About the Data
INVESTOR REVIEW
This data and other information described herein are as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2017, unless otherwise
indicated. Future performance may not be consistent with past performance and is subject to change and inherent risks and
uncertainties. This information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations sections contained in VEREIT, Inc.'s (the "Company", "VEREIT", "us", "our"
and "we") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three
months ended September 30, 2017. Effective January 1, 2017, the Company determined certain non-GAAP measures and
operating metrics, which include portfolio metrics, should exclude the impact of properties owned by the Company for the month
beginning with the date that (i) the related mortgage loan is in default, and (ii) management decides to transfer the properties to
the lender in connection with settling the mortgage note obligation and ending with the disposition date, to better reflect the
ongoing operations of the Company. The Company did not update data presented for periods prior to March 31, 2017, and the
three months then ended, as the impact on non-GAAP measures, including AFFO and Normalized EBITDA, and operating metrics
was immaterial. See the definitions section for a description of the Excluded Properties.

Forward-Looking Statements
INVESTOR REVIEW
Information set forth herein (including information included or incorporated by reference herein) contains “forward-looking
statements” (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), which reflect VEREIT’s expectations regarding future events and VEREIT's future financial
condition, results of operations and business. The forward-looking statements involve a number of assumptions, risks,
uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking
statements. Generally, the words “expects,” “anticipates,”“assumes,” “targets,” “goals,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,”
“estimates,” variations of such words and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, most of which are difficult to predict and many of
which are beyond VEREIT’s control. If a change occurs, VEREIT’s business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations
may vary materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements.
The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements:
VEREIT’s plans, market and other expectations, objectives, intentions and other statements that are not historical facts; the
developments disclosed herein; VEREIT’s ability to execute on and realize success from its business plan; VEREIT’s ability to meet
its updated 2017 guidance; the unpredictability of the business plans and financial condition of VEREIT’s tenants; the impact of
impairment charges in respect of certain of VEREIT’s properties or other assets; risks associated with pending government
investigations and litigations related to VEREIT's previously disclosed audit committee investigation; the inability of Cole Capital
to regain its prior level of capital raise; the ability to retain or hire key personnel; and continuation or deterioration of current
market conditions. Additional factors that may affect future results are contained in VEREIT’s filings with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which are available at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. VEREIT disclaims any obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of changes in underlying assumptions or factors,
new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

PORTFOLIO
Size, Diversity and Single Tenant Focus Protects Against Disruptors
VEREIT's strategy of well-positioned single tenant properties in a diversified portfolio - made
optimum by our size - helps protect against a variety of cyclical and secular disruptors. In today's
retail environment, one of the key disruptors is the evolution of e-commerce. Retailers who
embrace e-commerce and have the resources to implement omnichannel distribution are
proving successful. Fundamentals of retail should not be forgotten. Those who continue to
provide true retail value - merchandise, price and service - will also thrive.
The core retail merchandise groups within our portfolio are dominated by discount; pharmacy;
grocery; home and garden and convenience. A full listing is provided herein. Within each
category, our focus is to create a portfolio that can both service omnichannel distribution while
always considering the consumer experience. Combined, 91% of our retail and restaurant tenant
base is service and/or retail merchandise categories with lower online disruption.
Ultimate credit protection is a function of multi-layer diversification. The prior pages present
information such as geographies, weighted average lease term and tenant margin analysis. The
following breakdown provides a deeper look into the retail tenant diversification of the VEREIT
portfolio by merchandise category.
VEREIT's Single-Tenant Retail Advantages
• Dominated by off-price and necessity shopping; only 0.2% of income is derived from Apparel &
Jewelry, far less than other retail formats
• Approximately 65% of retail revenue derived from public companies
• Credit tenants on long-term leases with substantial capital investment (45.6% investment grade)
• Generally, no use restrictions or co-tenancy issues
• Ability to target desired tenants and industries

INVESTOR REVIEW
Annualized Rental Income is rental revenue under our leases on Operating Properties on
a straight-line basis, which includes the effect of rent escalations and any tenant concessions,
such as free rent, and excludes any bad debt allowances and any contingent rent, such as
percentage rent. Management uses Annualized Rental Income as a basis for tenant, industry
and geographic concentrations and other metrics within the portfolio. Annualized Rental
Income is not indicative of future performance.
Debt Outstanding and Adjusted Debt Outstanding are non-GAAP measures that
represent the Company's outstanding principal debt balance, excluding certain GAAP
adjustments, such as premiums and discounts, financing and issuance costs, and related
accumulated amortization. Beginning in 2017, Adjusted Debt Outstanding omits the
outstanding principal balance of mortgage notes secured by Excluded Properties. We
believe that the presentation of Debt Outstanding and Adjusted Debt Outstanding, which
show our contractual debt obligations, provides useful information to investors to assess
our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage. Debt Outstanding
and Adjusted Debt Outstanding should not be considered as alternatives to the Company's
consolidated debt balance as determined in accordance with GAAP or any other GAAP
financial measures and should only be considered together with, and as a supplement to,
the Company's financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA Normalized EBITDA, as disclosed, represents EBITDA, or
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, modified to exclude non-
routine items such as acquisition-related expenses, litigation, merger and other non-routine
transactions costs, net of insurance recoveries, gains or losses on sale of investment
securities or mortgage notes receivable and legal settlements and insurance recoveries not
in the ordinary course of business. We also exclude certain non-cash items such as
impairments of goodwill and real estate and intangible assets, straight-line rental revenue,
gains or losses on derivatives, gains or losses on the extinguishment or forgiveness of debt,
write-off of program development costs, and amortization of intangibles, above-market
lease assets and below-market lease liabilities.
Beginning in 2017, Normalized EBITDA omits the Normalized EBITDA impact of Excluded
Properties. Management believes that excluding these costs from EBITDA provides investors
with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance
models and analysis used by management, and provides investors a view of the
performance of our portfolio over time. The Company believes that Normalized EBITDA is
a useful non-GAAP supplemental measure to investors and analysts for assessing the
performance of the Company's business segments.
Therefore, Normalized EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income,
as computed in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the Company's financial
performance. The Company uses Normalized EBITDA as one measure of its operating
performance when formulating corporate goals and evaluating the effectiveness of the
Company's strategies. Normalized EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures of other companies.
Economic Occupancy Rate equals the sum of square feet leased (including month-to-
month agreements) divided by Rentable Square Feet.
Excluded Properties are properties for which (i) the related mortgage loan is in default,
and (ii) management decides to transfer the properties to the lender in connection with
settling the mortgage note obligation.
Excluded Properties during the three months ended and at March 31, 2017, were one
vacant office property and one vacant industrial property, comprising an aggregate
of 578,000 square feet with aggregate Debt Outstanding of $41.8 million. Excluded
Properties during the three months ended June 30, 2017, were two vacant office
properties and five industrial properties, two of which were vacant. Excluded
Properties at June 30, 2017, and during the three months ended September 30, 2017,
were two vacant office properties and one vacant industrial property, comprising an
aggregate 991,000 square feet with aggregate Debt Outstanding of $83.9 million. At
September 30, 2017, the Excluded Property was one vacant industrial property,
comprising 307,275 square feet with Debt Outstanding of $16.2 million.
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is the sum of (i) Interest Expense, excluding non-cash
amortization, (ii) secured debt principal amortization on Adjusted Debt Outstanding
and (iii) dividends attributable to preferred shares divided by Normalized EBITDA.
Management believes that Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is a useful supplemental
measure of our ability to satisfy fixed financing obligations.

INVESTOR REVIEW
Funds from Operations ("FFO") and Adjusted Funds from Operations ("AFFO"): Due
to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below,
the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT"), an industry
trade group, has promulgated a supplemental performance measure known as FFO,
which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure to reflect the
operating performance of a REIT. FFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as
determined under U.S. GAAP.
NAREIT defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP,
excluding gains or losses from disposition of property, depreciation and amortization of
real estate assets and impairment write-downs on depreciable real estate including the
pro rata share of adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We
calculated FFO in accordance with NAREIT's definition described above.
In addition to FFO, we use AFFO as a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance
measure to evaluate the operating performance of the Company. AFFO, as defined by the
Company, excludes from FFO non-routine items such as acquisition-related expenses,
litigation and other non-routine costs, net of insurance recoveries, gains or losses on sale
of investment securities or mortgage notes receivable and legal settlements and
insurance recoveries not in the ordinary course of business. We also exclude certain non-
cash items such as impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, straight-line rental
revenue, gains or losses on derivatives, reserves for loan loss, gains or losses on the
extinguishment or forgiveness of debt, non-current portion of the tax benefit or expense,
equity-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets, deferred financing
costs, premiums and discounts on debt and investments, above-market lease assets and
below-market lease liabilities.
Effective January 1, 2017, we determined to omit the impact of the Excluded Properties
and related non-recourse mortgage notes from FFO to calculate AFFO. Management
believes that excluding these costs from FFO provides investors with supplemental
performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis
used by management, and provides investors a view of the performance of our portfolio
over time. AFFO allows for a comparison of the performance of our operations with other
publicly-traded REITs, as AFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by
publicly-traded REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors for comparison
purposes.
For all of these reasons, we believe FFO and AFFO, in addition to net income (loss), as
defined by U.S. GAAP, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful in
understanding the various ways in which our management evaluates the performance of
the Company over time. However, not all REITs calculate FFO and AFFO the same way, so
comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO and AFFO should not be
considered as alternatives to net income (loss) and are not intended to be used as a
liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs. Neither the
SEC, NAREIT, nor any other regulatory body has evaluated the acceptability of the
exclusions used to adjust FFO in order to calculate AFFO and its use as a non-GAAP
financial performance measure.
Gross Real Estate Investments represent total gross real estate and related assets of
Operating Properties, including net investments in unconsolidated entities, investment in
direct financing leases, investment securities backed by real estate and loans held for
investment, net of gross intangible lease liabilities.

INVESTOR REVIEW
Interest Coverage Ratio equals Normalized EBITDA divided by Interest Expense, excluding
non-cash amortization. Management believes that Interest Coverage Ratio is a useful
supplemental measure of our ability to service our debt obligations.
Interest Expense, excluding non-cash amortization is a non-GAAP measure that
represents interest expense incurred on the outstanding principal balance of our debt. This
measure excludes (i) the amortization of deferred financing costs, premiums and discounts,
which is included in interest expense in accordance with GAAP, and (ii)the impact of
Excluded Properties and related non-recourse mortgage notes. We believe that the
presentation of Interest Expense, excluding non-cash amortization, which shows the
interest expense on our contractual debt obligations, provides useful information to
investors to assess our overall solvency and financial flexibility. Interest Expense, excluding
non-cash amortization should not be considered as an alternative to the Company's interest
expense as determined in accordance with GAAP or any other GAAP financial measures and
should only be considered together with and as a supplement to the Company's financial
information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Net Debt is a non-GAAP measure used to show the Company's Adjusted Debt Outstanding,
less all cash and cash equivalents. We believe that the presentation of Net Debt provides
useful information to investors because our management reviews Net Debt as part of its
management of our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage.
Net Debt Leverage Ratio equals Net Debt divided by Gross Real Estate Investments. We
believe that the presentation of Net Debt Leverage Ratio provides useful information to
investors because our management reviews Net Debt Leverage Ratio as part of its
management of our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage.
Normalized EBITDA Annualized equals Normalized EBITDA, for the respective quarter,
multiplied by four.
Net Debt to Normalized EBITDA Annualized equals Net Debt divided by the current
quarter Normalized EBITDA multiplied by four. We believe that the presentation of Net Debt
to Normalized EBITDA Annualized provides useful information to investors because our
management reviews Net Debt to Normalized EBITDA Annualized as part of its management
of our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage.
Operating Properties refers to all properties owned by the Company and beginning in
2017, it omits Excluded Properties owned by the Company as of the reporting date.
Rentable Square Feet is leasable square feet of Operating Properties.
Secured Debt Ratio equals secured Adjusted Debt Outstanding divided by Adjusted Debt
Outstanding.
Unencumbered Asset Ratio equals unencumbered Gross Real Estate Investments divided
by Gross Real Estate Investments. Management believes that Unencumbered Asset Ratio is
