Net income available to common shareholders rose 55.5% to $94.1 million, or $1.22 per diluted share. The quarter included a $30.5 million gain on the sale of a private school property, which brought in $68.2 million in net proceeds. Funds from operations as adjusted, a standard real estate earnings measure, rose 8.8% to [$1.49 per share](https://www.9news.com/article/syndication/associatedpress/epr-properties-q3-earnings-snapshot/616-ab78750e-dc29-4dbd-9d19-08e1a07bbf4a?ref=bullished.co). For 2026 the company now guides that measure to $5.49 to $5.57, from $5.41 to $5.57, which it said is an 8.0% increase at the midpoint over 2025. Chairman and CEO Greg Silvers said the quarter showed "continued momentum across the business." ## First live venue, first Life Time EPR spent [$172.4 million](https://seekingalpha.com/news/4659491-epr-properties-trades-higher-on-beat-and-raise-q3-investment-spending-guidance-raised?ref=bullished.co) on investments in the quarter, bringing the nine-month total to $664.5 million. The spending included initial funding of a build-to-suit live performance venue in Portland, Oregon, operated by Live Nation, and the purchase of an existing Life Time fitness property in Irvine, California. The company's presentation calls both firsts for EPR. Theatres still make up roughly one-third of the portfolio, against a goal of about 20%, according to the presentation. As of December 31, 2025, the company's annual report put Experiential investments at 94% of the total, with early childhood education centers and private schools making up the rest. The company said the quarter's investments carried an average initial cash yield of about 8.3%. ## Funding the pipeline EPR entered two forward sale agreements under its at-the-market stock program, for gross proceeds of $66.6 million at an average price of $60.79 a share. Unsettled forward agreements covering 2,285,835 shares carry estimated net proceeds of $134.6 million. A new $1.6 billion credit agreement added a $600.0 million term loan, fully drawn at quarter end, and the $1.0 billion revolver had no borrowings.
