Total amortization related to above-market lease values was approximately $19,000 and $58,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and approximately $19,000 and $58,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. Total accretion related to below-market lease values was approximately $34,000 and $101,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and approximately $203,000 and $392,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. Total net (amortization) accretion related to lease incentives and other deferred revenue, net was approximately $(3.0) million and $(9.1) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and approximately $456,000 and $(201,000) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. Acquisitions We did not acquire any new farms during either of the three or nine months ended September 30, 2025 or 2024. Property Sales 2025 Property Sales In January 2025, we completed the sale of five farms in Florida totaling 5,630 gross acres for an aggregate sales price of approximately $52.5 million. Including closing costs, we recognized a net gain on the sale of approximately $14.1 million. In February 2025, we completed the sale of two farms in Nebraska totaling 2,559 gross acres for an aggregate sales price of $12.0 million. Including closing costs, we recognized an aggregate net gain on these sales of approximately $1.6 million. In August 2025, we completed the sale of two farms in Florida totaling 2,678 gross acres for an aggregate sales price of $21.5 million. Including closing costs, we recognized an aggregate net gain on these sales of approximately $6.0 million. 2024 Property Sales In January 2024, we completed the sale of a 3,748-acre farm in Florida for approximately $65.7 million. Including closing costs, we recognized a net gain on the sale of approximately $10.4 million. Real Estate Held for Sale As of December 31, 2024, we had three properties (consisting of seven farms) that were classified as held for sale. Each of these properties were sold during the three months ended March 31, 2025, as noted above. Investments in Unconsolidated Entities In connection with the acquisition of certain farmland located in Fresno County, California, we also acquired partial ownership of a related limited liability company (the “Fresno LLC”), the sole purpose of which is to own and maintain a pipeline conveying water to our and other neighboring properties. In addition, in connection with the acquisition of certain farmland located in Umatilla County, Oregon, we also acquired partial ownership of a related limited liability company (the “Umatilla LLC”), the sole purpose of which is to own and maintain an irrigation system providing water to our and other neighboring properties. As of September 30, 2025, our aggregate ownership interest in the Fresno LLC and the Umatilla LLC was 50.0% and 20.5%, respectively. As our investments in the Fresno LLC and Umatilla LLC are both deemed to constitute “significant influence,” we have accounted for these investments under the equity method. We recorded an aggregate gain (loss) of approximately $58,000 and $(128,000) during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and approximately $28,000 and $(143,000) during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively (included in Loss from investments in unconsolidated entities on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income), which represents our pro-rata share of the aggregate gain (loss) recognized by the Fresno LLC and Umatilla LLC. As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, our combined ownership interest in the Fresno LLC and the Umatilla LLC had an aggregate carrying value of approximately $5.6 million and $5.7 million, respectively, and is included within Other assets, net on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Portfolio Concentrations Credit Risk As of September 30, 2025, our farms were leased to various different, unrelated third-party tenants, with certain tenants leasing more than one farm. One unrelated third-party tenant (“Tenant A”) leases six of our farms under leases expiring in 2030 or later, and another third-party tenant (“Tenant B”) leases two of our farms under leases expiring in 2027. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, aggregate lease revenue attributable to Tenant A and Tenant B accounted for approximately $5.6 million (12.0%) and $4.7 million (10.1%), respectively, of the total lease revenue. If either Tenant A or Tenant B fails to make rental payments or elects to terminate their leases prior to their expirations (and we cannot re-lease the farms on satisfactory terms), there could be a material adverse effect on our financial performance. No other individual tenant represented greater than 10% of the total lease revenue recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Geographic Risk Farms located in California and Florida accounted for approximately $28.8 million (61.5%) and $6.8 million (14.6%), respectively, of the total lease revenue recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. We seek to continue to further diversify geographically, as may be desirable or feasible. If an unexpected natural disaster (such as an earthquake, wildfire, flood, or hurricane) occurs or climate change impacts the regions where our properties are located, there could be a material adverse effect on our financial performance and ability to continue our operations. To date, none of our farms have been materially impacted by natural disasters, including the January 2025 wildfires that occurred in southern California. See “—Southeastern U.S. Hurricanes” below for a discussion on damage caused on certain of our farms by the hurricanes that occurred in the Southeastern U.S. in September and October 2024. Besides California and Florida, no other single state accounted for more than 10.0% of the total lease revenue recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Southeastern U.S. Hurricanes In September and October 2024, Hurricanes Helene and Milton caused widespread destruction across many states in the Southeastern U.S., including areas where several of our farms are located. As a result of Hurricane Helene in September 2024, one of our farms in Georgia suffered damage to certain permanent plantings on the farm. At the time, we estimated the carrying value of such plantings to be approximately $275,000, and during the three months ended September 30, 2024, we wrote down the carrying value of these plantings and also recorded a corresponding property and casualty loss. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, after further inspection of the property, it was determined that the damage was not as extensive as originally estimated, and we recorded an adjustment to our original estimate, which is included within Property and casualty (loss) recovery, net on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Certain of our other farms in the region suffered minor damage as a result of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, but none of our other farms were materially impacted. Impairment 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. If this analysis indicates that the carrying value may not be recoverable, an impairment loss is recorded in earnings equal to the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, as a result of shortening our assumed holding period, we recognized an impairment charge of approximately $316,000 on one property (encompassing two farms) located in St. Lucie County, Florida, due to the estimated fair value being lower than the carrying value. Our estimate of fair value was determined based on the expected sales price per an agreement entered into subsequent to September 30, 2025. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized an aggregate impairment charge of approximately $2.1 million on portions of four properties (encompassing a total of 11 farms) located in Allegan and Van Buren, Michigan, due to the estimated fair values being lower than the respective carrying values. INVESTMENTS IN WATER ASSETS Semitropic Water Storage District Banked Water In connection with the acquisition of certain farmland located in Kern County, California, in 2021, we also acquired three contracts providing the right to purchase an aggregate of 45,000 acre-feet of banked water held by Semitropic Water Storage District (“SWSD”), a water storage district located in Kern County, California, at a fixed price. At the time of acquisition, we allocated approximately $31.3 million of aggregate value to these contracts. Subsequently in 2021, we executed all three contracts and purchased the full 45,000 acre-feet of banked water for an additional aggregate cost of approximately $2.8 million. In addition, since the initial acquisition, additional contracts to purchase banked water held by SWSD were conveyed to us by one of our tenants as partial consideration for rent payments owed. The following table summarizes the total acre-feet of banked water obtained through exercising these contracts as of September 30, 2025 (dollars in thousands):
Period Acquired |  | Acre-feet of Banked Water Available to Purchase per Contract |  | Acre-feet of Banked Water Purchased(1) |  | Value Attributed to Contract(2) |  | Cost to Exercise Contract |  | Total Carrying Value of Banked Water Purchased
Three months ended December 31, 2023 |  | 1,003 |  | 1,003 |  | $ | 401 |  |  | $ | 62 |  |  | $ | 463 |
Three months ended March 31, 2024 |  | 2,306 |  | 2,306 |  | 923 |  |  | 141 |  |  | 1,064 |
Total |  | 3,309 |  | 3,309 |  | $ | 1,324 |  |  | $ | 203 |  |  | $ | 1,527 |
(1)All contracts to purchase additional banked water were exercised in the same quarter in which the respective contract was conveyed to us. (2)Represents noncash income received during the respective periods. The straight-line impact of these receipts is included within Lease revenue, net on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. All banked water acquired was recognized at cost, including the subsequent cost to execute the contracts and any administrative fees necessary to transfer the water to our banked water account. As of September 30, 2025, the 48,309 acre-feet of banked water held by SWSD was recognized as a long-term water asset and had an aggregate carrying value of approximately $35.5 million. Westlands Water District Groundwater Credits In addition, from May 2023 through March 2024, we elected to participate in a groundwater recharge program established by Westlands Water District (“WWD”), a water district located in Fresno County, California. Under the program, WWD paid for surplus surface water to be delivered to individual landowners’ properties with district-approved groundwater recharge facilities, also known as “water banks.” The landowner was allowed to keep 50% of the net amount of groundwater credits generated under the program (after allowing for certain leave-behind and evaporative losses), and the remaining 50% was used to recharge the aquifer and retained by WWD. Delivery of water under this program was subject to surplus water availability at WWD’s discretion. WWD terminated the program for the 2024 water year effective March 5, 2024. As a result of the program, we recognized 2,660 acre-feet of water credits, which represents 50% of the total net water credits generated and confirmed by WWD under the program. As a result of being granted these water credits in exchange for transferring and storing this surplus water on behalf of WWD, we recognized approximately $0 and $453,000 of non-cash revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, which represents the estimated fair value of the water credits obtained during the periods. As of September 30, 2025, these water credits were recognized as a long-term water asset and had an aggregate carrying value of approximately $746,000. Other Groundwater Credits Since 2023, we have also entered into various other agreements with third parties, including local water districts and private individuals, to (i) purchase water directly, (ii) acquire portions of other water districts’ surface water allocations in future years in which allocations are granted, or (iii) store surface water on behalf of others in our groundwater recharge facilities in exchange for a portion of the net groundwater credits generated and recognized by the respective water district. Through September 30, 2025, we have obtained 4,563 acre-feet of water credits under these agreements, which have been recognized as a long-term water asset with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $884,000. During each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recognized approximately $48,000 of revenue, representing the estimated fair value of water credits received in exchange for storing water on behalf of third parties (included within Other operating revenue on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income). Total Long-term Water Assets As of September 30, 2025, we owned a total of 55,532 acre-feet of long-term water assets, and our investments in these assets had an aggregate carrying value of approximately $37.2 million and are included within Investments in water assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, we have invested approximately $1.5 million to construct and maintain groundwater recharge facilities on two of our farms, which is included within Real estate, at cost on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Through September 30, 2025, we have also invested an additional $4.4 million in the aggregate in connection with certain agreements that are expected to result in additional groundwater credits in the future; however, the amount and timing of these credits, if any, is currently unknown and is dependent upon and subject to the recognition of such credits by the respective water districts, in their sole discretion. Such costs are held in a deferred asset account (also included within Investments in water assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets) until the related net water credits become estimable and are recognized by the respective water district, at which time the costs would be considered a long-term water asset within Investments in water assets. Impairment We evaluate our entire portfolio each quarter for any impairment indicators and perform an impairment analysis on those select water assets that have an indication of impairment. If this analysis indicates that the carrying value may not be recoverable, an impairment loss is recorded in earnings equal to the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset. As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, we concluded that none of our water assets were impaired.
