Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is a discussion and analysis of our financial condition and our historical results of operations. The following should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and accompanying notes included herein and with our 2025 Annual Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those projected, forecasted, or expected in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. See “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this Quarterly Report and “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our 2025 Annual Report.

Overview

As of March 31, 2026, our Portfolio consisted primarily of debt and equity investments in the single-family rental, self-storage, office, hospitality, life science and multifamily sectors. The Company has two reportable segments, Diversified and Hospitality. Diversified represents the Company's primary reportable segment and represents a significant majority of the Company's consolidated portfolio. The Diversified reportable segment is the legacy reportable segment and is focused on investing in various commercial real estate property types and across the capital structure, including but not limited to, equity, mortgage, debt, mezzanine debt and preferred equity. The Hospitality segment is focused on operating and renovating its U.S. located hospitality assets that meet its investment objective and criteria. Substantially all of our business is conducted through the OP. The OP GP is the sole general partner of the OP and is owned 100% by the Company. As of March 31, 2026, there were 44,536,894.47 common units of the OP outstanding, of which 99.96% were owned by the Company.

As a diversified REIT, the Company’s primary investment objective is to provide both current income and capital appreciation. Target underlying property types primarily include, but are not limited to, single-family rentals, multifamily, self-storage, life science, office, industrial, hospitality, net lease, retail and small-bay industrial. The Company may, to a limited extent, hold, acquire or transact in certain non-real estate securities. We are externally managed by the Adviser through the Advisory Agreement, by and among the Company and the Adviser. The Advisory Agreement was dated July 1, 2022, and amended on October 25, 2022, April 11, 2023, July 22, 2024, and September 19, 2025 for a term that will expire on July 1, 2026 and successive one-year terms thereafter unless earlier terminated. The Adviser is wholly owned by our Sponsor.

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2021. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our shareholders. As a REIT, we will be subject to federal income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income and net capital gain and to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on any amount by which distributions we pay with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of (1) 85% of our ordinary income, (2) 95% of our capital gain net income and (3) 100% of our undistributed income from prior years. We believe we qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Code, and we intend to continue to operate in such a manner, but no assurance can be given that we will operate in a manner so as to qualify as a REIT. Taxable income from certain non-REIT activities is managed through one or more TRS entities and is subject to applicable U.S. federal, state, and local income and margin taxes.

On October 16, 2019, Highland, a former affiliate of our Sponsor, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, which was subsequently transferred to the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On October 15, 2021, Marc S. Kirschner, as litigation trustee of a litigation subtrust formed pursuant to Highland’s plan of reorganization and disclosure statement which became effective on August 11, 2021 and was subsequently amended, filed a lawsuit (the “Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit”) against various persons and entities, including our Sponsor and James Dondero. The Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit does not include claims related to our business or our assets or operations. On March 24, 2023, the litigation trustee filed a motion seeking to voluntarily stay the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit, which was granted by the Bankruptcy Court on April 4, 2023. On June 30, 2025, the Bankruptcy Court approved a settlement agreement between Highland and Hunter Mountain Investment

43

Trust (“HMIT”) pursuant to which the claims asserted in the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit were assigned to HMIT. Parties in interest have filed a motion to vacate the HMIT settlement, and the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit has been stayed pending a ruling on that motion. In addition, on February 8, 2023, UBS Securities LLC and its affiliate (collectively, “UBS”) filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York against Mr. Dondero and a number of other persons and entities seeking to collect on $1.3 billion in judgments UBS obtained against entities that were managed indirectly by Highland (the “UBS Lawsuit”). On February 26, 2024, the respondents, including Mr. Dondero, filed motions to dismiss the UBS Lawsuit. A hearing was held on July 8, 2024. The court dismissed the claims against one respondent, CLO HoldCo, Ltd., for lack of personal jurisdiction in a July 12, 2024 order. On August 24, 2024, UBS filed a notice of appeal for that dismissal order, but withdrew its appeal on December 31, 2025. On March 26, 2025, the court entered an order denying the remaining motions to dismiss and directed the respondents to file an answer to the UBS Lawsuit within 20 days, which they did. Mr. Dondero and the other remaining respondents are appealing the denial of the motion to dismiss to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York. The appeal was argued on April 8, 2026. The Supreme Court rescheduled a status conference in the UBS Lawsuit previously set for April 14, 2026 to July 14, 2026. Neither the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit nor the UBS Lawsuit include claims related to our business or our assets. Our Sponsor and Mr. Dondero have informed us they believe the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit has no merit, and Mr. Dondero has informed us he believes the UBS Lawsuit has no merit; we have been advised that the defendants named in each of the lawsuits intend to vigorously defend against the claims. We do not expect the Bankruptcy Trust Lawsuit or the UBS Lawsuit will have a material effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Macroeconomic trends, including increases in or high inflation and rising or high interest rates, may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. Inflation could have an adverse impact on our operating expenses, as these costs could increase at a rate higher than our rental and other revenue. The high rate environment and ongoing economic uncertainty has limited credit availability to commercial real estate. Less available and more expensive debt capital has had pronounced effects on the capital markets, making property acquisitions and other investments harder to finance. Similar factors also impact the timing of and proceeds generated from asset sales and our ability to obtain debt capital. There is no guarantee we will be able to mitigate the impact of rising or high inflation. To the extent our exposure to increases in or high interest rates on any of our debt is not eliminated through interest rate swaps and interest rate protection agreements, such increases or elevated rates will result in higher debt service costs which will adversely affect our cash flows. We cannot make assurances that our access to capital and other sources of funding will not become constrained, which could adversely affect the availability and terms of future borrowings, renewals or refinancings. Such future constraints could increase our borrowing costs, which would make it more difficult or expensive to obtain additional financing or refinance existing obligations and commitments, which could slow or deter future growth.

The U.S. government announced a comprehensive set of tariffs in the second quarter of 2025. A recent U.S. Supreme Court decision held that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not authorize the President to impose tariffs. As a result, tariffs imposed under IEEPA are no longer being collected. Tariffs imposed under other statutory authorities, such as Section 232 and Section 301, remain in effect, and the U.S. government may propose replacement or additional tariffs under other legal authorities. The impact of such tariffs is subject to uncertainties regarding the timing of their implementation, the magnitude of such tariffs and possible exemption for certain goods, among other unknowns.

The net loss for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 primarily relates to mark-to-market losses on our investments accounted for at fair value partially offset by interest and dividends.

Revenues

Rental income. Rental income was $11.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $15.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $4.6 million. The decrease between the periods was primarily due to a decrease in occupancy at Cityplace and an increase in the allowance for bad debt related to certain tenants.

Rooms revenue. Rooms revenue was $26.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $24.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was an increase of approximately $1.4 million. The increase between the periods is due to the Hospitality segment not being consolidated prior to April 19, 2024 and offset by the disposition of Hospitality properties in 2025.

Food and beverage revenue. F&B revenue was $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was an increase of approximately $0.7 million. The increase between the periods is due to the Hospitality segment not being consolidated prior to April 19, 2024 and offset by the disposition of Hospitality properties in 2025.

Interest and dividends. Interest and dividends totaled $44.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $36.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was an increase of approximately $7.8 million. The increase between the periods was attributed to an increase in dividends from equity investments.

Other income. Other income was approximately $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $3.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $2.5 million. The decrease between the periods is due to a one-time amendment fee received in 2024, and recovery fees related to a legal judgment.

Expenses

Property operating expenses. Property operating expenses were $23.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $22.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was an increase of approximately $1.5 million. The increase between the periods is due to the Hospitality segment not being consolidated prior to April 19, 2024 and offset by the disposition of Hospitality properties in 2025.

Property management fees. Property management fees were $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was an increase of approximately $0.1 million. The increase between the periods is due to the Hospitality segment not being consolidated prior to April 19, 2024 and offset by the disposition of Hospitality properties in 2025.

Real estate taxes and insurance. Real estate taxes and insurance costs were $6.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $6.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $0.2 million. Real estate taxes and insurance expenses consist primarily of expenses from our investment in Cityplace and our hospitality properties. The decrease between the periods was primarily due to a decrease in the property tax assessment for Cityplace.

Advisory and administrative fees. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred administrative fees and advisory fees of $17.1 million, compared to $14.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was an increase of approximately $2.9 million. The increase between the periods is primarily attributed to a one-time termination fee paid to the former NHT Adviser in connection with the termination of the NHT Advisory Agreement following the NHT Merger.

Property general and administrative expenses. Property general and administrative expenses were $6.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $7.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $0.7 million. The decrease between the periods is due to the disposition of Hospitality properties in 2025.

Corporate general and administrative expenses. Corporate general and administrative expenses were $11.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $12.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $0.9 million. The decrease between periods was primarily due to a decrease in accounting and audit fees.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization costs were $17.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $15.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was an increase of approximately $2.1 million. The increase between the periods is due to the Hospitality segment not being consolidated prior to April 19, 2024 and offset by the disposition of Hospitality properties in 2025.

Impairment loss. Impairment loss was $2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $7.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $4.8 million. The decrease between the periods was due to an increase in impairment charges relating to the Addison Property, Plano HomeWood Suites and Las Colinas HomeWood Suites in 2024, compared to only impairment charges relating to the 5916 W Loop 289 and Addison Property in 2025.

Other Income and Expense

Interest expense. Interest expense was $26.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $28.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $1.8 million. The decrease between periods is due to the debt extinguishment of the Raymond James Loan (as defined in Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements) and decrease in floating interest rates.

Equity in income (losses) of unconsolidated ventures. Equity in losses of unconsolidated ventures was $(1.3) million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $(1.4) million. The decrease between periods was primarily due to a decrease in net income at Sandstone Pasadena Apartments, LLC in 2024.

Income tax benefit (expense). The Company has recorded income tax benefit (expense) of $0.1 million associated with the TRSs for the year ended December 31, 2025 and $(1.4) million associated with the TRSs for the year ended December 31, 2024. The tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2025 is decreased by the annual change in valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset of $4.1 million and offset by a return-to-provision adjustment of $0.5 million, income tax refund of $2.0 million, and an income tax benefit of $1.7 million for a net benefit of $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, that is recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Change in unrealized gains (losses). Unrealized gains (losses) from our investments accounted for at fair value was $(103.9) million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $(1.3) million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $102.6 million. The losses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were largely driven by mark-to-market losses on VineBrook Homes Operating Partnership, L.P. common units ("VB OP Units") of $33.1 million, IQHQ, LP ("IQHQ LP") interests of $16.6 million, NexPoint SFR Operating Partnership, L.P. (“NexPoint SFR OP”) partnership units of $12.0 million, NexPoint Storage Partners, Inc. ("NSP") common equity of $12.8 million and NREF common equity of $8.7 million. The gains for the year ended December 31, 2024 were largely driven by redemptions of the legacy CLO positions, which generated realized losses and a positive change in unrealized, mark-to-market gains on MidWave Wireless, Inc. common equity of $14.5 million, United Development Funding IV common equity of $6.2 million, offset by mark-to-market losses on IQHQ LP interests of $22.2 million, NexPoint Homes Trust, Inc. common equity of $13.9 million, and NSP common equity of $5.5 million.

Realized gains (losses). Realized gains (losses) were $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $(21.5) million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was an increase of approximately $27.5 million. The gains for the year ended December 31, 2025 were primarily driven by realized gains on equities of $6.0 million. The losses for the year ended December 31, 2024 were primarily driven by realized losses on the legacy CLOs of $22.8 million.

Non-GAAP Measurements

Consolidated Net Operating Income and Same Store Net Operating Income

Net Operating Income ("NOI") is a non-GAAP financial measure of performance. NOI is used by investors and our management to evaluate and compare the performance of our properties between segments and to other comparable properties, to determine trends in earnings and to compute the fair value of our properties as NOI is calculated by adjusting net income (loss) to add back (1) interest expense, (2) advisory fees and administrative fees, (3) the impact of depreciation and amortization, (4) corporate general and administrative expenses, (5) income tax (benefit) expenses, (6) non-operating property investment revenue, (7) realized and change in unrealized gains (losses) generated from non-real estate investments, (8) equity in income (losses) of unconsolidated equity method ventures, and (9) impairment loss.

These items can create distortions when comparing one period to another or when comparing our operating results to the operating results of other real estate companies. We believe that eliminating these items from net income (loss) is useful because the resulting measure captures the actual ongoing revenue generated and actual expenses incurred in operating our properties as well as trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. However, the usefulness of NOI is limited because it excludes these items, all of which may be material values. NOI may fail to capture significant trends in these components of net income, which further limits its usefulness.

NOI is a measure of the operating performance of our properties but does not measure our performance as a whole. NOI is therefore not a substitute for net income (loss) as computed in accordance with GAAP. This measure should be analyzed in conjunction with net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP and discussions elsewhere in

68

Table of Contents

“—Consolidated Results of Operations” regarding the components of net income (loss) that are eliminated in the calculation of NOI.

Other companies may use different methods for calculating NOI or similarly entitled measures and, accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies that do not define the measure exactly as we do.

We define “Same Store NOI” as NOI for our properties that are comparable between periods, are stabilized and are not expected to cease being stabilized in the near future due to planned construction, renovation or similar activity that would materially impact operations. Please see below for a discussion of properties included as Same Store. We view Same Store NOI as an important measure of the operating performance of our properties because it allows us to compare operating results of properties owned for the entirety of the current and comparable periods and therefore eliminates variations caused by acquisitions or dispositions from the beginning of the compared period to the end of the current period.

There are two properties, White Rock Center and 5916 W Loop 289, in our same store pool for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (our "Same Store" properties). Our Same Store properties exclude Cityplace as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, because it was not yet stabilized, meaning construction or renovation was not completed. Non-Same Store properties include properties not yet stabilized. Our Same Store properties also exclude the Hospitality segment, as the properties in that segment were not held in the full comparable period.

Consolidated Same Store Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024

As of December 31, 2025, our Same Store properties were approximately 59.7% leased with a weighted average monthly effective occupied rent per square foot of $1.19, compared to 52.1% leased with a weighted average monthly effective occupied rent per square foot of $1.10 as of December 31, 2024. For our Same Store properties, we recorded the following operating results for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Revenues

Rental Income. Rental income was $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which is an increase of approximately $0.6 million or 49.9%. The majority of the increase between the year ended December 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024 is related to a decrease in the amortization of above- and below-market leases. Above-market leases decrease rental income as they are amortized, while below-market leases increase rental income.

Expenses

Property operating expenses. Property operating expenses were $260.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $223.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was an increase of approximately $37.0 thousand or 16.6%. The majority of the increase between the year ended December 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024 is related to an increase in repair and maintenance fees.

Real estate taxes and insurance. Real estate taxes and insurance costs were $280.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $293.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $13.0 thousand or 4.4%. The majority of the decrease between the year ended December 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024 is related to a decrease in the property tax assessment.

Property management fees. Property management fees were $85.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $75.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was an increase of approximately $10.0 thousand, or 13.3%. The increase between the year ended December 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024 is related to an increase in rental revenue, which the management fee is calculated off of.

Property general and administrative expenses. Property general and administrative expenses were $26.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $48.0 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $22.0 thousand, or 45.8%. The majority of the decrease between the year ended December 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024 is related to a decrease in professional fees.

Consolidated FFO and AFFO

We believe that net income (loss), as defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure. We also believe that funds from operations (“FFO”), as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) are important non-GAAP supplemental measures of operating performance for a REIT.

Since the historical cost accounting convention used for real estate assets requires depreciation except on land, such accounting presentation implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market and other conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT that use historical cost accounting for depreciation could be less informative. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs that excludes historical cost depreciation and amortization, among other items, from net income (loss), as defined by GAAP. We compute FFO attributable to common shareholders as net income (loss), excluding gains or losses from real estate dispositions, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, plus impairment losses and realized gains (losses). Our calculation of FFO differs slightly from NAREIT's definition of FFO because we exclude

72

Table of Contents

realized gains (losses). We believe the exclusion of realized gains (losses) is appropriate because these realized gains (losses) are not related to our real estate properties. Our presentation differs slightly in that we begin with net income (loss) before adjusting for amounts attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests in NHT and redeemable non-controlling interests in the OP and we show the combined amounts attributable to such non-controlling interests as an adjustment to arrive at FFO attributable to common shareholders.

AFFO makes certain adjustments to FFO in order to arrive at a more refined measure of the operating performance of our Portfolio. There is no industry standard definition of AFFO and practice is divergent across the industry. AFFO adjusts FFO to remove items such as equity-based compensation expense and the amortization of deferred financing costs incurred in connection with obtaining long-term debt financing, non-controlling interests (as described above) related to these items, and change in unrealized gains (losses). In addition, we remove the termination fee paid to the NHT Advisor in connection with the termination of the NHT Advisory Agreement following the NHT Merger as they do not reflect the ongoing operations of the property owners. We believe AFFO is useful to investors as a supplemental gauge of our operating performance and is useful in comparing our operating performance with other REITs that are not as involved in the aforementioned activities.

We believe that the use of FFO and AFFO, combined with the required GAAP presentations, improves the understanding of operating results of REITs among investors and makes comparisons of operating results among such companies more meaningful. While FFO and AFFO are relevant and widely used measures of operating performance of REITs, they do not represent cash flows from operations or net income (loss) as defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative or substitute to those measures in evaluating our liquidity or operating performance. FFO and AFFO do not purport to be indicative of cash available to fund our future cash requirements. Further, our computation of FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to FFO and AFFO reported by other REITs that do not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition or define AFFO differently than we do.

The year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024

FFO was $(112.3) million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $(7.6) million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of approximately $104.7 million. The change in our FFO between the year ended

74

Table of Contents

December 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024 is primarily attributed to decreases in mark-to-market values of our investments at fair value.

AFFO was $(4.2) million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $(8.6) million for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was an increase of approximately $4.4 million. The change in our AFFO between the year ended December 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024 is primarily attributed to a decrease in interest expense, related to a decrease in debt balance and interest rates.

Net Asset Value

The SEC does not provide rules on the methodology we must use to determine our NAV or NAV per common share. The determination of NAV involves a number of subjective assumptions, estimates and judgments that may not be accurate or complete. We believe there is no established practice among REITs for calculating NAV. Different firms using different property-specific, general real estate, capital markets, economic and other assumptions, estimates and judgments could derive a NAV that could be significantly different from our NAV. Thus, other public REITs' methodologies used to calculate NAV may differ materially from ours. Additionally, our NAV differs from the values of our real estate assets as calculated in accordance with GAAP, in that we calculate NAV based on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as total assets minus total liabilities, less any equity attributable to preferred shareholders (such as the Series A Preferred Shares) and noncontrolling interests. Our NAV per common share is calculated by dividing our NAV by our diluted common shares outstanding, which represents the aggregate of our common shares outstanding plus any unvested restricted share units as of the last day of the reporting period, and common shares assumed to be issued upon redemption of any outstanding and applicable Series B Preferred Shares. We calculate NAV per common share on a quarterly basis beginning with the quarter ended December 31, 2024.

The presentation of NAV and NAV per common share below is intended to be the Applicable NAV (as defined in the statement of preferences of the Series B Preferred Shares) for purposes of the offering of the Series B Preferred Shares. The below table presents the NAV calculation for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, along with the previously published Applicable NAV figures for past quarters (in thousands, except per common share amounts):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for debt maturities, operating expenses and other expenditures including:

•
capital expenditures to continue the ongoing development of Cityplace;

•
capital expenditures necessary to maintain the Hospitality hotel properties;

75

Table of Contents

•
interest expense and scheduled principal payments on outstanding indebtedness (see “—Obligations and Commitments” below);

•
recurring maintenance necessary to maintain our properties;

•
distributions necessary to qualify for taxation as a REIT;

•
income taxes for taxable income generated by TRS entities;

•
acquisition of additional properties or investments;

•
advisory and administrative fees payable to our Adviser;

•
general and administrative expenses;

•
reimbursements to our Adviser; and

•
property management fees.

We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements generally through our investment income, existing cash balance and, if necessary, future debt or equity issuances. As of December 31, 2025, we had $8.2 million of cash available to meet our short-term liquidity requirements. As of December 31, 2025, we also had $32.8 million of restricted cash held in reserve by the lender on the Cityplace debt. These reserves include escrows for property taxes and insurance, reserves for tenant improvements as well as required excess collateral. As of December 31, 2025, we also had $0.9 million of restricted cash held in reserve by the lender on the NexBank Revolver (as defined below). These reserves are to be used for future interest payments on the debt facility. As of December 31, 2025, we also had $9.5 million of restricted cash reserves associated with the Hospitality segment for brand-mandated Performance Improvement Plan and furniture, fixtures and equipment upgrades arising from the execution of the Company’s franchise agreement and future insurance and property tax expenses.

Our long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for the costs of acquiring additional properties, make additional accretive investments pursuant to our investment strategy, renovations and other capital expenditures to improve our properties and scheduled debt payments and distributions. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements through various sources of capital, which may include the Series B Preferred Offering, a revolving credit facility and future debt or equity issuances, existing working capital, net cash provided by operations, long-term mortgage indebtedness and other secured and unsecured borrowings, and property and non-real estate asset dispositions. However, there are a number of factors that may have a material adverse effect on our ability to access these capital sources, including the state of overall equity and credit markets, our degree of leverage, our unencumbered asset base and borrowing restrictions imposed by lenders (including as a result of any failure to comply with financial covenants in our existing and future indebtedness), general market conditions for REITs, our operating performance and liquidity, market perceptions about us and restrictions on sales of properties under the Code. The success of our business strategy will depend, in part, on our ability to access these various capital sources.

In addition to our ongoing renovation of Cityplace, our other properties will require periodic capital expenditures and renovation to remain competitive. We estimate an additional $250 million to $270 million of capital expenditures to complete the Cityplace renovation. Also, acquisitions, redevelopments, or expansions of our properties will require significant capital outlays. Long-term, we may not be able to fund such capital improvements solely from net cash provided by operations because we must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deductions for distributions paid and excluding net capital gains, to qualify and maintain our qualification as a REIT, and we are subject to tax on any retained income and gains. As a result, our ability to fund capital expenditures, acquisitions, or redevelopment through retained earnings long-term is limited. Consequently, we expect to rely heavily upon the availability of debt or equity capital for these purposes. If we are unable to obtain the necessary capital on favorable terms, or at all, our financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.

76

Table of Contents

The Company is focused on reallocating its asset allocation across sectors in which our Sponsor has extensive experience and expertise. This re-focusing will involve selling legacy assets that do not fall within our core investment strategy or recycling assets at attractive prices. A more favorable capital market environment, with lower interest rates and increased liquidity, is expected to facilitate this process. The Company’s objective is to opportunistically sell $100 million to $150 million in assets to free up capital for reinvestment (through debt or equity) in target asset classes such as residential, hospitality, self-storage, and life sciences, or to repurchase the Company's common shares.

We believe that our available cash, expected operating cash flows, and potential debt or equity financings will provide sufficient funds for our operations, anticipated scheduled debt service payments and distribution requirements for the twelve-month period following December 31, 2025. See “—Debt” for additional details regarding our indebtedness and related liquidity requirements.

Recent Tax Law Update

On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed into law the OBBBA. The OBBBA made significant changes to the U.S. federal income tax laws in various areas. Among the notable changes, the OBBBA permanently extended certain provisions that were enacted in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, most of which were set to expire after December 31, 2025. These include the permanent extension of (i) the reduced marginal U.S. federal income tax rates and (ii) the 20% deduction on “qualified REIT dividends” for individuals and other non-corporate taxpayers and (iii) the limitation on non-corporate taxpayers using “excess business losses” to offset other income. The OBBBA also increased the percentage limit under the REIT asset test applicable to TRSs from 20% to 25% for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025. As a result, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025, the aggregate value of all securities of TRSs held by a REIT may not exceed 25% of the value of its gross assets.

Series B Preferred Shares Offering

On January 30, 2025, the Company announced the launch of a continuous public offering of up to 16,000,000 shares of its newly designated Series B Preferred Shares at a price to the public of $25.00 per share, for gross proceeds of up to $400.0 million. The Series B Preferred Shares are convertible at the option of the holder thereof into our common shares beginning on the first day of the month following the third anniversary of the date of original issuance of the shares to be converted if the 5-day volume weighted average price of our common shares on the NYSE ending on the trading day immediately preceding the date the holder delivers a duly completed conversion notice to the Company (such 5-day VWAP, the “Market Price”) represents a 15.0% premium to the estimated fair market NAV of the Company per common share as most recently published by the Company at the time of issuance of the applicable Series B Preferred Share (the “Minimum Market Price Trigger”). If the Minimum Market Price Trigger is satisfied, the Series B Preferred Shares will be convertible at a 6%, 10% or 12% discount to the Market Price beginning on the first day of the month following the third, fourth and fifth anniversary of the date of original issuance of the shares to be converted, respectively. Beginning on the first day of the calendar month following the date of original issuance, the Series B Preferred Shares are redeemable at the option of the holder at a redemption price per share equal to the stated value of $25.00 per share, plus all accrued but unpaid cash distributions and less certain redemption fees. After the first day of the first quarter following the second anniversary of the date of original issuance, the Company also has the option to redeem, in whole or in part, subject to certain restrictions in the Company’s agreement and declaration of trust and the statement of preferences setting forth the terms of the Series B Preferred Shares, at a redemption price per share equal to the stated value of $25.00 per share, plus any accrued but unpaid cash distributions. In all optional redemptions, the Company has the right, in its sole discretion, to pay the redemption in cash or in equal value of the Company’s common shares for so long as the common shares are listed or admitted to trading on the NYSE or another national securities exchange or automated quotation system. NexPoint Securities, Inc., an affiliate of the Adviser, serves as the Company’s dealer manager (the "Dealer Manager") in connection with the offering. The Dealer Manager uses its reasonable best efforts to sell the Series B Preferred Shares offered in the offering, and the Company pays the Dealer Manager, subject to the discounts and other special circumstances described or referenced therein, (i) selling commissions of 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from sales of Series B Preferred Shares in the offering (“Selling Commissions”) and (ii) a dealer manager fee of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from sales of Series B Preferred Shares in the

77

Table of Contents

offering (the “Dealer Manager Fee”). The Dealer Manager, subject to federal and state securities laws, will reallow all or any portion of the Selling Commissions and may reallow a portion of the Dealer Manager Fee to other securities dealers that the Dealer Manager may retain who sold the Series B Preferred Shares as is described more fully in the agreements between such dealers and the Dealer Manager. The Company expects that the offering will terminate on the earlier of the date the Company sells all 16,000,000 Series B Preferred Shares in the offering or August 1, 2027 (which is the third anniversary of the effective date of the Company’s registration statement), which may be extended by the Board in its sole discretion. The Board may elect to terminate this offering at any time. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has sold 911,003 shares of the Series B Preferred Shares for total gross proceeds of $22.4 million.

Cash flows from operating activities. During the year ended December 31, 2025, net cash provided by operating activities was $9.2 million, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $(11.7) million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The change in cash flows from operating activities was mainly attributable to an increase in revenues, reduction in reinvested dividends and positive changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Cash flows from investing activities. During the year ended December 31, 2025, net cash provided by investing activities was $37.0 million, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $26.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The change in cash flows from investing activities was attributed to proceeds of properties sold of $28.3 million and a return of capital from the Marriott Uptown investment of $15.1 million.

Cash flows from financing activities. During the year ended December 31, 2025, net cash used in financing activities was $(43.6) million, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $(18.6) million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The change in cash flows from financing activities was due to paydowns on the mortgage debt with proceeds from the properties sold, offset by proceeds from the issuance of Series B Preferred Shares.

Debt

Mortgage Debt

As of December 31, 2025, our consolidated subsidiaries had aggregate mortgage debt outstanding to third parties of approximately $225.2 million at a weighted average interest rate of 7.52%. See Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.

We intend to invest in additional real estate investments as suitable opportunities arise and adequate sources of equity and debt financing are available. We expect that future investments in properties, including any improvements or renovations of current or newly acquired properties, will depend on and will be financed by, in whole or in part, our existing cash, future borrowings and the proceeds from additional issuances of common shares or other securities or investment and property dispositions.

78

Table of Contents

Although we expect to be subject to restrictions on our ability to incur indebtedness, we expect that we will be able to refinance existing indebtedness or incur additional indebtedness for acquisitions or other purposes, if needed. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance our indebtedness, incur additional indebtedness or access additional sources of capital, such as by issuing common shares or other debt or equity securities, on terms that are acceptable to us or at all.

Furthermore, following the completion of our renovation and development programs and depending on the interest rate environment at the applicable time, we may seek to refinance our floating rate debt into longer-term fixed rate debt at lower leverage levels.

Cityplace Debt

Effective March 8, 2026, the lender agreed to defer the maturity of the Cityplace debt to May 8, 2026. Management is currently engaged in discussions with the lender regarding the extension of the maturity date of the Cityplace debt. Management cannot provide assurance that the lender will agree to such an extension. While the lender has not yet demanded payment of the Cityplace indebtedness, management cannot provide assurance that the lender will not exercise its right to do so or exercise its other remedies under the credit agreement, including foreclosing on Cityplace.

Should management be unable to complete any of these options, management has the contractual right to surrender the property to the lender in lieu of repayment. If the Company were to surrender the property to the lender, management believes that its remaining liquidity is sufficient for it to satisfy its remaining obligations for a period of one year from the date these financial statements are issued.

Revolving Credit Facility

On May 22, 2023, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility with NexBank (the "NexBank Revolver"), with the option for the Company to receive additional disbursements thereunder up to a maximum amount of $50.0 million, and matures on May 21, 2026. The NexBank Revolver bears interest at one-month SOFR plus 3.50% and has two remaining six-month extension options. As of December 31, 2025, the NexBank Revolver had an outstanding balance of $11.0 million. As of December 31, 2025, the Company held $0.9 million in restricted cash in the interest reserve account.

Notes Payable, Freedom LHV

On August 2, 2024, the Company, through Freedom LHV, LLC (“Freedom LHV”), an indirect subsidiary of the Company, borrowed approximately $10.0 million from The Ohio State Life Insurance Company (“OSL”), an entity that may be deemed an affiliate of the Adviser through common beneficial ownership. The note bears interest at an annual fixed rate of 10.0% and matures on August 2, 2029. The debt is secured by certain real property held by Freedom LHV and is guaranteed by the Company.

Mortgages Payable, Hospitality

On February 28, 2019, NHT, through subsidiaries of NHT OP, entered into a borrowing arrangement for a $59.4 million Note A loan (the “Note A Loan”) and a $28.6 million Note B loan (the “Note B Loan”) with ACORE Capital Mortgage, LP. The Note A Loan bears interest at a variable rate equal to the 30-day SOFR plus 2.00% and was set to mature on February 8, 2026. The Note B Loan bears interest at a variable rate equal to the 30-day SOFR plus 6.46% and was set to mature on February 8, 2026. On February 6, 2026 and February 8, 2026, respectively, the Company paid down a portion of the Note A Loan and Note B Loan and extended the maturity dates thereof. See Note 18 for a discussion of the extension of the maturity dates of the Note A Loan and Note B Loan. As of December 31, 2025, the Note A Loan and Note B Loan had an outstanding balance of $26.4 million and $12.7 million and effective interest rates of 6.15% and 10.61%, respectively.

On February 15, 2022, in connection with the acquisition of the Park City and Bradenton properties, NHT, through subsidiaries of NHT OP, entered into a borrowing arrangement for a $39.3 million loan (the “PC & B Loan”) with AREEIF

79

Table of Contents

Lender, LLC, which initially had a maturity date of February 5, 2026. See Note 18 for a discussion of the extinguishment of the PC & B Loan. The outstanding balance on the PC & B Loan at December 31, 2025 was $38.6 million, with $0.7 million available to draw on for renovation purposes as of December 31, 2025.

The loan documents, including the guaranty, for the PC & B Loan and the Note A Loan and Note B Loan contain customary representations, warranties, and events of default, which require a subsidiary of the Company to comply with affirmative and negative covenants.

Convertible Notes, Hospitality

A subsidiary of the Company also assumed several convertible notes with affiliates of the NHT Adviser at the closing of the NHT Merger. The fixed rate notes have rates ranging from 2.25% to 7.50% (which were market interest rates at the time of their issuance) while outstanding and mature in 20 years from their date of issuance. As of December 31, 2025, the net carrying amount of the convertible notes due to affiliates of the former NHT Adviser was $51.9 million.

Promissory Notes Due to Affiliates

In connection with the NHT Merger, on April 17, 2025, several promissory notes with affiliates of the Company were issued due to a limitation on common shares issued to affiliates of the issuer by the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The aggregate principal amount of such promissory notes was $0.8 million, each with an interest rate of 7.334% and maturing on April 15, 2027, with two one-year extension options. As of December 31, 2025, the carrying amount of the promissory notes due to affiliates was $0.8 million.

Advisory Agreement

As consideration for the Adviser’s services under the Advisory Agreement, we pay our Adviser the Fees, which includes the Advisory Fee equal to 1.00% of Managed Assets and the Administrative Fee equal to 0.20% of the Company’s Managed Assets. The Advisory Agreement provides that, for the Fees that accrued prior to September 19, 2025, the Administrative Fees shall be paid in cash and the monthly installment of the Advisory Fees shall be paid one-half in cash and one-half in common shares of the Company, subject to certain restrictions, and that for the Fees accruing after September 19, 2025, the Fees shall be paid entirely in cash unless the Adviser elects, in its sole discretion, to receive a portion of the Fees in common shares of the Company, subject to certain restrictions. For additional information, see Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements.

We also generally reimburse our Adviser for operating or offering expenses it incurs on our behalf or in connection with the services it performs for us. The Adviser may, at its discretion and at any time, waive its right to reimbursement for eligible out-of-pocket expenses paid on the Company’s behalf. Once waived, those expenses are considered permanently waived and became non-recoupable.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company expensed $13.2 million, related to the Fees. Of this $13.2 million, $3.7 million is related to shares that were issued in lieu of cash.

NHT Advisory Agreement

Prior to the closing of the NHT Merger on April 17, 2025, as consideration for the NHT Adviser’s services under the NHT Advisory Agreement, we paid the NHT Adviser an advisory fee equal to 1.00% of the REIT Asset Value (as defined in the NHT Advisory Agreement). Pursuant to the terms of the NHT Advisory Agreement, NHT reimbursed the NHT Adviser for all documented Operating Expenses (as defined in the NHT Advisory Agreement) and offering expenses it incurred on behalf of NHT. Expenses paid or incurred by NHT for advisory fees payable to the NHT Adviser, Operating Expenses incurred by the NHT Adviser or its affiliates in connection with the services it provides to NHT and its subsidiaries and compensation expenses relating to equity awards granted under a long-term incentive plan of NHT will not exceed 1.5% of the REIT Asset Value for the calendar year (or part thereof) that the NHT Advisory Agreement is in effect (the “NHT Expense Cap”). The NHT Expense Cap did not apply to legal, accounting, financial, due diligence and other service fees incurred in connection with extraordinary litigation and mergers and acquisitions and other events outside NHT’s ordinary course of business or any out-of-pocket acquisition or due diligence expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition or disposition of real estate assets. From the date of the NHT Acquisition to the period ended December 31, 2024, NHT incurred expenses subject to the NHT Expense Cap of $3.4 million. From January 1, 2025 through April 17, 2025, NHT incurred expenses subject to the NHT Expense Cap of $1.9 million. The NHT Advisory Agreement was terminated in connection with the closing of the NHT Merger on April 17, 2025.

Alewife Holdings Loan

On May 10, 2024, the Company, through the OP, NREF OP IV, L.P. ("NREF OP IV"), a subsidiary of NREF, an entity that is managed by an affiliate of the Adviser, and OSL, an entity that may be deemed an affiliate of the Adviser through common beneficial ownership, entered into an Assignment and Assumption and Co-Lender Agreement, pursuant to which NREF OP IV assigned the right to fund up to 9% of a mezzanine loan (the “Alewife Loan”) to be made to IQHQ-Alewife Holdings, LLC (“Alewife Holdings”) to the OP and allocated the right to fund up to 9% of the Alewife Loan to OSL. Effective January 2, 2025, NREF OP IV and OSL entered into an Assignment and Assumption and Co-Lender Agreement, pursuant to which NREF OP IV assigned $7.5 million of interest in the Alewife Loan to OSL for cash and increased OSL’s allocation of the right to fund up to 10.32% of the Alewife Loan. In addition, at any time and from time to time, NREF may purchase up to all of the amounts funded by OSL in the Alewife Loan from OSL. Upon receipt of a draw request, the OP and OSL have the right to elect to fund an amount equal or greater than zero and up to (i) 9% or 10.32%, respectively, of the total amount of all advances previously made under the Alewife Loan plus the amount of the then current borrowing, (ii) less the

81

total amount of advances previously made by the OP and OSL, respectively. NREF OP IV is required to fund any amounts not funded by OSL and the OP. At any time that the OP and OSL have funded less than their respective percentages of all advances made under the Alewife Loan, the OP and OSL have the option upon notice to NREF OP IV to pay to NREF OP IV any amount of such unfunded amount. Upon such payment, the OP or OSL would become entitled to all interest and fees accrued on the amount paid to NREF OP IV on and after the date of such payment.

IQHQ Subscription Agreement and Warrant

On December 31, 2024, NexPoint Bridge Investor I, LLC ("Bridge Investor I") entered into a Subscription Agreement (“IQHQ Subscription Agreement”) whereby Bridge Investor I committed to purchase $160.1 million of Series E preferred stock of IQHQ, Inc. In connection with the IQHQ Subscription Agreement, on December 31, 2024, Bridge Investor I also entered into a Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “IQHQ Warrant Purchase Agreement”) whereby IQHQ Holdings, LP ("IQHQ Holdings") issued and sold a corresponding warrant to Bridge Investor I to purchase Class A-3 Units of IQHQ Holdings (as amended, the “IQHQ Series E Warrant”). The IQHQ Series E Warrant entitles the holder to purchase, at an exercise price of $0.01, Class A-3 Units of IQHQ Holdings initially intended to represent up to 10.25% of the fully diluted and outstanding common equity of IQHQ Holdings. The IQHQ Series E Warrant is exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time for ten years unless there is an earlier change of control, initial public offering or liquidation.

In connection with the IQHQ Subscription Agreement and IQHQ Warrant Purchase Agreement, the OP, along with NREF, through certain subsidiaries, and certain entities advised by affiliates of our Adviser (the “IQHQ Participating Purchasers”) entered into a participation rights agreement with Bridge Investor I pursuant to which the OP and the IQHQ Participating Purchasers have a right to fund up to specified amounts of the IQHQ Subscription Agreement and the IQHQ Series E Warrant. Upon receipt of a draw request, each IQHQ Participating Purchaser has the right to elect to fund an amount equal or greater than zero up to their respective preemptive right under the IQHQ Holdings or IQHQ, L.P. organizational documents less the total amount of advances previously made by such IQHQ Participating Purchaser. Upon receipt of a draw request, the OP will also have the right to elect to fund an amount equal or greater than zero up to 50% of the total requested amount that is not funded by the IQHQ Participating Purchasers. NREF would be required to fund any amounts not funded by the IQHQ Participating Purchasers and the OP. At any time that the IQHQ Participating Purchasers have funded less than their respective participation amounts, the IQHQ Participating Purchasers have the option to pay NREF or the OP (to the extent it has funded) any amount of such unfunded amount. Upon such payment, the IQHQ Participating Purchaser would become entitled to all interest accrued on the amounts paid to NREF or the OP, if applicable, on and after the date of such payment. Bridge Investor I can allocate all or any portion of the IQHQ Bridge Warrant to any parties to the participation rights agreement.

As of the December 31, 2025, the OP has not funded any amounts.

Income Taxes

I.
U.S. REIT Status

We anticipate that we will continue to qualify to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and we intend to continue to be organized and to operate in a manner that will permit us to qualify as a REIT. However, we can give no assurance that we will maintain REIT qualification. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of our annual “REIT taxable income”, as defined by the Code, to shareholders. As a REIT, we will be subject to federal income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income and net capital gain and to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on any amount by which distributions we pay with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of (1) 85% of our ordinary income, (2) 95% of our capital gain net income and (3) 100% of our undistributed income from prior years. Taxable income from certain non-REIT activities is managed through a TRS and is subject to applicable federal, state, and local income and margin taxes. The Company has recorded a current income tax benefit of $0.1 million associated with the TRSs for the year ended December 31, 2025, which is largely driven by income from the Company’s preferred stock investments and investments in debt instruments not secured by mortgages on real property. The tax benefit is decreased by the annual change in valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset of $4.1 million

82

Table of Contents

and offset by a return-to-provision adjustment of $0.5 million, income tax refund of $2.0 million, and an income tax benefit of $1.7 million for a net benefit of $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, that is recorded on the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we could be subject to U.S. federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates, and distributions paid to our shareholders would not be deductible by us in computing taxable income. Any resulting corporate liability could be substantial and could materially and adversely affect our net income (loss) and net cash available for distribution to shareholders. Unless we were entitled to relief under certain Code provisions, we also would be disqualified from re-electing to be taxed as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year in which we failed to qualify to be taxed as a REIT. As of December 31, 2025, we believe we are in compliance with all applicable REIT requirements.

We evaluate the accounting and disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” (greater than 50% probability) of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Our management is required to analyze all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, for all major jurisdictions, which include federal and certain states. As of December 31, 2025 and to our knowledge, we have no examinations in progress and none are expected at this time.

We recognize our tax positions and evaluate them using a two-step process. First, we determine whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. Second, we will determine the amount of benefit to recognize and record the amount that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement.

We had no material unrecognized tax benefit or expense, accrued interest or penalties as of December 31, 2025. We and our subsidiaries are subject to federal income tax as well as income tax of various state and local jurisdictions. The 2023, 2022 and 2021 tax years remain open to examination by tax jurisdictions to which our subsidiaries and we are subject. When applicable, we recognize interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

II.
Canadian mutual fund status

Prior to the closing of the NHT Merger, NHT was a mutual fund trust pursuant to the Tax Act. Under the then-current tax legislation, a mutual fund trust that was not a SIFT pursuant to the Tax Act is entitled to deduct distributions of taxable income such that it was not liable to pay Canadian income taxes provided that its taxable income was fully distributed to unitholders.

Distributions

We intend to make regular quarterly distribution payments to holders of our common shares. U.S. federal income tax law generally requires that a REIT distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, without regard to the deduction for distributions paid and excluding net capital gains. As a REIT, we will be subject to federal income tax on our undistributed REIT taxable income and net capital gain and to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on any amount by which distributions we pay with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of (1) 85% of our ordinary income, (2) 95% of our capital gain net income and (3) 100% of our undistributed income from prior years. We intend to make regular quarterly distribution payments of all or substantially all of our taxable income to holders of our common shares out of assets legally available for this purpose, if and to the extent authorized by our Board. Before we make any distribution payments, whether for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise, we must first meet both our operating requirements and debt service on our debt payable. If our cash available for distribution is less than our taxable income, we could be required to sell assets, borrow funds or raise additional capital to make cash distributions or we may make a portion of the required distribution in the form of a taxable distribution of shares or debt securities.

83

Table of Contents

We will make distribution payments based on our estimate of taxable earnings per common share, but not earnings calculated pursuant to GAAP. Our distributions and taxable income and GAAP earnings will typically differ due to items such as depreciation and amortization, fair value adjustments, differences in premium amortization and discount accretion, investments held through our TRSs, book/tax differences on income derived from partnerships, and non-deductible general and administrative expenses. Our quarterly dividends per share may be substantially different than our quarterly taxable earnings and GAAP earnings per share. Our Board declared a distribution on our common shares of $0.15 per share which was paid on December 31, 2025 to shareholders of record on November 21, 2025. The distribution on the Company’s common shares consists of a combination of cash and shares, with the cash component of the distribution (other than cash paid in lieu of fractional shares) not to exceed 20% in the aggregate, with the balance being paid in the Company’s common shares. Our Board declared a distribution on our Series A Preferred Shares of $0.34375 per share which was paid on December 31, 2025, to shareholders of record on December 23, 2025. Our Board declared distributions on our Series B Preferred Shares of $0.1875 per share each, which were paid on January 5, 2026, December 5, 2025 and November 5, 2025, to shareholders of record on December 24, 2025, November 25, 2025 and October 24, 2025, respectively. We expect that distributions on our common shares, when, if and as declared by our Board, will be declared on a quarterly basis.

The purpose of paying the elective share distribution partially in shares and partially in cash is to conserve cash for additional investments at the Company. The Company may revert to paying the distribution solely in cash at some point in the future when cash flow from operations supports such a cash distribution. However, there can be no assurance that cash flow from operations will be able to support a cash distribution in the future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2025, we had the following off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Commitments

The Company is a guarantor on dividend payments with respect to Series D Preferred Stock of NSP, which may be deemed an affiliate of the Adviser. As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding NSP Series D Preferred Stock accrued dividends were $15.0 million, and the Company and NREF OP IV REIT Sub, LLC are jointly and severally liable for 85.90% of the guaranteed amount. See Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.

The Company is a guarantor on one of NSP’s loans, with an aggregate principal amount of $750.0 million outstanding as of December 31, 2025. The obligations consist of liability for losses suffered by the lender arising out of certain bad acts, such as if the borrower takes actions that are fraudulent or improper or upon certain violations of the related loan agreement. See Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.

The Company is a limited guarantor and an indemnitor on one of our subsidiary's loans with an aggregate principal amount of $41.6 million as of December 31, 2025. The obligations include a customary environmental indemnity and a so-called "bad boy" guarantee, which is generally only applicable if and when the borrower directly, or indirectly through an agreement with an affiliate, joint venture partner or other third party, voluntarily files a bankruptcy or similar liquidation or reorganization action or takes other actions that are fraudulent or improper. The Company is current on all debt payments and in compliance with all debt compliance provisions.

The Company is a guarantor and an indemnitor on one of Cityplace's loans with an aggregate principal amount of $138.2 million as of December 31, 2025. The obligations include guarantees, which are generally only applicable if and when the borrower, which is a subsidiary of the Company, directly, or indirectly through an agreement with an affiliate, joint venture partner or other third party, voluntarily terminates construction services prior to the completion of the project, files a bankruptcy or similar liquidation or reorganization action or takes other actions that are fraudulent or improper. As of December 31, 2025, management does not anticipate any material deviations from schedule or budget related to construction

projects current in process, and Cityplace is current on all debt payments and in compliance with all debt compliance provisions.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate these judgments, assumptions and estimates for changes that would affect the reported amounts. These estimates are based on management’s historical industry experience and on various other judgments and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these judgments, assumptions and estimates. Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that we consider critical to understanding our financial condition or results of operations where there is uncertainty or where significant judgment is required.

See Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, for further discussion of our accounting estimates and policies.

Valuation of Level 3 Fair Valued Investments

As of December 31, 2025, approximately 42.3% of the total assets owned by the Company are comprised of fair valued level 3 investments. The Company elected the fair-value option in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 825-10-10. On an annual basis, the Company hires independent third-party valuation firms to provide updated fair values for subsequent measurement absent a readily available market price. The valuation is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques. See Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements, “Fair Value Financial Instruments”, for further discussion of our valuation techniques of level 3 investments. The necessary inputs for these valuations includes a variety of valuation techniques and unobservable inputs. These inputs are subject to assumptions and estimates. As a result, the determination of fair value is uncertain because it involves subjective judgments and estimates that are unobservable. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the unrealized gains (losses) related to the change in fair value of level 3 investments is $(91.0) million. See Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures regarding the valuation of level 3 fair valued investments.

Purchase Price Allocation

Upon acquisition of a property considered to be an asset acquisition, the purchase price and related acquisition costs (“total consideration”) are allocated to land, buildings, improvements, furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and intangible lease assets based on relative fair value in accordance with FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations. Acquisition costs related to asset acquisitions are capitalized in accordance with FASB ASC 805.

The allocation of total consideration, which is determined using inputs that are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy established by FASB ASC 820 (see Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements), is based on management’s estimate of the property’s “as-if” vacant fair value and is calculated by using all available information such as the replacement cost of such asset, appraisals, property condition reports, market data and other related information. If any debt is assumed in an acquisition, the difference between the fair value, which is estimated using inputs that are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and the face value of debt is recorded as a premium or discount and amortized as interest expense over the life of the debt assumed.

Impairment

Real estate assets held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The key inputs into our impairment analysis include, but are not limited to, the holding period, net operating income, and capitalization rates. In such cases, we will evaluate the recoverability

85

Table of Contents

of such real estate assets based on estimated future cash flows and the estimated liquidation value of such real estate assets, and provide for impairment if such undiscounted cash flows are insufficient to recover the carrying amount of the real estate asset. If impaired, the real estate asset will be written down to its estimated fair value. The Company’s impairment analysis identifies and evaluates events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying amount of a real estate investment may not be recoverable, including determining the period the Company will hold the rental property, net operating income, and the estimated capitalization rate for each respective real estate investment. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded approximately $0.6 million and $5.2 million of impairment charges on real estate assets held and used, which are included in impairment loss on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Held for Sale

The Company periodically classifies real estate assets as held for sale when certain criteria are met in accordance with U.S. GAAP. At that time, the Company presents the net real estate assets and the liabilities associated with the real estate held for sale separately in its consolidated balance sheet, and the Company ceases recording depreciation and amortization expense related to that property. Real estate held for sale is reported at the lower of its carrying amount or its estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were zero and three properties classified as held for sale, respectively. In addition to the net real estate assets, the Consolidated Balance Sheets also include approximately $0.0 million and $0.1 million of accounts receivable and prepaid and other assets, and approximately $0.0 million and $0.8 million of accounts payable, real estate taxes payable, security deposits, prepaid rents, and other accrued liabilities related to assets held for sale as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded approximately $1.8 million and $1.9 million of losses on real estate held for sale, which are included in impairment loss on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Inflation

The real estate market has not been directly affected by inflation in the past several years due to increases in rents nationwide. Our lease terms are generally for a period of one year or more and rental rates reset to market if renewed. The majority of our leases also contain protection provisions applicable to reimbursement billings for utilities.

Inflation may also affect the overall cost of debt, as the implied cost of capital increases. We intend to mitigate these risks through long-term fixed interest rate loans and interest rate hedges.

Inflation has had a significant impact in the regions in which the Hospitality segment holds properties, causing a decrease in the willingness of the general population to travel and reduced occupancy, the effect of which may continue to impact the Hospitality segment's operations.

Implications of being a Smaller Reporting Company

As of December 31, 2025, we are a "smaller reporting company" as defined in the Exchange Act, and may elect to take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies.
