MILL VALLEY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Four Corners Property Trust, Inc. (“FCPT” or the “Company”, NYSE: FCPT) today announced financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026.

Management Comments

“We acquired more than $326 million in net lease properties during the quarter. This volume was a record for FCPT and was funded entirely with low-cost debt. This summer, we also successfully refinanced and upsized our credit facility to significantly extend our maturity profile. As expected, we also recently extended 100% of Olive Garden and LongHorn leases maturing in 2027 without landlord concessions,” said Bill Lenehan, Chief Executive Officer. “Our portfolio is in great shape, and as we look forward, we remain as focused as ever on accretive capital allocation. As such and given current market conditions, we have announced our inaugural share repurchase program. At the current share price, we view share repurchases as delivering more value than property purchases. That said, we have started to see new acquisitions being priced at higher cap rates. We will continue to modulate our capital allocation decisions to maximize shareholder value creation.”

Rent Collection Update

As of September 30, 2026, the Company has received rent payments representing 99.7% of its portfolio contractual base rent for the quarter ending September 30, 2026.

Equity Activity

• FCPT’s Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program that would allow FCPT to purchase up to $100 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The share repurchase program does not obligate FCPT to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion.

• During the third quarter, the Company did not sell shares of Common Stock via the at-the-market (ATM) program.

• Year-to-date through October 28, 2026, FCPT has not sold shares of Common Stock via the ATM program and no shares remain to be settled under existing forward sale agreements.

Credit Facilities and Unsecured Notes

• On September 30, 2026, FCPT had $1,585 million of outstanding debt, consisting of $960 million of term loans, $625 million of unsecured fixed rate notes and no outstanding revolver balance. FCPT’s leverage, as measured by the ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDAre, was 6.0x at quarter-end.

• On July 28, 2026, FCPT entered into a Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement with a group of existing and new lenders. The amendment increased the overall size of the facility from $940 million to $1.15 billion by entering into a new $400 million term loan that matures in August 2031. At closing, $190 million of the term loan was used to pay down loans maturing in November 2026 and February 2027. The remaining $210 million was expected to fund investments and other general corporate purposes. As of September 30, 2026, $40 million of the term loan remained undrawn and is expected to be drawn by the end of Q4 2026.

• As part of this amendment, FCPT's lenders agreed to improved credit margin spreads under the Credit Agreement. Based on FCPT’s current investment grade ratings of BBB/Baa3 (Fitch/Moody’s), FCPT's interest expense for the $800 million of term loans in the subject facility is SOFR + 0.90% and SOFR + 0.85% for revolving borrowings. Additionally, FCPT’s lenders agreed to extend the maturity of Tranche A-5 ($85 million) to March 2028 and provide an additional one-year extension option to the same tranche at the Company’s discretion, subject to certain conditions. The adjustments to credit margin spreads for this facility do not impact the $200 million 7-year Term Loan facility announced in Q2 2026. Please see our supplemental for the detailed debt schedule.
