Continued successful management and reduction of general and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses as a percentage of net operating income for the year ended December 31, 2025were
5.6%-the lowestlevel in the past ten years for the Company and approximately halfthe average of other S&P 500 REITs.In
2025, we realized cost reductions of $51.3 million, or 30%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily from
cost-control and efficiency initiatives. Some of these cost savings are temporary in nature, and we anticipate that
approximately halfof the cost reduction achieved in 2025will continue in 2026.
Compared to the general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024, we expect to achieve a
savings of $76 millionof cumulative general and administrative expense in 2025and 2026based upon the midpoint of our
guidance range for 2026general and administrative expenses.
Dividend strategy to share net cash flows from operating activities with stockholders while retaining a significant portion for reinvestment

reduction from the quarterly dividend declared of $1.32for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
The decision to reduce the declared dividend per common share reflects our commitment to maintaining the strength of our
balance sheet, enhancing financial flexibility, and preserving liquidity of approximately $410 millionon an annual basis, which
will be used to support our 2026capital plan.
Significant net cash flows provided by operating activities after dividends retained for reinvestment aggregating $2.36 billionfor
the years ended December 31, 2021through 2025.
Dividend yield of 5.9% as of December 31, 2025and dividend payout ratio of 33%for the three months ended December 31,
