SUPPLEMENT NO. 8 DATED NOVEMBER 14, 2023

TO THE PROSPECTUS DATED APRIL 17, 2023

This prospectus supplement (the “Supplement”) is part of and should be read in conjunction with the prospectus of Nuveen Global Cities REIT, Inc., dated April 17, 2023 (the “Prospectus”). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Supplement shall have the same meanings as in the Prospectus.

The purposes of this Supplement are as follows:

• to disclose the transaction price for each class of our common stock as of December 1, 2023;

• to disclose the calculation of our October 31, 2023 net asset value (“NAV”) per share for each class of our common stock;

• to provide an update on the status of our offering;

• to update the “Experts” section of the Prospectus; and

• to include our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023.

December 1, 2023 Transaction Price

The transaction price for each share class of our common stock for subscriptions accepted as of December 1, 2023 (and repurchases as of November 30, 2023) is as follows:

	Transaction Price (per share)
Class T	$	12.08
Class S	$	11.95
Class D	$	12.11
Class I	$	12.06

The transaction price for each of our Class T, Class S, Class D and Class I shares is equal to such class’s NAV per share as of October 31, 2023. A detailed presentation of the NAV per share is set forth below.

The purchase price of our common stock for each share class equals the transaction price of such class, plus applicable upfront selling commissions and dealer manager fees. 

October 31, 2023 NAV Per Share

We calculate NAV per share in accordance with the valuation guidelines that have been approved by our board of directors. Our NAV per share, which is updated as of the last calendar day of each month, is posted on our website at www.nuveenglobalreit.com. Please refer to “Net Asset Value Calculation and Valuation Guidelines” in the Prospectus for information on how our NAV is determined. The Advisor is ultimately responsible for determining our NAV. Our properties have been appraised and our commercial mortgage loans have been valued in accordance with our valuation guidelines and such appraisals and valuations were prepared by our independent valuation advisor.

VGN-NREIT-1123P

The following table provides a breakdown of the major components of our NAV as of October 31, 2023 ($ and shares in thousands):

Components of NAV	October 31, 2023
Investments in real property	$	2,222,483
Investments in commercial mortgage loans		171,865
Investments in international affiliated funds		114,739
Investments in real estate-related securities		99,550
Investments in real estate debt		97,012
Cash and cash equivalents		42,321
Restricted cash		16,469
Other assets		13,796
Debt obligations		(482,181	)
Other liabilities		(82,612	)
Subscriptions received in advance		(15,516	)
Stockholder servicing fees payable the following month(1)		(565	)
Non-controlling interests in joint venture		(5,388	)
Net Asset Value	$	2,191,973
Net asset value attributable to preferred stock		130
NAV attributable to common stockholders	$	2,191,843
Number of outstanding shares of common stock		180,882

(1) Stockholder servicing fees only apply to Class T, Class S and Class D shares. For purposes of NAV, we recognize the stockholder servicing fee as a reduction of NAV on a monthly basis as such fee is paid. Under GAAP, we accrue the full cost of the stockholder servicing fee as an offering cost at the time we sell Class T, Class S and Class D shares. As of October 31, 2023, we have accrued under GAAP approximately $45.9 million of stockholder servicing fees payable to the Dealer Manager related to the Class T, Class S and Class D shares sold.

The following table provides a breakdown of our total NAV and NAV per share of common stock by share class as of October 31, 2023 ($ and shares in thousands, except per share data):

	Class T Shares		Class S Shares		Class D Shares			Class I Shares		Class N Shares		Total
Net asset value attributable to common stockholders	$	202,972	$	535,480		$	89,334	$	991,122	$	372,935	$	2,191,843
Number of outstanding shares		16,799		44,826			7,377		82,149		29,731		180,882
NAV per share	$	12.08	$	11.95		$	12.11	$	12.06	$	12.54

Set forth below are the weighted averages of the key assumptions in the discounted cash flow methodology used in the October 31, 2023 valuations, based on property types.

Property Type	Discount Rate			Exit Capitalization Rate
Industrial		6.71	%		5.64	%
Multifamily		6.43			5.31
Office		7.56			6.86
Healthcare		7.14			6.22
Retail		6.57			5.75
Self-Storage		7.22			5.40
Single-Family Housing		7.25			5.44

These assumptions are determined by our independent valuation advisor. A change in these assumptions would impact the calculation of the value of our property investments. For example, assuming all other factors remain unchanged, the changes listed below would result in the following effects on our investment values:

Input	Hypothetical Change	Industrial Investment Values			Multifamily Investment Values			Office Investment Values			Healthcare Investment Values			Retail Investment Values			Self- Storage Investment Values			Single- Family Housing Investment Values
Discount Rate	0.25% decrease		2.04	%		1.90	%		1.95	%		1.97	%		1.93	%		1.82	%		1.36	%

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1. Organization and Business Purpose

Nuveen Global Cities REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed on May 1, 2017 as a Maryland corporation and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 2018 and intends to operate in a manner that will allow it to continue to qualify as a REIT. The Company’s sponsor is Nuveen, LLC (the “Sponsor”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (“TIAA”). The Company is the sole general partner of Nuveen Global Cities REIT OP, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Nuveen OP”). Nuveen OP has issued a limited partner interest to Nuveen Global Cities REIT LP, LLC (the “Limited Partner”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company was organized to invest primarily in stabilized income-oriented commercial real estate in the United States and a substantial but lesser portion of the Company’s portfolio will include real properties located in Canada, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through Nuveen OP. The Company and Nuveen OP are externally managed by Nuveen Real Estate Global Cities Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of the Sponsor and an investment advisory affiliate of Nuveen Real Estate.

Pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-222231) (the “IPO Registration Statement”), the Company registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) its initial public offering of up to $5.0 billion in shares of common stock (the “Initial Public Offering”). The IPO Registration Statement was initially declared effective on January 31, 2018 and the Initial Public Offering terminated on July 2, 2021.

On January 13, 2021, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-252077) (the “Follow-on Registration Statement”) to register up to $5.0 billion in shares of common stock, consisting of up to $4.0 billion in shares in its primary offering and up to $1.0 billion in shares pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan (the “Follow-on Public Offering”). The Follow-on Registration Statement was initially declared effective by the SEC on July 2, 2021. In the Follow-on Public Offering, the Company is offering to the public any combination of four classes of shares of its common stock, Class T shares, Class S shares, Class D shares and Class I shares, with a dollar value up to the maximum offering amount. The publicly offered share classes have different upfront selling commissions and ongoing stockholder servicing fees. The purchase price per share for each class of common stock varies and generally equals the Company’s prior month’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share, as calculated monthly, plus applicable upfront selling commissions and dealer manager fees.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had received aggregate net proceeds of $2.2 billion from selling shares in the Initial Public Offering, the Follow-on Public Offering and in unregistered private offerings.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, and in the opinion of management, include all necessary adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring items, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. These financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the related notes thereto, that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 as filed with the SEC. The year-end balance sheet was derived from those audited financial statements.

10

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Company’s subsidiaries and joint ventures in which the Company has a controlling interest.

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company consolidates all entities in which it has a controlling financial interest through majority ownership or voting rights and variable interest entities whereby the Company is the primary beneficiary. In determining whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in a partially owned entity and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, the Company considers whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE when it has (i) the power to direct the most significant activities impacting the economic performance of the VIE and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits significant to the VIE. Entities that do not qualify as VIEs are generally considered voting interest entities (“VOEs”) and are evaluated for consolidation under the voting interest model. VOEs are consolidated when the Company controls the entity through a majority voting interest or other means. When the requirements for consolidation are not met and the Company has significant influence over the operations of the entity, the investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Equity method investments for which the Company has not elected the fair value option (“FVO”) are initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for the Company’s pro-rata share of net income, contributions and distributions. When the Company elects the FVO, the Company records its share of net asset value of the entity and any related unrealized gains and losses.

Each of the Company’s joint ventures is considered to be a VIE or VOE. The Company consolidates these entities because it has the ability to direct the most significant activities of the joint ventures, including unilateral decision-making on the disposition of the investments.

For select joint ventures, the non-controlling partner’s share of the assets, liabilities and operations of each joint venture is included in noncontrolling interests as equity of the Company. The non-controlling partner’s interest is generally computed as the joint venture partner’s ownership percentage. Certain strategic partnerships of the Company provide the other partner a profits interest based on certain internal rate of return hurdles being achieved. Any profits interest due to the other partner is reported within redeemable non-controlling interests.

As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the total assets and liabilities of the Company’s consolidated VIEs were $49.8 million and $30.4 million, and $51.2 million and $30.2 million, respectively. Such amounts are included on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company has limited contractual rights to obtain the financial records of certain of its consolidated single-family housing, retail, student housing, self-storage and direct international portfolios from the operating partner. The operating partner does not prepare separate GAAP financial statements; therefore, the Company compiles GAAP financial information for the portfolios based on reports prepared by and received from the operating partner. Such reports are not available to the Company until approximately 20 days after the end of any given period. As a result, these activities are generally included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements on a one-month lag; however, any significant activity that occurs in the final month of the quarter is recorded in that period.

Investments in Real Estate

In accordance with the guidance for business combinations, the Company determines whether the acquisition of a property qualifies as a business combination, which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. If the property acquired is not a business, the Company accounts for the transaction as an asset acquisition. All property acquisitions to date have been accounted for as asset acquisitions.

11

Whether the acquisition of a property acquired is considered a business combination or asset acquisition, the Company recognizes the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity. In addition, for transactions that will be considered business combinations, the Company will evaluate the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. The Company expenses acquisition-related costs associated with business combinations as they are incurred. The Company capitalizes acquisition-related costs associated with asset acquisitions.

Upon acquisition of a property, the Company assesses the fair value of acquired tangible and intangible assets (including land, buildings, tenant improvements, above-market and below-market leases, acquired in-place leases, other identified intangible assets and assumed liabilities) and allocates the purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The Company assesses and considers fair value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize discount or capitalization rates that it deems appropriate, as well as other available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known and anticipated trends and market and economic conditions.

The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant. The Company also considers an allocation of purchase price of other acquired intangibles, including acquired in-place leases that may have a customer relationship intangible value, including but not limited to the nature and extent of the existing relationship with the tenants, the tenants’ credit quality and expectations of lease renewals. Based on its acquisitions to date, the Company’s allocation to customer relationship intangible assets has not been material.

The Company records acquired above-market and below-market leases at their fair values (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) equal to the difference between (1) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (2) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases. Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values that are based on the Company’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease. Factors to be considered include estimates of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, the Company considers leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.

Intangible assets and intangible liabilities are recorded as separate components on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amortization of acquired above-market and below-market leases is recorded as an adjustment to Rental Revenue on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The amortization of in-place leases is recorded as an adjustment to Depreciation and Amortization on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The cost of buildings and improvements includes the purchase price of the Company’s properties and any acquisition-related adjustments, along with any subsequent improvements to such properties. The Company’s Investments in Real Estate are stated at cost and are generally depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Description	Depreciable Life
Building	40 years
Building, land and site improvements	15-40 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	3-7 years
Lease intangibles	Over lease term

12

Significant improvements to properties are capitalized. When assets are sold or retired, their costs and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts with the resulting gains or losses reflected in net income or loss for the period.

Repairs and maintenance are expensed to operations as incurred and are included in Rental Property Operating on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company’s management reviews the Company’s real estate properties for impairment each quarter or when there is an event or change in circumstances that indicates an impaired value. If the carrying amount of the real estate investment is no longer recoverable and exceeds the fair value of such investment, an impairment loss is recognized. The impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value, or fair value, less cost to sell if classified as held for sale. If the Company’s strategy changes or market conditions otherwise dictate an earlier sale date, an impairment loss may be recognized and such loss could be material to the Company’s results. During the periods presented, no such impairment occurred.

Investments in Real Estate-Related Securities

The Company reports its investment in real estate-related securities at fair value and any changes in fair value are recorded in the current period earnings. Dividend income is recorded when declared and the resulting dividend income, along with gains and losses are recorded as a component of Realized and Unrealized Gain (Loss) from Real Estate-Related Securities on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Investments in Real Estate Debt

The Company’s investments in real estate debt consist of commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), which are securities backed by one or more mortgage loans secured by real estate assets. The Company classifies its CMBS as trading securities and records such investments at fair value. As such, the resulting unrealized gains and losses of its CMBS are recorded as a component of Realized and Unrealized Gain (Loss) from Real Estate Debt on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Interest income from the Company’s investments in CMBS is recognized over the life of each investment and is recorded on the accrual basis on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Investments in International Affiliated Funds

The Company reports its investment in European Cities Partnership SCSp (“ECF”) and Asia Pacific Cities Fund (“APCF”), investment funds managed by an affiliate of TIAA (collectively, the “International Affiliated Funds”), under the equity method of accounting. The equity method income (loss) from the investments in the International Affiliated Funds represents the Company’s allocable share of each fund’s net income or loss, which includes income and expense, realized gains and losses, foreign currency translation adjustments, and unrealized appreciation or depreciation as determined from the financial statements of ECF and APCF (which carry investments at fair value in accordance with GAAP) and is reported as Income (Loss) from Equity Investment in Unconsolidated International Affiliated Funds on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

All contributions to or distributions from the investment in the International Affiliated Funds are accrued when notice is received and recorded as a receivable from or payable to the International Affiliated Funds on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company uses the cumulative earnings approach to classify its distributions received from equity method investments. Under the cumulative earnings approach, distributions received are considered returns on investment and classified as cash inflows from operating activities, unless the investor’s cumulative distributions received less distributions received in prior periods that were determined to be returns on investment exceed cumulative equity in earnings recognized by the investor. When such an excess occurs, the current-period distribution up to this excess is considered a return of investment and classified as cash inflows from investing activities.

13

Investments in Commercial Mortgage Loans

The Company originates commercial mortgage loans and elects the fair value option for each loan. In accordance with the adoption of the fair value option allowed under ASC 825, Financial Instruments, and at the election of the Company, the commercial mortgage loans are stated at fair value and initially valued at the face amount of the loan funding. Subsequently, the commercial mortgage loans are valued at least quarterly by an independent third-party valuation firm with additional oversight being performed by the Advisor’s internal valuation department. The value is based on market factors, such as market interest rates and spreads for comparable loans, the performance of the underlying collateral (such as the loan-to-value ratio and the cash flow of the underlying collateral), and the credit quality of the borrower.

The income from the commercial mortgage loans represents interest income and origination fee income, which is reported as Income from Commercial Mortgage Loans on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded as a component of Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Commercial Mortgage Loans on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In the event of a partial or whole sale of the commercial mortgage loan that qualifies for sale accounting under GAAP, the Company derecognizes the corresponding asset and fees paid as part of the partial or whole sale are recognized on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Senior Loan Participations

In certain instances, the Company finances loans through the non-recourse syndication of a senior loan interest to a third party. Depending on the particular structure of the syndication, the senior loan interest may remain on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets or, in other cases, the sale will be recognized and the senior loan interest will no longer be included in its consolidated financial statements. When these sales do not qualify for sale accounting under GAAP, the Company reflects the transaction by recording a loan participations liability at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, however this gross presentation does not impact Stockholders’ Equity or Net Income. When the sales are recognized, the Consolidated Balance Sheets only includes the remaining subordinate loan.

Note Payable

The Company finances the acquisition of certain mortgage loans through the use of “note-on-note” transactions in which the Company pledges mortgage loans as collateral to secure a loan which is equal in value to a specified percentage of the estimated fair value of the pledged collateral. These “note-on-note” transactions are recorded in Note Payable, at Fair Value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are carried at fair value through the adoption of the fair value option allowed under ASC 825.

Financing costs related to the Company’s note payable are expensed as incurred and recorded in Interest Expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Deferred Charges

The Company’s deferred charges include financing and leasing costs. Financing costs include legal, structuring and other loan costs incurred by the Company for its financing arrangements.

Deferred financing costs related to the Credit Facility (as defined herein) are recorded as a component of Other Assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the Credit Facility, which approximates the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are charged to interest expense upon early repayment or significant modification of the Credit Facility and fully amortized deferred financing costs are removed from the books upon the maturity of the Credit Facility.

14

Deferred financing costs related to the Company’s mortgages payable are recorded as an offset to the related liability and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the financing instrument, which approximates the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs related to the Company’s mortgages payable are charged to interest expense upon early repayment or significant modification of the mortgages payable and fully amortized deferred financing costs are removed from the books upon maturity.

Deferred leasing costs, which consist primarily of brokerage and legal fees, incurred in connection with new leases, are recorded as a component of Intangible Assets, Net on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and amortized over the life of the related lease. Unamortized deferred leasing costs are charged to amortization expense upon early termination or significant modification of the leases and fully amortized deferred leasing costs are removed from the books upon lease expiration.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Accounting guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1—quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the measurement date. The Company does not adjust the quoted price for these investments.

Level 2—quoted prices are available in markets that are not active or model inputs are based on inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date.

Level 3—pricing inputs are unobservable and include instances where there is minimal, if any, market activity for the investment. These inputs require significant judgment or estimation by management or third parties when determining fair value and generally represent anything that does not meet the criteria of Levels 1 and 2. Due to the inherent uncertainty of these estimates, these values may differ materially from the values that would have been used had a ready market for these investments existed.

The Company’s investments in real estate-related securities are recorded at fair value based on the closing price of the common stock as reported by the applicable national securities exchange and have been classified as Level 1.

The Company’s investments in real estate debt, which consists of CMBS, are reported at fair value. The Company generally determines the fair value of its investments in real estate debt by utilizing third-party pricing service providers whenever available and such investments have been classified as Level 2.

The Company’s derivative financial instruments, consisting of interest rate swaps, are reported at fair value. The fair values of the Company’s interest rate contracts were estimated using advice from a third-party valuation service provider based on contractual cash flows and interest calculations using the appropriate discount rates and such investments have been classified as Level 2.

The Company’s investments in commercial mortgage loans consist of floating rate senior and mezzanine loans the Company originated and have been classified as Level 3. The commercial mortgage loans are carried at fair value based on significant unobservable inputs.

The Company’s loan participations and note payable are carried at fair value based on significant unobservable inputs and have been classified as Level 3.

(1) Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as of September 30, 2023 was 5.3%.

As of September 30, 2023, the carrying value of the Company’s credit facility approximated fair value. The fair value of the Company’s mortgages payable was $174.3 million and $178.6 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Fair value of the Company’s indebtedness is estimated by modeling the cash flows required by the Company’s debt agreements and discounting them back to present value using the appropriate discount rate. Additionally, the Company considers current market rates and conditions by evaluating similar borrowing agreements with comparable loan-to-value ratios and credit profiles. The inputs used in determining the fair value of the Company’s indebtedness are considered Level 3.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s sources of revenue and the related revenue recognition policies are as follows:

Rental Revenue — consists primarily of base rent arising from tenant operating leases at the Company’s properties. Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease, including any rent steps or abatement provisions. The Company begins to recognize revenue when a tenant takes possession of the leased space. The Company includes in rental revenue its tenant reimbursement income, which consists of amounts due from tenants for costs related to common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs as defined in lease agreements.

The Company evaluates the collectability of receivables related to rental revenue on an individual lease basis. Management exercises judgment in assessing collectability and considers the length of time a receivable has been outstanding, tenant credit-worthiness, payment history, available information about the financial condition of the tenant, and current economic trends, among other factors. Tenant receivables that are deemed uncollectible are recognized as a reduction to rental revenue.

Income from Commercial Mortgage Loans — consists of income from interest earned and recognized as operating income based upon the principal amount outstanding and the contracted interest rate along with origination fees. The accrual of interest income on mortgage loans is discontinued when in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due (“nonaccrual mortgage loans”), unless the loan is well-secured and is in the process of collection. Interest income on nonaccrual mortgage loans is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received until the loans are returned to accrual status. As of September 30, 2023, the Company did not have any nonaccrual mortgage loans.

Leases

The Company derives revenue pursuant to lease agreements. At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. At the lease

17

inception, the Company determines whether each lease is a sales-type, direct financing or operating lease. Such classification is based on whether:

• The lessee gains control of the underlying asset and the lessor therefore relinquishes control to the lessee under certain criteria (sales-type or direct-financing); or

• All other leases that do not meet the criteria as sales-type or direct financing leases (operating).

The Company’s leases are classified as operating leases in accordance with relevant accounting guidelines, and the related revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis. Upon the termination or vacation of a tenant lease, the associated straight-line rent receivable is written off.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents represent cash held in banks, cash on hand and liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. The Company may have bank balances in excess of federally insured amounts; however, the Company deposits its cash with high credit-quality institutions to minimize credit risk.

Restricted Cash

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $21.3 million of restricted cash. The restricted cash consisted of $1.0 million of tenant security deposits and $20.3 million of cash received for subscriptions prior to the date in which the subscriptions are effective, which is held in a bank account controlled by the Company’s transfer agent, but in the name of the Company.

Income Taxes

The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”) commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2018, and intends to operate in a manner that will allow it to continue to qualify as a REIT. In qualifying for taxation as a REIT, the Company is subject to federal corporate income tax to the extent it distributes less than 100% of its REIT taxable income (including for this purpose its net capital gain) to its stockholders. The Company will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which distributions it pays in any calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of its ordinary income, 95% of its net capital gains, and 100% of its undistributed income from prior years.

The Company may elect to treat certain of its corporate subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”). In general, a TRS may perform additional services for the Company’s tenants and generally may engage in any real estate or non-real estate-related business other than management or operation of a lodging facility or a health care facility. The Company’s dealings with the TRSs must be arm’s length in nature or be permitted under the Code. Otherwise, the Company may be subject to 100% penalty tax, or its TRSs may be denied deductions. A domestic TRS is subject to U.S. corporate federal income tax and state income or franchise tax. A Cayman Islands TRS is not subject to U.S. corporate federal income tax or Cayman Islands taxes. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had five active TRSs: the Company uses two Cayman Islands TRSs to hold its investments in the International Affiliated Funds, one Luxembourg TRS to hold minority interests in its direct European investment, one domestic TRS to hold the senior portions of the commercial mortgage loans, and one domestic TRS for self-storage, nonrental-related business. The asset tests that apply to REITs limit the Company’s ownership of the securities of its TRSs to no more than 20% of the value of the Company’s total assets. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company incurred federal income tax expense related to the TRSs of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

The Company accrues liabilities when it believes that it is more likely than not that it will not realize the benefits of tax positions that it has taken in its tax returns or for the amount of any tax benefit that exceeds the cumulative

18

probability threshold in accordance with ASC 740-10, Uncertain Tax Positions. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions are included in income tax expense, and no amount has been accrued. Income tax returns for tax years 2019 through 2022 remain subject to governmental examination.

Deferred Taxes

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had a deferred tax liability of $2.7 million that is recorded in Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The deferred tax liability is a value-based tax, calculated on the difference between acquisition cost and current tax basis, and was assumed during the acquisition of the multifamily portfolio in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Organization and Offering Expenses

The Advisor advanced organization and offering expenses on behalf of the Company (including legal, accounting and other expenses attributable to the organization, but excluding upfront selling commissions, dealer manager fees and stockholder servicing fees) through the fourth full fiscal quarter after the Company’s acquisition of its first property. The Company agreed to reimburse the Advisor for all such advanced expenses it incurred in 60 equal monthly installments commencing on the earlier of the date the Company’s NAV reached $1.0 billion or January 31, 2023.The Company’s NAV reached $1.0 billion in October 2021 and as of September 30, 2023, the Company had reimbursed the Advisor $1.8 million of such costs.

The Advisor and its affiliates have incurred organization and offering expenses on the Company’s behalf for the Initial Public Offering of $4.6 million, consisting of offering costs of $3.5 million and organization costs of $1.1 million, of which $2.8 million and $3.6 million remained outstanding as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These organization and offering costs are recorded as Due to Affiliates on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Offering costs are currently charged to equity as such amounts are incurred. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company charged $0.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, in offering costs to equity.

Foreign Currency

The financial position and results of operations of ECF are measured using the local currency (Euro) as the functional currency and are translated into U.S. dollars for purposes of recording the related activity under the equity method of accounting. Net income (loss), which includes the Company’s allocable share of ECF’s income and expense, realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation, has been translated using the weighted average exchange rates during the period. Assets and liabilities have been translated at the rates of exchange on the balance sheet date.

The financial position and results of operations of the Company’s wholly-owned multifamily property located in Copenhagen, Denmark (“CASA Nord”) are measured using the local currency (Danish Krone) as the functional currency and are translated into U.S. dollars for purposes of recording the related activity. Net income (loss) has been translated using the weighted average exchange rates during the period. Assets and liabilities have been translated at the rates of exchange on the balance sheet date.

The resulting translation gain and loss adjustments are recorded directly as a separate component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), unless there is a sale or complete liquidation of the underlying foreign investments. Foreign currency translation adjustments resulted in other comprehensive losses of approximately $2.8 million and $1.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Foreign currency translation adjustments resulted in other comprehensive losses of approximately $5.4 million and $11.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

19

The financial position and results of operations of APCF are measured in U.S. dollars for purposes of recording the related activity under the equity method of accounting. There is no direct foreign currency exposure to the Company for its investment in APCF.

Derivative Instruments

The Company uses derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps to manage risks from fluctuations in interest rates. The Company records its derivatives at fair value and such amounts are reflected in Other Assets or Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Any changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recorded as Unrealized Gain (Loss) from Interest Rate Derivatives on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Earnings per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share of common stock is determined by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. All classes of common stock are allocated net income (loss) at the same rate per share. The Company does not have any dilutive securities outstanding that would cause basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share to differ.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The expedients and exceptions are effective for the period from March 12, 2020 to December 31, 2022. Management adopted the guidance and it did not have a material impact to the Company.

In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 (“ASU 2022-06”). The amendments in ASU 2022-06 extend the period of time preparers can utilize the reference rate reform relief guidance. ASU 2022-06 is effective for all entities upon issuance. To ensure the relief in Topic 848 covers the period of time during which a significant number of modifications may take place, the ASU defers the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022, to December 31, 2024, after which entities will no longer be permitted to apply the relief in Topic 848. Management adopted the guidance and it did not have a material impact to the Company.

The Company will no longer incur the stockholder servicing fee after September 2056 in connection with those Class T, Class S and Class D shares currently outstanding; the fees may end sooner if the total underwriting compensation paid in respect of the Offering reaches 10.0% of the gross offering proceeds or if the Company completes a liquidity event. The Company will incur stockholder servicing fees in connection with future issuances of Class D shares for a 35-year period from the date of issuance and seven years for Class T shares and Class S shares from date of issuance, assuming the maximum up-front selling commissions and dealer manager fees are paid.

Note 14. Economic Dependency

The Company depends on the Advisor and its affiliates for certain services that are essential to it, including the sale of the Company’s shares of common stock, acquisition and disposition decisions, and certain other responsibilities. In the event that the Advisor and its affiliates are unable to provide such services, the Company would be required to find alternative service providers.

Note 15. Risks and Contingencies

Concentrations of risk may arise when a number of properties are located in a similar geographic region such that the economic conditions of that region could impact tenants’ obligations to meet their contractual obligations or cause the values of individual properties to decline. Additionally, concentrations of risk may arise if any one tenant comprises a significant amount of the Company’s rent, or if tenants are concentrated in a particular industry.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no significant geographic concentrations of risk. Additionally, the Company had no significant concentrations of tenants, as no single tenant had annual contract rent that made up more than 7% of the rental income of the Company. There are no significant lease expirations scheduled to occur over the next twelve months.

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Advisor expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Note 16. Leases

The Company’s real estate properties are leased to tenants under operating lease agreements which expire on various dates. Certain leases have the option to extend or terminate at the tenant’s discretion, with termination options resulting in additional fees due to the Company.

Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis. The leases do not have material variable payments, material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Rental income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $43.4 million and $129.4 million, respectively. Rental income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $31.4 million and $77.6 million, respectively.

Aggregate minimum annual rentals for wholly-owned real estate investments owned by the Company through the non-cancelable lease term, excluding short-term multifamily, self-storage and single-family rentals as of September 30, 2023 are as follows ($ in thousands):

Year	September 30, 2023
2023 (Remaining)	$	22,596

2026		66,633
2027		55,446
Thereafter		160,046
Total	$	467,278

Certain leases provide for additional rental amounts based upon the recovery of actual operating expenses in excess of specified base amounts, sales volume or contractual increases as defined in the lease agreement. These contractual contingent rentals are not included in the table above.

Lessee

Certain of the Company’s investments in real estate are subject to ground leases for which the Company is a lessee. The Company’s ground leases are classified as either operating leases or finance leases based on the characteristics of each lease. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had one ground lease classified as operating and two ground leases classified as finance. The right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to ground leases are reflected within Other Assets and Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively.

34

Each of the Company’s ground leases were acquired as part of the acquisition of real estate, and no incremental costs were incurred for such ground leases. The leases do not contain material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The Company’s ground leases are non-cancelable and certain leases contain renewal options.

The balances of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to the Company’s ground leases as of September 30, 2023 are as follows ($ in thousands):

Liabilities:
Lease liability—finance leases		2,524		2,531
Lease liability—operating lease		2,153		2,123

The Company utilized its incremental borrowing rate at the time of entering such leases, which was 8.43%, to determine its lease liabilities. As of September 30, 2023, the weighted average remaining lease terms of the Company’s operating lease and finance leases was 37 years and 44 years, respectively.

Note 17. Derivatives

The Company uses derivative financial instruments to minimize the risks and costs associated with the Company’s investments and financing transactions. The Company has not designated any of its derivative financial instruments as hedges as defined under GAAP. Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks.

The use of derivative financial instruments involves certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements do not perform as agreed. To mitigate this risk, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments with counterparties it believes to have appropriate credit ratings and that are major financial institutions with which the Company and its affiliates may also have other financial relationships.

Interest Rate Contracts

Certain of the Company’s transactions expose the Company to interest rate risk, including exposure to variable interest rates on certain loans secured by the Company’s real estate. The Company uses derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, to limit the Company’s exposure to the future variability of interest rates.

The following table details the Company’s outstanding interest rate derivatives that were non-designated hedges of interest rate risk (notional amounts in thousands):

TIAA has purchased $300.0 million of the Company’s Class N shares of common stock through its wholly owned subsidiary. Per the terms of the agreement between the Company and TIAA, beginning on January 31, 2023, TIAA may submit a portion of its Class N shares for repurchase, provided that after taking into account the repurchase, the total value of TIAA’s aggregate ownership of the Company’s Class N shares shall not be less than $300.0 million. Beginning on January 31, 2025, TIAA may submit all of its remaining shares for repurchase, provided that provided that TIAA must continue to maintain ownership of the $200,000 initial investment in the Company’s shares for so long as the Advisor or its affiliate serves as the Company’s advisor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the total amount of repurchases of Class N shares eligible for repurchase will be limited to no more than 0.67% of the Company’s aggregate NAV per month and no more than 1.67% of the Company’s aggregate NAV per calendar quarter; provided that, if in any month or quarter the total amount of aggregate repurchases of all classes of the Company’s common stock do not reach the overall share repurchase plan limits of 2% of the aggregate NAV per month and 5% of the aggregate NAV per calendar quarter, the above repurchase limits on the Class N shares shall not apply to that month or quarter and TIAA shall be entitled to submit shares for repurchase up to the overall share repurchase plan limits.

Restricted Stock Grants

Effective July 1, 2022, each independent director receives a $100,000 annual retainer, the chairperson of the audit committee receives an additional $20,000 annual retainer and the lead independent director receives an additional $5,000 annual retainer. The Company pays 50% of this compensation in cash, unrestricted stock, or a combination thereof in quarterly installments and the remaining 50% in the form of an annual grant of restricted stock based on the most recent transaction price. The restricted stock generally vests one year from the date of grant.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan

The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan whereby holders of Class T, Class S, Class D and Class I shares (other than investors in certain states or who are clients of a participating broker-dealer that does not permit automatic enrollment in the distribution reinvestment plan) have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock unless they elect to receive their distributions in cash. Holders of Class N shares are not eligible to participate in the distribution reinvestment plan and receive their distributions in cash. Investors who are clients of a participating broker-dealer that does not permit automatic enrollment in the distribution reinvestment plan or are residents of those states that do not allow automatic enrollment receive their distributions in cash unless they elect to have their cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock. The per share purchase price for shares purchased pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan will be equal to the transaction price at the time the distribution is payable, which will generally be equal to the Company’s prior month’s NAV per share for that share class. Stockholders do not pay upfront selling commissions or dealer manager fees when purchasing shares pursuant to the distribution reinvestment plan. The stockholder servicing fees with respect to shares of the Company’s Class T shares, Class S shares and Class D shares are calculated based on the NAV for those shares and may reduce the NAV or, alternatively, the distributions payable with respect to shares of each such class, including shares issued in respect of distributions on such shares under the distribution reinvestment plan.

Distributions

The Company generally intends to distribute substantially all of its taxable income, which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP, to its stockholders each year to comply with the REIT provisions of the Code. The Company’s distribution policy reflects its intention to pay distributions monthly, subject to the discretion of the board of directors.

Based on the monthly record dates established by the board of directors, the Company accrues for distributions on a monthly basis. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had accrued $9.8 million

38

and $10.1 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company declared and paid distributions of $29.3 million and $89.6 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company declared and paid distributions of $27.5 million and $67.8 million, respectively.

Each class of common stock receives the same gross distribution per share, which was $0.2055 and $0.6279 per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The net distribution varies for each class based on the applicable advisory fee and stockholder servicing fee, which is deducted from the monthly distribution per share.

The following tables detail the net distribution for each of the Company’s share classes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023:

	Three Months Ended September 30, 2023

Share Repurchases

The Company has adopted a share repurchase plan, whereby on a monthly basis, stockholders may request that the Company repurchase all or any portion of their shares. The Company may choose to repurchase all, some or none of the shares that have been requested to be repurchased at the end of any particular month, in its discretion, subject to any limitations in the share repurchase plan. The total amount of aggregate repurchases of Class T, Class S, Class D and Class I shares will be limited to 2% of the aggregate NAV per month (measured using the aggregate NAV as of the end of the immediately preceding month) and 5% of the aggregate NAV per calendar quarter (measured using the aggregate NAV as of the end of the immediately preceding quarter). In addition, if during any consecutive 24-month period, the Company does not have at least one month in which the Company fully satisfies 100% of properly submitted repurchase requests or accepts all properly submitted tenders in a self-tender offer for the Company’s shares, the Company will not make any new investments (excluding short-term cash management investments under 30 days in duration) and will use all available investable assets to satisfy repurchase requests (subject to the limitations under this program) until all outstanding repurchase requests have been satisfied. Shares would be repurchased at a price equal to the transaction price on the applicable repurchase date, subject to any early repurchase deduction. Shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year would be repurchased at 95% of the transaction price. Due to the illiquid nature of investments in real estate, the Company may not have sufficient liquid resources to fund repurchase requests and has established limitations on the amount of funds the Company may use for repurchases during any calendar month and quarter. Further, the Company’s board of directors may modify, suspend or terminate the share repurchase plan.

39

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company repurchased shares of its common stock for $85.6 million and $262.3 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company repurchased shares of its common stock for $7.6 million and $17.9 million, respectively. The Company had no unfulfilled repurchase requests during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest

The Company’s affiliated partners have redeemable non-controlling interests in joint ventures due to crystallization rights, which allow the partners to trigger the payment on the promote. The Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests are recorded at the greater of (i) their carrying amount, adjusted for their share of the allocation of GAAP net income or loss and distributions, or (ii) their redemption value, which is equivalent to the fair value of such interests at the end of each measurement period. As the redemption value was greater than the adjusted carrying value as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company recorded an allocation adjustment between Additional Paid-In-Capital and Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest. The balance was $0.4 million and $0.6 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Note 19. Segment Reporting

The Company operates in eleven reportable segments: industrial properties, healthcare properties, multifamily properties, retail properties, single-family housing, office properties, self-storage properties, commercial mortgage loans, real estate-related securities, International Affiliated Funds, and other (corporate). These are operating segments that are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-makers in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief executive officer, chief financial officer and head of portfolio management have been identified as the chief operating decision-makers. The Company’s chief operating decision-makers direct the allocation of resources to operating segments based on the profitability and cash flows of each respective segment. The Company believes that segment net operating income is the performance metric that captures the unique operating characteristics of each segment.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

References herein to “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Nuveen Global Cities REIT, Inc. and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition to historical data, this discussion contains forward-looking statements about our business, operations and financial performance based on current expectations that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those in this discussion as a result of various factors, including but not limited to those discussed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements about our business, operations and financial performance, including, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies and objectives. You can generally identify forward-looking statements by our use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue” or other similar words. These statements include our plans and objectives for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to future growth and availability of funds, and are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Assumptions relating to these statements involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to accurately predict and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements, and the forward-looking statements themselves, are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that these forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and our actual results, performance and achievements may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to those discussed under Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in these forward-looking statements, the inclusion of this information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans, which we consider to be reasonable, will be achieved. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Except as required by law, we do not undertake to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

Nuveen Global Cities REIT, Inc. is a Maryland corporation formed on May 1, 2017 and qualifies as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We were formed to invest in properties in or around certain global cities selected for their resilience, long-term structural performance and ability to deliver an attractive and stable distribution yield. We expect that over time a majority of our real estate investments will be located in the United States and that a substantial but lesser portion of our portfolio will include real properties located in Canada, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. We seek to complement our real property investments by investing a smaller portion of our portfolio in real estate-related assets. We are externally managed by our advisor, Nuveen Real Estate Global Cities Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”), an investment advisory affiliate of Nuveen Real Estate. Nuveen Real Estate is the real estate investment management division of our sponsor, Nuveen, LLC (“Nuveen”). Nuveen is the asset management arm and a wholly owned subsidiary of TIAA.

Public Offerings

On January 31, 2018, our Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-252077) for our initial public offering (the “Initial Public Offering”) was first declared effective by the SEC. The Initial Public Offering terminated on July 2, 2021.

On January 13, 2021, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-252077), (the “Follow-on Registration Statement”) to register up to $5.0 billion of shares of common stock, consisting of up to $4.0 billion in shares in our primary offering and up to $1.0 billion in shares pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan (the “Follow-on Public Offering”). The Follow-on Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on July 2, 2021. We are offering to the public any combination of four classes of shares of our common stock, Class T shares, Class S shares, Class D shares and Class I shares, with a dollar value up to the maximum offering amount. The publicly offered share classes have different upfront selling commissions and ongoing stockholder servicing fees. The purchase price per share for each class of common stock varies and generally equals our prior month’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share, as calculated monthly, plus applicable upfront selling commissions and dealer manager fees.

Private Offerings

TIAA invested $200,000 through the purchase of 20,000 shares of common stock at $10.00 per share as our initial capitalization. Subsequent to our initial capitalization, TIAA purchased $300.0 million in shares (less the $200,000 initial capitalization amount).

We are conducting a private offering of Class I shares to feeder vehicles primarily created to hold our Class I shares, which in turn will offer interests in themselves to investors. We are conducting such offering pursuant to an exemption to registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Investments in Real Estate-Related Securities

We invest in real estate-related securities including shares of common stock of publicly-listed REITs. As of September 30, 2023, we had 57 holdings and have invested $116.9 million in securities that are valued at $105.2 million.

Investments in Real Estate Debt

We invest in commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”). CMBS are securities that evidence interests in, or are secured by, a single commercial mortgage loan or a pool of commercial mortgage loans. CMBS are generally pass-throughs and represent beneficial ownership interests in trusts whose assets consist of defined portfolios of one or more commercial mortgage loans. Losses are usually borne by the most subordinate class, which receive payments only after the senior classes have received payments they are entitled to. CMBS are subject to the risks of the underlying mortgage loans. The majority (approximately 92%) of our CMBS are single asset, single borrower deals, and nearly all our CMBS are rated Investment Grade (BBB- or higher) with approximately 4% being non-Investment Grade (BB+ or lower). The greatest concentration by property sector of our CMBS is in industrial properties. Additionally, to minimize interest rate risk, the portfolio is concentrated in floating-rate securities (approximately 86%) whose base index rates above one-month LIBOR and one-month

51

SOFR are 5.32% and 5.43%, respectively, and help to generate a current portfolio yield of approximately 12.2%. As of September 30, 2023, we have invested $118.8 million in CMBS that are valued at $114.4 million on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.

(1) During the year ended December 31, 2022, we sold four senior loans to unaffiliated parties, receiving total proceeds of $208.5 million, which are net of disposition fees and additional fundings. The senior loan sales, with the exception of Luxe Scottsdale, did not qualify for sale accounting under GAAP and as such, the loans were not de-recognized.

In accordance with the adoption of the fair value option allowed under ASC 825, Financial Instruments, and at our election, the existing commercial mortgage loans are stated at fair value and were initially valued at the face amount of the loan funding. Subsequently, the commercial mortgage loans are valued at least quarterly by an independent third-party valuation firm with additional oversight being performed by the Advisor’s internal valuation department. The value will be based on market factors, such as market interest rates and spreads for comparable loans, the performance of the underlying collateral (such as the loan-to-value ratio and the cash flow of the underlying collateral), and the credit quality of the borrower.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had unrealized gains (losses) on our commercial mortgage loans of $0.4 million and $(1.3) million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had unrealized gains (losses) on our commercial mortgage loans of $0.7 million and $(1.6) million, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized interest income from our investment in commercial mortgage loans of $7.5 million and $21.0 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized interest income and loan origination fee income from our investment in commercial mortgage loans of $5.6 million and $9.5 million, respectively.

Factors Impacting Our Operating Results

The Company’s businesses are affected by conditions in the financial markets and economic conditions in the United States and to a lesser extent, elsewhere in the world. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, global markets continued to experience significant volatility, driven by concerns over persistent inflation, rising interest rates, slowing economic growth and geopolitical uncertainty. Recent bank failures and consolidations, and other events affecting financial institutions, have also contributed to volatility in global markets and resulted

53

in diminished liquidity and credit availability in the market broadly. Continued inflation has prompted central banks to take monetary policy tightening actions, including raising interest rates, which has created further uncertainty for the economy. Additionally, rising interest rates, increasing costs and supply chain issues may continue to dampen consumer spending and slow corporate profit growth, which may negatively impact equity values. It remains difficult to predict the full impact of recent events and any future changes in interest rates or inflation.

Results of operations are also dependent on the rental revenue we receive from the properties that we acquire, the timing of lease expirations, operating expenses, the competitive environment for real estate assets and income from our investments in real estate-related securities, real estate debt, commercial mortgages, and the International Affiliated Funds. Real estate has produced strong returns over the last few years and has priced in the effects of higher inflation and monetary policy to a more limited extent than other asset classes. Higher market rents, particularly from industrial, self-storage and housing properties, are translating into strong net operating income growth, and investors are continuing to view real estate as a key portfolio diversifier in a high-inflation environment. U.S. commercial real estate should benefit even during a rising interest rate environment, as real-estate assets will continue to be a higher-yielding alternative to fixed-income assets in the short term.

Competitive Environment

We face competition from a diverse mix of market participants, including but not limited to other companies with similar business models, REITs, private equity funds, independent investors and other real estate investors. Competition from others may diminish our opportunity to acquire a desired property on favorable terms or at all. In addition, this competition may put pressure on us to reduce the rental rates below those that we expect to charge for the properties that we acquire, which would adversely affect our financial results.

Rental Revenues

We receive income primarily from rental revenue generated by the properties that we acquire. The amount of rental revenue depends upon a number of factors, including: our ability to enter into leases with increasing or market value rents for the properties that we acquire; and rent collection, which primarily relates to each future tenant’s financial condition and ability to make rent payments to us on time.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses include general and administrative expenses, including legal, accounting and other expenses related to corporate governance, public reporting and compliance with the various provisions of U.S. securities laws. As we have with the leases associated with our industrial, retail, office and healthcare properties, we generally expect to structure our leases so that the tenant is responsible for taxes, maintenance, insurance and structural repairs with respect to the premises throughout the lease term. Increases or decreases in such operating expenses will impact our overall financial performance.

Our Qualification as a REIT

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Shares of our common stock are subject to restrictions on ownership and transfer that are intended, among other purposes, to assist us in qualifying and maintaining our qualification as a REIT. In qualifying for taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), we are subject to federal corporate income tax to the extent we distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income (including any net capital gains) to our stockholders and meet certain tests regarding the nature of our income and assets. In order to satisfy a requirement that five or fewer individuals do not own (or be treated as owning) more than 50% of our stock, subject to certain exceptions, no person or entity may own, or be deemed to own, by virtue of the applicable constructive ownership provisions of the Code, more than 9.8% (in value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of the aggregate of our outstanding shares of stock or more than 9.8% (in value or number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of our outstanding common stock.

Rental Revenue and Rental Property Operating Expenses

Due to acquisitions of real estate we have made since September 30, 2022, our rental revenues and rental property operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are not comparable. However, certain properties in our portfolio were owned for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and are further discussed below in “Same Property Results of Operations.”

55

Income from Commercial Mortgage Loans

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, income from commercial mortgage loans increased $1.9 million and $11.5 million in comparison to the corresponding period in 2022, due to the origination of three commercial mortgages in July 2022, as well as the impact of rising interest rates in 2023.

General and Administrative Expenses

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.2 million in comparison to the corresponding period in 2022. This increase was primarily driven by increased volume-based fund administrator fees resulting from new property acquisitions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, general and administrative expenses decreased by $0.1 million in comparison to the corresponding period in 2022, primarily attributable to a decrease in disposition fees.

Advisory Fee Due to Affiliate

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the advisory fee due to affiliate increased by $0.3 million and $5.1 million as compared to the corresponding periods in 2022 due to the growth of our NAV.

Depreciation and Amortization

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, depreciation and amortization increased by $3.7 million and $20.2 million, respectively, in comparison to the corresponding periods in 2022 primarily due to acquisitions of real estate.

Realized and Unrealized Gain (Loss) from Real Estate-Related Securities

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, realized and unrealized losses from real estate-related securities decreased by $1.1 million and $28.3 million, respectively, in comparison to the corresponding periods in 2022, primarily driven by more favorable market conditions.

Realized and Unrealized Gain (Loss) from Real Estate Debt

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, realized and unrealized loss from real estate debt decreased by $0.1 million and $3.0 million, respectively, in comparison to the corresponding periods in 2022 driven by tightening spreads.

Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Commercial Mortgage Loans

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, unrealized gains on commercial mortgage loans decreased by $0.2 million in comparison to the corresponding period in 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, unrealized losses on commercial mortgage loans decreased by $0.3 million in comparison to the corresponding period in 2022. The changes were primarily driven by the widening of floating rate spreads.

Income (Loss) from Equity Investment in Unconsolidated International Affiliated Funds

Income (loss) from equity investments in unconsolidated international affiliated funds went from income of $0.4 million and $5.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, to losses of $(2.9) million and $(6.0) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The change from income to loss was primarily driven by valuation losses in the office and logistics markets for ECF and APCF as well as foreign currency losses due to the strengthening of the US dollar.

56

Interest Income

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, interest income increased $0.8 million and $3.4 million, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2022 due to increased bond income from our CMBS investments.

Interest Expense

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, interest expense increased $6.1 million and $19.7 million, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2022 due to additional borrowings on our credit facility, new borrowings on our mortgages and note payable, and the impact of rising interest rates.

Same Property Results of Operations

We evaluate our consolidated results of operations on a same property basis, which allows us to analyze our property operating results excluding acquisitions during the periods under comparison. Properties in our portfolio are considered same property if they were owned for the full periods presented, otherwise they are considered non-same property. Newly acquired or recently developed properties that have not achieved stabilized occupancy are excluded from same property results and are considered non-same property. We do not consider our real estate-related securities, real estate debt, commercial mortgage loans, single-family housing and International Affiliated Funds segments to be same property.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our same property portfolio consisted of 22 industrial, 14 healthcare, five multifamily, three office, and one retail property. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our same property portfolio consisted of 14 healthcare, 11 industrial, five multifamily, three office, and one retail property.

Same property operating results are measured by calculating same property net operating income (“NOI”). Same property NOI is a supplemental non-GAAP disclosure of our operating results that we believe is meaningful as it enables management to evaluate the impact of occupancy, rents, leasing activity and other controllable property operating results at our real estate properties. We define same property NOI as operating revenues less operating expenses, which exclude (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense and (iii) other non-property-related revenue and expense items such as (a) general and administrative expenses, (b) management fee, (c) interest income, (d) income from real estate-related securities, (e) income from equity investment in unconsolidated international affiliated funds and (f) income from commercial mortgage loans.

Our same property NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs and should not be considered to be more relevant or accurate in evaluating our operating performance than the current GAAP methodology used in calculating net income (loss).

The following table reconciles GAAP net income attributable to our stockholders to same property NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 ($ in thousands):

Same Property—Revenue

Our rental revenue includes contracted rental income from our tenants based on the leases and tenant reimbursement income for costs related to common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, rental revenues increased $1.7 million and $3.9 million, respectively, across the same property portfolio as compared to the corresponding periods in 2022.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the increase was primarily driven by increased market rents at our same property industrial , healthcare, and multifamily investments and recovery income at certain of our industrial and healthcare properties.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the increase was primarily related to increased market rents at our same property industrial, healthcare, and multifamily investments, increases in recovery income at certain of our industrial, healthcare, and retail properties, and lease termination income at one of our retail properties.

Same Property—Expenses

Same property rental property operating expenses primarily includes real estate taxes, utilities and other maintenance expenses associated with our real estate properties. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, property operating expenses increased $1.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively, across the same property portfolio as compared to the corresponding periods in 2022.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the increases were driven by increased real estate taxes at certain of our multifamily, industrial and healthcare properties as well as higher property insurance at certain of our office and healthcare properties.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe we are well positioned from a liquidity perspective with approximately $458.7 million of liquidity as of September 30, 2023, consisting of $209.0 million of an undrawn unsecured revolving credit facility, approximately $219.6 million in investments in real estate debt securities and real estate-related equity securities and $30.1 million of unrestricted cash on hand, that could be liquidated to satisfy any potential liquidity requirements.

Our primary needs for liquidity and capital resources are to fund our investments, to make distributions to our stockholders, to repurchase shares of our common stock pursuant to our share repurchase plan, to pay our offering and operating expenses and capital expenditures and to pay debt service on the outstanding indebtedness we incur. Our operating expenses include, among other things, fees and expenses related to managing our properties and other investments, the advisory fee we pay to the Advisor and general corporate expenses.

In addition to our current liquidity, we obtain incremental liquidity through the sale of shares of our common stock in our continuous public offering and private offerings, from which we have received net proceeds of $2.2 billion as of September 30, 2023.

Capital Uses

During periods when we are selling more shares than we are repurchasing, we primarily use our capital to acquire our investments, which we also fund with other capital resources. During periods when we are repurchasing more shares than we are selling, we primarily use our capital to fund repurchases. In May 2023, we received repurchase requests that exceeded the 2% monthly limit under our share repurchase plan. Our board of directors, including all of our independent directors, unanimously authorized repurchases in excess of the 2% limit for May

60

2023 such that 100% of share repurchase requests timely received in May 2023 were satisfied. We continue to believe that our current liquidity position is sufficient to meet the needs of our business, and all repurchase requests from our inception through September 30, 2023 have been satisfied.

In addition, we may have other funding obligations, which we expect to satisfy with the cash flows generated from our investments and our capital resources described above. Such obligations may include distributions to our stockholders, operating expenses, capital expenditures, repayment of indebtedness, and debt service on our outstanding indebtedness. Our operating expenses include, among other things, the advisory fee we pay to the Advisor, which will impact our liquidity.

The following table provides a breakdown of the net change in our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 ($ in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023			2022
Cash flows provided by operating activities	$	58,481		$	55,082
Cash flows used in investing activities		(43,490	)		(1,066,457	)
Cash flows (used in) provided by financing activities		(39,095	)		1,034,044
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	(24,104	)	$	22,669

Cash flows provided by operating activities increased $3.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the corresponding period in 2022. The increase was due to growth in the size of our portfolio.

Cash flows used in investing activities decreased $1,023.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the corresponding period in 2022 due primarily to a $677.9 million decrease in acquisitions of real estate, a decrease in loan originations and fundings of $248.5 million, and reduced net purchases of real estate-related securities and real estate debt of $101.7 million.

Cash flows (used in) provided by financing activities decreased by $1,073.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the corresponding period in 2022 primarily due to a $648.7 million decrease in proceeds from the issuance of common stock and subscriptions received in advance, along with a decrease in proceeds from the sale of loan participations of $174.0 million, a decrease in proceeds from our note payable of $69.3 million and an increase in common stock repurchases of $238.7 million, partially offset by a decrease in net repayments on the Credit Facility of $69.0 million.

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations

We believe funds from operations (“FFO”) is a meaningful supplemental non-GAAP operating metric, which should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income (loss) and cash provided by operating activities as a measure of operating performance. Our consolidated financial statements are presented under historical cost accounting which, among other things, requires depreciation of real estate investments to be calculated on a straight-line basis. As a result, our operating results imply that the value of our real estate investments will decrease evenly over a set time period. However, we believe that the value of real estate investments will fluctuate over time based on market conditions and as such, depreciation under historical cost accounting may be less informative. FFO is a standard REIT industry metric defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”).

61

FFO, as defined by NAREIT and presented below, is calculated as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of depreciable real property and impairment write-downs on depreciable real property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization.

We also believe that Adjusted FFO (“AFFO”) is a meaningful supplemental non-GAAP disclosure of our operating results which should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income (loss) and cash provided by operating activities as a measure of operating performance. AFFO further adjusts FFO in order for our operating results to reflect the specific characteristics of our business by adjusting for items we believe are not related to our core operations. Our adjustments to FFO to arrive to AFFO include straight-line rental income, amortization of above-and below-market lease intangibles, amortization of deferred financing costs and mortgage discount, organization costs, unrealized gains or losses from changes in fair value of real estate-related securities and real estate debt, unrealized loss on commercial mortgage loans and note payable, amortization of restricted stock awards and unrealized loss or income from investments in international affiliated funds. AFFO is not defined by NAREIT and our calculation of AFFO may not be comparable to the disclosures made by other REITs.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) under GAAP to FFO and to AFFO ($ in thousands):

FFO and AFFO should not be considered to be more relevant or accurate than the current GAAP methodology in calculating net income (loss) or in evaluating our operating performance. In addition, FFO and AFFO should not

62

be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) as indications of our performance or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities as indications of our liquidity, but rather should be reviewed in conjunction with these and other GAAP measurements. Further, FFO and AFFO are not intended to be used as liquidity measures indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders.

Distribution Policy

We intend to distribute sufficient income so that we satisfy the requirements for qualification as a REIT. In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute 90% of our annual REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and excluding net capital gains, to our stockholders. Our distribution policy is set by our board of directors and is subject to change based on available cash flows. We cannot guarantee the amount of distributions paid, if any. Our stockholders will not be entitled to receive a distribution if the shares are repurchased prior to the time of the applicable record date.

Our distribution policy reflects our intention to pay distributions monthly, subject to the discretion of the board of directors. The net distribution varies for each class based on the applicable stockholder servicing fee and advisory fee, which is deducted from the monthly distribution per share and paid directly to the applicable recipient.

Distributions

We declare monthly distributions for each class of our common stock which are generally paid within 30 days after month-end. Each class of our common stock received the same gross distribution per share, which was $0.2055 and $0.6279 per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The net distribution varies for each class based on the applicable stockholder servicing fee and advisory fee, which are deducted from the monthly distribution per share.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we declared and paid distributions of $29.3 million and $89.6 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we declared and paid distributions in the amount of $27.5 million and $67.8 million, respectively. The September 2023 distribution was declared and paid in October 2023.

The following tables detail the aggregate distribution declared and paid for each of our share classes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023:

Net Asset Value

Our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, has adopted valuation guidelines that contain a comprehensive set of methodologies to be used in connection with the calculation of our NAV. The overarching principle of these guidelines is to produce a valuation that represents a fair and accurate estimate of the value of our investments or the price that would be received for our investments in an arm’s-length transaction between market participants, less our liabilities. These valuation guidelines are largely based upon standard industry practices used by private, open-end real estate funds and are administered by the Advisor.

As a public company, we are required to issue financial statements based on historical cost in accordance with GAAP, which are subject to an independent audit. To calculate our NAV for purposes of establishing a purchase and repurchase price for our shares, we have adopted a model that adjusts the value of our assets from historical cost to fair value in accordance with the GAAP principles set forth in FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. However, our valuation procedures and our NAV are not subject to independent audit. Our NAV may differ from equity reflected on our audited financial statements, even if we are required to adopt a fair value basis of accounting for GAAP financial statement purposes in the future. Because these fair value calculations involve significant professional judgment in the application of both observable and unobservable attributes, the calculated fair value of our assets may differ from their actual realizable value or future fair value. Furthermore, no rule or regulation requires that we calculate NAV in a certain way. While we believe our NAV calculation methodologies are consistent with standard industry principles, there is no established practice among public REITs, whether listed or not, for calculating NAV in order to establish a purchase and repurchase price. As a result, other public REITs may use different methodologies or assumptions to determine NAV.

64

The following valuation methods are used for purposes of calculating our NAV:

• Investments in real property are valued by our independent valuation advisor, SitusAMC Real Estate Valuation Services, LLC (“SitusAMC”), using the income approach’s discounted cash flow method. The discounted cash flow method takes into consideration all contractual rent payments over the life of the lease term offset by any capitalized expenditures. SitusAMC may supplement the discounted cash flow analysis with a sales comparison approach and the income approach’s direct capitalization method, but typically reconciles exclusively to the discounted cash flow method. Following the table below that sets forth our NAV calculation is a sensitivity analysis for our investments in real property.

• Investments in commercial mortgage loans are valued by SitusAMC using the income approach’s discounted cash flow method. When used to value commercial mortgage loans, this method discounts the scheduled monthly interest payments at a market discount rate. The market discount rate takes into consideration a number of factors specific to the property (remaining term, loan-to-value ratio and quality of property) and market (capital market flows, current Treasury rates and quoted lending spreads).

• Investments in International Affiliated Funds are included in our NAV at the value reported by each funds’ manager, which is calculated in accordance with the manager’s valuation policy. Investments in the International Affiliated Funds are generally valued using a discounted cash flow analysis supplemented by a direct capitalization analysis as provided by an independent third party.

• Investments in real estate-related securities are valued on the basis of publicly available market quotations or at fair value determined in accordance with GAAP.

• Investments in real estate debt consist of CMBS. We classify CMBS as trading securities and the Advisor generally values such CMBS on the basis of publicly available market quotations or at fair value determined in accordance with GAAP. We generally determine the fair value of our investments in real estate debt by utilizing third-party service providers whenever available.

• Liabilities include the fees payable to the Advisor and the Dealer Manager, accounts payable, accrued operating expenses, property-level mortgages, any portfolio-level credit facilities and other liabilities. Other than property-level mortgages, we include the cost basis of our liabilities as part of NAV, which approximates fair value. These carrying amounts are meant to reasonably approximate fair value due to the liquid and short-term nature of the instruments. We include as part of NAV the fair value of our property-level mortgages, which are valued quarterly by SitusAMC using the income approach’s discounted cash flow method.

At the beginning of each calendar year, the Advisor develops a valuation plan with the objective of having each of our wholly owned properties valued each quarter by an appraisal, except for newly acquired properties as described below. Our independent valuation advisor relies in part on property-level information provided by the Advisor, including (1) historical and projected operating revenues and expenses of the property, (2) lease agreements with respect to the property and (3) information regarding recent or planned capital expenditures. Appraisals are performed in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics of the Appraisal Institute and the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practices of The Appraisal Foundation, or the similar industry standards for the country where the property appraisal is conducted. Each appraisal must be reviewed, approved and signed by an individual with the professional designation of MAI (Member of the Appraisal Institute) or similar designation or, for international appraisals, a public or other certified expert for real estate valuations. Our independent valuation advisor generally performs the appraisals, but in its discretion, may engage other independent valuation firms to provide appraisals of certain of our properties. Any appraisal provided by a firm other than our independent valuation advisor is performed in accordance with our valuation guidelines and is not incorporated into the calculation of our NAV until our independent valuation advisor has confirmed the reasonableness of such appraisal.

65

Wholly owned properties and joint ventures may be valued more frequently than quarterly under certain circumstances. If, in the opinion of the Advisor an event becomes known to the Advisor (including through communication with our independent valuation advisor) that is likely to have any material impact on previously provided estimated values of the affected properties, the Advisor will notify our independent valuation advisor. If in the opinion of our independent valuation advisor, such event is likely to have an impact on a previously provided value of the affected properties, our independent valuation advisor will recommend intra-quarter valuation adjustments that will be incorporated into our NAV calculation. For example, an unexpected termination or renewal of a material lease, a material change in vacancies, an unanticipated structural or environmental event at a property or capital market events may cause the value of a wholly owned property to change materially. Once the independent valuation advisor has communicated the adjusted estimate of property value to the Advisor, the Advisor will cause such adjusted value to be included in our monthly NAV calculation. Any such adjustments will be estimates of the market impact of material events to the appraised value of the property, based on assumptions and judgments that may or may not prove to be correct and may also be based on limited information readily available at that time. In general, we expect that any estimates of value or interim appraisals will be performed as soon as possible after a determination by the Advisor that a material change has occurred and the financial effects of such change are quantifiable by the independent valuation advisor. However, rapidly changing market conditions or material events may not be immediately reflected in our NAV. The resulting potential disparity in our NAV may inure to the benefit of stockholders whose shares are repurchased or new purchasers of our common stock, depending on whether our published NAV per share for such class is overstated or understated.

In accordance with the valuation guidelines, our fund administrator calculates our NAV per share for each class of our common stock as of the last calendar day of each month, using a process that reflects several components (each as described above), including the estimated fair value of (1) each of our properties based upon individual appraisal reports provided periodically by third-party independent valuation firms and reviewed by our independent valuation advisor, (2) our real estate-related assets for which third-party market quotes are available, (3) our other real estate-related assets, if any, and (4) our other assets and liabilities. The NAV per share for our share classes may differ because stockholder servicing fees allocable to a specific class of shares are only included in the NAV calculation for that class and the advisory fee allocable to the Class N shares differs from the advisory fee allocable to the other share classes.

At the end of each month, before taking into consideration additional issuances of shares of capital stock, share repurchases or class-specific expense accruals for that month, any change in our aggregate NAV (whether an increase or decrease) is allocated among each class of shares based on each class’s relative percentage of the previous aggregate NAV plus issuances of shares that were effective on the first calendar day of such month. The NAV calculation is available generally within 15 calendar days after the end of the applicable month. Changes in our monthly NAV include, without limitation, accruals of our net portfolio income, interest expense, the advisory fee, distributions, unrealized/realized gains and losses on assets, any applicable organization and offering costs and any expense reimbursements. Changes in our monthly NAV also includes material non-recurring events, such as capital expenditures and material property acquisitions and dispositions occurring during the month. On an ongoing basis, the Advisor will adjust the accruals to reflect actual operating results and the outstanding receivable, payable and other account balances resulting from the accumulation of monthly accruals for which financial information is available.

We reimburse the Advisor for any organization and offering expenses that it incurs on our behalf as and when incurred. These expenses include legal, accounting, printing, mailing and filing fees and expenses, due diligence expenses of participating broker-dealers supported by detailed and itemized invoices, costs in connection with preparing sales materials, design and website expenses, fees and expenses of our transfer agent, fees to attend retail seminars sponsored by participating broker-dealers and reimbursements for customary travel, lodging and meals, but exclude upfront selling commissions, dealer manager fees and stockholder servicing fees. After the termination of each public offering, the Advisor has agreed to reimburse us to the extent that the organization and offering expenses that we incur with respect to that offering exceed 15% of the gross proceeds from such

66

offering. In connection with our initial public offering, the Advisor advanced $4.6 million of our organization and offering expenses on our behalf from our inception through December 2018. We will reimburse the Advisor for these organization and offering expenses ratably over the 60 months following the earlier of the date our NAV first reaches $1 billion, which occurred on October 31, 2021, or January 31, 2023. Such expenses will not be deducted from our NAV until they are payable to the Advisor.

Following the aggregation of the net asset values of our investments, the addition of any other assets (such as cash on hand) and the deduction of any other liabilities, our fund administrator incorporates any class-specific adjustments to our NAV, including additional issuances and repurchases of our common stock and accruals of class-specific stockholder servicing fees and advisory fees. For each applicable class of shares, each of the stockholder servicing fee and the advisory fee is calculated as a percentage of the aggregate NAV for such class of shares. The declaration of distributions reduces the NAV for each class of our common stock in an amount equal to the accrual of our liability to pay any such distribution to our stockholders of record of each class. NAV per share for each class is calculated by dividing such class’s NAV at the end of each month by the number of shares outstanding for that class at the end of such month.

The purchase price per share for each class of our common stock will generally equal our prior month’s NAV per share, as determined monthly, plus applicable selling commissions and dealer manager fees. Our NAV for each class of shares is based on the net asset values of our investments (including real estate-related securities, real estate debt, commercial mortgage loans and international affiliate funds), the addition of any other assets (such as cash on hand) and the deduction of any liabilities and stockholder servicing fees applicable to such class of shares.

The following table provides a breakdown of the major components of our NAV as of September 30, 2023 ($ and shares in thousands):

(1) Stockholder servicing fees only apply to Class T, Class S and Class D shares. For purposes of NAV we recognize the stockholder servicing fee as a reduction of NAV on a monthly basis as such fee is paid. Under GAAP, we accrue the full cost of the stockholder servicing fee as an offering cost at the time we sell Class T, Class S and Class D shares. As of September 30, 2023, we have accrued under GAAP approximately $46.1 million of stockholder servicing fees payable to the Dealer Manager related to the Class T, Class S and Class D shares sold.

(1) The Advisor and its affiliates agreed to advance organization and offering costs on our behalf through December 31, 2018 and had incurred organization and offering expenses of $4.6 million. Organization costs of $1.1 million are expensed and Offering costs of $3.5 million is a component of equity in the form of additional paid-in capital. For NAV, such costs will be recognized as a reduction to NAV as they are reimbursed over 60 months commencing in October 2021, the date the NAV reached $1.0 billion. As of September 30, 2023, we have reimbursed the Advisor $1.8 million for such costs.

(2) Accrued stockholder servicing fee represents the accrual for the full cost of the stockholder servicing fee for Class T, Class S and Class D shares. Under GAAP, we accrue the full cost of the stockholder servicing fee payable over the life of each share (assuming such share remains outstanding the length of time required to pay the maximum stockholder servicing fee) as an offering cost at the time we sold the shares. For purposes of NAV, we recognize the stockholder servicing fee as a reduction of NAV on a monthly basis as such fee is paid.

(3) Our investments in real estate are presented under historical cost in our GAAP consolidated financial statements. Additionally, our mortgage notes and revolving credit facility (collectively referred to as “Debt”) are presented at their carrying value in our GAAP consolidated financial statements. As such, any changes in the fair market value of our investments in real estate and debt are not included in our GAAP results. For purposes of determining our NAV, our investments in real estate and our debt are recorded at fair value.

(4) In accordance with GAAP, we depreciate our investments in real estate and amortize certain other assets and liabilities. Such depreciation and amortization is not recorded for purposes of determining our NAV.

Limitations and Risks

As with any valuation methodology, our methodology is based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not be accurate or complete. Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could derive a different NAV per share. Accordingly, with respect to our NAV per share, we can provide no assurance that:

(1) a stockholder would be able to realize this NAV per share upon attempting to resell his or her shares;

(2) we would be able to achieve, for our stockholders, the NAV per share, upon a listing of our shares of common stock on a national securities exchange, selling our real estate portfolio, or merging with another company; or

(3) the NAV per share, or the methodologies relied upon to estimate the NAV per share, will be found by any regulatory authority to comply with any regulatory requirements.

Furthermore, the NAV per share was calculated as of a particular point in time. The NAV per share will fluctuate over time in response to, among other things, changes in real estate market fundamentals, capital markets activities and attributes specific to the properties and assets within our portfolio.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP involves significant judgments and assumptions and requires estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. These judgments affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our consolidated financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. We consider our accounting policies over investments in real estate and revenue recognition to be our critical accounting estimates. See Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further descriptions of such critical accounting estimates along with other significant accounting policy disclosures.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk with respect to our variable-rate indebtedness used to maintain liquidity, fund capital expenditures and expand our investment portfolio and operations. An increase in interest rates would directly result in higher interest expense costs. In addition, restrictions upon the availability of real estate financing or high interest rates for real estate loans could adversely affect our ability to dispose of real estate in the future. We may seek to manage or mitigate our exposure to interest rate risk by utilizing a mix of fixed and floating rate financings with staggered maturities and through interest rate protection agreements to fix or cap a portion of our variable rate debt. As of September 30, 2023, the outstanding principal balance of our variable rate indebtedness was $315.3 million and consisted of our Credit Facility, DDTL Facility, and Note Payable, all of which are indexed to one-month U.S. Dollar-denominated SOFR.

The Credit Facility and DDTL Facility, along with our Note Payable, are variable rate and are indexed to the one-month U.S. dollar denominated SOFR. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, a 10 basis point increase in the one-month U.S. denominated SOFR would have resulted in increased interest expense of approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

Certain of our mortgage loans are variable and indexed to the three-month Copenhagen Interbank Offered Rate (“CIBOR”). We have executed interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of DKK 142,452 as of September 30, 2023 to hedge the risk of increasing interest rates. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, a 10 basis point increase in the three-month CIBOR would have resulted in no change to interest expense, net of the impact of our interest rate swaps.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. If the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty will owe us, which creates credit risk for us. If the fair value

70

of a derivative contract is negative, we will owe the counterparty and, therefore, do not have credit risk. We seek to minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties. We had one interest rate contract as of September 30, 2023.

Foreign Currency Risk

We may be exposed to currency risks related to our direct international investments along with our investments in the International Affiliated Funds. We may seek to manage or mitigate our exposure to currency risks through the use of a wide variety of derivative financial instruments. We did not have any foreign currency derivatives as of September 30, 2023.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, was made under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). Based upon this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (a) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by SEC rules and forms and (b) include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

We have sold Class I shares to feeder vehicles created primarily to hold Class I shares and offer indirect interests in such shares to non-U.S. persons as set forth in the table below. The offer and sale of Class I shares to the feeder vehicles was exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) and Regulation S thereunder.

Date of Unregistered Sale	Number of Class I Common Shares Issued to Feeder Vehicles		Consideration
July 1, 2023		120,209	$	1,478,576
August 1, 2023		71,398	$	876,771
September 1, 2023		112,338	$	1,378,383

Share Repurchase Plan

We have adopted a share repurchase plan, whereby on a monthly basis, stockholders may request that we repurchase all or any portion of their shares. We may choose to repurchase all, some or none of the shares that have been requested to be repurchased at the end of any particular month, in our discretion, subject to any limitations in the share repurchase plan. The total amount of aggregate repurchases of shares will be limited to 2% of the aggregate NAV per month (measured using the aggregate NAV as of the end of the immediately preceding month) and 5% of the aggregate NAV per calendar quarter (measured using the aggregate NAV as of the end of the immediately preceding quarter). Shares would be repurchased at a price equal to the transaction price on the applicable repurchase date, subject to any early repurchase deduction. Shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year would be repurchased at 95% of the transaction price. Due to the illiquid nature of investments in real estate, we may not have sufficient liquid resources to fund repurchase requests and have established limitations on the amount of funds we may use for repurchases during any calendar month and quarter. Further, we may modify, suspend or terminate the share repurchase plan.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased shares of our common stock in the following amounts, which represented all of the share repurchase requests received for the same period.

Month of:	Total Number of Shares Repurchased		Repurchases as a Percentage of NAV(1)			Average Price Paid per Share		Total Number of Shares Repurchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs		Maximum Number of Shares Pending Repurchase Pursuant to Publicly Announced Plans or Programs(2)
July 2023		2,602,937		1.4336	%	$	12.26		2,602,937		—
August 2023		2,629,681		1.4490	%		12.25		2,629,681		—
