MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
“We've had a productive start to the year, closing $375 million of investments and building a strong deal pipeline, which positions us well in relation to our investment guidance,” said Jason Fox, Chief Executive Officer of W. P. Carey. “We also made excellent progress toward completing our office exit strategy and addressing recent tenant-specific issues, further strengthening our well-diversified portfolio. We believe that we have a distinct advantage both in terms of deploying the substantial capital we’ve amassed into new investments and the strength of our rent escalations, putting us on a path to generate future growth based off the new baseline AFFO set in 2024.”
QUARTERLY FINANCIAL RESULTS
Note: Effective January 1, 2024, the Company no longer separately analyzes its business between real estate operations and investment management operations, and instead views the business as one reportable segment. As a result of this change, the Company has conformed prior period segment information to reflect how it currently views its business.
Revenues
•Revenues, including reimbursable costs, for the 2024 first quarter totaled $389.8 million, down 8.9% from $427.8 million for the 2023 first quarter.
◦Lease revenues decreased primarily as a result of (i) executing the Company’s strategic plan to exit the office assets within its portfolio, including the NLOP Spin-Off in November 2023 and dispositions under the Office Sale Program during 2023 and the 2024 first quarter, and (ii) the reclassification of lease revenues during the 2023 first quarter for a portfolio of 78 U-Haul self-storage net lease properties (the U-Haul portfolio) in conjunction with the exercise of a purchase option on the portfolio. These two items more than offset the impact of higher lease revenues from net investment activity and rent escalations.
◦Income from finance leases and loans receivable increased primarily as a result of the reclassification of lease revenues for the U-Haul portfolio during the 2023 first quarter (as described above), which was sold during the 2024 first quarter. This reclassification had no impact on total revenues.
◦Operating property revenues decreased primarily as a result of the sale of eight hotel operating properties during 2023 (out of 12 hotel properties that converted from net lease to operating upon lease expiration during the 2023 first quarter).
◦Other lease-related income decreased primarily as a result of higher lease termination income during the 2023 first quarter in connection with the sales of two properties.
Net Income Attributable to W. P. Carey
•Net income attributable to W. P. Carey for the 2024 first quarter was $159.2 million, down 45.9% from $294.4 million for the 2023 first quarter, due primarily to lower gain on sale of real estate.
Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)
•AFFO for the 2024 first quarter was $1.14 per diluted share, down 13.0% from $1.31 per diluted share for the 2023 first quarter, primarily reflecting the impact of the NLOP Spin-Off and the Office Sale Program, as well as lower other lease-related income, which more than offset the impact of net investment activity and rent escalations.
Note: Further information concerning AFFO, which is a non-GAAP supplemental performance metric, is presented in the accompanying tables and related notes.
W. P. Carey Inc. 3/31/2024 Earnings Release 8-K – 2
Dividend
•On March 14, 2024, the Company reported that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.865 per share, equivalent to an annualized dividend rate of $3.46 per share. The dividend was paid on April 15, 2024 to shareholders of record as of March 28, 2024.
AFFO GUIDANCE
2024 AFFO Guidance
•For the 2024 full year, the Company affirms its expectation that it will report AFFO of between $4.65 and $4.75 per diluted share, based on the following key assumptions, which are substantially unchanged:
(i) investment volume of between $1.5 billion and $2.0 billion;
(ii) disposition volume of between $1.2 billion and $1.4 billion, including:
(a) substantial completion of the Company’s strategic plan to exit office, including anticipated asset sales under the Office Sale Program totaling between $550 million and $600 million during the first half of 2024;
(b) completion of the U-Haul purchase option during the 2024 first quarter, which generated gross proceeds of $464 million; and
(c) other dispositions totaling between $150 million and $350 million; and
(iii) total general and administrative expenses of between $100 million and $103 million.
Note: The Company does not provide guidance on net income. The Company only provides guidance on AFFO and does not provide a reconciliation of this forward-looking non-GAAP guidance to net income due to the inherent difficulty in quantifying certain items necessary to provide such reconciliation as a result of their unknown effect, timing and potential significance. Examples of such items include impairments of assets, gains and losses from sales of assets, and depreciation and amortization from new acquisitions.
REAL ESTATE
Investments
•Year to date, the Company completed investments totaling $374.5 million, including $280.3 million during the 2024 first quarter and $94.2 million subsequent to quarter end, comprising a 1.2 million square foot distribution facility located in Commercial Point, Ohio.
•The Company currently has six capital investments and commitments totaling $66.4 million scheduled to be completed during 2024.
W. P. Carey Inc. 3/31/2024 Earnings Release 8-K – 3
Dispositions
•During the 2024 first quarter, the Company disposed of 153 properties for gross proceeds totaling $889.2 million, comprising:
◦The disposition of 72 properties under an asset sale program (the Office Sale Program) for gross proceeds totaling $410.5 million, primarily from the sale of a portfolio of 70 office properties net leased to the State of Andalusia (the State of Andalusia portfolio) for $359.3 million, and
◦The disposition of 81 non-Office Sale Program properties for gross proceeds totaling $478.6 million, primarily from the sale of the U-Haul portfolio for $464.1 million through the completion of a purchase option on the portfolio.
•The Company is nearing completion of the strategic plan it announced on September 21, 2023 to exit the office assets within its portfolio, primarily through:
◦The spin-off of 59 office properties into Net Lease Office Properties, a separate publicly-traded REIT (the NLOP Spin-Off), completed on November 1, 2023; and
◦The disposition of 87 properties retained by W. P. Carey under the Office Sale Program.
•To date, the Company has sold 80 properties under the Office Sale Program for gross proceeds totaling approximately $630.8 million. Seven office properties generating $17.2 million of ABR and representing 1.3% of total ABR remain to be sold under the program, which are targeted for sale during the first half of 2024.
Contractual Same-Store Rent Growth
•As of March 31, 2024, contractual same store rent growth was 3.1% year over year, on a constant currency basis.
Lease Restructuring
•On February 15, 2024, the Company entered into a lease restructuring for a 35-property retail portfolio in Germany leased to Hellweg, including a rent abatement for the 2024 first quarter, a €4.0 million rent reduction commencing on April 1, 2024 (resulting in annual rent of €23.3 million) and a seven-year extension of the lease term to February 2044.
Occupancy
•As of March 31, 2024, the Company’s net lease portfolio occupancy rate was 99.1%, up 100 basis points from 98.1% as of December 31, 2023, due primarily to the lease-up of an approximately 1.6 million square foot warehouse property located in University Park, Illinois.
Composition
•As of March 31, 2024, the Company’s net lease portfolio consisted of 1,282 properties, comprising 168 million square feet leased to 335 tenants, with a weighted-average lease term of 12.2 years and an occupancy rate of 99.1%. In addition, the Company owned 89 self-storage operating properties, five hotel operating properties and two student housing operating properties, totaling approximately 7.3 million square feet.

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure
Funds from Operations (FFO) and Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure, when used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental non-GAAP measure. FFO is not equivalent to, nor a substitute for, net income or loss as determined under GAAP.
We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as restated in December 2018. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from the sale of certain real estate, impairment charges on real estate or other assets incidental to the company’s main business, gains or losses on changes in control of interests in real estate and depreciation and amortization from real estate assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.
We also modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to adjust GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as amortization of real estate-related intangibles, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rent and related reserves, other non-cash rent adjustments, non-cash allowance for credit losses on loans receivable and finance leases, stock-based compensation, non-cash environmental accretion expense, amortization of discounts and premiums on debt and amortization of deferred financing costs. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude non-core income and expenses, such as gains or losses from extinguishment of debt, merger and acquisition expenses, and spin-off expenses. We also exclude realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign currency exchange rate movements (other than those realized on the settlement of foreign currency derivatives), which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as AFFO. We exclude these items from GAAP net income to arrive at AFFO as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process and excluding these items provides investors a view of our portfolio performance over time and makes it more comparable to other REITs that are currently not engaged in acquisitions, mergers and restructuring, which are not part of our normal business operations. AFFO also reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. We use AFFO as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals, evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies and determine executive compensation.
We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider as we believe it will help them to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use our FFO and AFFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net income computed under GAAP, or as alternatives to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP, or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.

| Disclosures Regarding Non-GAAP and Other Metrics |
Non-GAAP Financial Disclosures
FFO and AFFO
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure, when used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental non-GAAP measure. FFO is not equivalent to, nor a substitute for, net income or loss as determined under GAAP.
We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as restated in December 2018. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from the sale of certain real estate, impairment charges on real estate or other assets incidental to the company’s main business, gains or losses on changes in control of interests in real estate and depreciation and amortization from real estate assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.
We also modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to adjust GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as amortization of real estate-related intangibles, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rent and related reserves, other non-cash rent adjustments, non-cash allowance for credit losses on loans receivable and finance leases, stock-based compensation, non-cash environmental accretion expense, amortization of discounts and premiums on debt and amortization of deferred financing costs. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude non-core income and expenses, such as gains or losses from extinguishment of debt, merger and acquisition expenses, and spin-off expenses. We also exclude realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign currency exchange rate movements (other than those realized on the settlement of foreign currency derivatives), which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as AFFO. We exclude these items from GAAP net income to arrive at AFFO as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process and excluding these items provides investors a view of our portfolio performance over time and makes it more comparable to other REITs that are currently not engaged in acquisitions, mergers and restructuring, which are not part of our normal business operations. AFFO also reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. We use AFFO as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals, evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies and determine executive compensation.
We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider as we believe it will help them to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency exchange rate losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use our FFO and AFFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net income computed under GAAP, or as alternatives to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP, or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.
Same-Store Pro Rata Rental Income
Same-store pro rata rental income is a non-GAAP financial measure that is intended to reflect the performance of our net leased properties. We define this as contractual rents from our leased properties. Same-store rental income excludes reimbursable tenant costs, amortization of intangibles and straight-line rent adjustments that are included in GAAP lease revenues. We present same-store rental income on a pro rata basis to account for our share of income related to unconsolidated joint ventures and noncontrolling interests. We believe that same-store pro rata rental income is a helpful measure that both investors and management can use to evaluate the financial performance of our leased properties. Same-store pro rata rental income should not be considered as an alternative to lease revenues as an indication of our financial performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity or our ability to fund all needs. The method by which we calculate and present same-store rental income and/or same-store pro rata rental income may not be directly comparable to the way other REITs present such metrics.
Pro Rata Cash NOI
Cash net operating income (“cash NOI”) is a non-GAAP financial measure that is intended to reflect the performance of our net leased and operating properties. We define cash NOI as cash rents from our leased and operating properties less non-reimbursable property expenses. Cash NOI excludes amortization of intangibles and straight-line rent adjustments that are included in GAAP lease revenues. We present cash NOI on a pro rata basis (“pro rata cash NOI”) to account for our share of income related to unconsolidated joint ventures and noncontrolling interests. We believe that pro rata cash NOI is a helpful measure that both investors and management can use to evaluate the financial performance of our leased and operating properties and it allows for comparison of our operating performance between periods and to other REITs. Pro rata cash NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of our financial performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity or our ability to fund all needs. The method by which we calculate and present cash NOI and/or pro rata cash NOI may not be directly comparable to the way other REITs present such metrics.

Appendix – First Quarter 2024
Normalized Pro Rata Cash NOI
Normalized pro rata cash NOI is pro rata cash NOI as defined above adjusted primarily to exclude our pro rata share of cash NOI from properties disposed of during the most recent quarter and to include a full quarter of pro rata cash NOI related to properties acquired or capital investments and commitments completed during the period, as applicable. If there is a rent abatement, we annualize the first monthly contractual base rent following the free rent period. We believe this measure provides a helpful representation of our net operating income from our in-place leased and operating properties.
Adjusted EBITDA
We believe that EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts for assessing the performance of our business segments because (i) it removes the impact of our capital structure from our operating results and (ii) it is helpful when comparing our operating performance to that of companies in our industry without regard to such items, which can vary substantially from company to company. Adjusted EBITDA as disclosed represents EBITDA, modified to include other adjustments to GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as impairments, non-cash rent adjustments and unrealized gains and losses from our hedging activity. Additionally, we exclude gains and losses on sale of real estate, which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plans and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We exclude these items from adjusted EBITDA as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process. Adjusted EBITDA reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash and non-core items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts, although it does not represent net income that is computed in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or as an indicator of our financial performance. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as calculated by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Cash Interest Expense
Cash interest expense is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to interest expense calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus capitalized interest and other non-cash amortization expense, less amortization of deferred financing costs and debt premiums/discounts, adjusted for pro rata ownership. See the definition of cash interest expense coverage ratio below for a reconciliation of cash interest expense to its most directly compared GAAP measure, interest expense.
Cash Interest Expense Coverage Ratio
Cash interest expense coverage ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure representing the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to cash interest expense on a trailing 12 months basis. We believe this ratio is useful to investors as a supplemental measure of our ability to satisfy fixed interest expense obligations. Cash interest expense for the trailing 12 months as of March 31, 2024 is equal to $275.2 million, comprised of interest expense calculated in accordance with GAAP ($293.3 million), plus capitalized interest ($0.8 million) and other non-cash amortization expense ($0.1 million), less amortization of deferred financing costs and debt premiums/discounts ($20.2 million), adjusted for pro rata ownership ($1.4 million).
Other Metrics
Pro Rata Metrics
This supplemental package contains certain metrics prepared on a pro rata basis. We refer to these metrics as pro rata metrics. We have certain investments in which our economic ownership is less than 100%. On a full consolidation basis, we report 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of those investments that are deemed to be under our control or for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary, even if our ownership is less than 100%. Also, for all other jointly owned investments, which we do not control, we report our net investment and our net income or loss from that investment. On a pro rata basis, we generally present our proportionate share, based on our economic ownership of these jointly owned investments, of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of those investments. Multiplying each of our jointly owned investments’ financial statement line items by our percentage ownership and adding or subtracting those amounts from our totals, as applicable, may not accurately depict the legal and economic implications of holding an ownership interest of less than 100% in our jointly owned investments.
ABR
ABR represents contractual minimum annualized base rent for our net-leased properties and reflects exchange rates as of March 31, 2024. If there is a rent abatement, we annualize the first monthly contractual base rent following the free rent period. ABR is not applicable to operating properties and is presented on a pro rata basis.

25 Certain of the matters discussed in this communication constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended, the “Securities Act”) and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act”), both as amended by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding the intent, belief or expectations of the Company and can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate” “opportunities,” “possibility,” “strategy,” “maintain” or the negative version of these words and other comparable terms. These forward- looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that are not historical facts. These statements are based on the current expectations of our management, and it is important to note that our actual results could be materially different from those projected in such forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable risks or uncertainties, like the risks related to fluctuating interest rates, the impact of inflation on our tenants and us, the effects of pandemics and global outbreaks of contagious diseases and domestic or geopolitical crises, such as terrorism, military conflict, war or the perception that hostilities may be imminent, political instability or civil unrest, or other conflict, and those additional risk factors discussed in reports that we have filed with the SEC, could also have material adverse effects on our future results, performance or achievements. Discussions of some of these other important factors and assumptions are contained in W. P. Carey’s filings with the SEC and are available at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov, including Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in W. P. Carey’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this communication, unless noted otherwise. Except as required under the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC, W. P. Carey does not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to the forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this communication or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. All data presented herein is as of March 31, 2024 unless otherwise noted. Amounts may not sum to totals due to rounding. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
26 EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA We believe that EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts for assessing the performance of our business segments because (i) it removes the impact of our capital structure from our operating results and (ii) it is helpful when comparing our operating performance to that of companies in our industry without regard to such items, which can vary substantially from company to company. Adjusted EBITDA as disclosed represents EBITDA, modified to include other adjustments to GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as impairments, non-cash rent adjustments and unrealized gains and losses from our hedging activity. Additionally, we exclude gains and losses on sale of real estate, which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plans and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We exclude these items from adjusted EBITDA as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process. Adjusted EBITDA reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash and noncore items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts, although it does not represent net income that is computed in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or as an indicator of our financial performance. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as calculated by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other Metrics Pro Rata Metrics This presentation contains certain metrics prepared on a pro rata basis. We refer to these metrics as pro rata metrics. We have certain investments in which our economic ownership is less than 100%. On a full consolidation basis, we report 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of those investments that are deemed to be under our control or for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary, even if our ownership is less than 100%. Also, for all other jointly owned investments, which we do not control, we report our net investment and our net income or loss from that investment. On a pro rata basis, we generally present our proportionate share, based on our economic ownership of these jointly owned investments, of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of those investments. Multiplying each of our jointly owned investments’ financial statement line items by our percentage ownership and adding or subtracting those amounts from our totals, as applicable, may not accurately depict the legal and economic implications of holding an ownership interest of less than 100% in our jointly owned investments. ABR ABR represents contractual minimum annualized base rent for our net-leased properties and reflects exchange rates as of March 31, 2024. If there is a rent abatement, we annualize the first monthly contractual base rent following the free rent period. ABR is not applicable to operating properties and is presented on a pro rata basis. Disclosures The following non-GAAP financial measures are used in this presentation
