The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018 , may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018 . Amounts as of December 31, 2017 , included in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, included herein, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as well as Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in NNN's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 .
Principles of Consolidation – NNN’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of each of the respective majority owned and controlled affiliates, including transactions whereby NNN has been determined to be the primary beneficiary in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance included in Consolidation. All significant intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Real Estate Portfolio – NNN records the acquisition of real estate at cost, including acquisition and closing costs. The cost of properties developed by NNN includes direct and indirect costs of construction, property taxes, interest and other miscellaneous costs incurred during the development period until the project is substantially complete and available for occupancy. NNN recorded $ 1,904,000 and $ 1,113,000 in capitalized interest during the development period for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, of which $ 1,076,000 and $ 560,000 was recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively.
Purchase Accounting for Acquisition of Real Estate Subject to a Lease – In accordance with the FASB guidance on business combinations, the fair value of the real estate acquired with in-place leases is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and tenant improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases and the value of in-place leases, as applicable, based on their respective fair values.
The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired leased property is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the "as-if-vacant" value is then allocated to land, building and tenant improvements based on the determination of their fair values.
In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market in-place lease values are recorded as other assets or liabilities based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases, and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease and the applicable option terms if it is probable that the tenant will

7


exercise options. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to rental income over the initial term unless the Company believes that it is likely that the tenant will renew the lease for an option term whereby the Company amortizes the value attributable to the renewal over the renewal period.
The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases, is measured by the excess of (i) the purchase price paid for a property after adjusting existing in-place leases to market rental rates over (ii) the estimated fair value of the property as-if-vacant, determined as set forth above. The value of in-place leases exclusive of the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts relating to that lease would be written off in that period. The value of tenant relationships is reviewed on individual transactions to determine if future value was derived from the acquisition.
Intangible assets and liabilities consisted of the following as of (dollars in thousands):

The amounts amortized as a net increase to rental income for capitalized above-market and below-market leases were $ 2,115,000 and $ 1,341,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, of which $ 1,417,000 and $ 682,000 were recorded for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The value of in-place leases amortized to expense were $ 5,516,000 and $ 6,608,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, of which $ 2,370,000 and $ 3,281,000 were recorded for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively.
Debt Costs – Line of Credit Payable – Debt costs incurred in connection with NNN’s $ 900,000,000 line of credit have been deferred and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the loan commitment using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. NNN has recorded debt costs associated with the line of credit as an asset, in Debt costs on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Debt Costs – Mortgages Payable – Debt costs incurred in connection with NNN’s mortgages payable have been deferred and are being amortized over the term of the respective loan commitment using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. These costs of $ 147,000 at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , are included in Mortgages payable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets net of accumulated amortization of $ 64,000 and $ 55,000 , respectively.
Debt Costs – Notes Payable – Debt costs incurred in connection with the issuance of NNN’s notes payable have been deferred and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the respective debt obligation using the effective interest method. These costs of $ 22,682,000 at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , are included in Notes payable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets net of accumulated amortization of $ 7,399,000 and $ 6,337,000 , respectively.
Revenue Recognition – In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of ASU 2014-09, is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Certain contracts are excluded from ASU 2014-09, including lease contracts within the scope of the FASB guidance included in Leases (Topic 842). NNN adopted ASU 2014-09 on January 1, 2018, and applied the cumulative catch-up transition method. Through the evaluation and implementation process, NNN determined the key revenue stream

8


impacted by ASU 2014-09 is Gain on disposition of real estate reported on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2014-09, NNN recognized revenue at the time of closing (i.e., transfer of asset). Following the adoption of ASU 2014-09, NNN evaluates any separate contracts or performance obligations to determine proper timing of revenue recognition, as well as, transaction price allocation. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 did not have a material impact on NNN's financial position and results of operations.
Earnings Per Share – Earnings per share have been computed pursuant to the FASB guidance included in Earnings Per Share . The guidance requires classification of the Company’s unvested restricted share units, which carry rights to receive nonforfeitable dividends, as participating securities requiring the two-class method of computing earnings per share. Under the two-class method, earnings per common share are computed by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common stockholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the weighted average shares outstanding during the period.
The following table is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share using the two-class method (dollars in thousands):

Fair Value Measurement – NNN’s estimates of fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities are based on the framework established in the fair value accounting guidance. The framework specifies a hierarchy of valuation inputs which was established to increase consistency, clarity and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures. The guidance describes a fair value hierarchy based upon three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, two of which are considered observable and one that is considered unobservable. The following describes the three levels:
•
Level 1 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•
Level 2 – Valuation is based upon inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
•
Level 3 – Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

New Accounting Pronouncements – In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)," effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The FASB issued final guidance that requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses in the income statement in a manner similar to today’s accounting. The guidance also eliminates today’s real estate-specific provisions and changes the guidance on sale-leaseback transactions, initial direct costs and lease executory costs for all entities. For lessors, the standard modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. NNN is currently evaluating to determine the potential impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its financial position or results of operations.
Use of Estimates – Management of NNN has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Significant estimates include provisions for impairment and allowances for certain assets, accruals, useful lives of assets and purchase price allocation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassification – Certain items in the prior year’s consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2018 presentation.

The leases generally provide for limited increases in rent as a result of fixed increases, increases in the consumer price index, and/or increases in the tenant’s sales volume. Generally, the tenant is also required to pay all property taxes and assessments, substantially maintain the Property and carry property and liability insurance coverage. Certain Properties are subject to leases under which NNN retains responsibility for specific costs and expenses of the Property. Generally, the leases provide the tenant with one or more multi-year renewal options, subject to generally the same terms and conditions of the base term of the lease, including rent increases.

Real Estate – Impairments
Management periodically assesses its real estate for possible impairment whenever certain events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset, including accrued rental income, may not be recoverable through operations. Events or circumstances that may occur include significant changes in real estate market conditions and the ability of NNN to re-lease or sell properties that are vacant or become vacant in a reasonable period of time. Impairments are measured as the amount by which the current book value of the asset exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. As a result of the Company's review of long-lived assets, including identifiable intangible assets, NNN recognized real estate impairments, net of recoveries of $ 6,083,000 and $ 1,167,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, of which $ 3,835,000 and ($ 39,000 ) was recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively.

The valuation of impaired assets is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis, income capitalization, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sales negotiations and bona fide purchase offers received from third parties, which are Level 3 inputs. NNN may consider a single valuation technique or multiple valuation techniques, as appropriate, when estimating the fair value of its real estate.

Note 3 – Line of Credit Payable :
NNN's $ 900,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) had a weighted average outstanding balance of $ 187,331,000 and a weighted average interest rate of 2.7 % during the six months ended June 30, 2018 . The Credit Facility matures January 2022, unless the Company exercises its option to extend maturity to January 2023. The Credit Facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 87.5 basis points; however, such interest rate may change pursuant to a tiered interest rate structure based on NNN's debt rating. The Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature to increase the facility size up to $ 1,600,000,000 , subject to lender approval. As of June 30, 2018 , $ 166,700,000 was outstanding and $ 733,300,000 was available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility, excluding undrawn letters of credit totaling $ 58,000 .

Note 4 – Stockholders' Equity :
In February 2018, NNN filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") which permits the issuance by NNN of an indeterminate amount of debt and equity securities.
Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan – In February 2018, NNN filed a shelf registration statement with the Commission for its Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan ("DRIP") which permits the issuance by NNN of up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock.

Note 5 – Derivatives :
In accordance with the guidance on derivatives and hedging, NNN records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or a firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.
NNN’s objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks. To accomplish this objective, NNN primarily uses treasury locks, forward starting swaps and interest rate swaps as part of its cash flow hedging strategy. Treasury locks and forward starting swaps are used to hedge forecasted debt issuances. Treasury locks designated as cash flow hedges lock in the yield/price of a treasury security. Forward swaps also lock the associated swap spread. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with floating rate debt and involve the receipt or payment of variable rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying principal amount.
For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings, and the ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings.
NNN discontinues hedge accounting prospectively when it is determined that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of the hedged item, the derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, the derivative is re-designated as a hedging instrument or management determines that designation of the derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate.
When hedge accounting is discontinued, NNN recognizes any changes in its fair value in earnings and continues to carry the derivative on the balance sheet or may choose to settle the derivative at that time with a cash payment or receipt.
The following table outlines NNN's terminated derivatives which were hedging the risk of changes in forecasted interest payments on forecasted issuance of long-term debt (dollars in thousands):

(1) The amount reported in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified to interest expense as
interest payments are made on the related notes payable.
As of June 30, 2018 , $ 13,599,000 remained in other comprehensive income related to the effective portion of NNN’s previously terminated interest rate hedges. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , NNN reclassified out of other comprehensive income $ 1,056,000 and $ 903,000 , respectively, as an increase in interest expense. Over the next 12 months, NNN estimates that an additional $ 2,192,000 will be reclassified as an increase in interest expense. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on NNN’s long-term debt.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018 , NNN entered into two forward starting swaps with a total notional amount of $ 250,000,000 to hedge the risk of changes in the interest-related cash outflows associated with the potential issuance of long-term debt. The outstanding forward swaps were designated as cash flow hedges, and at June 30, 2018 , have a fair value of $ 1,095,000 included in Other assets and Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the forward starting swaps was based on a Level 2 valuation. No hedge ineffectiveness was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2018 . These derivative financial instruments were still outstanding as of June 30, 2018 .

14


NNN does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes or currently have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges.

Note 6 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments :
NNN believes the carrying value of its Credit Facility approximates fair value based upon its nature, terms and variable interest rate. NNN believes that the carrying value of its mortgages payable at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , approximate fair value based upon current market prices of comparable instruments (Level 3). At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 , the fair value of NNN’s notes payable net of unamortized discount and excluding debt costs was $ 2,416,221,000 and $ 2,507,106,000 , respectively, based upon quoted market prices, which is a Level 1 valuation since NNN's notes payable are publicly traded.

Note 7 – Subsequent Events :
NNN reviewed its subsequent events and transactions that have occurred after June 30, 2018 , the date of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. There were no reportable subsequent events or transactions.

Overview
NNN, a Maryland corporation, is a fully integrated real estate investment trust (“REIT”) formed in 1984. NNN's assets are primarily real estate assets. NNN acquires, owns, invests in and develops properties that are leased primarily to retail tenants under long-term net leases and are primarily held for investment ("Properties" or "Property Portfolio", or individually a "Property").
As of June 30, 2018 , NNN owned 2,846 Properties, with an aggregate gross leasable area of approximately 29,389,000 square feet, located in 48 states, with a weighted average remaining lease term of 11.5 years. Approximately 98 percent of the Properties were leased as of June 30, 2018 .
NNN’s management team focuses on certain key indicators to evaluate the financial condition and operating performance of NNN. The key indicators for NNN include items such as: the composition of the Property Portfolio (such as tenant, geographic and line of trade diversification), the occupancy rate of the Property Portfolio, certain financial performance ratios and profitability measures, industry trends and industry performance compared to that of NNN.
NNN evaluates the creditworthiness of its current and prospective tenants. This evaluation may include reviewing available financial statements, store level financial performance, press releases, public credit ratings from major credit rating agencies, industry news publications and financial market data (debt and equity pricing). NNN may also evaluate the business and operations of its tenants, including periodically meeting with senior management of certain tenants.
NNN continues to maintain its diversification by tenant, geography and tenant's line of trade. NNN’s largest lines of trade concentrations are the convenience store and restaurant (including full and limited service) sectors. These sectors represent a large part of the freestanding retail property marketplace and NNN’s management believes these sectors present attractive investment opportunities. The Property Portfolio is geographically concentrated in the south and southeast United States, which are regions of historically above-average population growth. Given these concentrations, any financial hardship within these sectors or geographic regions could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition and operating performance of NNN.

Analysis of Revenue
General. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018 , rental income increased, as compared to the same periods in 2017 , primarily due to the increase in rental income from Property acquisitions (See “Results of Operations – Property Analysis – Property Acquisitions”). NNN anticipates increases in rental income will continue to come from additional Property acquisitions and increases in rents pursuant to existing lease terms.

Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 versus Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 2017
Rental Income. Rental Income increased in amount but remained flat as a percent of the total revenues for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same periods in 2017. The increase for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018, is primarily due to a partial year of Rental Income received as a result of the acquisition of 111 properties with aggregate gross leasable area of approximately 736,000 during 2018 and a full year of Rental Income received as a result of the acquisition of 276 properties with a gross leasable area of approximately 2,243,000 square feet in 2017.

Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 versus Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 2017
Real Estate. Real estate expenses increased in amount and as a percentage of total operating expenses for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same periods in 2017. Real estate expenses remained flat as a percentage of revenues for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same periods in 2017. The increase is primarily due to an increase in vacant expenses and increases in reimbursable and non-reimbursable expenses from certain properties acquired during the six months ended June 30, 2018, and from certain properties acquired during the year ended December 31, 2017.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased in amount and as a percentage of total operating expenses for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same periods in 2017. Depreciation and amortization expenses remained relatively flat as a percentage of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017, but decreased for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017. The increase is primarily due to the acquisition of 111 properties with an aggregate gross leasable area of approximately

20


736,000 square feet in 2018 and 276 properties with an aggregate gross leasable area of approximately 2,243,000 square feet during 2017.
Impairment losses – real estate and other charges, net of recoveries. NNN reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever certain events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Events or circumstances that may occur include changes in real estate market conditions, the ability of NNN to re-lease properties that are currently vacant or become vacant, and the ability to sell properties at a price that exceeds NNN's carrying value. Management evaluates whether an impairment in value has occurred by comparing the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges), and the residual value of the real estate, with the carrying cost of the individual asset. If an impairment is indicated, a loss will be recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. NNN recognized real estate impairments, net of recoveries of $6,083,000 and $1,167,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively of which $3,835,000 and ($39,000) was recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 , respectively.
Retirement Severance Costs . For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, retirement severance costs relate primarily to Craig Macnab's retirement as CEO on April 28, 2017.

Liquidity
General .  NNN’s demand for funds has been, and will continue to be, primarily for (i) payment of operating expenses and cash dividends; (ii) Property acquisitions and development; (iii) capital expenditures; (iv) payment of principal and interest on its outstanding indebtedness; and (v) other investments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents. NNN's cash and cash equivalents includes the aggregate of Cash and cash equivalents and Restricted cash and cash held in escrow from the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The table below summarizes NNN’s cash flows (dollars in thousands):

Cash provided by operating activities represents cash received primarily from Rental Income and interest income less cash used for general and administrative expenses. NNN’s cash flow from operating activities has been sufficient to pay the distributions for each period presented. The change in cash provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 , and 2017 , is primarily the result of changes in revenues and expenses as discussed in “Results of Operations.” Cash generated from operations is expected to fluctuate in the future.
Changes in cash for investing activities are primarily attributable to the acquisitions and dispositions of Properties. NNN typically uses proceeds from its Credit Facility to fund the acquisition of its Properties.
NNN’s financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 , included the following significant transactions:
•
$5,471,000 in net proceeds from the issuance of 143,997 shares of common stock in connection with the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan ("DRIP"),
•
$125,052,000 in net proceeds from the issuance of 3,037,464 shares of common stock in connection with the at-the-market ("ATM") equity program,
•
$8,194,000 in dividends paid to holders of the depositary shares of NNN’s 5.700% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series E Preferred Stock"),
•
$8,970,000 in dividends paid to holders of the depositary shares of NNN's 5.200% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series F Preferred Stock"), and
•
$145,583,000 in dividends paid to common stockholders.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments . NNN has committed to fund construction commitments on 17 Properties. The improvements on such Properties are estimated to be completed within 12 months. These construction commitments, at June 30, 2018 , are outlined in the table below (dollars in thousands):
Total commitment (1)
$
134,726

Less amount funded
109,413

Remaining commitment
$
25,313

(1) Includes land, construction costs, tenant improvements, lease costs and capitalized interest.
As of June 30, 2018 , NNN did not have any other material contractual cash obligations, such as purchase obligations, financing lease obligations or other long-term liabilities other than those reflected in the tables above and previously disclosed under Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in NNN's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 . In addition to items reflected in the tables, NNN has issued preferred stock with cumulative preferential cash distributions, as described below under “Dividends.”
Management anticipates satisfying these obligations with a combination of NNN’s cash provided from operations, current capital resources on hand, its credit facility, debt or equity financings and asset dispositions.
Generally, the Properties are leased under long-term net leases, which require the tenant to pay all property taxes and assessments, to maintain the interior and exterior of the property, and to carry property and liability insurance coverage. Therefore, management anticipates that capital demands to meet obligations with respect to these Properties will be modest for the foreseeable future and can be met with funds from operations and working capital. Certain Properties are subject to leases under which NNN retains responsibility for specific costs and expenses associated with the Property. Management anticipates that the costs associated with these Properties, NNN's vacant Properties or those Properties that become vacant will also be met with funds from operations and working capital. NNN may be required to borrow under its credit facility or use other sources of capital in the event of significant capital expenditures.
The lost revenues and increased property expenses resulting from vacant Properties or uncollectibility of lease revenues could have a material adverse effect on the liquidity and results of operations if NNN is unable to re-lease the Properties at comparable rental rates and in a timely manner. As of June 30, 2018 , NNN owned 44 vacant, un-leased Properties which accounted for less than two percent of total Properties held in the Property Portfolio. Additionally, as of June 30, 2018 , less than one percent of the Property Portfolio is leased to two tenants that each filed a petition for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. As a result, these tenants have the right to reject or affirm their leases with NNN.
NNN generally monitors the financial performance of its significant tenants on an ongoing basis.
Dividends. NNN has made an election to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, as amended, and related regulations and intends to continue to operate so as to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. NNN generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that it distributes to its stockholders, provided that it distributes 100 percent of its REIT taxable income and meets certain other requirements for qualifying as a REIT. If NNN fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for the four years following the year during which qualification is lost. Such an event could materially adversely affect NNN’s income and ability to pay dividends. NNN believes it has been structured as, and its past and present operations qualify NNN as, a REIT.
One of NNN’s primary objectives, consistent with its policy of retaining sufficient cash for reserves and working capital purposes and maintaining its status as a REIT, is to distribute a substantial portion of its funds available from operations to its stockholders in the form of dividends.

Capital Resources
Generally, cash needs for Property acquisitions, debt payments, capital expenditures, development and other investments have been funded by equity and debt offerings, bank borrowings, the sale of Properties and, to a lesser extent, by internally generated funds. Cash needs for operating and interest expenses and dividends have generally been funded by internally generated funds. If available, future sources of capital include proceeds from the public or private offering of NNN’s debt or equity securities, secured or unsecured borrowings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from the sale of Properties, as well as undistributed funds from operations.

Indebtedness. NNN expects to use indebtedness primarily for property acquisitions and development of single-tenant retail properties, either directly or through investment interests. Additionally indebtedness may be used to refinance existing indebtedness.
Line of Credit Payable. NNN's $900,000,000 unsecured revolving Credit Facility had a weighted average outstanding balance of $187,331,000 and a weighted average interest rate of 2.7% during the six months ended June 30, 2018 . The Credit Facility matures January 2022, unless the Company exercises its option to extend maturity to January 2023. The Credit Facility

23


currently bears interest at LIBOR plus 87.5 basis points; however, such interest rate may change pursuant to a tiered interest rate structure based on NNN's debt rating. The Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature to increase the facility size up to $1,600,000,000 , subject to lender approval. As of June 30, 2018 , $166,700,000 was outstanding and $733,300,000 was available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility, excluding undrawn letters of credit totaling $58,000 .

Debt and Equity Securities
NNN has used, and expects to use in the future, issuances of debt and equity securities primarily to pay down its outstanding indebtedness and to finance acquisitions.
Securities Offerings. In February 2018, NNN filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) which was automatically effective and permits the issuance by NNN of an indeterminate amount of debt and equity securities.
Information related to NNN's publicly held debt and equity securities is included in NNN's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan. In February 2018, NNN filed a shelf registration statement which was automatically effective with the Commission for its DRIP, which permits the issuance by NNN of up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock. NNN’s DRIP provides an economical and convenient way for current stockholders and other interested new investors to invest in NNN’s common stock.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

NNN is exposed to interest rate risk primarily as a result of its variable rate Credit Facility and its fixed rate debt which is used to finance NNN’s development and acquisition activities, as well as for general corporate purposes. NNN’s interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to reduce overall borrowing costs. To achieve its objectives, NNN borrows at both fixed and variable rates on its long-term debt. As of June 30, 2018 , NNN had two forward starting swaps with a total notional amount of $250,000,000 to hedge the risk of changes in the interest-related cash outflows associated with the potential issuance of long-term debt.
The information in the table below summarizes NNN’s market risks associated with its debt obligations outstanding as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 . The table presents principal payments and related interest rates by year for debt obligations outstanding as of June 30, 2018 . The table incorporates only those debt obligations that existed as of June 30, 2018 , and it does not consider those debt obligations or positions which could arise after this date and therefore has limited predictive value. As a result, NNN’s ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period, NNN’s hedging strategies at that time and interest rates. If interest rates on NNN’s variable rate debt increased by one percent, NNN’s interest expense would have increased by less than two percent for the six months ended June 30, 2018 .
