Operating context

The dividend increase accompanied NETSTREIT’s second-quarter results. The company reported that its portfolio remained fully occupied and continued to generate stable and growing cash flows. It also raised its full-year expectations for adjusted funds from operations per share and net investment activity after what management characterized as solid acquisition activity and a strengthened balance sheet.

Chief Executive Mark Manheimer said the net-lease acquisition market remained favorable for the company’s opportunity set, while citing the health of the portfolio and additional forward equity sales. The company’s quarterly filing also shows that it operates through an umbrella partnership structure and depends substantially on rental income from its real estate portfolio. NETSTREIT’s Form 10-Q
