FCPT Announces Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial and Operating Results

Management Comments

“FCPT demonstrated great discipline on both capital raising and investing in 2024. We successfully acquired $265 million of properties leased to diverse national brands at accretive pricing. We ended the year with great momentum, closing on over $132 million of acquisitions in the fourth quarter,” said CEO Bill Lenehan. “While the market remains volatile, we have already raised significant debt and equity capital in recent months to support continued AFFO growth.
