PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY | 23WWW.PHILLIPSEDISON.COM/INVESTORS NON-GAAP MEASURES PECO presents Same-Center NOI as a supplemental measure of its performance. PECO defines NOI as total operating revenues, adjusted to exclude non-cash revenue items, less property operating expenses and real estate taxes. For the three months and years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, Same-Center NOI represents the NOI for the 275 properties that were wholly-owned and operational for the entire portion of both comparable reporting periods. PECO believes Same-Center NOI provides useful information to its investors about PECO’s financial and operating performance because it provides a performance measure of the revenues and expenses directly involved in owning and operating real estate assets and provides a perspective not immediately apparent from net income (loss). Because Same-Center NOI excludes the change in NOI from properties acquired or disposed of after December 31, 2018, it highlights operating trends such as occupancy levels, rental rates, and operating costs on properties that were operational for both comparable periods. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating Same-Center NOI, and accordingly, PECO’s Same-Center NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. Same-Center NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of PECO’s financial performance as it does not reflect the operations of its entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other income (expense), or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of PECO’s properties that could materially impact its results from operations.

PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY | 25WWW.PHILLIPSEDISON.COM/INVESTORS NON-GAAP MEASURES Funds from Operations and Core Funds from Operations FFO is a non-GAAP performance financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) defines FFO as net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and gains (or losses) from change in control, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for impairment losses on real estate and impairments of in-substance real estate investments in investees that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of the depreciable real estate held by the unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. PECO calculates FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests in a manner consistent with the Nareit definition, with an additional adjustment made for noncontrolling interests that are not convertible into common stock. Core FFO is an additional performance financial measure used by PECO as FFO includes certain non-comparable items that affect PECO’s performance over time. PECO believes that Core FFO is helpful in assisting management and investors with the assessment of the sustainability of operating performance in future periods. PECO believes it is more reflective of its core operating performance and provides an additional measure to compare its performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that may cause short-term fluctuations in net income (loss). To arrive at Core FFO, PECO adjusts FFO attributable to stockholders and convertible noncontrolling interests to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization of corporate assets, changes in the fair value of the earn-out liability, amortization of unconsolidated joint venture basis differences, gains or losses on the extinguishment or modification of debt, other impairment charges, and transaction and acquisition expenses. FFO, FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests, and Core FFO should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) under GAAP, as an indication of PECO’s liquidity, nor as an indication of funds available to cover PECO’s cash needs, including its ability to fund distributions. Core FFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if PECO does not continue to operate its business plan in the manner currently contemplated. Accordingly, FFO, FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests, and Core FFO should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements, and should not be viewed as more prominent measures of performance than net income (loss) or cash flows from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. PECO’s FFO, FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests, and Core FFO, as presented, may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs.

Restricted stock awards were dilutive to FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests per share and Core FFO per share for the three months and years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and, accordingly, their impact was included in the weighted-average common shares used in their respective per share calculations. For the three months ended December 31, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2019, restricted stock units had an anti-dilutive effect upon the calculation of earnings per share and thus were excluded.

PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY | 28WWW.PHILLIPSEDISON.COM/INVESTORS Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization for Real Estate (“EBITDAre”) and Adjusted EBITDAre Nareit defines EBITDAre as net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP before (i) interest expense, (ii) income tax expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) gains or losses from disposition of depreciable property, and (v) impairment write-downs of depreciable property. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect EBITDAre on the same basis. Adjusted EBITDAre is an additional performance measure used by PECO as EBITDAre includes certain non-comparable items that affect PECO’s performance over time. To arrive at Adjusted EBITDAre, PECO excludes certain recurring and non-recurring items from EBITDAre, including, but not limited to: (i) changes in the fair value of the earn-out liability; (ii) other impairment charges; (iii) amortization of basis differences in PECO’s investments in its unconsolidated joint ventures; and (iv) transaction and acquisition expenses. PECO has included the calculation of EBITDAre to better align with publicly traded REITs. PECO uses EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre as additional measures of operating performance which allow PECO to compare earnings independent of capital structure, determine debt service and fixed cost coverage, and measure enterprise value. Additionally, PECO believes they are a useful indicator of PECO’s ability to support its debt obligations. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss), as an indication of PECO’s liquidity, nor as an indication of funds available to cover PECO’s cash needs, including its ability to fund distributions. Accordingly, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements, and should not be viewed as more prominent measures of performance than net income (loss) or cash flows from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. PECO’s EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, as presented, may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs. NON-GAAP MEASURES
