Most Recent Transaction Price and Net Asset Value Per Share
February 1, 2025 Transaction Price
The transaction price for each of our share classes is equal to such share class’s NAV per share as of December 31, 2024. A calculation of the NAV per share is set forth below.
December 31, 2024 NAV Per Share
Our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, has adopted valuation procedures, as amended from time to time, that contain a comprehensive set of methodologies to be used in connection with the calculation of our NAV. Our most recent NAV per share for each share class, which is updated as of the last calendar day of each month, is posted on our website at www.areswmsresources.com/investment-solutions/AIREIT and is also available on our toll-free, automated telephone line at (888) 310-9352. With the approval of our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, we have engaged Altus Group U.S. Inc., a third-party valuation firm, to serve as our independent valuation advisor (“Altus Group” or the “Independent Valuation Advisor”) with respect to helping us administer the valuation and review process for the real properties in our portfolio, providing monthly real property appraisals and valuations for certain of our debt-related assets, reviewing annual third-party real property appraisals, reviewing the internal valuations of loans (“DST Program Loans”) provided to certain investors in our program to raise capital in private placements exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, through the sale of beneficial interests (“DST Interests”) in specific Delaware statutory trusts holding real properties, including properties currently indirectly owned by our operating partnership (the “DST Program”), and debt-related liabilities performed by Ares Commercial Real Estate Management LLC (our “Advisor”), providing quarterly valuations of our properties subject to master lease obligations associated with the DST Program, and assisting in the development and review of our valuation procedures.
As used below, “Fund Interests” means our outstanding shares of common stock, along with the partnership units in our operating partnership (“OP Units”), which may be or were held directly or indirectly by the Advisor, our former sponsor, members or affiliates of our former sponsor, and third parties, and “Aggregate Fund NAV” means the NAV of all the Fund Interests.

NAV per Fund Interest is not presented for Class D-PR shares as of November 30, 2024 and December 31, 2024 because we had no Class D-PR shares outstanding as of such dates.
Under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we record liabilities for ongoing distribution fees that we estimate we may pay in future periods for the Fund Interests. As of December 31, 2024, we estimated approximately $110.1 million of ongoing distribution fees were potentially payable. We do not deduct the liability for estimated future distribution fees in our calculation of NAV since we intend for our NAV to reflect our estimated value on the date that we determine our NAV. Accordingly, our estimated NAV at any given time does not include consideration of any estimated future distribution fees that may become payable after such date.
We include no discounts to our NAV for the illiquid nature of our shares, including the limitations on our stockholders’ ability to redeem shares under our share redemption program and our ability to make exceptions to, modify or suspend our share redemption program at any time. Our NAV generally does not reflect the potential impact of exit costs (e.g. selling costs and commissions related to the sale of a property) that would likely be incurred if our assets and liabilities were liquidated or sold today. While we may use market pricing concepts to value individual components of our NAV, our per share NAV is not derived from the market pricing information of open-end real estate funds listed on stock exchanges.
Our NAV is not a representation, warranty or guarantee that: (i) we would fully realize our NAV upon a sale of our assets; (ii) shares of our common stock would trade at our per share NAV on a national securities exchange; and (iii) a stockholder would be able to realize the per share NAV if such stockholder attempted to sell his or her shares to a third party.
The valuations of our real properties as of December 31, 2024, excluding certain newly acquired properties that are currently held at cost which we believe reflects the fair value of such properties, were provided by the Independent Valuation Advisor in accordance with our valuation procedures. Certain key assumptions that were used by the Independent Valuation Advisor in the discounted cash flow analysis are set forth in the following table:
| | | |
|
| Weighted- |
|
| | Average Basis | |
Exit capitalization rate |
| 5.7 | % |
Discount rate / internal rate of return |
| 7.4 | % |
Average holding period (years) |
| 10.1 | |
A change in the exit capitalization and discount rates used would impact the calculation of the value of our real property. For example, assuming all other factors remain constant, the changes listed below would result in the following effects on the value of our real properties, excluding certain newly acquired properties that are currently held at cost which we believe reflects the fair value of such properties:

Distributions
We authorized monthly gross distributions for each class of shares of our common stock in the amount of $0.05 per share for the month of December 2024. These distributions were paid to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 31, 2024, net of, as applicable, distribution fees that are payable monthly with respect to certain classes of shares of our common stock.
Update on Our Assets and Activities
As of December 31, 2024, we directly owned and managed a real estate portfolio that included 255 industrial buildings totaling approximately 54.7 million square feet located in 30 markets throughout the U.S., with 424 customers, and was 92.6% occupied (94.6% leased) with a weighted-average remaining lease term (based on square feet) of 3.8 years. The occupied rate reflects the square footage with a paying customer in place. The leased rate includes the occupied square footage and additional square footage with leases in place that have not yet commenced.
As of December 31, 2024, our leverage ratio was approximately 45.8% (calculated as outstanding principal balance of our borrowings, including secured financings on investments in real estate-related securities, less cash and cash equivalents, divided by the fair value of our real property, our net investments in our unconsolidated joint venture partnerships, investments in real estate-related securities and debt-related investments not associated with the DST Program, as determined in accordance with our valuation procedures) and the weighted-average interest rate of our consolidated borrowings was 4.52%.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2024, we raised gross proceeds of approximately $90.5 million, including proceeds from our distribution reinvestment plan and the sale of DST Interests (including $0.4 million of DST Interests financed by DST Program Loans). The aggregate dollar amount of common stock and OP Unit redemptions requested for October, November and December, which were redeemed in full on November 1, 2024, December 1, 2024 and January 1, 2025, respectively, was $64.0 million.
Update on Real Properties
As of December 31, 2024 our real estate portfolio included:
| ● | 252 industrial buildings totaling approximately 54.4 million square feet comprised our operating portfolio, which includes stabilized properties, and was 93.1% occupied (95.0% leased) with a weighted-average remaining lease term (based on square feet) of approximately 3.8 years; and |
| ● | Three industrial buildings totaling approximately 0.3 million square feet comprised our value-add portfolio, which includes buildings acquired with the intention to reposition or redevelop, or buildings recently completed which have not yet reached stabilization. We generally consider a building to be stabilized on the earlier to occur of the first anniversary of a building’s shell completion or a building achieving 90% occupancy. |
Additionally, as of December 31, 2024, we owned and managed one building in the pre-construction phase totaling approximately 0.1 million square feet. Unless otherwise noted, this building is excluded from the presentation of our portfolio data herein.
During the trailing 12 months ended December 31, 2024, we transacted approximately 5.8 million square feet of new and renewal leases, and rent growth on comparable leases averaged 61.4%, calculated using cash basis rental rates (76.9% when calculated using GAAP basis rental rates). As of December 31, 2024, rents across our portfolio were estimated to be 23.4% below market (on a weighted-average basis).
Acquisitions. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we acquired six industrial buildings for an aggregate contractual purchase price of $212.4 million. Additionally, we completed the development of one building totaling approximately 0.1 million square feet.
4
Building Types. Our industrial buildings consist primarily of warehouse distribution facilities suitable for single or multiple customers. The following table summarizes our portfolio by building type as of December 31, 2024:
| | | | | |
Building Type | | Description | | Percent of Rentable Square Feet | |
Bulk distribution | | Building size of 150,000 to over 1 million square feet, single or multi-customer | | 81.4 | % |
Light industrial | | Building size of less than 150,000 square feet, single or multi-customer | | 18.5 | |
Flex industrial | | Includes assembly or research and development, primarily multi-customer | | 0.1 | |
| | | | 100.0 | % |
Portfolio Overview and Market Diversification. As of December 31, 2024, the average effective annual rent of our total real estate portfolio (calculated by dividing total annualized base rent, which includes the impact of any contractual tenant concessions (cash basis), by total occupied square footage) was approximately $7.17 per square foot.

Lease Terms. Substantially all of our industrial properties are subject to leases on a “triple net basis,” in which customers pay their proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance, and certain other operating costs. In addition, most of our leases include fixed rental increases or Consumer Price Index-based rental increases. Lease terms typically range from one to 10 years and often include renewal options.
Lease Expirations. As of December 31, 2024, the weighted-average remaining lease term (based on square feet) of our total occupied portfolio was approximately 3.8 years, excluding renewal options. The following table summarizes the lease expirations of our occupied portfolio for leases in place as of December 31, 2024, without giving effect to the exercise of renewal options or termination rights, if any:

Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K includes certain statements that are intended to be deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of, and to be covered by the safe harbor provisions contained in, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by the use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” “project,” “continue,” or other similar words or terms and include, without limitation, statements regarding the estimates and assumptions used in the calculation of our NAV per Fund Interest. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Among the factors that may cause results to vary are the negative impact of increased inflation, changes in interest rates, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and/or the ongoing conflict in the Middle East on our financial condition and results of operations being more significant than expected, general economic and business (particularly real estate and capital market) conditions being less favorable than expected, the business opportunities that may be presented to and pursued by us, changes in laws or regulations (including changes to laws governing the taxation of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”)), risk of acquisitions, availability and creditworthiness of prospective customers, availability of capital (debt and equity), interest rate fluctuations, competition, supply and demand for properties in current and any proposed market areas in which we invest, our customers’ ability and willingness to pay rent at current or increased levels, accounting principles, policies and guidelines applicable to REITs, environmental, regulatory and/or safety requirements, customer bankruptcies and defaults, the availability and cost of comprehensive insurance, including coverage for terrorist acts, and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. For a further discussion of these factors and other risk factors that could lead to actual results materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements, see “Risk Factors” under Item 1A of Part 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and subsequent periodic and current reports filed with the SEC. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise.
