(1) ORGANIZATION AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

Overview

Copper Property CTL Pass Through Trust, a New York common law trust (the “Trust,” “we,” “our” or “us”) was formed on December 21, 2020, in connection with the reorganization of Old Copper Company, Inc. (f/k/a J. C. Penney Company, Inc.) (“Old Copper”), effective as of January 30, 2021 (the “Effective Date”) pursuant to the terms of the Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Old Copper and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) (the “Plan of Reorganization”).

On the Effective Date, through separate wholly-owned property holding companies (the "PropCos"), the Trust acquired 160 retail properties (the “Retail Properties”) and six distribution centers (the “Warehouses” and, together with the Retail Properties, the “Properties”) all of which were leased under two Master Leases (as discussed in Note 3) to one or more subsidiaries of Copper Retail JV LLC (“OpCo Purchaser”) (collectively with its subsidiaries, “Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC”), an entity formed by and under the joint control of Simon Property Group, L.P. and Brookfield Asset Management Inc. Specifically, the PropCos include (i) CTL Propco I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, CTL Propco I L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and CTL Propco PR I LLC and CTL Propco PR II LLC, Puerto Rico limited liability companies, which collectively own the fee simple or ground leasehold title (as applicable) to the Retail Properties and (ii) CTL Propco II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and CTL Propco II L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, which collectively owned the fee simple title to the Warehouses. During 2021, the Trust sold all six Warehouses and in 2022, CTL Propco II LLC and CTL Propco II L.P. were dissolved.

The Trust’s operations consist solely of (i) owning the Properties and interests as lessee of land under non-cancellable ground leases, (ii) leasing the Properties under the terms of the Retail Master Lease to Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC as the sole tenant and (iii) subject to market conditions and the conditions set forth in the Trust Agreement (as defined below), selling the Properties to third-party purchasers through the PropCos.

As of June 30, 2024, the real estate portfolio consists of 126 Retail Properties, of which 21 are encumbered by ground leases, in the United States (the "U.S.") across 35 states and Puerto Rico, and comprise 16.8 million square feet of leasable space.

Trust Agreement

The Amended and Restated Trust Agreement (as amended, the “Trust Agreement”) is dated as of the Effective Date. The Trust Agreement created a series of equity trust certificates designated as “Copper Property CTL Pass Through Certificates” (the “Trust Certificates”), 75,000,000 of which were issued on the Effective Date. Each Trust Certificate represents a fractional undivided beneficial interest in the Trust and represents the interests of the holders of the Trust Certificates (“Certificateholders”) in the Trust. GLAS Trust Company, LLC, as the Trust's independent third-party trustee (the "Trustee") pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement, performs trust administration duties, including treasury management and certificate administration, and earns trustee fees. The Trust pays the Trustee an annual service fee of $100, which is amortized monthly. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Trust incurred trustee fees of $25 and $50, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Trust incurred trustee fees of $25 and $50, respectively.

Management Agreement

The Trust has retained Hilco JCP LLC, an affiliate of Hilco Real Estate LLC, as its independent third-party manager to perform asset management duties with respect to the Properties (together with any of its affiliates, replacement or successor, the “Manager”) pursuant to an agreement with an initial term of 24 months, with automatic six month renewals until the termination of the Trust. The Trust pays the Manager a base management fee (the “Base Fee”) and a fee for each property sold (the “Asset Management Fee”). The Base Fee is an amount equal to the greater of 5.75% of the lease payments of the Properties per month and $333 per month. The Asset Management Fees consist of a success fee for each Retail Property sold which varies based on the sales proceeds and date sold.

The Trust incurred Base Fees of $1,458 and $1,469 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $2,935 and $2,945 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which are included in “Operating expenses” on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, of which $484 and $490 as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Trust incurred Asset Management Fees of $67 and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $155 and $15 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which are included in “Gain on sales of investment properties, net” on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Trust, as well as all wholly owned subsidiaries of the Trust. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (the “Reporting Periods”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements have been omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. The information presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements is unaudited and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Amounts as of December 31, 2023 included in the consolidated financial statements have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but do not include all annual disclosures required by GAAP. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Trust's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "10-K"), as certain disclosures in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that would duplicate those included in the 10-K are not included in these consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Reclassifications

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, amounts have been reclassified from "changes in accounts receivable" to "straight-line rental income, net" in the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows to conform with the 2024 presentation.

(3) LEASES

Leases as Lessor

The Retail Properties are leased pursuant to a single retail master lease (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Retail Master Lease”) and the Warehouses were leased pursuant to a single distribution center master lease (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “DC Master Lease”; together with the Retail Master Lease, the “Master Leases” and individually, each a “Master Lease”). On the Effective Date, Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC assigned all of its right, title and interest as lessor under the Master Leases to the applicable PropCo. Each of the Master Leases has an initial term of 20 years that commenced on December 7, 2020 and is classified as an operating lease. The Trust receives monthly base rent pursuant to the Master Leases, which was 50% abated through December 31, 2021 for each of the Retail Properties. At the beginning of the third lease year, base rent under the Retail Master Lease increases based on changes in the consumer price index (subject to a maximum 2% increase per year). Pursuant to the Retail Master Lease, lease payments increased in December 2023 based on changes in the consumer price index ("CPI"). Upon the sale of the Warehouses in December 2021, the Trust assigned all of its right, title and interest as lessor in the DC Master Lease to the purchaser.

The Master Lease requires direct payment of all operating expenses, real estate taxes, ground lease payments (where applicable), capital expenditures and common area maintenance costs by Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC and allows for lessor reimbursement if amounts are not directly paid. Expenses paid directly by Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC are not included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, except for ground lease payments made by Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC, since recording cash payments made by Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC is necessary to relieve amounts due to the ground lessor included in the ground lease liabilities. Ground lease payments made by Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC of $2,062 and $2,016 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were paid directly to the ground lessor by Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC and were included in “Lease income” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

As of June 30, 2024, lease payments of $8,385 received in advance under the terms of the Master Leases are included in "Other liabilities" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and will be recognized as lease income in July 2024. As of December 31, 2023, lease payments of $8,583 received in advance under the terms of the Master Leases are included in "Other liabilities" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and were recognized as lease income in January 2024. The Trust records all changes in uncollectible lease income as an adjustment to “Lease income” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. During the Reporting Periods, there was no uncollectible lease income.

In certain municipalities, the Trust is required to remit sales and use taxes to governmental authorities based upon the rental income received from Properties. These taxes are required to be reimbursed by Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC to the Trust in accordance with the terms of the Master Lease, and are presented net of reimbursement from Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC on the consolidated statements of operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Trust remitted sales and use taxes of $301 and $373, respectively, which were fully reimbursed by Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC as of the end of each corresponding Reporting Period.

From time to time, the Trust may have leasing activity with replacement tenants other than Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC but has had none to date.

As of June 30, 2024, the Trust held an interest as lessee of land under 21 non-cancellable ground leases. The Trust leases land under operating ground leases at certain of its Properties, which expire in various years from 2038 to 2096, including any available option periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised. All option terms were considered to be reasonably certain of being exercised through the initial term of the Master Lease as of June 30, 2024.

The components of ground lease rent expense, which are included within “Operating expenses” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, were as follows:

(4) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Master Leases

Landlord Option Properties: On the Effective Date, the Retail Master Lease provides the Trust an option on 23 of the Retail Properties allowing current or future landlords to terminate the Retail Master Lease as to that property upon 24 months’ prior written notice. This option is limited (for the Trust, but not for future landlords) to eight Retail Properties in any lease year. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, no Retail Properties with landlord termination options were sold. As of June 30, 2024, the Trust had sold 16 Retail Properties with landlord termination options, and there were seven remaining Retail Properties with landlord termination options.

(in thousands, except certificate and per certificate amounts)

Tenant Option Properties: On the Effective Date, the Retail Master Lease provided Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC an option to terminate the Retail Master Lease upon 24 months’ prior written notice as to all or a portion of any one or more of six specified properties. This option is limited to no more than five Properties in any lease year. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, no Retail Properties with tenant termination options were sold. As of June 30, 2024, the Trust had sold five Retail Properties with tenant termination options, and there was one remaining Retail Property with a tenant termination option.

Substitution Options and Go Dark Rights: The Retail Master Lease provides Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC an option to terminate the Retail Master Lease with respect to selected sub-performing properties upon replacement of such sub-performing properties with a qualified replacement property in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Retail Master Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC shall only be entitled to exercise a substitution option (i) between the third and 15th anniversary of the commencement date of the Retail Master Lease and (ii) if the aggregate allocated base rent amounts for all Go Dark/Substitution Properties (as defined in the Retail Master Lease) during the applicable period (as described in the Retail Master Lease) is less than or equal to 15% of the aggregate first year’s base rent. The Retail Master Lease also provides Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC with the limited right to “go dark” (i.e., cease operations) at one or more Retail Properties in certain limited circumstances as set forth in the Retail Master Lease; provided that such right does not relieve Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC of its obligation to make any rent payments that are due and owing. As of June 30, 2024, Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC has not ceased operations at any of the Retail Properties.

Tenant Purchase Rights: On the Effective Date, the Master Leases contained preferential offer rights in favor of Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC with respect to 70 of the Retail Properties and each of the Warehouses (the “Tenant Purchase Rights”), which enable Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC, in connection with a potential sale of such Properties, to acquire such Properties for a price determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Master Leases. These Tenant Purchase Rights require the Trust to reoffer a property to the tenant in the event it is not sold within a specified period of time at a specified minimum price related to the preferential purchase price. As of June 30, 2024, 18 of these Retail Properties, of which three were purchased by an affiliate of the tenant, and all of the Warehouses, of which none were purchased by the tenant, have been sold.

Lockout Periods: The Trust agreed not to deliver notice to Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC formally commencing the sales process at those Properties subject to the Tenant Purchase Rights prior to the dates specified in the applicable Master Lease for such Properties. All lockout periods with respect to the Tenant Purchase Rights for the 70 Retail Properties have expired.

Environmental Matters

Federal law (and the laws of some states in which we own or may acquire properties) imposes liability on a landowner for the presence on the premises of hazardous substances or wastes (as defined by present and future federal and state laws and regulations). This liability is without regard to fault or knowledge of the presence of such substances and may be imposed jointly and severally upon all succeeding landowners. If such hazardous substance is discovered on a property owned by us, we could incur liability for the removal of the substances and the cleanup of the property.

There can be no assurance that we would have effective remedies against prior owners of the property. In addition, we may be liable to current or future tenants and may find it difficult or impossible to sell the property either prior to or following such a cleanup. There are no environmental matters that are expected to have a material effect on the Trust’s consolidated financial statements.

Risk of Uninsured Property Losses

The Trust maintains property damage, fire loss, environmental, and liability insurance in addition to the insurance required to be maintained by the Tenant pursuant to the Master Leases. However, there are certain types of losses (generally of a catastrophic nature) which may be either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Such excluded

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

(in thousands, except certificate and per certificate amounts)

risks may include war, earthquakes, tornados, floods and certain other environmental hazards. Should such events occur, (i) we may suffer a loss of capital invested, (ii) tenant may suffer losses and may be unable to pay rent for the spaces, and (iii) we may suffer a loss of profits which might be anticipated from one or more properties.

Significant Risks and Uncertainties

Although disruptions stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic have subsided, inflation, rising interest rates, reduced consumer spending, labor shortages, supply chain disruptions and global capital markets volatility pose increasing risks to the Company and the U.S. economy. The ongoing and potential future impacts of global conflicts, such as between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East, among others are also contributing to economic and geopolitical uncertainty. While we did not incur any disruptions to our lease income and occupancy during the six months ended June 30, 2024, as a result of these adverse political and economic conditions, credit markets or other events, we continue to closely monitor the impact of these factors as they may have a negative impact on our or Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC’s business.

Concentration of Credit Risk

As of June 30, 2024, all of the Properties were leased to Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC, and all of the Trust’s lease income was derived from the Master Leases (see Note 3). The Properties' tenants constitute a significant asset concentration, as all tenants are subsidiaries of Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC, and Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC provides financial guarantees with respect to the Master Leases. Until the Trust materially diversifies the composition of tenants for its properties, an event that has a material adverse effect on Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC’s business, financial condition or results of operations could have a material adverse effect on the Trust’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

As of June 30, 2024, the Trust's properties are located across 35 U.S. states and Puerto Rico. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Trust's lease income was concentrated in two states as follows: California 18.9% and Texas 13.1%. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Trust's lease income was concentrated in two states as follows: California 18.8% and Texas 13.5%.

Litigation

From time to time, the Trust may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. There are no current matters that are expected to have a material effect on the Trust’s consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no uncertain tax positions and the balance of unrecognized tax benefits was $0.

(5) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to June 30, 2024, we paid monthly distributions to Certificateholders of $20,952 or $0.28 per certificate in July 2024. On August 7, 2024, we announced a distribution of $7,611 or $0.10 per certificate to be paid on August 12, 2024 to Certificateholders.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in this report.

Principal External Factors that Affect our Results of Operations

Inflation Risk and Economic Conditions

Although disruptions stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic have subsided, inflation, rising interest rates, reduced consumer spending, labor shortages, supply chain disruptions and global capital markets volatility pose continued risk to the Trust and the U.S. economy. The ongoing and potential future impacts of global conflicts, such as between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East, among others, are also contributing to economic and geopolitical uncertainty. Downturns in the global economy could cause a decline in the demand for our properties and our Tenants’ products. Our operations could also be impacted by inflation and increased interest rates. Inflation did not have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

While we did not incur any disruptions to our lease income and occupancy during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 as a result of these adverse political and economic conditions, credit markets or other events, any of these events could materially adversely impact the Trust or Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC's business. The Trust continues to closely monitor economic, financial and social conditions, including the effects of inflation.

Climate Change and ESG Regulations

Our Properties are subject to comprehensive and frequently evolving federal, state and local environmental and occupational health and safety laws. We have made, and will continue to make, capital and other expenditures to comply with environmental requirements. While we do not currently anticipate any material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or competitive position as a result of our efforts to comply with such requirements, new or more stringent laws or regulations regarding environmental and worker health and safety laws could affect our operations and increase our operational and compliance expenditures. It is also possible that liabilities from newly-discovered non-compliance or contamination could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Executive Summary

Copper Property CTL Pass Through Trust exists for the sole purpose of collecting rent, holding, administering, distributing and monetizing the Properties for the benefit of Certificateholders. As of June 30, 2024, we owned 126 retail operating properties, 21 of which are encumbered by ground leases, across 35 U.S. states and Puerto Rico representing 16.8 million square feet of leasable space. The number of retail operating properties decreased to 126 as of June 30, 2024 from 130 as of December 31, 2023 as a result of the dispositions of four Retail Properties during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Results of Operations

Comparison of three and six months ended June 30, 2024 to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, net income attributable to Certificateholders was $17,883 or $0.24 per Certificate, as compared to $16,831 or $0.22 per Certificate for the corresponding period in 2023.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, net income attributable to Certificateholders was $35,651 or $0.48 per Certificate, as compared to $33,987 or $0.45 per Certificate for the corresponding period in 2023.

The following describes the changes on the Trust’s consolidated statements of operations that affected net income attributable to Certificateholders during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2023:

Lease income - The net decrease in lease income of $178 and $119 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in 2023, is due to the disposition of six Retail Properties between June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2024, partially offset by the CPI adjustment of base rent as of December 7, 2023.

Operating expenses - The net decrease in operating expenses of $185 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in 2023, is due to the timing of estimated and actual tax payments. The net decrease in operating expenses of $295 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in 2023, is due to the Trust receiving a franchise tax refund during the six months ended June 30, 2024 as a result of an overpayment in 2023.

Depreciation and amortization - The decrease in depreciation and amortization of $134 and $207 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, as compared to the corresponding period in 2023, is due to the disposition of six Retail Properties between June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2024.

General and administrative expenses - The increase in general and administrative expenses of $273 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in 2023, is primarily due to increases in professional fees. The decrease in general and administrative expenses of $43 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in 2023, is primarily due to a decrease in insurance expenses, partially offset by an increase in legal fees.

Gain on sales of investment properties, net - During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Trust disposed of four properties for aggregate net sales proceeds of $29,209, which resulted in an aggregate gain of $2,526. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, gain on sales of investment properties, net includes a gain of $78 in proceeds released from escrow due to a disposition that occurred in December 2022 and $154 of selling expenses from prior period dispositions. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Trust disposed of one Retail Property for aggregate net sales proceeds of $5,869, which resulted in a loss of $496. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, gain on sales of investment properties, net includes a net gain of $1,324 from a prior year disposition.

Other income - Other income consists of interest income earned on investments in money market instruments and non-recurring income generated from the Retail Properties, including consent fees or other fees paid to the Trust. The increase in other income of $82 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in 2023, is due to an increase in interest income earned by the Trust. The Trust did not receive any consent fees or other income during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in other income of $384 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the corresponding period in 2023, is due to a decrease of $520 in consent fees and other income received by the Trust, partially offset by an increase of $136 in interest income earned by the Trust.

Net Operating Income ("NOI")

We define NOI as all revenues other than (i) straight-line rental income (non-cash), (ii) amortization of above and below market lease intangibles, (iii) interest income and (iv) non-cash ground lease reimbursement income, less all operating expenses other than non-cash ground rent expense, which is comprised of amortization of right-of-use lease assets and amortization of lease liabilities, depreciation and amortization, and formation expenses. We use NOI internally to evaluate our financial and operating performance. We believe that NOI, which is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure, also provides an additional and useful operating perspective to investors not immediately apparent from “Net income” in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). We do not, nor do we suggest that investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Comparison of our presentation of NOI to similarly titled measures for other entities may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in definition and application by such entities. For reference and as an aid in understanding our computation of NOI, a reconciliation of net income as computed in accordance with GAAP to NOI for the Reporting Periods is as follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
Net income	$	17,883	$	16,831	$	35,651	$	33,987
Adjustments to reconcile to NOI:
Depreciation and amortization of real estate	4,683		4,817		9,440		9,647

Gain on sales of investment properties, net	(1,102)		—		(2,450)		(828)
Straight-line rental income, net	572		588		1,151		1,179
Amortization of above and below market lease intangibles, net	582		569		1,143		1,120
Interest income	(365)		(283)		(685)		(549)

Non-cash ground rent expense, net	1,495		1,495		2,991		2,991
Non-cash ground lease reimbursement income	(1,027)		(1,004)		(2,062)		(2,016)
NOI	$	22,721	$	23,013	$	45,179	$	45,531

The decrease in NOI of $352 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, is due to (i) a net decrease in lease income of $1,171 resulting from the disposition of six Retail Properties and (ii) a decrease in consent fees and other fees of $520; partially offset by (iii) an increase in lease income of $1,001 due to the CPI adjustment of base rent in December 2023 and (iv) net decreases in general and administrative expenses and operating expenses of $43 and $295, respectively.

Funds from Operations

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a financial measure known as funds from operations ("FFO"). As defined by NAREIT, FFO means net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding (i) depreciation and amortization related to real estate, (ii) gains from sales of real estate assets, (iii) gains and losses from change in control and (iv) provisions for impairment of investment properties. We have adopted the NAREIT definition in our computation of FFO attributable to Certificateholders. Management believes that, subject to the following limitations, FFO attributable to Certificateholders provides a basis for comparing our performance and operations to REITs.

We define Operating FFO attributable to Certificateholders as FFO attributable to Certificateholders excluding the impact of discrete non-operating transactions and other events which we do not consider representative of the comparable operating results of our real estate operating portfolio, which is our core business platform. Specific examples of discrete non-operating transactions and other events include, but are not limited to, the impact on earnings, which are not otherwise adjusted in our calculation of FFO attributable to Certificateholders.

We believe that FFO and Operating FFO, which are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures, provide an additional and useful means to assess our operating performance compared to REITs. FFO and Operating FFO do not represent alternatives to (i) “Net income” or “Net income attributable to Certificateholders” as indicators of our financial performance, or (ii) “Cash flows from operating activities” which is prepared in accordance with GAAP as measures of our capacity to fund cash needs, including the payment of distributions. Comparison of our presentation of Operating FFO to similarly titled measures for REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in definition and application by such REITs.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income to FFO and Operating FFO:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
Net income	$	17,883	$	16,831	$	35,651	$	33,987
Depreciation and amortization of real estate	4,683		4,817		9,440		9,647

Gain on sales of investment properties, net	(1,102)		—		(2,450)		(828)
FFO	$	21,464	$	21,648	$	42,641	$	42,806

FFO per certificate outstanding – basic and diluted	$	0.29	$	0.29	$	0.57	$	0.57

FFO	$	21,464	$	21,648	$	42,641	$	42,806
Dead deal costs	137		—		140		19

Operating FFO	$	21,601	$	21,648	$	42,781	$	42,825

Operating FFO per certificate outstanding – basic and diluted	$	0.29	$	0.29	$	0.57	$	0.57

The decrease in FFO of $165 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, is primarily due to (i) a net decrease in lease related income of $1,120 resulting from the disposition of six Retail Properties and (ii) a decrease in consent fee income of $520; partially offset by (iii) an increase in lease income of $1,001 due to the CPI adjustment of base rent in December 2023, (iv) an increase in interest income of $136 and (v) net decreases in general and administrative expenses and operating expenses of $43 and $295, respectively.

The decrease in Operating FFO of $44 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to six months ended June 30, 2023 is primarily due to (i) a net decrease in lease related income of $1,120 resulting from the disposition of six Retail Properties and (ii) a decrease in consent fee income of $520; partially offset by (iii) an increase in lease income of $1,001 due to the CPI adjustment of base rent in December 2023, (iv) an increase in interest income of $136 and (v) net decreases in general and administrative expenses and operating expenses of $164 and $295, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We anticipate that cash flows from the below-listed sources will provide adequate capital for the next 12 months and beyond for all Certificateholder distributions.

Our primary expected sources and uses of liquidity are as follows:


	SOURCES		USES
▪	Rental revenues	▪	Operating and general and administrative expenses
▪	Cash and cash equivalents	▪	Sales expenses
▪	Net proceeds from the sale of real estate	▪	Distribution payments

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $47,032 and $38,026, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents. The Trust has adopted a policy to maintain its cash equivalents in a government money market fund administered by a major bulge bracket investment banking firm which invests its assets only in (i) cash and (ii) securities issued or guaranteed by the United States or certain U.S. government agencies and having a weighted average life and weighted average maturity of no more than 120 days and 60 days, respectively. Each of these government money market funds is managed to maintain a stable net asset value, thereby eliminating principal risk.

We had no indebtedness as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Debt Maturities

We have no scheduled maturities and principal amortization of our indebtedness, since we had no indebtedness as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Distributions

The Trust is required to distribute on a monthly basis, the net proceeds from lease payments under the Master Leases (until such time as all of the Properties have been sold) and all net sales proceeds from the disposition of Properties, in each case pro rata, to Certificateholders as of the record date immediately preceding the applicable distribution date. Such distributions shall be net of (i) tax payments to be made by the Trust, (ii) fees and expenses of the Trust, the Trustee, the Manager and any other professional advisors, and (iii) funds to be set aside for the Trustee’s and Manager’s reserve accounts.

We paid distributions to the Certificateholders of $65,518 or $0.87 per certificate during the six months ended June 30, 2024, and $68,189 or $0.91 per certificate during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Dispositions

Net sales proceeds from the disposition of Properties were included in the distributions to Certificateholders. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, included in the amount we paid to Certificateholders was $20,064 and $22,929, respectively, of aggregate net sales proceeds.

Capital Expenditures

We anticipate that obligations related to capital improvements will not be significant as these are generally the responsibility of the tenant under the Master Leases and should otherwise be met with cash flows from operations.

Summary of Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	45,315	$	46,013
Net cash provided by investing activities	29,209		7,196
Net cash used in financing activities	(65,518)		(68,189)
Change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	9,006		(14,980)
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, at beginning of period	38,026		48,922
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, at end of period	$	47,032	$	33,942

Cash Flows from Operating and Investing Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $45,315, as compared to $46,013 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease of $698 is primarily due to (i) a decrease in prepaid expenses, including insurance premiums and (ii) a decrease in lease income resulting from the disposition of six Retail Properties between June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2024; partially offset by an increase in NOI resulting from (iii) an increase in lease income due to the CPI adjustment to base rent and (iv) net decreases in general and administrative and operating expenses.

Cash flows provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $29,209, as compared to $7,196 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Investing activities solely consists of proceeds from sales of investment properties, and the increase in net cash provided by investing activities is due to disposition activity in each Reporting Period.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, total net cash provided by operating and investing activities was $74,524, however $65,518 was distributed to Certificateholders in 2024, of which $12,320 were distributions of cash flows from operating and investing activities received during December 2023.

Management believes that cash flows from operations and sales of investment properties and existing cash and cash equivalents will provide sufficient liquidity to sustain future operations; however, we cannot provide any such assurances.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $65,518, as compared to $68,189 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Financing activities for both Reporting Periods consisted of distributions paid to Certificateholders.

Contractual Obligations

As of June 30, 2024, we have 21 properties that are subject to long-term non-cancelable ground leases. These leases expire in various years from 2038 to 2096, including any available option periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised.

The following table summarizes the Trust’s obligations under non-cancelable operating leases as of June 30, 2024:


	Payments due by period
Period from July 1 to December 31, 2024	$	2,062
2025	4,116
2026	4,138
2027	4,197
2028	4,257
Thereafter	215,902
Less imputed interest	(196,893)
Lease liabilities as of June 30, 2024	$	37,779

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our 2023 Annual Report on 10-K, as amended, contains a description of our critical accounting policies, including those relating to the impairment of long-lived assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no significant changes to these policies.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

None.

Subsequent Events

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

We are not exposed to interest rate risk because we currently do not hold any long-term debt or derivatives. If we were to enter into long-term debt arrangements, our interest rate risk management objectives would be to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs.

As of June 30, 2024, we did not hold any fixed or variable rate debt, and did not hold any derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
ORGANIZATION AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION	ORGANIZATION AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION Overview Copper Property CTL Pass Through Trust, a New York common law trust (the “Trust,” “we,” “our” or “us”) was formed on December 21, 2020, in connection with the reorganization of Old Copper Company, Inc. (f/k/a J. C. Penney Company, Inc.) (“Old Copper”), effective as of January 30, 2021 (the “Effective Date”) pursuant to the terms of the Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Old Copper and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) (the “Plan of Reorganization”). On the Effective Date, through separate wholly-owned property holding companies (the "PropCos"), the Trust acquired 160 retail properties (the “Retail Properties”) and six distribution centers (the “Warehouses” and, together with the Retail Properties, the “Properties”) all of which were leased under two Master Leases (as discussed in Note 3) to one or more subsidiaries of Copper Retail JV LLC (“OpCo Purchaser”) (collectively with its subsidiaries, “Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC”), an entity formed by and under the joint control of Simon Property Group, L.P. and Brookfield Asset Management Inc. Specifically, the PropCos include (i) CTL Propco I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, CTL Propco I L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and CTL Propco PR I LLC and CTL Propco PR II LLC, Puerto Rico limited liability companies, which collectively own the fee simple or ground leasehold title (as applicable) to the Retail Properties and (ii) CTL Propco II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and CTL Propco II L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, which collectively owned the fee simple title to the Warehouses. During 2021, the Trust sold all six Warehouses and in 2022, CTL Propco II LLC and CTL Propco II L.P. were dissolved. The Trust’s operations consist solely of (i) owning the Properties and interests as lessee of land under non-cancellable ground leases, (ii) leasing the Properties under the terms of the Retail Master Lease to Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC as the sole tenant and (iii) subject to market conditions and the conditions set forth in the Trust Agreement (as defined below), selling the Properties to third-party purchasers through the PropCos. As of June 30, 2024, the real estate portfolio consists of 126 Retail Properties, of which 21 are encumbered by ground leases, in the United States (the "U.S.") across 35 states and Puerto Rico, and comprise 16.8 million square feet of leasable space. Trust Agreement The Amended and Restated Trust Agreement (as amended, the “Trust Agreement”) is dated as of the Effective Date. The Trust Agreement created a series of equity trust certificates designated as “Copper Property CTL Pass Through Certificates” (the “Trust Certificates”), 75,000,000 of which were issued on the Effective Date. Each Trust Certificate represents a fractional undivided beneficial interest in the Trust and represents the interests of the holders of the Trust Certificates (“Certificateholders”) in the Trust. GLAS Trust Company, LLC, as the Trust's independent third-party trustee (the "Trustee") pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement, performs trust administration duties, including treasury management and certificate administration, and earns trustee fees. The Trust pays the Trustee an annual service fee of $100, which is amortized monthly. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Trust incurred trustee fees of $25 and $50, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Trust incurred trustee fees of $25 and $50, respectively. Management Agreement The Trust has retained Hilco JCP LLC, an affiliate of Hilco Real Estate LLC, as its independent third-party manager to perform asset management duties with respect to the Properties (together with any of its affiliates, replacement or successor, the “Manager”) pursuant to an agreement with an initial term of 24 months, with automatic six month renewals until the termination of the Trust. The Trust pays the Manager a base management fee (the “Base Fee”) and a fee for each property sold (the “Asset Management Fee”). The Base Fee is an amount equal to the greater of 5.75% of the lease payments of the Properties per month and $333 per month. The Asset Management Fees consist of a success fee for each Retail Property sold which varies based on the sales proceeds and date sold. The Trust incurred Base Fees of $1,458 and $1,469 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $2,935 and $2,945 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which are included in “Operating expenses” on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, of which $484 and $490 as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, were included in “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Trust incurred Asset Management Fees of $67 and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $155 and $15 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which are included in “Gain on sales of investment properties, net” on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Trust, as well as all wholly owned subsidiaries of the Trust. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (the “Reporting Periods”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements have been omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. The information presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements is unaudited and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Amounts as of December 31, 2023 included in the consolidated financial statements have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but do not include all annual disclosures required by GAAP. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Trust's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "10-K"), as certain disclosures in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that would duplicate those included in the 10-K are not included in these consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2024. Reclassifications For the six months ended June 30, 2023, amounts have been reclassified from "changes in accounts receivable" to "straight-line rental income, net" in the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows to conform with the 2024 presentation.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	6 Months Ended
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	Jun. 30, 2024
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Master Leases Landlord Option Properties: On the Effective Date, the Retail Master Lease provides the Trust an option on 23 of the Retail Properties allowing current or future landlords to terminate the Retail Master Lease as to that property upon 24 months’ prior written notice. This option is limited (for the Trust, but not for future landlords) to eight Retail Properties in any lease year. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, no Retail Properties with landlord termination options were sold. As of June 30, 2024, the Trust had sold 16 Retail Properties with landlord termination options, and there were seven remaining Retail Properties with landlord termination options. Tenant Option Properties: On the Effective Date, the Retail Master Lease provided Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC an option to terminate the Retail Master Lease upon 24 months’ prior written notice as to all or a portion of any one or more of six specified properties. This option is limited to no more than five Properties in any lease year. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, no Retail Properties with tenant termination options were sold. As of June 30, 2024, the Trust had sold five Retail Properties with tenant termination options, and there was one remaining Retail Property with a tenant termination option. Substitution Options and Go Dark Rights: The Retail Master Lease provides Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC an option to terminate the Retail Master Lease with respect to selected sub-performing properties upon replacement of such sub-performing properties with a qualified replacement property in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Retail Master Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC shall only be entitled to exercise a substitution option (i) between the third and 15th anniversary of the commencement date of the Retail Master Lease and (ii) if the aggregate allocated base rent amounts for all Go Dark/Substitution Properties (as defined in the Retail Master Lease) during the applicable period (as described in the Retail Master Lease) is less than or equal to 15% of the aggregate first year’s base rent. The Retail Master Lease also provides Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC with the limited right to “go dark” (i.e., cease operations) at one or more Retail Properties in certain limited circumstances as set forth in the Retail Master Lease; provided that such right does not relieve Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC of its obligation to make any rent payments that are due and owing. As of June 30, 2024, Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC has not ceased operations at any of the Retail Properties. Tenant Purchase Rights: On the Effective Date, the Master Leases contained preferential offer rights in favor of Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC with respect to 70 of the Retail Properties and each of the Warehouses (the “Tenant Purchase Rights”), which enable Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC, in connection with a potential sale of such Properties, to acquire such Properties for a price determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Master Leases. These Tenant Purchase Rights require the Trust to reoffer a property to the tenant in the event it is not sold within a specified period of time at a specified minimum price related to the preferential purchase price. As of June 30, 2024, 18 of these Retail Properties, of which three were purchased by an affiliate of the tenant, and all of the Warehouses, of which none were purchased by the tenant, have been sold. Lockout Periods: The Trust agreed not to deliver notice to Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC formally commencing the sales process at those Properties subject to the Tenant Purchase Rights prior to the dates specified in the applicable Master Lease for such Properties. All lockout periods with respect to the Tenant Purchase Rights for the 70 Retail Properties have expired. Environmental Matters Federal law (and the laws of some states in which we own or may acquire properties) imposes liability on a landowner for the presence on the premises of hazardous substances or wastes (as defined by present and future federal and state laws and regulations). This liability is without regard to fault or knowledge of the presence of such substances and may be imposed jointly and severally upon all succeeding landowners. If such hazardous substance is discovered on a property owned by us, we could incur liability for the removal of the substances and the cleanup of the property. There can be no assurance that we would have effective remedies against prior owners of the property. In addition, we may be liable to current or future tenants and may find it difficult or impossible to sell the property either prior to or following such a cleanup. There are no environmental matters that are expected to have a material effect on the Trust’s consolidated financial statements. Risk of Uninsured Property Losses The Trust maintains property damage, fire loss, environmental, and liability insurance in addition to the insurance required to be maintained by the Tenant pursuant to the Master Leases. However, there are certain types of losses (generally of a catastrophic nature) which may be either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Such excluded risks may include war, earthquakes, tornados, floods and certain other environmental hazards. Should such events occur, (i) we may suffer a loss of capital invested, (ii) tenant may suffer losses and may be unable to pay rent for the spaces, and (iii) we may suffer a loss of profits which might be anticipated from one or more properties. Significant Risks and Uncertainties Although disruptions stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic have subsided, inflation, rising interest rates, reduced consumer spending, labor shortages, supply chain disruptions and global capital markets volatility pose increasing risks to the Company and the U.S. economy. The ongoing and potential future impacts of global conflicts, such as between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East, among others are also contributing to economic and geopolitical uncertainty. While we did not incur any disruptions to our lease income and occupancy during the six months ended June 30, 2024, as a result of these adverse political and economic conditions, credit markets or other events, we continue to closely monitor the impact of these factors as they may have a negative impact on our or Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC’s business. Concentration of Credit Risk As of June 30, 2024, all of the Properties were leased to Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC, and all of the Trust’s lease income was derived from the Master Leases (see Note 3). The Properties' tenants constitute a significant asset concentration, as all tenants are subsidiaries of Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC, and Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC provides financial guarantees with respect to the Master Leases. Until the Trust materially diversifies the composition of tenants for its properties, an event that has a material adverse effect on Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC’s business, financial condition or results of operations could have a material adverse effect on the Trust’s business, financial condition or results of operations. As of June 30, 2024, the Trust's properties are located across 35 U.S. states and Puerto Rico. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Trust's lease income was concentrated in two states as follows: California 18.9% and Texas 13.1%. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Trust's lease income was concentrated in two states as follows: California 18.8% and Texas 13.5%. Litigation From time to time, the Trust may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. There are no current matters that are expected to have a material effect on the Trust’s consolidated financial statements. Income Taxes As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no uncertain tax positions and the balance of unrecognized tax benefits was $0.

Overview and Trust Agreement	Overview Copper Property CTL Pass Through Trust, a New York common law trust (the “Trust,” “we,” “our” or “us”) was formed on December 21, 2020, in connection with the reorganization of Old Copper Company, Inc. (f/k/a J. C. Penney Company, Inc.) (“Old Copper”), effective as of January 30, 2021 (the “Effective Date”) pursuant to the terms of the Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Old Copper and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) (the “Plan of Reorganization”). On the Effective Date, through separate wholly-owned property holding companies (the "PropCos"), the Trust acquired 160 retail properties (the “Retail Properties”) and six distribution centers (the “Warehouses” and, together with the Retail Properties, the “Properties”) all of which were leased under two Master Leases (as discussed in Note 3) to one or more subsidiaries of Copper Retail JV LLC (“OpCo Purchaser”) (collectively with its subsidiaries, “Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC”), an entity formed by and under the joint control of Simon Property Group, L.P. and Brookfield Asset Management Inc. Specifically, the PropCos include (i) CTL Propco I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, CTL Propco I L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and CTL Propco PR I LLC and CTL Propco PR II LLC, Puerto Rico limited liability companies, which collectively own the fee simple or ground leasehold title (as applicable) to the Retail Properties and (ii) CTL Propco II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and CTL Propco II L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, which collectively owned the fee simple title to the Warehouses. During 2021, the Trust sold all six Warehouses and in 2022, CTL Propco II LLC and CTL Propco II L.P. were dissolved. The Trust’s operations consist solely of (i) owning the Properties and interests as lessee of land under non-cancellable ground leases, (ii) leasing the Properties under the terms of the Retail Master Lease to Penney Intermediate Holdings LLC as the sole tenant and (iii) subject to market conditions and the conditions set forth in the Trust Agreement (as defined below), selling the Properties to third-party purchasers through the PropCos. As of June 30, 2024, the real estate portfolio consists of 126 Retail Properties, of which 21 are encumbered by ground leases, in the United States (the "U.S.") across 35 states and Puerto Rico, and comprise 16.8 million square feet of leasable space. Trust Agreement The Amended and Restated Trust Agreement (as amended, the “Trust Agreement”) is dated as of the Effective Date. The Trust Agreement created a series of equity trust certificates designated as “Copper Property CTL Pass Through Certificates” (the “Trust Certificates”), 75,000,000 of which were issued on the Effective Date. Each Trust Certificate represents a fractional undivided beneficial interest in the Trust and represents the interests of the holders of the Trust Certificates (“Certificateholders”) in the Trust. GLAS Trust Company, LLC, as the Trust's independent third-party trustee (the "Trustee") pursuant to the terms of the Trust Agreement, performs trust administration duties, including treasury management and certificate administration, and earns trustee fees.
Management Agreement	Management Agreement The Trust has retained Hilco JCP LLC, an affiliate of Hilco Real Estate LLC, as its independent third-party manager to perform asset management duties with respect to the Properties (together with any of its affiliates, replacement or successor, the “Manager”) pursuant to an agreement with an initial term of 24 months, with automatic six month renewals until the termination of the Trust. The Trust pays the Manager a base management fee (the “Base Fee”) and a fee for each property sold (the “Asset Management Fee”). The Base Fee is an amount equal to the greater of 5.75% of the lease payments of the Properties per month and $333 per month. The Asset Management Fees consist of a success fee for each Retail Property sold which varies based on the sales proceeds and date sold.
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Trust, as well as all wholly owned subsidiaries of the Trust. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (the “Reporting Periods”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements have been omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. The information presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements is unaudited and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Amounts as of December 31, 2023 included in the consolidated financial statements have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but do not include all annual disclosures required by GAAP. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Trust's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "10-K"), as certain disclosures in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that would duplicate those included in the 10-K are not included in these consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications For the six months ended June 30, 2023, amounts have been reclassified from "changes in accounts receivable" to "straight-line rental income, net" in the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows to conform with the 2024 presentation.
