With that, I will turn the call over to John.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Thank you, Jenna, and good morning, everyone. We are pleased to report a strong first quarter in 2026, building on a record level of investment activity we achieved in 2025. We continue to execute our investment strategy by seeking to assemble a high-quality portfolio of single-tenant net lease properties leased to investment grade-rated tenants, in addition to originating commercial loans with attractive risk-adjusted returns secured by high-quality real estate with strong, experienced sponsors. During the quarter, we acquired a retail property in downtown Aspen, Colorado, for $10 million. This acquisition was structured as a 50-year absolute triple net master lease at initial cap rate of 8.5% with 1.25% annual rent escalators.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

With regards to the property dispositions, we continue to selectively prune our portfolio, selling three non-investment grade-rated lease properties for $5.8 million at a weighted average exit cap of 7.4%. As a result of our combined first quarter property transactions, our property portfolio consists of 125 properties totaling 4.3 million sq ft across 31 states with a 99.5% occupancy and a WALT of 9.3 years. 50% of our ABR is generated from investment grade-rated tenants with Lowe's, Dick's Sporting Goods, Walmart and Best Buy representing four of our top five tenants. Additionally, during the quarter, we originated a $32 million first mortgage loan, of which $8.6 million was funded at close.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

The loan carries a 24-month term with an initial interest rate of 13%, inclusive of a 1.5% paid in kind interest, stepping down to an 11.5% current pay rate upon the borrower meeting certain conditions. The loan will fund the development of a 101,000 sq ft retail center with national investment grade-rated tenants and three out parcels. The retail center is located in the Atlanta MSA, is shadow anchored by a 128,500 sq ft Target currently in development and is adjacent to an existing Publix, creating a strong and varied merchandising mix. Further, with regards to our commercial loan portfolio, we closed and funded the $31.8 million phase two of our first mortgage loan investment secured by a luxury residential development located in Austin, Texas metropolitan area.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

The A-1 participation that was previously announced contributed an additional $10.8 million towards this funding. Accordingly, net of the A-1 participation, our combined investment in phase one and phase two of this loan was $40 million at quarter end. Reflecting this quarter's loan activity, including two loan repayments totaling $7.2 million in January, our commercial loan portfolio totaled $160.4 million with a weighted average current yield including PIK interest of 13.5% at quarter end. We have sought to originate loan investments that complement our property portfolio and increase the overall yield earned on our total assets. Notably, our loan portfolio has now grown to our targeted level of approximately 20% of our total undepreciated asset value.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

However, as noted previously, timing of funding and repayments of loan investments may cause the relative size of loan portfolio to vary quarter-to-quarter. Looking forward, we have a highly attractive pipeline of investment opportunities, including high-quality properties, net lease investment grade tenants, and attractive loan opportunities. Given this robust pipeline and our recently completed investment activity, we utilized both our common and preferred ATM programs this quarter, raising a combined $36.2 million of equity. Furthermore, we are raising our 2026 outlook for investment volume by $100 million and increasing guidance for FFO and AFFO per diluted share to new ranges that imply approximately 12% growth at the midpoints. With that, I'll turn the call over to Phil.

[Philip Mays, CFO at Alpine]

Thanks, John. Beginning with financial results. For the quarter, total revenue was $18.4 million, including lease income of $12.6 million, and interest income from commercial loan investments of $5.8 million. FFO and AFFO for the quarter were both $0.53/diluted share, representing 20% growth over the prior year period. Earnings growth for the quarter was driven by investment activity, in particular, our commercial loan investments, as we grew the loan portfolio to approximately 20% of our total undepreciated asset value. Moving to the balance sheet. During the first quarter, we amended and restated our unsecured credit facility. Our new facility includes a $250 million revolver due February 2030 with two six-month extension options, a $100 million term loan maturing in 2029, and a $100 million term loan maturing in 2031.

[Philip Mays, CFO at Alpine]

At closing, we applied existing SOFR swaps, locking in initial fixed interest rates for both term loans at approximately 3.5% for $100 million of the outstanding balance under the revolving facility at approximately 4.8%. As the existing swap agreements mature, we have entered into four swap agreements, which will result in changes to the current interest rates. I refer you to our prior press release announcing the amended credit facility, which discusses the timing and impact of those changes. Notably, with the closing of this facility, we now have no debt maturing for almost three years. During the quarter, we were also active on both our common and preferred ATM programs. Under our common ATM, we issued approximately 1.7 million shares at a weighted average gross price of $19.31/share for net proceeds of $31.6 million.

[Philip Mays, CFO at Alpine]

Under our preferred ATM, we issued approximately 186,000 shares at a weighted average gross price of $25.17/share for net proceeds of $4.6 million. Reflecting our investment activity and equity issuance, we ended the quarter with net debt to pro forma adjusted EBITDA of 6.6x and approximately $90 million of liquidity. John provided an update on our property portfolio. As previously noted, our property portfolio includes properties acquired through sale leaseback transactions, and at quarter end, approximately 11% of our ABR or $5 million is generated from these properties, which include the Aspen property acquired this quarter and three previously acquired restaurants. Although these sale leaseback properties constitute real estate for both tax and legal purposes, GAAP requires them to be accounted for as financings. Accordingly, current annual cash payments from these properties of approximately $3.7 million are reflected as interest income rather than lease income.

[Philip Mays, CFO at Alpine]

As a reminder, our quarterly earnings press release includes a supplemental table that provides the details for both our commercial loan portfolio and related interest earnings. With respect to our common dividend, as previously announced in February, the board increased our quarterly common dividend by 5.3% from $0.285/share to $0.30/share beginning this quarter. This new quarterly common dividend rate represents just a 57% AFFO payout ratio for the quarter. Now turning to guidance. For the full year 2026, we are increasing our FFO outlook to a new range of $2.09-$2.13/diluted share, and our AFFO outlook to a new range of $2.11-$2.15/diluted share. Further, as John discussed, we are increasing our investment activity by $100 million to a new range of $170 million-$200 million. With that, Operator, please open the call to questions.

[Operator]

Certainly. As a reminder, to ask a question, please press star one one on your touchtone telephone and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw your question, please press star one one again. Please stand by while we compile our Q&A roster. Our first question will be coming from the line of Michael Goldsmith of UBS. Your line is open, Michael.

[Michael Goldsmith, Analyst at UBS]

Good morning. Thanks a lot for taking my question. First question, guys. You've talked about the strategy of high-quality net lease in combination with the commercial loan. Can you just talk a little bit about your acquisitions, your activity in the quarter, and then what's in the pipeline and how that fits with that overall strategy?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Yeah. I think it's pretty straightforward. We have a fair amount of activity in the pipeline right now that we're really trying to bring in some additional investment-grade credits higher up in our credit profile, and we're finding some good opportunities. We're actually very optimistic on what we can do in this coming quarter. On the loan side, there are a couple loans still in the pipeline. As we have some lower yielding loans burn off, pay off in the upcoming months, that will be a nice recycle into higher yielding and high-quality loans. It's kind of a little bit more of the same. Everything looks pretty good from our perspective right now.

[Michael Goldsmith, Analyst at UBS]

Thanks for that. To follow up on your last point, I presume you're referring to this July 2026 loan. Is that only, I guess, you have one more kind of near-term loan expiring off in 2026. I guess as you commented in the call how that could add some volatility to the earnings, but do you feel good about the opportunities to redeploy and limit some of that volatility in the near to intermediate term?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Yeah. We feel very confident on kind of as we've expanded the loan program and done multiple loans with these developers, they They are getting very used to kind of the way we do business and the bespoke way we can kind of tailor these loans with their development needs. As these loans pay off, there's something else in the pipeline that they need to accommodate. The pipeline's very strong and very high quality, and the sponsors are high quality as well. Yeah. Feeling good that these lower yielding loans that are going to be paying off, we think, early. We'll have good opportunities to reinvest.

[Michael Goldsmith, Analyst at UBS]

Thank you very much. Good luck in the second quarter.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Thanks. Appreciate it.

[Operator]

Yeah. Our next question will be coming from the line of Jay Kornreich, VP. Your line is open.

[Jay Kornreich, VP at Cantor Fitzgerald]

Hey, good morning. At the end of your comments, you referenced the loan portfolio nearly at the cap of 20% of total assets. Should we expect kind of a shift in strategy from here where the bulk of new investments are coming more so from the more traditional net lease real estate instead of the loans? And if so, I guess, how do you view your cost of capital and deal spreads you could achieve on those types of new investments?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Yeah. We do have a larger amount in the pipeline of traditional net lease investments. As far as some of the additional loans in the pipeline, as I mentioned, those will probably be fulfilling a need that we have with the lower yielding loans paying off. With regards to kind of our cost of capital, as you know, in our 5+ years, we've always been kind of cost of capital, kind of constrained. We do move out some properties at lower cap rates and recycle, but the yields that we have in front of us on the net lease acquisition side work well with sort of our capital structure right now. Philip, do you want to chime in on that sort of end?

[Philip Mays, CFO at Alpine]

Yeah, I think that's right. Then, if you just think about it going forward, Jay, kind of we are near that 20% cap, kind of an 80/20 blend, 80% properties, 20% loans. You look at the yields we've done in both of those buckets. I think our cost of capital works nicely with that.

[Jay Kornreich, VP at Cantor Fitzgerald]

Okay. I appreciate that commentary. Then I guess just maybe on the disposition side, you guys have done a significant amount of work over the past 18 or so months just with right-sizing tenant exposures, shrinking exposure to Walgreens and dollar stores, while I guess also buying higher credit in Walmart. Are there any other specific exposures you're kind of focused on right-sizing at this point?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

No, not really. Even though, I think in the past we've gotten asked about At Home and so forth, but the At Homes that we have are very high performing. We've had interest from other tenants that want to buy the At Home and bring in their concept, and At Home is not interested in moving. We're in a good spot where we've gotten a high yielding asset in a great location in Charlotte, and we're pretty confident they're going to be renewing because they're declining people that want to give them a check. Even though you may see some credits that don't fit, it's all about the quality of the real estate.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

There's actually one that we're working on right now that you would say would be a very low-quality tenant, but we have an investment-grade tenant that wants to take over that space, and it looks like we'll be able to negotiate a buyout. We're always looking to prune and upgrade. It's all about the locations that we kind of really specialize in trying to buy that we know that if these tenants leave, there's going to be a nice replacement opportunity.

[Jay Kornreich, VP at Cantor Fitzgerald]

Okay. Appreciate that color. That's it for me.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Great.

[Operator]

Our next question will come from the line of Matthew Erdner of JonesTrading. Your line is open.

[Matthew Erdner, Analyst at JonesTrading]

Hey, good morning, guys. Thanks for taking the questions. Yeah, sticking with the loan portfolio for a little bit, do you guys have any loan-to-own options that you see yourselves capitalizing on, or is it just going to be kind of recycled back into new loans?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Yeah. The cap rates that they'll be able to sell these assets will not work with sort of our investment program. Most likely, none of these will turn into ownership positions. Certainly, as the developers build these tenants out and look to sell them, they give us a right or really just come to us and say, "Do you want to buy it, and we'll save a real estate commission." The cap rates are very strong for these assets, so unfortunately, they just really won't fit. Hopefully down the road, we'll find some where we can actually fit those into. If we have a 1031 need, that could be more where that opportunity comes in.

[Matthew Erdner, Analyst at JonesTrading]

Got it. That's helpful. Looking out a little bit into 2027, 2028, it looks like 20% of the leases are rolling over. Could you just kind of walk through the process and if you've started discussions with some of those tenants and just how you envision those discussions going?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Yeah. I think that everything that we have coming up, we've been in discussions with these tenants over time, and if we had issues, we would probably be dealing with them early. I feel very strong that these are going to be renewal candidates. As you know, that's one of the opportunities where we like to buy with the shorter term leases with the high chance of renewal. A lot of these things are below market, and so that's why you're going to probably see a lot of natural renewals happen and usually get a bump on the leases as well.

[Matthew Erdner, Analyst at JonesTrading]

Got it. That's great color. That's all for me. Congrats on the quarter.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Thanks. Appreciate it.

[Operator]

Our next question will come from the line of Gaurav Mehta of A.G.P., Alliance Global Partners. Your line is open.

[Gaurav Mehta, Analyst at Alliance Global Partners]

Yeah. Thank you. Good morning. I wanted to ask you on your investment-grade exposure and the lease term, as you look to acquire more properties, should we expect that you would look to increase that exposure and increase the lease term further?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Yeah. Look, that's always the goal. There's a little bit of a mix. There's some properties in the acquisition pipeline that are shorter duration. There's definitely an opportunity to go in there and do an extend blend. Again, as I just mentioned, a lot of the lease rates are so low that we don't really want to give up that bump because we want higher lease duration. What we have here in the pipeline is accretive to our lease duration as far as getting that longer term. That'll look pretty good for us. Again, we're not in a hurry to kind of just have a higher lease duration and give up economics to our shareholders.

[Gaurav Mehta, Analyst at Alliance Global Partners]

Thanks for that color. Second question on the investment guidance, just to clarify the $170 million-$200 million, is that what you're deploying or is that on the loan side that includes what you're funding or it's just originations?

[Philip Mays, CFO at Alpine]

Yeah. Generally both funding and deploying or if you want to look at the loans on an origination basis, both will fall in that range. I would say probably the funding is going to be just looking at the pipeline. It's a little hard to estimate the future loans and what funds are closing. Right now, I'd say the funding is probably $20 million less than the deployment including full origination values, but both will fall within that range.

[Gaurav Mehta, Analyst at Alliance Global Partners]

All right, thanks for taking my question.

[Operator]

Our next question will be coming from the line of Wesley Golladay of Baird. Your line is open, Wesley.

[Wesley Golladay, Analyst at Baird]

Hey. Good morning, everyone. I just want to go back to the question about the lease renewals. Do a lot of those tenants with the below market leases, do they have options or can you just mark those to market?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

They have options. Unfortunately it's going to be a set bump based on the renewal options.

[Wesley Golladay, Analyst at Baird]

Okay. A quick one on the accounting side. There's a lot of restricted cash around $24 million. Is that mainly tied to the more senior loans that you sold, and does that restricted cash get released throughout the year?

[Philip Mays, CFO at Alpine]

Hey, Wes, it's Phil. Yeah, most of that restricted cash at the end of the quarter is related to loan reserves. We take pretty healthy reserves upfront as part of our loan process and closing. A lot of that restricted cash is related to loan reserves.

[Wesley Golladay, Analyst at Baird]

Okay. Thank you very much.

[Operator]

Next question will come from the line of RJ Milligan of Raymond James. Your line is open.

[RJ Milligan, Analyst at Raymond James]

Hey, good morning, guys. Maybe to follow up on that loan reserves comment, Phil. Obviously, with net lease, we can go down the top tenant list and look for people that are on the watch list. We don't have a lot of visibility on the loan book. I'm just curious if there's anything that you guys have on the watch list in terms of the loan book. Obviously, the PIK is a pretty big component. Is there anything that gives you any concern about collecting that as those loans mature?

[Philip Mays, CFO at Alpine]

Yeah. Let me be clear about the loan reserves. We'll take reserves related to real estate taxes or a certain period of interest upfront. It's just part of our underwriting, and Steven or John can chime in and provide more details on that. We don't really have any credit concerns about any of the loans. None of those reserves are credit related. It is just part of our underwriting, conservative underwriting, and making sure we get nice cash deposits upfront related to like a year of debt service or something like that.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Yeah. RJ, we basically want to really have these loans structured pretty tightly. We force the reserve, so we don't have to worry about real estate taxes, interest, and so forth. Out of our loan book, there are no concerns right now. The PIK is really done to accommodate the timing of how long it takes to develop. You have less cash burn while you're developing. The book is very healthy right now.

[RJ Milligan, Analyst at Raymond James]

Great. That's helpful. Phil, maybe just on the capital raising side, you guys did a little preferred and some equity this year. How do you think about the more attractive capital sources going forward as we move through the year?

[Philip Mays, CFO at Alpine]

Yeah, we ended the quarter with about $90 million of liquidity. At this point, we're generating probably close to $15 million of cash flow on an annual run rate. That's obviously a great use for us on the free cash flow. John spoke earlier about dispositions at a lower cap rate, so that would be another use. After that, RJ, we could look to be opportunistic on common or preferred if it's trading at a good level.

[RJ Milligan, Analyst at Raymond James]

Okay, that's helpful. Thanks, guys.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Thank you.

[Operator]

Our next question comes from the line of John Massocca of B. Riley Securities. Your line is open.

[John Massocca, Analyst at B. Riley Securities]

Good morning. I know we've talked a lot about the loan book over the call, but maybe kind of going to the one new loan originated in 1Q, there's a step down in there if they meet certain conditions. What are, kind of maybe some color around the conditions that they would need to hit to get down to that 11.5%?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Yeah. Basically, they've been negotiating leases and waiting for tenants to go through their signing process. If some of the leases hadn't been signed by the time we closed it, we said, the rate needs to be higher until you kind of get those finalized. It should be relatively short duration, unfortunately. That's what that's about.

[John Massocca, Analyst at B. Riley Securities]

Okay. I know the Austin loan was kind of contingent on them selling some of the homes in the piece of property. How is that progressing? I guess, how does that impact maybe interest income from that particularly large loan investment you made?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Yeah. I'll answer kind of the cadence on the lot sale. They're selling lots. As you know, as the lots are sold, it goes to our A-1 participant first. Given that it's obviously late spring, the activity is stronger, but the asset has a large amenity that won't be open until the fall. We expect that in the fall is really where the lot sales are going to pick up as people kind of get a lot more excited about it when it's closer to having the large amenity open.

[John Massocca, Analyst at B. Riley Securities]

Okay. I guess maybe the anticipation there is that your portion of the loan won't start getting paid down until towards the end of the year?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Correct.

[John Massocca, Analyst at B. Riley Securities]

Last one, Phil, maybe on guidance. In terms of G&A assumptions in the guidance, are you assuming any incentive fee payout to CTO at this point? I know it's kind of early in the year, but just kind of thoughts around how that could maybe impact your guidance outlook.

[Philip Mays, CFO at Alpine]

Yeah. The guidance doesn't assume any incentive fee. What is in there, right, is a little bit higher of a management fee run rate given the equity that we issued. For the quarter, the management fee was about $1.250 million, just based on the equity that was issued during the quarter. The go-forward run rate's about $100,000 higher per quarter, $1.350 million, assuming no additional equity. Other than adjusting the management fee for our expectations, there's no incentive fee in the guidance.

[John Massocca, Analyst at B. Riley Securities]

Okay. I appreciate that. That's it for me. Thank you.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Great. Thanks.

[Operator]

Our next question will come from the line of Craig Kucera of Lucid Capital Markets. Your line is open, Craig.

[Craig Kucera, Analyst at Lucid Capital Markets]

Hey, good morning, guys. We've been hearing from some of your competitors that there are an increasing number of portfolios coming to the market, basically from family offices that got into the space in 2021 and issued five-year debt at rock bottom rates. Maybe they don't want to refinance. Are you seeing any small portfolios that might be attractive as acquisition candidates?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

We're seeing a little bit of owners of assets that are coming up on a duration, or they want to lower their exposure in a larger portfolio. We're not seeing bigger portfolio sort of opportunities. The ones that we're looking at are really nice size for us, and luckily, being a small-cap company is that these assets can really move the needle versus the very large companies that really need to do those portfolio acquisitions. We'll let the large tankers take on those, and as we just add these one and twos, they all add up very nicely for us. We're not really chasing any sort of portfolio opportunities.

[Craig Kucera, Analyst at Lucid Capital Markets]

Okay, got it. Just one more for me. I think you were buying at about a 7.4% cash cap rate last year. This quarter, you closed at 8.5%. Just curious to hear your overall viewpoint on the acquisition environment. Has there been any move in pricing, or should we expect something closer to, call it, 7.5% this year?

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Yeah, you're going to be closer to 7.5%, this coming quarter at least. Maybe might see some opportunities in a quarter or two that are higher.

[Craig Kucera, Analyst at Lucid Capital Markets]

Okay. All right, thanks. That's it for me.

[John Albright, President and CEO at Alpine]

Great. Thank you.
