Segment Reporting

Note 18—Segment Reporting

The Company has determined that it has four reportable segments based on how management reviews and manages its business. These reportable segments include: Net Lease, Real Estate Finance, Operating Properties and Land and Development. The Net Lease segment includes the Company’s activities and operations related to the ownership of properties generally leased to single corporate tenants and its investments in SAFE and Net Lease Venture II (refer to Note 8). The Real Estate Finance segment includes all of the Company’s activities related to senior and mezzanine real estate loans and real estate related securities. The Operating Properties segment includes the Company’s activities and operations related to its commercial and residential properties. The Land and Development segment includes the Company’s activities related to its developable land portfolio.

The Company evaluates performance-based on the following financial measures for each segment. The Company’s segment information is as follows ($ in thousands):
