Quarter Ended September 30, 2025 Financial Results
NET INCOME attributable to common shareholders for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 was $11,589,000, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared to net loss attributable to common shareholders of $19,154,000, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the prior year's quarter.
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS ("FFO") attributable to common shareholders plus assumed conversions (non-GAAP) for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 was $117,372,000, or $0.58 per diluted share, compared to $99,256,000, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the prior year's quarter. Adjusting for the items that impact period-to-period comparability listed in the table on the following page, FFO attributable to common shareholders plus assumed conversions, as adjusted (non-GAAP) for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 was $114,535,000, or $0.57 per diluted share, and $102,755,000, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the prior year's quarter.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 Financial ResultsNET INCOME attributable to common shareholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $842,250,000, or $4.19 per diluted share, compared to $7,072,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase is primarily due to the $803,248,000 gain related to the 770 Broadway master lease with New York University ("NYU"), the $76,162,000 net gain recognized upon the disposition of a portion of the 666 Fifth condominium to UNIQLO, and the $17,240,000 reversal of PENN 1 rent expense previously accrued following the April 2025 rent reset determination (which is subject to the ongoing litigation described on page 4).
FFO attributable to common shareholders plus assumed conversions (non-GAAP) for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $373,482,000, or $1.86 per diluted share, compared to $352,914,000, or $1.79 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Adjusting for the items that impact period-to-period comparability listed in the table on the following page, FFO attributable to common shareholders plus assumed conversions, as adjusted (non-GAAP) for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $354,239,000, or $1.76 per diluted share, and $324,860,000, or $1.65 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Acquisitions
623 Fifth Avenue
On September 4, 2025, we purchased the 623 Fifth Avenue office condominium, a 36-story, 383,000 square foot building situated above the flagship Saks Fifth Avenue department store, for $218,000,000. At closing, we borrowed $145,420,000 under our revolving credit facility to partially finance the acquisition. We intend to redevelop the asset into a premier, boutique office building. We expect to complete the redevelopment for delivery to tenants in 2027.
Investment in Loan
On July 24, 2025, we purchased a $35,000,000 A-Note secured by a Midtown Manhattan property at par. The A-Note accrues interest at 4.89% plus 4.00% default interest. We previously acquired the $50,000,000 B-Note secured by the property in August 2024. The A-Note, together with the B-Note, is in default.
Dispositions
512 West 22nd Street
On August 14, 2025, a joint venture, in which we have a 55.0% interest, completed the sale of 512 West 22nd Street, a 173,000 square foot office building, for $205,000,000. The joint venture used a portion of the proceeds to repay the $122,930,000 mortgage loan encumbering the property. We received net proceeds of $37,900,000 and recognized a financial statement net gain of $11,002,000, which is included in "income from partially owned entities" on our consolidated statements of income.
49 West 57th Street
On June 26, 2025, a joint venture, in which we own a 50.0% interest, completed the sale of the 49 West 57th Street commercial condominium. We received net proceeds of $8,650,000 and recognized a financial statement net gain of $2,527,000 which is included in "income from partially owned entities" on our consolidated statements of income.
220 Central Park South
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we closed on the sale of two condominium units and ancillary amenities at 220 CPS for net proceeds of $24,839,000, resulting in a financial statement net gain of $13,702,000 which is included in "net gains on disposition of wholly owned and partially owned assets" on our consolidated statements of income. In connection with these sales, $2,592,000 of income tax expense was recognized on our consolidated statements of income. Two units remain unsold.
Canal Street Condominium Units
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we closed on the sale of six residential condominium units at 304-306 Canal Street and 334 Canal Street for net proceeds of $21,633,000, resulting in a financial statement net gain of $10,337,000 which is included in "net gains on disposition of wholly owned and partially owned assets" on our consolidated statements of income. Two units remain unsold.
666 Fifth Avenue (Fifth Avenue and Times Square JV)
On January 8, 2025, the Fifth Avenue and Times Square JV completed the sale to UNIQLO of the portion of its U.S. flagship store at 666 Fifth Avenue owned by the joint venture for $350,000,000 and realized net proceeds of $342,000,000. The net proceeds were used to partially redeem Vornado's preferred equity on the asset. The joint venture continues to own 23,832 square feet of retail space (7,416 square feet at grade) at 666 Fifth Avenue consisting of the Abercrombie & Fitch and Tissot stores. We recognized a financial statement gain of $76,162,000, which is included in "income from partially owned entities" on our consolidated statements of income.
Financing Activity
650 Madison Avenue
In October 2025, a joint venture, in which we own a 20.1% interest, received a notice of default (the "Notice") on the $800,000,000 non-recourse mortgage loan secured by 650 Madison Avenue, a 601,000 square foot Manhattan office and retail property. The Notice asserts that the joint venture is in default under the loan agreement due to its failure to pay the full interest and reserve amounts due and owing under the loan agreement and that the joint venture's obligations are now immediately due and payable.
As previously announced in the fourth quarter of 2022, Vornado wrote off its entire investment in 650 Madison Avenue and accordingly carries this investment at zero on its balance sheet and, since then, no longer records its share of net income (loss) from this investment.
4 Union Square South
On August 12, 2025, we completed a $120,000,000 refinancing of 4 Union Square South, a 204,000 square foot Manhattan retail property. The 10-year interest-only loan matures in September 2035 and has a fixed rate of 5.64%. The loan replaces the previous $120,000,000 loan that bore interest at SOFR plus 1.50% and was scheduled to mature in August 2025.
Financing Activity - continued
Alexander's Inc. ("Alexander's")
On August 1, 2025, Alexander's, in which we own a 32.4% common equity interest, entered into a 60-day extension with the lenders on the $300,000,000 non-recourse mortgage loan encumbering the retail condominium of 731 Lexington Avenue. The loan was previously scheduled to mature on August 5, 2025. Alexander's did not repay the loan on the extended maturity date of October 3, 2025. Alexander's is in discussions with the lenders regarding a potential loan restructuring.
PENN 11
On July 16, 2025, we completed a $450,000,000 refinancing of PENN 11, a 1,200,000 square foot Manhattan office building. The five-year interest-only loan matures in August 2030 and has a fixed rate of 6.35%. We paid down by $50,000,000 the prior $500,000,000 loan that bore interest at a rate of SOFR plus 2.06% (swapped to an all-in fixed rate of 6.28%) and was scheduled to mature in October 2025. The swap was terminated at the time of refinancing, and we received $130,000 of proceeds.
Independence Plaza
On June 5, 2025, a joint venture, in which we have a 50.1% interest, completed a $675,000,000 refinancing of Independence Plaza, a 1,328 unit residential complex in the Tribeca submarket of Manhattan. The interest-only non-recourse loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.84% and matures in June 2030. The loan replaces the previous $675,000,000 non-recourse loan that was scheduled to mature in July 2025 and bore interest at 4.25%.
Sustainability Margin Adjustment
In April 2025, we qualified for a sustainability margin adjustment on our unsecured term loan and revolving credit facilities by achieving certain KPI metrics, which reduced our interest rate by 0.05% and 0.04%, respectively.
1535 Broadway (Fifth Avenue and Times Square JV)
On April 14, 2025, the Fifth Avenue and Times Square JV completed a $450,000,000 financing of 1535 Broadway. The interest-only non-recourse loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 6.90% and matures in May 2030. After transaction costs and reserves, $407,000,000 of the net proceeds from the financing were used to partially redeem Vornado's Fifth Avenue and Times Square JV preferred equity.
Senior Unsecured Notes due 2025
We repaid our $450,000,000 3.50% senior unsecured notes on their January 15, 2025 maturity date.
770 Broadway
On May 5, 2025, we completed a master lease with NYU to lease 1,076,000 square feet at 770 Broadway, on an "as is", triple net basis for a 70-year lease term. Under the terms of the master lease, a rental agreement under Section 467 of the Internal Revenue Code, NYU made a prepaid lease payment of $935,000,000, and will also make annual lease payments of $9,281,000 during the lease term. NYU has an option to purchase the leased premises in both 2055 and at the end of the lease term in 2095. NYU assumed the existing office leases at the property.
We used a portion of the prepaid lease payment to repay the $700,000,000 mortgage loan which previously encumbered the property.
We retained the 92,000 square feet retail condominium leased to Wegmans.
In connection with the transaction, we recorded a gain on sales-type lease of $803,248,000.
PENN 1 Ground Rent Reset Determination
On April 22, 2025, an arbitration panel (the "Panel") appointed to determine the ground rent payable by Vornado's subsidiary for the PENN 1 land parcel for the 25-year period beginning June 17, 2023 determined that the annual rent payable will be $15,000,000. On July 21, 2025, the ground lessor filed a motion in New York County Supreme Court to vacate the Panel's ground rent determination. On October 31, 2025, the court granted the ground lessor's motion. We believe the motion is without merit and intend to appeal the court's decision.
Further, litigation is currently pending between the parties in New York County Supreme Court regarding a separate point relating to the matter. The court denied our motion to dismiss that action and we are appealing that decision. The Panel's decision (which is subject to the aforementioned vacatur decision that we plan to appeal) provides that if the fee owner prevails in a final judgment in that litigation, the annual rent for the 25-year term will be $20,220,000, retroactive to June 17, 2023.
We were accruing $26,205,000 per annum of ground rent based on a previous estimate and therefore, in connection with the Panel's determination (which is subject to the ongoing litigation described above), we reversed $17,240,000 of previously accrued rent expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Additionally, commencing in the first quarter of 2025, we are now paying based on the $15,000,000 annual rent.
Leasing Activity
The leasing activity and related statistics in the tables below are based on leases signed during the period and are not intended to coincide with the commencement of rental revenue in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Second generation relet space represents square footage that has not been vacant for more than nine months and tenant improvements and leasing commissions are based on our share of square feet leased during the period.
