Commitments and Contingencies | Note 8—Commitments and Contingencies ​ Office Leases ​ As of December 31, 2025, the Company had four leases in place for office space and office equipment with payments ranging between $252 and $14,046 per month and lease terms expiring between November 2026 and October 2027. The Company recognizes right of use assets and related lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company estimated the value of the lease liabilities using discount rates ranging from 5.51% to 6.17%, equivalent to the rates we would pay on a secured borrowing with similar terms to the lease at the inception of the lease. Options to extend the lease are excluded in our minimum lease terms unless the option is reasonably certain to be exercised. The Company’s total lease cost during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Minimum annual rental payments under these operating leases, reconciled to the lease liability included in our consolidated balance sheets, are as follows (in thousands): ​

​ Litigation ​ In the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to various litigation, claims and assessments. The total outstanding claims against the Company are an aggregate of $3.4 million. The Company’s accrual for these claims is immaterial and believes that the resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, liquidity or results of operation. ​ On July 2, 2021, the Company filed a complaint against First Sabrepoint Capital Management, LP, Sabrepoint Capital Partners, LP, Sabrepoint Capital Participation, LP, George Baxter, and Donald Marchiony (collectively, “Sabrepoint”) in the Civil District Courts of Dallas County, Texas seeking relief for their role, as alleged in the complaint, in the previously disclosed 2018 “short and distort” scheme to profit from an artificial decline in our stock price. Certain Sabrepoint defendants had prevailed previously on a motion to dismiss the case against them in the Rota Fortunae action in the United State District Court for the District of Colorado (where the state case had been removed) solely on personal jurisdiction grounds. On December 17, 2021, the Company's claims against Sabrepoint in Texas were dismissed by the trial court, which granted (i) Sabrepoint's motion for summary judgment on collateral estoppel grounds, and (ii) motion to dismiss pursuant to the Texas Citizens Participation Act (“TCPA”). On March 21, 2022, after the Company filed a notice signaling an intent to appeal both orders, the Court of Appeals for the Fifth District of Texas (the “Court of Appeals”) entered an order declaring the trial court's TCPA order “VOID because the motion was denied by operation of law….” Accordingly, the Company narrowed its appeal to the trial court's grant of summary judgment. On January 26, 2022, Sabrepoint filed a motion for attorney's fees relating to the defense of that action. The trial court granted the motion for certain fees claimed by Sabrepoint as relating to its pursuit of its TCPA motion, but as noted above, the Court of Appeals subsequently overturned the TCPA order that formed the basis of Sabrepoint’s fee request, mooting the motion and the Court’s order on the same. On June 30, 2023, the Court of Appeals granted the Company’s appeal, determining that the Company’s claims against Sabrepoint are not barred, reversing the trial court and remanding the case for further proceedings on the merits. On October 13, 2023, Sabrepoint filed a Petition for Review with the Texas Supreme Court, requesting the court to review the Court of Appeals’ decision. The Company filed a response to the Sabrepoint Petition for Review with the Texas Supreme Court on December 27, 2023. Sabrepoint filed a reply in support of its petition on January 25, 2024, and on February 16, 2024, the court requested a briefing on the merits. On January 16, 2025, the Texas Supreme Court held oral arguments, and on April 25, 2025 the court issued an order affirming the Texas Court of Appeals’ decision that the Company’s claims are not barred under the doctrine of collateral estoppel, and remanding the case to the Court of Appeals for further briefing with respect to Sabrepoint’s TCPA motion. On October 20, 2025, the Company filed its petition with the Texas Court of Appeals, and on January 20, 2026 Sabrepoint filed its response. The parties are awaiting further action by the Texas Court of Appeals. The Company believes that the Texas Court of Appeals may resolve the remaining issues in its favor and that the Company will ultimately be permitted to proceed with its claims against Sabrepoint before the trial court; however, there can be no assurance as to the outcome of these proceedings. ​ Repurchase Options ​ For certain of the Company’s acquisitions, the seller retains the option to repurchase the property at a future date for a price, which is calculated based on an appreciation factor over the original purchase price plus the value of improvements on the property, that, at the time of the acquisition, the Company expected would be at or above the property’s fair market value at the exercise date. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had an approximate aggregate net book value of $0.7 million related to assets with unexercised repurchase options. As of January 1, 2024, the Company had received payments totaling $3.5 million related to an exercised repurchase option on a property. Effective March 1, 2024, the repurchase option and the lease agreement were terminated by mutual agreement, whereby the Company received a lease termination fee of $0.8 million which was recorded within rental income and retained approximately $1.2 million which was recorded in income from forfeited deposits during the year ended December 31, 2024. ​ Employee Retirement Plan ​ Effective February 1, 2022, the Company amended the Murray Wise Associates 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan and Trust to make it available to all eligible employees of the Company under the revised Farmland Partners Operating Partnership, LP 401(k) Plan (the “FPI 401(k) Plan”). The FPI 401(k) Plan is a defined contribution plan for substantially all employees. The Company has elected a “safe harbor” plan in which the Company plans to make contributions which are determined and authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors each plan year. As is customary, the Company retains the right to amend the FPI 401(k) Plan at its discretion. The Company had an accrued liability for safe harbor contributions of $0.1 million and less than $0.1 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
