Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. Announces Increase in New Equity Cap to $20 Million for July 2018 Closing

ROCHESTER, N.Y., July 18, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. (“BNL,” ”we,” “our,” or ”us”), a privately offered real estate investment trust (“REIT”) managed by Broadstone Real Estate, LLC (“Broadstone”), today announced a $5 million increase in the new equity cap on new and additional investments in shares of its common stock to $20 million for the closing that is scheduled to occur on July 31, 2018.

Broadstone Net Lease, Inc.


Given the robust and attractive pipeline of potential acquisition targets and deals in progress, I am happy to announce a $5 million increase in BNL’s monthly equity cap for our July closing, moving from $15 million to $20 million,” said Chris Czarnecki, BNL’s Chief Executive Officer.

As previously disclosed, BNL initially implemented the monthly new equity cap and queue program during the fourth quarter of 2017. It was put into place to help balance the timing of equity capital inflows and deployment of those funds in the form of real estate investments, as well as to keep our leverage ratio within our targeted leverage range while remaining well within our investment grade profile. The use and amount of the cap is based upon, and may be adjusted for, a number of factors, including, among others, our current and targeted leverage profile, our acquisition pipeline and anticipated future capital deployment, and overall market conditions. The monthly cap only applies to new or additional investments, and not to investments made pursuant to our Distribution Reinvestment Plan or equity capital received in connection with UPREIT transactions.

The new equity cap for the months of August 2018, September 2018, and October 2018 will be announced in August with the release of BNL’s financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.
