GLADSTONE LAND CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION
Business and Organization
Gladstone Land Corporation (the “Company”) is an agricultural real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that was re-incorporated in Maryland on March 24, 2011, having been originally incorporated in California on June 14, 1997. Upon the pricing of our initial public offering on January 29, 2013, our shares of common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”), under the symbol “LAND.” We are primarily in the business of owning and leasing farmland, and we conduct substantially all of our operations through a subsidiary, Gladstone Land Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership. As we currently control the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and own, directly or indirectly, a majority of the common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”), the financial position and results of operations of the Operating Partnership are consolidated within our financial statements. As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company owned approximately 99.3% and 98.6%, respectively, of the outstanding OP Units (see Note 8, “Equity,” for additional discussion regarding OP Units).
Gladstone Land Advisers, Inc. (“Land Advisers”), a Delaware corporation and a subsidiary of ours, was created to collect certain non-qualifying income related to our real estate portfolio and to perform certain small-scale farming business operations. We have elected for Land Advisers to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) of ours. Since we currently own 100% of the voting securities of Land Advisers, its financial position and results of operations are consolidated within our financial statements.
Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, and pursuant to contractual agreements, our business is managed by Gladstone Management Corporation (the “Adviser”), a Delaware corporation, and administrative services are provided to us by Gladstone Administration, LLC (the “Administrator”), a Delaware limited liability company. Our Adviser and Administrator are both affiliates of ours (see Note 6, “Related-Party Transactions,” for additional discussion regarding our Adviser and Administrator).
All further references herein to “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer, collectively, to Gladstone Land Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, except where indicated otherwise.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Interim Financial Information
Our interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring accruals) necessary for the fair statement of financial statements for the interim period have been included. The interim financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 19, 2020 (the “Form 10-K”). The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or for the full fiscal year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the impact of extraordinary events, such as the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, the results of which form the basis for making certain judgments. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates.
Impairment of Real Estate Assets
10

Table of Contents
We account for the impairment of our tangible and identifiable intangible real estate assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment” (“ASC 360”), which requires us to periodically review the carrying value of each property to determine whether indicators of impairment exist. If circumstances support the possibility of impairment, we prepare a projection of the total undiscounted future cash flows of the specific property (without interest charges), including proceeds from disposition, and compare them to the net book value of the property to determine whether the carrying value of the property is recoverable. If the carrying amount is more than the aggregate undiscounted future cash flows, we would recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property.
We evaluate our entire portfolio each quarter for any impairment indicators and perform an impairment analysis on those select properties that have an indication of impairment. As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, we concluded that none of our properties were impaired. There have been no impairments recognized on our real estate assets since our inception.
Income Taxes
We have operated and intend to continue to operate in a manner that will allow us to qualify as a REIT under the Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a REIT, we generally are not subject to federal corporate income taxes on amounts that we distribute to our stockholders (except income from any foreclosure property), provided that, on an annual basis, we distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (excluding net capital gains) to our stockholders and meet certain other conditions. As such, in general, as long as we qualify as a REIT, no provision for federal income taxes will be necessary, except for taxes on undistributed REIT taxable income and taxes on the income generated by a TRS (such as Land Advisers), if any. For the tax year ended December 31, 2019 and for the six months ended June 30, 2020, we did not have any undistributed REIT taxable income, nor was there any taxable income or loss from Land Advisers. Should we have any taxable income or loss in the future, we will account for any income taxes in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” using the asset and liability method.
Reclassifications
Certain information on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2019, has been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on previously-reported stockholders’ equity, net income, or net change in cash and cash equivalents.
Recently-Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 requires more timely recognition of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments that are not accounted for at fair market value through net income. The standard also requires that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount anticipated to be collected via an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. Pursuant to ASU 2016-13, we are required to measure all expected credit losses based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable (and supportable) forecasts that affect the collectability of the financial asset. We adopted ASU 2016-13 beginning with the three months ended March 31, 2020, which has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)” (“ASU 2020-04”). The main provisions of this update provide optional expedients and exceptions for contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020. We adopted ASU 2020-04 beginning with the three months ended March 31, 2020, which has not resulted in a material impact to our consolidated financial statements, as ASU 2020-04 allows for prospective application of any changes in the effective interest rate for LIBOR-based debt and also provides for practical expedients that will allow us to continue to treat our derivative instruments designed as cash flow hedges consistent to how they are accounted for now.
In April 2020, the FASB issued a staff question-and-answer document, “Topic 842 and Topic 840: Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic” (the “COVID-19 Q&A”), to address certain frequently-asked questions pertaining to lease concessions arising from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Existing lease guidance requires entities to determine if a lease concession was a result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (which would be addressed under the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (which would not fall under the lease modification accounting framework). The COVID-19 Q&A clarifies that entities may elect to not evaluate whether lease-related relief granted in light of the effects of COVID-19 is a lease modification, provided that the concession does not result in a substantial increase in rights of the lessor
11

or obligations of the lessee. This election is available for concessions that result in the total payments required by the modified contract being substantially the same as or less than the total payments required by the original contract. In July 2020, we granted rent deferrals to two tenants who owed aggregate rents of approximately $343,000, which was originally scheduled to be paid on July 1, 2020. The agreements with these tenants provide for extensions of up to 123 days, extending the new due dates for these rental payments to be on or before November 1, 2020. We anticipate electing to not evaluate these lease amendments under the lease modification accounting framework.
NOTE 3. REAL ESTATE AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
All of our properties are wholly-owned on a fee-simple basis, except where noted. The following table provides certain summary information about the 115 farms we owned as of June 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands, except for footnotes):

Table of Contents
In connection with the acquisition of a 366-acre vineyard located in Napa, California (“Withers Road”), on August 28, 2019, we committed to provide up to approximately $4.0 million as additional compensation, contingent upon the County of Napa approving the planting of additional vineyards on up to 47 acres of the property by February 25, 2020 (the “Permit Deadline”). In addition, if approval was obtained, we also committed to contribute up to $40,000 per approved acre for the development of such vineyards. While approval of the additional plantings was not received from the County of Napa by the Permit Deadline, in March 2020, we executed an agreement with the tenant on Withers Road to extend the Permit Deadline until August 24, 2020.
In April 2020, we received notification from the County of Napa informing us that it had approved of additional vineyard plantings on 38.7 acres of the property. As such, in May 2020, we paid additional compensation related to this acquisition of approximately $3.2 million. As a result, and pursuant to a lease amendment, we will earn additional straight-line rental income of approximately $335,000 per year throughout the remaining term of the lease, which expires on December 31, 2029. We will also earn additional rent on any of the aforementioned development costs as they are incurred by us.
Leasing Activity

(1) | In connection with certain of these leases, we committed to provide capital for certain improvements on these farms. See Note 7, “Commitments and Contingencies—Operating Obligations,” for additional information on these commitments.

(2) | Two of the prior leases encompassing four of our farms were renewed under a single lease encompassing the same four farms.

(3) | Annualized straight-line rent is based on the minimum cash rental payments guaranteed under the leases (presented on an annualized basis), as required under GAAP, and excludes contingent rental payments, such as participation rents.

(4) | “NNN” refers to leases under triple-net lease arrangements, “NN” refers to leases under partial-net lease arrangements, and “N” refers to leases under single-net lease arrangements. For a description of each of these types of lease arrangements, see “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Overview—Leases—General.”

Lease Termination
On February 10, 2020, we reached an agreement with a tenant occupying four of our farms in Arizona to terminate the existing leases encompassing those four farms effective February 10, 2020. As part of the termination agreement, the outgoing tenant made a one-time termination payment to us of approximately $3.0 million, which we recognized as additional lease revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The prior leases were scheduled to expire on September 15, 2026 (with two of the farms subject to the renewal of certain state leases currently scheduled to expire on February 14, 2022, and February 14, 2025). In connection with the early termination of these leases, during the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized approximately $89,000 of prepaid rent as additional lease revenue and wrote off an aggregate net deferred rent balance of approximately $254,000 against lease revenue. In addition, approximately $470,000 of unamortized lease intangible assets related to the terminated leases were written off and charged to amortization expense during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Upon termination of these leases, we entered into a new, seven-year lease with a new tenant effective immediately. These leases are included in the Leasing Activity table above.
Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
In connection with the acquisition of 2,110 gross acres of farmland located in Fresno County, California (“Sutter Avenue”), which occurred in two phases during the year ended December 31, 2019, we also acquired an ownership in a related LLC, the sole purpose of which is to own and maintain a pipeline conveying water to this and other neighboring properties. On August 16, 2019, we acquired an 11.75% ownership interest in the LLC that was valued at approximately $280,000 at the time of acquisition. On November 1, 2019, we acquired an additional 13.25% interest in the LLC that was valued at approximately $307,000 at the time of acquisition. As our investment in the LLC is deemed to constitute “significant influence,” we have accounted for this investment under the equity method.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded (loss) income of approximately $(8,000) and $26,000, respectively (included on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income as Income from investments in unconsolidated entities), which represents our pro-rata share of the (loss) income recognized by the LLC. Prior to fiscal year 2020, we had not recorded any material income or loss related to our ownership interest in the LLC. Our combined ownership interest in the LLC, which had an aggregate carrying value of approximately $613,000 and $587,000, as

Concentrations
Credit Risk
As of June 30, 2020, our farms were leased to 72 different, unrelated third-party tenants, with certain tenants leasing more than one farm. Due primarily to an early lease termination payment of approximately $3.0 million received from an outgoing tenant (“Tenant A”) during the six months ended June 30, 2020 (see “—Lease Termination” above), aggregate lease revenue attributable to Tenant A accounted for approximately $3.0 million, or 10.1%, of the total lease revenue recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, we are no longer a party to any contractual agreements with Tenant A. No other individual tenant represented greater than 10.0% of the total lease revenue recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Geographic Risk
Farms located in California, Florida, and Arizona accounted for approximately $13.8 million (49.5%), $6.7 million (23.9%) and $3.8 million (13.6%), respectively, of the total lease revenue recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Though we seek to continue to further diversify geographically, as may be desirable or feasible, should an unexpected natural disaster occur where our properties are located, there could be a material adverse effect on our financial performance and ability to continue operations. No other single state accounted for more than 10.0% of our total lease revenue recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

In addition, 2019 interest patronage from our Farm Credit Notes Payable (as defined below), which we recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2020, resulted in a 20.4% reduction (approximately 98 basis points) to the stated interest rates on such borrowings. We are unable to estimate the amount of interest patronage to be received, if any, related to interest accrued during 2020 on our Farm Credit Notes Payable.
As of June 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all covenants applicable to the above borrowings.
New MetLife Facility
As of December 31, 2019, our facility with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (“MetLife”) consisted of a total of $200.0 million of term notes (the “Prior MetLife Term Notes”) and $75.0 million of revolving equity lines of credit (the “MetLife Lines of Credit,” and together with the Prior MetLife Term Notes, the “Prior MetLife Facility”). The draw period for the Prior MetLife Term Notes expired on December 31, 2019, with approximately $21.5 million being left undrawn, and MetLife had no obligation to disburse the remaining funds under those notes.
On February 20, 2020, we entered into an agreement with MetLife to remove the MetLife Lines of Credit from the Prior MetLife Facility and create a new credit facility consisting of a new $75.0 million long-term note payable (the “New MetLife Term Note”) and the MetLife Lines of Credit (collectively, the “New MetLife Facility”).
The following table summarizes the pertinent terms of the New MetLife Facility as of June 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands, except for footnotes):

Issuance |  | Aggregate Commitment |  | Maturity Dates |  | Principal Outstanding |  | Interest Rate Terms |  | Undrawn Commitment |
New MetLife Term Note |  | $ | 75,000 |  | (1) | 1/5/2030 |  | $ | — |  |  | N/A | (2) | 75,000 |  | (3)
MetLife Lines of Credit |  | 75,000 |  |  | 4/5/2024 |  | 100 |  |  | 3-month LIBOR + 2.00% | (4) | 74,900 |  | (3)
Total principal outstanding |  |  |  | $ | 100 |  |  |  |  |  |

(1) | If the aggregate commitment under the New MetLife Term Note is not fully utilized by December 31, 2022, MetLife has the option to be relieved of its obligation to disburse the additional funds under the New MetLife Term Note.

(2) | Interest rates on any disbursements under the New MetLife Term Note will be based on prevailing market rates at the time of such disbursements. In addition, through December 31, 2022, the New MetLife Term Note is also subject to an unused fee ranging from 0.10% to 0.20% on undrawn amounts (based on the balance drawn under the New MetLife Term Note).

(3) | Based on the properties that were pledged as collateral under the New MetLife Facility, as of June 30, 2020, the maximum additional amount we could draw under the facility was approximately $24.2 million.

(4) | The interest rate on the MetLife Lines of Credit is subject to a minimum annualized rate of 2.50%, plus an unused fee ranging from 0.10% to 0.20% on undrawn amounts (based on the balance drawn under each line of credit).

Table of Contents
From time to time since September 2014, we, through certain subsidiaries of our Operating Partnership, have entered into various loan agreements (collectively, the “Farm Credit Notes Payable”) with 10 different Farm Credit associations (collectively, “Farm Credit”). During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we entered into the following loan agreements with Farm Credit (dollars in thousands):

Issuer |  | Date of Issuance |  | Amount |  | Maturity Date |  | Principal Amortization |  | Interest Rate Terms(1)
Premier Farm Credit, FLCA |  | 5/14/2020 |  | $ | 4,500 |  |  | 1/1/2045 |  | 24.6 years |  | 4.00%, fixed through December 31, 2029 (variable thereafter)
Farm Credit West, FLCA |  | 6/24/2020 |  | 600 |  |  | 5/1/2044 |  | 24.2 years |  | 3.00%, fixed through July 31, 2026 (variable thereafter)
Farm Credit West, FLCA |  | 6/24/2020 |  | 600 |  |  | 5/1/2044 |  | 24.2 years |  | 3.00%, fixed through August 31, 2026 (variable thereafter)
Farm Credit West, FLCA |  | 6/25/2020 |  | 8,500 |  |  | 11/1/2045 |  | 25.0 years |  | 3.75%, fixed through June 30, 2030 (variable thereafter)

(1) | Stated rate is before interest patronage, as described below.

Interest patronage, or refunded interest, on our borrowings from Farm Credit is generally recorded upon receipt and is included within Other income on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Receipt of interest patronage typically occurs in the first half of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the respective interest expense is accrued. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded interest patronage of approximately $1.3 million related to interest accrued on the Farm Credit Notes Payable during the year ended December 31, 2019, which resulted in a 20.4% reduction (approximately 98 basis points) to the stated interest rates on such borrowings.
Conterra Note Payable
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we entered into a loan agreement with Conterra Agricultural Capital, LLC (“Conterra”), the terms of which are summarized in the following table (dollars in thousands):

Date of Issuance |  | Amount |  | Maturity Date |  | Principal Amortization |  | Interest Rate Terms
6/8/2020 |  | $ | 2,100 |  |  | 7/1/2027 |  | 30.0 years |  | 3.40%, fixed throughout term

Farmer Mac Facility
On December 5, 2014, we, through certain subsidiaries of our Operating Partnership, entered into a bond purchase agreement (the “Bond Purchase Agreement”) with Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation (“Farmer Mac”) and Farmer Mac Mortgage Securities Corporation (the “Bond Purchaser”), for a secured note purchase facility. As subsequently amended, the Bond Purchase Agreement provided for bond issuances up to an aggregate amount of $125.0 million (the “Farmer Mac Facility”) through December 11, 2018, after which date the Bond Purchaser had the option to continue buying new bonds issued under the Farmer Mac Facility.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we amended and restated one bond for $8.1 million that was previously issued under the Farmer Mac Facility and was originally scheduled to mature on January 10, 2020. The pertinent terms of the amended and restated bond are summarized in the table below (dollars in thousands):

Date of Issuance |  | Amount |  | Maturity Date |  | Principal Amortization |  | Interest Rate Terms
1/10/2020 |  | $ | 8,100 |  |  | 1/12/2024 |  | None (interest only) |  | 2.66%, fixed throughout term

No prepayment penalty was incurred in connection with this amendment, and all other material items of the amended and restated bond remained unchanged.
Debt Service – Aggregate Maturities
Scheduled principal payments of our aggregate notes and bonds payable as of June 30, 2020, for the succeeding years are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Fair Value
ASC 820 provides a definition of fair value that focuses on the exchange (exit) price of an asset or liability in the principal, or most advantageous, market and prioritizes the use of market-based inputs to the valuation. ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

• | Level 1 — inputs that are based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

• | Level 2 — inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active or inactive markets or model-based valuation techniques, for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

• | Level 3 — inputs are generally unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. These unobservable inputs are generally supported by little or no market activity and are based upon management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

As of June 30, 2020, the aggregate fair value of our long-term notes and bonds payable was approximately $496.5 million, as compared to an aggregate carrying value (excluding unamortized related debt issuance costs) of approximately $494.7 million. The fair value of our long-term notes and bonds payable is valued using Level 3 inputs under the hierarchy established by ASC 820-10 and is calculated based on a discounted cash flow analysis, using discount rates based on management’s estimates of market interest rates on long-term debt with comparable terms. Further, due to the revolving nature and variable interest rates applicable to the MetLife Lines of Credit, their aggregate fair value as of June 30, 2020, is deemed to approximate their aggregate carrying value of $100,000.
Interest Rate Swap Agreement
In order to hedge our exposure to variable interest rates, we have entered into various interest rate swap agreements in connection with certain of our mortgage financings. In accordance with these swap agreements, we will pay our counterparty a fixed interest rate on a quarterly basis and receive payments from our counterparty equal to the respective stipulated floating rates. We have adopted the fair value measurement provision for these financial instruments, and the aggregate fair value of our interest rate swap agreements is recorded in Other assets, net or Other liabilities, net, as appropriate, on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Generally, in the absence of observable market data, we will estimate the fair value of our interest rate swaps using estimates of certain data points, including estimated remaining life, counterparty credit risk, current market yield, and interest rate spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date. As of June 30, 2020, our interest rate swaps were valued using Level 2 inputs.
In addition, we have designated our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges, and we record changes in the fair values of the interest rate swap agreements to accumulated other comprehensive income on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We record changes in fair value on a quarterly basis, using current market valuations at quarter end. The following table summarizes our interest rate swap as of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019 (dollars in thousands):

June 30, 2020 |  | December 31, 2019
Aggregate Notional Amount |  | Aggregate Fair Value Asset |  | Aggregate Fair Value Liability |  | Aggregate Notional Amount |  | Aggregate Fair Value Asset |  | Aggregate Fair Value Liability

NOTE 5. MANDATORILY-REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK
In August 2016, we completed a public offering of 6.375% Series A Cumulative Term Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Term Preferred Stock”), at a public offering price of $25.00 per share. As a result of this offering (including the underwriters’ exercise of their option to purchase additional shares to cover over-allotments), we issued a total of 1,150,000 shares of the Series A Term Preferred Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $28.8 million and net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses borne by us, of approximately $27.6 million. The Series A Term Preferred Stock is traded under the ticker symbol “LANDP” on Nasdaq.
Generally, we were not permitted to redeem shares of the Series A Term Preferred Stock prior to September 30, 2018, except in limited circumstances to preserve our qualification as a REIT. Since September 30, 2018, we have been permitted to redeem the shares at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends up to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The shares of the Series A Term Preferred Stock have a mandatory redemption date of September 30, 2021, and are not convertible into our common stock or any other securities. As of June 30, 2020, no shares of Series A Term Preferred Stock have been redeemed.
We incurred approximately $1.2 million in total offering costs related to this issuance, which have been recorded net of the Series A Term Preferred Stock as presented on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are being amortized over the mandatory redemption period as a component of interest expense on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Series A Term Preferred Stock is recorded as a liability on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” which states that mandatorily-redeemable financial instruments should be classified as liabilities. In addition, the related dividend payments are treated similarly to interest expense on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.
As of June 30, 2020, the fair value of our Series A Term Preferred Stock was approximately $30.2 million, as compared to the carrying value (exclusive of unamortized offering costs) of approximately $28.8 million. The fair value of our Series A Term Preferred Stock is valued using Level 1 inputs under the hierarchy established by ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” and is calculated based on the closing per-share price as of June 30, 2020, of $26.27.
For information on the dividends declared by our Board of Directors and paid by us on the Series A Term Preferred Stock during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, see Note 8, “Equity—Distributions.”
NOTE 6. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Our Adviser and Administrator
We are externally managed pursuant to contractual arrangements with our Adviser and our Administrator, which collectively employ all of our personnel and pay their salaries, benefits, and general expenses directly. Both our Adviser and Administrator are affiliates of ours, as their parent company is owned and controlled by David Gladstone, our chairman, chief executive officer, and president. In addition, two of our executive officers, Mr. Gladstone and Terry Brubaker (our vice chairman and chief operating officer), serve as directors and executive officers of each of our Adviser and Administrator, and Michael
20

Table of Contents
LiCalsi, our general counsel and secretary (who also serves as our Administrator’s president, general counsel, and secretary), is also executive vice president of administration of our Adviser.
We have entered into an investment advisory agreement with our Adviser and an administration agreement with our Administrator (the “Administration Agreement”). The advisory agreement with our Adviser that was in effect through March 31, 2017, and the Administration Agreement each became effective February 1, 2013. The advisory agreement with our Adviser that was in effect through June 30, 2019 (the “Prior Advisory Agreement”), was amended and restated on July 9, 2019 (as amended, the “2019 Advisory Agreement”), and again amended and restated on January 14, 2020 (as amended, the “2020 Advisory Agreement,” and, together with the Prior Advisory Agreement and the 2019 Advisory Agreement, the “Advisory Agreements”). The Administration Agreement and each of the Advisory Agreements were approved unanimously by our board of directors, including our independent directors.
A summary of the 2019 Advisory Agreement is provided in Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Form 10-K. A summary of the compensation terms for each of the Prior Advisory Agreement, the 2020 Advisory Agreement, and the Administration Agreement is below.
Advisory Agreements
Pursuant to each of the Prior Advisory Agreement (which was in effect from April 1, 2017, through June 30, 2019), the 2019 Advisory Agreement (which was in effect from July 1, 2019, through December 31, 2019), and the 2020 Advisory Agreement (which has been in effect since January 1, 2020), our Adviser is compensated in the form of a base management fee and, each as applicable, an incentive fee, a capital gains fee, and a termination fee. Our Adviser does not charge acquisition or disposition fees when we acquire or dispose of properties, as is common in other externally-managed REITs. The 2019 Advisory Agreement modified the calculation of the base management and incentive fees to exclude preferred equity from such calculations, while the capital gains and termination fees remained unchanged. The 2020 Advisory Agreement revised and replaced the previous calculation of the base management fee, which was previously based on equity, with a calculation based on gross real estate assets (in each case, as further described below), while all other fees remained unchanged. Each of the base management, incentive, capital gains, and termination fees is described below.
Base Management Fee
Pursuant to the Prior Advisory Agreement, a base management fee was paid quarterly and was calculated as 2.0% per annum (0.50% per quarter) of the calendar quarter’s total adjusted equity, which was defined as total equity plus total mezzanine equity, if any (each as reported on our balance sheet), adjusted to exclude unrealized gains and losses and certain other one-time events and non-cash items (“Total Adjusted Equity”).
Under the 2020 Advisory Agreement, a base management fee is paid quarterly and is calculated at an annual rate of 0.50% (0.125% per quarter) of the prior calendar quarter’s “Gross Tangible Real Estate,” defined as the gross cost of tangible real estate owned by us (including land and land improvements, irrigation and drainage systems, horticulture, farm-related facilities, and other tangible site improvements), prior to any accumulated depreciation, and as shown on our balance sheet or the notes thereto for the applicable quarter.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, our Adviser granted us certain non-contractual, unconditional, and irrevocable waivers, which were applied as credits against the base management fee for the period, as detailed in the table below under “—Related-Party Fees.” We did not have any such waivers for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.
Incentive Fee
Pursuant to the Prior Advisory Agreement, an incentive fee was calculated and payable quarterly in arrears if the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO for a particular quarter exceeded a hurdle rate of 1.75% (7.0% annualized) of the prior calendar quarter’s Total Adjusted Equity.
Under the 2020 Advisory Agreement, an incentive fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears if the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO for a particular quarter exceeds a hurdle rate of 1.75% (7.0% annualized) of the prior calendar quarter’s “Total Adjusted Common Equity,” defined as common stockholders’ equity plus non-controlling common interests in the Operating Partnership, if any (each as reported on our balance sheet), adjusted to exclude unrealized gains and losses and certain other one-time events and non-cash items.
For purposes of the calculation of the Incentive Fee, Pre-Incentive Fee FFO was defined in each of the Advisory Agreements as FFO (also as defined in each of the Advisory Agreements) accrued by the Company during the current calendar quarter (prior to any incentive fee calculation for the current calendar quarter), less any dividends paid on preferred stock securities that were not treated as a liability for GAAP purposes. Our Adviser would receive: (i) no Incentive Fee in any calendar quarter in which the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO did not exceed the hurdle rate; (ii) 100% of the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO with respect to that portion of such Pre-Incentive Fee FFO, if any, that exceeded the hurdle rate but was less than 2.1875% in any calendar quarter
21

Table of Contents
(8.75% annualized); and (iii) 20% of the amount of the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO, if any, that exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized).
Capital Gains Fee
Pursuant to each of the Advisory Agreements, a capital gains-based incentive fee will be calculated and payable in arrears at the end of each fiscal year (or upon termination of the Advisory Agreement). The capital gains fee shall equal: (i) 15% of the cumulative aggregate realized capital gains minus the cumulative aggregate realized capital losses, minus (ii) any aggregate capital gains fees paid in prior periods. For purposes of this calculation, realized capital gains and losses will be calculated as (x) the sales price of the property, minus (y) any costs to sell the property and the then-current gross value of the property (which includes the property’s original acquisition price plus any subsequent, non-reimbursed capital improvements). At the end of each fiscal year, if this figure is negative, no capital gains fee shall be paid.
Termination Fee
Pursuant to each of the Advisory Agreements, in the event of our termination of the agreement with our Adviser for any reason (with 120 days’ prior written notice and the vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors), a termination fee would be payable to the Adviser equal to three times the sum of the average annual base management fee and incentive fee earned by the Adviser during the 24-month period prior to such termination.
Administration Agreement
Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, we pay for our allocable portion of the Administrator’s expenses incurred while performing its obligations to us, including, but not limited to, rent and the salaries and benefits expenses of our Administrator’s employees, including our chief financial officer, treasurer, chief compliance officer, general counsel and secretary (who also serves as our Administrator’s president, general counsel, and secretary), and their respective staffs.
As approved by our Board of Directors, effective July 1, 2014, our allocable portion of the Administrator’s expenses is generally derived by multiplying our Administrator’s total expenses by the approximate percentage of time the Administrator’s employees perform services for us in relation to their time spent performing services for all companies serviced by our Administrator under similar contractual agreements.
Gladstone Securities
On April 11, 2017, we entered into an agreement with Gladstone Securities, LLC (“Gladstone Securities”), for it to act as our non-exclusive agent to assist us with arranging financing for our properties (the “Financing Arrangement Agreement”). Gladstone Securities is a privately-held broker-dealer and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Gladstone Securities is an affiliate of ours, as its parent company is owned and controlled by Mr. Gladstone, who also serves on the board of managers of Gladstone Securities.
Financing Arrangement Agreement
We pay Gladstone Securities a financing fee in connection with the services provided to us for securing financing on our properties. Depending on the size of the financing obtained, the maximum amount of the financing fee, which is payable upon closing of the respective financing, ranges from 0.5% to 1.0% of the amount of financing obtained. The amount of the financing fee may be reduced or eliminated as determined by us and Gladstone Securities after taking into consideration various factors, including, but not limited to, the involvement of any unrelated third-party brokers and general market conditions.
We paid total financing fees to Gladstone Securities of approximately $28,000 during each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, and approximately $26,000 and $28,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Through June 30, 2020, the total amount of financing fees paid to Gladstone Securities represented approximately 0.12% of the total financings secured since the Financing Arrangement Agreement has been in place.
Series B Dealer-Manager Agreement
On January 10, 2018, we entered into a dealer-manager agreement, which was amended and restated on May 31, 2018 (the “Series B Dealer-Manager Agreement”), with Gladstone Securities, whereby Gladstone Securities served as our exclusive dealer-manager in connection with the offering of our Series B Preferred Stock (as defined in Note 8, “Equity—Series B Preferred Stock”). Pursuant to the Series B Dealer-Manager Agreement, Gladstone Securities provided certain sales, promotional, and marketing services to us in connection with the offering of the Series B Preferred Stock, and we generally paid Gladstone Securities: (i) selling commissions of up to 7.0% of the gross proceeds from sales of Series B Preferred Stock in the offering (the “Series B Selling Commissions”), and (ii) a dealer-manager fee of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from sales of
22

Table of Contents
Series B Preferred Stock in the offering (the “Series B Dealer-Manager Fee”). Gladstone Securities was permitted, in its sole discretion, to remit all or a portion of the Series B Selling Commissions and also to reallow all or a portion of the Series B Dealer-Manager Fees to participating broker-dealers and wholesalers in support of the offering. The terms of the Series B Dealer-Manager Agreement were approved by our board of directors, including all of its independent directors.
In connection with the sales of the Series B Preferred Stock, we paid total Series B Selling Commissions and Series B Dealer-Manager Fees to Gladstone Securities of approximately $0 and $2.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and approximately $1.7 million and $3.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. The majority of these amounts were then remitted by Gladstone Securities to unrelated third-parties involved in the offering, including participating broker-dealers and wholesalers. Series B Selling Commissions and Series B Dealer-Manager Fees paid to Gladstone Securities are netted against the gross proceeds received from sales of the Series B Preferred Stock and are included within Additional paid-in capital on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The offering of our Series B Preferred Stock was completed on March 5, 2020.
Series C Dealer-Manager Agreement
On February 20, 2020, we entered into a dealer-manager agreement (the “Series C Dealer-Manager Agreement”), with Gladstone Securities, whereby Gladstone Securities will serve as our exclusive dealer-manager in connection with the offering of our Series C Preferred Stock (as defined in Note 8, “Equity—Equity Issuances—Series C Preferred Stock”). Pursuant to the Series C Dealer-Manager Agreement, Gladstone Securities provides certain sales, promotional, and marketing services to us in connection with the offering of the Series C Preferred Stock, and we pay Gladstone Securities (i) selling commissions of up to 6.0% of the gross proceeds from sales of Series C Preferred Stock (the “Series C Selling Commissions”) in the Primary Series C Offering (as defined in Note 8, “Equity—Equity Issuances—Series C Preferred Stock”), and (ii) a dealer-manager fee of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from sales of Series C Preferred Stock in the Primary Series C Offering (the “Series C Dealer-Manager Fee”). No Series C Selling Commissions or Series C Dealer-Manager Fee shall be paid with respect to shares of the Series C Preferred Stock sold pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”) for the Series C Preferred Stock. Gladstone Securities may, in its sole discretion, reallow a portion of the Series C Dealer-Manager Fee to participating broker-dealers in support of the Primary Series C Offering. The terms of the Series C Dealer-Manager Agreement were approved by our board of directors, including all of our independent directors.
During both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we paid approximately $286,000 of Series C Selling Commissions and Series C Dealer-Manager Fees to Gladstone Securities in connection with sales of the Series C Preferred Stock. The majority of these amounts were then remitted by Gladstone Securities to unrelated third-parties involved in the offering, including participating broker-dealers and wholesalers. Series C Selling Commissions and Series C Dealer-Manager Fees paid to Gladstone Securities are netted against the gross proceeds received from sales of the Series C Preferred Stock and are included within Additional paid-in capital on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 8. EQUITY
Amendment to Articles of Incorporation
24

Table of Contents
On February 20, 2020, we filed with the Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation an Articles Supplementary (i) setting forth the rights, preferences, and terms of the Series C Preferred Stock and (ii) reclassifying and designating 26,000,000 shares of our authorized and unissued shares of common stock as shares of Series C Preferred Stock. The reclassification decreased the number of shares classified as common stock from approximately 91.5 million shares immediately prior to the reclassification to 65.5 million shares immediately after the reclassification.
Amendment to Operating Partnership Agreement
In connection with the authorization of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Operating Partnership adopted the Fourth Amendment to its First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, including Exhibit SC thereto (collectively, the “Amendment”), as amended from time to time, establishing the rights, privileges, and preferences of 6.00% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units, a newly-designated class of limited partnership interests (the “Series C Preferred OP Units”). The Amendment provides for the Operating Partnership’s establishment and issuance of an equal number of Series C Preferred OP Units as are issued shares of Series C Preferred Stock by the Company in connection with the Series C Offering upon the Company’s contributions to the Operating Partnership of the net proceeds of the Series C Offering. Generally, the Series C Preferred OP Units provided for under the Amendment have preferences, distribution rights and other provisions substantially equivalent to those of the Series C Preferred Stock.
Non-Controlling Interests in Operating Partnership
We consolidate our Operating Partnership, which is a majority-owned partnership. As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, we owned approximately 99.3% and 98.6%, respectively, of the outstanding OP Units. As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, there were 144,151 and 288,303 OP Units held by non-controlling OP Unitholders.
On or after 12 months after becoming a holder of OP Units, each limited partner, other than the Company, has the right, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership, to require the Operating Partnership to redeem all or a portion of such units in exchange for cash or, at the Company’s option, shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. The cash redemption per OP Unit would be based on the market price of our common stock at the time of redemption. A limited partner will not be entitled to exercise redemption rights if the delivery of common stock to the redeeming limited partner would breach restrictions on the ownership of common stock imposed under our charter and other limitations thereof.
We did not issue any new OP Units to non-controlling OP Unitholders during the three or six months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019.
Information related to OP Units tendered for redemption during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 is provided in the table below:

Period |  | OP Units Tendered for Redemption |  | Shares of Common Stock Issued
2020: |  |  |  |
Three months ended June 30, 2020 |  | 144,152 |  | 144,152
Six months ended June 30, 2020 |  | 144,152 |  | 144,152
2019: |  |  |  |
Three months ended June 30, 2019 |  | 0 |  | 0
Six months ended June 30, 2019 |  | 570,879 |  | 570,879

Regardless of the rights described above, the Operating Partnership will not have an obligation to issue cash to a unitholder upon a redemption request if the Company elects to redeem the OP Units for shares of its common stock. When a non-controlling unitholder redeems OP Units and the Company elects to satisfy that redemption through the issuance of common stock, non-controlling interest in the Operating Partnership is reduced, and stockholders’ equity is increased.
The Operating Partnership is required to make distributions on each OP Unit in the same amount as those paid on each share of the Company’s common stock, with the distributions on the OP Units held by the Company being utilized to make distributions to the Company’s common stockholders.
Registration Statement
On March 30, 2017, we filed a universal registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-217042) with the SEC (the “2017 Registration Statement”) to replace our previous registration statement. The 2017 Registration Statement, which was declared
25

Table of Contents
effective by the SEC on April 12, 2017, permitted us to issue up to an aggregate of $300.0 million in securities, consisting of common stock, preferred stock, warrants, debt securities, depository shares, subscription rights, and units, including through separate, concurrent offerings of two or more of such securities. Under the 2017 Registration Statement, we issued a total of 9,495,834 shares of common stock (excluding 1,215,565 shares of common stock issued in exchange for certain OP Units that were tendered for redemption) for gross proceeds of approximately $117.4 million and 6,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $147.5 million.
On March 6, 2020, we filed a universal registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-236943) with the SEC (the “2020 Registration Statement”) to replace the 2017 Registration Statement. The 2020 Registration Statement, which was declared effective by the SEC on April 1, 2020, permits us to issue up to an aggregate of $1.0 billion in securities, consisting of common stock, preferred stock, warrants, debt securities, depository shares, subscription rights, and units, including through separate, concurrent offerings of two or more of such securities. Through June 30, 2020, we had issued a total of 44,129 shares of common stock (excluding 144,152 shares of common stock issued in exchange for certain OP Units that were tendered for redemption) for gross proceeds of approximately $714,000 and 130,702 shares of Series C Preferred Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $3.3 million under the 2020 Registration Statement.
In conjunction with the filing of the 2020 Registration Statement, we wrote off approximately $29,000 of unallocated costs associated with the initial filing of the 2017 Registration Statement. These costs were written off to professional fees, which is included within General and administrative expenses on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income, during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Equity Issuances
Series B Preferred Stock
On May 31, 2018, we filed a prospectus supplement with the SEC for a continuous public offering of up to 6,000,000 shares (the “Series B Offering”) of our 6.00% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) at an offering price of $25.00 per share. The Series B Preferred Stock was offered on a continuous, “reasonable best efforts” basis by Gladstone Securities, the dealer-manager for the Series B Offering. See Note 6, “Related-Party Transactions—Gladstone Securities—Series B Dealer-Manager Agreement,” for a discussion of the fees and commissions to be paid to Gladstone Securities in connection with the Series B Offering.

Table of Contents
The Series B Offering was completed on March 5, 2020 (the “Series B Termination Date”), with the full 6,000,000 allotted shares being sold, and, exclusive of redemptions, resulted in total gross proceeds of approximately $147.5 million and net proceeds, after deducting Series B Selling Commissions, Series B Dealer-Manager Fees, and offering expenses payable by us, of approximately $133.4 million. Excluding Series B Selling Commissions and Series B Dealer-Manager Fees, we incurred approximately $1.6 million of total costs related to the Series B Offering, which were initially recorded as deferred offering costs (included within Other assets, net on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets) and were applied against the gross proceeds received from the offering through additional paid-in capital as shares of the Series B Preferred Stock were sold.
There is currently no public market for shares of the Series B Preferred Stock; however, we intend to apply to list the Series B Preferred Stock on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange within one calendar year after the Series B Termination Date, though there can be no assurance that a listing will be achieved in such timeframe, or at all.
Series C Preferred Stock
On February 20, 2020, we filed a prospectus supplement with the SEC for a continuous public offering of up to 400,000 shares of our newly-designated 6.00% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), on a “reasonable best efforts” basis through Gladstone Securities at an offering price of $25.00 per share, and up to 120,000 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to the DRIP at a price of $22.75 per share. No shares of the Series C Preferred Stock were sold pursuant to the prospectus supplement dated February 20, 2020.
On April 3, 2020, we filed a new prospectus supplement with the SEC for a continuous offering of up to 26,000,000 shares of the Series C Preferred Stock, which superseded and replaced the prospectus supplement dated February 20, 2020, for a continuous public offering (the “Series C Offering”) of up to 26,000,000 shares of the Series C Preferred Stock. The Series C Offering permits us to sell up to 20,000,000 shares (the “Primary Series C Offering”) of our Series C Preferred Stock on a “reasonable best efforts” basis through Gladstone Securities at an offering price of $25.00 per share and up to 6,000,000 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to the DRIP at a price of $22.75 per share. See Note 6, “Related-Party Transactions—Gladstone Securities—Series C Dealer-Manager Agreement,” for a discussion of the commissions and fees to be paid to Gladstone Securities in connection with the Series C Offering.

As of June 30, 2020, excluding Series C Selling Commissions and Series C Dealer-Manager Fees, we have incurred approximately $302,000 of costs related to the Series C Offering, which are initially recorded as deferred offering costs (included within Other assets, net on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets) and are applied against gross proceeds received from the offering through additional paid-in capital as shares of the Series C Preferred Stock are sold. See Note 11, “Subsequent Events—Equity Activity—Series C Preferred Stock,” for sales of Series C Preferred Stock completed subsequent to June 30, 2020.
The Series C Offering will terminate on the date (the “Series C Termination Date”) that is the earlier of either June 1, 2025 (unless terminated earlier or extended by our Board of Directors), or the date on which all 20,000,000 shares in the Primary Series C Offering are sold. There is currently no public market for shares of the Series C Preferred Stock; however, we intend to apply to list the Series C Preferred Stock on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange within one calendar year after the Series C Termination Date, though there can be no assurance that a listing will be achieved in such timeframe, or at all.

(1) | Fixed lease payments include contractual rents under lease agreements with tenants recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease terms and includes the amortization of above-market lease values and lease incentives and the accretion of below-market lease values and other deferred revenue.

(2) | Variable lease payments include participation rents, which are generally based on a percentage of the gross crop revenues earned on the farm, and reimbursements of certain property operating expenses by tenants. Participation rents are generally recognized when all contingencies have been resolved and when actual results become known or estimable, enabling us to estimate and/or measure our share of such gross revenues. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded participation rents of approximately $44,000 and $74,000, respectively, and reimbursements of certain property operating expenses by tenants of approximately $244,000 and $422,000, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded participation rents of approximately $0 and $27,000, respectively, and reimbursements of certain property operating expenses by tenants of approximately $30,000 and $60,000, respectively. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2020, we received a lease termination payment of approximately $3.0 million.

periods. Net loss figures are presented net of non-controlling interests in the earnings per share calculations. The non-controlling limited partners’ outstanding OP Units (which may be redeemed for shares of common stock) have been excluded from the diluted per-share calculation, as there would be no effect on the amounts since the non-controlling OP Unitholders’ share of earnings would also be added back to net loss.

COVID-19
In July 2020, we granted extensions of up to 123 days to two tenants who owed semi-annual rental payments totaling approximately $343,000. These payments were originally scheduled to be paid on July 1, 2020, and the rent deferrals we granted to these tenants extend the new due dates to be on or before November 1, 2020, with all other terms of the existing lease agreements remaining unchanged. Additional time was granted to these tenants due to delays in payments owed to them from their respective processors, which were primarily caused by the strict government-mandated lockdowns in the state of Michigan in response to COVID-19. In addition, we are currently awaiting payment from one other tenant who owed an annual rental payment of approximately $53,000 in July 2020. The delay in this payment is primarily due to a delay in our farmer’s receipt of certain insurance payouts, which are expected to be settled during August 2020, at which time we expect to collect the rent owed to us. Based on the payment histories and current operational statuses of each of the respective tenants, we currently anticipate being able to collect these amounts in full within the aforementioned timeframes. We have not received any other requests from tenants seeking relief as a result of COVID-19, and all other tenants are current in their rental payments to us; however, no assurances can be made that we will not receive additional rent deferral or modification requests in the future.

OVERVIEW
General
We are an externally-managed, agricultural real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that is engaged in the business of owning and leasing farmland. We are not a grower of crops, nor do we typically farm the properties we own. We currently own 115 farms comprised of 89,128 acres located across 10 states in the U.S. We also own several farm-related facilities, such as cooling facilities, packinghouses, processing facilities, and various storage facilities.
We conduct substantially all of our activities through, and all of our properties are held, directly or indirectly, by, Gladstone Land Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). Gladstone Land Corporation controls the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and currently owns, directly or indirectly, 100.0% of the units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”). In addition, we have elected for Gladstone Land Advisers, Inc. (“Land Advisers”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours, to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”).
Gladstone Management Corporation (our “Adviser”) manages our real estate portfolio pursuant to an advisory agreement, and Gladstone Administration, LLC (our “Administrator”), provides administrative services to us pursuant to an administration agreement. Our Adviser and our Administrator collectively employ all of our personnel and directly pay their salaries, benefits, and general expenses.
Impact of COVID-19 on our Business and Operations
The novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic continues to evolve and is currently impacting most countries, communities, and markets. In June 2020, the National Bureau of Economic Research officially declared that the United States economy had fallen into a recession. Global recessionary conditions are currently expected for the remainder of 2020 as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic, although the actual impact and duration are unknown. Much of the United States economy is now in the process of re-opening, but at the same time, the COVID-19 pandemic is intensifying in many areas of the country.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, or prospects will depend on numerous evolving factors that are out of our control and that we are not able to predict at this time, including, but not limited to: (i) the nature, duration, and scope of the pandemic; (ii) governmental, business, and individuals’ actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic; (iii) the impact on economic activity from the pandemic (including the effect on market rental rates and farmland values, if any) and actions taken in response; (iv) the effect on our tenants and their farming operations, including any disruptions that would impact their ability to make rental payments to us (including, but not limited to, labor shortages and supply chain disruptions); and (v) the impact on credit markets and our ability to continue to secure debt financing.

Table of Contents
We do not believe that the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has materially affected our operations or those of our tenants at this point in time. Most of our farmers initially experienced increased sales volumes and higher-than-average prices because the pandemic led the public to stockpile food and other necessities. However, such volumes and prices have recently returned to more normalized levels.
In July 2020, we granted extensions of up to 123 days to two tenants who owed semi-annual rental payments totaling approximately $343,000 (approximately 0.7% of annual portfolio cash rents). These payments were originally scheduled to be paid on July 1, 2020, and the rent deferrals we granted to these tenants extend the new due dates to be on or before November 1, 2020, with all other terms of the existing lease agreements remaining unchanged. Additional time was granted to these tenants due to delays in payments owed to them from their respective processors, which were primarily caused by the strict government-mandated lockdowns in the state of Michigan in response to COVID-19. In addition, we are currently awaiting payment from one other tenant who owed an annual rental payment of approximately $53,000 (approximately 0.1% of annual portfolio cash rents) in July 2020. The delay in this payment is primarily due to a delay in our farmer’s receipt of certain insurance payouts, which are expected to be settled during August 2020, at which time we would expect to collect the rent owed to us. Based on the payment histories and current operational statuses of each of the respective tenants, we currently anticipate being able to collect these rental payments in full within the aforementioned timeframes. We have not received any further requests from tenants seeking relief as a result of COVID-19, and all other tenants are current in their rental payments to us.
While we do not currently anticipate any additional requests from tenants for rent deferrals, if we do receive additional rent relief requests in the future from tenants that have directly been materially and adversely impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as assessed by us, in exchange for granting any such relief, we intend to seek certain favorable lease modification terms in exchange for granting such relief, if any, including, but not limited to, extended lease terms, increased rent, and near-term rent deferral repayments. In addition, if we were to grant any rent deferrals or modifications, we anticipate that any such agreements would include partial payments in exchange for rent deferrals of varying terms, with all deferred amounts to be paid back to us over a specified, short-term period. At this time, we are unable to quantify the success of any tenant’s financial prospects, the amount of any future relief requests from tenants, or the outcome of any future relief package negotiations, if such relief is granted.
In addition, while public equity markets have experienced significant volatility lately, we do not believe there will be a credit freeze in agricultural lending in the near term that will have a material adverse impact on us. Further, we are in compliance with all of our debt covenants, and we believe we currently have adequate liquidity to cover all near-term debt obligations and operating expenses.
We currently expect values of our farmland portfolio to remain stable, and with the exception of the rent deferrals granted to the two aforementioned tenants in July 2020, we expect rental payments to continue to be paid on time for at least the foreseeable future. However, we will continue to monitor the overall situation and our portfolio and may take actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state, or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our personnel, tenants, or stockholders. There can be no assurance that our business and financial and operational results will not be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic or that we will be able to pay distributions to our stockholders in the future at the same rate, or at all.
Portfolio Diversity
Since our initial public offering in January 2013 (the “IPO”), we have expanded our portfolio from 12 farms leased to 7 different, unrelated tenants to a current portfolio of 115 farms leased to 70 different, unrelated third-party tenants who grow over 45 different types of crops on our farms. While our focus remains in farmland suitable for growing fresh produce annual row crops, we have also diversified our portfolio into farmland suitable for other crop types, including permanent crops (e.g., almonds, blueberries, pistachios, and wine grapes) and, to a lesser extent, certain commodity crops (e.g., beans and corn).
The acquisition of additional farms since our IPO has also allowed us to further diversify our portfolio geographically. The following table summarizes the different geographic locations (by state) of our farms owned and with leases in place as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 (dollars in thousands):

(1) | According to the California Chapter of the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers, there are eight distinct growing regions within California; our farms are spread across six of these growing regions.

We believe that our geographic diversity mitigates our exposure to certain economic issues (including those as a result of COVID-19) in any one geographic market or area.
Leases
General
Most of our leases are on a triple-net basis, an arrangement under which, in addition to rent, the tenant is required to pay the related taxes, insurance costs, maintenance, and other operating costs. Our leases generally have original terms ranging from 3 to 10 years for farms growing row crops and 7 to 15 years for farms growing permanent crops (in each case, often with options to extend the lease further). Rent is generally payable to us in advance on either an annual or semi-annual basis, with such rent typically subject to periodic escalation clauses included within the lease. Currently, 89 of our farms are leased on a pure, triple-net basis and 26 farms are leased on a partial-net basis (with us, as landlord, responsible for all or a portion of the related property taxes). In the past, certain of our leases had been on a single-net basis, with us, as landlord, responsible for the related property taxes, as well as certain maintenance, repairs, and insurance costs. Additionally, 29 of our farms are leased under agreements that include a participation rent component based on the gross revenues earned on the respective farms.
Lease Expirations
Agricultural leases are often shorter term in nature (relative to leases of other types of real estate assets), so in any given year, we may have multiple leases up for extension or renewal. The following table summarizes the lease expirations by year for the farms owned and with leases in place as of June 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands):

Year |  | Number of Expiring Leases(1) |  | Expiring Leased Acreage |  | % of Total Acreage |  | Lease Revenues for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 |  | % of Total Lease Revenues

(2) | Includes two leases that were renewed for an additional two years subsequent to June 30, 2020 (see “Recent Developments—Portfolio Activity—Existing Properties—Leasing Activity” below for a summary of this and other recent leasing activities).

(3) | Consists of ancillary leases (e.g., oil, gas, and mineral leases, telecommunications leases, etc.) with varying expirations on certain of our farms. In addition, includes a net amount of approximately $2.8 million of lease revenue recorded as a result of an early lease termination on one of our properties (see below, under “Recent Developments—Portfolio Activity—Existing Properties—Leasing Activity—Lease Termination” for additional information).

Table of Contents
We currently have four agricultural leases scheduled to expire within the next six months (two on farms located in California and two on farms located in Colorado). We are currently in negotiations with the existing tenants on each of the farms, as well as other potential tenants, and we anticipate being able to renew each of the lease at their respective current market rental rates without incurring any downtime on any of the farms. Compared to the respective existing leases, we currently anticipate an increase in rental rates on the California lease renewals, while the Colorado leases are expected to be renewed at lower rental rates. Regarding all upcoming lease expirations, there can be no assurance that we will be able to renew the existing leases or execute new leases at rental rates favorable to us, if at all, or be able to find replacement tenants, if necessary.

Portfolio Activity
Property Acquisitions
Since April 1, 2020, through the date of this filing, we have acquired two farms, which are summarized in the table below (dollars in thousands, except for footnotes):

Property Name |  | Property Location |  | Acquisition Date |  | Total Acreage |  | No. of Farms |  | Primary Crop(s) |  | Lease Term |  | Renewal Options |  | Total Purchase Price |  | Acquisition Costs(1) |  | Annualized Straight-line Rent(2)

(1) | Includes approximately $14,000 of aggregate external legal fees associated with negotiating and originating the leases associated with these acquisitions, which costs were expensed in the period incurred.

(2) | Annualized straight-line rent is based on the minimum cash rental payments guaranteed under the applicable leases, as required under GAAP, and excludes contingent rental payments, such as participation rents.

(3) | The lease provides for an initial term of 14.7 years and includes six tenant termination options throughout the initial term. The lease term stated above represents the term through the first available termination option, and the annualized straight-line rent amount represents the rent guaranteed through the noncancelable term of the lease.

Existing Properties
Property Add-on
In connection with the acquisition of a 366-acre vineyard located in Napa, California (“Withers Road”), on August 28, 2019, we committed to provide up to approximately $4.0 million as additional compensation, contingent upon the County of Napa approving the planting of additional vineyards on up to 47 acres of the property by February 25, 2020 (the “Permit Deadline”). In addition, if approval was obtained, we also committed to contribute up to $40,000 per approved acre for the development of such vineyards. While approval of the additional plantings was not received from the County of Napa by the Permit Deadline, in March 2020, we executed an agreement with the tenant on Withers Road to extend the Permit Deadline until August 24, 2020.
In April 2020, we received notification from the County of Napa informing us that it had approved of additional vineyard plantings on 38.7 acres of the property. As such, in May 2020, we paid additional compensation related to this acquisition of approximately $3.2 million. As a result, and pursuant to a lease amendment, we will earn additional straight-line rental income of approximately $335,000 per year throughout the remaining term of the lease, which expires on December 31, 2029. We will also earn additional rent on any of the aforementioned development costs as they are incurred by us.
Leasing Activity

Financing Activity
Debt Activity
Since April 1, 2020, through the date of this filing, we have incurred the following new, long-term borrowings (dollars in thousands, except for footnotes; for further discussion on certain defined terms used below, refer to Note 4, “Borrowings,” within the accompanying notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements):

Lender |  | Date of Issuance |  | Principal Amount |  | Maturity Date |  | Principal Amortization |  | Stated Interest Rate |  | Expected Effective Interest Rate(1) |  | Interest Rate Terms
Premier Farm Credit, FLCA |  | 5/14/2020 |  | 4,500,000 |  |  | 1/1/2045 |  | 24.6 years |  | 4.00% |  | 3.00% |  | Fixed through December 31, 2029 (variable thereafter)

(1) | On borrowings from the various Farm Credit associations, we receive interest patronage, or refunded interest, which is typically received in the calendar year following the year in which the related interest expense was accrued. The expected effective interest rates reflected in the table above are the interest rates net of expected interest patronage, which is based on either historical patronage actually received (for pre-existing lenders whom we have received interest patronage from) or indications from the respective lenders of estimated patronage to be paid (for new lenders). See Note 4, “Borrowings,” in the accompanying notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on interest patronage received in current and prior years.

Equity Activity
Series C Preferred Stock
On April 3, 2020, we filed a new prospectus supplement (which superseded and replaced a previously-filed prospectus supplement) with the SEC for a continuous public offering (the “Series C Offering”) of up to 26,000,000 shares of our newly-designated 6.00% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”). Under the Series C Offering, we may sell up to 20,000,000 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock on a “reasonable best efforts” basis through Gladstone Securities at an offering price of $25.00 per share (the “Primary Series C Offering”) and up to 6,000,000 additional shares of our Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to our dividend reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”) to those holders of the Series C Preferred Stock who do not elect to opt-out of such plan.
Assuming all shares of the Series C Preferred Stock are sold in both the Primary Series C Offering and through the DRIP, we expect the Series C Offering to result in gross proceeds of up to $636.5 million and net proceeds, after deducting selling commissions, dealer-manager fees, and estimated expenses of the offering payable by us, of up to approximately $591.5 million. We intend to use the net proceeds from the Series C Offering to repay existing indebtedness, to fund future acquisitions, and for other general corporate purposes.
See Note 6, “Related-Party Transactions—Gladstone Securities—Series C Dealer-Manager Agreement,” within the accompanying notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more details on the dealer-manager agreement entered into with Gladstone Securities in connection with the Series C Offering.
The following table summarizes the sales of our Series C Preferred Stock that occurred since April 1, 2020, through the date of this filing (dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts and footnotes):

Number of Shares Sold |  | Weighted-average Sales Price per Share |  | Gross Proceeds |  | Net Proceeds(1)
278,384 |  | $ | 24.93 |  |  | $ | 6,940 |  |  | $ | 6,333 |

(1) | Net of selling commissions and dealer-manager fees borne by us. Aggregate selling commissions and dealer-manager fees paid to Gladstone Securities as a result of these sales was approximately $606,000 (of which approximately $584,000 was remitted by Gladstone Securities to unrelated third-parties involved in the offering, such as participating broker-dealers and wholesalers).

The Primary Series C Offering will terminate on the date (the “Series C Termination Date”) that is the earlier of either June 1, 2025 (unless terminated earlier or extended by our Board of Directors), or the date on which all 20,000,000 shares in the Primary Series C Offering are sold. There is currently no public market for shares of the Series C Preferred Stock; however, we intend to apply to list the Series C Preferred Stock on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange within one calendar year after the Series C Termination Date, though there can be no assurance that a listing will be achieved in such timeframe, or at all.

Common Stock
At-the-Market Program
On May 12, 2020, we terminated the Prior ATM Program (as defined in Note 8, “Equity—Equity Issuances—Common Stock—At-the-Market-Program,” within the accompanying notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements) and entered into new equity distribution agreements with Virtu Americas, LLC, and Ladenburg & Co., Inc. (each a “Sales Agent”), under which we may issue and sell, from time to time and through new Sales Agents, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million (the “Current ATM Program,” and collectively with the Prior ATM Program, the “ATM Programs”). The following table summarizes the activity under the Current ATM Program from April 1, 2020, through the date of this filing (dollars in thousands):

LIBOR Transition
The majority of our debt is at fixed rates, and we currently have very limited exposure to variable-rate debt based upon the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), which is anticipated to be phased out during late 2021. LIBOR is currently expected to transition to a new standard rate, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), which will incorporate certain overnight repo market data collected from multiple data sets. The current intent is to adjust the SOFR to minimize the differences between the interest that a borrower would be paying using LIBOR versus what it will be paying SOFR. We are currently monitoring the transition and cannot yet assess whether SOFR will become a standard rate for variable-rate debt. However, as our lines of credit with MetLife are currently based upon one-month LIBOR, we expect we will need to renegotiate this agreement in the future. Assuming that SOFR replaces LIBOR and is appropriately adjusted, we expect the transition to result in a minimal impact to our overall operations.
Our Adviser and Administrator
We are externally managed pursuant to contractual arrangements with our Adviser and our Administrator (both affiliates of ours), which collectively employ all of our personnel and pay their salaries, benefits, and general expenses directly. The investment advisory agreement with our Adviser that was in effect through March 31, 2017, and the current administration agreement with our Administrator (the “Administration Agreement”) each became effective February 1, 2013. The advisory agreement with our Adviser that was in effect through June 30, 2019 (the “Prior Advisory Agreement”), was amended and restated on July 9, 2019 (as amended, the “2019 Advisory Agreement”), and again amended and restated on January 14, 2020 (as amended, the “2020 Advisory Agreement,” and, together with the Prior Advisory Agreement and the 2019 Advisory Agreement, the “Advisory Agreements”). The Administration Agreement and each of the Advisory Agreements were approved unanimously by our board of directors, including our independent directors.
A summary of the 2019 Advisory Agreement is provided in Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Form 10-K. A summary of the compensation terms for each of the Prior Advisory Agreement, the 2020 Advisory Agreement, and the Administration Agreement is below.
Advisory Agreements
Pursuant to each of the Prior Advisory Agreement (which was in effect from April 1, 2017, through June 30, 2019), the 2019 Advisory Agreement (which was in effect from July 1, 2019, through December 31, 2019), and the 2020 Advisory Agreement (which has been in effect since January 1, 2020), our Adviser is compensated in the form of a base management fee and, each as applicable, an incentive fee, a capital gains fee, and a termination fee. Our Adviser does not charge acquisition or disposition fees when we acquire or dispose of properties, as is common in other externally-managed REITs. The 2019 Advisory Agreement modified the calculation of the base management and incentive fees to exclude preferred equity from such calculations, while the capital gains and termination fees remained unchanged. The 2020 Advisory Agreement revised and replaced the previous calculation of the base management fee, which was previously based on equity, with a calculation based on gross real estate assets (in each case, as further described below), while all other fees remained unchanged. The base management and incentive fees are described below. For information on the capital gains and termination fees, refer to Note 6, “Related-Party Transactions—Our Adviser and Administrator—Advisory Agreements,” within the accompanying notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Base Management Fee
36

Table of Contents
Pursuant to the Prior Advisory Agreement, a base management fee was paid quarterly and was calculated as 2.0% per annum (0.50% per quarter) of the calendar quarter’s total adjusted equity, which was defined as total equity plus total mezzanine equity, if any (each as reported on our balance sheet), adjusted to exclude unrealized gains and losses and certain other one-time events and non-cash items (“Total Adjusted Equity”).
Under the 2020 Advisory Agreement, a base management fee is paid quarterly and is calculated at an annual rate of 0.50% (0.125% per quarter) of the prior calendar quarter’s “Gross Tangible Real Estate,” defined as the gross cost of tangible real estate owned by us (including land and land improvements, irrigation and drainage systems, horticulture, farm-related facilities, and other tangible site improvements), prior to any accumulated depreciation, and as shown on our balance sheet or the notes thereto for the applicable quarter. Relevant to prior agreements with our Adviser, which calculated the management fee based on an equity component, management believes the updated fee calculation pursuant to the 2020 Advisory Agreement provides for a more direct correlation between the fee paid to our Adviser and the assets our Adviser is responsible for managing. The following table compares what the historical base management fee has been on an actual basis for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, versus what it would have been had the 2020 Advisory Agreement been in place during each of those years (dollars in thousands):

|  | For the Years Ended December 31,
|  | 2019 |  | 2018 |  | 2017
Actual gross base management fee(1) |  | $ | 3,623 |  |  | $ | 2,837 |  |  | $ | 2,041 |
Hypothetical gross base management fee(2) |  | 3,150 |  |  | 2,433 |  |  | 2,010 |
Hypothetical increase (decrease) in base management fee |  | $ | (473 | ) |  | $ | (404 | ) |  | $ | (31 | )

(1) | Actual figures calculated pursuant to the agreements with our Adviser in place during the respective periods.

(2) | Calculated as if the 2020 Advisory Agreement had been in place as of January 1, 2017.

In addition, had the 2019 Advisory Agreement been in place during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the hypothetical base management fee would have been approximately $884,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, as compared to the actual base management fee calculated under the 2020 Advisory Agreement of approximately $1.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively. We are unable to project the impact of the 2020 Advisory Agreement on the base management fee going forward and how it might compare to that of the 2019 Advisory Agreement or the Prior Advisory Agreement, as we are unable to estimate the amount of equity to be issued or new tangible assets to be acquired in future periods.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, our Adviser granted us certain non-contractual, unconditional, and irrevocable waivers (as discussed further below, under “—Results of Operations—Operating Expenses—Related-Party Fees”), which were applied as credits against the base management fee for the period. We did not have any such waivers for the three or six months ended June 30, 2020.
Incentive Fee
Pursuant to the Prior Advisory Agreement, an incentive fee was calculated and payable quarterly in arrears if the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO for a particular quarter exceeded a hurdle rate of 1.75% (7.0% annualized) of the prior calendar quarter’s Total Adjusted Equity.
Under the 2020 Advisory Agreement, an incentive fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears if the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO for a particular quarter exceeds a hurdle rate of 1.75% (7.0% annualized) of the prior calendar quarter’s “Total Adjusted Common Equity,” defined as common stockholders’ equity plus non-controlling common interests in the Operating Partnership, if any (each as reported on our balance sheet), adjusted to exclude unrealized gains and losses and certain other one-time events and non-cash items.
For purposes of the calculation of the Incentive Fee, Pre-Incentive Fee FFO was defined in each of the Advisory Agreements as FFO (also as defined in each of the Advisory Agreements) accrued by the Company during the current calendar quarter (prior to any incentive fee calculation for the current calendar quarter), less any dividends paid on preferred stock securities that were not treated as a liability for GAAP purposes. Our Adviser would receive: (i) no Incentive Fee in any calendar quarter in which the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO did not exceed the hurdle rate; (ii) 100% of the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO with respect to that portion of such Pre-Incentive Fee FFO, if any, that exceeded the hurdle rate but was less than 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized); and (iii) 20% of the amount of the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO, if any, that exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized).
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make judgments that are subjective in nature to make certain estimates and assumptions. Application

Table of Contents
of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment regarding the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties, and, as a result, actual results could materially differ from these estimates. A summary of our significant accounting policies is provided in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in our Form 10-K. There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Smaller Reporting Company Status
We currently qualify as a “smaller reporting company” under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, which is defined as a company with a public equity float of less than $250 million or less than $100 million in annual revenues for the previous year and no public float. Companies can also qualify as a smaller reporting company if they have annual revenues of less than $100 million for the previous year and a public float of less than $700 million. As a smaller reporting company, we have reduced disclosure requirements for our public filings, including the reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the purposes of the following discussions on certain operating revenues and expenses:

• | With regard to the comparison between the three months ended June 30, 2020 versus 2019:

◦ | Same-property basis represents farms owned as of March 31, 2019, and were not vacant at any point during either period presented;

◦ | Properties acquired or disposed of are farms that were either acquired or disposed of at any point subsequent to March 31, 2019. From April 1, 2019, through June 30, 2020, we acquired 29 new farms and did not have any farm dispositions; and

◦ | Vacant or self-operated properties represent farms that were either vacant (either wholly or partially) at any point during either period presented or operated by a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours. We did not have any vacant farms during either of the three months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019.

• | With regard to the comparison between the six months ended June 30, 2020 versus 2019:

◦ | Same-property basis represents farms owned as of December 31, 2019, and were not vacant at any point during either period presented;

◦ | Properties acquired or disposed of are farms that were either acquired or disposed of at any point subsequent to December 31, 2018. From January 1, 2019, through June 30, 2020, we acquired 30 new farms and did not have any farm dispositions; and

◦ | Vacant or self-operated properties represent farms that were either vacant (either wholly or partially) at any point during either period presented or operated by a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours. We had two farms that were vacant for a portion of the six months ended June 30, 2019.

(1) | Tenant reimbursements generally represent tenant-reimbursed property operating expenses on certain of our farms, including property taxes, insurance premiums, and other property-related expenses. Corresponding amounts were also recorded as property operating expenses during the respective periods.

Same-property Basis – 2020 compared to 2019
Lease revenue from fixed lease payments increased for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to recent lease renewals and amendments at net higher rental rates, as well as additional rents earned on recent capital improvements completed on certain of our farms. These increases were partially offset by the renewals of certain other leases, in which we decreased the fixed base rent component in exchange for adding a participation rent component into the lease structure.
Lease revenue from participation rents increased for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to the first crop share payment received from a farm on which we recently amended the lease to include a participation rent component.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we received an early lease termination payment from an outgoing tenant on a property of approximately $3.0 million, which we recognized as additional lease revenue upon receipt, less a net balance of approximately $165,000 of aggregate prepaid rent and deferred rent assets balances that were written off against this amount. For further discussion on this lease termination, see above, under “Overview—Recent Developments—Portfolio Activity—Existing Properties—Leasing Activity—Lease Termination.”
Other – 2020 compared to 2019
Lease revenue from properties acquired or disposed of increased for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to additional revenues earned on new farms acquired subsequent to December 31, 2018.
Lease revenue for vacant or self-operated properties increased for the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to additional revenues earned during 2020 on farms that were vacant for a portion of 2019.
The increase in tenant reimbursements for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, was due to additional contractual reimbursements of property taxes and other operating costs. Tenant reimbursements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, also included payments made by a tenant on our behalf (pursuant to the lease agreement) to an unconsolidated entity of ours that conveys water to the respective property.

Table of Contents
Depreciation and amortization expense on a same-property basis decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to the expiration of certain lease intangible amortization periods or tangible depreciation periods subsequent to March 31, 2019, partially offset by additional depreciation on site improvements completed on certain properties subsequent to March 31, 2019. Depreciation and amortization expense on a same-property basis increased for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to accelerated amortization expense recognized due to an early lease termination (see above, under “Overview—Recent Developments—Portfolio Activity—Existing Properties—Leasing Activity—Lease Termination”), as well as additional depreciation on site improvements completed on certain properties subsequent to December 31, 2018, and partially offset by the expiration of certain lease intangible amortization periods subsequent to December 31, 2018. Depreciation and amortization expense on properties acquired or disposed of increased for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily due to the additional depreciation and amortization expense incurred on the new farms acquired subsequent to December 31, 2018. Depreciation and amortization expense on vacant or self-operated properties for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, remained flat when compared to the respective prior-year periods.
Property-operating Expenses
Property operating expenses consist primarily of real estate taxes, repair and maintenance expense, insurance premiums, and other miscellaneous operating expenses paid for certain of our properties. In addition, from approximately July 2018 through June 2019, we incurred additional expenses related to temporary generator rental costs to power newly-drilled wells on one of our properties. During the second half of 2019, these wells were connected to permanent power sources, and the generators were no longer needed. The following table provides a summary of the property-operating expenses recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 (dollars in thousands):

(1) | Represents certain operating expenses (property taxes, insurance premiums, and other property-related expenses) paid by us that, per the respective leases, are required to be reimbursed to us by the tenant. Corresponding amounts were also recorded as lease revenues during the respective periods.

Same-property Basis – 2020 compared to 2019
Property operating expenses decreased for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the decrease was primarily due to the change in lease structure on four of our farms from a single-net basis to a partial-net basis, thus reducing landlord responsibility for certain property operating expenses (specifically, repairs and maintenance expense). For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the decrease was further due to additional costs incurred during the prior-year period for the above-referenced generator rentals and for obtaining certain permits on one of our California properties.

Property operating expenses on properties acquired or disposed of increased for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to additional miscellaneous property operating expenses incurred on certain of the new farms we acquired subsequent to December 31, 2018. Property operating expenses on vacant or self-operated properties remained flat for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior-year period. The increase in tenant-reimbursed property operating expenses for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, was due to additional property taxes paid by us on certain of our properties and miscellaneous operating costs incurred by us in connection with our ownership interest in an unconsolidated entity. In both of these situations, the respective tenants are contractually obligated to reimburse us per the respective leases.
Related-Party Fees
Certain fee calculations changed pursuant to amendments to the agreements with our Adviser that were approved on July 9, 2019, and January 14, 2020. For a discussion of the changes to these fees, see above, under “Overview—Our Adviser and Administrator—Advisory Agreements.” The following table summarizes the base management, incentive, and capital gains fees

The base management fee increased during each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily due to a change in the calculation of the base management fee. For each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the base management fee was calculated as 0.125% (0.5% per annum) of the respective prior calendar quarter’s Gross Tangible Real Estate, which base was increased due to a large volume of acquisitions during 2019, whereas the base management fee for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, was calculated as 0.5% (2.0% per annum) of the Total Adjusted Equity as of the end of the respective prior calendar quarters. See above, under “Overview—Our Adviser and Administrator—Advisory Agreements—Base Management Fee,” for further discussion on the calculation of the base management fee for each period. In addition, our Adviser granted us a non-contractual, unconditional, and irrevocable waiver to be applied against the base management fee during each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.
Our Adviser earned an incentive fee during the six months ended June 30, 2020, due to our Pre-Incentive Fee FFO (as defined in the respective agreement with our Adviser) exceeding the required hurdle rate of the applicable base during the three months ended March 31, 2020. No incentive fee was earned by our Adviser during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Our Adviser did not earn a capital gains fee during either of the three or six months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019, as we did not sell any of our properties during any period presented.
The administration fee paid to our Administrator increased for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily due to hiring additional personnel and us using a higher overall share of our Administrator’s resources in relation to those used by other funds and affiliated companies serviced by our Administrator.
Other Operating Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional fees, director fees, stockholder-related expenses, overhead insurance, acquisition-related costs for investments no longer being pursued, and other miscellaneous expenses. General and administrative expenses increased for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily due to increased stockholder-related expenses.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income, which generally consists of interest patronage received from Farm Credit (as defined in Note 4, “Borrowings,” in the accompanying notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements) and interest earned on short-term investments, increased for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily driven by additional interest patronage received from Farm Credit (due to increased borrowings from Farm Credit). During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded approximately $1.3 million of interest patronage from Farm Credit related to
43

Table of Contents
interest accrued during 2019, compared to approximately $700,000 of interest patronage recorded during the prior-year period. The receipt of interest patronage received from Farm Credit during 2020 resulted in a 20.4% decrease (approximately 98 basis points) to our effective interest rate on our aggregate borrowings from Farm Credit during the year ended December 31, 2019. In addition, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized $45,000 and $155,000 of income as a result of accumulated deferred revenue related to a sale agreement for one of our farms that was terminated.
Interest expense increased for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily due to increased overall borrowings. The weighted-average principal balance of our aggregate borrowings (excluding our Series A Term Preferred Stock) outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, was approximately $483.1 million and $482.2 million, respectively, as compared to approximately $345.0 million and $340.6 million for the respective prior-year periods. Excluding interest patronage received on certain of our Farm Credit borrowings and the impact of debt issuance costs, the overall effective interest rate charged on our aggregate borrowings was 3.98% for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to 3.93% for each of the respective prior-year periods.
During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we paid aggregate distributions on our Series A Term Preferred Stock (which distributions are treated similar to interest expense) of approximately $458,000.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a net loss of approximately $567,000 and $666,000, respectively, primarily due to the disposal of certain irrigation improvements on certain of our farms, partially offset by net gains recognized on the sale of irrigation pivots on one of our farms that were replaced. During the prior-year periods, we recorded a net gain on the sale of unused irrigation pivots, which was offset by a net loss recorded due to the disposal of certain irrigation improvements on one of our farms.
The net property and casualty recovery recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2020, related to insurance recoveries received for certain irrigation improvements that were damaged due to natural disasters during 2019.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized (loss) income in an unconsolidated entity of approximately $(8,000) and $26,000, respectively. We acquired an interest in this entity during the three months ended September 30, 2019.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the aggregate dividends paid on our Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock increased due to additional shares issued and outstanding during each of the periods.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Overview
Our current short- and long-term sources of funds include cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, borrowings (including the undrawn commitments available under the New MetLife Facility), and issuances of additional equity securities. Our current available liquidity is approximately $53.5 million, consisting of approximately $29.3 million in cash on hand and, based on the current level of collateral pledged, approximately $24.2 million of availability under the MetLife Facility (subject to compliance with covenants).
Future Capital Needs
Our short- and long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of making distributions to stockholders (including to non-controlling OP Unitholders, if any) to maintain our qualification as a REIT, funding our general operating costs, making principal and interest payments on outstanding borrowings, making dividend payments on our Series A Term Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, and Series C Preferred Stock, and, as capital is available, funding new farmland and farm-related acquisitions consistent with our investment strategy.
Notwithstanding the current COVID-19 pandemic, we believe that our current and short-term cash resources will be sufficient to fund our distributions to stockholders (including non-controlling OP Unitholders), service our debt, pay dividends on our Series A Term Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, and Series C Preferred Stock, and fund our current operating costs in the near term. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements through various sources of capital, including future equity issuances (including, but not limited to, shares of common stock through our ATM Program, OP Units through our Operating Partnership as consideration for future acquisitions, and shares of our Series C Preferred Stock), long-term mortgage indebtedness and bond issuances, and other secured and unsecured borrowings. While public equity markets have experienced significant volatility lately, based on discussions with our lenders, we do not believe there will be a credit freeze in the near term. We are in compliance with all of our debt covenants under our respective credit facilities, and we believe we currently have adequate liquidity to cover all near-term debt obligations and operating expenses.
44

Table of Contents
We intend to use a significant portion of any current and future available liquidity to purchase additional farms and farm-related facilities. We continue to actively seek and evaluate acquisitions of additional farms and farm-related facilities that satisfy our investment criteria, and despite the current COVID-19 pandemic, our pipeline of potential acquisitions remains healthy. We have several properties under signed purchase and sale agreements or non-binding letters of intent that we hope to consummate over the next six months. We also have many other properties that are in various other stages of our due diligence process. However, all potential acquisitions will be subject to our due diligence investigation of such properties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in identifying or acquiring any properties in the future.
Cash Flow Resources
The following table summarizes total net cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 (dollars in thousands):

| For the Six Months Ended June 30, |  |  |  |
| 2020 |  | 2019 |  | $ Change |  | % Change
Net change in cash from: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Operating activities | $ | 9,937 |  |  | $ | 4,256 |  |  | $ | 5,681 |  |  | 133.5%
Investing activities | (35,100 | ) |  | (54,603 | ) |  | 19,503 |  |  | (35.7)%
Financing activities | 36,254 |  |  | 64,322 |  |  | (28,068 | ) |  | (43.6)%
Net change in Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 11,091 |  |  | $ | 13,975 |  |  | $ | (2,884 | ) |  | (20.6)%

Operating Activities
The majority of cash from operating activities is generated from the rental payments we receive from our tenants, which is first used to fund our property-level operating expenses, with any excess cash being primarily used for principal and interest payments on our borrowings, management fees to our Adviser, administrative fees to our Administrator, and other corporate-level expenses. Cash provided by operating activities increased for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to an early lease termination payment of approximately $3.0 million received from the outgoing tenant on four of our farms in Arizona and additional rental payments received from recent acquisitions, partially offset by increases in the amounts of fees paid to our Adviser and interest payments made during the six months ended June 30, 2020. As of the date of this filing, with the exception of approximately $396,000 of rental payments owed by three tenants that we expect to collect within the next 90 days (which payments were originally due on July 1, 2020; see above under “—Overview—Impact of COVID-19 on our Business and Operations” for further discussion on these rent deferrals and late payments), all of our tenants are current in their rental payments to us, and we have not received any additional requests from tenants seeking rent relief as a result of COVID-19. Further, the aforementioned delayed collections notwithstanding, we currently expect rental payments to continue to be paid on time for at least the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that our business and financial and operational results will not be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic or that we will be able to pay distributions to our stockholders in the future at the same rate, or at all.
Investing Activities
The decrease in cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior-year period, was primarily due to a decrease in aggregate cash paid for acquisitions of new farms and capital improvements on existing farms during the six months ended June 30, 2020, which was approximately $19.0 million less than the prior-year period.
Financing Activities
The decrease in cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to the prior-year period, was primarily due to less net cash proceeds from equity issuances (including the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred Stock, and our common stock) of approximately $20.2 million and a decrease in net borrowings of approximately $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to that of the prior-year period.
Debt Capital
New MetLife Facility
As amended on February 20, 2020, the New MetLife Facility currently consists of the $75.0 million New MetLife Term Note and the $75.0 million MetLife Lines of Credit. We currently have no outstanding balance on the New MetLife Term Note and
45

Table of Contents
$100,000 outstanding under the MetLife Lines of Credit. While $149.9 million of the full commitment amount under the New MetLife Facility remains undrawn, based on the current level of collateral pledged, we currently have approximately $24.2 million of availability under the New MetLife Facility. The draw period for the New MetLife Term Note expires on December 31, 2022, after which time MetLife has the option to be relieved of its obligation to disburse any additional undrawn funds under the New MetLife Term Note.
Farmer Mac Facility
As amended on June 16, 2016, our agreement with Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation (“Farmer Mac”) provided for bond issuances up to an aggregate amount of $125.0 million (the “Farmer Mac Facility”) by December 11, 2018, after which Farmer Mac had the option to be relieved of its obligation to purchase additional bonds under this facility. As of December 11, 2018, we had issued aggregate bonds of approximately $108.7 million under the Farmer Mac Facility, and Farmer Mac is not obligated to purchase the remaining unissued bonds. However, since December 11, 2018, we have refinanced three bonds previously issued under the Farmer Mac Facility for total proceeds of approximately $22.0 million, which equaled the aggregate value of the previously-issued bonds. We expect to continue to be able to refinance existing bonds under the facility as they mature (so long as we remain in compliance with the applicable covenants, as we currently are), though Farmer Mac is under no obligation to do so. We are also continuing discussions with Farmer Mac for other borrowing opportunities, including expanding the size of the existing facility and extending its borrowing period; however, there is no guarantee that we will be able to reach terms favorable to us, if at all.
Farm Credit and Other Lenders
Since September 2014, we have closed on 34 separate loans with 10 different Farm Credit associations (for additional information on these associations, see Note 4, “Borrowings,” within the accompanying notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements). We also currently have borrowing relationships with four other agricultural lenders and are continuously reaching out to other lenders to establish prospective new relationships. While we do not have any additional availability under any of these programs based on the properties currently pledged as collateral, we expect to enter into additional borrowing agreements with existing and new lenders in connection with certain potential new acquisitions in the future. In addition, we currently have one farm appraised at approximately $1.6 million that is unencumbered and eligible to be pledged as collateral.
Equity Capital
The following table provides information on equity sales that have occurred since January 1, 2020 (dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts):

(2) | Excludes share redemptions during the applicable time period.

Our 2020 Registration Statement (as defined in Note 8, “Equity—Registration Statement,” within the accompanying notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements) permits us to issue up to an aggregate of $1.0 billion in securities (including up to $650.0 million reserved for issuance of shares of the Series C Preferred Stock), consisting of common stock, preferred stock, warrants, debt securities, depository shares, subscription rights, and units, including through separate, concurrent offerings of two or more of such securities. To date, we have issued approximately $6.9 million of Series C Preferred Stock and approximately $6.3 million of common stock under the 2020 Registration Statement.
In addition, we have the ability to, and expect to in the future, issue additional OP Units to third parties as consideration in future property acquisitions.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2020, we did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Funds from Operations, Core Funds from Operations, and Adjusted Funds from Operations
46

Table of Contents
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) developed funds from operations (“FFO”) as a relative non-GAAP supplemental measure of operating performance of an equity REIT to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the same basis as determined under GAAP. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property and impairment losses on property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We further present core FFO (“CFFO”) and adjusted FFO (“AFFO”) as additional non-GAAP financial measures of our operational performance, as we believe both CFFO and AFFO improve comparability on a period-over-period basis and are more useful supplemental metrics for investors to use in assessing our operational performance on a more sustainable basis than FFO. We believe that these additional performance metrics, along with the most directly-comparable GAAP measures, provide investors with helpful insight regarding how management measures our ongoing performance, as each of CFFO and AFFO (and their respective per-share amounts) are used by management and our board of directors, as appropriate, in assessing overall performance, as well as in certain decision-making analysis, including, but not limited to, the timing of acquisitions and potential equity raises (and the type of securities to offer in any such equity raises), the determination of any fee credits, and declarations of distributions on our common stock. The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe that net income is the most directly-comparable GAAP measure to each of FFO, CFFO, and AFFO.
Specifically, we believe that FFO is helpful to investors in better understanding our operating performance, primarily because its calculation excludes depreciation and amortization expense on real estate assets, as we believe that GAAP historical cost depreciation of real estate assets is generally not correlated with changes in the value of those assets, particularly with farmland real estate, the value of which does not diminish in a predictable manner over time, as historical cost depreciation implies. Further, we believe that CFFO and AFFO are helpful in understanding our operating performance in that it removes certain items that, by their nature, are not comparable on a period-over-period basis and therefore tend to obscure actual operating performance. In addition, we believe that providing CFFO and AFFO as additional performance metrics allows investors to gauge our overall performance in a manner that is more similar to how our performance is measured by management (including their respective per-share amounts), as well as by analysts and the overall investment community.
We calculate CFFO by adjusting FFO for the following items:

• | Acquisition- and disposition-related expenses. Acquisition- and disposition-related expenses (including due diligence costs on acquisitions not consummated and certain auditing and accounting fees incurred that were directly related to completed acquisitions or dispositions) are incurred for investment purposes and do not correlate with the ongoing operations of our existing portfolio. Further, certain auditing and accounting fees incurred vary depending on the number and complexity of acquisitions or dispositions completed during the period. Due to the inconsistency in which these costs are incurred and how they have historically been treated for accounting purposes, we believe the exclusion of these expenses improves comparability of our operating results on a period-to-period basis.

Other adjustments. We will adjust for certain non-recurring charges and receipts and will explain such adjustments accordingly. We believe the exclusion of such non-recurring amounts improves comparability of our operating results on a period-to-period basis and will apply consistent definitions of CFFO and AFFO for all prior-year periods presented to provide consistency and better comparability.
Further, we calculate AFFO by adjusting CFFO for the following items:

• | Rent adjustments. This adjustment removes the effects of straight-lining rental income, as well as the amortization related to above-market lease values and lease incentives and accretion related to below-market lease values, other deferred revenue, and tenant improvements, resulting in rental income reflected on a modified accrual cash basis. In addition to these adjustments, we also modify the calculation of cash rents within our definition of AFFO to provide greater consistency and comparability due to the period-to-period volatility in which cash rents are received. To coincide with our tenants’ harvest seasons, our leases typically provide for cash rents to be paid at various points throughout the lease year, usually annually or semi-annually. As a result, cash rents received during a particular period may not necessarily be comparable to other periods or represent the cash rents indicative of a given lease year. Therefore, we further adjust AFFO to normalize the cash rent received pertaining to a lease year over that respective lease year on a straight-line basis, resulting in cash rent being recognized ratably over the period in which the cash rent is earned.

• | Amortization of debt issuance costs. The amortization of costs incurred to obtain financing is excluded from AFFO, as it is a non-cash expense item that is not directly related to the operating performance of our properties.

We believe the foregoing adjustments aid our investors’ understanding of our ongoing operational performance.

Table of Contents
FFO, CFFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, which, unlike FFO, CFFO, and AFFO, generally reflects all cash effects of transactions and other events in the determination of net income, and should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance or to cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions. Comparisons of FFO, CFFO, and AFFO, using the NAREIT definition for
FFO and the definitions above for CFFO and AFFO, to similarly-titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in the definitions used by such REITs.
Diluted funds from operations (“Diluted FFO”), diluted core funds from operations (“Diluted CFFO”), and diluted adjusted funds from operations (“Diluted AFFO”) per share are FFO, CFFO, and AFFO, respectively, divided by the weighted-average number of total shares (including shares of our common stock and OP Units held by non-controlling limited partners) outstanding on a fully-diluted basis during a period. We believe that diluted earnings per share is the most directly-comparable GAAP measure to each of Diluted FFO, CFFO, and AFFO per share. Because many REITs provide Diluted FFO, CFFO, and AFFO per share information to the investment community, we believe these are useful supplemental measures when comparing us to other REITs.
We believe that FFO, CFFO, and AFFO and Diluted FFO, CFFO, and AFFO per share are useful to investors because they provide investors with a further context for evaluating our FFO, CFFO, and AFFO results in the same manner that investors use net income and EPS in evaluating net income.
The following table provides a reconciliation of our FFO, CFFO, and AFFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 to the most directly-comparable GAAP measure, net income, and a computation of diluted FFO, CFFO, and AFFO per share, using the weighted-average number of total shares (including shares of our common stock and OP Units held by non-controlling OP Unitholders) outstanding during the respective periods (dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts):

Net Asset Value
48

Table of Contents
Real estate companies are required to record real estate using the historical cost basis of the real estate, adjusted for accumulated depreciation and amortization, and, as a result, the carrying value of the real estate does not typically change as the fair value of the assets change. Thus, one challenge is determining the fair value of the real estate in order to allow stockholders to see the value of the real estate increase or decrease over time, which we believe is useful to our investors.
Determination of Fair Value
Our Board of Directors reviews and approves the valuations of our properties pursuant to a valuation policy approved by our Board of Directors (the “Valuation Policy”). Such review and approval occurs in three phases: (i) prior to its quarterly meetings, the Board of Directors receives written valuation recommendations and supporting materials that are provided by professionals of the Adviser and Administrator, with oversight and direction from the chief valuation officer, who is also employed by the Administrator (collectively, the “Valuation Team”); (ii) the valuation committee of the Board of Directors (the “Valuation Committee”), which is comprised entirely of independent directors, meets to review the valuation recommendations and supporting materials; and (iii) after the Valuation Committee concludes its meeting, it and the chief valuation officer present the Valuation Committee’s findings to the entire Board of Directors so that the full Board of Directors may review and approve the fair values of our properties in accordance with the Valuation Policy. Further, on a quarterly basis, the Board of Directors reviews the Valuation Policy to determine if changes thereto are advisable and also reviews whether the Valuation Team has applied the Valuation Policy consistently.
Per the Valuation Policy, our valuations are generally derived based on the following:

• | For properties acquired within 12 months prior to the date of valuation, the purchase price of the property will generally be used as the current fair value unless overriding factors apply. In situations where OP Units are issued as partial or whole consideration in connection with the acquisition of a property, the fair value of the property will generally be the lower of: (i) the agreed-upon purchase price between the seller and the buyer (as shown in the purchase and sale agreement or contribution agreement and using the agreed-upon pricing of the OP Units, if applicable), or (ii) the value as determined by an independent, third-party appraiser.

• | For real estate we acquired more than one year prior to the date of valuation, we determine the fair value either by relying on estimates provided by independent, third-party appraisers or through an internal valuation process. In addition, if significant capital improvements take place on a property, we will typically have those properties reappraised upon completion of the project by an independent, third-party appraiser. In any case, we intend to have each property valued by an independent, third-party appraiser via a full appraisal at least once every three years, with interim values generally being determined by either: (i) a restricted appraisal (a “desk appraisal”) performed by an independent, third-party appraiser, or (ii) our internal valuation process.

Various methodologies were used, both by the appraisers and in our internal valuations, to determine the fair value of our real estate, including the sales comparison, income capitalization (or a discounted cash flow analysis), and cost approaches of valuation. In performing their analyses, the appraisers typically (i) conducted site visits to the properties (where full appraisals were performed), (ii) discussed each property with our Adviser and reviewed property-level information, including, but not limited to, property operating data, prior appraisals (as available), existing lease agreements, farm acreage, location, access to water and water rights, potential for future development, and other property-level information, and (iii) reviewed information from a variety of sources about regional market conditions applicable to each of our properties, including, but not limited to, recent sale prices of comparable farmland, market rents for similar farmland, estimated marketing and exposure time, market capitalization rates, and the current economic environment, among others. In performing our internal valuations, we will consider the most recent appraisal available and use similar methodologies in determining an updated fair value. We will also obtain updated market data related to the property, such as updated sales and market rent comparisons and market capitalization rates, and perform an updated assessment of the tenants’ credit risk profiles, among others. Sources of this data may come from market inputs from recent acquisitions of our own portfolio of real estate, recent appraisals of properties we own that are similar in nature and in the same region (as applicable) as the property being valued, market conditions and trends we observe in our due diligence process, and conversations with appraisers, brokers, and farmers.
A breakdown of the methodologies used to value our properties and the aggregate value as of June 30, 2020, determined by each method is shown in the table below (dollars in thousands, except in footnotes):

Valuation Method |  | Number of Farms |  | Total Acres |  | Farm Acres |  | Net Cost Basis(1) |  | Current Fair Value |  | % of Total Fair Value
Purchase Price |  | 17 |  | 13,242 |  | 12,221 |  | $ | 234,543 |  |  | $ | 233,412 |  |  | 25.6%

Total |  | 115 |  | 89,128 |  | 72,290 |  | $ | 822,523 |  |  | $ | 911,770 |  |  | 100.0%

(1) | Consists of the initial acquisition price (including the costs allocated to both tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed), plus subsequent improvements and other capitalized costs paid for by us that were associated with the properties, and adjusted for accumulated depreciation and amortization.

(2) | Appraisals performed between September 2019 and June 2020.

Some of the significant assumptions used by appraisers and the Valuation Team in valuing our portfolio as of June 30, 2020, include land values per farmable acre, market rental rates per farmable acre and the resulting net operating income (“NOI”) at the property level, and capitalization rates, among others. These assumptions were applied on a farm-by-farm basis and were selected based on several factors, including comparable land sales, surveys of both existing and current market rates, discussions with other brokers and farmers, soil quality, size, location, and other factors deemed appropriate. A summary of these significant assumptions is provided in the following table:

|  | Range (Low - High) |  | Weighted Average
Land Value (per farmable acre) |  | $678 – $87,280 |  | $ | 30,215 |
Market NOI (per farmable acre) |  | $421 – $3,759 |  | $ | 2,198 |
Market Capitalization Rate |  | 3.68% – 10.06% |  | 4.34%

Note: Figures in the table above apply only to the farmland portion of our portfolio and exclude assumptions made relating to farm-related facilities (e.g., cooling facilities), and other structures on our properties (e.g., residential housing), as their aggregate value was considered to be insignificant in relation to that of the farmland.
Our Valuation Team reviews the appraisals, including the significant assumptions and inputs used in determining the appraised values, and considers any developments that may have occurred since the time the appraisals were performed. Developments considered that may have an impact on the fair value of our real estate include, but are not limited to, changes in tenant credit profiles, changes in lease terms (such as expirations and notices of non-renewals or to vacate), and potential asset sales (particularly those at prices different from the appraised values of our properties).
Management believes that the purchase prices of the farms acquired during the previous 12 months and the most recent appraisals available for the farms acquired prior to the previous 12 months fairly represent the current market values of the properties as of June 30, 2020, and, accordingly, did not make any adjustment to these values.
A quarterly roll-forward of the change in our portfolio value for the three months ended June 30, 2020, from the prior value basis as of June 30, 2019, is provided in the table below (dollars in thousands):

Total portfolio fair value as of March 31, 2020 |  | $ | 891,555 |
Plus: Acquisition of two new farms during the three months ended June 30, 2020(1) |  | 20,902 |
Plus net value depreciation during the three months ended June 30, 2020: |  |
44 farms valued via third-party appraisals | $ | (687 | ) |
Total net depreciation for the three months ended June 30, 2020 |  | (687 | )
Total portfolio fair value as of June 30, 2020 |  | $ | 911,770 |

(1) | Includes a $3.2 million add-on to our Withers Road property.

Management also determined fair values of all long-term borrowings and preferred stock. Using a discounted cash flow analysis, management determined that the fair value of all long-term encumbrances on our properties as of June 30, 2020, was approximately $496.5 million, as compared to a carrying value (excluding unamortized related debt issuance costs) of approximately $494.7 million. In addition, using the closing stock price as of June 30, 2020, the fair value of the Series A Term Preferred Stock was determined to be approximately $30.2 million, as compared to a carrying value (excluding unamortized related issuance costs) of approximately $28.8 million. Finally, pursuant to Financial Industry Regulatory Authority Rule 2310(b)(5), with the assistance of a third-party valuation expert, we determined the estimated value of our Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock to each be $25.00 per share as of June 30, 2020 (see Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 10-Q).
Calculation of Estimated Net Asset Value
To provide our stockholders with an estimate of the fair value of our real estate assets, we intend to estimate the fair value of our farms and farm-related properties and provide an estimated net asset value (“NAV”) on a quarterly basis. NAV is a non-GAAP, supplemental measure of financial position of an equity REIT and is calculated as total equity, adjusted for the increase or decrease in fair value of our real estate assets and long-term borrowings (including any preferred stock required to be treated as debt for GAAP purposes) relative to their respective costs bases. Further, we calculate NAV per common share by dividing NAV by our total common shares outstanding (consisting of our common stock and OP Units held by non-controlling limited partners).

The fair values presented above and their usage in the calculation of net asset value per share presented below have been prepared by and is the responsibility of management. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has neither examined, compiled, nor performed any procedures with respect to the fair values or the calculation of net asset value per common share, which utilizes information that is not disclosed within the financial statements, and, accordingly, does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.
As of June 30, 2020, we estimate the NAV per common share to be $11.06. A reconciliation of NAV to total equity, which we believe is the most directly-comparable GAAP measure, is provided below (dollars in thousands, except per-share data):

Total equity per balance sheet |  |  | $ | 306,383 |

Estimated NAV available to common stockholders and non-controlling OP Unitholders |  |  | $ | 239,744 |
Total common shares and OP Units outstanding(6) |  |  | 21,678,890 |
Estimated NAV per common share and OP Unit |  |  | $ | 11.06 |

(1) | Per Net Cost Basis as presented in the table above.

(2) | Per Current Fair Value as presented in the table above.

(3) | Includes the principal balances outstanding of all long-term borrowings (consisting of notes and bonds payable) and the Series A Term Preferred Stock.

(4) | Long-term notes and bonds payable were valued using a discounted cash flow model. The Series A Term Preferred Stock was valued based on its closing stock price as of June 30, 2020.

(5) | Valued at the securities’ respective liquidation values, as discussed above.

(6) | Includes 21,534,739 shares of common stock and 144,151 OP Units held by non-controlling OP Unitholders.

A quarterly roll-forward in the estimated NAV per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2020, is provided below:

Estimated NAV per common share and non-controlling OP Unit as of March 31, 2020 |  |  | $ | 11.46 |
Less net loss available to common stockholders and non-controlling OP Unitholders |  |  | (0.10 | )
Plus net change in valuations: |  |  |
Net change in unrealized fair value of farmland portfolio(1) | $ | (0.04 | ) |  |
Net change in unrealized fair value of long-term indebtedness | (0.12 | ) |  |
Net change in valuations |  |  | (0.16 | )
Less distributions on common stock and non-controlling OP Units |  |  | (0.13 | )
Less net dilutive effect of equity issuances |  |  | (0.01 | )
Estimated NAV per common share and non-controlling OP Unit as of June 30, 2020 |  |  | $ | 11.06 |

(1) | The net change in unrealized fair value of our farmland portfolio consists of three components: (i) a decrease of $0.03 per share due to the net depreciation in value of the farms that were valued during the three months ended June 30, 2020, (ii) an increase of $0.18 per share due to the aggregate depreciation and amortization expense recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2020, and (iii) a decrease of $0.19 per share due to capital improvements made on certain farms that have not yet been considered in the determination of the respective farms’ estimated fair values.

Comparison of estimated NAV and estimated NAV per common share, using the definitions above, to similarly-titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in the calculation or application of the definition of NAV used by such REITs. In addition, the trading price of our common shares may differ significantly from our most recent estimated NAV per common share calculation. For example, while we estimated our NAV per common share to be $11.06 as of June 30, 2020, based on the calculation above, the closing price of our common stock on June 30, 2020, was $15.86 per share.
The determination of estimated NAV is subjective and involves a number of assumptions, judgments, and estimates, and minor adjustments to these assumptions, judgments, or estimates may have a material impact on our overall portfolio valuation. In addition, many of the assumptions used are sensitive to market conditions and can change frequently. Changes in the market

environment and other events that may occur during our ownership of these properties may cause the values reported above to vary from the actual fair value that may be obtained in the open market. Further, while management believes the values presented reflect current market conditions, the ultimate amount realized on any asset will be based on the timing of such dispositions and the then-current market conditions. There can be no assurance that the ultimate realized value upon disposition of an asset will approximate the estimated fair value above.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of June 30, 2020, our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2020, in providing a reasonable level of assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms, including providing a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of necessarily achieving the desired control objectives, and management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. | Legal Proceedings

We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, are any such material legal proceedings threatened against us.

Item 1A. | Risk Factors

Our business is subject to certain risks and events that, if they occur, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and the trading price of our securities. For a discussion of these risks, please refer to the risk factor below and the section captioned, “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The risks described below and in our Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results in the future.
Our business may be adversely affected by the ongoing coronavirus outbreak.
As of the date of this filing, the outbreak of a novel and highly contagious form of coronavirus (“COVID-19”), which the World Health Organization has declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern is continuing. The outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in numerous deaths, adversely impacted global commercial activity, and contributed to significant volatility in certain equity and debt markets. The global impact of the outbreak continues to evolve, and many countries reacted by instituting quarantines, prohibitions on travel, and the closure of offices, businesses, schools, retail stores, and other public venues. Businesses also implemented similar precautionary measures. In April 2020, the national unemployment rate reached its highest level since the Great Depression, and in June 2020, the National Bureau of Economic Research officially declared that the United States had fallen into a recession. The duration and severity of this economic slowdown remains uncertain. Much of the United States economy is now in the process of reopening, but, at the same time, the pandemic is intensifying in many areas of the country. Accordingly, some jurisdictions have rolled back reopening plans, and more widespread reinstatement of directives and mandates requiring businesses to again curtail or cease normal operations remains a possibility. Such measures, as well as the general uncertainty surrounding the dangers and impact of COVID-19, continue to create significant disruption in supply chains and economic activity and have had and are likely to continue to have a particularly adverse impact on transportation, hospitality, tourism, entertainment, and other industries. As COVID-19 continues to spread, the potential impacts are increasingly uncertain and difficult to assess.
Any public health emergency, including any outbreak of COVID-19, SARS, H1N1/09 flu, avian flu, other coronavirus, Ebola or other existing or new epidemic diseases, or the threat thereof, could have a significant adverse impact on the Company and could adversely affect the Company's ability to fulfill its investment objectives.
The extent of the impact of any public health emergency on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on many factors, including the duration and scope of such public health emergency, the extent of any related travel advisories and restrictions implemented, the impact of such public health emergencies on overall supply and demand, goods and services, investor liquidity, consumer confidence and levels of economic activity, and the extent of its disruption to important global, regional, and local supply chains and economic markets, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. The effects of a public health emergency may disrupt the operations of our tenant-farmers and pose the risk that they may be prevented from conducting normal business activities for an unknown period of time, including shutdowns that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities. We cannot accurately estimate the impact that a public health threat could have on our farmland portfolio, but it could disrupt the businesses of our tenant-farmers and impact their ability to make lease payments to us, including under modified lease terms allowing for deferred rent, thereby decreasing the overall value of our leasehold interests in the properties, which could adversely impact our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
Further, the operations of the Company may be significantly impacted, or even temporarily or permanently halted, as a result of government shelter-in-place measures, voluntary and precautionary restrictions on travel or meetings, paused or reversed reopening orders, and other factors related to a public health emergency, including its potential adverse impact on the health of the Adviser’s and Administrator’s personnel. As a result, there is a risk that this continuing crisis could adversely impact the Company’s ability to source, manage, and divest investments and the Company’s ability to achieve its investment objectives, all of which could result in significant losses to the Company and could impact the Company’s ability to make interest and distribution payments to lenders and stockholders, respectively, including their respective amounts.
