Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

The information contained in the following notes to the consolidated financial statements is condensed from that which would appear in the annual consolidated financial statements; accordingly, the consolidated financial statements included herein should be reviewed in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, and related notes thereto, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Easterly Government Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 28, 2023.

The Company is a Maryland corporation that has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2015. The operations of the Company are carried on primarily through Easterly Government Properties LP (the “Operating Partnership”) and the wholly owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. As used herein, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Easterly Government Properties, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and partnerships, including the Operating Partnership, except where context otherwise requires.

We are an internally managed REIT, focused primarily on the acquisition, development, and management of Class A commercial properties that are leased to U.S. Government agencies that serve essential functions. We generate substantially all of our revenue by leasing our properties to such agencies, either directly or through the U.S. General Services Administration (“GSA”). Our objective is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders over the long-term through dividends and capital appreciation.

We focus on acquiring, developing and managing U.S. Government leased properties that are essential to supporting the mission of the tenant agency and strive to be a partner of choice for the U.S. Government, working closely with the tenant agency to meet its needs and objectives. As of June 30, 2023, we wholly owned 78 operating properties and eight operating properties through an unconsolidated joint venture (the “JV”) in the United States, encompassing approximately 8.6 million leased square feet, including 85 operating properties that were leased primarily to U.S. Government tenant agencies and one operating property that was entirely leased to a private tenant. As of June 30, 2023, our operating properties were 98% leased. For purposes of calculating percentage leased, we exclude from the denominator total square feet that was unleased and to which we attributed no value at the time of acquisition. In addition, we wholly owned one property under development that we expect will encompass approximately 0.2 million leased square feet upon completion.

The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of our assets and conducts substantially all of our business. We are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. We owned approximately 88.4% of the aggregate limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (“common units”) at June 30, 2023. We believe that we have operated and have been organized in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2015.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company, Easterly Government Properties TRS, LLC, Easterly Government Services, LLC, the Operating Partnership and its other subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited; however, they include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to state fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet, and the

6

reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the impact of extraordinary events, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

(2)Our revolving credit facility had available capacity of $396.9 million at June 30, 2023 with an accordion feature that permits us to request additional lender commitments for up to $250.0 million of additional capacity, subject to the satisfaction of customary terms and conditions.

(3)Entered into one interest rate swap with an effective date of June 23, 2023 with a notional value of $100.0 million, of which $50.0 million is associated with our revolving credit facility, to effectively fix the interest rate at 5.36% annually, based on our consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in our revolving credit facility agreement.

(4)Our revolving credit facility has two six-month as-of-right extension options subject to certain conditions and the payment of an extension fee.

(5)Our 2018 term loan facility has undrawn capacity up to $50.0 million of which is available during a delayed draw period.

(6)Entered into two interest rate swaps with an effective date of March 29, 2017 with an aggregate notional value of $100.0 million to effectively fix the interest rate at 2.72% annually, based on our consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in our 2016 term loan facility agreement. We transitioned the two interest rate swaps from LIBOR to SOFR effective November 29, 2022.

(7)Entered into two interest rate swaps with an effective date of June 23, 2023 with an aggregate notional value of $200.0 million, of which $150.0 million is associated with our 2018 term loan facility, to effectively fix the interest rate at 5.42% annually, based on our consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in our 2018 term loan facility agreement.

(8)Effective interest rates are as follows: VA – Golden 5.03%, USFS II – Albuquerque 3.92%, ICE – Charleston 3.93%, VA – Loma Linda 3.78%, CBP – Savannah 4.12%, USCIS – Kansas City 2.05%.

As of June 30, 2023, the net carrying value of real estate collateralizing our mortgages payable totaled $330.0 million. See Note 7 for the fair value of our debt instruments.

On January 26, 2023, we used $15.7 million of available cash to extinguish the mortgage note obligation on DEA – Pleasanton.

On February 3, 2023, we entered into three SOFR-based interest rate swaps each with a notional value of $100.0 million that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. Two of the interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional value of $200.0 million, became effective in June 2023. The third swap, with a notional value of $100.0 million, will become effective when our existing swaps mature in September 2023. See Note 6 for more information on our interest rate swaps.

On May 30, 2023, we entered into the third amendment to our second amended and restated credit agreement, dated as of July 23, 2021 and into the sixth amendment to our senior unsecured term loan agreement, dated as of September 29, 2016. These amendments added a daily simple SOFR-based option to the term SOFR-based floating interest rate option as a benchmark rate for borrowings denominated in U.S. dollars for all purposes under the credit and term loan agreements, including, in each case, a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%.

On July 20, 2023, we drew the full $50.0 million delayed draw on our 2018 term loan facility and transferred $50.0 million of our interest rate swap with a notional value of $100.0 million, from our revolving credit facility to the $50.0 million delayed draw.

Financial Covenant Considerations

As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all financial and other covenants related to our debt.

6. Derivatives and Hedging Activities

The following table sets forth the key terms and fair values of our interest rate swap derivatives, each of which was designated as a cash flow hedge as of June 30, 2023 (amounts in thousands):

Notional Amount		Fixed Rate			Floating Rate Index	Effective Date	Expiration Date	Fair Value
$	37,000		1.36	%	One Month USD-SOFR CME Term	November 29, 2022	September 29, 2023	$	355

The table below sets forth the fair value of our interest rate derivatives as well as their classification on our Consolidated Balance Sheet (amounts in thousands):

Balance Sheet Line Item	As of June 30, 2023
Interest rate swaps - Asset	$	5,114

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The gains or losses on derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) and will be reclassified to interest expense in the period that the hedged forecasted transactions affect earnings on our variable rate debt.

We estimate that $4.3 million will be reclassified from AOCI as a decrease to interest expense over the next 12 months.

The table below presents the effects of our interest rate derivatives on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (amounts in thousands):

	For the three months ended June 30,					For the six months ended June 30,
	2023		2022			2023		2022
Unrealized gain recognized in AOCI	$	4,842	$	2,005		$	4,336	$	6,244
Gain (loss) reclassified from AOCI into interest expense		1,735		(898	)		3,242		(2,166	)

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features

We have agreements with each of our derivative counterparties that contain a provision where we could be declared in default on our derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to our default on such indebtedness. As of June 30, 2023, we were not in a net liability position with any derivative counterparty. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with these agreements and had not posted any collateral related to these agreements.

7. Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards define fair value as the exit price, or the amount that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The standards also establish a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of us. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability developed based upon the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy of these inputs is broken down into three levels: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. Categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is most significant to the fair value measurement.

Recurring fair value measurements

The fair values of our interest rate swaps are determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis, on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities in such interest rates. While we determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties. We have determined that the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments made to our derivative contracts, which determination was based on the fair value of each individual contract, was not significant to the overall valuation. As a result, all of our derivatives held as of June 30, 2023 were classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

11

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, other assets and accounts payable and accrued expenses are reasonable estimates of fair values because of the short maturities of these instruments. The table below presents our assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2023, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall (amounts in thousands):

	As of June 30, 2023
Balance Sheet Line Item	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Interest rate swaps - Asset	$	—	$	5,114	$	—

For our disclosure of debt fair values, we estimated the fair value of our 2016 term loan facility and our 2018 term loan facility based on the variable interest rate and credit spreads (categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy) and estimated the fair value of our other debt based on the discounted estimated future cash payments to be made on such debt (categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy); the discount rates used approximate current market rates for loans, or groups of loans, with similar maturities and credit quality, and the estimated future payments included scheduled principal and interest payments. Fair value estimates are made as of a specific point in time, are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Settlement at such fair value amounts may not be possible and may not be a prudent management decision.

Financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value

As of June 30, 2023, all financial instruments and liabilities were reflected in our balance sheets at amounts which, in our estimation, reasonably approximated their fair values, except for the following:

	As of June 30, 2023
Financial liabilities	Carrying Amount (1)		Fair Value (2)
Revolving credit facility	$	53,000	$	53,000
2016 term loan facility	$	100,000	$	100,000
2018 term loan facility	$	150,000	$	150,000
Notes payable	$	700,000	$	591,010
Mortgages payable	$	222,786	$	206,596

(1)The carrying amount consists of principal only.

(2)We deem the fair value measurement of the financial liability instrument a Level 3 measurement.

8. Equity Incentive Plan

Restricted Shares

We award restricted stock to certain members of management and non‑employee directors. Management awards generally vest over a range of two to four years. Non‑employee director awards vest upon the earlier of the anniversary of the date of the grant or the next annual stockholder meeting, as long as the grantee remains a director or employee on such date. Restricted stock awards issued under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2015 Equity Incentive Plan”), may not be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions have lapsed, as established by the compensation committee.

We value our non-vested restricted share awards at the grant date fair value, which was the market price of our common stock as of the applicable grant date. Compensation expense related to restricted common stock awards was $0.2 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The fair value of restricted stock that vested was $0.3 million and $1.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, based on the market price at the vesting date. The balance of unamortized restricted stock expense as of June 30, 2023 was $0.5 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted‑average period of 1.1 years.

12

A summary of the status of our restricted shares as of June 30, 2023 and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2023 is presented below:

	Restricted Shares			Restricted Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share
Outstanding, December 31, 2022		41,315		$	19.94
Vested		(24,347	)		18.57
Granted		32,486			14.18
Forfeited		—			—
Outstanding, June 30, 2023		49,454		$	16.83

LTIP Units

We grant LTIP units to certain members of management and non‑employee directors. Management awards generally vest immediately or over a range of two to four years. Non‑employee director shares vest upon the earlier of the anniversary of the date of the grant or the next annual stockholder meeting, as long as the grantee remains a director or employee on such date. Performance-based LTIP units are earned subject to us achieving certain thresholds, including absolute total shareholder returns, relative total shareholder returns, or operational hurdles through the performance period. Service-based LTIP units vest over time, subject to continued employment and other terms of the awards.

The following is a summary of our granted LTIP unit awards during the six months ended June 30, 2023:

Award  Type	Grant  Date	Performance Period End Date		Vest Date	Units Granted
Service	January 3, 2023		—	December 31, 2025		219,859
Operational	January 3, 2023	December 31, 2025		1		127,291
Performance	January 3, 2023	December 31, 2025		1		148,633
Service	March 2, 2023		—	March 2, 2026		3,438
Service	May 9, 2023		—	2		16,244
2023 LTIP Grant						515,465

(1)Earned units will vest on the date of compensation committee determination of performance.

(2)Units will vest on the earlier of the anniversary of the grant date or the 2024 stockholder meeting.

We value our operational LTIP unit awards that are subject to us achieving certain performance conditions at the grant date fair value, which is the market price of our common stock as of the applicable grant date. We value our service-based LTIP unit awards at the grant date fair value, which is the market price of our common stock as of the applicable grant date, discounted by the risk related to the timing of book-up events. For the performance LTIP unit awards granted that are subject to us achieving certain total shareholder return thresholds, we used a Monte Carlo Simulation (risk-neutral approach) to determine the grant date fair value.

The following is a summary of the significant assumptions used to value the total shareholder return for performance-based LTIP units during the six months ended June 30, 2023:

Expected volatility		29.0	%
Dividend yield		5.6	%
Risk-free interest rate		4.2	%
Expected life	3 years

The fair value of LTIP units that vested were $4.0 million and $5.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, based on the market price at the vesting date. Compensation expense related to LTIP unit awards was $1.2 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $2.7 million and $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The balance of unamortized LTIP expense as of June 30, 2023 was $9.9 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted‑average period of 1.9 years. As of June 30, 2023, management considers it probable that the operational performance conditions on our unvested grants will be achieved.

13

A summary of the status of our LTIP units as of June 30, 2023 and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2023 are presented below:

	LTIP Units (1)			LTIP Units Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share
Outstanding, December 31, 2022		896,665		$	19.90

Q2 2023	August 2, 2023	August 17, 2023	August 29, 2023	$	0.265

(1)Prior to the end of the performance period as set forth in the applicable LTIP unit award, holders of performance-based LTIP units are entitled to receive dividends per LTIP unit equal to 10% of the dividend paid per common unit. After the end of the performance period, the number of LTIP units, both vested and unvested, that LTIP award recipients have earned, if any, are entitled to receive dividends in an amount per LTIP unit equal to dividends, both regular and special, payable per common unit. Holders of LTIP units that are not subject to the attainment of performance goals are entitled to receive dividends per LTIP unit equal to 100% of the dividend paid per common unit beginning on the grant date.

Offering of Common Stock on a Forward Basis

On August 11, 2021, we completed an underwritten public offering of 6,300,000 shares of common stock offered on a forward basis. In connection with the offering, we also entered into separate forward sale agreements with each of the forward purchasers (the “Forward Sales Agreements”), pursuant to which the forward purchasers borrowed and sold to the underwriters an aggregate of 6,300,000 shares of our common stock. On December 28, 2021, we issued 3,991,000 shares of our common stock for net proceeds of $85.0 million, which shares were issued in partial settlement of the Forward Sales Agreements entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we issued 2,309,000 shares of common stock under the Forward Sale Agreements and received net cash proceeds of approximately $46.8 million. As of June 30, 2023, all shares of common stock under the Forward Sales Agreements had been issued and settled.

15

ATM Programs

We entered into separate equity distribution agreements on each of December 20, 2019 (the “2019 ATM Program”) and June 22, 2021 (the “2021 ATM Program” and, together with the 2019 ATM Program, the “ATM Programs”) with various financial institutions pursuant to which we may issue and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $300.0 million under each ATM Program from time to time in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Under each of the ATM Programs, we may enter into one or more forward transactions (each, a “forward sale transaction”) under separate master forward sale confirmations and related supplemental confirmations with each of the various financial institutions party to the respective ATM Program for the sale of shares of our common stock on a forward basis.

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to issuances under the 2019 ATM Program during the six months ended June 30, 2023 (amounts in thousands except share amounts):

	2019 ATM Program
For the three months ended	Number of Shares Issued(1)		Net Proceeds(1)
March 31, 2023		250,000	$	5,562
June 30, 2023		—		—
Total		250,000	$	5,562

(1)Shares were all issued in settlement of forward sales transactions. Additionally, as of June 30, 2023, we had entered into forward sales transactions under the 2019 ATM Program for the sale of an additional 1,700,000 shares of our common stock that have not yet been settled. Subject to our right to elect net share settlement, we expect to physically settle the forward sales transactions by the maturity dates set forth in each applicable forward sale transaction placement notice, which dates range from August 2023 to July 2024. Assuming the forward sales transactions are physically settled in full utilizing a net weighted average initial forward sales price of $21.61 per share, we expect to receive net proceeds of approximately $36.7 million, after deducting offering costs, subject to adjustments in accordance with the applicable forward sale transaction. We accounted for the forward sale transactions as equity.

No sales of shares of our common stock were made under the 2021 ATM Program during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

We used the net proceeds received from such sales for general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2023, we had approximately $300.0 million of gross sales of our common stock available under the 2021 ATM Program and $87.4 million of gross sales of common stock available under the 2019 ATM Program.

Share Repurchase Program

On April 28, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program whereby we may repurchase up to 4,538,994 shares of our common stock, or approximately 5% of our outstanding shares as of the authorization date. We are not required to purchase shares under the share repurchase program, but may choose to do so in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions at times and amounts based on our evaluation of market conditions and other factors.

No repurchases of shares of our common stock were made under the share repurchase program during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Contribution of Property for Common Units

On January 25, 2023, the Operating Partnership issued 12,391 common units and fully settled a contingent earn-out liability in connection with our acquisition of FBI / DEA - El Paso on May 26, 2020. The issuance of the common units was effected in reliance upon an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act.

10. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings or loss per share of common stock (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted EPS is computed after adjusting the basic EPS computation for the effect of dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the periods presented. Unvested restricted shares of common stock and unvested LTIP units are considered participating securities, which require the use of the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share.

The following table sets forth the computation of our basic and diluted earnings per share of common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (amounts in thousands, except per share amounts):

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, there were 4,259,000 and 2,809,000 shares, respectively, of underlying unsettled forward sales transactions that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because to do so would have been antidilutive for the period.

11. Leases

Lessor

We lease commercial space to the U.S. Government through the GSA or other federal agencies or nongovernmental tenants. These leases may contain extension options that are predominately at the sole discretion of the tenant. Certain of our leases contain a “soft-term” period of the lease, meaning that the U.S. Government tenant agency has the right to terminate the lease prior to its stated lease end date. While certain of our leases are contractually subject to early termination, we do not believe that our tenant agencies are likely to terminate these leases early given the build-to-suit features at the properties subject to the leases, the weighted average age of these properties based on the date the property was built or renovated-to-suit, where applicable (approximately 19.1 years as of June 30, 2023), the mission-critical focus of the properties subject to the leases and the current level of operations at such properties. Certain lease agreements include variable lease payments that, in the future, will vary based on changes in inflationary measures, real estate tax rates, usage, or share of expenditures of the leased premises.

The following table summarizes the maturity of fixed lease payments under our leases as of June 30, 2023 (amounts in thousands):

Lessee

We lease corporate office space under operating lease arrangements in Washington, D.C. and San Diego, CA. The leases include variable lease payments that, in the future, will vary based on changes in real estate tax rates, usage, or share of expenditures of the leased premises. We have elected not to separate lease and non-lease components for our corporate office leases.

As of June 30, 2023, the unamortized balances associated with our right-of-use operating lease asset and operating lease liability were both $3.3 million. We used our incremental borrowing rate, which was arrived at utilizing prevailing market rates and the spread on our revolving credit facility, in order to determine the net present value of the minimum lease payments.

As June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance in Accounts receivable related to tenant construction projects and the associated project management income was $8.2 million and $6.8 million, respectively.

The duration of the majority of tenant construction project reimbursement arrangements is less than a year and payment is typically due once a project is complete and work has been accepted by the tenant. There were no projects on-going as of June 30, 2023 with a duration of greater than one year.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, in parking garage income generated from the operations of parking garages situated on the Various GSA – Buffalo property and on the Various GSA – Portland property. During both the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized $0.1 million in parking garage income generated from the operations of parking garages situated on the Various GSA – Buffalo property and on the Various GSA – Portland property. The monthly and transient daily parking revenue falls within the scope of Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) and is accounted for at the point in time when control of the goods or services transfers to the customer and our performance obligation is satisfied. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance in Accounts receivable related to parking garage income was less than $0.1 million.

During both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized less than $0.1 million in income for providing COVID-19 related cleaning services to certain tenants. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, in income for providing COVID-19 related cleaning services to certain tenants. The income falls within the scope of ASC 606 and is recognized over time as the performance obligation is satisfied. The balance in Accounts receivable related to these services was less than $0.1 million as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

19

There were no contract assets or liabilities as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

13. Concentrations Risk

Concentrations of credit risk arise for us when multiple of our tenants are engaged in similar business activities, are located in the same geographic region or have similar economic features that impact in a similar manner their ability to meet contractual obligations, including obligations owed to us. We regularly monitor our tenant base to assess potential concentrations of credit risk.

As stated in Note 1 above, we lease commercial space to the U.S. Government or non-governmental tenants. At June 30, 2023, the U.S. Government accounted for approximately 98.5% of our total annualized lease income and non-governmental tenants accounted for the remaining approximately 1.5%.

Seventeen of our 86 wholly-owned and unconsolidated operating properties are located in California, accounting for approximately 15.0% of our total leased square feet and approximately 20.0% of our total annualized lease income as of June 30, 2023. To the extent that weak economic or real estate conditions or natural disasters affect California more severely than other areas of the country, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be significantly impacted.

14. Related Parties

We provide asset management services to properties owned by the JV. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized Asset management income of $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized Asset management income of $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

15. Subsequent Events

For our consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023, we evaluated subsequent events and noted no significant events.

Overview

References to “we,” “our,” “us” and “the Company” refer to Easterly Government Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, together with our consolidated subsidiaries, including Easterly Government Properties LP, a Delaware limited partnership, which we refer to herein as the “operating partnership.” We present certain financial information and metrics “at Easterly Share,” which is calculated on an entity-by-entity basis. “At Easterly Share” information, which we also refer to as being “at share,” “pro rata,” “our pro rata share” or “our share” is not, and is not intended to be, a presentation in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

We are an internally managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”), focused primarily on the acquisition, development and management of Class A commercial properties that are leased to U.S. Government agencies that serve essential functions. We generate substantially all of our revenue by leasing our properties to such agencies, either directly or through the U.S. General Services Administration (“GSA”). Our objective is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders over the long term through dividends and capital appreciation.

We focus on acquiring, developing and managing U.S. Government-leased properties that are essential to supporting the mission of the tenant agency and strive to be a partner of choice for the U.S. Government, working closely with the tenant agency to meet its needs and objectives. We may also consider other potential opportunities to add properties to our portfolio, including acquiring properties leased to states and local governments with strong creditworthiness. As of June 30, 2023, we wholly owned 78 operating properties and eight operating properties through an unconsolidated joint venture (the “JV”) in the United States encompassing approximately 8.6 million leased square feet (8.1 million pro rata), including 85 operating properties that were leased primarily to U.S. Government tenant agencies and one operating property that was entirely leased to a private tenant. As of June 30, 2023, our operating properties were 98% leased. For purposes of calculating percentage leased, we exclude from the denominator total square feet that was unleased and to which we attributed no value at the time of acquisition. In addition, we wholly owned one property under development that we expect will encompass approximately 0.2 million leased square feet upon completion.

The operating partnership holds substantially all of our assets and conducts substantially all of our business. We are the sole general partner of the operating partnership and owned approximately 88.4% of the aggregate limited partnership interests in the operating partnership, which we refer to herein as common units, as of June 30, 2023. We have elected to be taxed as a REIT and we believe that we have operated and have been organized in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2015.

22

Operating Properties

As of June 30, 2023, our operating properties were 98% leased with a weighted average annualized lease income per leased square foot of $35.45 ($35.12 pro rata) and a weighted average age of approximately 14.4 years based on the date the property was built or renovated-to-suit, where applicable. We calculate annualized lease income as annualized contractual base rent for the last month in a specified period, plus the annualized straight line rent adjustments for the last month in such period and the annualized net expense reimbursements earned by us for the last month in such period.

Certain of our leases are currently in the “soft-term” period of the lease, meaning that the U.S. Government tenant agency has the right to terminate the lease prior to its stated lease end date. We believe that, from the U.S. Government’s perspective, leases with such provisions are helpful for budgetary purposes. While some of our leases are contractually subject to early termination, we do not believe that our tenant agencies are likely to terminate these leases early given the build-to-suit features at the properties subject to the leases, the weighted average age of these properties based on the date the property was built or renovated-to-suit, where applicable (approximately 19.1 years as of June 30, 2023), the mission-critical focus of the properties subject to the leases and the current level of operations at such properties.

The following table sets forth a schedule of lease expirations for leases in place (including for wholly owned properties and properties held by the JV) as of June 30, 2023:

Some tenants have the right to vacate their space during a specified period, or “soft term,” before the stated terms of their leases expire. As of June 30, 2023, 19 tenants occupying approximately 6.6% of our leased square feet and contributing approximately 6.5% of our annualized lease income have exercisable rights to terminate their lease before the stated term of their respective lease expires.

The $3.4 million decrease in Rental income is primarily attributable to a decrease in revenues from the ten properties disposed of since June 30, 2022, offset by the one operating property acquired since June 30, 2022, as well as a full period of operations from the two operating properties acquired during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

The $1.6 million increase in Tenant reimbursements is primarily attributable to an increase in tenant project reimbursements.

The $0.2 million increase in Asset management income is attributable to the fee we earned for asset management on two operating properties acquired by the JV since June 30, 2022, as well as a full period of operations from two operating properties acquired during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

The $0.2 million increase in Other income is primarily attributable to an increase in project overhead income from our tenant reimbursable projects.

The $1.7 million decrease in Depreciation and amortization is also primarily attributable to the ten properties disposed of since June 30, 2022, offset by the one operating property acquired since June 30, 2022, as well as a full period of operations from the two operating properties acquired during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

27

The $1.1 million increase in Corporate general and administrative was primarily due to an increase in employee costs.

Income from unconsolidated real estate venture

The $0.6 million increase in Income from unconsolidated real estate venture is primarily attributable to our pro rata share of operations from two operating properties acquired by the JV since June 30, 2022, as well as a full period of operations from two operating properties acquired during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Interest expense, net

The $0.2 million increase in Interest expense, net is primarily related to higher interest rates on our revolving credit facility.

Interest expense, net

The $1.4 million increase in Interest expense, net is primarily related to higher interest rates on our revolving credit facility.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We anticipate that our cash flows from the sources listed below will provide adequate capital for the next 12 months for all anticipated uses, including all scheduled principal and interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness, current and anticipated tenant improvements, planned and possible acquisitions of properties, including the two remaining properties in the portfolio of ten properties anticipated to be acquired through the JV (the “VA Portfolio”), stockholder distributions to maintain our qualification as a REIT, repurchases of common stock under our share repurchase program and other capital obligations associated with conducting our business. At June 30, 2023, we had $21.8 million available in cash and cash equivalents and there was $396.9 million available under our revolving credit facility.

Our primary expected sources of capital are as follows:

•cash and cash equivalents;

•operating cash flow;

•distribution of cash flows from the JV;

•available borrowings under our revolving credit facility;

•issuance of long-term debt;

•issuance of equity, including under our ATM Programs (as described below); and

•asset sales.

Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds to pay for the following:

•development and redevelopment activities, including major redevelopment, renovation or expansion programs at individual properties;

•property acquisitions under contract, including our pro rata share of the two remaining VA Portfolio properties;

•tenant improvements, allowances and leasing costs;

29

•recurring maintenance and capital expenditures;

•debt repayment requirements;

•corporate and administrative costs;

•interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness;

•interest swap payments;

•distribution payments; and

•repurchases of common stock under our share repurchase program.

Our long-term liquidity needs, in addition to recurring short-term liquidity needs as discussed above, consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions, non-recurring capital expenditures, and scheduled debt maturities. Although we may be able to anticipate and plan for certain of our liquidity needs, unexpected increases in uses of cash that are beyond our control and which affect our financial condition and results of operations may arise, or our sources of liquidity may be fewer than, and the funds available from such sources may be less than, anticipated or required. As of the date of this filing, there were no known commitments or events that would have a material impact on our liquidity.

Equity

Offering of Common Stock on a Forward Basis

On August 11, 2021, we completed an underwritten public offering of 6,300,000 shares of common stock offered on a forward basis. In connection with the offering, we also entered into separate forward sale agreements with each of the forward purchasers (the “Forward Sales Agreements”), pursuant to which the forward purchasers borrowed and sold to the underwriters an aggregate of 6,300,000 shares of our common stock. On December 28, 2021, we issued 3,991,000 shares of our common stock for net proceeds of $85.0 million, which shares were issued in partial settlement of the Forward Sales Agreements entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we issued 2,309,000 shares of common stock under the Forward Sale Agreements and received net cash proceeds of approximately $46.8 million. As of June 30, 2023, all shares of common stock under the Forward Sales Agreements had been issued and settled.

ATM Programs

We entered into separate equity distribution agreements on each of December 20, 2019 (the “2019 ATM Program”) and June 22, 2021 (the “2021 ATM Program” and, together with the 2019 ATM Program, the “ATM Programs”) with various financial institutions pursuant to which we may issue and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $300.0 million under each ATM Program from time to time in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. Under each of the ATM Programs, we may enter into one or more forward transactions (each, a “forward sale transaction”) under separate master forward sale confirmations and related supplemental confirmations with each of the various financial institutions party to the respective ATM Program for the sale of shares of our common stock on a forward basis.

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to issuances under the 2019 ATM Program during the six months ended June 30, 2023 (amounts in thousands, except share amounts):

	2019 ATM Program
For the three months ended	Number of Shares Issued(1)		Net Proceeds(1)
March 31, 2023		250,000	$	5,562
June 30, 2023		—		—
Total		250,000	$	5,562

(1)Shares issued by us, which were all issued in settlement of forward sales transactions. Additionally, as of June 30, 2023, we had entered into forward sales transactions under the 2019 ATM Program for the sale of an additional 1,700,000 shares of our common stock that have not yet been settled. Subject to our right to elect net share settlement, we expect to physically settle the forward sales transactions by the maturity dates set forth in each applicable forward sale transaction placement notice, which dates range from August 2023 to July 2024. Assuming the forward sales transactions are physically settled in full utilizing a net weighted average initial forward sales price of $21.61 per share, we expect to receive net proceeds of

30

approximately $36.7 million, after deducting offering costs, subject to adjustments in accordance with the applicable forward sale transaction. We accounted for the forward sale transactions as equity.

No sales of shares of our common stock were made under the 2021 ATM Program during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

We used the net proceeds received from such sales for general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2023, we had approximately $300.0 million of gross sales of our common stock available under the 2021 ATM Program and $87.4 million of gross sales of our common stock available under the 2019 ATM Program.

Share Repurchase Program

On April 28, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program whereby we may repurchase up to 4,538,994 shares of our common stock, or approximately 5% of our outstanding shares as of the authorization date. We are not required to purchase shares under the share repurchase program but may choose to do so in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions at times and amounts based on our evaluation of market conditions and other factors.

No repurchases of shares of our common stock were made under the share repurchase program during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

(1)At June 30, 2023, the USD SOFR with a five day lookback (“S”) was 5.06%. The current interest rate is not adjusted to include the amortization of deferred financing fees or debt issuance costs incurred in obtaining debt or any unamortized fair market value premiums. The spread over the applicable rate for each of our $450.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (our “revolving credit facility”), our $200.0 million senior unsecured term loan facility (as amended, our “2018 term loan facility”) and our $100.0 million senior unsecured term loan facility (our “2016 term loan facility”) is based on our consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in the respective loan agreements.

(2)Our revolving credit facility had available capacity of $396.9 million at June 30, 2023 with an accordion feature that permits us to request additional lender commitments for up to $250.0 million of additional capacity, subject to the satisfaction of customary terms and conditions.

(3)Entered into one interest rate swap with an effective date of June 23, 2023 with a notional value of $100.0 million, of which $50.0 million is associated with our revolving credit facility, to effectively fix the interest rate at 5.36% annually, based on our consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in our revolving credit facility agreement.

32

(4)Our revolving credit facility has two six-month as-of-right extension options subject to certain conditions and the payment of an extension fee.

(5)Our 2018 term loan facility has undrawn capacity up to $50.0 million of which is available during a delayed draw period.

(6)Entered into two interest rate swaps with an effective date of March 29, 2017 with an aggregate notional value of $100.0 million to effectively fix the interest rate at 2.72% annually, based on our consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in our 2016 term loan facility agreement. We transitioned the two interest rate swaps from LIBOR to SOFR effective November 29, 2022.

(7)Entered into two interest rate swaps with an effective date of June 23, 2023 with an aggregate notional value of $200.0 million, of which $150.0 million is associated with our 2018 term loan facility, to effectively fix the interest rate at 5.42% annually, based on our consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in our 2018 term loan facility agreement.

(8)Effective interest rates are as follows: VA – Golden 5.03%, USFS II – Albuquerque 3.92%, ICE – Charleston 3.93%, VA – Loma Linda 3.78%, CBP – Savannah 4.12%, USCIS – Kansas City 2.05%.

On January 26, 2023, we used $15.7 million of available cash to extinguish the mortgage note obligation on DEA – Pleasanton.

On February 3, 2023, we entered into three SOFR-based interest rate swaps each with a notional value of $100.0 million that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. Two of the interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional value of $200.0 million, became effective in June 2023. The third swap, with a notional value of $100.0 million, will become effective when our existing swaps mature in September 2023. For more information on our interest rate swaps, see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

On May 30, 2023, we entered into the third amendment to our second amended and restated credit agreement, dated as of July 23, 2021 and into the sixth amendment to our senior unsecured term loan agreement, dated as of September 29, 2016. These amendments added a daily simple SOFR-based option to the term SOFR-based floating interest rate option as a benchmark rate for borrowings denominated in U.S. dollars for all purposes under the credit and term loan agreements, including, in each case, a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%.

On July 20, 2023, we drew the full $50.0 million delayed draw on our 2018 term loan facility and transferred $50.0 million of our interest rate swap with a notional value of $100.0 million, from our revolving credit facility to the $50.0 million delayed draw.

Our revolving credit facility, term loan facilities, notes payable, and mortgage notes payable are subject to ongoing compliance with a number of financial and other covenants. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all applicable financial covenants.

The chart below details our debt capital structure as of June 30, 2023 (dollar amounts in thousands):

Total principal outstanding	$	1,225,786
Weighted average maturity	5.2 years
Weighted average interest rate		3.8	%
% Variable debt		0.2	%
% Fixed debt (1)		99.8	%

(1)Our 2016 term loan facility, 2018 term loan facility and $50 million of our revolving credit facility are swapped to be fixed and as such are included as fixed rate debt in the table above.

Material Cash Commitments

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no material changes to the cash commitment information presented in Item 7 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Unconsolidated Real Estate Venture

We consolidate entities in which we have a controlling interest or are the primary beneficiary in a variable interest entity. From time to time, we may have off-balance sheet unconsolidated real estate ventures and other unconsolidated arrangements with varying structures.

33

As of June 30, 2023, we have invested $268.6 million in the JV. As of June 30, 2023, we committed capital, net of return of over committed capital, to the JV totaling $274.1 million and have a remaining capital commitment of $64.2 million. None of the properties owned by the JV are encumbered by mortgage indebtedness.

For a more complete description of the JV, see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Dividend Policy

In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute to our stockholders, on an annual basis, at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains. We anticipate distributing all of our taxable income. We expect to make quarterly distributions to our stockholders in a manner intended to satisfy this requirement. Prior to making any distributions for U.S. federal tax purposes or otherwise, we must first satisfy our operating and debt service obligations. It is possible that it would be necessary to utilize cash reserves, liquidate assets at unfavorable prices or incur additional indebtedness in order to make required distributions. It is also possible that our board of directors could decide to make required distributions in part by using shares of our common stock.

A summary of dividends declared by the board of directors per share of common stock and per common unit at the date of record is as follows:

Quarter	Declaration Date	Record Date	Payment Date	Dividend (1)
Q1 2023	April 26, 2023	May 11, 2023	May 23, 2023	$	0.265
Q2 2023	August 2, 2023	August 17, 2023	August 29, 2023	$	0.265

(1)Prior to the end of the performance period as set forth in the applicable LTIP unit award, holders of performance-based LTIP units are entitled to receive dividends per LTIP unit equal to 10% of the dividend paid per common unit. After the end of the performance period, the number of LTIP units, both vested and unvested, that LTIP award recipients have earned, if any, are entitled to receive dividends in an amount per LTIP unit equal to dividends, both regular and special, payable per common unit. Holders of LTIP units that are not subject to the attainment of performance goals are entitled to receive dividends per LTIP unit equal to 100% of the dividend paid per common unit beginning on the grant date.

Inflation

Substantially all of our leases provide for operating expense escalations. We believe inflationary increases in expenses may be at least partially offset by the operating expenses that are passed through to our tenants and by contractual rent increases. We do not believe inflation has had a material impact on our historical financial position or results of operations.

Cash Flows

The following table sets forth a summary of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (amounts in thousands):

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $55.6 million in dividend payments, $17.8 million in mortgage notes payable repayment, $12.5 million in net pay downs under our revolving credit facility and $0.1 million in the payment of offering costs, offset by $52.4 million in gross proceeds from issuance of shares of our common stock. Net cash generated by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 includes $128.3 million in net draws under our revolving credit facility and $9.5 million in gross proceeds from issuances of shares of our common stock, offset by $54.4 million in dividend payments, $2.6 million in mortgage notes payable repayment and $0.1 million in the payment of offering costs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use and present Funds From Operations (“FFO”), Core FFO and FFO, as Adjusted as supplemental measures of our performance. The summary below describes our use of FFO, Core FFO and FFO, as Adjusted, provides information regarding why we believe these measures are meaningful supplemental measures of our performance and reconciles these measures from net income, presented in accordance with GAAP.

35

Funds From Operations and Funds From Operations, as Adjusted

FFO is a supplemental measure of our performance. We present FFO calculated in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) definition set forth in the Nareit FFO White Paper – Restatement 2018. FFO includes the REIT’s share of FFO generated by unconsolidated affiliates. In addition, we present Core FFO and FFO, as Adjusted for certain other adjustments that we believe enhance the comparability of our FFO across periods and to the FFO reported by other publicly traded REITs. FFO is a supplemental performance measure that is commonly used in the real estate industry to assist investors and analysts in comparing results of REITs.

FFO is defined by Nareit as net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding:

•Depreciation and amortization related to real estate.

•Gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets.

•Gains and losses from change in control.

•Impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity.

We present FFO because we consider it an important supplemental measure of our operating performance, and we believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting results.

We adjust FFO to present Core FFO as an alternative measure of our operating performance, which, when applicable, excludes items which we believe are not representative of ongoing operating results, such as liability management related costs (including losses on extinguishment of debt and modification costs), catastrophic event charges, depreciation of non-real estate assets, and the unconsolidated real estate venture's allocated share of these adjustments. In future periods, we may also exclude other items from Core FFO that we believe may help investors compare our results. We believe Core FFO more accurately reflects the ongoing operational and financial performance of our core business.

We adjust FFO to present FFO, as Adjusted as an alternative measure of our operating performance, which, when applicable, excludes the impact of losses on extinguishment of debt, depreciation of non-real estate assets, acquisition costs, straight-line rent and other non-cash adjustments, amortization of deferred revenue (which results from landlord assets funded by tenants), non-cash interest expense, non-cash compensation, amortization of above-/below-market leases, and the unconsolidated real estate venture’s allocated share of these adjustments. By excluding these income and expense items from FFO, as Adjusted, we believe we provide useful information as these items have no cash impact. In addition, by excluding acquisition related costs, we believe FFO, as Adjusted provides useful information that is comparable across periods and more accurately reflects the operating performance of our properties.

FFO, Core FFO and FFO, as Adjusted are presented as supplemental financial measures and do not fully represent our operating performance. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating FFO, Core FFO and FFO, as Adjusted or use other definitions of FFO, Core FFO and FFO, as Adjusted and, accordingly, our presentation of these measures may not be comparable to other REITs. Neither FFO, Core FFO nor FFO, as Adjusted are intended to be a measure of cash flow or liquidity. Please refer to our financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP, for purposes of evaluating our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. We base these estimates, judgments, and assumptions on historical experience, current trends, and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, or different assumptions were made, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, resulting in different financial results or a different presentation of our financial statements.

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 contains a discussion of our significant accounting policies, which utilize relevant critical accounting estimates. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no material changes to the discussion of our significant accounting policies included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. Our future earnings, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevailing market interest rates. Our primary market risk results from our indebtedness, which bears interest at both fixed and variable rates. We manage and may continue to manage our market risk on variable rate debt by entering into swap arrangements to, in effect, fix the rate on all or a portion of the debt for varying periods up to maturity. This in turn, reduces the risks of variability of cash flows created by variable rate debt and mitigates the risk of increases in interest rates. Our objective when undertaking such arrangements is to reduce our floating rate exposure and we do not intend to enter into hedging arrangements for speculative purposes. For more information on our interest rate swaps, see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

As of June 30, 2023, $1.2 billion, or 99.8% of our debt, excluding unamortized premiums and discounts, had fixed interest rates and $3.0 million, or 0.2% had variable interest rates. If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt fluctuate by 25 basis points, interest expense would increase or decrease, depending on rate movement, future earnings and cash flows, by less than $0.1 million annually.

As of June 30, 2023, each of the agreements governing our variable rate debt have been transitioned to SOFR.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation required by the Exchange Act, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a -15(e) and Rule 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2023. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
