75% of GLA Occupied by Investment Grade Credit Tenants | WALT of 5 Years

Eastgate Crossing benefits from 75% of the GLA occupied by investment-grade national tenants including Kroger (BBB, S&P), Marshalls (A2, Moody’s), Ross (A2, Moody’s), and Dollar Tree (BBB, Moody’s). These investment-grade tenants operate at below-market rents with a weighted average base rent of $9 NNN and a weighted average lease term of 5+ years providing surety of cash flow.

Low Rent Basis Anchors | Strong Sales Volumes and Low Occupancy Costs

Kroger is operating a base rent of $7.70 NNN with recent sales of $52.7mm. These sales are 19% above pre-pandemic volumes and equate to an occupancy cost that is less than 1.4%.
Marshalls is operating at a base rent of $8.50 NNN with recent sales of $9.7mm. These sales are 17% above pre-pandemic volumes and equate to an occupancy cost of 4.4%
JoAnn is operating at a base rent of $9.75 NNN with 2021 sales of $2.1mm. These sales are 8% above pre-pandemic volumes and equate to an occupancy cost of 8.3%

High Tenant Retention and Strong Leasing Demand | 7 Renewals and 2 New Leases

Eastgate Crossing has a high tenant retention rate with 7 renewals the past 2 years including Kroger, Marshalls, JoAnn, and others.
Ownership recently executed a new lease with Ross Dress For Less at a 35% positive rent spread and minimal associated downtime. This is a prime example of national retailer demand for the center and the ability to mark to market existing below-market rents should space come available.
