– Completed $107.7 Million of Net Investment Activity –

– Reaffirms Full Year 2021 AFFO Guidance in Range of $0.95 - $0.99 Per Share –

– During the Quarter, Raised Gross Proceeds of $203.6 Million through Follow On Offering –

NETSTREIT (NYSE:NTST) (the "Company"), today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.

"During the second quarter, we again generated strong results while benefiting from our strategic focus. Our portfolio remains 100% occupied, and through July, we have collected 100% of rents for eleven straight months. Importantly, we accomplished a significant milestone during the second quarter, completing a $200-plus million follow-on common equity offering and demonstrating our access to well-priced capital. With more than $200 million of high quality acquisitions completed in the first half of the year, and significant capacity on our balance sheet, we will continue to take advantage of attractive opportunities to deploy capital. As we look to the balance of the year, we believe NETSTREIT's unique focus on the highest quality net lease assets and our demonstrated sourcing methodologies, positions us well to continue to grow in 2021, and beyond," said Mark Manheimer, Chief Executive Officer of NETSTREIT.

SECOND QUARTER 2021 HIGHLIGHTS

Reported net loss per share of $(0.07), Core Funds from Operations ("Core FFO") per share of $0.18¹ and AFFO per share of $0.20¹ (see non-GAAP reconciliation attached)
The Company collected 100% of the second quarter rent payments and for the month of July 2021, resulting in eleven consecutive months of 100% rent collections

PORTFOLIO UPDATE

As of June 30, 2021, the NETSTREIT portfolio was comprised of 267 leases², contributing $55.3 million of annualized base rent³, with a weighted-average remaining lease term of 9.9 years, of which 69.9% were investment grade rated tenants and 13.5% were tenants with investment grade profiles (unrated tenants with more than $1.0 billion in annual sales and a debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio of less than 2.0x). The portfolio was 100.0% occupied as of June 30, 2021.

INVESTMENT ACTIVITY

During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company had total net investment activity of $107.7 million. The Company acquired 35 properties for approximately $116.7 million at an initial cash capitalization rate of 6.5%, inclusive of closing costs. A majority of the acquisitions closed late in the last month of the quarter resulting in the Company owning the assets for an average of approximately 19 days. Acquisitions completed during the quarter had a weighted-average remaining lease term of 9.7 years, and 72.8% of the properties are occupied by investment grade rated tenants and 20.5% occupied by tenants with investment grade profiles. The Company also provided $4.0 million of development funding in the second quarter, including funding to support two new developments for tenants with investment grade profiles.

The Company completed five dispositions for $13.0 million in total contractual sales proceeds, which equated to a 6.7% cash capitalization rate.

The transaction activity decreased total tenant count from 60 to 59 tenants, and decreased the portfolio's exposure to casual dining. The geographic and industry exposure remained unchanged at 39 states and 23 industries.

BALANCE SHEET AND LIQUIDITY

In April, the Company completed a follow on offering of 10,915,688 shares of common stock, which includes the full exercise of the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares, at a price to the public of $18.65 per share. Gross proceeds to the Company from the offering, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses, were approximately $203.6 million. Proceeds from the offering were used to repay certain borrowings under the revolving credit facility, fund acquisitions of properties, and for general corporate purposes.

At quarter end, total debt outstanding was $175 million, with a weighted average term of 3.5 years and a quarter end contractual interest rate, including the impact of the fixed rate swap, of 1.36% (excluding the impact of deferred fee amortization). All of the Company's debt was at a fixed rate and the Company's net debt to annualized adjusted EBITDA ratio was 2.1x. Additionally, the ending cash balance was $88 million, and the Company had an unused revolving line of credit with $250 million of capacity.

DIVIDEND

On July 27, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share for the third quarter of 2021, which will be paid on September 15, 2021 to shareholders of record on September 1, 2021.

2021 OUTLOOK

The Company is maintaining its full year 2021 AFFO per share guidance in the range of $0.95 to $0.99 per share. This AFFO guidance is based on the following assumptions:

For full year 2021, the Company expects net acquisition activity, inclusive of dispositions, to be at least $360 million
The Company expects cash G&A to be in the range of $11.0 to $12.0 million, which includes recurring transaction costs, as well as additional non-cash compensation expense of $3.0 to $4.0 million
The Company expects cash interest expense, including unused line of credit facility fees, of $3.0 to $3.5 million, and an additional $0.6 million of non-cash deferred financing fee amortization
The Company expects to incur taxes in the range of $0.2 to $0.3 million which will be reported as "income taxes" in the Company's financial statements for 2021
Full year 2021 diluted weighted average shares outstanding, which includes the impact of OP units, are expected to be in the range of 38 to 39 million shares

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

FFO, Core FFO and AFFO

FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure defined by NAREIT as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding real estate-related expenses including, but not limited to, gains (losses) from sales, impairment adjustments, and depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Our calculation of FFO is consistent with FFO as defined by NAREIT.

Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as FFO adjusted for gains from forfeited earnest money deposits and non-recurring public company costs. We believe the presentation of Core FFO provides investors with a metric to assist in their evaluation of our operating performance across multiple periods because it removes the effect of unusual and non-recurring items that are not expected to impact our operating performance on an ongoing basis.

AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as Core FFO adjusted for GAAP net income related to non-cash revenues and expenses, such as straight-line rent, amortization of above- and below-market lease-related intangibles, amortization of lease incentives, capitalized interest expense, non-cash compensation expense, and amortization of deferred financing costs.

Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. In fact, real estate values historically have risen or fallen with market conditions. FFO is intended to be a standard supplemental measure of operating performance that excludes historical cost depreciation and valuation adjustments from net income. We consider FFO to be useful in evaluating potential property acquisitions and measuring operating performance. We further consider Core FFO and AFFO to be useful in determining funds available for payment of distributions. FFO, Core FFO and AFFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP. You should not consider FFO, Core FFO and AFFO to be alternatives to net income as a reliable measure of our operating performance; nor should you consider FFO, Core FFO and AFFO to be alternatives to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities (as defined by GAAP) as measures of liquidity.

FFO, Core FFO and AFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including principal amortization, capital improvements and distributions to stockholders. FFO, Core FFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by GAAP. Further, FFO, Core FFO and AFFO as disclosed by other REITs might not be comparable to our calculations of FFO, Core FFO and AFFO.

EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre

We compute EBITDA as earnings before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. In 2017, NAREIT issued a white paper recommending that companies that report EBITDA also report EBITDAre. We compute EBITDAre in accordance with the definition adopted by NAREIT. NAREIT defines EBITDAre as EBITDA (as defined above) excluding gains (or losses) from the sales of depreciable property and real estate impairment losses.

Adjusted EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as EBITDAre further adjusted to exclude straight-line rent, gains from forfeited earnest money deposits, non-recurring public company costs, representing consulting fees that we have incurred in preparing to become a public company and non-cash compensation expense.

We present EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre as they are measures commonly used in our industry. We believe that these measures are useful to investors and analysts because they provide supplemental information concerning our operating performance, exclusive of certain non-cash items and other costs. We use EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre as measures of our operating performance and not as measures of liquidity.

EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre do not include all items of revenue and expense included in net income, they do not represent cash generated from operating activities and they are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash requirements; accordingly, they should not be considered alternatives to net income as a performance measure or cash flows from operations as a liquidity measure and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures. Additionally, our computation of EBITDA, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre may differ from the methodology for calculating these metrics used by other equity REITs and, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other equity REITs.

NOI and Cash NOI

NOI and Cash NOI are non-GAAP financial measures which we use to assess our operating results. We compute NOI as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding general and administrative expenses, interest expense (or income), income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, gains (or losses) on sales of depreciable property, gain from forfeited earnest money deposits and real estate impairment losses. We further adjust NOI for non-cash revenue components of straight-line rent and amortization of lease intangibles and lease incentives to derive Cash NOI. We believe NOI and Cash NOI provide useful and relevant information because they reflect only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and present such items on an unlevered basis.

NOI and Cash NOI are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP, and our NOI and Cash NOI may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. You should not consider our NOI and Cash NOI as alternatives to net income or cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP.
