Rhea-AI Filing Summary

UMH Properties, Inc. reported improved results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, driven by higher rental income and stronger community performance. Rental and related income rose to $59.5M from $54.6M, aided by acquisitions, rent increases and higher occupancy.

Community Net Operating Income increased to $34.2M from $31.5M, as same-property occupancy climbed to 89.0% and rental rates increased 5.0%. Net income attributable to common shareholders improved to $2.6M, or $0.03 per share, compared with a small loss a year earlier.

Operating cash flow strengthened to $20.8M, while cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaled $46.0M at period-end. The company owned 145 manufactured home communities with about 27,100 developed homesites, including roughly 10,400 occupied rental homes with 94.6% rental-home occupancy.

Insights

UMH shows steady rental-driven growth, but higher interest expense tempers earnings.

UMH Properties expanded rental and related income to $59.5M and lifted Community NOI to $34.2M. These gains came from higher rents, better occupancy, and prior-year acquisitions, consistent with a manufactured-housing REIT focused on long-term cash generation.

Same-property NOI rose 7%, supported by a 110 basis point occupancy increase to 89.0% and rental rate growth of 5.0%. However, interest expense climbed to $9.1M, reflecting a higher debt load and rate environment, partly offsetting operating improvements at the earnings line.

Operating cash flow of $20.8M versus $12.8M a year earlier indicates better cash conversion, while cash and restricted cash of $46.0M provide liquidity for expansions and rental home investments. Future filings will clarify how continued rent increases and occupancy gains balance against debt costs.

Community Net Operating Income financial
"The Company’s Community NOI for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 is calculated as follows"
Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders financial
"We assess and measure our overall operating results based upon FFO, an industry performance measure"
qualified opportunity zone fund financial
"During 2022, the Company also formed a qualified opportunity zone fund to acquire, develop and redevelop manufactured housing communities"
at-the-market offering financial
"entered into a new equity distribution agreement under which the Company may offer and sell shares in at the market offerings"
An at-the-market offering is a method companies use to sell new shares of stock directly into the open market over time, rather than all at once. This allows them to raise money gradually, similar to selling small pieces of a product instead of a large batch. For investors, it means the company can access funding more flexibly, but it may also increase the supply of shares and influence the stock’s price.
Series B Bonds financial
"the Company issued approximately $80.2 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.85% Series B Bonds Due 2030"
Series B bonds are a specific class or tranche of debt that a borrower issues after an earlier series; they carry their own interest rate, maturity date and repayment priority. For investors, the label signals where these bonds sit in the repayment order and what return and risk to expect—think of creditors standing in a numbered line for repayment, where later-numbered series may get paid after earlier ones and often offer higher interest to compensate for greater risk.

UMH PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2026 (UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

UMH Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and its subsidiaries (“we”, “our”, “us” or “the Company”) operates as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) deriving its income primarily from real estate rental operations. As of March 31, 2026, 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. 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 contains a total of approximately 27,100 developed homesites, of which 11,200 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 Company, through its wholly-owned taxable subsidiary, UMH Sales and Finance, Inc. (“S&F”), sells manufactured homes to residents and prospective residents in our communities. Inherent in the operations of manufactured home communities are site vacancies. S&F was established to enhance the value of the communities by helping to fill these vacancies through the sales of homes. The Company holds a 77% controlling interest in its qualified opportunity zone fund which it created in 2022 to acquire, develop and redevelop manufactured housing communities located in areas designated as Qualified Opportunity Zones by the U.S. Treasury Department to encourage long-term investment in economically distressed areas. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include S&F and all of its other wholly-owned subsidiaries and its qualified opportunity zone fund. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The primary focus of our business is the ownership and operation of our manufactured home communities – leasing of manufactured homesites and manufactured homes in our communities to residents. The sales of homes are integrated with the leasing of these manufactured homes and homesites. Management views the Company’s business as a single segment based on its method of internal reporting in addition to its allocation of capital and resources. Capital and resources are allocated to further the goal of maintaining and increasing occupancy and net operating income in our communities. Our chief executive officer, with the assistance of our chief operating officer, is the principal decision-maker regarding allocation of resources. These decisions are based on the occupancy of the communities and community net operating income, not based on the performance of home sales. Sales of homes are necessary to maintain and increase occupancy at our communities. There are no longer dealers selling homes into our communities. We primarily order homes to fill vacant sites in the communities. These homes are either rented or sold, based on the needs of the potential residents. Although certain components of the sales operation are tracked (sales, cost of sales, etc.), separate discrete financial information for the entire sales operation is not available. Most of the personnel costs, office expenses, maintenance and other expenses are borne by the community and cannot be allocated. The components of the sales operation play no material role in decisions about resources to be allocated. Resources are allocated to maintaining and increasing occupancy and net operating income in our communities.

 

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) 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. The Company is subject to franchise taxes in some of the states in which the Company owns property.

The interim consolidated financial statements furnished herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

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.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts in the financial statements for the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the statement presentation for the current periods.

 

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 values of the investment in the joint ventures is 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 4).

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 and a ground lease at one community. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities of $2.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively, are included in prepaid expenses and other assets and accrued liabilities and deposits on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Future minimum lease payments under these leases over the remaining lease terms are as follows (in thousands):

 

      
2026  $345 
2027   257 
2028   111 
2029   111 
2030   111 
Thereafter   18,281 
      
Total Lease Payments  $19,216 

 

The weighted average remaining lease term for these leases is 166 years. The right of use assets and lease liabilities was calculated using an interest rate of 5%.

 

Restricted Cash

 

The Company’s restricted cash consists of amounts primarily held in deposit for tax, insurance and repair escrows held by lenders in accordance with certain debt agreements. Restricted cash is included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

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 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.

 

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 have no remaining performance obligation.

 

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.

 

Notes Receivables

 

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 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 reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had notes receivable of $102.2 million and $100.0 million, net of the fair value adjustment of $1.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively. Notes receivables are presented as a component of notes and other receivables, net on our consolidated balance sheets. These receivables represent balances owed to us for previously completed performance obligations for sales of manufactured homes.

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 2 – NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

Basic Net Income (Loss) per Share is calculated by dividing Net Income (Loss) by the weighted average shares outstanding for the period. Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share is calculated by dividing Net Income (Loss) less Income (Loss) Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, and when dilutive, the potential net shares that would be issued upon exercise of stock options pursuant to the treasury stock method. In periods with a net loss, the diluted loss per share equals the basic loss per share as all common stock equivalents are excluded from the per share calculation because they are anti-dilutive.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, common stock equivalents resulting from employee stock options to purchase 6.3 million shares of common stock amounted to 373,000 shares, which were included in the computation of Diluted Net Income per Share. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, common stock equivalents of 944,000 shares were excluded from the computation of Diluted Net Loss per Share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

NOTE 3 – MARKETABLE SECURITIES

 

The Company’s marketable securities consist primarily of marketable common and preferred stock of other REITs with a fair value of $26.4 million as of March 31, 2026, which represents 1.2% of undepreciated assets (total assets excluding accumulated depreciation). Other than purchasing marketable equity securities through automatic dividend reinvestments, the Company has not made any purchases of REIT securities during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and the Company does not intend to increase its investment in the REIT securities portfolio. The REIT securities portfolio provides the Company with additional diversification, liquidity and income.

 

13

 

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company had a net gain of $2.7 million on our securities portfolio consisting of an increase in fair value of marketable securities of $39.1 million partially offset by a loss on marketable securities of $36.4 million. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had total net unrealized losses of $1.7 million in its REIT securities portfolio. The Company held five securities that had unrealized losses as of March 31, 2026.

 

NOTE 4- 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 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.

 

14

 

 

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 and currently has 32 homes on-site of which 15 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.

 

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”.

NOTE 5 - OPPORTUNITY ZONE FUND

 

In July 2022, the Company invested $8.0 million, representing a portion of the capital gain the Company recognized as a result of the Monmouth Real Estate Investment Corp. (“MREIC”) merger, in the UMH OZ Fund, LLC (“OZ Fund”), a new entity formed by the Company. The OZ Fund was created 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. 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 when earned and realized (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. On August 10, 2022, the Company, through the OZ Fund, acquired Garden View Estates, located in Orangeburg, South Carolina, for approximately $5.2 million. On January 19, 2023, the Company, through the OZ Fund, acquired Mighty Oak, located in Albany, Georgia, for approximately $3.7 million. As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s investment in the OZ Fund represented 77% of the total capital contributed to the OZ Fund and is consolidated in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Other investors in the OZ Fund include certain officers, directors and employees of the Company, who invested on the same terms as other investors.

Series A Bonds

 

On February 6, 2022, the Company issued $102.7 million of its new 4.72% Series A Bonds due 2027, or the 2027 Bonds, in an offering to investors in Israel. The Company received $98.7 million, net of offering expenses. The 2027 Bonds are unsecured obligations of the Company denominated in Israeli shekels (NIS) and were issued pursuant to a Deed of Trust dated January 31, 2022 between the Company and Reznik Paz Nevo Trusts Ltd., an Israeli trust company, as trustee. The 2027 Bonds pay interest at a rate of 4.72% per year. Interest on the 2027 Bonds is payable semi-annually on August 31, 2022, and on February 28 and August 31 of the years 2023-2026 (inclusive) and on the final maturity date of February 28, 2027. The principal and interest will be linked to the U.S. Dollar. In the event of a future downgrade by two or more notches in the rating of the 2027 Bonds or a failure by the Company to comply with certain covenants in the Deed of Trust, the interest rate on the 2027 Bonds will be subject to increase. However, any such increases, in the aggregate, would not exceed 1.25% per annum. As of March 31, 2026, the Company is in compliance with these covenants.

 

Under the Deed of Trust, the Company has the right to redeem the 2027 Bonds, in whole or in part, at any time on or after 60 days from February 9, 2022, the date on which the 2027 Bonds were listed for trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (the “TASE”). 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. The Deed of Trust permits the Company, subject to certain conditions, to issue additional 2027 Bonds without obtaining approval of the holders of the 2027 Bonds.

 

The 2027 Bonds are general unsecured obligations of the Company and rank equal in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future unsecured indebtedness. The Deed of Trust includes certain customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain ratios of debt to net operating income, to shareholders’ equity and to earnings, and customary events of default. The 2027 Bonds were offered solely to investors outside the United States and were not offered to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933).

Series B Bonds

 

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 Company received $75.1 million, net of offering discounts, fees and other transaction costs. The Series B Bonds were issued pursuant to a Deed of Trust between the Company and Reznik Paz Nevo Trusts Ltd., an Israeli trust company, as trustee (the “Trustee”), dated July 18, 2025 (the “Series B Deed of Trust”). The Series B Bonds are unsecured obligations of the Company denominated in NIS and rank pari passu with the Series A Bonds and all other unsecured obligations of the Company.

 

Principal of the Series B Bonds will be payable on June 30, 2030. The Company will pay interest on the Series B Bonds at a rate of 5.85% per annum, payable semi-annually on June 30 and December 31 of each year, beginning December 31, 2025 and continuing through the maturity date. Payments of principal and interest will be made in NIS and will be adjusted for changes in the exchange rate of the U.S. Dollar to the NIS as of each payment date. In the event of any future downgrade by two or more notches in the rating of the Series B Bonds (or if the Series B Bonds cease to be rated due to a failure by the Company to comply with certain reporting and other obligations under the Series B Deed of Trust), the interest rate on the Series B Bonds will be subject to increase by up to 1.25% per annum. In addition, the interest rate on the Series B Bonds will be subject to increase by up to 0.5% per annum upon any failure by the Company to comply with certain financial covenants in the Series B Deed of Trust. The maximum aggregate additional interest payable on the Series B Bonds as a result of any such downgrades (or cessation of rating) and/or any such failures to comply with financial covenants would not exceed a rate of 1.5% per annum. Following any such increase in the interest rate, in the event of a subsequent upgrade or reinstatement of rating and/or compliance with such financial covenants, the interest rate will be reduced. As of March 31, 2026, the Company is in compliance with these covenants.

 

The Series B Deed of Trust includes certain customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring the Company to maintain specified ratios of debt to net operating income, to shareholders’ equity and to earnings, and customary events of default. In addition, if the Company is not in compliance with one or more of the financial covenants, it will be restricted from making dividend payments other than those necessary to comply with the requirements to maintain its status as a REIT for income tax purposes. The covenants and events of default in the Series B Deed of Trust are substantially similar to those in the Series A Deed of Trust except that the threshold amount for an event of default involving the appointment of a receiver over the Company or its assets has been lowered from 50% to 35% of total assets of the Company.

 

Under the Series B Deed of Trust, the Company has the right to redeem the Series B Bonds, in whole or in part, at any time on or after 60 days from July 22, 2025, the date on which the Series B Bonds were listed for trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.

On March 16, 2026, the Company paid total cash dividends of $19.1 million or $0.225 per share to common shareholders of record as of the close of business on February 17, 2026, of which $1.1 million was reinvested in the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (“DRIP”). On April 1, 2026, the Company declared a dividend of $0.225 per share to be paid June 15, 2026 to common shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 15, 2026.

On September 22, 2025 the Board of Directors increased our common stock Repurchase Program (the “Repurchase Program”) so that the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $100 million in the aggregate of the Company’s common stock. Purchases under the Repurchase Program may 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 will 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. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock.

Common Stock At-The-Market Sales Program

 

On September 16, 2024, the Company terminated the use of its successful then-existing at-the-market sale program for its common stock and entered into a new equity distribution agreement (“September 2024 Common ATM Program”) with BMO Capital Markets Corp., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, B. Riley Securities, Inc., Compass Point Research & Trading, LLC, and Janney Montgomery Scott LLC, as Distribution Agents, under which the Company may offer and sell shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.10 par value per share, having an aggregate sales price of up to $150 million from time to time through the Distribution Agents, as agents or principals.

Preferred Stock At-The-Market Sales Program

 

On March 5, 2025, the Company terminated the use of its successful then-existing at-the-market sale program for its Series D Preferred Stock and entered into an at market issuance sales agreement (the “2025 Preferred ATM Program”) with B. Riley, as distribution agent, under which the Company may offer and sell shares of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $100 million from time to time through B. Riley, as agent or principal. Sales of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock under the 2025 Preferred ATM Program, if any, will be in “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including, without limitation, sales made directly on or through the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) or on any other existing trading market for the Series D Preferred Stock, as applicable, or to or through a market maker or any other method permitted by law, including, without limitation, negotiated transactions and block trades.

NOTE 8 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

 

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 is determined using option pricing models, intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date less estimated forfeitures. The compensation expense for restricted stock is recognized based on the fair value of the restricted stock awards less estimated forfeitures. The fair value of restricted stock awards is equal to the fair value of the Company’s stock on the grant date. Compensation costs of $1.5 million, of which $371,000 were capitalized, have been recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Compensation costs of $3.1 million, of which $1.3 million were capitalized, have been recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

 

On January 21, 2026, the Company awarded a total of 28,000 shares of restricted stock to six employees under the Company’s 2023 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2023 Plan”). The grant date fair value of these restricted stock grants was $452,000. These grants vest ratably over 5 years.

 

On January 21, 2026, the Company awarded a total of 10,980 shares of common stock to nine members of our Board of Directors in payment of directors fees. The grant date fair value of these awards was $177,000.

 

22

 

 

On January 21, 2026, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of common stock to nine members of our Board of Directors under the Company’s 2023 Plan. The grant date fair value of these options amounted to approximately $308,000. These grants vest ratably over five years.

 

On January 30, 2026, the Company also awarded a total of 69,844 shares of restricted stock to four employees, pursuant to their employment agreements. The grant date fair value of these restricted stock grants was $1.1 million. These grants vest ratably over three years.

 

On March 24, 2026, the Company awarded a total of 12,429 shares of common stock to nine members of our Board of Directors in payment of directors fees. The grant date fair value of these awards was $177,000.

 

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants during the three months ended March 31, 2026:

 

   2026 
     
Dividend yield   5.34%
Expected volatility   27.43%
Risk-free interest rate   4.26%
Expected lives   10 
Estimated forfeitures   -0- 

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, one participant in the Company’s equity incentive plans exercised options to purchase a total of 10,000 shares of common stock at a weighted-average exercise price of $9.70 per share for total proceeds of $97,000. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised was $54,000.

 

As of March 31, 2026, there were options outstanding under the Company’s equity incentive plans to purchase 6.3 million shares, with an aggregate intrinsic value of $3.4 million. There were 1.8 million shares available for grant under the 2023 Plan.

 

NOTE 9 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

In accordance with ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” the Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including marketable securities. The fair value of these financial assets and liabilities was determined using the following inputs at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (in thousands):

 

   Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using 
       Quoted Prices   Significant     
       In Active   Other   Significant 
       Markets for   Observable   Unobservable 
       Identical Assets   Inputs   Inputs 
   Total   (Level 1)   (Level 2)   (Level 3) 
As of March 31, 2026:                    
Marketable Securities - Preferred stock  $792   $792   $    -0-   $   -0- 
Marketable Securities - Common stock   25,638    25,638    -0-    -0- 
Total  $26,430   $26,430   $-0-   $-0- 
                     
As of December 31, 2025:                    
Marketable Securities - Preferred stock  $633   $633   $-0-   $-0- 
Marketable Securities - Common stock   23,125    23,125    -0-    -0- 
Total  $23,758   $23,758   $-0-   $-0- 

 

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 approximate 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 March 31, 2026, the estimated fair value of fixed rate mortgages payable amounted to $557.3 million and the carrying value of fixed rate mortgages payable amounted to $559.8 million.

NOTE 10 – CONTINGENCIES, COMMITMENTS AND OTHER MATTERS

 

The Company is subject to claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that any such claim or litigation will have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, or results of operations of the Company.

 

The Company had an agreement with 21st Mortgage under which 21st Mortgage provided financing for home purchasers in the Company’s communities. The Company did not receive referral fees or other cash compensation under the agreement. If 21st Mortgage made loans to purchasers and those purchasers defaulted on their loans and 21st Mortgage repossessed the homes securing such loans, the Company agreed to purchase from 21st Mortgage each such repossessed home for a price equal to 80% to 95% of the amount under each such loan, subject to certain adjustments. As of March 31, 2026, the total loan balance under this agreement was approximately $1.8 million. Additionally, 21st Mortgage previously made loans to purchasers in certain communities we acquired. In conjunction with these acquisitions, the Company has agreed to purchase from 21st Mortgage each repossessed home, if those purchasers default on their loans. The purchase price ranges from 55% to 100% of the amount under each such loan, subject to certain adjustments. As of March 31, 2026, the total loan balance owed to 21st Mortgage with respect to homes in these acquired communities was approximately $389,000. This program was terminated on June 22, 2023. The Company’s repurchase obligations for the outstanding loans that were originated by 21st Mortgage remain in effect.

 

The Company entered into a Manufactured Home Retailer Agreement (the “MHRA”) with 21st Mortgage on January 24, 2023, under which 21st Mortgage provides financing for home purchasers in the Company’s communities. 21st Mortgage has no recourse against the Company under the MHRA except in instances where the Customer defaults before two scheduled monthly payments are paid by the purchaser and the default is based on any dispute between S&F and the purchaser surrounding the terms or execution of the purchase and sale of the home. Upon such a default, S&F is to take assignment of the loan from 21st Mortgage for the unpaid principal balance plus accrued interest. As of March 31, 2026, no loans have been originated under the MHRA.

 

S&F entered into a Chattel Loan Origination, Sale and Servicing Agreement (“COP Program”) with Triad Financial Services, effective January 1, 2016. Neither the Company, nor S&F, receive referral fees or other cash compensation under the agreement. If the loan is approved under the COP Program, then it is originated by Triad, purchased by S&F and then assigned by S&F to the Company. Included in Notes and Other Receivables is approximately $100.7 million of loans that the Company acquired under the COP Program as of March 31, 2026.

The Company and one of its subsidiaries are parties to a Limited Liability Company Agreement dated as of December 8, 2021 with an affiliate of Nuveen (the “2021 LLC Agreement”), which governs the initial joint venture entity between the Company and 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 Company is required to fund 40% of the committed capital and Nuveen is required to fund 60%. All such funding will be on a parity basis. Since the execution of the 2021 LLC Agreement, this joint venture entity has acquired two properties. The Company and Nuveen have continued to seek, and are continuing 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. The Company and Nuveen have 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 existing joint venture entity formed in December 2021 under the 2021 LLC Agreement will not consummate additional acquisitions but will maintain its existing property portfolio. 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 LLC Agreement entered into in 2021, except that the amounts of the parties’ respective capital commitments will be determined on a property-by-property basis. In 2023, the Company and Nuveen formed a second joint venture entity, governed by a new 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, focused on the development and operation of a new manufactured housing community located in Honey Brook, Pennsylvania. The community contains 113 manufactured home sites situated on approximately 61 acres. This community, named Honey Ridge, opened for occupancy in June 2025 and currently has 32 homes on-site, of which 15 have been sold. As with the 2021 LLC Agreement, capital contributions to the joint venture entity formed under the 2023 LLC Agreement for this project are funded 60% by Nuveen and 40% by the Company on a parity basis and the other terms (including restrictions on the Company’s right to acquire manufacturing housing communities that meet the 2023 LLC Agreement’s investment guidelines without first offering Nuveen an opportunity to participate in the acquisition) are similar to those set forth in the 2021 LLC Agreement (See Note 4).

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Overview

 

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included elsewhere herein and in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

The Company is a Maryland corporation that operates as a self-administered, self-managed REIT with 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 generally 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 manufactured homes to residents and prospective residents of our communities and for placement on customers’ privately-owned land. The Company also provides financing to home purchasers through its COP program with Triad Financial. During 2022, the Company also formed a qualified 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 currently holds a 77% interest in the qualified opportunity zone fund.

 

As of March 31, 2026, 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 11,200 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.

 

27

 

 

The primary focus of our business is the operation of our manufactured home communities - leasing of manufactured homesites and manufactured homes in our communities to residents. The sales of homes are integrated with the leasing of these manufactured homes and homesites. Management views the Company’s business as a single segment based on its method of internal reporting in addition to its allocation of capital and resources. Capital and resources are allocated to further the goal of maintaining and increasing occupancy and net operating income in our communities. Our chief executive officer, with the assistance of our chief operating officer, is the principal decision-maker regarding allocation of resources. These decisions are based on the occupancy of the communities and community net operating income, not based on the performance of home sales. Sales of homes are necessary to maintain and increase occupancy at our communities. We primarily order homes to fill vacant sites in the communities. These homes are either rented or sold, based on the needs of the potential residents. Although certain components of the sales operation are tracked (sales, cost of sales, etc.), separate discrete financial information for the entire sales operation is not available. Most of the personnel costs, office expenses, maintenance and other expenses are borne by the community and cannot be allocated. The components of the sales operation play no material role in decisions about resources to be allocated. Resources are allocated to maintaining and increasing occupancy and net operating income in our communities.

 

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.

 

The Company intends to continue to increase its real estate investments and investments in expansions. 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. This has resulted in increased occupancy rates and improved operating results. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, rental and related income increased 9% from the prior year period and Community Net Operating Income (“NOI”), as defined below, increased 8%. Same property NOI, which includes communities owned and operated as of January 1, 2025 (excluding Memphis Blues, Duck River Estates and River Bluff Estates), increased 7% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 over the prior year period driven by a 110 basis point increase in occupancy, to 89.0%, and rental rate increases of 5.0%. We have been positioning ourselves for future growth and will continue to seek opportunistic investments. In addition, on behalf of our joint venture arrangements with Nuveen Real Estate, we will seek opportunities to acquire manufactured home communities that are under development and/or newly developed and meet certain other investment guidelines. We will also seek additional opportunities, through our opportunity zone fund, to acquire communities that require substantial capital investment and are located in qualified opportunity zones.

 

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 the three months ended March 31, 2026, our portfolio of rental homes increased by 121 homes, net of rental home sales. Occupied rental homes represent approximately 44.2% of total occupied sites. Occupancy in rental homes continues to be strong and registered at 94.6% as of March 31, 2026. 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.

 

28

 

 

See PART I, Item 1 – Business in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for a more complete discussion of the economic and industry-wide factors relevant to the Company and the opportunities and challenges, and risks on which the Company is focused.

 

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

On a regular basis, management evaluates our assumptions, judgments and estimates. Management believes there have been no material changes to the items that we disclosed as our significant accounting policies and estimates under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

Supplemental 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”).

 

29

 

 

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.

 

The Company’s Community NOI for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 is calculated as follows (in thousands):

 

   Three Months Ended 
   3/31/26   3/31/25 
         
Rental and Related Income  $59,469   $54,574 
Less: Community Operating Expenses   (25,312)   (23,029)
Community NOI  $34,157   $31,545 

 

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.

 

30

 

 

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.

 

The Company’s FFO and Normalized FFO attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are calculated as follows (in thousands):

 

   Three Months Ended 
   3/31/26   3/31/25 
         
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Common Shareholders  $2,580   $(271)

Changes In Results Of Operations

 

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Common Shareholders increased $2.9 million from a net loss of $271,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, to net income of $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. This increase was due to an increase in Community NOI and a net gain on our securities portfolio partially offset by increases in interest expense and depreciation expense.

 

Rental and related income increased 9% from $54.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $59.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. This increase was due to acquisitions made in 2025, increases in rental rates and same property occupancy and additional rental homes. Same property occupancy has increased 110 basis points from 87.9% as of March 31, 2025 to 89.0% at March 31, 2026. Occupied rental homes increased 6% from approximately 9,900 homes at March 31, 2025 to 10,400 homes at March 31, 2026.

 

31

 

 

Community operating expenses increased 10% from $23.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $25.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. These increases were due to acquisitions made in 2025 and an increase in payroll and related costs, real estate taxes and water and sewer costs.

 

Community NOI increased 8% from $31.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $34.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. These increases were primarily due to increases in rental rates, occupancy and rental homes. The Company’s operating expense ratio (defined as community operating expenses divided by rental and related income) was 42.2% and 42.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively. 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 decreased 4% from $6.7 million, or 71 homes, for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $6.4 million, or 73 homes, for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The average sales price was $87,000 and $94,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Cost of sales of manufactured homes amounted to $4.1 million and $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The gross profit percentage was 36% and 35% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Selling expenses, which includes salaries, commissions, advertising and other miscellaneous expenses, amounted to $1.9 and $1.6 million million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Gain from the sales operations (defined as sales of manufactured homes, less cost of sales of manufactured homes, less selling expenses), excluding interest on the financing of inventory, amounted to $426,000 or 7% of total sales and $691,000 or 10% of total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Many of the costs associated with sales, such as salaries, and to an extent, advertising and promotion, are fixed.

 

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 decreased 15% from $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of gross revenue (total income plus interest, dividend and other income) were 7.4% and 9.4% at March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. These decreases were primarily due to a decrease in stock based compensation expense from $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

 

32

 

 

Depreciation expense increased 8% from $16.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $18.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. This increase was primarily due to the increase in rental homes and expansions during 2025 and 2026.

 

Interest income decreased 4% from $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. This decrease was primarily due to the decreased interest earned on our excess cash, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of notes receivable. The average balance of notes receivable was $102.7 and $90.4 million at March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company had a net gain of $2.7 million on our securities portfolio consisting of an increase in fair value of marketable securities of $39.1 million partially offset by a loss on marketable securities of $36.4 million. The Company had a decrease in the fair value of marketable securities of $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had total net unrealized losses of $1.7 million in its REIT securities portfolio.

 

Interest expense, including amortization of financing costs, increased 53% from $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $9.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The average balance of our total debt increased from $610.5 million at March 31, 2025 to $760.5 million at March 31, 2026. The weighted average interest rate on our total debt increased from 4.4% at March 31, 2025 to 4.9% at March 31, 2026, respectively.

 

Changes in Financial Condition

 

Total investment property increased 1% or $21.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026. In addition to adding 121 rental homes, net of 40 rental homes sold, to its communities during the most recent quarter, the Company is preparing sites for additional homes to be added during the year. Occupied rentals increased by 203 rental homes from December 31, 2025 to March 31, 2026. The Company’s occupancy rate on its rental homes portfolio increased 80 basis points and was 94.6% at March 31, 2026 as compared to 93.8% at December 31, 2025.

 

Marketable securities increased 11% or $2.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 due to the net increase in the fair value.

 

Land development costs increased 25% or $9.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 due to an increase in expansion projects. Since 2018, the Company has built 1,056 expansion sites in 16 communities. Occupancy levels at these sites are at approximately 54%. Once fully occupied, these sites will contribute to increased community operating income. The Company currently has approximately 1,044 expansion sites in the approval process, including one greenfield development in Coxsackie, NY for approximately 360 sites.

Mortgages payable, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, remained relatively stable during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

 

Loans payable, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, remained relatively stable during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s focus is on real estate investments, including investment in rental homes. 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. We anticipate that the liquidity demands of the recent properties acquired will be met by the operations of these acquisitions. The Company’s ability to generate cash adequate to meet these demands is dependent primarily on income from its real estate investments, the sale of real estate investments, 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 through its Common and Preferred ATM Programs.

 

In addition to cash generated through operations, the Company uses a variety of sources to fund its cash needs, including acquisitions. 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 ATM Programs. In order to provide financial flexibility to opportunistically access the capital markets, the Company implemented a September 2024 Common ATM Program which allows the Company to offer and sell shares of the Company’s common stock, having an aggregate sales price of up to $150 million, from time to time through the Distribution Agents. As of March 31, 2026, $44.6 million of common stock remained eligible for sale under the September 2024 Common ATM Program. Additionally, the Company implemented a 2025 Preferred ATM Program which allows the Company to offer and sell shares of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $100 million from time to time through B. Riley, as Distribution Agent. As of March 31, 2026, $97.5 million of Series D Preferred Stock remained eligible for sale under the 2025 Preferred ATM Program.

 

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 our opportunity zone fund, to acquire communities that require substantial capital investment and are located in qualified opportunity zones. In addition, on behalf of our joint venture 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 three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company issued and sold 66,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock through our 2025 Preferred ATM Program, at a weighted average price of $22.51 per share, generating gross proceeds and net proceeds, after offering expenses, of $1.5 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company did not sell any shares of common stock under our September 2024 Common ATM Program.

 

The Company also raised $2.4 million from the issuance of common stock in the DRIP during the three months ended March 31, 2026, which included dividend reinvestments of $1.1 million. Dividends paid on the common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $19.1 million, including the $1.1 million reinvested. Dividends paid on the Series D Preferred Stock for the three months ended March 31, 2026 totaled $5.2 million.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $20.8 million and $12.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $37.4 million, marketable securities of $26.4 million 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 approximately $128 million available on our revolving lines of credit for the financing of home sales and purchases of inventory and $55 million available on our line of credit secured by rental homes and rental homes leases.

 

The Company owns 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. Of the 142 majority owned communities, 60 are unencumbered. Except for 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.

 

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had total assets of $1.7 billion and total liabilities of $791.6 million. The Company’s net debt (net of unamortized debt issuance costs and cash and cash equivalents) to total market capitalization as of March 31, 2026 was approximately 31% and the Company’s net debt, less securities to total market capitalization as of March 31, 2026 was approximately 30%. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had seven mortgages totaling $49.6 million due within the next 12 months. The Company believes that it has the ability to meet its obligations and to generate funds for new investments.
