RYE, NY (October 28, 2025) - Acadia Realty Trust (NYSE: AKR) (“Acadia” or the “Company”) today reported operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. All per share amounts are on a fully-diluted basis, where applicable. Acadia owns and operates a high-quality real estate portfolio of street and open-air retail properties in the nation's most dynamic retail corridors (“REIT Portfolio”), along with an investment management platform that targets opportunistic and value-add investments through its institutional co-investment vehicles (“Investment Management”).
Kenneth F. Bernstein, President and CEO of Acadia, commented:
“We are pleased with the continued and accelerating momentum across our differentiated portfolio, particularly the 13% same-property NOI growth from our street retail assets. This performance underscores the strength of leasing demand and the ongoing rebound in street retail rents across our key corridors, which is showing no signs of slowing down. With our street retail portfolio poised to continue contributing double-digit NOI growth, complimented by a highly differentiated Investment Management Platform, and dry powder to fund our growing acquisition pipeline, we believe we are well positioned for growth heading into 2026 and beyond.”

•
As of September 30, 2025, sequentially increased occupancy percentage by 140 basis points to 93.6% compared to 92.2% as of June 30, 2025, driven by the $6.7 million of pro-rata ABR that commenced during the third quarter and maintained leased occupancy at 94.5%.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, conforming GAAP and cash leasing spreads on new and renewal leases were 29% and 12%, respectively. New leasing spreads were primarily driven by leases executed across street corridors, including New York, NY (SoHo and Williamsburg), and Georgetown, Washington, DC. Notable renewals on Henderson Avenue, Dallas, TX and West Village, New York, NY generated conforming GAAP and cash leasing renewal spreads of 67% and 51% respectively.

REIT Portfolio and Investment Management Platform Acquisition Pipeline

Based on the current pipeline, we expect our 2025 acquisition volume to equal or exceed 2024 levels.

Acadia Realty Trust and Subsidiaries
Notes to Financial Highlights:
(1)
For additional information and analysis concerning the Company’s balance sheet and results of operations, reference is made to the Company’s quarterly supplemental disclosures for the relevant periods furnished on the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, which is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and on the Company’s website at www.acadiarealty.com.
(2)
Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares of the Company were exercised or converted into common shares. The effect of the conversion of units of limited partnership interest (“OP Units”) in Acadia Realty Limited Partnership, the operating partnership of the Company (the “Operating Partnership”), is not reflected in the above table; OP Units are exchangeable into common shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such OP units is allocated on the same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these OP Units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share.
(3)
The Company considers funds from operations (“FFO”) as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and net property operating income (“NOI”) to be appropriate supplemental disclosures of operating performance for an equity REIT due to their widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. In addition, the Company believes that given the atypical nature of certain unusual items (as further described below), “FFO Before Special Items” is also an appropriate supplemental disclosure of operating performance. FFO, FFO Before Special Items and NOI are presented to assist investors in analyzing the performance of the Company. The Company believes they are helpful as they exclude various items included in net income (loss) that are not indicative of operating performance, such as (i) gains (losses) from sales of real estate properties; (ii) depreciation and amortization and (iii) impairment of depreciable real estate assets related to the Company’s main business and land held for the development of property. In addition, NOI excludes interest expense and FFO Before Special Items excludes certain unusual items (as further described below). The Company’s method of calculating FFO, FFO Before Special Items and NOI may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. Neither FFO nor FFO Before Special Items represent cash generated from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), or are indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. Such measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) for the purpose of evaluating the Company’s performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
a.
Consistent with the NAREIT definition, the Company defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding:
i.
gains (losses) from sales of real estate properties;
ii.
depreciation and amortization;
iii.
impairment of real estate assets related to the Company’s main business and land held for the development of property for its operating portfolio;
iv.
gains and losses from change in control; and
v.
after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
b.
Also consistent with NAREIT’s definition of FFO, the Company has elected to include: the impact of the unrealized holding gains (losses) incidental to its main business, including those related to its RCP investments such as Albertsons in FFO.
c.
FFO Before Special Items begins with the NAREIT definition of FFO and adjusts FFO (or as an adjustment to the numerator within its earnings per share calculations) to take into account FFO without regard to certain unusual items including:
14
i.
charges, income and gains that management believes are not comparable and indicative of the results of the Company’s operating real estate portfolio;
ii.
the impact of the unrealized holding gains (losses) incidental to its main business, including those related to its investment in Albertsons; and
iii.
any realized income or gains from the Company’s investment in Albertsons.
(4)
The Company defines Special Items to include (i) unrealized holding losses or gains (net of noncontrolling interest share) on investments and (ii) other costs that do not occur in the ordinary course of our underwriting and investing business.
(5)
The pro-rata share of NOI is based upon the Operating Partnership’s stated ownership percentages in each venture or Investment Management’s operating agreement and does not include the Operating Partnership's share of NOI from unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures within Investment Management.
