Organization And Formation Activities [Abstract]
Organization	1. Organization Essential Properties Realty Trust, Inc. (“EPRT Inc.” or the “Company”) is an internally managed real estate company that acquires, owns and manages primarily single-tenant properties that are net leased on a long-term basis to middle-market companies operating service-oriented or experience-based businesses. EPRT Inc. has a diversified portfolio that focuses on properties leased to tenants in businesses such as restaurants (including quick service, casual and family dining), car washes, automotive services, medical services, convenience stores, entertainment, early childhood education and health and fitness. EPRT Inc. generally acquires and leases freestanding, single-tenant commercial real estate facilities where a tenant services its customers and conducts activities that are essential to the generation of the tenant’s sales and profits. EPRT Inc. was organized on January 12, 2018 as a Maryland corporation and intends to qualify to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2018. On June 25, 2018, EPRT Inc. completed its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 32,500,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at an initial public offering price of $14.00 per share, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-225215), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). On July 24, 2018, EPRT Inc. issued an additional 2,772,191 shares of common stock at the initial public offering price of $14.00 per share pursuant to the partial exercise of an option granted to the underwriters of its IPO. N et proceeds from the IPO and the issuance of shares to underwriters, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other expenses, were $458.7 million Prior to the completion of the IPO, a number of formation transactions (the “Formation Transactions”) took place that were designed to facilitate the completion of the IPO. Among other things, on June 20, 2018, Essential Properties Realty Trust LLC (“EPRT LLC”) converted from a Delaware limited liability company into a Delaware limited partnership, changed its name to Essential Properties, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) and became the subsidiary through which EPRT Inc. holds substantially all of its assets and conducts its operations. Prior to the completion of the Formation Transactions, EPRT LLC was a wholly owned subsidiary of EPRT Holdings LLC (“EPRT Holdings” and, together with EPRT LLC, the “Predecessor”), and EPRT Holdings received 17,913,592 units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) in connection with EPRT LLC’s conversion into a Delaware limited partnership. Essential Properties OP G.P., LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of EPRT Inc., became the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Formation Transactions were accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control in the consolidated financial statements and the assets and liabilities of the Predecessor were recorded by EPRT Inc. at their historical carrying amounts. Concurrent with the completion of the IPO, EPRT Inc. received an additional $125.0 million investment from an affiliate of Eldridge Industries, LLC (“Eldridge”) in private placements (the “Concurrent Private Placement”) of 7,785,611 shares of EPRT Inc.’s common stock and 1,142,960 OP Units. EPRT Inc. contributed the net proceeds from the issuance of the 43,057,802 shares of common stock in its IPO (inclusive of the shares issued pursuant to the partial exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares) and the Concurrent Private Placement of common stock to Eldridge to the Operating Partnership in exchange for a like number of OP Units. On March 18, 2019, EPRT Inc. completed a follow-on offering (the “Follow-On Offering”) of 14,030,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, including 1,830,000 shares of common stock purchased by the underwriters pursuant to an option to purchase additional shares, at an offering price of $17.50 per share, pursuant to registration statements on Form S-11 (File Nos. 333-230188 and 333-230252) filed with the SEC under the Securities Act. N et proceeds from the Follow-On Offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other expenses, were $234.6 million The Predecessor EPRT LLC was formed on March 30, 2016 as a Delaware limited liability company by its initial sole member, SCF Funding LLC (the “Parent”). EPRT LLC commenced operations on March 30, 2016 and the affairs of EPRT LLC were managed by Stonebriar Finance Holdings LLC (the “Manager”). The Parent and Manager were ultimately wholly owned through a series of Delaware limited liability companies by Eldridge. EPRT LLC’s operating agreement (the “EPRT LLC Operating Agreement”) provided certain limitations on the liability of the Parent and the Manager. These limitations included 1) that neither the Parent nor the Manager shall be liable for the debts, obligations, or liabilities of EPRT LLC solely by reason of being a member or manager of EPRT LLC, 2) that neither the Parent nor the Manager shall be liable to EPRT LLC or to any member of EPRT LLC or other person or entity who may become party to the EPRT LLC Operating Agreement for any breach of the EPRT LLC Operating Agreement arising under or in connection with the EPRT LLC Operating Agreement except for any act or omission made in bad faith, and 3) EPRT LLC indemnifies the Parent, Manager and officers from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses except those resulting primarily from bad faith of the indemnitee. On January 31, 2017, EPRT LLC received additional capital contributions from Stonebriar Holdings LLC (“Stonebriar Holdings”) and members of EPRT LLC’s management (“EPRT Management”), and issued four classes of equity units: Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D. The Class A and Class C units have voting rights while the Class B and D units do not have voting rights. After these equity contributions, the Parent owned approximately 52.3% of EPRT LLC, Stonebriar Holdings owned approximately 45.7% and EPRT Management owned approximately 2.0%. On December 31, 2017, EPRT LLC reorganized (the “EPRT LLC Reorganization”) and the holders of the Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D units contributed all of their interests in EPRT LLC to EPRT Holdings in exchange for interests in EPRT Holdings with the same rights as the interests they held in EPRT LLC. The EPRT LLC Reorganization lacked economic substance, as the newly issued units of EPRT Holdings have the same rights and privileges as the previously issued units of EPRT LLC and there was no change in ownership percentages of the individual unitholders. As of December 31, 2017, EPRT LLC became a wholly owned subsidiary of EPRT Holdings. The EPRT LLC Reorganization was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control in the Predecessor’s consolidated financial statements and the assets and liabilities of EPRT LLC were recorded by EPRT Holdings at their historical carrying amounts.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and with the rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as filed with the SEC in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. Reclassification Certain amounts previously reported in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation of gain on dispositions of real estate, net on the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company has presented gain on dispositions of real estate, net as a component of income from operations in order to present gains and losses on dispositions of properties in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 360-10-45-5. This change in presentation was made for the prior period as the SEC has eliminated Rule 3-15(a) of Regulation S-X, which previously had required the Company to present gains and losses on sale of properties outside of continuing operations in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, the Company changed the presentation of its consolidated statements of stockholders’/members’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as the SEC extended the annual disclosure requirements for changes in stockholders’ equity in Rule 3-04 of Regulation S-X to interim periods, now requiring both the year-to-date information and subtotals for each interim period. Additionally, certain amounts previously reported in the consolidated statements of operations have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation of rental revenue (due to the adoption of the new lease accounting standard, as discussed further below), interest income and income tax expense. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and subsidiaries in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company held a 75.2% and 69.7% ownership interest in the Operating Partnership and the consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Operating Partnership as of these dates. See Note 15—Subsequent Events for changes in the ownership interest in the Operating Partnership subsequent to June 30, 2019. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Real Estate Investments Investments in real estate are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. The cost of investments in real estate reflects their purchase price or development cost. The Company evaluates each acquisition transaction to determine whether the acquired asset meets the definition of a business. Under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties accounted for as asset acquisitions to tangible and identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on their relative fair values. Tangible assets may include land, site improvements and buildings. Intangible assets may include the value of in-place leases and above- and below-market leases and other identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on lease or property specific characteristics. The Company incurs various costs in the leasing and development of its properties. Amounts paid to tenants that incentivize them to extend or otherwise amend an existing lease or to sign a new lease agreement are capitalized to lease incentive on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Tenant improvements are capitalized to building and improvements within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Costs incurred which are directly related to properties under development, which include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development costs, construction costs, interest costs and real estate taxes and insurance, are capitalized during the period of development as construction in progress. After the determination is made to capitalize a cost, it is allocated to the specific component of a project that benefited. Determination of when a development project commences and capitalization begins, and when a development project has reached substantial completion and is available for occupancy and capitalization must cease, involves a degree of judgment. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property with an in-place operating lease is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to the tangible assets based on the fair value of the tangible assets. The fair value of in-place leases is determined by considering estimates of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods, current market conditions, as well as costs to execute similar leases based on the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease. The Company estimates the cost to execute leases with terms similar to the remaining lease terms of the in-place leases, including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses. Factors the Company considers in this analysis include an estimate of the carrying costs during the 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, which primarily range from six to 12 months. The fair value of above- or below-market leases is recorded based on the net present value (using a discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amount to be paid pursuant to the in-place lease and the Company’s estimate of the fair market lease rate for the corresponding in-place lease, measured over the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease including any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases. In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company utilizes a number of sources, including real estate valuations prepared by independent valuation firms. The Company also considers information and other factors including market conditions, the industry that the tenant operates in, characteristics of the real estate, e.g., location, size, demographics, value and comparative rental rates, tenant credit profile and the importance of the location of the real estate to the operations of the tenant’s business. Additionally, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired. The Company uses the information obtained as a result of its pre-acquisition due diligence as part of its consideration of the accounting standard governing asset retirement obligations and, when necessary, will record an asset retirement obligation as part of the purchase price allocation. Real estate investments that are intended to be sold are designated as “held for sale” on the consolidated balance sheets at the lesser of carrying amount or fair value less estimated selling costs when they meet specific criteria to be presented as held for sale. Real estate investments are no longer depreciated when they are classified as held for sale. If the disposal, or intended disposal, of certain real estate investments represents a strategic shift that has had or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, the operations of such real estate investments would be presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for all applicable periods. Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings and 15 years for site improvements. During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded $8.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively, of depreciation on its real estate investments. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded $16.3 million and $10.9 million, respectively, of depreciation on its real estate investments. Lease incentives are amortized on a straight-line basis as a reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancellable terms of the respective leases. If a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of the lease incentive is charged to rental revenue. Construction in progress is not depreciated until the development has reached substantial completion. Tenant improvements are depreciated over the non-cancellable term of the related lease or their estimated useful life, whichever is shorter. Capitalized above-market lease values are amortized on a straight-line basis as a reduction of rental revenue over the remaining non-cancellable terms of the respective leases. Capitalized below-market lease values are accreted on a straight-line basis as an increase to rental revenue over the remaining non-cancellable terms of the respective leases including any below-market fixed rate renewal option periods. Capitalized above-market ground lease values are accreted as a reduction of property expenses over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Capitalized below-market ground lease values are amortized as an increase to property expenses over the remaining terms of the respective leases and any expected below-market renewal option periods where renewal is considered probable. The value of in-place leases, exclusive of the value of above-market and below-market lease intangibles, is amortized to depreciation and amortization expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining periods of the respective leases. If a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of each intangible, including in-place lease values, is charged to depreciation and amortization expense, while above- and below-market lease adjustments are recorded within rental revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. Loans Receivable The Company holds its loans receivable for long-term investment. Loans receivable are carried at amortized cost, including related unamortized discounts or premiums, if any. The Company recognizes interest income on loans receivable using the effective-interest method applied on a loan-by-loan basis. Direct costs associated with originating loans are offset against any related fees received and the balance, along with any premium or discount, is deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest income over the term of the related loan receivable using the effective-interest method. The Company periodically evaluates the collectability of its loans receivable, including accrued interest, by analyzing the underlying property‑level economics and trends, collateral value and quality and other relevant factors in determining the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses. A loan is determined to be impaired when, in management’s judgment based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Specific allowances for loan losses are provided for impaired loans on an individual loan basis in the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral less disposition costs. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had no allowance for loan losses recorded in its consolidated financial statements. Direct Financing Lease Receivables Certain of the Company’s real estate investment transactions are accounted for as direct financing leases. The Company records the direct financing lease receivables at their net investment, determined as the aggregate minimum lease payments and the estimated non-guaranteed residual value of the leased property less unearned income. The unearned income is recognized over the life of the related lease contracts so as to produce a constant rate of return on the net investment in the asset. The Company’s investment in direct financing lease receivables is reduced over the applicable lease term to its non-guaranteed residual value by the portion of rent allocated to the direct financing lease receivables. Subsequent to the adoption of ASC 842, Leases If and when an investment in direct financing lease receivables is identified for impairment evaluation, the Company will apply the guidance in both ASC 310, Receivables Leases Impairment of Long-Lived Assets If circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the asset for impairment. This review is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition. These estimates consider factors such as expected future operating income, market and other applicable trends and residual value, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If impairment exists due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a property, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property for properties to be held and used. For properties held for sale, the impairment loss is the adjustment to fair value less estimated cost to dispose of the asset. Impairment assessments have a direct impact on the consolidated statements of operations because recording an impairment loss results in an immediate negative adjustment to the consolidated statements of operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded a provision for impairment of real estate of $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded a provision for impairment of real estate of $1.9 million and $2.8 million, respectively. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in the Company’s bank accounts. The Company considers all cash balances and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company deposits cash with high quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to an insurance limit. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had deposits of $7.8 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of which $7.6 million and $4.0 million, respectively, were in excess of the amount insured by the FDIC. Although the Company bears risk to amounts in excess of those insured by the FDIC, it does not anticipate any losses as a result. Restricted Cash Restricted cash consists of cash held with the trustee for the Company’s Master Trust Funding Program (as defined in Note 6—Secured Borrowings). This restricted cash is used to make principal and interest payments on the Company’s secured borrowings, to pay trust expenses and to acquire future real estate investments which will be pledged as collateral under the Master Trust Funding Program. See Note 6—Secured Borrowings for further discussion. Adjustment to Rental Revenue for Tenant Credit/Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent and unbilled rent receivables and determines collectability by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. Prior to January 1, 2019, if the collectability of a receivable was in doubt, the accounts receivable and straight-line rent receivable balances were reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts on the consolidated balance sheets or a direct write-off of the receivable was recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The provision for doubtful accounts was included in property expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. If the accounts receivable balance or straight-line rent receivable balance was subsequently deemed to be uncollectible, such receivable amounts were written-off to the allowance for doubtful accounts. As of January 1, 2019, if the assessment of the collectability of substantially all payments due under a lease changes from probable to not probable, any difference between the rental revenue recognized to date and the lease payments that have been collected is recognized as a current period adjustment to rental revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0.2 million related to base rent receivable and recorded no allowance for doubtful accounts related to straight-line rent receivable. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized a current period adjustment to rental revenue of less than $0.1 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Deferred Financing Costs Financing costs related to establishing the Company’s 2018 Credit Facility and Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) were deferred and are being amortized as an increase to interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the term of the facility and are reported as a component of prepaid expenses and other assets, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Financing costs related to the issuance of the Company’s secured borrowings under the Master Trust Funding Program and Term Loan Facility (as defined below) were deferred and are being amortized as an increase to interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the term of the related debt instrument and are reported as a reduction of the related debt balance on the consolidated balance sheets. Derivative Instruments In the normal course of business, the Company uses derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, caps, options, floors and other interest rate derivative contracts, The Company records all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting. The accounting for subsequent changes in the fair value of these derivatives depends on whether each has been designed and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment. If the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting treatment (or for derivatives that do not qualify as hedges), any change in the fair value of these derivative instruments is recognized immediately in gains (losses) on derivative instruments in the consolidated statements of operations. If a derivative is designated and qualifies for cash flow hedge accounting treatment, the change in the estimated fair value of the derivative is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income to the extent that it is effective. Any ineffective portion of a change in derivative fair value is immediately recorded in earnings. Fair Value Measurement The Company estimates fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities based on the framework established in fair value accounting guidance. 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 at the measurement date (an exit price). The hierarchy described below prioritizes inputs to the valuation techniques used in measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities. This hierarchy maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring the most observable inputs to be used when available. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows: Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability. Level 3—Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques. Revenue Recognition The Company’s rental revenue is primarily rent received from tenants. Rent from tenants is recorded in accordance with the terms of each lease on a straight-line basis over the non-cancellable initial term of the lease from the later of the date of the commencement of the lease or the date of acquisition of the property subject to the lease. Rental revenue recognition begins when the tenant controls the space and continues through the term of the related lease. Because substantially all of the leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, the Company records a straight-line rent receivable and recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis through the expiration of the non-cancelable term of the lease. The Company takes into account whether the collectability of rents is reasonably assured in determining the amount of straight-line rent to record. Generally, the Company’s leases provide the tenant with one or more multi-year renewal options, subject to generally the same terms and conditions provided under the initial lease term, including rent increases. If economic incentives make it reasonably certain that an option period to extend the lease will be exercised, the Company will include these options in determining the non-cancelable term of the lease. The Company defers rental revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. These amounts are presented within accrued liabilities and other payables on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Certain properties in the Company’s investment portfolio are subject to leases that provide for contingent rent based on a percentage of the tenant’s gross sales. For these leases, the Company recognizes contingent rental revenue when the threshold upon which the contingent lease payment is based is actually reached. During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded contingent rent of $0.2 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded contingent rent of $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Organizational Costs Costs related to the initial organization of the Company and its subsidiaries are expensed as they are incurred and are recorded within general and administrative expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Offering Costs In connection with the IPO and the Follow-On Offering, the Company incurred legal, accounting and other offering-related costs. Such costs have been deducted from the gross proceeds of each of the IPO and Follow-On Offering. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had capitalized a total of $46.0 million and $35.1 million, respectively, of such costs in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These costs are presented as a reduction of additional paid-in capital as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Gains and Losses on Dispositions of Real Estate On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2017-05, Other Income — Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets Income Taxes EPRT Inc. intends to elect to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2018. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that 90% of ordinary “REIT taxable income” (as determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gains) be distributed. As a REIT, the Company will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent that it meets the organizational and operational requirements and its distributions equal or exceed REIT taxable income. For the period subsequent to the effective date of our intended REIT election, the Company intends to meet the organizational and operational requirements and expects distributions to exceed net taxable income. Accordingly, no provision has been made for U.S. federal income taxes. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to state and local income and franchise taxes, and to federal income and excise tax on its undistributed income. Franchise taxes and federal excise taxes on the Company’s undistributed income, if any, are included in general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through the Company's taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to federal, state, and local taxes. T he Company analyzes its tax filing positions in all of the U.S. federal, state and local tax jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as for all open tax years in such jurisdictions. The Company follows a two-step process to evaluate uncertain tax positions. Step one, recognition, occurs when an entity concludes that a tax position, based solely on its technical merits, is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination. Step two, measurement, determines the amount of benefit that is more-likely-than-not to be realized upon settlement. Derecognition of a tax position that was previously recognized would occur when the Company subsequently determines that a tax position no longer meets the more-likely-than-not threshold of being sustained. The use of a valuation allowance as a substitute for derecognition of tax positions is prohibited. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company did not record any accruals for uncertain tax positions. The Company’s policy is to classify interest expense and penalties in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not record any interest or penalties, and there are no interest or penalties accrued at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The 2018, 2017 and 2016 taxable years remain open to examination by federal and state taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. Equity-Based Compensation In 2019 and 2018, EPRT Inc. granted shares of restricted common stock and restricted share units (“RSUs”) to its directors, executive officers and other employees that vest over multiple periods, subject to the recipient’s continued service. In 2019, EPRT Inc. granted performance-based RSUs to its executive officers, the final number of which is determined based off of market and subjective performance conditions and which vest over a multi-year period, subject to the recipient’s continued service. In 2017, the Predecessor granted unit-based compensation awards to certain of its employees and managers, as well as non-employees, consisting of units that vest over a multi-year period, subject to the recipient’s continued service. The Company accounts for the restricted common stock, RSUs and unit-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires that such compensation be recognized in the financial statements based on their estimated grant-date fair value. The value of such awards is recognized as compensation expense in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations over the requisite service periods. The Company recognizes compensation expense for equity-based compensation using the straight-line method based on the terms of the individual grant. Variable Interest Entities The FASB provides guidance for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity (a “VIE”). VIEs are defined as entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. A VIE is required to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is the party that (i) has the power to control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Following the completion of the Formation Transactions, the Company concluded that the Operating Partnership is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary, as the Company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the Operating Partnership . Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the Operating Partnership. The assets and liabilities of the Operating Partnership are consolidated and reported as assets and liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. As of he Company concluded that an entity which it had provided a $5.7 million mortgage loan receivable was a VIE because the terms of the loan agreement limited the entity’s ability to absorb expected losses or the entity’s right to receive expected residual returns. However, the Company was not the primary beneficiary of the entity, because the Company did not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. As of the carrying amount of the Company’s loan receivable with this entity was $5.7 million, and the Company’s maximum exposure to loss in this entity is limited to the carrying amount of its investment. The Company had no liabilities associated with this investment as of . In March 2019 he Company had no loan receivable from this entity as of June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2019 he Company concluded that three entities to which it had provided mortgage loans were VIEs because the entities’ equity is not sufficien

Investments [Abstract]
Investments	3. Investments As of June 30, 2019, the Company had investments in 785 property locations, including six developments in progress and one undeveloped land parcel, and four mortgage loans receivable secured by four additional properties. Of these 785 property locations, 773 represented owned properties (of which five were subject to leases accounted for as direct financing leases) and 12 represented ground lease interests (of which one building was subject to a lease accounted for as a direct financing lease).

Real Estate Investments The Company’s investment properties are leased to tenants under long-term operating leases that typically include one or more renewal options. See Note 11—Leases for detailed information about the Company’s leases. Loans and Direct Financing Lease Receivables As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had four loans receivable outstanding with an aggregate carrying amount of $28.1 million and 14.9 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the borrowers under two of the Company’s loans receivable, with carrying values of $5.7 million and $3.5 million, settled or repaid the loans in full.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company entered into two loan receivable arrangements. The Company’s loans receivable as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are summarized as follows (dollar amounts in thousands): Principal Balance Outstanding Loan Type Monthly Payment Number of Secured Properties Interest Rate Maturity Date June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Mortgage (1)(2) Interest only 1 10.00% 2021 $ 1,263 $ 2,376 Mortgage (1) Interest only 7.55% 2019 — 5,748 Mortgage (1)(2) Interest only 5.25% 2019 — 3,500 Mortgage (1)(2) Interest only 3 8.80% 2039 16,800 — Mortgage (2) Principal + Interest 2 8.10% 2059 5,125 — Development construction (2)(3) Principal + Interest 1 8.00% 2058 3,429 3,230 Leasehold interest (4) Principal + Interest (4) 10.69% 2039 1,435 — Net investment $ 28,052 $ 14,854 (1 ) Loan requires monthly payments of interest only with a balloon payment due at maturity. (2) Loan allows for prepayments in whole or in part without penalty. (3) Loan is secured by a mortgage on the building and improvements at the development property. The Company provides periodic funding to the borrower under this arrangement as construction progresses. Monthly payments are made based on a 40-year amortization schedule with any outstanding principal balance due at maturity or earlier upon the occurrence of certain other events. The mortgaged property is subject to a ground lease arrangement with the Company, as landlord, and borrower, as tenant. If the tenant does not exercise its right to renew the ground lease at the end of its initial lease term, which ranges from 15 to 20 years, the balance of the mortgage loan receivable will be forgiven, and the Company will retain title to the mortgaged property. (4) This leasehold interest transaction is accounted for as a loan receivable as the lease of two land parcels contains an option for the lessee to repurchase the leased assets in 2024 or 2025. Scheduled principal payments due to be received under the Company’s loans receivable as of June 30, 2019 are as follows: (in thousands) Loans Receivable July 1, 2019 - December 31, 2019 $ 7 2020 25 2021 1,303 2022 43 2023 46 Thereafter 26,628 Total $ 28,052 As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had $2.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively, of net investments accounted for as direct financing lease receivables.

Line Of Credit Facility [Abstract]
Credit Facility	4. Credit Facility On June 25, 2018, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with a group of lenders for a four-year, senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “2018 Credit Facility”) with aggregate total revolving credit commitments of $300.0 million. Barclays Bank PLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Goldman Sachs Bank USA were the joint lead arrangers of the 2018 Credit Facility, with Barclays Bank PLC acting as administrative agent. The 2018 Credit Facility had a term of four years, with an extension option of up to 12-months exercisable by the Company, subject to certain conditions, and initially bore interest at an annual rate of applicable LIBOR, as defined therein, plus an applicable margin between 1.45% and 2.15%; or (ii) the prime rate plus an applicable margin of between 0.45% and 1.15%. The 2018 Credit Facility provides an accordion feature to increase, subject to certain conditions, the maximum availability of the 2018 Credit Facility by up to an additional On April 12, 2019, the Company entered into a restated credit agreement (the “Amended Credit Facility”) with a group of lenders, The Revolving Credit Facility has a term of four years from April 12, 2019, with an extension option of up to 12-months exercisable by the Operating Partnership, subject to certain conditions, and the Term Loan Facility has a term of five years from the effective date of the amended agreement. The loans under each of the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan Facility initially bear interest at an annual rate of applicable LIBOR plus the applicable margin (which applicable margin varies between the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan Facility). The applicable LIBOR will be the rate with a term equivalent to the interest period applicable to the relevant borrowing. The applicable margin will initially be a spread set according to a leverage-based pricing grid. At the Operating Partnership’s election, on and after receipt of an investment grade corporate credit rating from Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) or Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”), the applicable margin will be a spread set according to the Company’s corporate credit ratings by S&P and/or Moody’s. The Amended Credit Facility is freely pre-payable at any time and is mandatorily pre-payable if borrowings exceed the borrowing base or the facility limit. The Operating Partnership may re-borrow amounts paid down on the Revolving Credit Facility but not on the Term Loan Facility. The Operating Partnership is required to pay revolving credit fees throughout the term of the Amended Credit Facility based upon its usage of the Revolving Credit Facility, at a rate which depends on its usage of the Revolving Credit Facility during the period before the Company receives an investment grade corporate credit rating from S&P or Moody’s, and which rate shall be based on the corporate credit rating from S&P and/or Moody’s after the time, if applicable, the Company receives such a rating. The Operating Partnership is required to pay a ticking fee on the Term Loan Facility for the period from April 12, 2019 through the date the term loans are drawn. The Amended Credit Facility has an accordion feature to increase, subject to certain conditions, the maximum availability of credit (either through increased revolving commitments or additional term loans) by up to $200 million. The Operating Partnership is the borrower under the Amended Credit Facility, and the Company and each of its subsidiaries that owns a direct or indirect interest in an eligible real property asset are guarantors under the Amended Credit Facility. The Company is subject to financial covenants under the Amended Credit Facility, including maintaining: a limitation on total consolidated leverage of not more than 60% of the Company’s total consolidated assets with a step up on two non-consecutive occasions to 65%, at the Operating Partnership’s election, for two consecutive quarters each following a material acquisition; a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.50x; a consolidated tangible net worth of at least 75% of the Company’s tangible net worth at the date of the Amended Credit Facility plus 75% of future net equity proceeds; a consolidated secured leverage ratio of not more than 50% of the Company’s total consolidated assets; a secured recourse debt ratio of not more than 10% of the Company’s total consolidated assets; an unencumbered leverage ratio of not more than 60% of the Company’s consolidated unencumbered assets with a step up on two non-consecutive occasions to 65%, at the Operating Partnership’s election, for two consecutive quarters each following a material acquisition; and an unencumbered interest coverage ratio of at least 1.75x. Additionally, the Amended Credit Facility restricts the Company’s ability to pay distributions to its stockholders under certain circumstances. However, the Company may make distributions to the extent necessary to qualify or maintain its qualification as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Amended Credit Facility contains certain covenants that, subject to exceptions, limit or restrict the Company’s incurrence of indebtedness and liens, disposition of assets, transactions with affiliates, mergers and fundamental changes, modification of organizational documents, changes to fiscal periods, making of investments, negative pledge clauses and lines of business and REIT qualification. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants and was not in default of any other provisions under the Amended Credit Facility and the 2018 Credit Facility as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative and Hedging Activities	5. Derivative and Hedging Activities The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. These derivatives are considered cash flow hedges and are recorded on a gross basis at fair value. Subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2017-12, assessments of hedge effectiveness are performed quarterly using either a qualitative or quantitative approach. The Company recognizes the entire change in the fair value in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and the change is reflected as derivative changes in fair value in the supplemental disclosures of non-cash financing activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows. The amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income will subsequently be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s borrowings under its Term Loan Facility. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates that $0.4 million will be reclassified from other comprehensive income as an increase to interest expense. The Company does not have netting arrangements related to its derivatives. The use of derivative financial instruments carries certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements are not able to perform under the agreements. To mitigate this risk, the Company only enters into derivative financial instruments with counterparties with high credit ratings and with major financial institutions with which the Company and its affiliates may also have other financial relationships. The Company does not anticipate that any of the counterparties will fail to meet their obligations. As of June 30, 2019, there were no events of default related to the interest rate swaps. The following table summarizes the notional amount at inception and fair value of these instruments on the Company's balance sheet as of June 30, 2019 (dollars amounts in thousands). Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments Fixed Rate Paid by Company Variable Rate Paid by Bank Effective Date Maturity Date Notional Value (1) Fair Value of Asset/(Liability) (2) Interest Rate Swap 2.06% 1 month LIBOR 5/14/2019 4/12/2024 $ 100,000 $ (1,930 ) Interest Rate Swap 2.06% 1 month LIBOR 5/14/2019 4/12/2024 50,000 (969 ) Interest Rate Swap 2.07% 1 month LIBOR 5/14/2019 4/12/2024 50,000 (974 ) $ 200,000 $ (3,873 ) (1) Notional value indicates the extent of the Company’s involvement in these instruments, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks. (2) Derivatives in a liability position are included within accrued liabilities and other payables on Company’s consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded a loss on the change in the fair value of its interest rate swaps of $0.1 million, which is included in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company either defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. As of June 30, 2019, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position including accrued interest but excluding any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements was $4.0 million. As of June 30, 2019, the Company has not posted any collateral related to these agreements and was not in breach of any agreement provisions. If the Company had breached any of these provisions, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their aggregate termination value of $4.0 million as of June 30, 2019.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Secured Borrowings	6. Secured Borrowings In the normal course of business, the Company transfers financial assets in various transactions with Special Purpose Entities (“SPE”) determined to be VIEs, which primarily consist of securitization trusts established for a limited purpose (the “Master Trust Funding Program”). These SPEs are formed for the purpose of securitization transactions in which the Company transfers assets to an SPE, which then issues to investors various forms of debt obligations supported by those assets. In these securitization transactions, the Company typically receives cash from the SPE as proceeds for the transferred assets and retains the rights and obligations to service the transferred assets in accordance with servicing guidelines. All debt obligations issued from the VIEs are non-recourse to the Company. In accordance with the accounting guidance for asset transfers, the Company considers any ongoing involvement with transferred assets in determining whether the assets can be derecognized from the balance sheets. For transactions that do not meet the requirements for derecognition and remain on the consolidated balance sheets, the transferred assets may not be pledged or exchanged by the Company. The Company evaluates its interest in certain entities to determine if these entities meet the definition of a VIE and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary and, therefore, should consolidate the entity based on the variable interests it held both at inception and when there was a change in circumstances that required a reconsideration. The Company has determined that the SPEs created in connection with its Master Trust Funding Program should be consolidated as the Company is the primary beneficiary of each of these entities. In December 2016, the Company issued its first series of notes under the Master Trust Funding Program, consisting of $263.5 million of Class A Notes and $17.3 million of Class B Notes (together, the “Series 2016-1 Notes”). These notes were issued to an affiliate of Eldridge through underwriting agents. The Series 2016-1 Notes were issued by two SPEs formed to hold assets and issue the secured borrowings associated with the securitization. In July 2017, the Company issued its second series of notes under the Master Trust Funding Program, consisting of $232.4 million of Class A Notes and $15.7 million of Class B Notes (together, the “Series 2017-1 Notes”). Of these notes, $75.1 million of the Class A Notes and all of the Class B Notes were issued to an affiliate of Eldridge through underwriting agents. The Series 2017-1 Notes were issued by three SPEs formed to hold assets and issue the secured borrowings associated with the securitization. Tenant rentals received on assets transferred to SPEs under the Master Trust Funding Program are sent to the trustee and used to pay monthly principal and interest payments. The Series 2016-1 Notes mature in November 2046, but the terms of the Class A Notes require principal to be paid monthly through November 2021, with a balloon repayment at that time, and the terms of the Class B Notes require no monthly principal payments but require the full principal balance to be paid in November 2021. If the Company does not meet these repayment schedules, the base interest rates on the notes increase by the greater of (i) 5.00% and (ii) the amount by which the sum of the following exceeds the base interest rates on the notes: (a) the yield to maturity of 10-year U.S. treasury securities in November 2021, plus (b) 5.00%, plus (c) 2.73% for the Series A Notes or 3.70% for the Class B Notes. Additionally, in this event, the full amount of any tenant rental payments received on the assets transferred to the securitization would be used to repay principal. The Series 2016-1 Notes may be voluntarily prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time on or after the date that is 24 months prior to the anticipated repayment date in November 2021 without the payment of a make whole amount. Voluntary prepayments may be made before 24 months prior to the anticipated repayment date but will be subject to the payment of a make whole amount. Interest on the Series 2016-1 Notes accrues at a weighted average interest rate of 4.51%. The Series 2017-1 Notes mature in June 2047, but the terms of the Class A Notes require principal to be paid monthly through June 2024, with a balloon repayment at that time, and the terms of the Class B Notes require no monthly principal payments but require the full principal balance to be paid in June 2024. The Series 2017-1 Notes contain similar interest rate escalation provisions as detailed above for Series 2016-1 Notes if these repayment schedules are not met. The Series 2017-1 Notes may be voluntarily prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time on or after the date that is 31 months prior to the anticipated repayment date in June 2024 without the payment of a make whole amount. Voluntary prepayments may be made before 31 months prior to the anticipated repayment date but will be subject to the payment of a make whole amount. Interest for the Series 2017-1 Notes accrues at a weighted average interest rate of 4.16%. In May 2019, the Company repurchased a portion of its Class A Series 2016-1 Notes with a face value of $200 million for $201.4 million from an affiliate of Eldridge. The repurchase was accounted for as a debt extinguishment and accordingly, the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of $4.3 million, including the write-off of unamortized deferred financing charges.

Equity Based Compensation	10. Equity Based Compensation 2018 Incentive Award Plan Effective immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, the Company adopted the Equity Incentive Plan, which provides for the grant of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, other stock awards, performance awards and LTIP units. Officers, employees, non-employee directors, consultants, independent contractors and agents who provide services to the Company or to any subsidiary of the Company are eligible to receive such awards. A maximum of 3,550,000 shares may be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan, subject to certain conditions. On June 22, 2018, the Company registered 3,550,000 shares of common stock, reserved for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-225837), filed with the SEC under the Securities Act. Restricted Stock Awards On June 25, 2018, an aggregate of 691,290 shares of unvested restricted common stock were issued to the Company’s directors, executive officers and other employees under the Equity Incentive Plan. Of these awards, 15,484 shares of restricted common stock vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant and 675,806 shares of restricted stock vest ratably on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant, subject to the individual recipient’s continued provision of service to the Company through the applicable vesting dates. In January 2019, an aggregate of 46,368 shares of unvested restricted common stock were issued to the Company’s executive officers, other employees and an external consultant under the Equity Incentive Plan. These awards vest over periods ranging from one to four years from the date of grant, subject to the individual recipient’s continued provision of service to the Company through the applicable vesting dates. The Company estimates the grant date fair value of the unvested restricted common stock awards granted under the Equity Incentive Plan using the average market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The following table presents information about the Company’s restricted stock awards for the periods presented: Three months ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (in thousands) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Compensation cost recognized in general and administrative expense $ 873 $ 45 $ 1,745 $ 45 Dividends declared and charged directly to distributions in excess of cumulative earnings 109 — 264 — Fair value of shares vested during the period 3,293 — 3,293 — The following table presents information about the Company’s restricted stock awards as of the dates presented: (Dollars in thousands) June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Total unrecognized compensation cost $ 6,675 $ 7,764 Weighted average period over which compensation cost will be recognized (in years) 2.1 2.5 Restricted Share Units In January 2019 of the Company’s board of directors Company’s executive officers under the Equity Incentive Plan Of these awards, 75% are awards of nonvested share units for which vesting percentages and the ultimate number of units vesting will be calculated based on the total shareholder return (“TSR”) of the Company's common stock as compared to the TSR of 11 peer companies. The payout schedule can produce vesting percentages ranging from 0% to 250%. TSR will be calculated based upon the average closing price for the 20-trading day period ending December 31, 2021, divided by the average closing price for the 20-trading day period ended January 1, 2019. The target number of units is based on achieving a TSR equal to the 50th percentile of the peer group. The Company recorded expense on these TSR RSUs based on achieving the target. The grant date fair value of the TSR RSUs was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation model based on the following assumptions: Volatility 18 % Risk free rate 2.57 % The remaining 25% of these performance-based RSUs vest based on the Compensation Committee’s subjective evaluation of the individual recipient’s achievement of certain strategic objectives. As of June 30, 2019, t he Compensation Committee had not identified specific performance targets relating to the . As such, these awards do not have either a service inception or a grant date for GAAP accounting purposes and the Company recorded no compensation cost with respect to this portion of the RSUs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. In June 2019, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s board of directors approved a grant of 11,500 RSUs to the Company’s independent directors. These awards vest in full on the earlier of one year from the grant date or the first annual meeting of stockholders that occurs after the grant date, subject to the individual recipient’s continued provision of service to the Company through the applicable vesting date.

The Class B and Class D units vest in five equal installments that began on March 30, 2017 and will continue on each anniversary thereof through March 30, 2021. The holders of vested Class B units can put the Class B units beginning on March 30, 2024. On December 31, 2017, in the EPRT LLC Reorganization, the holders of Class B and Class D units contributed all of their interests in EPRT LLC to EPRT Holdings in exchange for interests in EPRT Holdings with the same rights as the interests they held in EPRT LLC. The EPRT LLC units were exchanged on a one-for-one basis for equivalent units in EPRT Holdings with the same vesting conditions, distribution rights, priority and income allocation rights, among others. Additionally, EPRT Holdings issued a new grant of 500 unvested Class B units to a member of EPRT Management on the same date. The Class B units granted on December 31, 2017 vest in five equal installments that began on May 1, 2018 and will continue on each anniversary thereof through May 1, 2022 and have similar put rights as the Class B units granted on January 31, 2017. Following the completion of the Formation Transactions, the Class B and Class D unitholders continue to hold vested and unvested interests in EPRT Holdings and, indirectly, the OP Units held by EPRT Holdings. The following table presents information about the Class B and Class D unit activity during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018: Class B Units Class D Units Total Unvested, January 1, 2018 6,940 2,400 9,340 Granted — — — Vested (1,710 ) (600 ) (2,310 ) Forfeited — — — Unvested, June 30, 2018 5,230 1,800 7,030 Unvested, January 1, 2019 5,230 1,800 7,030 Granted — — — Vested (1,710 ) (600 ) (2,310 ) Forfeited — — — Unvested, June 30, 2019 3,520 1,200 4,720 The Company estimated the grant date fair value of the unvested Class B and Class D awards granted to employees on January 31, 2017 and December 31, 2017 and the fair value of the Class D awards granted to non-employees as of June 30, 2018 using a Black-Scholes valuation model. Effective July 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2018-07 (see Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) and will not subsequently remeasure the value of the unvested Class D awards granted to non-employees after this date. The Company's assumptions for expected volatility were based on daily historical volatility data related to market trading of publicly traded companies that invest in similar types of real estate as the Company, plus an adjustment to account for differences in the Company’s leverage compared to the publicly traded companies. The risk-free interest rate assumptions were determined by using U.S. treasury rates of the same period as the expected vesting term of each award. The marketability discounts were calculated using a Finnerty Model. The Company determined that the grant date per unit fair value of the unvested Class B and Class D units granted on January 31, 2017 was $323.65 and $152.16, respectively, and the grant date per unit fair value of the unvested Class B units granted on December 31, 2017 was $1,280.35. As of July 1, 2018, the Company determined that the per unit fair value of the Class D units granted to non-employees on January 31, 2017 was $79.09.

(2) Excludes the amortization and accretion of above- and below-market lease intangible assets and liabilities and lease incentives and the adjustment to rental revenue for tenant credit. As Lessee The Company has a number of ground leases, an office lease and other equipment leases which are classified as operating leases. On January 1, 2019, the Company recorded $4.8 million of ROU assets and lease liabilities related to these operating leases. The Company’s ROU assets were reduced by $0.1 million of accrued rent expense reclassified from accrued liabilities and other payables and $1.2 million of acquired above-market lease liabilities, net, reclassified from intangible lease liabilities, net and increased by $0.1 million of acquired below-market lease assets, net, reclassified from intangible lease assets, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization and $0.2 million of prepaid lease payments. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s ROU assets and lease liabilities were $3.5 million and $4.4 million, respectively. The discount rate applied to measure each ROU asset and lease liability is based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate ("IBR"). The Company considers the general economic environment and its historical borrowing activity and factors in various financing and asset specific adjustments to ensure the IBR is appropriate to the intended use of the underlying lease. As the Company did not elect to apply hindsight, lease term assumptions determined under ASC 840 were carried forward and applied in calculating the lease liabilities recorded under ASC 842. Certain of the Company’s ground leases offer renewal options which it assesses against relevant economic factors to determine whether it is reasonably certain of exercising or not exercising the option. Lease payments associated with renewal periods that the Company is reasonably certain will be exercised, if any, are included in the measurement of the corresponding lease liability and ROU asset. The following table sets forth information related to the measurement of the Company’s lease liabilities as of June 30, 2019 : June 30, 2019 Weighted average remaining lease term (in years) 5.3 Weighted average discount rate 7.00% The Company recognizes rent expense on its ground leases as a component of property expenses and rent expense on its office lease and other equipment leases as a component of general and administrative expense on its consolidated statements of operations. At five of these ground leased properties, Company’s lease as lessor of the building directly the building lessee to pay rents due under the ground lease to the ground lessor; under ASC 840, such ground lease rents are presented on a net basis in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. Upon adoption of ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 (see Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies), these ground lease rents are no longer presented on a net basis and instead are reflected on a gross basis in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	13. Fair Value Measurements GAAP establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair value. GAAP establishes market-based or observable inputs as the preferred source of values, followed by valuation models using management assumptions in the absence of market inputs. The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures regularly and, depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from period to period. However, the Company expects that changes in classifications between levels will be rare. In addition to the disclosures for assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, companies are required to disclose the estimated fair values of all financial instruments, even if they are not presented at their fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. The fair values of financial instruments are estimates based upon market conditions and perceived risks at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. These estimates require management’s judgment and may not be indicative of the future fair values of the assets and liabilities. Financial assets and liabilities for which the carrying values approximate their fair values include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable included within prepaid expenses and other assets, dividends payable and accrued liabilities and other payables (excluding the Company’s lease liability recorded under ASC 842 and derivative financial instruments). Generally, these assets and liabilities are short term in duration and their carrying value approximates fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. The estimated fair values of the Company’s fixed‑rate loans receivable have been derived based on primarily unobservable market inputs such as interest rates and discounted cash flow analyses using estimates of the amount and timing of future cash flows, market rates and credit spreads. These measurements are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The Company believes the carrying value of its fixed-rate loans receivable approximates fair value. The estimated fair values of the Company’s borrowings under the 2018 Credit Facility and the Amended Credit Facility have been derived based on primarily unobservable market inputs such as interest rates and discounted cash flow analyses using estimates of the amount and timing of future cash flows, market rates and credit spreads. These measurements are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The Company believes the carrying value of its borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility as of June 30, 2019 and the 2018 Credit Facility as of December 31, 2018 approximate fair value. The estimated fair values of the Company’s secured borrowings under the Master Trust Funding Program have been derived based on primarily unobservable market inputs such as interest rates and discounted cash flow analyses using estimates of the amount and timing of future cash flows, market rates and credit spreads. These measurements are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s secured borrowings, net had an aggregate carrying value of $311.7 million (excluding net deferred financing costs of $5.2 million) and an estimated fair value of $320.3 million. As of December 31, 2018, the Company’s secured borrowings had an aggregate carrying value of $515.1 million (excluding net deferred financing costs of $9.0 million) and an estimated fair value of $520.6 million. The Company measures its derivative financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair values of the Company’s derivative financial instruments were determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivative financial instrument. This analysis reflected the contractual terms of the derivative, including the period to maturity, and used observable market-based inputs, including interest rate market data and implied volatilities in such interest rates. While it was determined that the majority of the inputs used to value the derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy under authoritative accounting guidance, the credit valuation adjustments associated with the derivatives also utilized Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default. However, as of June 30, 2019, the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of the derivative financial instruments was assessed and it was determined that these adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of the derivative financial instruments. As a result, it was determined that the derivative financial instruments in their entirety should be classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2019, the Company estimated the fair value of its interest rate swap contracts The Company measures its real estate investments at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The fair values of these real estate investments were determined using the following input levels as of the dates presented: Net Carrying Fair Value Measurements Using Fair Value Hierarchy (in thousands) Value Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 June 30, 2019 Non-financial assets: Long-lived assets $ 5,766 $ 5,766 $ — $ — $ 5,766 December 31, 2018 Non-financial assets: Long-lived assets $ 3,238 $ 3,238 $ — $ — $ 3,238 Long-lived assets: The Company reviews its investments in real estate when events or circumstances change indicating that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In the evaluation of an investment in real estate for impairment, many factors are considered, including estimated current and expected operating cash flows from the asset during the projected holding period, costs necessary to extend the life or improve the asset, expected capitalization rates, projected stabilized net operating income, selling costs, and the ability to hold and dispose of the asset in the ordinary course of business.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
Related-Party Transactions	14. Related-Party Transactions During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, an affiliate of Eldridge provided certain treasury and information technology services to the Company. The Company incurred a de minimis amount of expense for these services during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, which is included in general and administrative expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The costs for the services provided by the affiliate of Eldridge would likely be different if such services were provided by unrelated parties. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company issued and repaid short-term notes to an affiliate of Eldridge. See Note 7—Notes Payable to Related Parties for additional information. In May 2019, the Company repurchased a portion of its Class A Series 2016-1 Notes with a face value of $200 million for $201.4 million from an affiliate of Eldridge.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	15. Subsequent Events The Company has evaluated all events and transactions that occurred after June 30, 2019 through the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and determined that there have been no events that have occurred that would require adjustment to disclosures in the consolidated financial statements except as disclosed below and as disclosed elsewhere in these notes to the consolidated financial statements. On July 22, 2019, EPRT Holdings and Security Benefit Life Insurance Company (together, the “Selling Stockholders”), affiliates of Eldridge, completed an underwritten public offering (the “Secondary Offering”) of 26,288,316 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company, including 3,428,910 shares related to an option to purchase additional shares. Prior to completion of the Secondary Offering, the Selling Stockholders exchanged 18,502,705 OP Units of the Operating Partnership for a like number of shares of the Company’s common stock. To the Company’s knowledge, following the completion of the Secondary Offering, the Selling Stockholders no longer own any of the Company’s common stock or OP Units of the Operating Partnership. Upon the completion of the Secondary Offering, the Selling Stockholders sold all of the shares of common stock that they owned and accordingly no longer own shares of common stock representing at least 5% of the outstanding voting power of all outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors. As a result, the Stockholders Agreement, dated as of June 25, 2018 by and among the Company and the parties named therein, automatically terminated in accordance with its terms. As a result, the rights of Eldridge and its affiliates under the Company’s charter and bylaws to nominate directors of the Company and approve certain actions are terminated. In addition, upon completion of the Secondary Offering, the requirement that limited partners of the Operating Partnership approve certain fundamental transactions involving the Company and the waiver of certain limits on ownership of the Company’s stock, permitting Eldridge and its affiliates to own up to 19.0% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, terminated. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the Secondary Offering.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Accounting	Basis of Accounting The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and with the rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as filed with the SEC in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.
Reclassification	Reclassification Certain amounts previously reported in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation of gain on dispositions of real estate, net on the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company has presented gain on dispositions of real estate, net as a component of income from operations in order to present gains and losses on dispositions of properties in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 360-10-45-5. This change in presentation was made for the prior period as the SEC has eliminated Rule 3-15(a) of Regulation S-X, which previously had required the Company to present gains and losses on sale of properties outside of continuing operations in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, the Company changed the presentation of its consolidated statements of stockholders’/members’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as the SEC extended the annual disclosure requirements for changes in stockholders’ equity in Rule 3-04 of Regulation S-X to interim periods, now requiring both the year-to-date information and subtotals for each interim period. Additionally, certain amounts previously reported in the consolidated statements of operations have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation of rental revenue (due to the adoption of the new lease accounting standard, as discussed further below), interest income and income tax expense.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and subsidiaries in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company held a 75.2% and 69.7% ownership interest in the Operating Partnership and the consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Operating Partnership as of these dates. See Note 15—Subsequent Events for changes in the ownership interest in the Operating Partnership subsequent to June 30, 2019.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Real Estate Investments	Real Estate Investments Investments in real estate are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. The cost of investments in real estate reflects their purchase price or development cost. The Company evaluates each acquisition transaction to determine whether the acquired asset meets the definition of a business. Under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties accounted for as asset acquisitions to tangible and identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on their relative fair values. Tangible assets may include land, site improvements and buildings. Intangible assets may include the value of in-place leases and above- and below-market leases and other identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on lease or property specific characteristics. The Company incurs various costs in the leasing and development of its properties. Amounts paid to tenants that incentivize them to extend or otherwise amend an existing lease or to sign a new lease agreement are capitalized to lease incentive on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Tenant improvements are capitalized to building and improvements within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Costs incurred which are directly related to properties under development, which include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development costs, construction costs, interest costs and real estate taxes and insurance, are capitalized during the period of development as construction in progress. After the determination is made to capitalize a cost, it is allocated to the specific component of a project that benefited. Determination of when a development project commences and capitalization begins, and when a development project has reached substantial completion and is available for occupancy and capitalization must cease, involves a degree of judgment. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property with an in-place operating lease is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to the tangible assets based on the fair value of the tangible assets. The fair value of in-place leases is determined by considering estimates of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods, current market conditions, as well as costs to execute similar leases based on the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease. The Company estimates the cost to execute leases with terms similar to the remaining lease terms of the in-place leases, including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses. Factors the Company considers in this analysis include an estimate of the carrying costs during the 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, which primarily range from six to 12 months. The fair value of above- or below-market leases is recorded based on the net present value (using a discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amount to be paid pursuant to the in-place lease and the Company’s estimate of the fair market lease rate for the corresponding in-place lease, measured over the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease including any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases. In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company utilizes a number of sources, including real estate valuations prepared by independent valuation firms. The Company also considers information and other factors including market conditions, the industry that the tenant operates in, characteristics of the real estate, e.g., location, size, demographics, value and comparative rental rates, tenant credit profile and the importance of the location of the real estate to the operations of the tenant’s business. Additionally, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired. The Company uses the information obtained as a result of its pre-acquisition due diligence as part of its consideration of the accounting standard governing asset retirement obligations and, when necessary, will record an asset retirement obligation as part of the purchase price allocation. Real estate investments that are intended to be sold are designated as “held for sale” on the consolidated balance sheets at the lesser of carrying amount or fair value less estimated selling costs when they meet specific criteria to be presented as held for sale. Real estate investments are no longer depreciated when they are classified as held for sale. If the disposal, or intended disposal, of certain real estate investments represents a strategic shift that has had or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, the operations of such real estate investments would be presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for all applicable periods.
Depreciation and Amortization	Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings and 15 years for site improvements. During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded $8.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively, of depreciation on its real estate investments. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded $16.3 million and $10.9 million, respectively, of depreciation on its real estate investments. Lease incentives are amortized on a straight-line basis as a reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancellable terms of the respective leases. If a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of the lease incentive is charged to rental revenue. Construction in progress is not depreciated until the development has reached substantial completion. Tenant improvements are depreciated over the non-cancellable term of the related lease or their estimated useful life, whichever is shorter. Capitalized above-market lease values are amortized on a straight-line basis as a reduction of rental revenue over the remaining non-cancellable terms of the respective leases. Capitalized below-market lease values are accreted on a straight-line basis as an increase to rental revenue over the remaining non-cancellable terms of the respective leases including any below-market fixed rate renewal option periods. Capitalized above-market ground lease values are accreted as a reduction of property expenses over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Capitalized below-market ground lease values are amortized as an increase to property expenses over the remaining terms of the respective leases and any expected below-market renewal option periods where renewal is considered probable. The value of in-place leases, exclusive of the value of above-market and below-market lease intangibles, is amortized to depreciation and amortization expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining periods of the respective leases. If a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of each intangible, including in-place lease values, is charged to depreciation and amortization expense, while above- and below-market lease adjustments are recorded within rental revenue in the consolidated statements of operations.
Loans Receivable	Loans Receivable The Company holds its loans receivable for long-term investment. Loans receivable are carried at amortized cost, including related unamortized discounts or premiums, if any. The Company recognizes interest income on loans receivable using the effective-interest method applied on a loan-by-loan basis. Direct costs associated with originating loans are offset against any related fees received and the balance, along with any premium or discount, is deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest income over the term of the related loan receivable using the effective-interest method. The Company periodically evaluates the collectability of its loans receivable, including accrued interest, by analyzing the underlying property‑level economics and trends, collateral value and quality and other relevant factors in determining the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses. A loan is determined to be impaired when, in management’s judgment based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Specific allowances for loan losses are provided for impaired loans on an individual loan basis in the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral less disposition costs. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had no allowance for loan losses recorded in its consolidated financial statements.
Direct Financing Lease Receivables	Direct Financing Lease Receivables Certain of the Company’s real estate investment transactions are accounted for as direct financing leases. The Company records the direct financing lease receivables at their net investment, determined as the aggregate minimum lease payments and the estimated non-guaranteed residual value of the leased property less unearned income. The unearned income is recognized over the life of the related lease contracts so as to produce a constant rate of return on the net investment in the asset. The Company’s investment in direct financing lease receivables is reduced over the applicable lease term to its non-guaranteed residual value by the portion of rent allocated to the direct financing lease receivables. Subsequent to the adoption of ASC 842, Leases If and when an investment in direct financing lease receivables is identified for impairment evaluation, the Company will apply the guidance in both ASC 310, Receivables Leases
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets If circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the asset for impairment. This review is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition. These estimates consider factors such as expected future operating income, market and other applicable trends and residual value, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If impairment exists due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a property, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property for properties to be held and used. For properties held for sale, the impairment loss is the adjustment to fair value less estimated cost to dispose of the asset. Impairment assessments have a direct impact on the consolidated statements of operations because recording an impairment loss results in an immediate negative adjustment to the consolidated statements of operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded a provision for impairment of real estate of $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded a provision for impairment of real estate of $1.9 million and $2.8 million, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in the Company’s bank accounts. The Company considers all cash balances and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company deposits cash with high quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to an insurance limit. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had deposits of $7.8 million and $4.2 million, respectively, of which $7.6 million and $4.0 million, respectively, were in excess of the amount insured by the FDIC. Although the Company bears risk to amounts in excess of those insured by the FDIC, it does not anticipate any losses as a result.
Restricted Cash	Restricted Cash Restricted cash consists of cash held with the trustee for the Company’s Master Trust Funding Program (as defined in Note 6—Secured Borrowings). This restricted cash is used to make principal and interest payments on the Company’s secured borrowings, to pay trust expenses and to acquire future real estate investments which will be pledged as collateral under the Master Trust Funding Program. See Note 6—Secured Borrowings for further discussion.
Adjustment to Rental Revenue for Tenant Credit/Allowance for Doubtful Accounts	Adjustment to Rental Revenue for Tenant Credit/Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent and unbilled rent receivables and determines collectability by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. Prior to January 1, 2019, if the collectability of a receivable was in doubt, the accounts receivable and straight-line rent receivable balances were reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts on the consolidated balance sheets or a direct write-off of the receivable was recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The provision for doubtful accounts was included in property expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. If the accounts receivable balance or straight-line rent receivable balance was subsequently deemed to be uncollectible, such receivable amounts were written-off to the allowance for doubtful accounts. As of January 1, 2019, if the assessment of the collectability of substantially all payments due under a lease changes from probable to not probable, any difference between the rental revenue recognized to date and the lease payments that have been collected is recognized as a current period adjustment to rental revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0.2 million related to base rent receivable and recorded no allowance for doubtful accounts related to straight-line rent receivable. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized a current period adjustment to rental revenue of less than $0.1 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the
Deferred Financing Costs	Deferred Financing Costs Financing costs related to establishing the Company’s 2018 Credit Facility and Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) were deferred and are being amortized as an increase to interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the term of the facility and are reported as a component of prepaid expenses and other assets, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Financing costs related to the issuance of the Company’s secured borrowings under the Master Trust Funding Program and Term Loan Facility (as defined below) were deferred and are being amortized as an increase to interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the term of the related debt instrument and are reported as a reduction of the related debt balance on the consolidated balance sheets.
Derivative Instruments	Derivative Instruments In the normal course of business, the Company uses derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, caps, options, floors and other interest rate derivative contracts, The Company records all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting. The accounting for subsequent changes in the fair value of these derivatives depends on whether each has been designed and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment. If the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting treatment (or for derivatives that do not qualify as hedges), any change in the fair value of these derivative instruments is recognized immediately in gains (losses) on derivative instruments in the consolidated statements of operations. If a derivative is designated and qualifies for cash flow hedge accounting treatment, the change in the estimated fair value of the derivative is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income to the extent that it is effective. Any ineffective portion of a change in derivative fair value is immediately recorded in earnings. Derivative Instruments In the normal course of business, the Company uses derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, caps, options, floors and other interest rate derivative contracts, The Company records all derivatives on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting. The accounting for subsequent changes in the fair value of these derivatives depends on whether each has been designed and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment. If the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting treatment (or for derivatives that do not qualify as hedges), any change in the fair value of these derivative instruments is recognized immediately in gains (losses) on derivative instruments in the consolidated statements of operations. If a derivative is designated and qualifies for cash flow hedge accounting treatment, the change in the estimated fair value of the derivative is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income to the extent that it is effective. Any ineffective portion of a change in derivative fair value is immediately recorded in earnings.
Fair Value Measurement	Fair Value Measurement The Company estimates fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities based on the framework established in fair value accounting guidance. 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 at the measurement date (an exit price). The hierarchy described below prioritizes inputs to the valuation techniques used in measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities. This hierarchy maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring the most observable inputs to be used when available. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows: Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability. Level 3—Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition The Company’s rental revenue is primarily rent received from tenants. Rent from tenants is recorded in accordance with the terms of each lease on a straight-line basis over the non-cancellable initial term of the lease from the later of the date of the commencement of the lease or the date of acquisition of the property subject to the lease. Rental revenue recognition begins when the tenant controls the space and continues through the term of the related lease. Because substantially all of the leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, the Company records a straight-line rent receivable and recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis through the expiration of the non-cancelable term of the lease. The Company takes into account whether the collectability of rents is reasonably assured in determining the amount of straight-line rent to record. Generally, the Company’s leases provide the tenant with one or more multi-year renewal options, subject to generally the same terms and conditions provided under the initial lease term, including rent increases. If economic incentives make it reasonably certain that an option period to extend the lease will be exercised, the Company will include these options in determining the non-cancelable term of the lease. The Company defers rental revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. These amounts are presented within accrued liabilities and other payables on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Certain properties in the Company’s investment portfolio are subject to leases that provide for contingent rent based on a percentage of the tenant’s gross sales. For these leases, the Company recognizes contingent rental revenue when the threshold upon which the contingent lease payment is based is actually reached. During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded contingent rent of $0.2 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded contingent rent of $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively.
Organizational Costs	Organizational Costs Costs related to the initial organization of the Company and its subsidiaries are expensed as they are incurred and are recorded within general and administrative expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
Offering Costs	Offering Costs In connection with the IPO and the Follow-On Offering, the Company incurred legal, accounting and other offering-related costs. Such costs have been deducted from the gross proceeds of each of the IPO and Follow-On Offering. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had capitalized a total of $46.0 million and $35.1 million, respectively, of such costs in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These costs are presented as a reduction of additional paid-in capital as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Gains and Losses on Dispositions of Real Estate	Gains and Losses on Dispositions of Real Estate On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2017-05, Other Income — Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets
Income Taxes	Income Taxes EPRT Inc. intends to elect to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2018. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that 90% of ordinary “REIT taxable income” (as determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gains) be distributed. As a REIT, the Company will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income tax to the extent that it meets the organizational and operational requirements and its distributions equal or exceed REIT taxable income. For the period subsequent to the effective date of our intended REIT election, the Company intends to meet the organizational and operational requirements and expects distributions to exceed net taxable income. Accordingly, no provision has been made for U.S. federal income taxes. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to state and local income and franchise taxes, and to federal income and excise tax on its undistributed income. Franchise taxes and federal excise taxes on the Company’s undistributed income, if any, are included in general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through the Company's taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to federal, state, and local taxes. T he Company analyzes its tax filing positions in all of the U.S. federal, state and local tax jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as for all open tax years in such jurisdictions. The Company follows a two-step process to evaluate uncertain tax positions. Step one, recognition, occurs when an entity concludes that a tax position, based solely on its technical merits, is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination. Step two, measurement, determines the amount of benefit that is more-likely-than-not to be realized upon settlement. Derecognition of a tax position that was previously recognized would occur when the Company subsequently determines that a tax position no longer meets the more-likely-than-not threshold of being sustained. The use of a valuation allowance as a substitute for derecognition of tax positions is prohibited. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company did not record any accruals for uncertain tax positions. The Company’s policy is to classify interest expense and penalties in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not record any interest or penalties, and there are no interest or penalties accrued at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The 2018, 2017 and 2016 taxable years remain open to examination by federal and state taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.
Equity Based Compensation	Equity-Based Compensation In 2019 and 2018, EPRT Inc. granted shares of restricted common stock and restricted share units (“RSUs”) to its directors, executive officers and other employees that vest over multiple periods, subject to the recipient’s continued service. In 2019, EPRT Inc. granted performance-based RSUs to its executive officers, the final number of which is determined based off of market and subjective performance conditions and which vest over a multi-year period, subject to the recipient’s continued service. In 2017, the Predecessor granted unit-based compensation awards to certain of its employees and managers, as well as non-employees, consisting of units that vest over a multi-year period, subject to the recipient’s continued service. The Company accounts for the restricted common stock, RSUs and unit-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires that such compensation be recognized in the financial statements based on their estimated grant-date fair value. The value of such awards is recognized as compensation expense in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations over the requisite service periods. The Company recognizes compensation expense for equity-based compensation using the straight-line method based on the terms of the individual grant.
Variable Interest Entities	Variable Interest Entities The FASB provides guidance for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity (a “VIE”). VIEs are defined as entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. A VIE is required to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is the party that (i) has the power to control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Following the completion of the Formation Transactions, the Company concluded that the Operating Partnership is a VIE of which the Company is the primary beneficiary, as the Company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the Operating Partnership . Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities are held by the Operating Partnership. The assets and liabilities of the Operating Partnership are consolidated and reported as assets and liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. As of he Company concluded that an entity which it had provided a $5.7 million mortgage loan receivable was a VIE because the terms of the loan agreement limited the entity’s ability to absorb expected losses or the entity’s right to receive expected residual returns. However, the Company was not the primary beneficiary of the entity, because the Company did not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. As of the carrying amount of the Company’s loan receivable with this entity was $5.7 million, and the Company’s maximum exposure to loss in this entity is limited to the carrying amount of its investment. The Company had no liabilities associated with this investment as of . In March 2019 he Company had no loan receivable from this entity as of June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2019 he Company concluded that three entities to which it had provided mortgage loans were VIEs because the entities’ equity is not sufficient to finance the activities without additional subordinated financial support. However, the Company was not the primary beneficiary of the entities, because the Company did not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entities’ economic performance. As of June 30, 2019 the carrying amount of the Company’s loans receivable with these entities was $23.4 million, and the Company’s maximum exposure to loss in these entities is limited to the carrying amount of its investment. The Company had no liabilities associated with these VIEs as of June 30, 2019.
Reportable Segments	Reportable Segments ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for the manner in which enterprises report information about operating segments. Substantially all of the Company’s investments, at acquisition, are comprised of real estate owned that is leased to tenants on a long-term basis. Therefore, the Company aggregates these investments for reporting purposes and operates in one reportable segment.
Net Income Per Common Share	Net Income per Share Net income per share has been computed pursuant to the guidance in the FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share Diluted net income per share of common stock further considers the effect of potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period, including the assumed vesting of restricted share units with a market-based or service-based vesting condition, where dilutive. The OP Units held by non-controlling interests represent potentially dilutive securities as the OP Units may be redeemed for cash or, at the Company’s election, exchanged for shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis. The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the computation of basic and diluted net income per share (dollars in thousands): Three months ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (dollar amounts in thousands) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Numerator for basic and diluted earnings per share: Net income $ 10,571 $ 321 $ 19,294 $ 321 Less: net income attributable to non-controlling interests (2,620 ) (99 ) (5,214 ) (99 ) Less: net income allocated to unvested restricted common stock and RSUs (112 ) — (267 ) — Net income available for common stockholders: basic 7,839 222 13,813 222 Net income attributable to non-controlling interests 2,620 99 5,214 99 Net income available for common stockholders: diluted $ 10,459 $ 321 $ 19,027 $ 321 Denominator for basic and diluted earnings per share: Weighted average common shares outstanding 57,825,460 40,976,901 51,932,547 40,976,901 Less: weighted average number of shares of unvested restricted common stock (721,784 ) (691,290 ) (727,814 ) (691,290 ) Weighted average shares outstanding used in basic net income per share 57,103,676 40,285,611 51,204,733 40,285,611 Effects of dilutive securities: (1) OP Units 19,056,552 19,056,552 19,056,552 19,056,552 Unvested restricted common stock and RSUs 505,677 — 425,684 — Weighted average shares outstanding used in diluted net income per share 76,665,905 59,342,163 70,686,969 59,342,163 (1) Assumes the most dilutive issuance of potentially issuable shares between the two-class and treasury stock method unless the result would be anti-dilutive.
Recent Accounting Developments	Recent Accounting Developments In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”) to amend the accounting for leases. The new standard requires lessees to classify leases as either finance or operating leases based on certain criteria and record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months, regardless of their classification. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to the previous guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. The standard also eliminates current real estate-specific provisions and changes the guidance on sale-leaseback transactions, initial direct costs, lease modifications and lease executory costs for all entities. Certain changes to the guidance pertaining to sale-leaseback transactions may impact the Company. For example, the inclusion of a purchase option in the lease associated with a sale-leaseback transaction will now result in the lessor accounting for such transaction as a financing arrangement. ASU 2016-02 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2019 and, in accordance with the provisions of ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842), Targeted Improvements, was adopted by the Company using the modified retrospective approach as of the beginning of the period of adoption. There was no impact to retained earnings at the time of adoption and, therefore, no cumulative-effect adjustment was recorded. At the time of adoption, both lessees and lessors are permitted to make an election to apply a package of practical expedients available for implementation under the standard. The Company applied this package of practical expedients and, as such, at the time of adoption did not reassess the classification of existing lease contracts, whether existing or expired contracts contain a lease or whether a portion of initial direct costs for existing leases should have been expensed. In addition, the Company adopted the practical expedient provided in ASU 2018-11 that allows lessors to not separate non-lease components from the related lease components. The Company made this determination as the timing and pattern of transfer for the lease and non-lease components associated with its leases are the same and the lease components, if accounted for separately, would be classified as operating leases in accordance with ASC 842. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged under ASU 2016-02; however, the standard requires that lessors expense, on an as-incurred basis, certain initial direct costs that are not incremental in obtaining a lease. Under the previous standards, certain of these costs were capitalizable. Although primarily a lessor, the Company is also a lessee under several ground lease arrangements and under its corporate office and office equipment leases. The Company completed its inventory and evaluation of these leases, calculated a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for the present value of the minimum lease payments and recognized an initial $4.8 million right-of-use asset and lease liability upon adoption. For a portion of the Company’s ground lease arrangements, the sublessees, or the Company’s tenants, are responsible for making payment directly to the ground lessors. Prior to the new standard such amounts were presented on a net basis; however, upon adoption of ASU 2016-02 the expense related to the ground lease obligations, along with the related sublease revenues, is presented on a gross basis in the consolidated statements of operations. ASU 2016-02 also requires additional disclosures within the notes accompanying the consolidated financial statements. Substantially all of the Company’s lease contracts (under which the Company is the lessor) are “triple-net” leases, which means that its tenants are responsible for making payments to third parties for operating expenses such as property taxes and insurance costs associated with the properties the Company leases to them. Under the previous lease accounting guidance, these payments were excluded from rental revenue. In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20 Leases (Topic 842), Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors. This update requires the Company to exclude from variable lease payments, and therefore revenue and expense, costs paid by its tenants directly to third parties (a net presentation). Costs paid by the Company and reimbursed by its tenants are included in rental revenue and property expenses (a gross presentation) in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (ASU 2017-12) In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement: Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”) In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

Schedule of Loans Receivable	The Company’s loans receivable as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are summarized as follows (dollar amounts in thousands): Principal Balance Outstanding Loan Type Monthly Payment Number of Secured Properties Interest Rate Maturity Date June 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Mortgage (1)(2) Interest only 1 10.00% 2021 $ 1,263 $ 2,376 Mortgage (1) Interest only 7.55% 2019 — 5,748 Mortgage (1)(2) Interest only 5.25% 2019 — 3,500 Mortgage (1)(2) Interest only 3 8.80% 2039 16,800 — Mortgage (2) Principal + Interest 2 8.10% 2059 5,125 — Development construction (2)(3) Principal + Interest 1 8.00% 2058 3,429 3,230 Leasehold interest (4) Principal + Interest (4) 10.69% 2039 1,435 — Net investment $ 28,052 $ 14,854 (1 ) Loan requires monthly payments of interest only with a balloon payment due at maturity. (2) Loan allows for prepayments in whole or in part without penalty. (3) Loan is secured by a mortgage on the building and improvements at the development property. The Company provides periodic funding to the borrower under this arrangement as construction progresses. Monthly payments are made based on a 40-year amortization schedule with any outstanding principal balance due at maturity or earlier upon the occurrence of certain other events. The mortgaged property is subject to a ground lease arrangement with the Company, as landlord, and borrower, as tenant. If the tenant does not exercise its right to renew the ground lease at the end of its initial lease term, which ranges from 15 to 20 years, the balance of the mortgage loan receivable will be forgiven, and the Company will retain title to the mortgaged property. (4) This leasehold interest transaction is accounted for as a loan receivable as the lease of two land parcels contains an option for the lessee to repurchase the leased assets in 2024 or 2025.
