NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2018

(Unaudited, dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Readers of this Quarterly Report should refer to the audited consolidated financial statements of Inland Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (which may be referred to herein as the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) for the year ended December 31, 2017, which are included in the Company’s 2017 Annual Report, as certain footnote disclosures contained in such audited consolidated financial statements have been omitted from this Quarterly Report.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

The Company was formed on August 24, 2011 to acquire and manage a portfolio of commercial real estate investments located in the United States. The Company has acquired retail properties.  The Company has invested in joint ventures and may continue to invest in additional joint ventures or acquire other real estate assets such as office and medical office buildings, multi-family properties and industrial/distribution and warehouse facilities if its management believes the expected returns from those investments exceed that of retail properties. The Company also may invest in real estate-related equity securities of both publicly traded and private real estate companies, as well as commercial mortgage-backed securities.

The Company entered into a Business Management Agreement with IREIT Business Manager & Advisor, Inc. (the “Business Manager”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation (the “Sponsor”), to be the Business Manager to the Company.

At March 31, 2018, the Company owned 59 retail properties, totaling 6,870,124 square feet.  The properties are located in 24 states.  At March 31, 2018, the portfolio had a weighted average physical occupancy of 93.7% and economic occupancy of 94.5%. Economic occupancy excludes square footage associated with an earnout component.

On January 16, 2018, the Company effected a 1-for-2.5 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock whereby every 2.5 shares of issued and outstanding common stock were converted into one share of its common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). In accordance with U.S. GAAP, all share information presented has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Disclosures discussing all significant accounting policies are set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2018, under the heading Note 2 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2018, except as noted below.

General

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement, in all material respects, of the financial position and results of operations for the periods are presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

Certain amounts in the prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which requires that amounts described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included in beginning and ending-of-period reconciliation of cash shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-18 on a retrospective basis as of March 31, 2018. The Company now includes restricted cash in beginning, change and ending-of-period total amounts on the statement of cash flows rather than within an activity on the statement of

8


INLAND REAL ESTATE INCOME TRUST, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

(Unaudited, dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)

cash flows. The Company applied ASU No. 2016-18 retrospecti vely to all prior periods presented that resulted in a decrease of $580 in net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Amounts included in restricted cash represent those required to be set aside by lenders for real estate taxes, insurance, capital expenditures and tenant improvements on our existing properties. These amounts also include post close escrows for tenant improvements, leasing commissions, master lease, general repairs and maintenance, and are classified as restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets to such amounts shown in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows:

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The Company selected the modified retrospective transition method which would include a cumulative effect of applying the standard on January 1, 2018. As the Company has reviewed its revenue streams and has concluded its previous recognition of revenue is in compliance with the new standard, no cumulative effect adjustment is required. Common area maintenance reimbursements that may be impacted will not be addressed until the Company's adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) considering its revisions to accounting for common area maintenance.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities . The purpose of this updated guidance is to better align a company’s financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. ASU 2017-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption, including adoption in an interim period, permitted. The Company is evaluating whether it will early adopt the amendment during 2018. ASU 2017-12 requires a modified retrospective transition method in which the Company will recognize the cumulative effect of the change on the opening balance of each affected component of equity in the statement of financial position as of the date of adoption. The Company continues to assess all potential impacts of the standard.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. The FASB also issued an Exposure Draft on January 5, 2018 proposing to amend ASU 2016-02, which would provide lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying assets, to not separate non-lease components from the related lease components and, instead, to account for those components as a single lease component, if certain criteria are met. ASU 2016-02 and the related Exposure Draft are not effective for the Company until January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is continuing to evaluate this guidance and the impact to it, as both lessor and lessee, on its consolidated financial statements. The Company expects to utilize the practical expedients proposed in the Exposure Draft as part of its adoption of ASU 2016-02. The Company is also the lessee under a ground lease, which it will be required to recognize right of use asset and a related lease liability on its consolidated balance sheets upon adoption.

NOTE 3 – EQUITY

The Company commenced an initial public “best efforts” offering (the “Offering”) on October 18, 2012, which concluded on October 16, 2015. The Company issued 33,534,022 shares of common stock generating gross proceeds of $834,399 from the Offering.  As of March 31, 2018, there were 35,335,288 shares of common stock outstanding including 3,634,860 shares issued through the distribution reinvestment plan (“DRP”), net of 1,834,037 shares repurchased through the share repurchase program (“SRP”).

INLAND REAL ESTATE INCOME TRUST, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

(Unaudited, dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)

On March 20, 2018, the Company’s board of directors determined an estimated per share net asset value (the “Estimated Per Share NAV”) as reported in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 21, 2018.  The Company’s previously estimated per share net asset value was established on March 29, 2017.

The Company provides the following programs to facilitate additional investment in the Company’s shares and to provide limited liquidity for stockholders.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan

The Company provides stockholders with the option to purchase additional shares from the Company by automatically reinvesting distributions through the DRP, subject to certain share ownership restrictions. The Company does not pay any selling commissions or a marketing contribution and due diligence expense allowance in connection with the DRP. Pursuant to the DRP, the price per share for shares of common stock purchased under the DRP is equal to the estimated value of a share, as determined by the Company’s board of directors and reported by the Company from time to time, until the shares become listed for trading, if a listing occurs, assuming that the DRP has not been terminated or suspended in connection with such listing.

Distributions reinvested through the DRP were $2,254 and $6,780 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Share Repurchase Program

The Company adopted a share repurchase program effective October 18, 2012 which was subsequently amended effective January 1, 2018 to change the processing of repurchase requests from a monthly to a quarterly basis to align with the move to quarterly distributions.  Under the amended and restated SRP, the Company is authorized to purchase shares from stockholders who purchased their shares from the Company or received their shares through a non-cash transfer and who have held their shares for at least one year, if requested, if the Company chooses to purchase them. Subject to funds being available, the Company limits the number of shares repurchased during any calendar year to 5% of the number of shares outstanding on December 31 st of the previous calendar year, as adjusted by the Reverse Stock Split. Funding for the SRP comes from proceeds the Company receives from the DRP during the same period. In the case of repurchases made upon the death of a stockholder or qualifying disability, as defined in the SRP, the one year holding period does not apply. The SRP will immediately terminate if the Company’s shares become listed for trading on a national securities exchange. In addition, the Company’s board of directors, in its sole direction, may, at any time, amend, suspend or terminate the SRP.

Pursuant to the SRP, the Company may repurchase shares at prices ranging from 92.5% of the “share price,” as defined in the SRP, for stockholders who have owned shares for at least one year to 100% of the “share price” for stockholders who have owned shares for at least four years. For repurchases sought upon a stockholder’s death or qualifying disability, the Company may repurchase shares at a price equal to 100% of the “share price.” As used in the SRP, “share price” means the lesser of (1) the offering price of the Company’s shares in the Offering (unless the shares were purchased at a discount from that price, and then that purchase price), as adjusted by the Reverse Stock Split, reduced by any distributions of net sale proceeds that the Company designates as constituting a return of capital; or (2) the most recently disclosed estimated value per share.

Repurchases through the SRP were $5,782 and $2,737 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company’s liability related to the SRP was $5,782 and $2,530, respectively, recorded in other liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 4 – ACQUISITIONS

Credit Facility Payable

The Company’s credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) in the amount of $110,000 has an accordion feature that allows for an increase in available borrowings up to $400,000, subject to certain conditions. The Credit Facility matures on September 30, 2019, and the Company has a one year extension option which it may exercise as long as certain conditions are met.

At March 31, 2018, the interest rate on the Credit Facility was 3.53%. As of March 31, 2018, the Company had $14,200 available for borrowing under the Credit Facility.

The Credit Facility requires compliance with certain covenants, as amended, including a minimum tangible net worth requirement, a distribution limitation, restrictions on indebtedness and investment restrictions, as defined. It also contains customary default provisions including the failure to comply with the Company's covenants and the failure to pay when amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility become due.  The Company is in compliance with all financial covenants related to the Credit Facility.

Mortgages Payable

The mortgage loans require compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service ratios, investment restrictions and distribution limitations. As of March 31, 2018, the Company was current on all of the payments and in compliance with all financial covenants. All of the Company’s mortgage loans are secured by first mortgages on the respective real estate assets. As of March 31, 2018, the weighted average years to maturity for the Company’s mortgages payable was approximately 4.2 years.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Company entered into interest rate swaps to fix certain of its floating LIBOR based debt under variable rate loans to a fixed rate to manage its risk exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The Company will generally match the maturity of the underlying variable rate debt with the maturity date on the interest swap. See Note 14 - "Fair Value Measurements" for further information.

in an amount equal to $0.335 per share, which represents an annualized rate of 6% based on the Estimated Per Share NAV, payable in arrears the following quarter.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company paid distributions based on daily record dates, payable in arrears the following month, equal to a daily amount of $0.00410959 per share, based upon a 365-day year. The Company paid distributions of $13,070 and declared distributions of $13,105 during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

NOTE 9 – EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period (the “common shares”). Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the common shares plus common share equivalents. The Company excludes antidilutive restricted shares and units from the calculation of weighted-average shares for diluted EPS. As a result of a net loss in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, 1,743 shares and 2,832 shares, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS, because they would have been antidilutive.

The Company may be subject, from time to time, to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes, based on currently available information, that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In conjunction with its equity investment in the Mainstreet JV, the Company also agreed to provide subsidiaries of the Mainstreet JV mezzanine loans, in the aggregate amount of approximately $5,430. The loan term is for 48 months. The Company earns interest at a rate of 14.5% per annum and receives monthly interest payments based on a 10% pay rate. The remaining unpaid interest will be due at maturity or upon certain defined events. The mezzanine loans are guaranteed by one of the other members of the joint venture. The borrowers may draw on the mezzanine loans from time to time in connection with the construction of the rapid recovery healthcare facilities. At March 31, 2018, the Company has advanced $4,806 related to the mezzanine loans which are included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The remaining amount to be drawn on the mezzanine loans is $624.

NOTE 11 – EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION

Under the Company’s Employee and Director Restricted Share Plan (“RSP”), restricted shares and restricted share units generally vest over a one to three year vesting period from the date of the grant, subject to the specific terms of the grant. In accordance with the RSP, restricted shares and restricted share units were issued to non-employee directors as compensation. Each restricted share and restricted share unit entitle the holder to receive one common share when it vests. Restricted shares and restricted share units are included in common stock outstanding on the date of vesting. The grant-date value of the restricted shares and restricted share units is amortized over the vesting period representing the requisite service period. Compensation expense associated with the restricted shares and restricted share units issued to the non-employee directors was $11 and $6, in the aggregate, for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. As of March 31, 2018, the Company had $34 of unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested restricted shares and restricted share units, in the aggregate. The weighted average remaining period that compensation expense related to unvested restricted shares and restricted share units will be recognized is 1.5 years.

NOTE 14 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Hierarchy

The Company defines fair value based on the price that it believes would be received upon sale of an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which are described below:

Level 1 −

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.

Level 2 −

Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 −

Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The Company has estimated the fair value of its financial and non-financial instruments using available market information and valuation methodologies the Company believes to be appropriate for these purposes.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

For assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the table below presents the fair value of the Company’s cash flow hedges as well as their classification on the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

The fair value of derivative instruments was estimated based on data observed in the forward yield curve which is widely observed in the marketplace. The Company also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements which utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads. The Company has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivative interest rate swap agreements and therefore has classified these in Level 2 of the hierarchy.

NOTE 15 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis o f Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “goal,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “variables,” “potential,” “continue,” “expand,” “maintain,” “create,” “strategies,” “likely,” “will,” “would” and variations of these terms and similar expressions, or the negative of these terms or similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but reflect the intent, belief or current expectations of the management of Inland Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (which we refer to herein as the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) based on their knowledge and understanding of the business and industry, the economy and other future conditions. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and we caution stockholders not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including but not limited to the factors listed and described under “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2018, and factors described below:

Market disruptions may adversely impact many aspects of our operating results and operating condition;

Historically, we have not consistently generated sufficient cash flow from operations to pay distributions, and, therefore, we have paid distributions from the net proceeds of our reasonable “best efforts” offering (the “Offering”) and our distribution reinvestment plan (“DRP”), and may continue to pay distributions from other sources including the proceeds of our DRP, which reduces the amount of cash we ultimately have to invest in assets, negatively impacting the value of our stockholders’ investment and is dilutive to our stockholders;

We have incurred net losses on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) basis for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 and for the year ended December 31, 2017;

There is no established public trading market for our shares, our stockholders may not be able to sell their shares under our share repurchase program (“SRP”) and, if our stockholders are able to sell their shares under the SRP, or otherwise, they may not be able to recover the amount of their investment in our shares;

Our charter generally limits the total amount we may borrow to 300% of our net assets, equivalent to 75% of the costs of our assets;

Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation (our “Sponsor”) may face a conflict of interest in allocating personnel and resources between its affiliates, our Business Manager (as defined below) and Inland Commercial Real Estate Services LLC, referred to herein as our “Real Estate Manager”;

We do not have arm’s-length agreements with our Business Manager, our Real Estate Manager or any other affiliates of our Sponsor;

We pay fees, which may be significant, to our Business Manager, Real Estate Manager and other affiliates of our Sponsor;

Our Business Manager and its affiliates face conflicts of interest caused by their compensation arrangements with us, which could result in actions that are not in the long-term best interests of our stockholders;

Our properties may compete with the properties owned by other programs sponsored by our Sponsor or Inland Private Capital Corporation for, among other things, tenants;

Our Business Manager is under no obligation, and may not agree, to forgo or defer its business management fee or any acquisition fee; and

If we fail to continue to qualify as a REIT, our operations and distributions to stockholders will be adversely affected.

Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect our management’s view only as of the date of this Quarterly Report, and may ultimately prove to be incorrect or false. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results except as required by applicable law. We intend for these forward-looking statements to be covered by the applicable safe harbor provisions created by Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act.

The following discussion and analysis relates to the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 and as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. You should read the following discussion and analysis along with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in this report.

Overview

We were formed as a Maryland corporation on August 24, 2011 and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes (“REIT”) under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with the year ended December 31, 2013.  We are managed by our business manager, IREIT Business Manager & Advisor, Inc., referred to herein as our “Business Manager.”

We have acquired retail properties, and we have invested in a joint venture to develop three transitional care/rapid recovery centers in Texas. We may continue to invest in additional joint ventures or acquire other real estate assets such as office and medical office buildings, multi-family properties and industrial/distribution and warehouse facilities if management believes the expected returns from those investments exceed that of retail properties. We also may invest in real estate-related equity securities of both publicly traded and private real estate companies, as well as commercial mortgage-backed securities.

At March 31, 2018, we had total assets of approximately $1.4 billion and owned 59 properties located in 24 states containing approximately 6.9 million square feet.  A majority of our properties are multi-tenant, necessity-based retail shopping centers primarily located in major regional markets and growing secondary markets throughout the United States. The portfolio properties have staggered lease maturity dates and anchor tenants generally with strong credit ratings.

On January 16, 2018, we effected a 1-for-2.5 reverse stock split whereby every 2.5 shares of our issued and outstanding common stock were converted into one share of our common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of our outstanding shares was reduced from approximately 88,746,109 to approximately 35,498,444. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, all share information presented has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

We commenced our Offering on October 18, 2012, which concluded on October 16, 2015.  We sold 33,534,022 shares of common stock generating gross proceeds of $834.4 million from the Offering.  On March 20, 2018, our board of directors determined an estimated per share net asset value of our common stock of $22.35.  The previously estimated per share net asset value of $22.63 was established on March 29, 2017.

Company Highlights - Three Months Ended March 31, 2018

Mainstreet JV - In August 2017, we entered into, through a wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary, a joint venture agreement with a third party developer and its affiliates to develop three transitional care/rapid recovery centers in Texas. Our aggregate equity commitment is approximately $8.5 million, excluding costs and legal fees incurred in connection with this investment. In conjunction with this equity investment, we also agreed to provide subsidiaries of the joint venture mezzanine loans. At March 31, 2018, we have advanced $4.8 million related to the mezzanine loans and $0.6 million remains to be drawn on.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we completed development projects at two of our shopping centers.  We redeveloped a vacant restaurant at Harris Plaza adding 2,075 square feet and two additional units and added four small shop units totaling 7,100 square feet at Pick N Save Center. Together, the two projects cost $2.0 million, added five new tenants and additional annualized base rent of $0.4 million.

As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, our borrowings were 50% and 49%, respectively, of the purchase price of our investment properties. As of March 31, 2018, we had borrowed $9 5.8 million of the $110 million available under our Credit Facility. Our availability under the Credit Facility was $14.2 million as of March 31, 2018. At March 31, 2018 our cash and cash equivalents balance is $21.5 million.

The acquisition of certain of the Company’s properties included an earnout component to the purchase price that was recorded as a deferred investment property acquisition obligation. The maximum potential earnout payment was $1.3 million at March 31, 2018.

We used less cash in our investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease is primarily due to the purchase of Wilson Marketplace in the three months ended March 31, 2017 and no purchases of investment properties in 2018. The decrease in cash used in investing activities in 2018 is partially offset with an increase in capital improvements at certain of our properties and funding of notes receivable.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we generated approximately $20.0 million and $45.5 million, respectively, from borrowings. We also paid off mortgage debt for approximately $8.0 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we generated gross proceeds from the sale of shares

26


through the DRP, net of share repurchases, of approximately $4.0 million. During the three mon ths ended March 31, 2018, we generated no proceeds from the sale of shares through the DRP after share repurchases.  During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we paid approximately $4.5 million and $13.1 million, respectively, in distributions .

Distributions

For 2018, distributions are payable quarterly in arrears, and for 2017, distributions were payable monthly in arrears. A summary of the distributions declared, distributions paid and cash flows provided by operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 follows (Dollar amounts in thousands except per share amounts):

Results of Operations

The following discussions are based on our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. Dollar amounts are stated in thousands. We are continuing to evaluate strategies for improving and expanding our operations all with a view toward increasing stockholder value. Our board recently engaged Barclays to assist in this process.

This section describes and compares our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. We generate almost all of our net operating income from property operations. In order to evaluate our overall portfolio, management analyzes the net operating income of properties that we have owned and operated for both periods presented, in their entirety, referred to herein as “same store” properties. By evaluating the property net operating income of our “same store” properties, management is able to monitor the operations of our existing properties for comparable periods to measure the performance of our current portfolio and determine the effects of our new acquisitions on net income.

Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017

A total of 56 investment properties were acquired on or before January 1, 2017 and represent our “same store” properties during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.  “Non-same store,” as reflected in the table below, consists of properties acquired after January 1, 2017. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, three properties constituted non-same store properties and for the three months ended March 31, 2017, one property constituted non-same store properties. The following table presents the property net operating income broken out between same store and non-same store, prior to straight-line income, net, amortization of intangibles, interest, and depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, along with a reconciliation to net loss, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Net loss. Net loss was $2,240 and $1,804 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Total property net operating income. On a “same store” basis, comparing the results of operations of investment properties owned during the three months ended March 31, 2018 with the results of the same investment properties owned during three months ended March 31, 2017, property net operating income increased $128, total property income increased $615, and total property operating expenses including real estate tax expense increased $487.

The increase in “same store” total property income is primarily due to an increase in tenant recovery income.

The increase in “same store” total property operating expenses is primarily due to an increase in current year real estate tax expense, and property operating expenses.

“Non-same store” total property net operating income increased $627 during 2018 as compared to 2017. The increase is a result of acquiring three retail properties after January 1, 2017. On a “non-same store” basis, total property income increased $843 and total property operating expenses increased $216 during the year to date ended March 31, 2018 as compared to 2017 as a result of these acquisitions.

Straight-line income, net. Straight-line rent income decreased $11 in 2018 compared to 2017. This decrease is due to certain tenant rent abatements in 2017 that increased straight-line rental income.

28


Intangible amortization. Intangible amortization income decreased $391 in 2018 compared to 2017. The decrease is primarily attributable to intangible assets and liabilities being written off or fully amortized.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $17 in 2018 compared to 2017.  This increase is primarily due to higher stock administration expenses.

Acquisition related costs. Acquisition related expenses decreased $78 in 2018 compared to 2017. The decrease is attributable to a lower a number of acquisitions.

Business management fee. Business management fees increased $69 in 2018 compared to 2017. The increase is due to the acquisition of real estate which increased assets under management.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $175 in 2018 compared to 2017. The increase is primarily due to acquisitions in 2017.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased $666 in 2018 compared to 2017. The increase is primarily due to additional financing of properties after January 1, 2017, increased amounts drawn under the Credit Facility and higher interest rates on our floating debt.

Interest and other income. Interest and other income increased $60.  The increase is primarily due to interest earned on our note receivable which increased $4,800 during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Critical Accounting Policies

Disclosures discussing all critical accounting policies are set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2018, under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies.” There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP assumes the value of real estate assets is reduced over time due primarily to non-cash depreciation and amortization expense. Because real estate values may rise and fall with market conditions, operating results from real estate companies that use U.S. GAAP accounting may not present a complete view of their performance. We use Funds from Operations, or “FFO”, a widely accepted metric to evaluate our performance. FFO provides a supplemental

29


mea sure to compare our performance and operations to other REITs. Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or “NAREIT”, has promulgated a standard known as FFO, which it believes more accurately reflects the operating performance of a REIT. As defined by NAREIT, FFO means net income (loss) computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable properties, plus depreciation and amort ization and impairment charges on depreciable property after adjustments for unconsolidated entities in which the REIT holds an interest. We have adopted the NAREIT definition for computing FFO.

Under U.S. GAAP, acquisition related costs are treated differently if the acquisition is a business combination or an asset acquisition. An acquisition of a single property will likely be treated as an asset acquisition as opposed to a business combination and acquisition related costs will be capitalized rather than expensed when incurred. Publicly registered, non-listed REITs typically engage in a significant amount of acquisition activity in the early years of their operations, and thus incur significant acquisition related costs, during these initial years. Although other start up entities may engage in significant acquisition activity during their initial years, REITs such as us that are not listed on an exchange are unique in that they typically have a limited timeframe during which they acquire a significant number of properties and thus incur significant acquisition related costs. Due to the above factors and other unique features of publicly registered, non-listed REITs, the Institute for Portfolio Alternatives, or “IPA”, an industry trade group, published a standardized measure known as Modified Funds from Operations, or “MFFO”, which the IPA has promulgated as a supplemental measure for publicly registered non-listed REITs and which may be another appropriate supplemental measure to reflect the operating performance of a non-listed REIT.

MFFO excludes expensed costs associated with investing activities, some of which are acquisition related costs that affect our operations only in periods in which properties are acquired, and other non-operating items that are included in FFO. By excluding acquisition related costs, the use of MFFO provides another measure of our operating performance. Because MFFO may be a recognized measure of operating performance within the non-listed REIT industry, MFFO and the adjustments used to calculate it may be useful in order to evaluate our performance against other non-listed REITs. Like FFO, MFFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under U.S. GAAP, as detailed in the table below, and MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we continue to acquire a significant amount of properties. MFFO should only be used as a measurement of our operating performance while we are acquiring a significant amount of properties because it excludes, among other things, acquisition costs incurred during the periods in which properties were acquired.

We believe our definition of MFFO, a non-U.S. GAAP measure, is consistent with the IPA's Guideline 2010-01, Supplemental Performance Measure for Publicly Registered, Non-Listed REITs: Modified Funds from Operations, or the “Practice Guideline,” issued by the IPA in November 2010. The Practice Guideline defines MFFO as FFO further adjusted for the following items, as applicable, included in the determination of U.S. GAAP net income: acquisition fees and expenses; amounts relating to straight-line rents and amortization of above and below market lease assets and liabilities, accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; mark-to-market adjustments included in net income; nonrecurring gains or losses included in net income from the extinguishment or sale of debt, hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings where trading of such holdings is not a fundamental attribute of the business plan, unrealized gains or losses resulting from consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting, and after adjustments for consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, with such adjustments calculated to reflect MFFO on the same basis.

Our presentation of FFO and MFFO may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other REITs. We believe that the use of FFO and MFFO provides a more complete understanding of our operating performance to stockholders and to management, and when compared year over year, reflects the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs. Neither FFO nor MFFO is intended to be an alternative to “net income” or to “cash flows from operating activities” as determined by U.S. GAAP as a measure of our capacity to pay distributions. Management uses FFO and MFFO to compare our operating performance to that of other REITs and to assess our operating performance.

Subsequent Events

For information related to subsequent events, reference is made to Note 15 – “Subsequent Events” which is included in our March 31, 2018 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk

We are exposed to various market risks, including those caused by changes in interest rates and commodity prices. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates and commodity prices. We do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We have entered into, and may continue to enter into, financial instruments to manage and reduce the impact of changes in interest rates. The counterparties are, and are expected to continue to be, major financial institutions.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of long-term debt used to purchase properties or other real estate assets and to fund capital expenditures.

As of March 31, 2018, we had outstanding debt of approximately $705.3 million, excluding mortgage premium and unamortized debt issuance costs, bearing interest rates ranging from 2.91% to 5.48% per annum. The weighted average interest rate was 3.69%, which includes the effect of interest rate swaps. As of March 31, 2018, the weighted average years to maturity for our mortgages and credit facility payable was approximately 4.2 years.

As of March 31, 2018, our fixed-rate debt consisted of secured mortgage financings with a carrying value of $171.8 million and a fair value of $169.1 million. C hanges in interest rates do not affect interest expense incurred on our fixed-rate debt until their maturity or earlier repayment, but interest rates do affect the fair value of our fixed rate debt obligations.  I f market interest rates were to increase by 1% (100 basis points), the fair market value of our fixed-rate debt would decrease by $8.5 million at March 31, 2018. I f market interest rates were to decrease by 1% (100 basis points), the fair market value of our fixed-rate debt would increase by $9.2 million at March 31, 2018.

As of March 31, 2018, we had $150.0 million of debt or 21.26% of our total debt, excluding mortgage premium and unamortized debt issuance costs, bearing interest at variable rates with a weighted average interest rate equal to 3.56% per annum. We had variable rate debt subject to swap agreements of $383.5 million, or 54.38% of our total debt, excluding mortgage premium and unamortized debt issuance costs, at March 31, 2018.

If interest rates on all debt which bears interest at variable rates as of March 31, 2018 increased by 1% (100 basis points), the increase in interest expense on all debt would decrease earnings and cash flows by approximately $1.5 million annually. If interest rates on all debt which bears interest at variable rates as of March 31, 2018 decreased by 1% (100 basis points), the decrease in interest expense would increase earnings and cash flows by the same amount.

With regard to variable rate financing, our Business Manager assesses our interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities. Our Business Manager maintains risk management control systems to monitor interest rate cash flow risk attributable to both of our outstanding or forecasted debt obligations as well as our potential offsetting hedge positions.

31


We use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates on loans secured by our assets. Derivative instruments may include interest rate swap contracts, interest rate cap or floor contracts, futures or forward contracts, options or repurchase agreements. Our actual hedging decisions are determined in light of the facts and circums tances existing at the time of the hedge. We have used derivative financial instruments, specifically interest rate swap contracts, to hedge against interest rate fluctuations on variable rate debt, which exposes us to both credit risk and market risk. Cre dit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. If the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty will owe us, which creates credit risk for us because the counterparty may not perfo rm. Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from a change in interest rates. We seek to manage the market risk associated with interest-rate contracts by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the ty pes and degree of market risk that may be undertaken. There is no assurance we will be successful.

Derivatives

For information related to our derivatives, reference is made to Note 7 – “Debt and Derivative Instruments” which is included in our March 31, 2018 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management has evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officers, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) or Rule 15d-15(f)) during the three months ended March 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

We are not a party to, and none of our properties are subject to, any material pending legal proceedings.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

The following risk factors supplement the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

We have incurred net losses on a U.S. GAAP basis for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2018.

We have incurred net losses on a U.S. GAAP basis for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of $2.2 million. Our losses can be attributed, in part, to non-cash expenses, such as depreciation and amortization and acquisition related expenses. We may incur net losses in the future, which could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, operations, cash flow, a nd our ability to service our indebtedness and pay distributions to our stockholders. We are subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties associated with any business. We cannot assure our stockholders that, in the future, we will be profitable or that we will realize growth in the value of our assets.

If we are unable to borrow at favorable rates, we may not be able to acquire new properties.

If we are unable to borrow money at favorable rates, we may be unable to acquire additional real estate assets or refinance existing loans at maturity. Further, we have obtained and may continue to enter into loan agreements or other credit arrangements that require us to pay interest on amounts we borrow at variable or “adjustable” rates. Increases in interest rates will increase our interest costs. If interest rates are higher when we refinance our loans, our expenses will increase and we may not be able to pass on this added cost in the form of increased rents, thereby reducing our cash flow and the amount available for distribution to our stockholders.  Further, during periods of rising interest rates, we may be forced to sell one or more of our properties in order to repay existing loans, which may not permit us to maximize the return on the particular properties being sold. As of March 31, 2018, we had $150.0 million of debt

32


or 21.26% of our total debt, excluding mortgage premium and unamortized debt issuance costs, bore interest at variable rates with a weighted average interest rate of 3.56%. We had vari able rate debt subject to swap agreements fixing the rate of $383.5 million or 54.38% of our total debt, excluding mortgage premium and unamortized debt issuance costs, at March 31, 2018.

The financial covenants under our credit agreement may restrict our ability to make distributions and our operating and acquisition activities. If we breach the financial covenants we could be held in default under the credit agreement, which could accelerate our repayment date and materially adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition.

We entered into a credit agreement, as amended, with KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. for a $110 million Credit Facility.  The credit agreement provides us with the ability from time to time to increase the size of the Credit Facility, subject to certain conditions. Our performance of the obligations under the credit agreement, including the payment of any outstanding indebtedness, is secured by a minimum pool of five unencumbered properties with an unencumbered pool value of $110 million or above and by a guaranty by certain of our subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2018, we have borrowed $95.8 million of the $110 million available. Our availability under the Credit Facility was $14.2 million as of March 31, 2018.

The credit agreement requires compliance with certain financial covenants, including, among other conditions, a minimum tangible net worth requirement, restrictions on indebtedness, a distribution limitation and other material covenants. These covenants could inhibit our ability to make distributions to our stockholders and to pursue certain business initiatives or effect certain transactions that might otherwise be beneficial to us. For example, without lender consent, we may not declare and pay distributions or honor any redemption requests if any default under the agreement then exists or if distributions, excluding any distributions reinvested through our DRP, for the then-current quarter and the three immediately preceding quarters would exceed 95% of our FFO, excluding acquisition expenses, or “adjusted FFO,” for that period. For the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2018, distributions did not exceed 95% of our adjusted FFO.

The credit agreement also provides for several customary events of default, including, among other things, the failure to comply with our covenants and the failure to pay when amounts outstanding under the credit agreement become due. Declaration of a default by the lenders under the credit agreement could restrict our ability to borrow additional monies and could cause all amounts to become immediately due and payable, which would materially adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition.

Investing in subordinated debt involves greater risks of loss than senior loans secured by the same properties.

We entered into mezzanine loan agreements pursuant to which we made a mezzanine financing commitment of approximately $5.4 million in the aggregate. We may continue to invest in mezzanine debt and other subordinated debt. These types of investments carry a higher degree of risk of loss than senior secured debt investments because in the event of default and foreclosure, holders of senior liens will be paid in full before subordinated investors and, depending on the value of the underlying collateral, there may not be sufficient assets to pay all or any part of amounts owed to subordinated investors. Moreover, mezzanine debt and other subordinated debt investments may have higher loan-to-value ratios than conventional senior lien financing, resulting in less equity in the collateral and increasing the risk of loss of principal. If a borrower defaults or declares bankruptcy, we may be subject to agreements restricting or eliminating our rights as a creditor, including rights to call a default, foreclose on collateral, accelerate maturity or control decisions made in bankruptcy proceedings. In addition, senior lenders may limit the amount or timing of interest and principal payments while the senior secured debt is outstanding.

Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Recent Sales of Unregistered Equity Securities

During the period covered by this quarterly report, we did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act.

Share Repurchase Program

We adopted a share repurchase program effective October 18, 2012 which was subsequently amended effective January 1, 2018 to change the processing of repurchase requests from a monthly to a quarterly basis to align with the move to quarterly distributions.  Under the SRP, we are authorized, in our discretion, to purchase shares from stockholders who purchased their shares from us or received their shares through a non-cash transfer and who have held their shares for at least one year, if requested.  Under the SRP, we may make “ordinary repurchases,” which are defined as all repurchases other than “exceptional repurchases,” which are defined as repurchases upon the death or qualifying disability of a stockholder, at prices ranging from 92.5% of the “share price,” as defined in the SRP, for stockholders who have owned their shares continuously for at least one year, but less than two years, to 100% of the

33


“share pr ice” for stockholders who have owned their shares continuously for at least four years. In the case of “exceptional repurchases,” we may repurchase shares at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the “share price.”

As used in the SRP, “share price” means: (1) prior to our initial valuation date, the offering price of our shares in the Offering (unless the shares were purchased at a discount from that price, and then that purchase price), as adjusted by the Reverse Stock Split, reduced by any distributions of net sale proceeds that we designate as constituting a return of capital; and (2) on and after our initial valuation date, the lesser of: (A) the share price determined in (1); or (B) the most recently disclosed estimated value per share.

Subject to funds being available, we limit the number of shares repurchased during any calendar year to 5% of the number of shares outstanding on December 31st of the previous calendar year, as adjusted by the Reverse Stock Split. Funding for the SRP is limited to the proceeds we receive from the DRP during the same period.  In the case of exceptional repurchases, the one year holding period does not apply.

The SRP will immediately terminate if our shares are listed on any national securities exchange. In addition, our board of directors, in its sole discretion, may amend, suspend (in whole or in part), or terminate our SRP. In the event that we amend, suspend or terminate the SRP, however, we will send stockholders notice of the change at least thirty days prior to the change, and we will disclose the change in a report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on either Form 8-K, Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as appropriate. Further, our board reserves the right in its sole discretion, at any time, and from time to time to reject any requests for repurchases. The table below outlines the shares we repurchased pursuant to our SRP during the three months ended March 31, 2018.
