Recent Highlights
On April 14, 2015, Spirit issued 23 million shares in a follow-on offering at $11.85 per common share, including the fully-exercised underwriter's option to purchase additional shares, generating $268.9 million in net proceeds.
Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, Spirit sold 8 additional Shopko assets, generating gross sales proceeds of $63.8 million. Had these closed on March 31, 2015, Shopko’s Normalized Revenue concentration would have been 12.1%.
As of May 5, 2015, Spirit had approximately $86 million in cash and cash equivalents on its balance sheet and nothing drawn under its unsecured credit facility.

CEO Comments
"We are pleased with our recent progress in executing on our stated business plan," stated Thomas H. Nolan, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "With a focus on creating a balanced institutional capital structure and a well-diversified portfolio, we notably improved our unencumbered asset base, reduced our debt-to-EBITDA ratio and continued to make significant strides in reducing our Shopko concentration. At the same time, we continue to enhance our real estate portfolio through accretive acquisitions and strategic dispositions. We believe we are well positioned as a premier net lease REIT with proven access to institutional capital, a seasoned management team, disciplined underwriting and a best-in-class asset management platform."
Financial Results
Revenues: Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2015, increased by $18.3 million, or 12.7% to $162.3 million, compared to $144.0 million in the first quarter of 2014. The increase in total revenues was primarily due to an increase in base rental revenue resulting from acquisitions representing $1.08 billion in net lease real estate investments for the trailing twelve months ending March 31, 2015 and, to a lesser extent, contractual rent escalations during that time. The increase was partially offset by asset sales representing a gross investment value of $199.5 million over the same period.
Leverage: During the quarter Spirit extinguished $162.8 million of debt that had a weighted average stated rate of 5.76%.  As a result, Leverage at March 31, 2015 was reduced to 7.5x from 7.6x at December 31, 2014. 
On April 14, 2015, Spirit issued 23 million shares of its common stock in a follow-on offering that generated net proceeds of $268.9 million. Had this offering closed on March 31, 2015, net proceeds would have reduced Leverage to 7.0x.
On March 12, 2015, S&P raised its corporate credit rating on Spirit to 'BB' from 'BB-', with a stable outlook.
Please refer to pages 6 and 7 of this release for Leverage definitions and components of its calculation.
Dividends: On March 16, 2015, Spirit's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.17 per common share, which equates to an annualized dividend rate of $0.68 per common share. The quarterly dividend was paid on April 15, 2015 to shareholders of record as of March 31, 2015.

Portfolio Highlights

Acquisitions: During the quarter, and primarily through sale lease-back transactions, Spirit acquired 53 properties, which are leased to 25 tenants in 12 different industries, for a gross investment of $265.5 million. These acquisitions represented 32 separate transactions with a blended initial cash yield of 7.68%, and a weighted average remaining term of 17.2 years. Approximately 21.4% of these transactions were with existing tenants. Spirit's first quarter 2015 acquisition activity reflected a diverse group of industries, which included grocery stores, restaurants, convenience stores, automotive services, as well as general and specialty retail.

Dispositions: During the quarter, Spirit sold 15 properties generating gross sales proceeds of $77.2 million, including five Shopko assets for approximately $38.8 million, with an overall gain on sale of $11.3 million. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, Spirit sold 8 additional Shopko assets for approximately $63.8 million. In the aggregate, Spirit has sold 13 Shopko assets for $102.5 million since the Company extended and modified its master lease agreement with Shopko in December 2014.
Portfolio Composition: As of March 31, 2015, Spirit's gross investment in real estate and loans totaled approximately $8.2 billion, representing investments in 2,547 properties, including 145 properties securing mortgage loans receivable and 2,402 owned properties, which were 98% occupied and leased to 474 tenants across 49 states. Spirit’s properties are generally leased under long-term, triple net leases, with a weighted average remaining term of approximately 10.9 years. At March 31, 2015, approximately 46% of Spirit's annual rental revenues were derived from master leases, and approximately 89% of Spirit's single-tenant leases provided for periodic rent increases.
Tenant Diversification: As of March 31, 2015, Shopko, Spirit's largest tenant, represented 12.8% of the Company's Normalized Revenues, which was reduced from 14.0% at the time Spirit extended and modified its master lease agreement with Shopko in December 2014. The lease amendment provides Spirit with greater flexibility to sell Shopko-leased properties. Had the post-quarter Shopko sales closed prior to the end of the first quarter, Shopko properties would have represented 12.1% of Normalized Revenues. As of March 31, 2015, no other tenant represented more than 3.6% of Spirit's Normalized Revenues.
Portfolio Diversification: Spirit’s real estate portfolio as of March 31, 2015 was geographically diversified across 49 states and among various industry types. Texas accounted for 11.6% of the Normalized Rental Revenue of the real estate portfolio, with no other state contributing more than 6.4%. As of March 31, 2015, Spirit's three largest industry types were general merchandise, representing 14.8%; casual dining restaurants, representing 10.6%; and quick service restaurants, representing 7.2%.

Capital Transactions

ATM Common Stock Program: During the three months ended March 31, 2015, Spirit sold 6.6 million shares under its ATM program, generating net proceeds of $78.6 million. Since its inception in April 2014, Spirit has sold 21 million shares under its ATM program, generating net proceeds of approximately $242.4 million. The Company uses the proceeds generated through its ATM program, from time to time, for acquisitions, capital expenditures and loan repayments, as well as general corporate purposes.

Credit Facility: During the quarter, Spirit obtained a $600 million unsecured credit facility at an initial borrowing rate of LIBOR + 170 basis points, and repaid the amounts outstanding under its previous $400 million secured credit facility, which was incurring interest at LIBOR +250 basis points at the repayment date. The new facility matures on March 31, 2019, with an option to extend the maturity to March 31, 2020, subject to certain requirements. The new facility includes an accordion feature, which can increase the size of the facility to up to $1.0 billion and further enhances its terms if Spirit achieves an investment grade rating of BBB- or higher from S&P or Baa3 from Moody's Investor Services, Inc. As of May 7, 2015, Spirit had $600 million available under its unsecured credit facility.

Equity Offering: Subsequent to the end of the quarter, on April 14, 2015, Spirit announced the closing of its public offering of 23 million shares of its common stock, which included the full exercise of the underwriter's option to purchase additional shares. The offering generated net proceeds of approximately $268.9 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and other estimated expenses payable by Spirit, which was used to repay the outstanding balance under Spirit’s revolving credit facility, to fund acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.

2015 Guidance

The Company affirms its previously announced 2015 AFFO guidance with an expected range of $0.84 to $0.86 per share. This AFFO guidance equates to anticipated net income (excluding non-recurring items that are not reflective of ongoing operations) of $0.22 to $0.24 per share plus $0.61 per share of expected real estate depreciation and amortization plus approximately $0.01 per share related to non-cash items and real estate transaction costs.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

FFO and AFFO

We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT. FFO represents net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding real estate-related depreciation and amortization, impairment charges and net losses (gains) from property dispositions. FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. We use FFO as a supplemental performance measure because we believe that FFO is beneficial to investors as a starting point in measuring our operational performance. Specifically, in excluding real estate-related depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions and impairment charges, which do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of the performance of equity REITs, FFO will be used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other equity REITs. However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and does not capture the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. In addition, other equity REITs may not calculate FFO as we do, and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to such other equity REITs’ FFO. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders as a measure of our performance.

AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure of operating performance used by many companies in the REIT industry. It adjusts FFO to eliminate the impact of non-recurring items that are not reflective of ongoing operations and certain non-cash items that reduce or increase net income (loss) in accordance with GAAP. Our computation of AFFO may differ from the methodology for calculating AFFO used by other equity REITs, and, therefore, may not be comparable to such other REITs. A reconciliation of net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) to AFFO is included in the financial information accompanying this release.

FFO and AFFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions or service indebtedness. FFO and AFFO also should not be used as a supplement to or substitute for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) to FFO and AFFO is included in the financial information accompanying this release.


Adjusted EBITDA and Annualized Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA, or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, modified to include other adjustments to GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders for, real estate acquisition costs, impairment losses, gains/losses from the sale of real estate and debt transactions and other items that are not considered to be indicative of our on-going operating performance. We exclude these items as they are not key drivers in our investment decision making process. We focus our business plans to enable us to sustain increasing shareholder value. Accordingly, we believe that excluding these items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income, but are not indicative of overall long-term operating performance, provides a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts in assessing the net earnings contribution of our real estate portfolio. Because these measures do not represent net income (loss) that is computed in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) or as an indicator of financial performance.

Annualized Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by multiplying Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter by four. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA and Annualized Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the methodology used

6



by other equity REITs to calculate these measures, and, therefore, may not be comparable to such other REITs. A reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP) to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Annualized Adjusted EBITDA is included in the financial information accompanying this release.

Adjusted Debt and Leverage

Adjusted Debt represents interest bearing debt (reported in accordance with GAAP) adjusted to include preferred stock and exclude unamortized debt discount/premium and deferred financing costs, as further reduced for cash and cash equivalents and cash collateral deposits retained by lenders. We believe that including preferred stock in Adjusted Debt is appropriate because it is an equity security that has properties of a debt instrument not possessed by common stock. Additionally, by excluding unamortized debt discount/premium and deferred financing costs, cash and cash equivalents, and cash collateral deposits retained by lenders, the result provides an estimate of the contractual amount of borrowed capital to be repaid which we believe is a beneficial disclosure to investors.

Leverage is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure we use to evaluate the level of borrowed capital being used to increase the potential return of our real estate investments. We calculate Leverage by dividing Adjusted Debt by Annualized Adjusted EBITDA. The utility of Leverage should be considered as a supplemental measure of the level of risk that stockholder value may be exposed to. Our computation of Leverage may differ from the methodology used by other equity REITs, and, therefore, may not be comparable to such other REITs. A reconciliation of interest bearing debt (reported in accordance with GAAP) to Adjusted Debt is included in the financial information accompanying this release.

Normalized Revenues, Normalized Rental Revenues, and Portfolio Composition Calculation

Spirit's portfolio composition metrics are calculated based upon the assets held on the stated date. Normalized Revenues and Normalized Rental Revenues for the stated period exclude revenues derived from properties sold during the stated period.

Property Portfolio Diversification
The following tables present the diversity of our properties owned at the end of the reporting period. The portfolio metrics are calculated based on the percentage of total revenue or rental revenue as noted. Total revenues and total rental revenue used in the calculations are normalized to exclude revenues contributed by properties sold during the given period.
Diversification By Tenant

The tenant concentration percentage is computed by dividing a tenant's quarterly rental revenue by the Company's normalized total revenues.
The following table lists the top ten tenants of our owned real estate properties as of March 31, 2015:
