Global Medical REIT Announces First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

– Completes Acquisition of Previously Announced $69.6 Million Five-Property Medical Portfolio –

– Reaffirms Full Year 2025 AFFO Guidance –

Global Medical REIT Inc. (NYSE:GMRE) (the "Company" or "GMRE"), a net-lease medical real estate investment trust (REIT) that acquires healthcare facilities and leases those facilities to physician groups and regional and national healthcare systems, today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and other data.

Jeffrey M. Busch, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President stated, "During the first quarter, we continued to deliver steady results supported by the high quality of our portfolio and stability of our tenant base. I'm pleased to announce we have completed the acquisition of the five-property portfolio we announced in the fourth quarter of last year. These properties are a great strategic fit to our existing portfolio given (i) the procedural-based nature of the tenants' specialties (including cardiology, gastroenterology, imaging and oncology tenants) and the close proximity of the buildings to hospital campuses, each of which promotes tenant retention, and (ii) that almost 70% of the leases are triple-net leases. We utilized our deep relationships in the industry to win the bidding for this portfolio at an attractive cap rate of 9.0%, which further demonstrates our ability to acquire properties in a higher cost of capital environment. I am extremely proud of this acquisition and, with our strong liquidity position, we will continue to actively monitor the transaction market for acquisition opportunities that meet our disciplined investment criteria. As I transition from my role as CEO, I would like to express my appreciation to the entire GMRE family for their dedication and contributions to our shared success."

First Quarter 2025 and Other Highlights

• Net income attributable to common stockholders was $2.1 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, as compared to $0.8 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the comparable prior year period.
• Funds from operations attributable to common stockholders and noncontrolling interest ("FFO") of $14.8 million, or $0.20 per share and unit, as compared to $14.9 million, or $0.21 per share and unit, in the comparable prior year period.
• Adjusted funds from operations attributable to common stockholders and noncontrolling interest ("AFFO") of $16.0 million, or $0.22 per share and unit, as compared to $16.5 million, or $0.23 per share and unit, in the comparable prior year period.
• Completed the acquisition of the previously announced five-property portfolio of medical real estate for a purchase price of $69.6 million encompassing an aggregate of 486,598 leasable square feet with aggregate annualized base rent of $6.3 million. Three of the properties closed in February 2025 and the remaining two properties closed in April 2025.
• Completed the disposition of two medical facilities during the quarter, receiving aggregate gross proceeds of $8.2 million, resulting in an aggregate gain of $1.4 million. At the dates of disposition, one facility was occupied and one facility was vacant. The cap rate on the sale of the occupied facility was 6.7%.
• Portfolio leased occupancy was 95.6% at March 31, 2025.

Financial Results

Rental revenue for the first quarter of 2025 decreased 1.4% year-over-year to $34.6 million. Total expenses for the first quarter were $32.2 million, compared to $32.8 million for the comparable prior year period.

General and administrative expenses for the first quarter were $3.6 million, compared to $4.4 million for the comparable prior year period. This decrease primarily resulted from a reduction in non-cash LTIP compensation expense resulting from the required accounting treatment of unvested LTIP units held by Mr. Busch, pursuant to the terms of his Transition and Separation Agreement and General Release of Claims, dated January 8, 2025.

Interest expense for the first quarter was $7.2 million, compared to $6.9 million for the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher average borrowings, partially offset by lower interest rates, during the first quarter of 2025, compared to the prior year period.

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the first quarter totaled $2.1 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to $0.8 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the comparable prior year period.

The Company reported FFO of $14.8 million, or $0.20 per share and unit, and AFFO of $16.0 million, or $0.22 per share and unit, for the first quarter of 2025, compared to FFO of $14.9 million, or $0.21 per share and unit, and AFFO of $16.5 million, or $0.23 per share and unit, in the comparable prior year period.

This dividend represents the Company's quarterly dividend on its Series A Preferred Stock for the period from January 31, 2025 through April 29, 2025.

2025 Guidance

The Company is reaffirming its full year 2025 AFFO per share and unit guidance of $0.89 to $0.93. Guidance is based on the following primary assumptions and other factors:

• No additional acquisitions or dispositions other than activity that has been either completed or announced.
• No additional equity or debt issuances other than normal course Revolver borrowing/repayments.
• AFFO guidance excludes one-time obligations related to the CEO succession plan.

The Company's 2025 guidance is based on the above and additional assumptions that are subject to change many of which are outside of the Company's control. There can be no assurance that the Company's actual results will not be materially different than these expectations. If actual results vary from these assumptions, the Company's expectations may change.

AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP because certain information required for such reconciliation is not available without unreasonable efforts due to the difficulty of projecting event-driven transactional and other non-core operating items in any future period. The magnitude of these items, however, may be significant.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

General

Management considers certain non-GAAP financial measures to be useful supplemental measures of the Company's operating performance. For the Company, non-GAAP measures consist of Funds From Operations attributable to common stockholders and noncontrolling interest ("FFO") and Adjusted Funds From Operations attributable to common stockholders and noncontrolling interest ("AFFO") and Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate ("EBITDAre" and "Adjusted EBITDAre"). A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as one that purports to measure financial performance, financial position or cash flows, but excludes or includes amounts that would not be so adjusted in the most comparable measure determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company reports non-GAAP financial measures because these measures are observed by management to also be among the most predominant measures used by the REIT industry and by industry analysts to evaluate REITs. For these reasons, management deems it appropriate to disclose and discuss these non-GAAP financial measures.

The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein are not necessarily identical to those presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definitions. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income, as indicators of the Company's financial performance, or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as measures of the Company's liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company's needs. Management believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the Company's historical consolidated operating results, these measures should be examined in conjunction with net income and cash flows from operations as presented elsewhere herein.

FFO and AFFO

FFO and AFFO are non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Company considers FFO and AFFO to be important supplemental measures of its operating performance and believes FFO is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. In accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts' ("NAREIT") definition, FFO means net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP before noncontrolling interests of holders of OP units and LTIP units, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and extraordinary items, property impairment losses, less preferred stock dividends, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of debt issuance costs and the amortization of above and below market leases), and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. Because FFO excludes real estate-related depreciation and amortization (other than amortization of debt issuance costs and above and below market lease amortization expense), the Company believes that FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared period-over-period, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities and interest costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from the closest GAAP measurement, net income or loss.

AFFO is a non-GAAP measure used by many investors and analysts to measure a real estate company's operating performance by removing the effect of items that do not reflect ongoing property operations. Management calculates AFFO by modifying the NAREIT computation of FFO by adjusting it for certain cash and non-cash items and certain recurring and non-recurring items. For the Company these items include: (a) recurring acquisition and disposition costs, (b) loss on the extinguishment of debt, (c) recurring straight line deferred rental revenue, (d) recurring stock-based compensation expense, (e) recurring amortization of above and below market leases, (f) recurring amortization of debt issuance costs, (g) severance and transition related expense and (h) other items related to unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

Management believes that reporting AFFO in addition to FFO is a useful supplemental measure for the investment community to use when evaluating the operating performance of the Company on a comparative basis.

EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre

We calculate EBITDAre in accordance with standards established by NAREIT and define EBITDAre as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense, gain or loss on the sale of investment properties, property impairment losses, and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures to reflect EBITDAre on the same basis, as applicable.

We define Adjusted EBITDAre as EBITDAre plus loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash stock compensation expense, non-cash intangible amortization related to above and below market leases, severance and transition related expense, transaction expense, adjustments related to our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and other normalizing items. Management considers EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre important measures because they provide additional information to allow management, investors, and our current and potential creditors to evaluate and compare our core operating results and our ability to service debt.

RENT COVERAGE RATIO

For purposes of calculating our portfolio weighted-average EBITDARM coverage ratio ("Rent Coverage Ratio"), we excluded credit-rated tenants or their subsidiaries for which financial statements were either not available or not sufficiently detailed. These ratios are based on the latest available information only. Most tenant financial statements are unaudited and we have not independently verified any tenant financial information (audited or unaudited) and, therefore, we cannot assure you that such information is accurate or complete. Certain other tenants (approximately 21% of our portfolio) are excluded from the calculation due to (i) lack of available financial information or (ii) small tenant size. Additionally, included within 21% of non-reporting tenants is Pipeline Healthcare, LLC, which (i) was sold to Heights Healthcare in October 2023 and is being operated under new management and (ii) occupies our only acute-care hospital asset, which is not one of our core asset classes. Additionally, our Rent Coverage Ratio adds back physician distributions and compensation. Management believes all adjustments are reasonable and necessary.

ANNUALIZED BASE RENT

Annualized base rent represents monthly base rent for March 2025 (or, for recent acquisitions, monthly base rent for the month of acquisition), multiplied by 12 (or base rent net of annualized expenses for properties with gross leases). Accordingly, this methodology produces an annualized amount as of a point in time but does not take into account future (i) contractual rental rate increases, (ii) leasing activity or (iii) lease expirations. Additionally, leases that are accounted for on a cash-collected basis or that are in a free rent period are not included in annualized base rent.

CAPITALIZATION RATE

The capitalization rate ("cap rate") for an acquisition is calculated by dividing current Annualized Base Rent by contractual purchase price. For the portfolio cap rate, certain adjustments, including for subsequent capital invested, are made to the contractual purchase price.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained herein may be considered "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and it is the Company's intent that any such statements be protected by the safe harbor created thereby.
