Dallas TX – April 28, 2022 – NETSTREIT Corp. (NYSE: NTST) or (the “Company”), today announced financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022.

“We're excited about our first quarter results and the outlook for the rest of 2022. We continue to find new and attractive opportunities to grow our base of investments and completed $135.6 million of net investment activity in the first quarter, including the acquisition of our first Publix grocery store, an investment grade profile tenant. In addition, we completed our first forward offering of over 10.3 million shares of our common equity early in the year, which positions us to continue our consistent growth in 2022 without a significant equity funding need to achieve our increased investment targets," said Mark Manheimer, Chief Executive Officer of NETSTREIT.

FIRST QUARTER 2022 HIGHLIGHTS2

Net income per share increased to $0.04, compared to $0.02 from prior year period
Core Funds from Operations (“Core FFO”) per share increased to $0.28, compared to $0.22 from prior year period
AFFO per share increased to $0.29, compared to $0.23 from prior year period

PORTFOLIO UPDATE

As of March 31, 2022, the NETSTREIT portfolio was comprised of 361 leases with 71 total tenants, contributing $77.0 million of annualized base rent3, with a weighted-average remaining lease term of 9.64 years, of which 63.9% were occupied by investment grade rated tenants and 16.7% were occupied by tenants with investment grade profiles5. The portfolio remained 100.0% occupied as of March 31, 2022.

INVESTMENT ACTIVITY

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company had total net investment activity of $135.6 million, which includes acquisitions, developments where rent commenced, and a mortgage loan receivable guaranteed by an investment grade tenant, net of dispositions.

The Company invested approximately $90.0 million in the acquisition of 34 properties at an initial cash capitalization rate of 6.3%. Acquisitions completed during the quarter had a weighted-average remaining lease term of 8.2 years.

The Company commenced rent at two development projects that had total costs of $7.6 million, and a weighted average investment yield of 7.6%. The Company also provided $5.0 million of funding to support on-going development projects, which includes one new development for an investment grade profile tenant.




During the quarter, the Company entered into an 18-month $40.4 million mortgage loan receivable with an interest rate of 6.0%. The mortgage note is secured by underlying assets including a high performing Home Depot in the Portland, Oregon, MSA. The Company will have the right to convert the loan to fee simple ownership upon the completion of certain conditions from the borrower.

The Company completed one disposition in the first quarter. The Company sold a casual dining restaurant for a contractual sales price of $2.4 million, which equated to a 5.5% cash capitalization rate.

The investment grade and investment grade profile totals for the quarter (including acquisitions, developments where rent commenced, and the mortgage loan receivable) were 56.5% and 21.0%, respectively, based on total annualized base rent and interest income6. The quarter's transaction activity enhanced the portfolio diversification, increasing the total tenant count from 67 at the end of 2021 to 71 tenants and increasing geographic diversity from 41 to 42 states.

BALANCE SHEET AND LIQUIDITY

In January, the Company entered into forward sale agreements related to 10,350,000 shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $22.25 per share. On March 30, 2022, the Company settled a portion of shares subject to forward sale agreements and issued 3,440,962 shares of common stock, receiving net proceeds of $72.0 million, after deducting fees and expenses. The Company has until January 10, 2023 to settle the remaining shares subject to the forward sales agreements.

During the quarter, the Company issued 163,774 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $22.08 per share in connection with the ATM program for net proceeds of approximately $3.5 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and transaction costs of $0.1 million.

At quarter end, total debt outstanding was $295.0 million, with a weighted average term of 2.3 years and a quarter end contractual interest rate, including the impact of the fixed rate swap, of 1.5% (excluding the impact of deferred fee amortization). 59% of the Company’s debt was at a fixed rate and the Company’s net debt to annualized adjusted EBITDA ratio was 4.6x. After giving consideration to the remaining shares in the forward sales agreement, the Company's net debt to annualized adjusted EBITDA ratio was 2.3x. Additionally, the ending cash balance was $4.7 million, and the Company had $120.0 million outstanding on its revolving line of credit.

DIVIDEND

On April 26, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share for the second quarter of 2022, which will be paid on June 15, 2022 to shareholders of record on June 1, 2022.

2022 OUTLOOK

The Company is increasing its full year 2022 AFFO per share guidance by improving the range to $1.14 to $1.17 per share and net investment guidance to at least $500.0 million in 2022. This guidance is based on the following assumptions:

Increased investment activity, including acquisitions, developments where rent commenced, mortgage loan receivables, and net of dispositions, of at least $500.0 million in 2022
The Company expects cash G&A to be in the range of $14.5 million to $15.0 million (inclusive of transaction costs), and expects non-cash compensation expense to be in the range of $5.0 million to $5.5 million
Due to the current rate environment, the Company is increasing the cash interest expense expectation to a range of $5.5 million to $6.5 million, with approximately $0.6 million of additional non-cash deferred financing fee amortization

2



Full year 2022 diluted weighted average shares outstanding, which includes the impact of OP units, are expected to be in the range of 52.0 million to 54.0 million shares

Certain of the forward-looking financial measures above are provided on a non-GAAP basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP because to do so would be potentially misleading and not practical given 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

FFO, Core FFO and AFFO

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), an industry trade group, has promulgated a widely accepted non-GAAP financial measure of operating performance known as FFO. Our FFO is net income in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) resulting from dispositions of properties, plus depreciation and amortization and impairment charges on depreciable real property.

Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as FFO adjusted to remove the effect of unusual and non-recurring items that are not expected to impact our operating performance or operations on an ongoing basis. Historically, these have included gains from forfeited earnest money deposits, non-recurring public company costs, and gains from insurance proceeds.

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 and amortization of loan origination 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 FFO, 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 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 expense, income tax expense, 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 impairment charges on depreciable real property.

Adjusted EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as EBITDAre further adjusted to exclude straight-line rent 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.

9



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 (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding general and administrative expenses, interest expense (or income), income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, gains (or losses) from the sales of depreciable property, impairment charges on depreciable real property, transaction costs, and other income (or expense). We further adjust NOI for non-cash 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.

(1) These expenses represent a subset of transaction costs as presented on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
