NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2023
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Organization
NewLake Capital Partners, Inc. (the “Company”), a Maryland corporation, was formed on April 9, 2019, originally as GreenAcreage Real Estate Corp. (“GARE”). The Company is an internally managed Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) focused on providing long-term, single-tenant, triple-net sale-leaseback and build-to-suit transactions for the cannabis industry. The Company conducts its business through its subsidiary, NLCP Operating Partnership LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership” or “OP”). The Company holds a controlling equity interest in the Operating Partnership and is the sole general partner. The Company's common stock trades on the OTCQX® Best Market operated by the OTC Markets Group, Inc., under the symbol “NLCP”.
Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership, as well as wholly owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership and variable interest entities ("VIEs") in which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. The accompanying unaudited financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. In management's opinion, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been made. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or any future period. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 9, 2023.
Substantially all of the Company's asset are held by and all of its operations are conducted through the Operating Partnership. The Company is the sole managing general partner of the Operating Partnership. Noncontrolling investors in the Operating Partnership are included in Noncontrolling Interest in the Company's consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 8 for details. The Operating Partnership is a VIE because the holders of limited partnership interests do not have substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. Furthermore, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the Operating Partnership because it has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits from the Operating Partnership and the exclusive power to direct the activities of the Operating Partnership. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the assets and liabilities of the Company and the Operating Partnership are substantially the same, as the Company does not have any significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management will adjust such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, useful lives for depreciation of property, the fair value and impairment of property and in-place lease intangibles acquired, and the fair value of stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Reclassification
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the Company's current year presentation.
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no changes to the Company's accounting polices included in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, except as follows:
Property Held for Sale
The Company classifies real estate held for sale when the following criteria are met: (i) management commits to a plan to sell the property, (ii) the property is available for sale, (iii) the property is actively being marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable, (iv) the sale of the property within one year is considered probable, and (v) significant change to the plan to sell the property is not expected. A real estate asset held for sale is classified as "Property Held for Sale" in the consolidated balance sheets. A property classified as held for sale is no longer depreciated and is required to be reported at the lower of its carrying value or its fair value less cost to sell.
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") ASC 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("CECL") on January 1, 2023, which did not have a material impact to its financial statements. The CECL expected loss model requires an allowance for all expected credit losses for the life of a loan be recognized when the loan is either originated or acquired. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from, or added to, the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net amount expected to be collected on the financial asset(s). At each reporting period, the company will update its estimate and adjust the allowance for credit losses accordingly. Increases in the allowance are recorded through net income as credit loss expense. Decreases in the allowance are recorded through net income as a reversal of credit loss expense. This standard does not specify a specific measurement technique for estimating expected credit losses. Approaches can vary based on a variety of factors. The Company generally uses a discounted cash flow model approach to determine the credit loss, if any, for its financial instruments subject to the CECL guidance.

As Lessor
The Company's properties are leased to single tenants on a long-term, triple-net basis, which obligates the tenant to be responsible for the ongoing expenses of a property, in addition to its rent obligations. Under certain circumstances the Company will pay for certain expenses on behalf of the tenant and the tenant is required to reimburse the Company. The presentation in the statements of operations for these expenses are gross where the Company records revenue and a corresponding reimbursable expense. Expenses paid directly by a tenant are not reimbursable and therefore not reflected in the statement of operations. The amount may differ due to timing. The revenues associated with the reimbursable expenses were classified in "Fees and Reimbursables" in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022 the reimbursable revenues were $14.5 thousand and $4.9 thousand, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022 the reimbursable revenues were $111.9 thousand, and $138.6 thousand, respectively.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 reimbursable expenses were $228.1 thousand, and $148.4 thousand, respectively.
The Company's tenants operate in the cannabis industry.

Certain leases of the Company also contain a Tenant Improvement Allowance (“TIA”). TIA is generally available to be funded between 12 and 18 months. In some leases, the tenant becomes liable to pay rent as if the full TIA has been funded, even if there are still unfunded commitments. TIA also contains annual increases which generally increase at the same rate as base rent, per the lease agreement. Certain of the Company's leases provide the lessee with a right of first refusal or right of first offer in the event the Company markets the leased property for sale. Two of the Company’s leases that were entered into in December 2019 provide the lessee with a purchase option to

CECL Reserve
The Company adopted CECL on January 1, 2023, which did not have a material impact on its financial statements. The Company has only one $5.0 million unsecured loan (discussed above) subject to this guidance, since originating loans is not a core asset class. Estimating the CECL reserve requires significant judgement and based on the Company's analysis as of September 30, 2023, the reserve was de-minimis.
