H. Michael Schwartz

We posted a strong quarter of growth, highlighted by 17.6% year over year increase in our Funds from Operations as Adjusted per share. Our strong same-store results were driven by our revenue management platform, talented operations and store level teams, growing efficiencies from scale, and effective expense control. Further, our same-store operating margins were 67.3% this quarter, up 150 basis points year over year. These improvements in our core operations led us to increase our 2026 same store NOI guidance and FFOa per share guidance. Additionally, we deployed over $46 million this quarter into accretive on balance sheet acquisitions and bridge capital investments, while also organically reducing our cash flow leverage from the prior quarter. These accomplishments are emblematic of our recently introduced Deca Initiative, the framework that will guide our Company’s growth over the coming years.
