New York, NY – April 29, 2025 – W. P. Carey Inc. (NYSE: WPC) (W. P. Carey or the Company), a net lease real estate investment trust, today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

•Reaffirming 2025 AFFO guidance of between $4.82 and $4.92 per diluted share, based on anticipated full year investment volume of between $1.0 billion and $1.5 billion

•First quarter cash dividend of $0.890 per share, equivalent to an annualized dividend rate of $3.56 per share

•Investment volume of $448.6 million completed year to date, including $275.1 million during the first quarter and $173.5 million subsequent to quarter end

•Active capital investments and commitments of $117.1 million scheduled to be completed in 2025

•Gross disposition proceeds of $129.8 million during the first quarter

•Contractual same-store rent growth of 2.4%

•Repaid $450 million of 4.0% Senior Unsecured Notes due February 2025

•Refinanced existing €500 million term loan, extending its maturity three years to 2029, and executed an interest rate swap fixing the interest rate at 2.80% per annum

“We’ve had a strong start to the year, closing approximately $450 million of investments to date, with an additional $120 million of projects scheduled to complete this year and several hundred million dollars of deals in our pipeline at advanced stages,” said Jason Fox, Chief Executive Officer. “Notwithstanding the current uncertainty in the markets, we believe we’re well positioned to continue executing on our business plan given the typical resiliency of our portfolio during times of economic disruption, the strength of our balance sheet and, importantly, our ability to fund external growth through the top end of our investment guidance range, without having to issue capital this year.

“We’re reaffirming both our AFFO and investment volume guidance ranges and believe there’s potential to raise as we continue to gain better visibility into transaction activity, tariffs and how the overall economic environment progresses throughout the year.”

•Revenues, including reimbursable costs, for the 2025 first quarter totaled $409.9 million, up 5.2% from $389.8 million for the 2024 first quarter.

◦Lease revenues increased primarily due to net investment activity and the impact of certain lease restructurings.

◦Income from finance leases and loans receivable decreased primarily as a result of the disposition of the U-Haul portfolio during the 2024 first quarter.

◦Operating property revenues decreased primarily as a result of the sale of one hotel operating property during the 2024 second quarter and the conversion of certain self-storage operating properties to net leases during the 2024 third quarter.

•Net income attributable to W. P. Carey for the 2025 first quarter was $125.8 million, down 21.0% from $159.2 million for the 2024 first quarter, due primarily to higher losses from remeasurement of foreign debt and a higher non-cash allowance for credit loss on finance leases and loans receivable, partly offset by higher gain on sale of real estate.

•AFFO for the 2025 first quarter was $1.17 per diluted share, up 2.6% from $1.14 per diluted share for the 2024 first quarter, primarily reflecting the impact of net investment activity, rent escalations and leasing activity, partly offset by lower interest income on cash deposits.

•On March 13, 2025, the Company reported that its Board of Directors increased its quarterly cash dividend to $0.890 per share, equivalent to an annualized dividend rate of $3.56 per share, representing a 2.9% increase compared to the 2024 first quarter. The dividend was paid on April 15, 2025 to shareholders of record as of March 31, 2025.

•For the 2025 full year, the Company reaffirms its expectation that it will report AFFO of between $4.82 and $4.92 per diluted share, based on the following key assumptions, which are unchanged:

(i)    investment volume of between $1.0 billion and $1.5 billion;

(ii)    disposition volume of between $500 million and $1.0 billion;

(iii) total general and administrative expenses of between $100 million and $103 million;

(iv) property expenses, excluding reimbursable tenant costs of between $49 million and $53 million; and

(v) tax expense (on an AFFO basis) of between $39 million and $43 million.

•Year to date, the Company completed investments totaling $448.6 million, including $275.1 million during the 2025 first quarter and $173.5 million subsequent to quarter end.

•During the 2025 first quarter, the Company committed to fund new capital investments and commitments totaling $50.8 million, which are scheduled to be completed in 2025 and 2026.

•The Company currently has eight capital investments and commitments totaling $117.1 million scheduled to be completed during 2025.

•During the 2025 first quarter, the Company disposed of nine properties for gross proceeds totaling $129.8 million.

•As of March 31, 2025, contractual same store rent growth was 2.4% year over year, on a constant currency basis.

•As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s net lease portfolio consisted of 1,614 properties, comprising 177 million square feet leased to 366 tenants, with a weighted-average lease term of 12.3 years and an occupancy rate of 98.3%. In addition, the Company owned 78 self-storage operating properties, four hotel operating properties and two student housing operating properties, totaling approximately 6.4 million square feet.

•As of March 31, 2025, the Company had total liquidity of $2.0 billion, including approximately $1.8 billion of available capacity under its Senior Unsecured Credit Facility (net of amounts reserved for standby letters of credit) and $187.8 million of cash and cash equivalents.

•As previously announced, on March 31, 2025, the Company refinanced its existing €500 million term loan and extended its maturity by three years to 2029. The term loan includes an option to extend up to an additional year at the Company’s discretion, subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions.

•In conjunction with the term loan, the Company executed a €500 million variable-to-fixed interest rate swap fixing one-month EURIBOR at 2.00% and resulting in an all-in annual rate of 2.80%.

•As previously announced, on February 3, 2025, the Company repaid $450 million of 4.0% Senior Unsecured Notes at maturity.
