NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. BUSINESS

Business

Gladstone Land Corporation is an agricultural real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that was re-incorporated in Maryland on March 24, 2011, having been previously re-incorporated in Delaware on May 25, 2004, and having been originally incorporated in California on June 14, 1997. We are primarily in the business of owning and leasing farmland, and we conduct substantially all of our operations through a subsidiary, Gladstone Land Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership. The Company owned 89.1% and 87.4% of the limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership ("OP Units") as of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively (see Note 7, "Equity," for additional discussion regarding OP Units).

Subject to certain restrictions and limitations, and pursuant to contractual agreements, our business is managed by Gladstone Management Corporation (the “Adviser”), a Delaware corporation, and administrative services are provided to us by Gladstone Administration, LLC (the “Administrator”), a Delaware limited liability company. Our Adviser and Administrator are both affiliates of ours (see Note 6, "Related-Party Transactions," for additional discussion regarding our Adviser and Administrator).

All further references herein to “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer, collectively, to Gladstone Land Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, except where indicated otherwise.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Interim Financial Information

Our interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals, necessary for the fair statement of financial statements for the interim period have been included. The interim financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 21, 2017 (the “Form 10-K”). The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain line items on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on previously-reported stockholders’ equity, net income or net change in cash and cash equivalents.

Non-controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests are interests in the Operating Partnership not owned by us. We evaluate whether non-controlling interests are subject to redemption features outside of our control. As of both June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the non-controlling interests in the Operating Partnership are redeemable at the option of the holder for cash or, at our election, shares of our common stock and thus are reported in the equity section of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet but separate from stockholders’ equity. The amounts reported for non-controlling interests on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations represent the portion of income from the Operating Partnership not attributable to us. At the end of each reporting period, we determine the amount of equity (at book value) that is allocable to non-controlling interests based upon the respective ownership interests. To reflect the non-controlling interests' equity interest in the Company, an

Table of Contents

adjustment is made to non-controlling interests, with a corresponding adjustment to paid-in capital, as reflected on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Equity.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make judgments that are subjective in nature in order to make certain estimates and assumptions, and our application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment regarding the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties. A summary of our significant accounting policies is provided in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Form 10-K. There were no material changes to our significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Recently-Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" ("ASU 2014-09"), which was amended in March 2016 by ASU 2016-08, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)" ("ASU 2016-08"), in April 2016 by ASU 2016-10, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing" ("ASU 2016-10"), in May 2016 by ASU 2016-12, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients" ("ASU 2016-12"), and in December 2016 by ASU 2016-20, "Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASU 2016-20"). ASU 2014-09, as amended, supersedes or replaces nearly all GAAP revenue recognition guidance and establishes a new, control-based revenue recognition model, changes the basis for deciding when revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time and will expand disclosures about revenue. In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date," which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09, as amended. ASU 2014-09, as amended, is now effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years. We do not believe ASU 2014-09 will have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition, as the primary impact of this update is related to common area maintenance and other material tenant reimbursements, whereas the majority of our revenue is from rental income pursuant to net-lease agreements, with very little being attributed to tenant recoveries.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842): An Amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification” (“ASU 2016-02”). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the leases is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee, which classification determines whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis, respectively, over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months, regardless of the classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 supersedes the previous leasing standard, ASC 840, “Leases,” and is effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We expect our legal expenses (included in General and administrative expenses on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations) to increase marginally, as the new standard requires us to expense indirect leasing costs that were previously capitalized; however, we do not expect ASU 2016-02 to materially impact our condensed consolidated financial statements, as we currently only have two operating ground lease arrangements with terms greater than one year for which we are the lessee.

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2017-01, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business" ("ASU 2017-01"), which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting, including acquisitions and disposals. ASU 2017-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We have early adopted ASU 2017-01, effective October 1, 2016. As a result of our adoption of ASU 2017-01, we anticipate that most of our farmland acquisitions will be treated as asset acquisitions under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 360, which will result in a lower amount of acquisition-related costs being expensed on our condensed consolidated statements of operations, as the majority of those costs will be capitalized and included as part of the fair value allocation of the purchase price.

New Real Estate Activity

Until our adoption of ASU 2017-01, which clarified the definition of a business, certain acquisitions during the prior-year period were accounted for as business combinations in accordance with ASC 805, as there was a prior leasing history on the property. As such, the fair value of all assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined in accordance with ASC 805, and all acquisition-related costs were expensed as incurred, other than those costs directly related to reviewing or assigning leases that we assumed upon acquisition, which were capitalized as part of leasing costs. Upon our early adoption of ASU 2017-01, effective October 1, 2016, most acquisitions, including those with a prior leasing history, are now generally treated as an asset acquisition under ASC 360. For acquisitions accounted for as asset acquisitions under ASC 360, all acquisition-related costs were capitalized and included as part of the fair value allocation of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired, other than those costs that directly related to originating new leases we executed upon acquisition, which were capitalized as part of leasing costs.

In addition, total consideration for acquisitions may include a combination of cash and equity securities, such as OP Units. When OP Units are issued in connection with acquisitions, we determine the fair value of the OP Units issued based on the number of units issued multiplied by the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of acquisition.

Significant Existing Real Estate Activity

Lease Extensions and Renewals

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we extended or renewed eight separate leases on seven different farms in California and Florida that had leases expiring in either 2017 or 2018. In total, these leases were renewed for additional terms ranging between one and five years and for total annualized rents of approximately $1.1 million, representing a decrease of approximately $4,000 (approximately 0.3%) from that of the prior leases. These renewals were executed without incurring any downtime on the respective farms, and no leasing commissions or tenant improvements were incurred in connection with these renewals.

Concentrations

Credit Risk

As of June 30, 2017, our farms were leased to 44 different, third-party tenants, with certain tenants leasing more than one farm. One unrelated tenant ("Tenant A") leases five of our farms, and aggregate rental revenue attributable to Tenant A accounted for approximately $2.1 million, or 18.1% of the rental revenue recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2017. In addition, Dole Food Company (“Dole”) leases two of our farms, and aggregate rental revenue attributable to Dole accounted for approximately $1.5 million, or 12.6% of the rental revenue recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2017. If either Tenant A or Dole fail to make rental payments or elect to terminate their respective leases, and the properties cannot be re-leased on satisfactory terms, there could be a material adverse effect on our financial performance and ability to continue operations. No other individual tenant represented greater than 10.0% of the total rental revenue recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Geographic Risk

As of June 30, 2017, 22 of the 65 farms we owned were located in California, 16 farms were located in Florida and 9 farms were located in Colorado. Further, our California, Florida, and Colorado farms accounted for approximately $5.7 million (48.8%), $3.1 million (26.8%), and $1.3 million (11.4%), respectively, of the rental revenue recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2017. Though we seek to continue to further diversify geographically, as may be desirable or feasible, should an unexpected natural disaster occur where our properties are located, there could be a material adverse effect on our financial performance and ability to continue operations. No other single state accounted for more than 10.0% of the total rental revenue recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

MetLife Borrowings

MetLife Facility

On May 9, 2014, we closed on a credit facility (the "MetLife Facility") with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (“MetLife”) that originally consisted of a $100.0 million long-term note payable (the “2015 MetLife Term Note”) and a $25.0 million revolving equity line of credit (the “2015 MetLife Line of Credit”). As amended on October 5, 2016, the overall size of the

Table of Contents

MetLife Facility was increased from $125.0 million to $200.0 million (the "2016 Amendment"). Pursuant to the 2016 Amendment, the MetLife Facility now consists of the 2015 MetLife Term Note, the 2015 MetLife Line of Credit, a $50.0 million long-term note payable (the "2016 MetLife Term Note" and, together with the 2015 MetLife Term Note, the "MetLife Term Notes"), the terms of which are pari passu with those of the 2015 MetLife Term Note, and a $25.0 million revolving equity line of credit (the "2016 MetLife Line of Credit" and, together with the 2015 MetLife Line of Credit, the "MetLife Lines of Credit"), the terms of which are pari passu to those of the 2015 MetLife Line of Credit.

Fair Value

ASC 820 provides a definition of fair value that focuses on the exchange (exit) price of an asset or liability in the principal, or most advantageous, market and prioritizes the use of market-based inputs to the valuation. ASC 820-10, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:


•	Level 1 — inputs that are based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;


•	Level 2 — inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active or inactive markets or model-based valuation techniques, for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and


•	Level 3 — inputs are generally unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. These unobservable inputs are generally supported by little or no market activity and are based upon management's estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability

As of June 30, 2017, the aggregate fair value of our long-term, fixed-rate mortgage notes and bonds payable was approximately $234.0 million, as compared to an aggregate carrying value (excluding unamortized related debt issuance costs) of $238.6 million. The fair value of our long-term, fixed-rate mortgage notes and bonds payable is valued using Level 3 inputs under the hierarchy established by ASC 820-10 and is calculated based on a discounted cash flow analysis, using discount rates based on management’s estimates of market interest rates on long-term debt with comparable terms. Further, due to the revolving nature of the MetLife Lines of Credit and the lack of changes in market credit spreads, their aggregate fair value as of June 30, 2017, is deemed to approximate their aggregate carrying value of approximately $35.1 million.

NOTE 5. MANDATORILY-REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

On August 17, 2016, we completed a public offering of 1,000,000 shares of 6.375% Series A Cumulative Term Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Term Preferred Stock"), at a public offering price of $25.00 per share. Simultaneous with the closing of the offering and on the same terms and conditions, the underwriters exercised in full their option to purchase an

Table of Contents

additional 150,000 shares of the Term Preferred Stock to cover over-allotments. As a result of this offering, we issued a total of 1,150,000 shares of the Term Preferred Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $28.8 million and net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses borne by us, of approximately $27.6 million. These proceeds were used to repay existing indebtedness, to fund new property acquisitions and for other general corporate purposes. The Term Preferred Stock is traded under the ticker symbol, "LANDP," on the NASDAQ Global Market. The Term Preferred Stock is not convertible into our common stock or any other securities.

Generally, we may not redeem shares of the Term Preferred Stock prior to September 30, 2018, except in limited circumstances to preserve our qualification as a REIT. On or after September 30, 2018, we may redeem the shares at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The shares of the Term Preferred Stock have a mandatory redemption date of September 30, 2021. We incurred approximately $1.2 million in total offering costs related to this issuance, which have been recorded net of the Term Preferred Stock as presented on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, and we will amortize these costs over the redemption period, which ends on September 30, 2021.

The Term Preferred Stock is recorded as a liability on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet in accordance with ASC 480, "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity," which states that mandatorily redeemable financial instruments should be classified as liabilities. In addition, the related dividend payments are treated similar to interest expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

As of June 30, 2017, the fair value of our Term Preferred Stock was approximately $29.9 million, as compared to the carrying value, exclusive of offering costs, of $28.8 million. The fair value of our Term Preferred Stock is valued using Level 1 inputs under the hierarchy established by ASC 820-10, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures," and is calculated based on the closing share price as of June 30, 2017, of $25.98.

The dividends to preferred stockholders declared by our Board of Directors and paid by us during the six months ended June 30, 2017, are reflected in the table below. The Term Preferred Stock was not outstanding during the prior-year period.

NOTE 6. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

We are externally managed pursuant to contractual arrangements with our Adviser and our Administrator, which collectively employ all of our personnel and pay their salaries, benefits and general expenses directly. Both our Adviser and Administrator are affiliates of ours, as their parent company is owned and controlled by David Gladstone, our chairman and chief executive officer. In addition, two of our executive officers, Mr. Gladstone and Terry Brubaker (our vice chairman and chief operating officer), serve as directors and executive officers of each of our Adviser and Administrator, and Michael LiCalsi, our general counsel and secretary, serves as our Administrator’s president.

The advisory agreement with our Adviser that was in effect through March 31, 2017 (the “Advisory Agreement”), and the current administration agreement with our Administrator (the “Administration Agreement”) each became effective February 1, 2013. A summary of each of these agreements is provided in Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Form 10-K.

On April 11, 2017, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement (the "Amended Advisory Agreement") with our Adviser that became effective beginning with the three months ended June 30, 2017. Our entrance into the Amended Advisory Agreement was approved unanimously by our board of directors, including, specifically, our independent directors.

In addition, on April 11, 2017, we entered into an agreement with Gladstone Securities, LLC, ("Gladstone Securities"), effective beginning with the three months ended June 30, 2017, for it to act as our non-exclusive agent to assist us with arranging financing for our properties (the "Financing Arrangement Agreement"). Gladstone Securities is a privately-held broker-dealer registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority and insured by the Securities Investor Protection

Table of Contents

Corporation. Gladstone Securities is an affiliate of ours, as its parent company is owned and controlled by David Gladstone, our chairman and chief executive officer. Mr. Gladstone also serves on the board of managers of Gladstone Securities.

A summary of the compensation terms for each of the Amended Advisory Agreement and the Financing Arrangement Agreement follows.

Amended Advisory Agreement

Pursuant to the Amended Advisory Agreement, effective beginning with the three months ended June 30, 2017, our Adviser is compensated in the form of a base management fee and, each as applicable, an incentive fee, a capital gains fee and a termination fee. Each of these fees is described below.

Base Management Fee

A base management fee will be paid quarterly and will be calculated as 2.0% per annum (0.50% per quarter) of the prior calendar quarter's total adjusted equity, which is defined as total equity plus total mezzanine equity, if any, each as reported on our balance sheet, adjusted to exclude unrealized gains and losses and certain other one-time events and non-cash items ("Total Equity").

Incentive Fee

An incentive fee will be calculated and payable quarterly in arrears if the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO (as defined below) for a particular quarter exceeds a hurdle rate of 1.75% (7.0% annualized) of the prior calendar quarter's Total Equity. For purposes of this calculation, Pre-Incentive Fee FFO is defined in the Amended Advisory Agreement as FFO (as defined in the Amended Advisory Agreement) accrued by the Company during the current calendar quarter (prior to any incentive fee calculation for the current calendar quarter), less any dividends paid on preferred stock securities that are not treated as a liability for GAAP purposes. Our Adviser will receive: (i) no Incentive Fee in any calendar quarter in which the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO does not exceed the hurdle rate; (ii) 100% of the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO with respect to that portion of such Pre-Incentive Fee FFO, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized); and (iii) 20% of the amount of the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO, if any, that exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized).

Capital Gains Fee

A capital gains-based incentive fee will be calculated and payable in arrears at the end of each fiscal year (or upon termination of the Amended Advisory Agreement). The capital gains fee shall equal: (i) 15% of the cumulative aggregate realized capital gains minus the cumulative aggregate realized capital losses, minus (ii) any aggregate capital gains fees paid in prior periods. For purposes of this calculation, realized capital gains and losses will be calculated as (x) the sales price of the property minus (y) any costs to sell the property and the then-current gross value of the property (which includes the property's original acquisition price plus any subsequent, non-reimbursed capital improvements). At the end of each fiscal year, if this figure is negative, no capital gains fee shall be paid.

Termination Fee

In the event of our termination of the Amended Advisory Agreement for any reason (with 120 days’ prior written notice and the vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors), a termination fee would be payable to the Adviser equal to three times the sum of the average annual base management fee and incentive fee earned by the Adviser during the 24-month period prior to such termination.

Financing Arrangement Agreement

In connection with the Financing Arrangement Agreement, Gladstone Securities may, from time to time, solicit the interest of various agricultural or commercial real estate lenders and/or recommend to us third-party lenders offering credit products or packages that are responsive to our needs. We will pay Gladstone Securities a financing fee in connection with the services it provides to us for securing financing on our properties. Depending on the size of the financing obtained, the maximum amount of the financing fee, which will be payable upon closing of the respective financing, will range from 0.5% to 1.0% of the amount of financing obtained. The amount of the financing fee may be reduced or eliminated as determined by us and Gladstone Securities after taking into consideration various factors, including, but not limited to, the involvement of any third-party brokers and market conditions. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, total financing fees paid to Gladstone Securities represented approximately 0.01% of the total financing secured during the period.

NOTE 7. EQUITY

Stockholders’ Equity

As of June 30, 2017, there were 18,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, authorized, with 11,850,624 shares issued and outstanding. As of December 31, 2016, there were 18,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, authorized, with 10,024,875 shares issued and outstanding.

Non-Controlling Interests in Operating Partnership

We consolidate our Operating Partnership, which is a majority-owned partnership. As of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, we owned approximately 89.1% and 87.4%, respectively, of the outstanding OP Units.

On or after 12 months after becoming a holder of OP Units, each limited partner, other than the Company, has the right, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership, to require the Operating Partnership to redeem all or a portion of such units in exchange for cash or, at the Company’s option, shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. The cash redemption per OP Unit would be based on the market price of our common stock at the time of redemption. A limited partner will not be entitled to exercise redemption rights if the delivery of common stock to the redeeming limited partner would breach restrictions on the ownership of common stock imposed under our charter and other limitations thereof.

Table of Contents

Regardless of the rights described above, the Operating Partnership will not have an obligation to issue cash to a unitholder upon a redemption request if the Company elects to redeem the OP Units for shares of its common stock. When a non-Company unitholder redeems an OP Unit, non-controlling interest in the Operating Partnership is reduced, and stockholders’ equity is increased.

The Operating Partnership is required to make distributions on each OP Unit in the same amount as those paid on each share of the Company’s common stock, with the distributions on the OP Units held by the Company being utilized to make distributions to the Company’s common stockholders.

As of both June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, there were 1,449,258 OP Units held by non-controlling limited partners. In addition, as of June 30, 2017, 745,879 OP Units held by non-controlling limited partners had been held for the required period of 12 months and thus were eligible to be redeemed for either cash or shares of our common stock.

Distributions

The distributions to common stockholders declared by our Board of Directors and paid by us during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are reflected in the table below.



Fiscal Year	Declaration Date	Record Date	Payment Date	Distributions per Common Share

The same amounts were paid as distributions on each OP Unit held by non-controlling limited partners of the Operating Partnership as of the above record dates.

We will provide information related to the federal income tax characterization of our 2017 distributions in an IRS Form 1099-DIV, which will be mailed to our stockholders in January 2018.

Registration Statement

We filed a universal registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-194539) with the SEC on March 13, 2014 (the "2014 Registration Statement"), which the SEC declared effective on April 2, 2014. The 2014 Registration Statement, which was scheduled to expire on April 1, 2017, permitted us to issue up to an aggregate of $300.0 million in securities, consisting of common stock, senior common stock, preferred stock, subscription rights, debt securities and depository shares, including through separate, concurrent offerings of two or more such securities. We issued a total of 4,013,763 shares of common stock and 1,150,000 shares of preferred stock for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $73.1 million under the 2014 Registration Statement.

On March 30, 2017, we filed a new universal registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-217042) with the SEC (the "2017 Registration Statement") to replace the expiring 2014 Registration Statement. The 2017 Registration Statement, which was declared effective by the SEC on April 12, 2017, permits us to issue up to an aggregate of $300.0 million in securities, consisting of common stock, preferred stock, warrants, debt securities, depository shares, subscription rights and units, including through separate, concurrent offerings of two or more of such securities. As of June 30, 2017, we have not issued any securities under the 2017 Registration Statement.

Table of Contents

In conjunction with the replacement of the 2014 Registration Statement, we wrote off approximately $46,000 of unallocated costs associated with the initial filing of the 2014 Registration Statement. These costs were written off to professional fees and stockholder-related expenses, each of which are included in General and administrative expenses on our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

2017 Equity Issuance

On March 8, 2017, we completed a public offering of 1,680,000 shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $11.35 per share. This issuance settled on March 13, 2017, and resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $19.1 million and net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses borne by us, of approximately $18.0 million. On March 17, 2017, the underwriters exercised a portion of their over-allotment option in connection with this offering, and, as a result, we issued an additional 145,749 shares. This issuance settled on March 22, 2017, and resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $1.7 million and net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses borne by us, of approximately $1.6 million. We used the proceeds received from this offering to repay existing indebtedness and for other general corporate purposes.

At-the-Market Program

On August 7, 2015, we entered into equity distribution agreements (commonly referred to as "at-the-market agreements" or our "Sales Agreements") with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc. (each a “Sales Agent”), under which we may issue and sell, from time to time and through the Sales Agents, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $30.0 million (the “ATM Program”). No shares were issued or sold under the ATM Program during the six months ended June 30, 2017. Through June 30, 2017, we have issued and sold a total of 64,561 shares of our common stock at an average sales price of $10.23 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $660,000 and net proceeds of approximately $650,000.

On April 13, 2017, we amended each of the Sales Agreements to reference the new 2017 Registration Statement. All other material terms of the Sales Agreements remained unchanged.

NOTE 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Operating Obligations

In connection with the lease we executed upon our acquisition of an 854-acre farm in California in September 2015, we agreed to fund the development of the property into an almond orchard. The development included the removal of 274 acres of old grape vineyards, the installation of a new irrigation system, including the drilling of four new wells, and the planting of over 800 acres of new almond trees. As of June 30, 2017, the development project has been completed at a total cost of approximately $8.4 million, and, as a result, we expect to receive approximately $5.2 million of additional rent throughout the remainder of the lease term, which expires January 9, 2031.

In connection with a lease amendment we executed on one of our Oregon farms in May 2017, we committed to providing up to $1.8 million of capital for anticipated improvements on the farm, including irrigation upgrades and the planting of new blueberry bushes, which improvements are expected to be completed by December 31, 2020. As stipulated in the lease amendment, we will begin earning additional rent on the cost of the improvements as the funds are disbursed by us at an initial annual rate of 6.5%, which rate is subject to annual escalations and market resets. As a result of this project, and assuming full deployment of the capital commitment amount, we expect to receive approximately $718,000 of additional rent throughout the remainder of the lease term, which expires September 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2017, we have expended or accrued approximately $353,000 related to this project.

In connection with the lease we executed upon our acquisition of our two North Carolina farms in June 2017, we committed to providing up to $300,000 of capital over the first two years to support additional plantings and infrastructure on the farm, which improvements are expected to be completed by June 30, 2019. As stipulated in the lease, we will earn additional rent on the total cost of the improvements as disbursements are made by us at a rate commensurate with the annual yield on the farmland (as determined by each year's minimum cash rent per the lease). As a result of this project, and assuming full deployment of the capital commitment amount, we expect to receive approximately $157,000 of additional rent throughout the remainder of the lease term, which expires December 31, 2026. As of June 30, 2017, we have expended or accrued approximately $103,000 related to this project.

In connection with a lease amendment we executed on one of our Florida properties in June 2017, we committed to providing up to $700,000 of capital to expand and upgrade the existing cooler on the property, which improvements are expected to be completed during the three months ending December 31, 2017. As stipulated in the lease amendment, we will begin earning

additional rent on the cost of the improvements as the funds are disbursed by us at an initial annual rate of 8.5%, which rate is subject to annual escalations. As a result of this project, and assuming full deployment of the capital commitment amount, we expect to receive approximately $280,000 of additional rent throughout the remainder of the lease term, which expires June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2017, we have expended or accrued approximately $5,000 related to this project.

Litigation

We are not currently subject to any material known or threatened litigation.

NOTE 9. EARNINGS PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods. The non-controlling limited partners’ outstanding OP Units (which may be redeemed for shares of common stock) have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculations, as there would be no effect on the amounts since the non-controlling limited partners’ share of income would also be added back to net income. Net income figures are presented net of non-controlling interests in the earnings per share calculations.



	For the Three Months Ended June 30,				For the Six Months Ended June 30,

Earnings per common share – basic and diluted	$	0.02	$	0.01	$	0.03	$	0.03

The weighted-average number of OP Units held by non-controlling limited partners was 1,449,258 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, and 745,978 and 491,788 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Investing and Leasing Activities

New Acquisitions

On July 17, 2017, we acquired four contiguous farms totaling 847 gross acres in Fresno County, California (“Phelps Avenue”), for approximately $13.6 million. In total, the farms contain 645 planted acres of pistachio and almond trees planted between 2002 and 2009. At closing, we entered into a sale-leaseback agreement with the seller for a 10-year, triple-net lease that includes one, five-year extension option. The lease consists of a fixed cash rent component plus a variable rent component based on the gross crop revenues earned on the farms and provides for minimum annualized, straight-line rents of approximately $680,000. We will account for this acquisition as an asset acquisition in accordance with ASC 360.

Lease Renewals

Subsequent to June 30, 2017, we renewed the lease on one of our California farms that was originally subject to a lease scheduled to expire in the second half of 2017. The lease was renewed with a new tenant for an additional period of three years and provides for annualized rental income of approximately $0.8 million, representing an increase of approximately $25,000 (approximately 3.4%) from that of the prior lease. This renewal was completed without incurring any downtime on the farm, and no leasing commissions or tenant improvements were incurred in connection with this renewal.

Financing Activities

On July 13, 2017, we, through certain subsidiaries of our Operating Partnership, refinanced four existing mortgage loans with Farm Credit CFL for aggregate additional borrowings of approximately $5.5 million. Each of the new loans are scheduled to mature on August 1, 2022, and will bear interest (before interest patronage) at a fixed rate of 4.47% throughout their respective terms.

In connection with the acquisition of Phelps Avenue, on July 17, 2017, we closed on a loan from Farm Credit West for approximately $8.2 million. The mortgage note is scheduled to mature on May 1, 2037, and will bear interest (before interest patronage) at a fixed rate of 4.31% per annum through July 31, 2024, thereafter converting to a variable rate determined by Farm Credit West, unless another fixed rate is established.

OVERVIEW

General

We are an externally-managed, agricultural real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that is engaged primarily in the business of owning and leasing farmland; we are not a grower, nor do we farm the properties we own. We currently own 69 farms comprised of 58,777 acres across eight states in the U.S. (Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Michigan, Nebraska, North Carolina and Oregon). We also own several farm-related facilities, such as cooling facilities, buildings utilized for the storage and assembly of boxes for shipping produce ("box barns"), packinghouses, processing facilities and various storage facilities.

We conduct substantially all of our investment activities through, and all of our properties are held, directly or indirectly, by, Gladstone Land Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). Gladstone Land Corporation controls the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and currently owns, directly or indirectly, approximately 89.2% of the units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”).

Gladstone Management Corporation (our “Adviser”) manages our real estate portfolio pursuant to an advisory agreement, and Gladstone Administration, LLC (our “Administrator”), provides administrative services to us pursuant to an administration agreement. Our Adviser and our Administrator collectively employ all of our personnel and pay directly their salaries, benefits and general expenses.

Leases

General

Our farms are currently leased to 44 different, third-party tenants that are either independent or corporate farming operations. We primarily lease our farms on a triple-net basis, an arrangement under which the tenant is required to pay the related taxes, insurance costs (including drought insurance if we were to acquire properties that depend upon rainwater for irrigation), maintenance and other operating costs. Generally, our leases will have original terms ranging from 3 to 10 years for farms growing row crops and 5 to 15 years for farms growing permanent crops and will contain built-in rental rate increases. Currently, our 69 farms are leased under agricultural leases with original terms ranging from 1 to 15 years, with 45 farms leased on a pure triple-net basis, and 24 farms leased on a partial-net basis, with the landlord responsible for all or a portion of the related property taxes. Additionally, 11 of our farms are leased under agreements that include a variable rent component based on the success of the farms' harvests each year.

Lease Expirations

Farm leases are often short-term in nature, so in any given year, we may have multiple leases up for renewal or extension. The following table summarizes the lease expirations by year for the properties owned and with leases in place as of June 30, 2017 (dollars in thousands):



Year	Number of Expiring Leases		Expiring Leased Acreage	% of Total Acreage	Rental Revenue for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017		% of Total Revenue

⁽¹⁾	Includes: one agricultural lease that was renewed subsequent to June 30, 2017 (see Note 10, "Subsequent Events," in the notes to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements), and two oil and gas leases (both of which continue on a year-to-year basis), for which we recorded aggregate rental revenue of approximately $16,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

We have one remaining agricultural lease scheduled to expire during the second half of 2017. We are close to finalizing terms of this renewal with a new tenant and expect the renewal to be executed during the three months ending September 30, 2017, at a moderate decrease in rent but without incurring any downtime on the farm. We have not yet begun negotiations with the existing tenants on our farms that have leases scheduled to expire in 2018, though we anticipate being able to renew each of the leases prior to their respective expirations with the existing tenants. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to renew the leases at rates favorable to us, if at all, or be able to find replacement tenants, if necessary.

⁽³⁾	Annualized straight-line amount is based on the minimum cash rental payments guaranteed under the lease, as required under GAAP.

⁽⁴⁾

Includes two farms (1,368 total acres) acquired through a leasehold interest, with the State of Arizona as the lessor. These state leases expire in February 2022 and February 2025, respectively. In addition, in connection with the acquisition of this property, we assumed four in-place leases with us as the lessor or sublessor. Three of these leases are agricultural leases, with one lease expiring on June 30, 2019, and two leases expiring on September 15, 2026. The fourth lease is a residential lease that expires on September 30, 2019.


⁽⁵⁾	Leases also provide for a variable rent component based on the gross crop revenues earned on the property. The figures above represent only the minimum cash rents guaranteed under the lease.

Existing Properties

Lease Renewals

As of January 1, 2017, we had nine agricultural leases on certain farms in California and Florida that were originally due to expire in 2017. We have extended or renewed eight of these leases, in addition to one lease that was scheduled to expire in 2018. In total, these leases were renewed for additional terms ranging between one and five years and for total annualized rents of approximately $1.8 million, representing an increase of approximately 1.2% (or approximately $22,000) from that of the prior leases. These renewals were executed without incurring any downtime on the respective farms, and no leasing commissions or tenant improvements were incurred in connection with these renewals.

Capital Improvements

In connection with certain lease agreements executed during the three months ended June 30, 2017, we committed to providing up to $2.8 million of aggregate capital to our tenants for improvements on certain of our farms. These improvements are expected to be completed over the next three years and, assuming full deployment of the capital commitment amounts, are expected to result in additional annual rental income of approximately $162,000. We will begin earning rental income on each of these projects as the funds are disbursed by us. See Note 8, "Commitments and Contingencies," in the notes to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for a more detailed discussion on each of these projects.

⁽²⁾	Where applicable, rate is before interest patronage, or refunded interest.


⁽³⁾	Interest patronage is expected to be received related to interest accrued during 2017 on our CF Farm Credit borrowings; however, we are unable to estimate the amount to be received, if any.

⁽⁴⁾

In April 2017, we received interest patronage from Farm Credit CFL representing a 15.8% refund of the interest accrued on all borrowings from Farm Credit CFL during the year ended December 31, 2016. This interest patronage reduced the interest rates on our borrowings from Farm Credit CFL during the year ended December 31, 2016, from a weighted-average stated interest rate of 3.47% to a weighted-average effective interest rate of 2.93%. We are unable to estimate the amount of interest patronage to be received, if any, related to interest accrued during 2017 on our Farm Credit CFL borrowings.

⁽⁵⁾

In February 2017, we received interest patronage from Farm Credit West representing a 21.3% refund of the interest accrued on all borrowings from Farm Credit West during the year ended December 31, 2016. This interest patronage reduced the interest rates on our borrowings from Farm Credit West during the year ended December 31, 2016, from a weighted-average stated interest rate of 3.59% to a weighted-average effective interest rate of 2.83%. We are unable to estimate the amount of interest patronage to be received, if any, related to interest accrued during 2017 on our Farm Credit West borrowings.

Proceeds from the above borrowings were used to fund new farm acquisitions, repay existing indebtedness, and for general corporate purposes.

Equity Activity

At-the-Market Program

On August 7, 2015, we entered into equity distribution agreements ("Sales Agreements") with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc. (each a “Sales Agent”), under which we may issue and sell, from time to time and through the Sales Agents, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $30.0 million (the “ATM Program”). On April 13, 2017, we amended the Sales Agreements to reference the new universal registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-217042) (the "2017 Registration Statement"), filed with the SEC on March 31, 2017, and declared effective on April 12, 2017. All other material terms of the Sales Agreements remained the same.

Table of Contents

No shares were sold under the ATM Program during the three or six months ended June 30, 2017; however, subsequent to June 30, 2017, through the date of this filing, we sold 161,133 shares of our common stock at an average sales price of $11.90 per share for gross and net proceeds of approximately $1.9 million. To date, we have sold 225,694 shares of our common stock at an average sales price of $11.42 per share under the ATM Program for gross proceeds of approximately $2.6 million and net proceeds of approximately $2.5 million.

Portfolio Diversity

Since our initial public offering in January 2013 (the “IPO”), we have expanded our portfolio from 12 farms leased to 7 different, unrelated tenants to a current portfolio of 69 farms leased to 44 different, unrelated tenants. While our focus remains in farmland suitable for growing fresh produce annual row crops, we have also begun to diversify our portfolio into farmland suitable for other crop types, including permanent crops, consisting primarily of almonds, pistachios and blueberries, and certain commodity crops, consisting primarily of corn and beans. The following table summarizes the different sources of revenues for our properties with leases in place as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 (dollars in thousands):

Our Adviser and Administrator

We are externally managed pursuant to a contractual investment advisory arrangement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with our Adviser, under which our Adviser directly employs certain of our personnel and pays their payroll, benefits and general expenses directly, and our Administrator provides administrative services to us pursuant to a separate administration agreement with our Administrator (the “Administration Agreement”). Both our Adviser and Administrator are affiliates of ours, as their parent company is owned and controlled by Mr. David Gladstone, our chairman and chief executive officer. In addition, two of our executive officers, Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Terry Brubaker (our vice chairman and chief operating officer), serve as directors and executive officers of each of our Adviser and Administrator. Mr. Michael LiCalsi, our general counsel and secretary, also serves as our Administrator’s president. On April 11, 2017, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement (the "Amended Advisory Agreement") with our Adviser that became effective beginning with the three months ended June 30, 2017. Our entrance into the Amended Advisory Agreement was approved unanimously by our board of directors, including, specifically, our independent directors.

A summary of each of the Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement is provided in Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2016 Form 10-K. A summary of the compensation terms for the Amended Advisory Agreement is below.

Amended Advisory Agreement

Pursuant to the Amended Advisory Agreement, effective beginning with the three months ended June 30, 2017, our Adviser is compensated as follows:


•	A base management fee is paid quarterly and will be calculated as 2.0% per annum (0.50% per quarter) of the prior calendar quarter's total adjusted equity, which is defined as total equity plus total mezzanine equity, if any, each as reported on our balance sheet, adjusted to exclude unrealized gains and losses and certain other one-time events and non-cash items ("Total Equity").

•

An incentive fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears if the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO (as defined below) for a particular quarter exceeds a hurdle rate of 1.75% (7.0% annualized) of the prior calendar quarter's Total Equity. For purposes of this calculation, Pre-Incentive Fee FFO is defined in the Amended Advisory Agreement as FFO (as defined in the Amended Advisory Agreement) accrued by the Company during the current calendar quarter (prior to any incentive fee calculation for the current calendar quarter), less any dividends paid on preferred stock securities that are not treated as a liability for GAAP purposes. Our Adviser will receive: (i) no Incentive Fee in any calendar quarter in which the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO does not exceed the hurdle rate; (ii) 100% of the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO with respect to that portion of such Pre-Incentive Fee FFO, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized); and (iii) 20% of the amount of the Pre-Incentive Fee FFO, if any, that exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized).

•

A capital gains-based incentive fee is calculated and payable in arrears at the end of each fiscal year (or upon termination of the Amended Advisory Agreement). The capital gains fee shall equal (i) 15% of the cumulative aggregate realized capital gains minus the cumulative aggregate realized capital losses, minus (ii) any aggregate capital gains fees paid in prior periods. For purposes of this calculation, realized capital gains and losses will be calculated as (x) the sales price of the property minus (y) any costs to sell the property and the then-current gross value of the property (which includes the property's original acquisition price plus any subsequent, non-reimbursed capital improvements). At the end of each fiscal year, if this figure is negative, no capital gains fee shall be paid.

•

In the event of our termination of the Amended Advisory Agreement (or in the event of non-renewal by us) for any reason (with 120 days’ prior written notice and the vote of at least two-thirds of our independent directors), a termination fee would be payable to the Adviser equal to three times the sum of the average annual base management fee and incentive fee earned by the Adviser during the 24-month period prior to such termination.

We expect this amendment to result in an increase to our base management fee in future periods, as the previous base management fee calculation did not include non-controlling interests in our Operating Partnership. In addition, if, in the future, we choose to issue either securities that are classified as mezzanine equity or preferred stock that is required to be treated as permanent equity under GAAP, these amounts will increase the base on which our base management fee is calculated, whereas they were excluded in the previous calculation of our base management fee. However, we expect our overall incentive fee (including the capital gains-based incentive fee) to be lower in future periods due to: (i) a higher base management fee (which will result in a lower Pre-Incentive Fee FFO) and (ii) a lower fee on any capital gains we may realize, as the previous incentive fee calculation essentially included a 20% fee on realized capital gains.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make judgments that are subjective in nature to make certain estimates and assumptions. Application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment regarding the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties, and, as a result, actual results could materially differ from these estimates. A summary of our significant accounting policies is provided in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2016 Form 10-K. There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Rental revenues on a same-property basis increased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily as a result of our ability to renew existing but expiring leases at higher rates and earning additional revenue on capital improvements constructed on certain properties. Rental revenues from acquired properties increased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, due to the additional revenues recorded from owning the one and four farms we acquired during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, for the full three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2017, coupled with the additional revenues earned from the 18 new farms we acquired subsequent to June 30, 2016. We had one farm in Florida that was vacant for a portion of the three months ended June 30, 2016. Rental revenues from this farm decreased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, due to an early lease termination on the farm and the subsequent re-leasing of the farm at a lower rental rate. We expect to be able to renew the current lease on the farm at an increased rental rate upon its expiration in August 2018; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to renew the lease at a rate favorable to us, if at all, or be able to find a replacement tenant, if necessary.

Depreciation and amortization expense on a same-property basis increased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily as a result of additional depreciation on site improvements completed on certain properties subsequent to June 30, 2016, partially offset by the expiration of certain lease intangible amortization periods subsequent to June 30, 2016. Depreciation and amortization expense on acquired properties increased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, due to the additional depreciation and amortization expense recorded from owning the one and four farms we acquired during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, for the full three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2017, coupled with the additional depreciation and amortization expense incurred on the 18 new farms we acquired subsequent to June 30, 2016.

Property operating expenses consist primarily of real estate taxes, insurance expense, and other overhead expenses paid for certain of our properties. Property operating expenses on a same-property basis increased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily due to additional expenses incurred related to obtaining certain permits on one of our California properties, as well as a net increase in aggregate property tax expense (due to one of our pure, triple-net leases converting to a partial-net lease during the three months ended December 31, 2016, partially offset by a decrease in property taxes on certain properties that were entered into land conservation contracts under the California Land Conservation Act, which restricts the land to agricultural use and reduces the property tax assessment). Property operating expenses on acquired properties increased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily due to additional property taxes owed on certain of the new farms we acquired during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, and subsequent to June 30, 2016. On our overall portfolio, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we accrued approximately $163,000 and $324,000, respectively, of aggregate real estate taxes related to certain of our farms, as compared to approximately $122,000 and $265,000 for the respective prior-year periods.

Other Operating Expenses

Acquisition-related expenses generally consist of legal fees and fees incurred for third-party reports prepared in connection with potential acquisitions and the related due diligence analyses. Acquisition-related expenses increased for the three months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the prior-year period, due to an increase in overall acquisition-related activities. Acquisition-related expenses decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to the differences in accounting treatment of such expenses incurred in connection with the properties acquired during each

Table of Contents

of the respective periods or expected to be acquired in the near future (i.e., acquisition costs are capitalized under ASC 360 if the acquisition is considered an asset acquisition, whereas such costs are expensed under ASC 805 if the acquisition is treated as a business combination). With our early adoption of ASU 2017-01, as defined in Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Recently-Issued Accounting Pronouncements," in the notes to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, we anticipate that most of our acquisitions will be treated as asset acquisitions, which will result in lower acquisition-related expenses, as the majority of these costs will be capitalized and included as part of the fair value allocation of the purchase price. As of June 30, 2017, we have capitalized approximately $38,000 of acquisition-related costs (which costs were incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2017) related to properties we expect to acquire during the three months ending September 30, 2017, as these acquisitions are reasonably assured to be completed and are expected to be treated as asset acquisitions. These costs are included in Other assets, net on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2017.

The aggregate net fees to our Adviser, including both the management and incentive fees, increased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the gross management fee increased by approximately $145,000 and $151,000, respectively, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily due to additional common equity raised since January 1, 2016. Since January 1, 2016, through June 30, 2017, we have raised approximately $19.9 million of net proceeds through follow-on common stock offerings and our ATM Program, increasing the base on which the management fee is calculated, which, until March 31, 2017, was the book value of our common stockholders' equity. In addition, pursuant to the Amended Advisory Agreement, which became effective beginning with the three months ended June 30, 2017, the base on which the management fee is calculated was adjusted to include, among other items, the balance of non-controlling interests in our operating partnership, which further increased the management fee recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Our Adviser also earned incentive fees during each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, and during the three months ended June 30, 2016, due to our pre-incentive fee funds from operations exceeding the required hurdle rate of the equity base applicable to each period (which was total stockholders' equity through March 31, 2017, as stipulated in our Advisory Agreement; and, beginning with the three months ended June 30, 2017, was total equity, as stipulated in our Amended Advisory Agreement). The incentive fee earned by our Adviser for the three months ended June 30, 2017, decreased by approximately $83,000 from that of the prior-year period due to the aforementioned changes in the Amended Advisory Agreement, which resulted in a higher management fee for the three months ended June 30, 2017, thus decreasing the pre-incentive fee funds from operations for the period. The incentive fee earned by our Adviser for the six months ended June 30, 2017, increased by approximately $268,000 over that of the prior-year period due to an increase in rental revenues earned on properties acquired during and subsequent to the six months ended June 30, 2016, outpacing that of operating expenses other than depreciation and amortization expense. See "Our Adviser and Administrator—Amended Advisory Agreement" above for further discussion on changes to the compensation terms stipulated in the Amended Advisory Agreement.

The administration fee paid to our Administrator increased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily due to higher overall costs incurred by our Administrator and us using a higher share of our Administrator’s resources in relation to those used by other funds serviced by our Administrator during each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

General and administrative expenses remained relatively flat for the three months ended June 30, 2017, and increased for the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily due to the write off of approximately $46,000 of unallocated costs associated with the initial filing of our prior universal registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-194539) (the "2014 Registration Statement"), which was replaced with the 2017 Registration Statement during the three months ended March 31, 2017. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2017, we incurred higher accounting fees, primarily due to increased acquisition volume and higher tax preparation fees, coupled with additional costs associated with the implementation of a new accounting system, which was completed during the three months ended June 30, 2016. These increases were largely offset by a decrease in bad debt expense, as we wrote off approximately $64,000 of deferred rent asset balances during the three months ended June 30, 2016, related to a lease on one of our Florida properties that was terminated prior to its expiration, and decreases in stockholder-related expenses, primarily due to lower costs related to our annual shareholders' meeting.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income, which consists primarily of interest patronage received from Farm Credit CFL and Farm Credit West (collectively, "Farm Credit") and interest earned on short-term investments, decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2017, and increased for the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods. Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2016, consisted primarily of the reimbursement of certain legal costs incurred in prior periods related to the settlement of an eminent domain matter on one of our farms. The increase in other income during the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the prior-year period, was primarily due to additional interest patronage received

Table of Contents

from Farm Credit. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we recorded approximately $183,000 of interest patronage from Farm Credit related to interest accrued during 2016, compared to $94,000 of interest patronage received during the prior-year period. The receipt of this interest patronage resulted in a 17.2% decrease (approximately 61 basis points) in our effective interest rate on our aggregate borrowings from Farm Credit during the year ended December 31, 2016.

Interest expense increased for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the respective prior-year periods, primarily due to increased overall borrowings. The weighted-average principal balance of our aggregate borrowings (excluding our 6.375% Series A Cumulative Term Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Term Preferred Stock")) outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, was approximately $253.0 million and $252.0 million, respectively, as compared to $178.8 million and $163.6 million, respectively, for the respective prior-year periods. Including interest patronage received on our Farm Credit borrowings, the overall effective interest rate charged on our aggregate borrowings, excluding the impact of deferred financing costs, was 3.28% and 3.12% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, as compared to 3.25% and 3.15%, respectively, for the respective prior-year periods.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we paid aggregate distributions on our Term Preferred Stock (which distributions are treated similar to interest expense) of approximately $458,000 and $917,000, respectively. There was no Term Preferred Stock outstanding during either prior-year period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

Since our IPO in January 2013, we have invested approximately $380.9 million into 57 new farms, and we have expended or accrued an additional $17.6 million for improvements on existing properties. Our current short- and long-term sources of funds include cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, borrowings, including the undrawn commitments available under the MetLife Facility and the Farmer Mac Facility, and issuances of additional equity securities. Our current available liquidity is approximately $13.0 million, consisting of $4.1 million in cash and, based on the current level of collateral pledged, $8.9 million of availability under the MetLife Facility, subject to compliance with covenants.

As of June 30, 2017, our total-debt-to-total-capitalization ratio (including our Term Preferred Stock as debt), at book value, was 74.2%, compared to 72.8% as of December 31, 2016. However, on a fair value basis, our total-debt-to-total capitalization ratio (including our Term Preferred Stock as debt) as of June 30, 2017, was 60.9%, which is up from 59.3% as of December 31, 2016 (see “Non-GAAP Financial Information—Net Asset Value” below for an explanation of our fair value process).

Future Capital Needs

Our short- and long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of making distributions to stockholders (including non-controlling OP Unitholders) to maintain our qualification as a REIT, funding our general operating costs, making principal and interest payments on outstanding borrowings, making dividend payments on our Term Preferred Stock and, as capital is available, funding new farmland and farm-related acquisitions consistent with our investment strategy.

We believe that our current and short-term cash resources will be sufficient to fund our distributions to stockholders (including non-controlling OP Unitholders), service our debt, pay dividends on our Term Preferred Stock and fund our current operating costs in the near term. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements through various sources of capital, including future equity issuances (including, but not limited to, OP Units through our Operating Partnership as consideration for future acquisitions and shares of common stock through our ATM Program), long-term mortgage indebtedness and bond issuances and other secured and unsecured borrowings.

We intend to use a significant portion of any current and future available liquidity to purchase additional farms and farm-related properties. We continue to actively seek and evaluate acquisitions of additional farms and farm-related properties that satisfy our investment criteria, and our pipeline of potential acquisitions remains healthy. We currently have four properties under signed purchase and sale agreements for an aggregate proposed purchase price of approximately $31.1 million (a portion of which is expected to be paid in OP Units), which we expect to be consummated during the second half of 2017. We currently have access to the capital required to complete these transactions for the proposed purchase price amounts; however, we continue to explore various options for access to additional capital. We also have many other properties that are in various other stages of our due diligence process. However, all potential acquisitions will be subject to our due diligence investigation of such properties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in identifying or acquiring any properties in the future.

Cash Flow Resources

The following table summarizes total cash flows for operating, investing and financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 (dollars in thousands):



	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2017			2016			$ Change			% Change

Net change in Cash and cash equivalents	$	328		$	(456	)	$	784		(171.9)%

Operating Activities

The majority of cash from operating activities is generated from the rental payments we receive from our tenants, which is first used to fund our property-level operating expenses, with any excess cash being primarily used for principal and interest payments on our borrowings, management fees to our Adviser, administrative fees to our Administrator and other corporate-level expenses. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the prior-year period, was primarily due to the receipt of two years of prepaid rent upon the closing of the three farms we acquired during the three months ended March 31, 2016, partially offset by additional rental payments received from farms we have acquired since June 30, 2016.

Investing Activities

The increase in cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the prior-year period, was primarily due to an increase in cash paid for acquisitions of new farms during the six months ended June 30, 2017, which exceeded that of the prior-year period by approximately $48.6 million. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of approximately $6.3 million in cash paid for capital improvements made on existing properties during the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the prior-year period.

Financing Activities

The increase in cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the prior-year period, was primarily due to increased net borrowings, as our net borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 2017, were approximately $26.1 million more than that of the prior-year period, as well as the $19.6 million of net cash proceeds received from a common equity offering we completed in March 2017 (the "2017 Follow-on Offering").

Debt Capital

MetLife

As amended on October 5, 2016, in aggregate, our facility with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company ("MetLife") consists of $150.0 million of term notes and $50.0 million of revolving equity lines of credit (the "MetLife Facility"). In aggregate, we currently have approximately $103.8 million outstanding under the term notes that bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.16% per annum (which rate is fixed until January 5, 2027) and approximately $36.5 million outstanding under the lines of credit that currently bear interest at 3.55% (which rate is variable). While approximately $54.4 million of the full commitment amount under the MetLife Facility remains undrawn (including approximately $5.3 million of aggregate amortizing principal payments made on the term notes), based on the current level of collateral pledged, we currently have approximately $8.9 million of availability under the facility.

Farmer Mac

As amended on June 16, 2016, our agreement with Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation ("Farmer Mac") provides for bond issuances up to an aggregate amount of $125.0 million (the "Farmer Mac Facility"). To date, we have issued aggregate bonds of approximately $82.7 million under the facility, and we currently have $81.5 million of bonds outstanding that bears interest at a weighted-average interest rate of 3.10% (which rates are fixed throughout the bonds' respective terms) and have a weighted-average maturity date of May 2021. While approximately $42.3 million of the full commitment balance remains undrawn, we currently have no additional availability under the Farmer Mac Facility based on the current level of collateral pledged. However, we expect to pledge certain additional potential new property acquisitions as collateral under the Farmer

Table of Contents

Mac Facility to utilize some or all of this remaining commitment balance. If we have not issued bonds such that the aggregate bond issuances total $125.0 million by December 11, 2018, Farmer Mac has the option to be relieved of its obligation to purchase additional bonds under this facility.

Farm Credit

Since September 19, 2014, we have closed on 17 separate loans with three different Farm Credit associations (including Farm Credit CFL, Farm Credit West, and CF Farm Credit, each as defined in Note 4, "Borrowings," in the notes to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements) for an aggregate amount of approximately $53.4 million (the "Farm Credit Notes Payable"). We currently have approximately $49.8 million outstanding under the Farm Credit Notes Payable that bear interest at an expected weighted-average effective interest rate (net of expected interest patronage) of 3.35% (which rates are fixed, on a weighted-average basis, until October, 2022) and have a weighted-average maturity date of December, 2030. While we do not currently have any additional availability under any of our Farm Credit programs based on the properties currently pledged as collateral, we expect to enter into additional borrowing agreements with existing and new Farm Credit associations in connection with certain potential new acquisitions.

Equity Capital

In connection with the 2017 Follow-on Offering, we issued a total of 1,825,749 shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $11.35 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $20.7 million and net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses borne by us, of approximately $19.6 million. We used the proceeds received from this offering to repay existing indebtedness and for other general corporate purposes.

On March 30, 2017, we filed the 2017 Registration Statement with the SEC to replace the 2014 Registration Statement. The 2017 Registration Statement, which was declared effective by the SEC on April 12, 2017, permits us to issue up to an aggregate of $300.0 million in securities (including approximately $27.4 million reserved for issuance under our ATM Program), consisting of common stock, preferred stock, warrants, debt securities, depository shares, subscription rights and units, including through separate, concurrent offerings of two or more of such securities. To date, we have issued approximately $1,918,000 of common stock under the 2017 Registration Statement through our ATM Program.

In addition, we have the ability to, and may in the future, issue additional OP Units to third parties as consideration in future property acquisitions.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Funds from Operations, Core Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) developed funds from operations (“FFO”) as a relative non-GAAP supplemental measure of operating performance of an equity REIT to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the same basis as determined under GAAP. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property and impairment losses on property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We further present core FFO (“CFFO”) and adjusted FFO (“AFFO”) as additional non-GAAP financial measures of our operational performance, as we believe both CFFO and AFFO improve comparability on a period-over-period basis and are more useful supplemental metrics for investors to use in assessing our operational performance on a more sustainable basis than FFO. We believe that these additional performance metrics provide investors with additional insight to how management measures our ongoing performance, as each of CFFO and AFFO (and their respective per-share amounts) are used by management and our board of directors, as appropriate, in assessing overall performance, as well as in certain decision-making analysis, including, but not limited to, the timing of acquisitions and potential equity raises (and the type of securities to offer in any such equity raises), the determination of any fee credits and declarations of distributions on our common stock. We believe that net income is the most directly-comparable GAAP measure to each of FFO, CFFO and AFFO.

Specifically, we believe that FFO is helpful to investors in better understanding our operating performance, primarily because its calculation excludes depreciation and amortization expense on real estate assets, as we believe that GAAP historical cost depreciation of real estate assets is generally not correlated with changes in the value of those assets, particularly with farmland real estate, the value of which does not diminish in a predictable manner over time, as historical cost depreciation implies. Further, we believe that CFFO and AFFO are helpful in understanding our operating performance in that it removes certain items that, by their nature, are not comparable on a period-over-period basis and therefore tend to obscure actual operating performance. In addition, we believe that providing CFFO and AFFO as additional performance metrics allows investors to gauge our overall performance in a manner that is more similar to how our performance is measured by management (including their respective per-share amounts), as well as by analysts and the overall investment community.

We calculate CFFO by adjusting FFO for the following items:

•

Acquisition-related expenses. Acquisition-related expenses (i.e., due diligence costs) are incurred for investment purposes and do not correlate with the ongoing operations of our existing portfolio. Further, due to the inconsistency in which these costs are incurred and how they have historically been treated for accounting purposes, we believe the exclusion of these expenses improves comparability of our results on a period-to-period basis.


•	Acquisition-related accounting fees. Certain auditing and accounting fees we incur are directly related to acquisitions and vary depending on the number and complexity of acquisitions completed during a period. Due to the inconsistency in which these costs are incurred, we believe the exclusion of these expenses improves comparability of our results on a period-to-period basis.


•	Other adjustments. We will adjust for certain non-recurring charges and receipts and will explain such adjustments accordingly.

Further, we calculate AFFO by adjusting CFFO for the following items:

•

Rent adjustments. This adjustment removes the effects of straight-lining rental income, as well as the amortization related to above-market lease values and accretion related to below-market lease values, deferred revenue and tenant improvements, resulting in rental income reflected on a modified accrual cash basis. In addition to these adjustments, we also modify our calculation in our definition of AFFO to provide greater consistency and comparability due to the period-to-period volatility in which cash rents are received. To coincide with our tenants’ harvest seasons, our leases typically provide for cash rents to be paid at various points throughout the lease year, usually annually or semi-annually. As a result, cash rents received during a particular period may not necessarily be comparable to other periods or represent the cash rents indicative of a given lease year. Therefore, we further adjust AFFO to normalize the cash rent received pertaining to a lease year over that respective lease year on a straight-line basis, resulting in cash rent being recognized ratably over the period in which the cash rent is earned.

Table of Contents


•	Amortization of deferred financing costs. The amortization of costs incurred to obtain financing is excluded from AFFO, as it is a non-cash expense item that is not directly related to the performance of our properties.

We believe the foregoing adjustments aid our investors' understanding of our ongoing operational performance.

FFO, CFFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, which, unlike FFO, CFFO and AFFO, generally reflects all cash effects of transactions and other events in the determination of net income, and should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance or to cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity or ability to make distributions. Comparisons of FFO, CFFO and AFFO, using the NAREIT definition for

FFO and the definitions above for CFFO and AFFO, to similarly-titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in the definitions used by such REITs.

Diluted funds from operations ("Diluted FFO"), diluted core funds from operations ("Diluted CFFO") and diluted adjusted funds from operations ("Diluted AFFO") per share are FFO, CFFO and AFFO, respectively, divided by the weighted-average number of total shares (including shares of our common stock and OP Units held by non-controlling limited partners) outstanding on a fully-diluted basis during a period. We believe that diluted earnings (loss) per share is the most directly-comparable GAAP measure to each of Diluted FFO, CFFO and AFFO per share. Because many REITs provide Diluted FFO, CFFO and AFFO per share information to the investment community, we believe these are useful supplemental measures when comparing us to other REITs.

We believe that FFO, CFFO and AFFO and Diluted FFO, CFFO and AFFO per share are useful to investors because they provide investors with a further context for evaluating our FFO, CFFO and AFFO results in the same manner that investors use net income and EPS in evaluating net income.

The following table provides a reconciliation of our FFO, CFFO and AFFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 to the most directly-comparable GAAP measure, net income, and a computation of diluted FFO, CFFO and AFFO per share, using the weighted-average number of total shares (including shares of our common stock and OP Units held by non-controlling limited partners) outstanding during the respective periods (dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts):

Net Asset Value

Real estate companies are required to record real estate using the historical cost basis of the real estate, adjusted for accumulated depreciation and amortization, and, as a result, the carrying value of the real estate does not typically change as the fair value of the assets change. Thus, a difficulty in owning shares of a real estate-based company is determining the fair

Table of Contents

value of the real estate so that stockholders can see the value of the real estate increase or decrease over time. For this reason, we believe determining the fair value of our real estate assets is useful to our investors.

Determination of Fair Value

Our Board of Directors reviews and approves the valuations of our properties pursuant to a valuation policy approved by our Board of Directors (the “Valuation Policy”). Such review and approval occurs in three phases: (i) prior to its quarterly meetings, the Board of Directors receives written valuation recommendations and supporting materials that are provided by professionals of the Adviser and Administrator, with oversight and direction from the chief valuation officer, who is also employed by the Administrator (collectively, the “Valuation Team”); (ii) the valuation committee of the Board of Directors (the “Valuation Committee”), which is comprised entirely of independent directors, meets to review the valuation recommendations and supporting materials; and (iii) after the Valuation Committee concludes its meeting, it and the chief valuation officer present the Valuation Committee’s findings to the entire Board of Directors so that the full Board of Directors may review and approve the fair values of our properties in accordance with the Valuation Policy. Further, on a quarterly basis, the Board of Directors reviews the Valuation Policy to determine if changes thereto are advisable and also reviews whether the Valuation Team has applied the Valuation Policy consistently.

Per the Valuation Policy, our valuations are derived based on the following:

•

For properties acquired within 12 months prior to the date of valuation, the purchase price of the property will generally be used as the current fair value unless overriding factors apply. In situations where OP Units are issued as partial or whole consideration in connection with the acquisition of a property, the fair value of the property will generally be the lower of: (i) the agreed-upon purchase price between the seller and the buyer (as shown in the purchase and sale agreement or contribution agreement and using the agreed-upon pricing of the OP Units, if applicable), or (ii) the value as determined by an independent, third-party appraiser.

•

For real estate we acquired more than one year prior to the date of valuation, we determine the fair value either by relying on estimates provided by independent, third-party appraisers or through an internal valuation process. In addition, if significant capital improvements take place on a property, we will typically have those properties reappraised upon completion of the project by an independent, third-party appraiser. In any case, we intend to have each property valued by an independent, third-party appraiser at least once every three years, with interim values generally being determined by our internal valuation process.

Various methodologies were used, both by the appraisers and in our internal valuations, to determine the fair value of our real estate on a fee simple, “As Is” basis, including the sales comparison, income capitalization (or a discounted cash flow analysis) and cost approaches of valuation. In performing their analyses, the appraisers (i) performed site visits to the properties, (ii) discussed each property with our Adviser and reviewed property-level information, including, but not limited to, property operating data, prior appraisals (as available), existing lease agreements, farm acreage, location, access to water and water rights, potential for future development and other property-level information, and (iii) reviewed information from a variety of sources about regional market conditions applicable to each of our properties, including, but not limited to, recent sale prices of comparable farmland, market rents for similar farmland, estimated marketing and exposure time, market capitalization rates and the current economic environment, among others. In performing our internal valuations, we will consider the most recent appraisal available and use similar methodologies in determining an updated fair value. We will also obtain updated market data related to the property, such as updated sales and market rent comparisons and market capitalization rates, and perform an updated assessment of the tenants’ credit risk profiles, among others. Sources of this data may come from market inputs from recent acquisitions of our own portfolio of real estate, recent appraisals of properties we own that are similar in nature and in the same region (as applicable) as the property being valued, market conditions and trends we observe in our due diligence process and conversations with appraisers, brokers and farmers.

A breakdown of the methodologies used to value our properties and the aggregate value as of June 30, 2017, determined by each method is shown in the table below (dollars in thousands, except in footnotes):



Valuation Method	Number of Farms	Total Acres	Farm Acres	Net Cost Basis⁽¹⁾		Current Fair Value			% of Total Fair Value

⁽¹⁾	Consists of the initial acquisition price (including the costs allocated to both tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed), plus subsequent improvements and other capitalized costs paid for by us that were associated with the properties, and adjusted for accumulated depreciation and amortization.


⁽²⁾	98.6% of this valuation, or approximately $153.1 million, is supported by values as determined by third-party appraisals performed between October 2014 and June 2016. The difference of approximately $2.2 million represents the net appreciation of those properties since the time of such appraisals, as determined in accordance with our Valuation Policy.


⁽³⁾	Appraisals performed between July 2016 and July 2017.

Some of the significant assumptions used by appraisers and the Valuation Team in valuing our portfolio as of June 30, 2017, include land values per farmable acre, market rental rates per farmable acre and capitalization rates, among others. These assumptions were applied on a farm-by-farm basis and were selected based on several factors, including comparable land sales, surveys of both existing and current market rates, discussions with other brokers and farmers, soil quality, size, location and other factors deemed appropriate. A summary of these significant assumptions is provided in the following table:



	Appraisal Assumptions			Internal Valuation Assumptions
	Range (Low - High)	Weighted Average		Range (Low - High)	Weighted Average
Land Value (per farmable acre)	$5,600 – $103,000	$	48,302	$4,123 – $105,000	$	47,830
Market Rent (per farmable acre)	$358 – $4,864	$	2,211	$215 – $4,500	$	1,851
Market Capitalization Rate	3.44% – 5.50%	4.46%		3.12% – 5.87%	4.08%

Note: Figures in the table above apply only to the farmland portion of our portfolio and exclude assumptions made relating to farm-related property, such as cooling facilities and box barns, and other structures on our properties, including residential housing and horticulture, as their aggregate value was considered to be insignificant in relation to that of the farmland.

Our Valuation Team reviews the appraisals, including the significant assumptions and inputs used in determining the appraised values, and considers any developments that may have occurred since the time the appraisals were performed. Developments considered that may have an impact on the fair value of our real estate include, but are not limited to, changes in tenant credit profiles; changes in lease terms, such as expirations and notices of non-renewals or to vacate; and potential asset sales, particularly those at prices different from the appraised values of our properties.

Management believes that the purchase prices of the farms acquired during the previous 12 months, the most recent appraisals available for the farms acquired prior to the previous 12 months that were not valued internally and the farms that were valued internally during the previous 12 months fairly represent the current market values of the properties as of June 30, 2017, and, accordingly, did not make any adjustment to these values.

A quarterly roll-forward of the change in our portfolio value for the three months ended June 30, 2017, from the prior value basis as of March 31, 2017, is provided in the table below (dollars in thousands):



Total portfolio fair value as of March 31, 2017			$	460,621
Plus: Acquisition of six new farms during the three months ended June 30, 2017			29,669
Plus net value appreciation (depreciation) during the three months ended June 30, 2017:
Six farms valued internally	$	1,300
15 farms valued via third-party appraisals	1,382
Total net appreciation for the three months ended June 30, 2017			2,682
Total portfolio fair value as of June 30, 2017			$	492,972

Management also determined fair values of all of its long-term borrowings. Using a discounted cash flow analysis, management determined that the fair value of all long-term encumbrances on our properties as of June 30, 2017, was approximately $234.0 million, as compared to a carrying value (excluding unamortized related debt issuance costs) of $238.6 million. In addition, using the closing stock price as of June 30, 2017, the fair value of the Term Preferred stock was

Table of Contents

determined to be approximately $29.9 million, as compared to a carrying value (excluding unamortized related issuance costs) of $28.8 million.

Calculation of Estimated Net Asset Value

To provide our stockholders with an estimate of the fair value of our real estate assets, we intend to estimate the fair value of our farm properties, expressed in terms of net asset value (“NAV”), and provide that to our stockholders on a quarterly basis. NAV is a non-GAAP, supplemental measure of financial position of an equity REIT and is calculated as total equity, adjusted for the increase or decrease in fair value of our real estate assets and long-term borrowings (including any preferred stock required to be treated as debt for GAAP purposes) relative to their respective costs bases. Further, we calculate NAV per common share by dividing NAV by our total common shares outstanding (consisting of our common stock and OP Units held by non-controlling limited partners). A reconciliation of NAV to total equity, which the Company believes is the most directly-comparable GAAP measure, is provided below.

The fair values presented above and their usage in the calculation of net asset value per share presented below have been prepared by and is the responsibility of management. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has neither examined, compiled nor performed any procedures with respect to the fair values or the calculation of net asset value per common share, which utilizes information that is not disclosed within the financial statements, and, accordingly, does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.

As of June 30, 2017, we estimate our NAV per common share to be $14.46, as detailed below (dollars in thousands, except per-share amount):



Total equity per balance sheet				$	104,476
Fair value adjustment for long-term assets:

Estimated NAV per common share				$	14.46


⁽¹⁾	Per Net Cost Basis as presented in the table above.


⁽²⁾	Per Current Fair Value as presented in the table above.


⁽³⁾	Includes the principal balances outstanding of all long-term borrowings (consisting of mortgage notes and bonds payable) and the Term Preferred Stock.


⁽⁴⁾	Long-term mortgage notes and bonds payable were valued using a discounted cash flow model. The Term Preferred Stock was valued based on its closing stock price as of June 30, 2017.


⁽⁵⁾	Includes 11,850,624 shares of common stock and 1,449,258 OP Units held by non-controlling limited partners (representing 10.9% of all OP Units issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2017).

A quarterly roll-forward in the estimated NAV per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2017, is provided below:



Estimated NAV per common share as of March 31, 2017				$	14.47
Plus net income				0.02
Plus change in valuations:
Net change in unrealized appreciation of farmland portfolio⁽¹⁾	$	0.19
Net change in unrealized fair value of long-term indebtedness	(0.09		)
Net change in valuations				0.10
Less distributions				(0.13		)
Estimated NAV per common share as of June 30, 2017				$	14.46

⁽¹⁾

The net change in unrealized appreciation of farmland portfolio consists of three components: (i) an increase of $0.20 due to the net appreciation in value of 21 farms that were valued during the three months ended June 30, 2017, (ii) an increase of $0.12 due to the aggregate depreciation and amortization expense recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2017, and (iii) a decrease of $0.13 due to capital improvements made on certain properties that have not been considered in the determination of the respective properties’ estimated fair values.

Table of Contents

Comparison of estimated NAV and estimated NAV per common share, using the definitions above, to similarly-titled measures for other REITs, may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in the calculation or application of the definition of NAV used by such REITs. In addition, the trading price of our common shares may differ significantly from our most recent estimated NAV per common share calculation. For example, while we estimated the NAV per share as of June 30, 2017, to be $14.46 per the calculation above, the closing price of our common stock on June 30, 2017, was $11.67, and it has subsequently traded between $11.26 and $14.09 per share.

While management believes the values presented reflect current market conditions, the ultimate amount realized on any asset will be based on the timing of such dispositions and the then-current market conditions. There can be no assurance that the ultimate realized value upon disposition of an asset will approximate the estimated fair value above.

We intend to report any adjustments to the estimated NAV, as well as to the values of our properties, in this section on a quarterly basis, but in no case less than annually. However, the determination of estimated NAV is subjective and involves a number of assumptions, judgments and estimates, and minor adjustments to these assumptions, judgments or estimates may have a material impact on our overall portfolio valuation. In addition, many of the assumptions used are sensitive to market conditions and can change frequently. Changes in the market environment and other events that may occur during our ownership of these properties may cause the values reported above to vary from the actual fair value that may be obtained in the open market.

ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market-sensitive instruments. The primary market risk that we believe we are and will be exposed to is interest rate risk. Certain of our existing leases contain escalations based on market indices, and certain of our existing borrowings are subject to variable interest rates. Further, the interest rates on certain of our fixed-rate borrowings are either fixed for a finite period before converting to variable rate or are subject to periodic adjustments. Although we seek to mitigate this risk by structuring certain provisions into many of our leases, such as escalation clauses or adjusting the rent to prevailing market rents at two- to three-year intervals, these features do not eliminate this risk. To date, we have not entered into any derivative contracts to attempt to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations.

As of June 30, 2017, excluding our Term Preferred Stock, the fair value of our fixed-rate borrowings outstanding, which accounted for approximately 87.0% of our total indebtedness, at cost, as of June 30, 2017, was approximately $234.0 million. However, interest rate fluctuations may affect the fair value of our fixed-rate borrowings. If market interest rates had been one percentage point lower or higher than those rates in place as of June 30, 2017, the fair value of our fixed-rate borrowings would have increased or decreased by approximately $11.8 million or $10.9 million, respectively.

There have been no material changes in the quantitative and qualitative market risk disclosures for the six months ended June 30, 2017, from that disclosed in our Form 10-K.



ITEM 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2017, our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2017, in providing a reasonable level of assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms, including providing a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable assurance of necessarily achieving the desired control objectives, and management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
