Lance will start today’s presentation with an overview of the quarter, then hand it off to Clayton for a discussion of financial matters. To close, Lance will return for some final remarks and we will open it up for your questions. With that, let me turn the call over to Lance.

Lance Parker: Thanks for the introduction, Aja. Great job. And to everyone joining us, Aloha. Last quarter, I highlighted four areas of focus with the company; operational excellence, balance sheet strength and flexibility, streamlining our business and cost structure, and finally growth. We made progress on all fronts in the third quarter. Operationally, the portfolio performed well. Year-over-year FFO was higher, supported by favorable NOI and strong leasing activity. Turning to our balance sheet, we entered into a new ATM program providing an important tool to access capital when appropriate and in October we recast our credit facility, extending the maturity of our revolver to 2028. As we announced on our last call, we closed on the sale of 81 acres of land in July, providing us with additional liquidity and an opportunity to streamline our operations.

From a growth perspective, we closed on the off market acquisition of an 81,500 square foot industrial asset on Oahu for $29.7 million at a going in cap rate of 5.4%. The acquisition provided us with an opportunity to recycle capital from Waipouli Town Center, which we sold earlier this week, and other non-income producing assets. As a result of this transaction and the uptick in volume of deals we are seeing, I’m encouraged about our investment prospects going forward. With these accomplishments, we are again raising our full year guidance. Let me share more details from the quarter starting with our portfolio. Total NOI grew by 4.4%, same-store NOI grew by 4.1% and same-store NOI, excluding collections of prior year reserves grew at 4.7%.

Thanks to Asia and the rest of the leasing team, we executed 71 leases in our improved property portfolio representing more than 182,000 square feet of GLA with blended spreads of 15.3% on a comparable basis, driven primarily by an anchor renewal at Queens’ Marketplace. Our same-store leased occupancy was 94.8% flat from last quarter and 80 basis points lower from the same period last year. Same-store economic occupancy at quarter end was 93.7%, also flat from last quarter and 10 basis points lower than the same period last year. SNO at quarter end was $1.9 million flat compared to last quarter and $1.1 million lower than last year. I should mention that our SNO does not include about $1 million of AVR related to our build to suit at Maui Business Park, which will be added to SNO when we begin construction early next year.

On the macroeconomic front, recently published economic data in Hawaii shows personal income growth at 5.5%. Unemployment at the end of August was 2.9% compared to the national average of 4.2% and the 10th lowest in the country. Looking ahead, Hawaii’s GDP growth is forecasted to be 2% in 2025 compared to the U.S. average of 1.8%. August year-to-date, visitor arrivals were down 2.2% compared to 2023, driven primarily by the lingering effects of the Maui wildfires and currently at 88% of 2019 levels. As a reminder, 2019 represented a high water mark in terms of visitor arrivals to Hawaii. With that, I’ll turn the call over to Clayton. Clayton?

Clayton Chun: Thanks Lance, and Aloha everyone. Starting with our consolidated metrics for the third quarter, FFO was $28.2 million or $0.39 per share as compared to $21.2 million or $0.29 per share in the same quarter last year. Included within FFO was $0.28 per share related to CRE and corporate and that compares to $0.25 per share for the third quarter of 2023. The increase in CRE and corporate-related FFO was driven primarily by stronger CRE performance. FFO related to land operations was $0.11 per share during the third quarter of 2024 as compared to $0.04 per share in the same quarter last year. The higher land operations FFO in the quarter is due primarily to the sale of 81 acres of non-core land that Lance noted earlier and higher income from a legacy joint venture.

AFFO was $23.4 million or $0.32 per share for the third quarter of 2024. This compares to $17.4 million or $0.24 per share in the same period last year. Each of these metrics for the third quarter of 2024 benefited from collections of prior year reserves of approximately $300,000 or a penny per share versus $500,000 in the third quarter of 2023. G&A expenses decreased by $200,000 or 1.7% to $7.4 million as compared to the third of 2023. Last quarter we indicated that we expected 2024 G&A to be in the range of $29.5 million to $31.5 million. As a result of our continued focus and progress made to simplify and streamline our cost structure, we now expect our 2024 G&A to be within a range of $29 million and $30.5 million. Turning to our balance sheet and liquidity metrics, at quarter end, total debt outstanding was $472 million and we had total liquidity of $446 million made up of approximately $18 million of cash and $428 million available on our revolving credit facility including the effect of our interest rate swaps, 96.8% of our debt was at fixed rates and we ended the quarter with a weighted average interest rate of 4.58%.

Net debt to adjusted EBITDA was 3.6 times compared to 4.2 times at 2023 year end, and this primarily reflects higher operating profit in land operations and lower G&A over the 12-month comparable period. With respect to our dividend, we paid a third quarter dividend of $0.2225 per share on October 7. Consistent with our normal practice, we expect our board to declare a fourth quarter dividend in December. As mentioned in our second quarter earnings call, we put into place a $200 million ATM program in August that replaced our previously existing facility. We did not sell any shares under our new ATM program during the third quarter. The ATM program provides us with the ability to efficiently access the capital markets and together with our existing share authorization represents an important capital allocation tool in our capital allocation toolkit.

Last week we completed a recast of our revolving credit facility which extends the maturity of our revolver to October of 2028 with two six month extensions and it provides $450 million of borrowing capacity. Important to note is that we maintain the same pricing grid as our previous agreements. I should also mention that we have a $73 million mortgage secured by Pearl Highland center that matures in December. We intend to use availability on our revolver to pay off the mortgage and we have a seven year forward starting interest rate swap with a $73 million notion amount that will fix the interest at an effective rate of 4.73%. When factoring in the impact of the revolver recast as well as the planned payoff of the Pearl Highlands mortgage including the effect of the interest rate swap, we will have 97% of our debt fixed at a weighted average interest rate of 4.7%.

We’ll have our weighted average maturity extended to 3.9 years and we will continue to have ample liquidity to fund our internal and external growth activity. As Lance mentioned, based upon our performance in the third quarter and our improved outlook for the remainder of the year, we are again raising our guidance. We now expect our 2024 same-store NOI growth to range between 1.75% and 2.75% and same-store NOI growth excluding reserve reversals to range between 2.25% and 3.15%. The increased same-store NOI guidance reflects the impact of leasing activity, tenant performance and operational efficiencies. It should be noted that also included in our increased same-store NOI guidance is the impact of fourth quarter related vacancies including approximately 50,000 square feet within our industrial portfolio and 13,000 square feet within our office portfolio.

We are actively pursuing, releasing and repositioning options for these assets. While we expect these vacancies to continue into 2025, we are encouraged by the prospects. We are also raising our FFO guidance for the year and now expect 2024 FFO to range between $1.27 per share to $1.35 per share. The improved FFO guidance consists of higher CRE and corporate related FFO ranging from $1.07 to $1.11 per share due primarily to NOI and G&A cost reductions. We are also increasing our land operations FFO guidance to a range of $0.20 to $0.24 per share reflecting earnings from land sales and a legacy joint venture. These are in addition to the 81-acre Kamalani land sale that we mentioned during our second quarter earnings call. Finally, we are also raising our 2024 AFFO guidance to a range of $1.5 to $1.12 per share due primarily to the improvements in FFO.

With that, I will turn the call over to Lance for his closing remarks.

Lance Parker: Thanks Clayton. I am pleased with what we accomplished this quarter and the outlook for the remainder of the year. We achieved strong results in our commercial real estate portfolio, closed on an off market industrial acquisition and have taken steps to ensure that we have ample access to capital markets through our ATM program and extending the maturity on our revolving credit facility. On that note, we’ll now open the call up to questions.

Q&A Session

Operator: [Operator Instructions] One moment please for your first question. Your first question comes from the line of Gaurav Mehta from Alliance Global Partners. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Gaurav Mehta: Yes, thank you. I wanted to ask you on your new and renewal rent spreads that came in higher than last few quarters. Just hoping to get some more color on what you were seeing on that front.

Kit Millan: Sure, no problem. This is Kit Millan here. So our leasing team had a really exceptional quarter. And I think a couple things that I want to point out related to leasing is number one, we had 23 new deals, which is the highest we’ve had in a long time. And that’s really pointing to the healthy demand we’re seeing for both retail in line space as well as small bay industrial. In terms of our spreads. As Clayton mentioned, a lot of that large spread this quarter was driven by one deal in particular, which was an anchor deal at Queens Marketplace. And if you back out the impact of that and one other retail deal, the spreads were more consistent with what we’ve been seeing for the balance for the earlier part of the year, in the last part of last year.

Gaurav Mehta: Okay. Second question I wanted to ask you was on the guidance, I think you talked about some expected move outs in 4Q both for industrial and office properties. Hoping to get some more color on those tenants.

Lance Parker: Hey, Gaurav, this is Lance. How are you?

Gaurav Mehta: Good.

Lance Parker: Good. Thanks for joining. It’s really three tenants that are sort of driving that the expected move outs in Q4, so two in the industrial side and one on the office side. On the industrial side. We are expecting to receive back a full floor of our Kakaako Commerce Center. So this is a multi-story building that we have in urban Honolulu. I will note that the floor we’re getting back is more traditional warehouse space. And so we do have some existing prospects that we’re already in dialogue in. Although Clayton did mention that, we, we need to expect these vacancies to carry through into 2025. We’re encouraged by the fact that we’re in conversations before we actually recapture this space. The second one is an industrial over in our Komohana property in Kapolei, West Oahu.

It’s about 16,000 square feet, so a smaller space. Similarly, we’re in discussions for a backfill opportunity, so feel confident about that. And then lastly, we’re getting about 13,000 square feet of office space back at our Kailua office building on the island of Maui. That was a bank that relocated and built a new facility within our Maui business park. We are in conversations with potential backfill tenants there as well. Although just given the, the status of the office market, I would extend, I would expect that there’d be some time for us to backfill that space.

Gaurav Mehta: Okay, thank you. That’s all I had.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Rob Stevenson from Janney. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Rob Stevenson: Hi, Good afternoon, guys. Lance, can you talk a little bit about the proceeds from the. I’m going to butcher this Waipouli Town Center disposition and was there any notable expense drag given the vacancy there that now goes away and positively impacts you in addition to the proceeds there?

Lance Parker: Hey Rob, thanks for the question. And first off, you nailed the pronunciation. So great job on Waipouli, I will say. That was a, I think a unique opportunity for us to recycle out of that asset. It was underperforming, place it into a very strategic off market industrial deal. So it’s a good use of the proceeds. And I guess with regards specific to your question, I’ll kick this over to Kit on if there was any drag on the expenses.

Kit Millan: So what I would say is given the occupancy at that property, obviously there was quite a bit of cam leakage since we lost our major anchor there a couple of years ago. So in that sense it does eliminate some of the drag on the overall portfolio.

Rob Stevenson: I guess. Clayton, is that material that’s something that positively impacted the increase in guidance or was it sort of non-material given that asset?

Clayton Chun: Yes. So as far as Waipouli itself, the way that we had viewed the disposition was that it was tied to our acquisition that we had announced earlier, the cold storage industrial facility. And so effectively this was a recycling of capital opportunity for us that we viewed. At the end of the day, it was accretive. And so that was part of our thesis for doing that deal.

Rob Stevenson: Okay, what does the acquisition pipeline look like today? Are you guys seeing any pickup in people willing to sell assets across the islands? Is it still hunting for needles in the haystack? How are you guys sort of viewing the transactional market these days relative to where it’s been?

Clayton Chun: Yes, I’d say specific to the points you raised. It’s a little bit of both, Rob, but I’m certainly more encouraged by the looks that we’re getting. I made some comments earlier last quarter about the fact that we were seeing more deals at the top of the funnel that has continued through Q3. We were obviously able to execute on the 82,000 square foot industrial deal that we did. And while I would say that our improved guidance for the remainder of the year does not contemplate any additional acquisitions, I remain encouraged that just based on what we’re seeing at the top of the funnel that we’ll be able to find some opportunities, if not this year, heading into next year.

Rob Stevenson: Okay. And then on the leasing front at this point, are there any meaningful 2025 leases that are known move outs that we need to be thinking about as we update models following earnings here?

Lance Parker: No, we did, we did want to provide just the visibility into the move outs that we expect to occur this quarter and head into 2025. But as we look into the year, just we have all this information in our supplement. We’ve got about 10% of roll anticipated from a GLA basis and about the same on an ABR basis. That’s including the comments we made about those three vacancies. We’ve got an overall Walt [ph] of about six years on the portfolio. So feeling pretty good about 2025.

Rob Stevenson: Okay, and then I guess last one. On the 35,000 square feet of new leases in the quarter, how should we be thinking about when the bulk of that sort of starts producing revenue? When you get a tenant in there, is that a sort of thinking about it as like a 6 month lag, a 9 month lag? How should we be thinking of that, in terms of build out or anything else that you have to do before those tenants can take over that space and start paying revenue?

Lance Parker: That’s a very good question. Let me start with the industrial side because the industrial side is a lot easier to predict. So industrial build outs don’t tend to take very long. Not a lot of permit work in general. We can often turn on industrial right away, but within six months is the typical timeframe. Retail, it really depends on the type of space. If it’s a restaurant space with quite a bit of work, quite a bit of permitted work, it can actually take up to 3/4 of a year or 12 months to turn on the rent. So it really just depends on the retail side. If it’s a regular inline retail with a minor build out, in some cases, we can turn on the rent in three to six months.

Rob Stevenson: Okay, that’s helpful. Thanks guys. Appreciate the time tonight.

Lance Parker: Thanks. Rob.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Alexander Goldfarb from Piper Sandler. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Alexander Goldfarb: Hey, I guess good day. Good morning out there. So just two questions. First, sort of circling back to Rob’s question. As we think about the ATM, it doesn’t sound like you’re using the ATM for balance sheet purposes because you didn’t talk about it to be used for the Pearl Highland to pay that off. And it also sounds like the acquisition market remains tough. So just patience seems to be the message. So how do we think, or how do you guys think about the ATM? Is this something that you would use like 20 million at a pop, or is this more of an implement that if you were to come across, let’s say a large portfolio, you would use the ATM, but otherwise one-off acquisitions are probably going to be funded via asset sales or land sales or something of that sort.

Clayton Chun: Yes. Hi, Alex, this is Clayton. So for the ATM, you’re right that we did not draw on the ATM or utilize the ATM for the third quarter. And that includes for purposes of our refinancing activities that occurred as well. The way that we look at the ATM, it’s effectively a tool in our capital allocation toolkit. And so to the extent that there’s opportunities in the market that arise, we will consider the ATM as a source of financing. But we’re going to evaluate the different options, which includes financing it by way of debt. To the extent that our stock is trading at a level where it makes sense for us to utilize the ATM, we’re not going to hesitate to do so.

Alexander Goldfarb: Okay, and then the second question is, everyone, every analyst, fun question around this time of year is 2025. Obviously you’ve been bringing up numbers this year, looking at the core business, let’s call it $1.10, to use an even number is $1.10, sort of the base that we should think about 2025 and then obviously some expectation of growth. Or should we be assuming that there will be some element of land in next year such that. I don’t know if it’s $0.05, $0.10, maybe it’s more, I don’t know. But how do we think about next year from sort of a base operations and then the above and beyond? Because they also think, you guys have spoken previously, that if you exit land entirely, there’s like 4 or 5 million of G&A that goes away that’s associated with land, which would also sound like that would be a benefit to the base FFO, if you will.

Clayton Chun: Yes, so I’ll take that. This is Clayton again. So with respect to the 2025 guidance, Alex, we’re not in a position to provide guidance on this call. I think the comment that you are bringing up with respect to land operations and the fact that it is influenced by episodic land sales, that does continue to remain true. And so, I guess I’ll leave it at that. But we’re not providing guidance on this call for either land operations or any parts of the company’s results.

Alexander Goldfarb: Okay. But Clayton, I guess as you sit here today looking till the end of the year, it doesn’t sound like you’re going to exit land. So there will still be some land in next year is what it sounds like. It doesn’t sound like you’re fully exiting by this year. It sounds like they’re be some carryover into next year that should generate some sort of contribution.

Clayton Chun: So the way that we’ve reported our results for land operations, if we were to exit it, it would be presented in our financial statements as discontinued operations, which it’s not. And so from that perspective, it’s, we’re not planning at this point to have an exit of that entire part of the business. So one way to think about it, Alex, might be, is that there will continue to be a land ops heading into 2025 and therefore there could be opportunity from an FFO perspective. But again, we’re going to stop short of signaling or providing any guidance in terms of what we expect that to be like for next year.

Alexander Goldfarb: Yes, no, I understand we have to wait, but I’m just trying to think about how you guys are positioned heading into next year. In addition, you have funding potential from continued land sales. Thank you

Clayton Chun: And I will add that that remains a priority for us because we do recognize while there is opportunity remaining in that section of the business, there are also costs embedded in that section of the business. And so this is not something that’s a back burner issue for us. We will continue to monetize and provide liquidity for reinvestment, but also, quite frankly, driving down the cost structure.

Alexander Goldfarb: Thank you.

Aja Shimamura: Hi, operator. Do we have any other questions on the line?

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Mitch Germain from Citizens JMP. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Mitch Germain: Thanks. Lance when you look at your congrats on the deal this quarter, when you look at your pipeline, does it look similar to what you acquired? That is like the last couple deals with industrial, or are you seeing some opportunities in the shopping center arena as well?

Lance Parker: Hey, Mitch. I’d say the additional encouraging part for me is that we’re seeing a little bit of everything. And I would also add that similar to comments that we’ve shared in the past, we don’t have a specific allocation or target across our specific asset classes. It’s really going to be opportunistic. And so just the fact that we’re getting more looks over the last two quarters, again, I think is a good sign we’re starting to see not just for us, but there has been additional activity in the market. So these are all positive indicators heading or looking forward.

Mitch Germain: Okay, that’s super helpful. Last one for me. Everything else has been asked. When I consider your same-store, you’re referencing three move outs. But if I kind of think you guys are 3ish percent of the year, it seems like there’s some conservatism baked into that number. Or will those move outs have that meaningful impact on same-store growth in the fourth quarter?

Lance Parker: I’ll answer this at a high level and then open it up to either Clayton or Kit if they want to provide some additional color. We stated at the end of, or I should say at the beginning of the year that we were expecting some episodic results in CRE quarter-to-quarter and that we were really trying to focus on full year guidance. So implied in the numbers would suggest a bit of a slowdown for Q4 and that’s consistent with our expectations. But again, given full year or year-to-date performance, we felt comfortable enough to raise full year guidance.

Clayton Chun: Yes. And if I could just add on. Hi Mitch, this is Clayton. The same-store NOI guidance for the fourth quarter. It’s also taking into account the results from last year’s fourth quarter where there were some non-recurring type of benefits that contributed to our overall same-store NOI expectations going into Q4.

Mitch Germain: Got you, got you. But then Clayton.

Clayton Chun: Yes, go ahead.

Mitch Germain: No, it’s good. That’s perfect. That’s exactly what I needed. And then how should I consider like a clean FFO number for the quarter, kind of backing out like the what we characterize to be somewhat nonrecurring items in the land bucket, what’s, what’s kind of a clean FFO number for the quarter here.

Lance Parker: Yes. So Mitch, when we think about FFO, we’ve been intentional in presenting the bifurcation of our FFO between the CRE corporate and land operations, recognizing that the land operations business has episodic results. And so for purposes of stripping out those onetime FFO related to land sales itself, you would get to the CRE corporate where we did. And I guess that’s the way to think about it in terms of, consistent FFO going forward.

Mitch Germain: Got you. I guess I was kind of thinking your full year number included some land contribution. So I was, I was almost thinking, taking that into account how much other contribution, was gain related. If you know what I mean.

Lance Parker: I wasn’t quite following that.

Mitch Germain: Yes, okay, thanks.

Lance Parker: Thanks, Mitch.

Operator: [Operator Instructions] So your next question comes from the line of Brendan McCarthy from Sidoti. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.

Brendan McCarthy: Great, thanks. Hey, Clayton. Hey, Lance. Thanks for taking these questions. Just wanted to ask if you can provide some additional color on that legacy joint venture that had an impact in the LandOps segment this quarter.

Clayton Chun: Yes, Hi, Brendan, it’s Clayton. So the joint venture is an investment that was made a while back, going on like 10 years or so. So this is before we had converted to a REIT. And so it’s a passive investment that we have. And frankly at this point, it’s really not required much in the way of management time, nor does it require has it resulted in any contributions from a cash flow perspective.

Brendan McCarthy: Got it. Thanks, Clayton. And I guess looking out to or looking at the updated 24 guidance, that guidance obviously assumes very minimal, if any, benefit from that investment in Q4.

Clayton Chun: Yes. So for the fourth quarter guidance, that or the full year guidance, it does incorporate the fourth quarter, for which for land operations as a whole, we were expecting that to be break even, more or less.

Brendan McCarthy: Okay. Okay. And I wanted to look at SG&A. Can you just remind us where these efficiency improvements have come from and I guess what really drove the expected change for the total amount for 2024?

Clayton Chun: Yes. So as we had mentioned on previous calls, G&A as well as our overall cost structure continues to remain a priority. And we’ve been focusing on seeking improvements to enable us to lower our overall run rate, G&A and otherwise. And so what we’re seeing is the benefits of the implementation of various process improvements and frankly, the simplification of the overall company itself. So it’s a combination of a number of different types of cost categories, whether that’s personnel, consultants and the like.

Brendan McCarthy: Great, thanks for that. That’s helpful. And I’ll ask one more question. Just on the Pearl Highlands asset, the mortgage coming due, can you walk us through the decision to kind of utilize the revolver there? And was that always the plan or were there kind of different financing conversations had.

Clayton Chun: Yes. So as we were considering the Pearl Highlands mortgage that’s maturing in December, we were evaluating different options. Ultimately, we had settled with utilizing the revolver to refinance it. And that was taking into account a forward starting interest rate swap that we have. And so our strategy was to utilize the swap that had a notional amount of or has a notional amount of 73 million. And it effectively enables us to lock in the interest rate at a fixed rate of 4.73%. So we feel comfortable about utilizing the revolver to match that up with the swap. And so that’s effectively how we got to the conclusion.

Brendan McCarthy: Great. Thanks, Clayton. That’s all for me. Thanks, everybody.

Clayton Chun: Thanks, Brendan.
