.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
UMH Properties, Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited UMH Properties, Inc.’s (the “Company”) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control–Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control–Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of income (loss), shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and our report dated February 25, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
UMH Properties, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control–Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated February 25, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to those charged with governance and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there were no critical audit matters.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The
Company prepares its financial statements under the accrual basis of accounting, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All the Company’s subsidiaries are
A subsidiary of the Company is the managing member of the Company’s joint ventures with Nuveen Real Estate.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the consolidated balance sheets and revenue and expenses for the years then ended. These estimates and assumptions include the allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of inventory, depreciation, valuation of securities, accounting for land development, reserves and accruals, and stock compensation expense. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.
Investment Property and Equipment and Depreciation
Property
and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation for Sites and Buildings is computed principally on the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (ranging from
| -75- |
The Company applies Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-10, Property, Plant & Equipment (“ASC 360-10”) to measure impairment in real estate investments. The Company’s primary indicator of potential impairment is based on net operating income trends year over year. Rental properties are individually evaluated for impairment when conditions exist which may indicate that it is probable that the sum of expected future cash flows (on an undiscounted basis without interest) from a rental property is less than the carrying value under its historical net cost basis. These expected future cash flows consider factors such as future operating income, trends and prospects as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. Upon determination that an other than temporary impairment has occurred, rental properties are reduced to their fair value. For properties to be disposed of, an impairment loss is recognized when the fair value of the property, less the estimated cost to sell, is less than the carrying amount of the property measured at the time there is a commitment to sell the property and/or it is actively being marketed for sale. A property to be disposed of is reported at the lower of its carrying amount or its estimated fair value, less its cost to sell. Subsequent to the date that a property is held for disposition, depreciation expense is not recorded.
The
Company conducted a comprehensive review of all real estate asset classes in accordance with ASC 360-10-35-21. The process entailed the
analysis of property for instances where the net book value exceeded the estimated fair value. The Company reviewed its operating properties
in light of the requirements of ASC 360-10 and determined that, as of December 31, 2025,
Acquisitions
The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) and allocates the purchase price of the property based upon the fair value of the assets acquired, which generally consist of land, site and land improvements, buildings and improvements and rental homes. The Company allocates the purchase price of an acquired property generally determined by internal evaluation as well as third-party appraisal of the property obtained in conjunction with the purchase.
In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805), Clarifying the Definition of a Business”. ASU 2017-01 seeks to clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, intangible assets and consolidation. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The amendments should be applied prospectively on or after the effective dates. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2017, on a prospective basis. The Company evaluated its acquisitions and has determined that its acquisitions of its manufactured home communities during 2025 should be accounted for as acquisition of assets. As such, transaction costs, primarily consisting of broker fees, transfer taxes, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional and consulting fees, related to acquisitions are capitalized as part of the cost of the acquisitions, which is then subject to a purchase price allocation based on relative fair value. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2017-01, the Company’s acquisitions were considered an acquisition of a business and therefore, the acquisition costs were expensed.
Investment in Joint Ventures
The Company accounts for its investment in entities formed under its joint ventures with Nuveen Real Estate under the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures. The Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the operating and financial decisions of the joint venture entities. Under the equity method of accounting, the cost of an investment is adjusted for the Company’s share of the equity in net income or loss from the date of acquisition, reduced by distributions received and increased by contributions made. The income or loss is allocated in accordance with the provisions of the operating agreement. The carrying value of the investment in the joint ventures are reviewed for other than temporary impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate a possible impairment. Financial condition, operational performance, and other economic trends are among the factors that are considered in evaluation of the existence of impairment indicators (See Note 5).
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and investments with an original maturity of three months or less. The Company maintains its cash in bank accounts in amounts that may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts in the past. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents approximates their current carrying amounts since all such items are short-term in nature.
| -76- |
Marketable Securities
Investments
in marketable securities consist of marketable common and preferred stock securities of other REITs. These marketable securities are
all publicly traded and purchased on the open market, through private transactions or through dividend reinvestment plans. The
Company normally holds REIT securities on a long-term basis and has the ability and intent to hold securities to recovery, therefore
as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, gains or losses on the sale of securities are based on average cost and are accounted for on a
trade date basis. As of December 31, 2025, the securities portfolio represented
Inventory of Manufactured Homes
Inventory of manufactured homes is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value and is determined by the specific identification method. All inventory is considered finished goods.
Accounts and Notes Receivables
The
Company’s accounts, notes and other receivables are stated at their outstanding balance and reduced by an allowance for uncollectible
accounts. The Company evaluates the recoverability of its receivables whenever events occur or there are changes in circumstances such
that management believes it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the notes
receivable or lease agreements. The collectability of notes receivable is measured based on the present value of the expected future
cash flow discounted at the notes receivable effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the notes receivable is collateral
dependent. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the reserves for uncollectible accounts, notes and other receivables were $
The
Company accounts for its receivables in accordance with ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326):
Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 requires that entities use a new forward looking “expected
loss” model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for credit losses. The measurement of expected credit
losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported

Unamortized Financing Costs
Costs
incurred in connection with obtaining mortgages and other financings and refinancings are deferred and presented in the consolidated
balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis
which approximates the effective interest method over the term of the related obligations, and included as a component of interest expense.
Unamortized costs are charged to expense upon prepayment of the obligation. Upon amendment of the line of credit or refinancing of mortgage
debt, unamortized deferred financing fees are accounted for in accordance with ASC 470-50-40, Modifications and Extinguishments. As of
December 31, 2025 and 2024, accumulated amortization amounted to $

Leases
The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, “Leases.” Our primary source of revenue is generated from lease agreements for our sites and homes, where we are the lessor. These leases are generally for one-year or month-to-month terms and renewable by mutual agreement from us and the resident, or in some cases, as provided by jurisdictional statute.
The
Company is the lessee in other arrangements, primarily for our corporate office expiring

Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for its Sales of Manufactured Homes in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (ASC 606). For transactions in the scope of ASC 606, we recognize revenue when control of goods or services transfers to the customer, in the amount that we expect to receive for the transfer of goods or provision of services.
Rental and related income is generated primarily from lease agreements for our sites and homes. The lease component of these agreements is accounted for under ASC 842 “Leases.” The non-lease components of our lease agreements consist primarily of utility reimbursements, which are accounted for with the site lease as a single lease under ASC 842.
| -78- |
Revenue from sales of manufactured homes is recognized in accordance with the core principle of ASC 606, at the time of closing when control of the home transfers to the customer. After closing of the sale transaction, we generally do not have any remaining performance obligations.
Interest income is primarily from notes receivables for the previous sales of manufactured homes. Interest income on these receivables is accrued based on the unpaid principal balances of the underlying loans on a level yield basis over the life of the loans.
Dividend income and gain (loss) on sales of marketable securities are from our investments in marketable securities and are presented separately but are not in the scope of ASC 606.
Other income primarily consists of brokerage commissions for arranging for the sale of a home by a third party and other miscellaneous income. This income is recognized when the transactions are completed and our performance obligations have been fulfilled.
Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period ( million, million and million in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively). Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the weighted average number of net shares that would be issued upon exercise of stock options pursuant to the treasury stock method. In periods with a net loss, the basic loss per share equals the diluted loss per share as all Common Stock equivalents are excluded from the per share calculation because they are anti-dilutive. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Common Stock equivalents resulting from employee stock options to purchase million shares of Common Stock amounted to shares, which were included in the computation of Diluted Net Income per Share. For the year ended December 31, 2024, Common Stock equivalents resulting from employee stock options to purchase million shares of Common Stock amounted to shares, which were included in the computation of Diluted Net Income per Share. For the year ended December 31, 2023, employee stock options to purchase million shares of Common Stock were excluded from the computation of Diluted Net Loss per Share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
The Company accounts for awards of stock, stock options and restricted stock in accordance with ASC 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation. ASC 718-10 requires that compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and amortized over the service period (generally equal to the vesting period). The compensation cost for stock option grants are determined by using option pricing models, intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date less estimated forfeitures. The compensation cost for restricted stock are recognized based on the fair value of the restricted stock awards less estimated forfeitures. The fair value of restricted stock awards are equal to the fair value of the Company’s stock on the grant date. Compensation costs for option grants and restricted stock awards included in general and administrative expenses of $ million, $ million and $ million have been recognized in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Compensation costs for option grants and restricted stock awards capitalized to land development were $ million, $ million and $ for 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During 2025, 2024 and 2023, compensation costs included a one-time charge of $, $ and $, respectively, for restricted stock and stock option grants awarded to a participant who was of retirement age and therefore the entire amount of measured compensation cost has been recognized at grant date. Included in Note 8 to these consolidated financial statements are the assumptions and methodology used to calculate the fair value of stock options and restricted stock awards.
Income Tax
| -79- |
In December 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the TCJA), Code Section 199A, was added to the Code and became effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026. Under the TCJA, subject to certain income limitations, individual taxpayers and trusts and estates may deduct 20% of the aggregate amount of qualified REIT dividends they receive from their taxable income. Qualified REIT dividends do not include any portion of a dividend received from a REIT that is classified as a capital gain dividend or qualified dividend income. While initially scheduled to expire in 2025, recent legislation has made this deduction permanent.
The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, that, among other things, defines a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. Based on its evaluation, the Company determined that it has no uncertain tax positions and no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2024. The Company records interest and penalties relating to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as interest expense. As of December 31, 2025, the tax years 2022 through and including 2025 remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. There are currently no federal tax examinations in progress.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the prior years have been reclassified to conform to the financial statement presentation for the current year.
Other Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On November 4, 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2024-03 - Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income- Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). ASU 2024-03 requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities (PBEs). The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and should be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company anticipates making the required disclosures beginning with its Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2027.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 5- INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES
In
December 2021, the Company and Nuveen Real Estate (“Nuveen” or “Nuveen Real Estate”), established a joint
venture for the purpose of acquiring manufactured housing and/or recreational vehicle communities that are under development and/or
newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. The terms of the initial joint venture entity were set forth in a
Limited Liability Company Agreement dated as of December 8, 2021 (the “2021 LLC Agreement”) entered into between a
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of Nuveen. The 2021 LLC Agreement provided for the parties to initially fund

Under
the terms of the 2021 LLC Agreement, after December 8, 2024 or, if later, the second anniversary of the acquisition and placing in
service of a manufactured housing or recreational vehicle community, Nuveen will have a right to initiate the sale of one or more of
the communities owned by the joint venture entity. If Nuveen elects to initiate such a sale process, the Company may exercise a
right of first refusal to acquire Nuveen’s interest in the community or communities to be sold for a purchase price
corresponding to the greater of the appraised value of such communities or the amount required to provide a
The
2021 LLC Agreement between the Company and Nuveen provided that until the capital contributions to the joint venture are fully
funded or the joint venture is terminated, the joint venture will be the exclusive vehicle for the Company to acquire any
manufactured housing communities and/or recreational vehicle communities that meet the joint venture’s investment guidelines.
These guidelines called for the joint venture to acquire manufactured housing and recreational vehicle communities that have been

The
2021 LLC Agreement provides that Nuveen will have the right to remove and replace the Company as managing member of the joint
venture and manager of the joint venture’s properties if the Company breaches certain obligations or certain events occur.
Upon such removal, Nuveen may elect to buy out the Company’s interest in the joint venture at
The 2021 LLC Agreement requires the Company to offer Nuveen the opportunity to have the joint venture acquire a manufactured housing community or recreational vehicle community that meets the investment guidelines.

During
the time since the joint venture with Nuveen was first established in 2021, the Company and Nuveen have continued to seek
opportunities to acquire additional manufactured housing and/or recreational vehicle communities that are under development and/or
newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. During 2022, the Company and Nuveen informally agreed that any future
acquisitions would be made by one or more new joint venture entities to be formed for that purpose and that the original joint
venture entity formed in December 2021 will not consummate additional acquisitions but will maintain its existing property
portfolio, consisting of the Sebring Square and Rum Runner communities. The Company and Nuveen also informally agreed that, unless
otherwise determined in connection with any specific future investment, capital for any such new joint venture entity would continue
to be funded
In November 2023, the Company expanded its relationship with Nuveen Real Estate and formed a second joint venture entity with
Nuveen. The new joint venture entity was established to, directly or through one or more subsidiaries, identify, source, originate,
acquire, hold, operate, sell, lease, mortgage, maintain, own, manage, finance, refinance, reposition, improve, renovate, develop,
redevelop, pledge, hedge, exchange, and otherwise deal in and with the rental of manufactured housing and/or recreational vehicle
communities that meet other investment guidelines. The terms of the new joint venture entity are set forth in a Limited Liability
Company Agreement dated as of November 29, 2023 (the “2023 LLC Agreement”) entered into between a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of Nuveen. The Company serves as managing member of this new joint venture entity and is
responsible for day-to-day operations of the joint venture entity and management of its properties, subject to obtaining approval of
Nuveen Real Estate for major decisions (including investments, dispositions, financings, major capital expenditures and annual
budgets). The Company receives property management oversight, development and other fees from the joint venture entity. Sixty-one

Any such voluntary early redemption by the Company will require payment of the applicable early redemption amount calculated in accordance with the Deed of Trust. The Company does not intend to redeem the 2027 Bonds. Upon the occurrence of an event of default or certain other events, including a delisting of the 2027 Bonds by the TASE, the Company may be required to effect an early repayment or redemption of all or a portion of the 2027 Bonds at their par value plus accrued and unpaid interest.

NOTE 8 – STOCK COMPENSATION PLAN
On May 31, 2023, the shareholders approved the UMH Properties, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2023 Plan”), authorizing the grant of options, restricted stock or other stock-based awards to participants. The maximum number of shares available for grant under the 2023 Plan is million shares. The maximum number of shares underlying awards that may be granted in any one year to a participant is shares. Option awards are exercisable after one year of continued employment or service to the Company from the date of grant and typically vest over five years, 20% per year on each anniversary date of grant. The option price shall not be below the fair market value at date of grant. On May 28, 2025, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the 2023 Plan which increased the shares of Common Stock available for future awards under the 2023 Plan by shares.
The 2023 Plan replaced the Company’s Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Award Plan (“A&R 2013 Plan”), which by its terms terminated with respect to new awards on June 13, 2023. Outstanding grants under the A&R 2013 Plan will continue to be subject to the terms of the A&R 2013 Plan. No future awards will be granted under the A&R 2013 Plan, except for those shares previously reserved for outstanding performance-based grants under the A&R 2013 Plan.
The Compensation Committee has the exclusive authority to administer and construe the 2023 Plan and shall determine, among other things: persons eligible for awards and who shall receive them; the terms and conditions of the awards; the time or times and conditions subject to which awards may become vested, deliverable, exercisable, or as to which any may apply, be accelerated or lapse; and amend or modify the terms and conditions of an award with the consent of the participant.
Generally, the term of any stock option may not be more than years from the date of grant. The option price may not be below the fair market value at date of grant. If and to the extent that an award made under the 2023 Plan is forfeited, expires unexercised, or settled in cash in lieu of Shares, such Shares shall, to the extent of such forfeiture, expiration, or cash settlement, be available for future grants of awards under the 2023 Plan.
The Company accounts for stock options and restricted stock in accordance with ASC 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation. ASC 718-10 requires that compensation cost for all stock awards be calculated and amortized over the service period (generally equal to the vesting period).

| ● | The assumed dividend yield is based on the Company’s expectation of an annual dividend rate for regular dividends over the estimated life of the option. | |
| ● | Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock over a period relevant to the related stock option grant. | |
| ● | The risk-free interest rate utilized is the interest rate on U.S. Government Bonds and Notes having the same life as the estimated life of the Company’s option awards. | |
| ● | Expected life of the options granted is estimated based on historical data reflecting actual hold periods. | |
| ● | Estimated forfeiture is based on historical data reflecting actual forfeitures. |

NOTE 15 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company follows ASC 825, Fair Value Measurements, for financial assets and liabilities recognized at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including marketable securities. The fair value of these certain financial assets and liabilities was determined using the following inputs at December 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):
| Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using | ||||||||||||||||
| Total | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) | |||||||||||||

| Total | $ | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
In addition to the Company’s investment in marketable securities at fair value, the Company is required to disclose certain information about fair values of its other financial instruments, as defined in ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments. Estimates of fair value are made at a specific point in time, based upon, where available, relevant market prices and information about the financial instrument. Such estimates do not include any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. All of the Company’s marketable securities have quoted market prices. However, for a portion of the Company’s other financial instruments, no quoted market value exists. Therefore, estimates of fair value are necessarily based on a number of significant assumptions (many of which involve events outside the control of management). Such assumptions include assessments of current economic conditions, perceived risks associated with these financial instruments and their counterparties, future expected loss experience and other factors. Given the uncertainties surrounding these assumptions, the reported fair values represent estimates only and, therefore, cannot be compared to the historical accounting model. Use of different assumptions or methodologies is likely to result in significantly different fair value estimates.
The
fair value of cash and cash equivalents and notes receivable approximates their current carrying amounts since all such items are short-term
in nature. The fair value of variable rate loans payable approximate their current carrying amounts since such amounts payable are at
approximately a weighted-average current market rate of interest. As of December 31, 2025, the estimated fair value of fixed rate mortgages
payable amounted to $
