INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Owner
Midtown III
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying Statement of Revenue and Direct Costs of Revenues of Midtown III (the “Property”) for the year ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (the “Historical Summary”).
In our opinion, the accompanying Historical Summary presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and direct costs of revenues of the Property for the year ended December 31, 2022, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit of the Historical Summary in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section or our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to Note 2 to the Historical Summary, which describes that the accompanying Historical Summary was prepared for the purposes of complying with certain rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (for inclusion in the Current Report on Form 1-U of 1st stREIT, Inc.) and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the Property’s revenues and direct expenses. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the Historical Summary in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the Historical Summary that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Historical Summary, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Property’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Historical Summary as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we:
| · | Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. |
| · | Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Historical Summary, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the Historical Summary. |
| · | Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Property’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. |
| · | Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the Historical Summary. |
| · | Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Property’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. |
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.

NOTE 1 – HISTORY AND BUSINESS ACTIVITY
In September 2023, 1st stREIT Office Inc. acquired the Midtown III property, a commercial office building located at 571 Monon Blvd, Carmel, IN 46032 (the “Property”) for $17,850,000.
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying statement of revenue and direct costs of revenues (the “Historical Summary”) includes the operations of the Property and has been prepared for the purpose of complying with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Accordingly, the Historical Summary is not representative of the actual operations for the periods presented as revenues, and certain operating expenses, which may not be directly attributable to the revenues and expenses expected to be incurred in the future operations of the Property, have been excluded. Such items include asset management fees, depreciation, amortization, interest expense, interest income, and amortization of above- and below-market leases.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Historical Summary requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results may vary from those estimates.
Revenue
Revenue consists of rental revenue which is earned under the terms of operating leases (net of any incentives given to the lessees) and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contractual length of the agreement. The agreements with tenants contain both lease and non-lease components. The Company applies the practical expedient to combine the lease and nonlease components into a single accounting unit. The non-lease component of the agreements provide for recovery of common maintenance area costs.
Revenue recognition commences when a tenant has the right to use the property under each tenant lease. Payments in advance of scheduled due dates are deferred and reflected as a liability in the balance sheet.
Unaudited Interim Information
The Historical Summary for the period from January 1, 2023 through June 30, 2023 is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Historical Statement (in accordance with the Basis of Presentation as described in Note 2) have been included. The results of operations for the period are not necessarily indicative of the Property’s future results of operations.
NOTE 3 - LEASES
The Property is leased to tenants for various lengths that expire through 2034. The leases also provide renewal options with various terms. Approximately 77% of rental revenue was derived from two tenants during the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period from January 1, 2023 through June 30, 2023 (unaudited).
Revenues for the respective periods consisted of the following:
| | For the period from January 1, 2023 through June 30, 2023 (unaudited) | | | For the year ended December 31, 2022 | |
Lease revenue | | $ | 1,194,786 | | | $ | 2,142,227 | |
Other | | | 177,962 | | | | 294,290 | |
| | $ | 1,372,748 | | | $ | 2,436,517 | |
Other revenue consists of charges for utilities, insurance, real estate taxes and service charges, as set forth in the tenant operating leases. There were no contingent rents recognized as income for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period from January 1, 2023 through June 30, 2023 (unaudited).
Future minimum rentals to be received under noncancelable lease agreements are as follows:
Year Ending December 31: | | | |
2023 | | $ | 2,177,508 | |
2024 | | | 2,272,049 | |
2025 | | | 2,320,567 | |
2026 | | | 2,179,780 | |
2027 | | | 2,187,906 | |
Thereafter | | | 7,328,160 | |
| | $ | 18,465,970 | |
The weighted average remaining lease term of the leases is 7.2 years as of December 31, 2022 and 7.1 years as of June 30, 2023.
NOTE 4 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent events and transactions were evaluated through December 12, 2023, the date on which the Historical Summary was issued. There were no reportable subsequent events or transactions.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Introduction
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is provided to assist in the analysis of the financial aspects of the acquisition as described below. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.”
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet of 1st stREIT Office Inc. at June 30, 2023 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations of 1st stREIT Office Inc. for the periods ended June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 present the combination of financial information of 1st stREIT Office Inc. and Midtown III after giving effect to the acquisition and related adjustments described in the accompanying notes (the “Pro Forma Adjustments”). See the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed combined pro forma financial information for a discussion of assumptions made.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 give pro forma effect to the Pro Forma Transactions as if they occurred on January 1, 2022. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet at June 30, 2023 gives pro forma effect to the Pro Forma Adjustments as if they were completed on June 30, 2023.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared by 1st stREIT Office Inc. management for illustrative purposes only. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are not intended to represent or be indicative of the financial position or results of operations in future periods or the results that actually would have been realized had 1st stREIT Office Inc. and Midtown III been a combined company during the specified periods. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected here due to a variety of factors. The unaudited pro forma adjustments represent management’s estimates based on information available as of the date of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and analyses are performed. However, management believes that the assumptions provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects of the Pro Forma Adjustments as contemplated and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been developed from and should be read in conjunction with:
| · | the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements; |
| | |
| · | 1st stREIT Office Inc.’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the related notes filed with the SEC in the 1-K dated April 18, 2023; |
| | |
| · | 1st stREIT Office Inc.’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the related notes filed with the SEC in the 1-SA dated September 15, 2023; |

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
The acquisition will be accounted for as an asset acquisition in accordance with Financial Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the financial statements of the combined company will represent a continuation of the consolidated financial statements of 1st stREIT Office Inc. (“1st stREIT”) with the estimated consideration and preliminary purchase price allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in its determination of the pro forma adjustments. As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded may differ materially from the information presented.

As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not assume any differences in accounting policies.
Note 3 – Asset Acquisition
On September 28, 2023, 1st stREIT acquired a 77,248 square foot office building located in Carmel, IN for a purchase price of $17.8 million. The acquisition includes an obligation to fund 60% of expenses for an adjacent garage, which is available for use by the tenants of Midtown III as well as a multifamily complex nearby. Jeffrey Karsh, the CEO of 1st stREIT, contributed $17,754,444 of capital to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 2,532,731 non-controlling OP Units at the then current offering price of $7.01 per Unit.
Estimated consideration and preliminary purchase price allocation
1st stREIT has performed a preliminary valuation analysis of the fair market value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Using the total consideration for the acquisition, 1st stREIT has estimated the allocations to such assets and liabilities. The following table summarizes the allocation of the preliminary purchase price as of the transactions closing date, September 28, 2023:
Land | | $ | 2,458,786 | |
Buildings and improvements | | | 15,015,819 | |
Tenant origination and absorption costs | | | 2,337,412 | |
Other assets, net | | | 67,668 | |

Total estimated consideration | | $ | 17,754,437 | |
This preliminary purchase price allocation has been used to prepare the transaction accounting adjustments in the pro forma balance sheet and income statement. The final purchase price allocation will be determined when 1st stREIT has completed the detailed valuations and necessary calculations as described in more detail in the explanatory notes below. The final allocation is expected to be completed when 1st stREIT files its report on Form 1-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and could differ materially from the preliminary allocation used in the transaction accounting adjustments. The final allocation may include (1) changes in the fair values of real estate, net; (2) changes in allocation of intangible assets, such as in-place leases; and (3) other changes to assets and liabilities.
Note 4 – Pro Forma Adjustments
Pro forma adjustments are necessary to reflect the estimated purchase price for the DIF Midtown acquisition, to adjust amounts related to DIF Midtown’s tangible and intangible net assets to the preliminary estimate of their fair value, to reflect the amortization expense related to the estimated amortizable intangible assets and to reflect depreciation related to fair value adjustments to tangible assets.
