Letter from the President
|
Dear Shareholder: We hope you find the annual report for the PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc. informative and useful. The report covers performance for the 12-month period that ended December 31, 2025. Financial markets rallied and the global economy remained resilient throughout the period as inflation continued to cool and recession fears eased. Consumer spending remained a key source of economic growth, and home prices climbed modestly, although the labor market softened compared with the prior year. |
With inflation restrained, the US Federal Reserve (Fed) further reduced the federal funds rate, implementing three 25-basis-point cuts late in the year. Despite concerns over high valuations, investor enthusiasm for AI-related stocks led equities markets to record highs during the period. US equities recorded solid gains, while international markets posted even stronger advances. In the US, real estate was the weakest-performing sector due to its heightened sensitivity to persistently elevated long-term interest rates. Consumer staples, energy, and consumer discretionary stocks also lagged, while communications services and information technology stocks outperformed.
Bond markets faced a mixed environment during the period as fixed income investors navigated shifting expectations for rate cuts and moderating inflation. US and global investment-grade bonds generated modest returns, while emerging market debt benefited from improving risk sentiment. High yield corporate bonds outperformed, supported by resilient economic growth and stable credit fundamentals.
Regarding your investments with PGIM, we believe it is important to maintain a diversified portfolio of funds consistent with your tolerance for risk, time horizon, and financial goals. Your financial advisor can help you create a diversified investment plan that may include funds covering a broad spectrum of asset classes and that reflects your personal investor profile and risk tolerance. However, diversification and asset allocation strategies do not assure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets.
At PGIM Investments, we provide access to active investment strategies across the global markets in the pursuit of consistent outperformance for investors. PGIM is the world's 16th-largest investment manager with more than $1.5 trillion in assets under management. Our scale and investment expertise allow us to deliver a diversified suite of actively managed solutions across a broad spectrum of asset classes and investment styles.
Thank you for choosing our family of funds.
Sincerely,
Stuart S. Parker, President and Principal Executive Officer

Growth of a $1,000,000 Investment
(unaudited)
The graph compares a $1,000,000 investment in the Fund's Class I shares with a similar investment in the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index and the S&P 500 Index by portraying the initial account values at the commencement of operations for Class I shares (November 3, 2022) and the account values at the end of the current fiscal year (December 31, 2025) as measured on a quarterly basis. For purposes of the graph, and unless otherwise indicated, it has been assumed that (a) all recurring fees (including management fees) were deducted and (b) all dividends and distributions were reinvested. The line graph provides information for Class I shares only. As indicated in the table provided earlier, performance for other share classes will vary due to the differing fees and expenses applicable to each share class (as indicated in the following paragraphs). Without waiver of fees and/or expense reimbursements, if any, the returns would have been lower.
Past performance does not predict future performance. Total returns and the ending account values in the graph include changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a hypothetical investment for the periods shown. The Fund's total returns in the table and the graph do not reflect the deduction of income taxes on an individual's investment. Taxes may reduce your actual investment returns on income or gains paid by the Fund or any gains you may realize if you sell your shares.
The returns in the table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or following the redemption of Fund shares.

Strategy and Performance Overview*
(unaudited)
How did the Fund perform?
The PGIM Private Real Estate Fund's Class I shares returned 10.97% in the 12-month reporting period that ended December 31, 2025, outperforming the 7.30% return of the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index (the Index).
What were conditions like in the private real estate market?
| |
The US economy was resilient in 2025. Consensus economic growth expectations were ratcheted down swiftly following the announcement of relatively broad tariff increases on imports in April. Yet current consensus projections are for full-year economic growth in 2025 to match the more optimistic forecasts made when the year started. Overall, consumers and businesses in aggregate weathered the imposition of tariffs better than expected. |
| |
Despite the resilience in economic growth, labor markets softened notably throughout the year, with job growth turning negative during several months. Unemployment remained very low at year-end by historical standards but was rising. |
| |
Amid the slowdown in job creation, the labor market remained strong enough to support household income growth and underpin continued demand in housing segments. Demand in commercial segments such as industrial and retail were weaker early in the year but accelerated in the second half of 2025. |
| |
Property income growth remained positive across most property types, yet growth in market rents was modest. Retail led the way with market rental growth of 2.0%. US industrial rent growth slowed to 1.3% for the year, while apartment rents grew just 0.3%. There was wide variation among geographies, particularly in the apartment and industrial sectors, where certain locations faced more significant supply headwinds. |
| |
Private real estate values reached a bottom in 2024 and modestly increased in 2025. Unlevered total returns reached 4.7% over the past four quarters through the third quarter of 2025. Retail outperformed the other major property types, posting a 7.0% return over the past four quarters through the third quarter of 2025. Office remained the only sector that experienced value losses in 2025, though those losses slowed materially. |
| |
Commercial real estate transaction volumes bottomed in 2024 and were on an upward trajectory from late 2024 and through 2025. MSCI/RCA reported that transaction volume in the trailing four quarters through the third quarter of 2025 was up 24% versus the previous four quarters. Value stabilization/growth was evident in transaction markets, as yields stabilized or even declined in all major property types during 2025. |
| |
Yields for 10-year US Treasury bonds remained relatively rangebound in the 4-4.5% range throughout 2025. After a multiyear period of rapid rate increases, real estate investors gained conviction in long-term yields remaining around these levels, as evidenced by stabilizing or falling capitalization rates in the transaction markets across most property types. |

| |
Financing was readily available for most property types and geographies. Competition among lenders intensified across many lender categories, including private debt funds, insurance companies, banks, and the agencies. |
What worked and didn't work?
| |
Disciplined capital deployment: Strong performance relative to the Index was driven by a disciplined approach to capital allocation. The Fund invested in opportunities that met strict criteria, based on demographic trends and shifts in technology, which supported stable risk-adjusted returns. |
| |
Impact of absence of legacy assets: Performance benefited from a lack of legacy assets-investments purchased during a period of lower-interest rates that may limit returns in a higher rate environment. |
What was the impact of the Fund's distribution policy?
| |
The Fund has a practice of seeking to maintain a relatively stable level of distributions to shareholders. This practice has no impact on the Fund's investment strategy. PGIM Real Estate believes the practice helps maintain the Fund's competitiveness. For the fiscal year ended December 2025, the tax character of dividends paid included an ordinary income distribution of $2,034,009 and a tax return of capital distribution of $8,794,026 or 81.2% of the total distribution of $10,828,035, which had no material impact on the net asset value (NAV) during the reporting period. |
Current outlook
| |
Economic growth forecasts for 2026 continue to move higher, reflecting a resilient US economy despite headwinds from tariffs and a moderating labor market. Expectations are for a sustained pickup in productivity to continue to support overall growth. In PGIM Real Estate's view, this productivity-driven outlook supports rental growth, as it would increase the capacity of tenants to afford higher rents. |
| |
The new supply outlook remains favorable for real estate investors. Supply pipelines fell across almost all property types and geographies throughout 2025. Construction costs have risen significantly in recent years and remain elevated, but commercial real estate capital values have fallen approximately 19% from peak to trough, making development even harder to justify financially than during the last cycle. |
| |
PGIM Real Estate expects transaction volume to trend higher in 2026. Although some geographies and property types will continue to face headwinds from recent construction into 2026, expectations for less supply and better rental growth beyond 2026 are likely to spur greater deal activity this year. |
| |
High homeownership costs mean households will continue to rent for longer, supporting apartment demand. Yet conditions will remain varied by geography in 2026, with major metros along the coasts expected to outperform. Vacancies are high in Sunbelt markets, limiting landlord pricing power and restraining rental growth. Construction is beginning a multi-year decline, which will ultimately lead to a period of |

Strategy and Performance Overview* (continued)
| falling vacancies and positive rental growth. Still, PGIM Real Estate expects markets across the southern US to lag other regions and for rental growth to remain stronger in markets such as San Francisco and New York in 2026. |
| |
Industrial real estate demand ground to a halt in mid-2025 as companies put leasing decisions on pause in reaction to the uncertainty surrounding tariff announcements made in the first half of the year. However, demand growth is returning and accelerated through the balance of the year. E-commerce and supply-chain reconfigurations should drive demand in 2026, and vacancy is expected to peak this year. Tenants are more selective in their leasing decisions than has been the case for the past decade, increasing the importance of building and location quality to property performance. |
| |
Retail vacancy rates are the lowest of the major property types, and demand growth is picking up after a pause in the first half of 2025. Despite some challenges from the labor market, consumer spending is expected to be supportive of retail demand in 2026. PGIM Real Estate expects total returns in the retail sector to outpace the other major property types (apartment, industrial, office) for the year. |
*This strategy and performance overview, which discusses what strategies or holdings (including derivatives, if applicable) affected the Fund's performance, is compiled based on how the Fund performed relative to the Index and is viewed for performance attribution purposes at the aggregate Fund level, which in most instances will not directly correlate to the amounts disclosed in the Statement of Operations which conform to US generally accepted accounting principles.

Organization |
PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company with a limited operating history registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act") that has elected and has qualified, and intends to continue to qualify annually, as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Fund is organized as a Maryland Corporation. The Fund invests primarily in private real estate in the United States. The Fund owns and plans to continue to own all or substantially all of its property investments through its wholly-owned operating partnership. The Fund's property investments in each primary strategy are expected to be structured through privately-owned operating entities or private real estate operating companies which own and operate whole or partial interests in real properties. The Fund directly or through its subsidiaries may also enter into joint ventures with third parties to make investments. The Fund or its subsidiaries may also make investments in partnerships or other co-ownership arrangements or participations arrangements with other investors, including affiliates, to acquire properties.
The financial statements of the Fund are consolidated with its wholly-owned operating partnership and all intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Fund's investments were non-consolidated joint ventures, where the Fund does not maintain primary control.
The investment objectives of the Fund are to provide current income and long-term capital appreciation.
| 2. |
Accounting Policies |
The Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 Financial Services - Investment Companies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The Fund consistently follows such policies in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.
The Fund adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"). Adoption of ASU 2023-07 exclusively impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect the Fund's financial position or performance. The intent of ASU 2023-07 is, through improved segment disclosures, to enable investors to better understand an entity's overall performance. The officers of the Fund, as listed in the Fund's Statement of Additional
PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc. 29
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Information, act as the Fund's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"). The CODM has determined that the Fund has a single operating segment as the CODM monitors the operating results of the Fund as a whole and the Fund's long-term strategic asset allocation is pre-determined in accordance with the terms of its respective prospectus, based on a defined investment strategy which is executed by the Fund's subadviser.
The CODM allocates resources and assesses performance based on the operating results of the Fund, which is consistent with the results presented in the Fund's Schedule of Investments, Statement of Changes in Net Assets, Statement of Cash Flows and Financial Highlights.
Private Real Estate Valuation: Investments in newly acquired properties are initially valued at cost. Generally, each property is then valued by an independent third-party appraisal firm on an annual basis at a minimum which typically includes a market analysis, cost approach, sales comparison approach and direct capitalization method. Upon conclusion of the appraisal, limited scope valuations are performed on a continuous basis. Such fair values are typically determined by utilizing the income approach and discounted cash flow methodology. The income approach is the primary approach used to estimate an income stream for a property and discount this income into a present value at a risk adjusted rate. Yield rates and growth assumptions utilized in this approach are derived from market transactions as well as other financial and industry data. The discount rate and terminal capitalization rate are significant inputs to these valuations. Many factors are also considered in the determination of fair value including, but not limited to, the operating cash flows and financial performance of the properties, property types and geographic locations, the physical condition of the asset, prevailing market capitalization rates, prevailing market discount rates, general economic conditions, and any specific rights or terms associated with the investment.
The Fund has invested in or originated privately sourced debt and preferred equity interests that offer current income secured or backed by high quality real estate in the form of mezzanine debt and preferred equity. The investments typically depend on the generation of cash flows, such as mortgage interest and rental and lease payments. Changes in broad market and economic conditions such as prevailing interest rates, as well as property specific delinquencies, fluctuations in underlying property values, and lease defaults may all impact the valuation of these investments. The Fund will generally determine the initial value based on the acquisition price of such investment if acquired by the Fund or the par value of such investment if originated by the Fund. The fair values of private real estate debt investments are evaluated using a discounted cash flow model by discounting the future contractual cash flows to the present value using a current market interest rate. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Fund's
30
investment in real estate debt include but are not limited to certain credit spreads and the loan-to-value (LTV) ratios.
Investments in non-consolidated joint ventures are stated at fair value. The Fund's ownership interests are valued based on the Fund's ownership interest in the underlying entities and the fair value of the underlying real estate. Any other factors such as ownership percentage, ownership rights, buy/sell agreements, distribution provisions, and capital call obligations are also considered. Upon the disposition of all investments in joint ventures by an investee entity, the Fund will continue to state its equity in the remaining net assets of the investee entity during the wind down period, if any, that occurs prior to the dissolution of the investee entity.
Securities and Other Assets Valuation: The Fund holds securities and other assets and liabilities that are fair valued as of the close of each day (generally, 4:00 PM Eastern time) the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open for trading. As described in further detail below, the Fund's investments are valued daily based on a number of factors, such as the type of investment. The Fund's Board of Directors (the "Board") has adopted valuation procedures for security valuation under which fair valuation responsibilities have been delegated to PGIM Investments LLC ("PGIM Investments" or the "Manager") as the "Valuation Designee," as defined by Rule 2a-5(b) under the 1940 Act, to perform the fair value determination. Pursuant to the Board's delegation, the Valuation Designee has established a Valuation Committee responsible for supervising the fair valuation of portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities. The valuation procedures permit the Fund to utilize independent valuation agent services. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
Various inputs determine how the Fund's investments are valued, all of which are categorized according to the three broad levels (Level 1, 2, or 3) detailed in the Schedule of Investments and referred to herein as the "fair value hierarchy" in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820 - Fair Value Measurement. In the event that unobservable inputs are used when determining such valuations, the securities will be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Altering one or more unobservable inputs may result in a significant change to a Level 3 security's fair value measurement. The Fund's real property investments' fair valuations are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
Investments in open-end funds (other than ETFs) are valued at their net asset values as of the close of the NYSE on the date of valuation. These securities are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy since they may be purchased or sold at their net asset values on the date of valuation.
Investment Transactions and Net Investment Income: Investment transactions are recorded on any of the following: the trade date, the date the Fund obtains a right to the investment, the date the Fund is eligible to collect proceeds from the sale, or the date the Fund incurs an obligation to the price of the investment purchased. Rental income, including tenant
PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc. 31
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
reimbursements and recovery charges, earned from real estate investments is recognized on an accrual basis in accordance with the terms of the underlying lease agreement. The cost of investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method. To the extent any issuer defaults or a credit event occurs that impacts the issuer, the Fund may halt any additional interest income accruals and consider the realizability of interest accrued up to the date of default or credit event. Origination fees received in connection with mezzanine debt investments are deferred and recognized as income over the life of the respective investment. Operating expenses are recorded on an accrual basis, which may require the use of certain estimates by management that may differ from actual. Financing costs related to the Fund's credit agreements are recorded as a deferred charge and amortized through the maturity date of the respective credit agreement. Net investment income or loss (other than class specific expenses and waivers, which are allocated as noted below) and unrealized and realized gains (losses) are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of adjusted net assets of each class at the beginning of the day. Class specific expenses and waivers, where applicable, are charged to the respective share classes. Such class specific expenses and waivers may include distribution fees, shareholder servicing fees, transfer agent's fees and expenses, and fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, as applicable.
Taxes: The Fund has elected and has qualified, and intends to continue to qualify annually, as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Code. The Fund generally will be permitted to deduct dividends paid to the holders of common stock ("Common Shareholders") and holders of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock ("Preferred Shareholders" and, together with Common Shareholders, the "shareholders") and, as a result, generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on that portion of the Fund's ordinary income and net capital gain that the Fund annually distributes to its shareholders, as long as the Fund meets certain minimum distribution requirements.
Dividends and Distributions: The Fund intends to make distributions to shareholders on a regular basis as necessary to avoid material U.S. federal income tax, and to comply with the REIT distributions requirements. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and which may differ from GAAP, are recorded on the ex-date. Permanent book/tax differences relating to income and gain (loss) are reclassified between total distributable earnings (loss) and paid-in capital in excess of par, as appropriate. The chart below sets forth the expected frequency of dividend and capital gains distributions to shareholders. Various factors may impact the frequency of dividend distributions to shareholders, including but not limited to adverse market conditions or portfolio holding-specific events. In conjunction with its election and
32
qualification as a REIT, the Fund makes distributions on a regular basis as necessary to avoid material U.S. federal income tax.

Under certain circumstances, the Fund may make more than one distribution of short-term and/or long-term capital gains during a fiscal year. |
Distributions to Preferred Shareholders, if any, are accrued daily and paid semi-annually and are determined as described in Note 8. For tax purposes, the payments made to Preferred Shareholders are treated as dividends or distributions.
Estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
| 3. |
Agreements |
The Fund has entered into a management agreement (the "Management Agreement") with the Manager pursuant to which the Manager has responsibility for all investment advisory services, including supervision of the subadviser's performance of such services, and for rendering administrative services.
The Manager has entered into a subadvisory agreement (the "Subadvisory Agreement") with PGIM, Inc. (the "Subadviser" or "PGIM") primarily through PGIM Real Estate, the real estate investment advisory business unit within PGIM. The Manager pays for the services of the Subadviser. The Subadviser will receive an annual subadvisory fee, payable monthly, from the Manager in an amount equal to 0.60% of the average daily value of the Fund's net assets. No subadvisory fees will be paid by the Fund directly to the Subadviser. In addition, in consideration for the services provided pursuant to the Subadvisory Agreement, the Manager will pay the Subadviser a fee in the amount of 60% of the Incentive Fee (the "Incentive Fee") received by the Manager from the Fund pursuant to the Management Agreement. The Subadviser previously contractually agreed to waive this subadvisory fee and Incentive Fee through June 30, 2025.
Fees payable under the Management Agreement are computed daily and paid monthly. For the reporting period ended December 31, 2025, the contractual and effective management fee rates were as follows:
| Contractual Management Rate |
Effective Management Fee, before any waivers and/or expense reimbursements |
|
| 1.00% of average daily net assets | 1.00% | |
PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc. 33
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
The Manager previously contractually agreed to waive its management fee through June 30, 2025 (the "Waiver Period"). The Manager was not eligible to receive any Management Fee until the expiration of the Waiver Period.
Pursuant to the Management Agreement, an Incentive Fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears in an amount equal to 10.00% of the Fund's Portfolio Operating Income for the immediately preceding quarter. No incentive fee on Portfolio Operating Income will be payable in any calendar quarter in which the Fund did not achieve a 5% total return over the trailing 12-month period. The Manager previously contractually agreed to waive its incentive fee until June 30, 2025. The Manager was not eligible to receive any Incentive Fee until the expiration of the Waiver Period.
The Manager may not recoup the waived Management Fee and Incentive Fee.
"Portfolio Operating Income" means (1) the Fund's share of Net Operating Income from the Fund's real estate equity investments; plus (2) the Fund's net investment income (or loss) (i.e., net of fund level expenses) from debt, preferred equity investments and traded real estate-related securities; minus (3) the Fund's expenses (excluding the Incentive Fee and distribution and servicing fees).
"Net Operating Income" means operating revenue net of operating expenses (inclusive of interest on investment level debt) for the Fund's operating entities that invest in real estate and excludes (i) gains or losses from sales of depreciable real property, (ii) impairment write-downs on depreciable real property, (iii) real estate-related depreciation and amortization for each real estate operating venture and (iv) adjustments for recognizing straight line rent.
"Total Return" for any 12-month period shall equal the sum of: (i) all distributions accrued or paid (without duplication) on the Fund's common stock ("Common Stock") (as defined below) since the beginning of the applicable 12-month period plus (ii) the change in aggregate NAV of such Common Stock since the beginning of the year, before giving effect to (x) changes resulting solely from the proceeds of issuances of Common Stock, (y) any allocation/accrual to the performance participation interest and (z) applicable distribution and servicing fee expenses.
The Manager has agreed to waive its fees and/or reimburse expenses of the Fund so that the Fund's Specified Expenses will not exceed 0.50% of net assets (annualized) through August 15, 2028. The Fund has agreed to repay these amounts, when and if requested by the Manager, but only if and to the extent that Specified Expenses are less than 0.50% of net assets (annualized) (or, if a lower expense limit is then in effect, such lower limit) within
34
three years. As of December 31, 2025, under the Expense Limitation and Reimbursement Agreement, the amounts eligible for potential recoupment with respective expiration dates are as follows:

The Fund has a distribution agreement with Prudential Investment Management Services LLC ("PIMS"), which acts as the distributor of the Class I, Class D, Class S, and Class T shares of the Fund. The Fund compensates PIMS for distributing and servicing the Fund's Class D, Class S, and Class T shares pursuant to the plans of distribution (the "Distribution Plans"), regardless of expenses actually incurred by PIMS.
Pursuant to the Distribution Plans, the Fund compensates PIMS for distribution and servicing related activities at an annual rate based on average daily net assets per class. The distribution and servicing fees are accrued daily and payable monthly.
The Fund's annual gross and net distribution and servicing rates, where applicable, are as follows:
| Class | Gross Distribution and Servicing Fee | Net Distribution and Servicing Fee | ||||||
| I | N/A% | N/A% | ||||||
| D | 0.25 | 0.25 | ||||||
| S | 0.85 | 0.85 | ||||||
| T | 0.85 | 0.85 | ||||||
For the year ended December 31, 2025, PIMS did not receive any front-end sales charges resulting from sales of Class T shares, contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSC") imposed upon redemptions by certain shareholders, or early redemption fees resulting from redemptions of certain share classes.
PGIM Investments, PGIM Inc., and PIMS are indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Prudential Financial, Inc. ("Prudential").

Distributions and Tax Information |
The timing and characterization of certain income, capital gains, and return of capital distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. As a result, the net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to paid-in capital, accumulated net investment income (loss) or accumulated net realized gain (loss), as appropriate, in the period in which the differences arise.
GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. During the current period, the Fund did not have any reclassifications.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the tax character of dividends paid as reflected in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets were as follows:

| 10. |
Repurchases |
The Fund intends, but is not obligated, to conduct quarterly tender offers (also referred to as "repurchases") for up to 5.0% of the aggregate NAV of its outstanding Common Stock at the applicable NAV per share as of the applicable valuation date, in the sole discretion of the Board. In the event a tender offer is oversubscribed, the Fund may accept for purchase additional outstanding shares of Common Stock representing up to 2.0% of the aggregate NAV of its outstanding Common Stock, without amending or extending the tender offer.
A 2.0% early redemption fee payable to the Fund will be charged with respect to the repurchase of a shareholder's Common Stock at any time prior to the day immediately preceding the one-year anniversary of a shareholder's purchase of the Common Stock (on a "first in-first out" basis). There were no repurchases for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Borrowings |
On September 18, 2024, the Fund entered into a Revolving Facility (the "Credit Agreement") with Standard Chartered Bank that allows the Fund to borrow up to an aggregate amount of $100,000,000, with increases in commitments up to an agreement amount of $150,000,000 with subsequent credit approval, all subject to availability under
PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc. 41
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
the borrowing base and restrictions imposed on borrowings under the 1940 Act. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement and included within the stated commitment amounts, the Fund is also able to draw letters of credit up to an aggregate amount of $15,000,000. The initial maturity date of the Credit Agreement is September 18, 2026, with an option to extend the maturity date under certain circumstances. The Fund pays a commitment fee on the unused portion of the loan commitment amount at an annual rate of 0.20%. The interest on the loan and any letters of credit issued is calculated at variable rates based on 1 month Term SOFR, plus any applicable margin. The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants that, among other things, may limit the Fund's ability to pay distributions in certain circumstances and engage in certain transactions, including mergers and consolidations. As of December 31, 2025, the Fund was in compliance with all of the Credit Agreement's covenants. As of December 31, 2025, the Fund did not have any borrowings outstanding in connection with the Credit Agreement. The Fund utilized the credit facility during the year ended December 31, 2025. Below is a summary of the credit facility usage during the reporting period and the balance outstanding as of December 31, 2025.

Risks of Investing in the Fund |
The Fund's risks include, but are not limited to, some or all of the risks discussed below. For further information on the Fund's risks, please refer to the Fund's Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.
Limited History of Operations: The Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company with limited history of operations or public trading and is subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties associated with any new business. As a result, prospective investors have limited track record or history on which to base their investment decision.
Real Estate Investment Risk: The Fund's investments are subject to the risks typically associated with real estate, including but not limited to:
| ● |
local, state, national or international economic conditions, including market disruptions caused by regional concerns, political upheaval, and military conflicts, sovereign debt crises and other factors; |
| ● |
lack of liquidity inherent in the nature of the asset; |
| ● |
reliance on tenants/operators/managers to operate their businesses in a sufficient manner and in compliance with their contractual arrangements with the Fund; |
| ● |
ability and cost to replace a tenant/operator/manager upon default; |
| ● |
property management decisions; |
44
| ● |
property location and conditions; |
| ● |
property operating costs, including insurance premiums, real estate taxes and maintenance costs; |
| ● |
competition from comparable properties; |
| ● |
the occupancy rate of, and the rental rates charged at, the properties; |
| ● |
leasing market activity; |
| ● |
the ability to collect on a timely basis all rent; |
| ● |
the effects of any bankruptcies or insolvencies; |
| ● |
changes in interest rates and in the availability, cost and terms of mortgage financing; |
| ● |
changes in governmental rules, regulations and fiscal policies; |
| ● |
cost of compliance with applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations; |
| ● |
acts of nature, including earthquakes, hurricanes and other natural disasters; |
| ● |
climate change and regulations intended to control its impact; |
| ● |
the potential for uninsured or underinsured property losses; |
| ● |
other factors beyond the Fund's control. |
Commercial Real Estate Industry Risk: The Fund's business and operations are dependent on the commercial real estate industry generally, which in turn is dependent upon broad economic conditions. Challenging economic and financial market conditions may cause the Fund to experience an increase in the number of commercial real estate investments that result in losses, including delinquencies, non-performing assets and a decrease in the value of the property or, in the case of traded real estate-related securities, collateral which secures its investments, all of which could adversely affect the Fund's results of operations.
Illiquid Investment Risk: Many of the Fund's investments will be illiquid, including the Fund's real estate investments. A variety of factors could make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of any of its illiquid assets on acceptable terms even if a disposition is in the best interests of the Fund's shareholders. The Fund may not be able to readily dispose of such securities at prices that approximate those at which the Fund could sell the securities if they were more widely traded and, as a result of that illiquidity, the Fund may have to sell such securities at a loss or sell other investments or engage in borrowing transactions if necessary
PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc. 45
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
to raise cash to meet its obligations. Limited liquidity can also affect the market price of securities, thereby adversely affecting the Fund's NAV and ability to make dividend distributions.
Inflation Risk: Globally, inflation and rapid fluctuations in inflation rates have in the past had negative effects on economies and financial markets, particularly in emerging economies, and may do so in the future. Wages and prices of inputs increase during periods of inflation, which can negatively impact returns on investments. In an attempt to stabilize inflation, governments may impose wage and price controls, or otherwise intervene in the economy. Governmental efforts to curb inflation often have negative effects on levels of economic activity.
In the United States, inflation has accelerated in recent years as a result of global supply chain disruptions, a rise in energy prices,strong consumer spending, and other factors. Inflationary pressures have increased the costs of labor, energy, and raw materials, and have adversely affected consumer spending, economic growth, and the operations of companies in the U.S. and globally, and have resulted in a tightening of monetary policy by the U.S. Federal Reserve. Inflation may continue in the near to medium-term, particularly in the U.S., with the possibility that monetary policy may tighten further in response. Inflation could become a serious problem in the future and have an adverse impact on the Fund's returns.
Continued inflation could have an adverse impact on the Fund's borrowings and general and administrative expenses of the Fund, as these costs could increase at a rate higher than the Fund's rental and other revenue. Inflation could also have an adverse effect on consumer spending, which could impact the Fund's potential tenants' revenues and, in turn, their ability to pay rent. In addition, leases that have a long-term duration or that include renewal options that specify a maximum rate increase may result in below-market lease rates over time, if the Fund does not accurately estimate inflation or market lease rates. Any provisions of the Fund's leases designed to mitigate the risk of inflation and unexpected increases in market lease rates, such as periodic rental increases, may not adequately protect the Fund from the impact of inflation or unexpected increases in market lease rates. If subject to below-market lease rates on a significant number of properties pursuant to long-term leases, and operating and other expenses are increasing faster than anticipated, then the Fund's business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and ability to satisfy debt service obligations or pay distributions on Common Shares could be materially adversely affected.
Liquidity Risk: The Fund is designed primarily for long-term investors and an investment in the Fund's Common Stock should be considered illiquid. The Common Stock is not currently listed for trading on any securities exchange. There is currently no public market for the Common Stock and none is expected to develop. Although the Fund may offer to
46
repurchase Common Stock from shareholders, no assurance can be given that these repurchases will occur as scheduled or at all.
Mezzanine Loans Risk: The Fund may invest in mezzanine loans that take the form of subordinated loans secured by a pledge of the ownership interests of either the entity owning the real property or the entity that owns the interest in the entity owning the real property. These types of investments involve a higher degree of risk than first mortgage loans secured by income producing real property because the investment may become unsecured as a result of foreclosure by the senior lender. As a result, the Fund may not recover some or all of its investment.
Non-Diversification Risk: The Fund is "non-diversified," which means that the Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in the securities of a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund. Focusing investments in a small number of issuers increases risk. A fund that invests in a relatively smaller number of issuers is more susceptible to risks associated with a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence than a diversified fund might be. Some of those issuers also may present substantial credit or other risks. Similarly, the Fund may be subject to increased economic, business or political risk to the extent that it invests a substantial portion of its assets in a particular currency, in a group of related industries, in a particular issuer, in the bonds of similar projects or in a narrowly defined geographic area outside the United States.
Real Estate Joint Venture Risk: The Fund may enter into real estate joint ventures with third parties to make investments. The Fund may also make investments in partnerships or other co-ownership arrangements or participations. Such investments may involve risks not otherwise present with other methods of investment, including, for instance, the following risks and conflicts of interest:
| ● |
the real estate joint venture partner in an investment could become insolvent or bankrupt; |
| ● |
the joint venture partner will typically have day-to-day control over the investment, and the Fund's rights regarding certain major decisions affecting the ownership of the real estate joint venture and the joint venture property, such as the sale of the property or the making of additional capital contributions for the benefit of the property, will typically be limited. These factors may prevent the Fund from taking actions that are opposed by its real estate joint venture partner; under certain real estate joint venture arrangements, neither party may have the power to unilaterally direct certain activities of the venture and, under certain circumstances, an impasse could result regarding cash distributions, reserves, or a proposed sale or refinancing of the investment, and this impasse could have an adverse impact on the real estate joint venture, which could adversely impact the operations and profitability of the real estate joint venture and/or the amount and timing of distributions the Fund receives from the real estate joint venture; |
PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc. 47
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
| ● |
the real estate joint venture partner may at any time have economic or business interests or goals that are or that become in conflict with the Fund's business interests or goals, including, for instance, the operation of the properties; |
| ● |
the real estate joint venture partner may be structured differently than the Fund for tax purposes and this could create conflicts of interest; |
| ● |
the Fund will typically rely upon its real estate joint venture partner to manage the day-to day operations of the real estate joint venture and underlying assets, as well as to prepare financial information for the real estate joint venture and any failure to perform these obligations appropriately may have a negative impact on the Fund's performance and results of operations; |
| ● |
the real estate joint venture partner may experience a change of control, which could result in new management of the real estate joint venture partner with less experience or conflicting interests to the Fund and be disruptive to the Fund's business; |
| ● |
the real estate joint venture partner may be in a position to take action contrary to the Fund's instructions or requests or contrary to the Fund's policies or objectives; |
| ● |
the terms of the real estate joint ventures could restrict the Fund's ability to sell or transfer its interest to a third party when it desires on advantageous terms, which could result in reduced liquidity; |
| ● |
the Fund or its real estate joint venture partner may have the right to cause the Fund to sell its interest, or acquire its partner's interest, at a time when the Fund otherwise would not have initiated such a transaction; and |
| ● |
the real estate joint venture partner may not have sufficient personnel or appropriate levels of expertise to adequately support the Fund's initiatives. |
In addition, disputes between the Fund and its real estate joint venture partners may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase the Fund's expenses and prevent the Fund's officers and directors from focusing their time and efforts on the Fund's business. Any of the above risks and conflicts of interest might subject the Fund to liabilities and thus reduce its returns on the investment with that real estate joint venture partner.
Valuation Risk: The value of certain of the Fund's investments will be difficult to determine and the valuation determinations made by the Manager, Subadviser, and Independent Valuation Advisor with respect to such investments will likely vary from the amounts the Fund would receive upon sale or disposition of such investments. It is possible that the fair
48
value determined for an investment may differ materially from the value that could be realized upon the sale of the investment. Within the parameters of the Fund's valuation policies and procedures, the valuation methodologies used to value the Fund's assets will involve subjective judgments and projections and that ultimately may not materialize. Ultimate realization of the value of an asset depends to a great extent on economic, market and other conditions beyond the Fund's control and the control of the Manager and the Fund's Independent Valuation Advisor and third-party appraisers. Rapidly changing market conditions or material events may not be immediately reflected in the Fund's daily NAV. The resulting potential disparity in the Fund's NAV may inure to the benefit of shareholders whose shares are repurchased or new purchasers of the Fund's Common Stock, depending on whether the Fund's published NAV per share for such class is overstated or understated.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement and Regulatory Developments |
During the reporting period, the Fund adopted Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). The amendments enhance income tax disclosures by requiring greater disclosure of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The Fund did not pay a significant amount of foreign or U.S. federal, state or local income taxes and therefore did not include any additional disclosures in these financial statements.
| 15. |
Subsequent Events |
The Fund's management evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of the financial statements. There have been no subsequent events that occurred during such period that would require disclosure in, or would be required to be recognized in, the financial statements as of December 31, 2025 except as discussed below.
On January 21, 2026, the Fund declared monthly distributions of $0.11310 per share for Class I, $0.10732 per share for Class D, and $0.09364 per share for Class S and Class T, payable on January 23, 2026, to Common Shareholders of record on January 22, 2026. The ex-date is January 23, 2026.
On February 5, 2026, the Board approved the Fund's undertaking of certain actions necessary for the Fund to operate as an "interval fund" in reliance on Rule 23c-3 under the 1940 Act, including, but not limited to, (i) the adoption of a fundamental policy to make quarterly repurchase offers pursuant to Rule 23c-3(b)(2)(i) under the 1940 Act, and (ii) authorization to prepare and file a post-effective amendment to the Fund's registration statement on Form N-2 (the "Amendment") to include, among other things, related strategy changes and disclosure related to the Fund's operation as an interval fund. Once the Amendment becomes effective, the Fund will begin to operate as an interval fund. In addition, the Board approved (i) changes to the Fund's 80% investment policy, and (ii) changing the Fund's name to PGIM Real Estate Fund Inc.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors of PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc. and Shareholders of PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc.
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedule of investments, of PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc. and its subsidiary (the "Fund") as of December 31, 2025, the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025, the consolidated statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, including the related notes, and the consolidated financial highlights for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 and for the period November 3, 2022 (commencement of operations) through December 31, 2022 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2025, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025 and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 and for the period November 3, 2022 (commencement of operations) through December 31, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2025 by correspondence with the transfer agent and other auditing procedures for real estate held as of December 31, 2025. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Funds from operations and adjusted funds from operations (unaudited)
Year Ended December 31, 2025
PGIM believes funds from operations ("FFO") is a meaningful supplemental non-GAAP operating metric. FFO is a standard REIT industry metric defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). FFO as presented below is calculated as a net increase in net assets resulting from operations (computed in accordance with "GAAP"), excluding (i) gain or losses from sales of investments and (ii) the change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments.
PGIM also believes that adjusted FFO ("AFFO") is a meaningful non-GAAP supplemental disclosure of its operating results. AFFO further adjusts FFO in order for PGIM's operating results to reflect the specific characteristics of its business by adjusting for items it believes are not related to its core operations. The Fund's adjustments to FFO to arrive at AFFO include removing the impact of certain non-cash items from Fund operating results.
FFO and AFFO should not be considered more relevant or accurate than the GAAP methodology in evaluating PGIM's operating performance. In addition, FFO and AFFO should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) as indications of the Fund's performance or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities as indications of liquidity, but rather should be reviewed in conjunction with these and other GAAP measurements. Further, FFO and AFFO are not intended to be used as liquidity measures indicative of cash flow available to fund PGIM's cash needs, including its ability to make distributions to stockholders.

DISTRIBUTION REINVESTMENT PLAN
OF
PGIM PRIVATE REAL ESTATE FUND, INC.
PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Fund"), hereby adopts the following plan (the "Plan") with respect to income dividends or capital gains or other distributions (each, a "Distribution" and collectively, "Distributions"), declared by its Board of Directors on shares of its common stock (the "Common Stock"):
1. Unless a stockholder specifically elects to receive cash as set forth below, all Distributions hereafter declared by the Board of Directors shall be payable in shares of the Common Stock of the Fund, and no action shall be required on such stockholder's part to receive a Distribution in stock.
2. Such Distributions shall be payable on such date or dates as may be fixed from time to time by the Board of Directors to stockholders of record at the close of business on the record date(s) established by the Board of Directors for the Distribution involved.
3. Prudential Mutual Fund Services LLC, the plan administrator (the "Plan Administrator"), will set up an account for the Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan for each stockholder who has not elected to receive Distributions in cash (each a "Participant"). The Plan Administrator may hold each Participant's shares, together with the shares of other Participants, in non-certificated form in the Plan Administrator's name or that of its nominee. In the case of stockholders such as banks, brokers or nominees that hold the Common Stock of the Fund for others who are the beneficial owners, the Plan Administrator will administer the Plan on the basis of the number of Common Stock certified by the record stockholders as representing the total amount registered in such stockholder's name and held for the account of Participants.
4. When the Fund declares a Distribution, the Plan Administrator, on the stockholder's behalf, will receive additional authorized Common Stock from the Fund. The number of shares to be received when Distributions are reinvested will be determined by dividing the amount of the Distribution by the Fund's net asset value per share. There will be no sales load charged on Common Stock issued to a stockholder under the Plan. All Common Stock purchased under the Plan will be held in the name of each Participant.
5. The Fund expects to issue Common Stock pursuant to the Plan, immediately following each Distribution payment date and the Plan Administrator will make every reasonable effort to reinvest all Distributions on the day the Distribution is paid (except where necessary to comply with applicable securities laws) by the Fund. If, for any reason beyond
PGIM Private Real Estate Fund, Inc. 55
Other Information (continued)
the control of the Plan Administrator, reinvestment of the Distributions cannot be completed within 30 days after the applicable Distribution payment date, funds held by the Plan Administrator on behalf of a Participant will be distributed to that Participant.
6. A stockholder may, however, elect to receive Distributions in cash. To exercise this option, such stockholder must notify the Plan Administrator, in writing so that such notice is received by the Plan Administrator three (3) days prior to the distribution date fixed by the Board of Directors for the Distribution involved.
7. The Plan Administrator will confirm to each Participant each acquisition made pursuant to the Plan as soon as practicable. Each Participant may from time to time have an undivided fractional interest (computed to three decimal places) in a share of Common Stock of the Fund. Distributions on fractional shares will be credited to each Participant's account. In the event of termination of a Participant's account under the Plan, the Plan Administrator will adjust for any such undivided fractional interest in cash at the net asset value of the Fund's shares at the time of termination.
8. There will be no direct expenses to Participants for the administration of the Plan. There is no direct service charge to Participants with regard to purchases under the Plan; however, the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the Participants. All fees associated with the Plan will be paid by the Fund.
9. Shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Plan will have the same voting rights as the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Fund's continuous offering.
10. Each Participant may terminate the Participant's account under the Plan by accessing the 'Account Maintenance Form' via the Plan Administrator's website at www.pgim.com/ investments, and sending it to the Plan Administrator at PGIM Investments PO Box 219929, Kansas City, MO 64121-9929 or by calling the Plan Administrator at (844) 753-6354. Such termination will be effective immediately if the Participant's notice is received by the Plan Administrator prior to any distribution record date. Upon any withdrawal or termination, the Plan Administrator will cause to be delivered to each terminating Participant a statement of holdings for the appropriate number of the Fund's whole book-entry Common Stock and a check for the cash adjustment of any fractional share at the market value of the Fund's Common Stock as of the close of business on the date the termination is effective less any applicable fees. In the event a Participant's notice of termination is on or after a record date (but before payment date) for an account whose dividends are reinvested, the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may either distribute such dividends in cash or reinvest them in Common Stock on behalf of the terminating Participant. In the event reinvestment is made, the Plan Administrator will process the termination as soon as practicable, but in no event later than five business days after the
56
reinvestment is completed. The Plan may be terminated by the Fund upon notice in writing mailed to each Participant at least 30 days prior to any record date for the payment of any dividend or distribution by the Fund.
11. These terms and conditions may be amended or supplemented by the Fund at any time but, except when necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable law or the rules or policies of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other regulatory authority, only by mailing to each Participant appropriate written notice at least 30 days prior to the effective date thereof. The amendment or supplement shall be deemed to be accepted by each Participant unless, prior to the effective date thereof, the Plan Administrator receives written notice of the termination of the Participant's account under the Plan. Any such amendment may include an appointment by the Plan Administrator in its place and stead of a successor agent under these terms and conditions, with full power and authority to perform all or any of the acts to be performed by the Plan Administrator under these terms and conditions. Upon any such appointment of any agent for the purpose of receiving Distributions, the Fund will be authorized to pay to such successor agent, for each Participant's account, all dividends and distributions payable on shares of the Fund held in the Participant's name or under the Plan for retention or application by such successor agent as provided in these terms and conditions.
12. The Plan Administrator will at all times act in good faith and use its best efforts within reasonable limits to ensure its full and timely performance of all services to be performed by it under this Plan and to comply with applicable law, but assumes no responsibility and shall not be liable for loss or damage due to errors unless such error is caused by the Plan Administrator's negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct or that of its employees or agents.
13. The automatic reinvestment of dividends does not relieve Participants of any taxes which may be payable on dividends. Participants will receive tax information annually for their personal records and to help them prepare their federal income tax return. Specific cost basis information will also be included on a Participant's statement in accordance with applicable law.
14. These terms and conditions of the Plan shall be governed by applicable federal securities laws and the laws of the State of New York.

Report of Independent Auditors
To the Management of PPREF/Post Ardent Owner, LLC
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of PPREF/Post Ardent Owner, LLC (the "Company"), which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, and the related statements of operations, of changes in members' equity and of cash flows for the period from June 17, 2025 ("commencement of operations") to December 31, 2025, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements").
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from June 17, 2025 ("commencement of operations") to December 31, 2025 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the financial statements are available to be issued.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with US GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
| www.pwc.com/us |
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP 300 Madison Avenue New York, New York 10017 (646) 471 3000 |
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with US GAAS, we:
| |
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. |
| |
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. |
| |
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. |
| |
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. |
| |
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. |
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

(A DELAWARE LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM JUNE 17, 2025 (COMMENCEMENT OF OPERATIONS) TO
DECEMBER 31, 2025
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
PPREF/Post Ardent Owner, LLC (the "Company") was formed on April 15, 2025 under the laws of the state of Delaware, for the purpose of acquiring, managing, and operating a 570-unit apartment community located in Mill Creek, Washington (the "Property"), commonly known as the Ardent at Mill Creek. There were no transactions from the date of formation through the date of commencement of operations.
On June 17, 2025, the Company acquired the Property for $163,750,000, excluding acquisition costs and excise tax credits. The acquisition included the land and the related buildings and improvements. In connection with the acquisition and as part of a tax exemption structure, the Company deeded the land to the Spokane Indian Housing Authority ("Spokane"), the Tribally Designated Housing Entity of the Spokane Tribe of the Spokane Reservation, a federally recognized Indian tribe, making the Property fully exempt from property taxes.
Simultaneously, the Company, as a tenant, executed a 99-year ground lease agreement ("Ground Lease") with Spokane, as landlord, for the development and operation of the Property. The Company has two members, the Investor Member ("PGIM") who is a 93% capital owner and the Operating Member ("Post Ardent"), who is a 7% capital owner as described in the Limited Liability Company agreement ("operating agreement"). All capitalized terms are as defined in the operating agreement.
CONTRIBUTION
The members are required to fund "Initial Capital Contributions" as defined in operating agreement for the initial acquisition of the property and, to the extent permanent financing is not obtained in an amount sufficient to fully repay the acquisition loan, to contribute capital to repay the shortfall between the acquisition loan payoff amount and the permanent financial amount. Since the inception of Company, the members have made total capital contributions of $55,575,466.
In the event the Investor Member determines additional capital contributions are necessary, the members are required to fund their contributions by the date specified in the funding notice. If any member fails to make the contribution, then the other member may 1) withdraw their contribution; 2) loan the Company the non-contributing member's share of the contribution with the option to treat the contributing member's contribution as a loan as well ("Special Loan"); or 3) fund the non-contributing member's capital contribution and dilute the failing member's ownership in accordance with the operating agreement ("Priority Contribution").

ALLOCATION OF NET INCOME AND LOSS
Income and losses are generally allocated based on the Target Capital Accounts of the Members.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").
PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION
The Company allocated the purchase price to acquired tangible assets including building, building improvements and the leasehold improvements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations. Upon the acquisition of the Property, the Company assessed whether the transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or an asset acquisition. Acquisitions of integrated sets of assets and activities that do not meet the definition of a business are accounted for as asset acquisitions. The Company's acquisition of real estate generally will not meet the definition of a business because substantially all of the fair value is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets and therefore, was accounted for as an asset acquisition using the relative fair value basis.

FOR THE PERIOD FROM JUNE 17, 2025 (COMMENCEMENT OF OPERATIONS) TO
DECEMBER 31, 2025
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION (CONTINUED)
The allocation of the purchase price to building, building improvement and leasehold improvement is based upon management's determination of fair value using the sales comparison approach and income approaches. The value, if any, of intangibles, such as in-place leases and above-market and below-market leases, was immaterial due to the short-term nature of the leases. Accordingly, no value is allocated to the intangible lease assets or liabilities in the accompanying financial statements.
On June 17, 2025, the Company acquired the Property for $159.740 million. The following table summarized the Company's purchase price allocated (inclusive of capitalized acquisition costs):
|
Building improvements |
$ | 9,180,485 | ||
|
Leasehold improvements |
52,328,763 | |||
|
Buildings |
98,231,186 | |||
|
Net assets acquired |
$ | 159,740,434 | ||
Differing assumptions and methods could have resulted in different estimates of fair values, and thus, a different purchase price allocation and corresponding increase or decrease in depreciation and amortization expense.
REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT
Real estate investment is comprised of buildings, building improvements, and leasehold improvements carried at cost and net of accumulated depreciation. Property maintenance and repairs are expensed to operations as incurred and significant renovations and enhancements that improve and/or extend the useful life of the real estate assets are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful life.
Depreciation of the building is computed using the straight-line method over the useful life of 40 years. Building improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over 15 years. The leasehold improvement represents the Company's 99-year leasehold interest in the land subject to the ground lease (see Note 4) and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term of 99 years.

FOR THE PERIOD FROM JUNE 17, 2025 (COMMENCEMENT OF OPERATIONS) TO
DECEMBER 31, 2025
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT (CONTINUED)
Management evaluates for impairment of the real estate investment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. Impairment is recognized when the expected undiscounted cash flows for the real estate investment are less than its carrying amount, at which time the real estate investment is written down to fair value. There were no impairments recognized during the period from June 17, 2025 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2025.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents consist of all highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. The Company may maintain cash balances that exceed federally insured limits but does not believe that this results in any significant credit risk.
TENANTS ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The Company periodically evaluates the collectability of amounts due from tenants and elected an accounting policy to record a general reserve under ASC 326, Current Expected Credit Losses, for tenant receivables that are not probable of collection and to record the reserve as bad debt expense. Tenant receivables are periodically evaluated for collectability based on the tenant's payment history, their current status, and their financial condition. Subsequently, tenant receivables balances that are determined to be troubled are removed from the general reserve and written off with an adjustment to rental revenue net of the general reserve attributable to the lease. At December 31, 2025, an allowance of $33,376 has been recorded. The Company has written off $166,626 as bad debt expense for the period from June 17, 2025 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2025.
DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS
The Company presents deferred financing costs as a reduction of the mortgage payable, with amortization of deferred financing costs included as a component of interest expense.
Deferred financing costs are amortized over the life of the related loan (5 years) using the effective interest method. Amortization of deferred financing costs for the period from June 17, 2025 (commencement of operations) through December 31, 2025 was $47,695 which is included in interest expense on the accompanying statement of operations.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 842, Leases, ratably over time. All of the Company's leases with tenants are classified as operating leases. When collection of substantially all lease payments during the lease term is considered probable, the lease qualifies for accrual accounting. Base rents and rent abatements from rental operations are recognized on a monthly straight-line basis over the lease term regardless of when payments are due. The lease agreements generally contain a provision for reimbursements of the tenants' share of real estate taxes and certain common area maintenance costs. Revenue from reimbursements is generally billed and recognized in the period the related expenses are incurred. Leases that contain variable lease payments such as percentage rent based on tenant gross sales are classified as operating leases and revenues are recognized at the end of the lease year or other period in which the tenants' base sales volume has been reached.
The Company has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components where certain conditions are met.
Non-lease revenue is recognized under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires a control-based evaluation to determine revenue recognition. The Company's non-lease revenues are generally reimbursements from tenants, including real estate taxes and other expenses, late fees and other charges which are generally recognized at a point in time in accordance with ASC 606.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include the fair value assumptions used in the valuation of real estate investment assets acquired. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
INCOME TAXES
The Company was formed as a limited liability company and is being treated as a partnership for income tax purposes. Therefore, it is not subject to federal or state income taxes. Net income or loss of the Company and the related taxes thereon are reportable and are the responsibility of the Members. Therefore, no provision for federal or state income taxes is included in the accompanying financial statements.

DECEMBER 31, 2025
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
LESSEE ACCOUNTING
The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.
The Company classifies the ground lease under which the Company is the lessee as an operating lease. Leases qualify as an operating lease if they do not meet the conditions of a finance lease. Leases qualify as a finance lease if any of the following conditions are met: the lease transfers ownership of the asset at the end of the lease term, the lease grants an option to the purchase of the asset that is reasonably certain to exercise, the lease term is for a major part of the remaining economic life of the asset, or the present value of the lease payments exceed substantially all of the fair value of the asset and the underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it expects to have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term.
Upon adoption of ASC 842, the Company recorded a lease liability which is measured as the present value of the lease payments over the lease term and a right-of-use asset which is measured as the amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease payments made at or before commencement, lease incentives received, and initial direct costs incurred.
The Company applies a discount rate to determine the present value of the lease payments. If the rate implicit in the lease is known, the Company uses that rate. If the rate implicit in the lease is not known, the Company uses a discount rate reflective of the Company's collateralized borrowing rate given the term of the lease. To determine the discount rate, the Company developed an analysis based primarily on the observable borrowing rates of the Company and other corporate borrowers with long-term borrowings.
When applicable, the Company combines the consideration for lease and non-lease components in the calculation of the value of the lease obligation and right-of-use asset. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Upon commencement of the ground lease on June 17, 2025, the Company recognized a lease liability of $2,791,347 and a right-of-use asset of $3,976,488 for the ground lease arrangement. The right-of-use asset includes the initial prepaid ground rent of $1,185,141 paid at acquisition.
As of December 31, 2025, the operating lease right-of-use asset was $3,880,872 and the operating lease liability was $2,938,451.

At acquisition, the Company entered into a mortgage loan agreement ("Mortgage Loan") for financing of $107,653,000 with a financial institution (the "Lender") requiring interest only payments through the maturity date of July 1, 2030, at which point, the entire principal balance plus accrued but unpaid interest shall become due and payable. The Mortgage Loan has a fixed interest rate of 5.27% per annum. For the period from June 17, 2025 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2025, the interest expense incurred amounted to $3,168,017.
As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan was $107,653,000. The Mortgage Loan is collateralized by the Property and guaranteed, with certain customary non-recourse carve-out guarantees, by an affiliate of the Investor Member.
The Mortgage Loan payable consists of the following at December 31, 2025:
|
Principal balance |
$ | 107,653,000 | ||
|
Less: unamortized debt issuance costs |
(381,558 | ) | ||
|
Mortgage Loan Payable, net |
$ | 107,271,442 | ||
The Company is required to maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio ("DSCR") of at least 1.25:1.00. In the event the DSCR falls below the above-mentioned ratio, the Company is obligated to follow certain requirements set forth in the loan agreement. As of December 31, 2025, the Company is in compliance with the DSCR requirement.
NOTE 4 - GROUND LEASE
In connection with the acquisition of the Property, the Company entered into a ground lease, which expires on June 15, 2124. The lease requires an annual payment of $72,356 with an annual increase of 3% payable on the last day of every year through expiration. The payments will be prorated for the number of days in the first and last calendar year of the term. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred $242,720 of ground rent expense that is presented on the statement of operations as ground lease expense. The weighted average remaining lease term is 98.5 years and the weighted average discount rate is 5.27% which is the incremental borrowing rate of the Company.

Report of Independent Auditors
To the Management of PPREF/Ryan Shakopee Holdings LLC
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of PPREF/Ryan Shakopee Holdings LLC and its subsidiary (the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of changes in members' equity and of cash flows for the period from March 28, 2025 ("commencement of operations") to December 31, 2025, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements").
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from March 28, 2025 ("commencement of operations")to December 31, 2025 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Responsibilities of Management for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.
Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with US GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from

| 300 Madison Avenue | ||

|

(646) 471 3000 |
fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the consolidated financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with US GAAS, we:
| |
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. |
| |
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. |
| |
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. |
| |
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. |
| |
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. |
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

PPREF/RYAN SHAKOPEE HOLDINGS LLC AND SUBSIDIARY
(A DELAWARE LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD FROM MARCH 28, 2025 (COMMENCEMENT OF OPERATIONS)
TO DECEMBER 31, 2025
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
PPREF/Ryan Shakopee Holdings LLC (the "Company"), was formed on March 10, 2025 under the laws of the state of Delaware, for the purpose of purchasing, managing and operating a distribution facility located in Shakopee, Minnesota (the "Property"). The property was purchased for $99,500,000 excluding acquisition costs and consists of a class A industrial distribution facility which has a total net rentable area of approximately 855,000 square feet situated on 66.1 acres of land. There were no transactions from the date of formation through the date of commencement of operations.
Pursuant to the Limited Liability Company agreement ("operating agreement"), the Company has two members: the Investor Member, who held a 98.49% capital interest at inception, and the Operating Member, who held a 1.51% capital interest. All capitalized terms are as defined in the operating agreement. The Operating Member contributed $1.5 million initially, and the Investor Member funded the remaining acquisition costs until the Mortgage Loan described in Note 4 was obtained. Upon closing of the Mortgage Loan, the ownership interests were adjusted to 96.7% for the Investor Member and 3.3% for the Operating Member.
CONTRIBUTION
The members are required to fund "Initial Capital Contributions" as defined in the operating agreement for the initial acquisition of the property and, to the extent permanent financing is not obtained in an amount sufficient to fully repay the acquisition loan, to contribute capital to repay the shortfall between the acquisition loan payoff amount and the permanent financial amount. Since the inception of the Company, members have made total capital contributions of $100,923,308.
In the event the Investor member determines additional capital contributions are necessary, the members are required to fund their contributions by the date specified in the funding notice. If any member fails to make the contribution, then the other member may 1) withdraw their contribution; 2) loan the Company the non-contributing member's share of the contribution with the option to treat the contributing member's contribution as a loan as well ("Special Loan") ; or 3) fund the non-contributing member's capital contribution and dilute the failing member's ownership in accordance with the operating agreement ("Priority Contribution").
DISTRIBUTIONS
Distributions of operating cash flow are generally allocated to members in accordance with the operating agreement as follows:
| (1) |
First, to the members to the extent of the excess (if any) for each member of (i) the member's preferred return accrued to the date of such distribution over (ii) the aggregate amounts previously distributed to such member; |

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (CONTINUED)
ALLOCATION OF NET INCOME AND LOSS
Pursuant to the operating agreement, income and losses are generally allocated based on the Target Capital Accounts of the Members. Target Capital is the amount the Members would receive if the Company sold all of its assets at book value and repaid all liabilities at book value with any remaining proceeds being distributed to the members in accordance with the distribution provisions of the operating agreement.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PPREF/Shakopee Industrial LLC which is a wholly owned subsidiary of PPREF/Ryan Shakopee Holdings LLC. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION
The Company allocated the purchase price to acquired tangible assets including land, building and improvements, and intangible assets including above market leases, and acquired in-place leases in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations. Upon the acquisition of the Property, the Company assessed whether the transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or an asset acquisition. Acquisitions of integrated sets of assets and activities that do not meet the definition of a business are accounted for as asset acquisitions. The Company's acquisition of real estate generally will not meet the definition of a business because substantially all of the fair value is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets (i.e. land, buildings, and related identified intangible assets) and therefore, was accounted for as an asset acquisition using the relative fair value basis.
The allocation of the purchase price to land, building and improvements are based upon management's determination of fair value using the sales comparison approach and income approaches. The value, if any, of intangibles, such as in-place lease and above-market lease, were material due to the nature of the leases. Accordingly, value is allocated to the intangible lease assets or liabilities in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Differing assumptions and methods could have resulted in different estimates of fair values, and thus, a different purchase price allocation and corresponding increase or decrease in depreciation and amortization expense.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Management evaluates the Property for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. Impairment is recognized when the expected undiscounted cash flows for the Property are less than its carrying amount, at which time the Property is written down to fair value. There were no impairments recognized during the period ended December 31, 2025.
CASH
Cash consists of cash held in depository accounts. The Company may maintain cash balances that exceed federally insured limits but does not believe that this results in any significant credit risk.
TENANTS ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The Company periodically evaluates the collectability of amounts due from tenants and elected an accounting policy to record a general reserve under ASC 326, Current Expected Credit Losses, for tenant receivables that are not probable of collection and to record the reserve as bad debt expense. Tenant receivables are periodically evaluated for collectability based on the tenant's payment history, their current status, and their financial condition. Subsequently, tenant receivables balances that are determined to be troubled are removed from the general reserve and written off with an adjustment to rental revenue net of the general reserve attributable to the lease. At December 31, 2025, no allowance has been recorded as the Company considers collection of all receivables to be highly probable.
Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the noncancelable lease term, which includes the effects of any fixed rent increases and rent abatements under the lease. Straight-line rent is calculated as the amount by which the rental revenue recognized on straight-line basis under the leases exceeds the contractual rental cash payable under the lease. Included in tenant accounts receivable at December 31, 2025 is $171,388, of straight-line rent receivable. There were no other unbilled rent receivables recorded as of December 31, 2025.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS
The Company presents deferred financing costs as a reduction of the mortgage payable, with amortization of deferred financing costs included as a component of interest expense.
Deferred financing costs are amortized over the life of the related loan (8 years) using the effective interest method. Amortization of deferred financing costs for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $70,136 which is included in interest expense on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Estimated amortization of deferred financing costs is expected to be $96,436 over the next five years and $289,308 thereafter.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 842, Leases, ratably over time. All of the Company's leases with tenants are classified as operating leases. When collection of substantially all lease payment during the lease term is considered probable, the lease qualifies for accrual accounting. Base rents and rent abatements from rental operations are recognized on a monthly straight-line basis over the lease term regardless of when payments are due. The lease agreements generally contain a provision for reimbursements of the tenants' share of real estate taxes and certain common area maintenance costs. Revenue from reimbursements is generally billed and recognized in the period the related expenses are incurred. Leases that contain variable lease payments such as percentage rent based on tenant gross sales are classified as operating leases and revenues are recognized at the end of the lease year or other period in which the tenants' base sales volume has been reached.
The Company has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components where certain conditions are met.
Non-lease revenue is recognized under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires a control-based evaluation to determine revenue recognition. The Company's non-lease revenues are generally reimbursements from tenants, including real estate taxes and other expenses, late fees and other charges which are generally recognized at a point in time in accordance with ASC 606.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include the fair value assumptions used in the valuation of real estate investment assets acquired. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

INCOME TAXES
The Company was formed as a limited liability company and is being treated as a partnership for income tax purposes. Therefore, it is not subject to federal or state income taxes. Net income or loss of the Company and the related taxes thereon are reportable and are the responsibility of the Members. Therefore, no provision for federal and state income taxes is included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3 - RENTAL PROPERTY
The Property is leased to a single tenant under an operating lease that expires in June 16, 2031. The tenant has four lease renewal options of 5 years each.

The Company is required to maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio ("DSCR") of at least 1.25:1.00. In the event the DSCR falls below the above-mentioned ratio, the Company is obligated to follow certain requirements set forth in the loan agreement. As of December 31, 2025, the Company is in compliance with the DSCR requirement.
The Mortgage loan may not be prepaid prior to April 9, 2027 and has the following prepayment penalties after the date of the greater of: 1) 1% of the entire outstanding principal balance of the Note and 2) present value as of the date of prepayment of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest determined by discounting such payments at the month equivalent treasury security rate, less the amount of principal being prepaid. The monthly equivalent treasury security rate is defined as the rate which, when compounded monthly, results in a yield that is equivalent to the yield on the most recently auctioned U.S. Treasury Security. The most recent auctioned U.S. Treasury is compounded semi-annually, plus twenty-five (25) basis points, having the same maturity date as the loan.
NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
PROPERTY MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
On March 28, 2025, the Company entered into a Property Management Agreement ("PMA") with Ryan Companies US, Inc. ("Property Manager"). The PMA provides for monthly property management fees of 1.50% of the gross collected operating revenues derived from the property, however, not to be less than $5,470 ("Minimum Management Fee"). The PMA term shall continue unless terminated as provided in the agreement.
For the period from March 28, 2025 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2025, property management fees incurred amounted to $69,270. Overpayment of $2,461 was paid to the Property Manager which is included in other receivables on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

(e) (1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
THE PGIM MUTUAL FUNDS
AUDIT COMMITTEE POLICY
on
Pre-Approval of Services Provided by the Independent
Accountants
The Audit Committee of each PGIM Mutual Fund is charged with the responsibility to monitor the independence of the Fund's independent accountants. As part of this responsibility, the Audit Committee must pre-approve the independent accounting firm's engagement to render audit and/or permissible non-audit services, as required by law. In evaluating a proposed engagement of the independent accountants, the Audit Committee will assess the effect that the engagement might reasonably be expected to have on the accountant's independence. The Committee's evaluation will be based on:
| |
a review of the nature of the professional services expected to be provided, |
| |
a review of the safeguards put into place by the accounting firm to safeguard independence, and |
| |
periodic meetings with the accounting firm. |
Policy for Audit and Non-Audit Services Provided to the Funds
On an annual basis, the scope of audits for each Fund, audit fees and expenses, and audit-related and non-audit services (and fees proposed in respect thereof) proposed to be performed by the Fund's independent accountants will be presented by the Treasurer and the independent accountants to the Audit Committee for review and, as appropriate, approval prior to the initiation of such services. Such presentation shall be accompanied by confirmation by both the Treasurer and the independent accountants that the proposed non-audit services will not adversely affect the independence of the independent accountants. Such proposed non-audit services shall be described in sufficient detail to enable the Audit Committee to assess the appropriateness of such services and fees, and the compatibility of the provision of such services with the auditor's independence. The Committee shall receive periodic reports on the progress of the audit and other services which are approved by the Committee or by the Committee Chair pursuant to authority delegated in this Policy.
The categories of services enumerated under "Audit Services", "Audit-related Services", and "Tax Services" are intended to provide guidance to the Treasurer and the independent accountants as to those categories of services which the Committee believes are generally consistent with the independence of the independent accountants and which the Committee (or the Committee Chair) would expect upon the presentation of specific proposals to pre-approve. The enumerated categories are not intended as an exclusive list of audit, audit-related or tax services, which the Committee (or the Committee Chair) would consider for pre-approval.

Any services provided under such pre-approval will be reported to the Audit Committee at its next regular meeting. Should the amount of such services exceed $30,000 any additional fees will be subject to pre-approval by the Committee Chair (or any other Committee member on whom this responsibility has been delegated). Fees related to fund merger support services are subject to a separate authorized pre-approval by the Audit Committee with fees determined on a per occurrence and merger complexity basis.

Other Non-Audit Services
Certain non-audit services that the independent accountants are legally permitted to render will be subject to pre-approval by the Committee or by one or more Committee members to whom the Committee has delegated this authority and who will report to the full Committee any pre-approval decisions made pursuant to this Policy. Non-audit services presented for pre-approval pursuant to this paragraph will be accompanied by a confirmation from both the Treasurer and the independent accountants that the proposed services will not adversely affect the independence of the independent accountants.

| |

The only non-audit services provided to these entities that will require pre-approval are those related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds. Individual projects that are not presented to the Audit Committee as part of the annual pre-approval process will be subject to pre-approval by the Committee Chair (or any other Committee member on whom this responsibility has been delegated) so long as the estimated fee for those services does not exceed $30,000. Services presented for pre-approval pursuant to this paragraph will be accompanied by a confirmation from both the Treasurer and the independent accountants that the proposed services will not adversely affect the independence of the independent accountants.
Although the Audit Committee will not pre-approve all services provided to PGIM Investments LLC and its affiliates, the Committee will receive an annual report from the Fund's independent accounting firm showing the aggregate fees for all services provided to PGIM Investments and its affiliates.

Item 12 - Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies -
PGIM Real Estate
PGIM Real Estate's proxy voting policy contains detailed voting guidelines on a wide variety of issues commonly voted upon by stockholders. These guidelines reflect PGIM Real Estate's judgment of how to further the best long-range economic interest of our clients (i.e., the mutual interest of clients in seeing the appreciation in value of a common investment over time) through the stockholder voting process. PGIM Real Estate's policy is generally to vote proxies on social or political issues on a case by case basis. Additionally, where issues are not addressed by our policy, or when circumstances suggest a vote not in accordance with our established guidelines, voting decisions are made on a case-by-case basis taking into consideration the potential economic impact of the proposal. With respect to international holdings, we take into account additional restrictions in some countries that might impair our ability to trade those securities or have other potentially adverse economic consequences, and generally vote foreign securities on a best efforts basis in accordance with the recommendations of the issuer's management if we determine that voting is in the best economic interest of our clients.
PGIM Real Estate utilizes the services of a third party proxy voting facilitator, and upon receipt of proxies will direct the voting facilitator to vote in a manner consistent with PGIM Real Estate's established proxy voting guidelines described above (assuming timely receipt of proxy materials from issuers and custodians). In accordance with its obligations under the Managers Act, PGIM Real Estate provides full disclosure of its proxy voting policy, guidelines and procedures to its clients upon their request, and will also provide to any client, upon request, the proxy voting records for that client's securities.

Compensation and Conflicts Disclosure:
PGIM, Inc. (PGIM)
Compensation
PGIM Real Estate provides a competitive total compensation package that engages, motivates and retains top talent while aligning their interests with those of our clients. Portfolio managers are compensated based on the overall performance of PGIM Real Estate and performance of the specific fund or funds they are responsible for managing.
Specifically, there are three elements of compensation: base salary, bonus and long term incentive compensation.
Base salary levels are reviewed annually in the first quarter of the year to determine if an individual should receive an increase based on performance, demands of the job and market compensation data which is provided by Prudential Financial, Inc.'s corporate compensation group.
Cash bonuses are awarded annually based on the scope of the individual's responsibilities, their personal and portfolio performance for the prior year, and the size of the overall bonus pool available in a given year. The bonus pool is determined based on the financial performance of PGIM Real Estate and the investment performance of the portfolio managers specific fund or funds measured against each applicable benchmark or performance targets. An individual's share of the pool is based on his or her contribution toward meeting these goals.
Portfolio management team members at the Vice President level and above also receive annual long-term incentive program compensation ("LTIP"). LTIP awards are based on the same factors as the annual cash bonus. The award, however, is not immediately paid to the individual and vests over three years as described below. Twenty percent (20%) of the LTIP award is made in the form of Prudential Financial restricted stock units which vest proportionately over three years with one-third of the grant vesting on each anniversary until fully vested. The remaining eighty percent (80%) is a deferred cash award which vests in its entirety on the third anniversary of the grant. Over the vesting period, the value of the deferred cash award increases or decreases based on the performance of the accounts on which the portfolio manager works directly.
There is no specific benchmark to measure performance.

As of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the portfolio managers beneficially owned the following shares of the Fund:
| Portfolio Manager | Dollar Range of Equity Securities Owned** | |

Conflicts of Interest
PGIM Real Estate is a division of PGIM, which is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial and is part of a full scale global financial services organization, affiliated with insurance companies, investment advisers and broker-dealers. PGIM Real Estate's portfolio managers are often responsible for managing multiple accounts, including accounts of affiliates, institutional accounts, mutual funds, insurance company separate accounts and various pooled investment vehicles, such as commingled trust funds and unregistered funds. These affiliations and portfolio management responsibilities may cause potential and actual conflicts of interest. PGIM Real Estate aims to conduct itself in a manner it considers to be the most fair and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to all of its clients, including the Fund.
Management of multiple accounts and funds side-by-side may raise potential conflicts of interest relating to the allocation of investment opportunities, the aggregation and allocation of trades and cross trading. PGIM Real Estate has developed policies and procedures designed to address these potential conflicts of interest.
There may be restrictions imposed by law, regulation or contract regarding how much, if any, of a particular investment PGIM Real Estate may purchase or sell on behalf of a Fund, and as to the timing of such purchase or sale. Such restrictions may come into play as a result of PGIM Real Estate's relationship with Prudential Financial and its other affiliates. The Fund may be prohibited from engaging in transactions with its affiliates even when such transactions may be beneficial for the Fund. Certain affiliated transactions are permitted in accordance with applicable law and procedures adopted thereunder by the Fund and reviewed by the independent directors of the Fund.
PGIM Real Estate may come into possession of material, non-public information with respect to a particular issuer and as a result be unable to execute purchase or sale transactions in securities of such issuer for a Fund. PGIM Real Estate, on behalf of client portfolios, engages in real estate and other transactions with REITs and real estate operating
companies and may thereby obtain material, non-public information about issuers, resulting in restrictions in trading in securities of such issuers. PGIM Real Estate generally is able to avoid certain other potential conflicts due to the possession of material, non-public information by maintaining information barriers to prevent the transfer of this information between units of PGIM as well as between affiliates and PGIM. Additionally, in an effort to avoid potential conflicts of interest, PGIM Real Estate has procedures in place to carefully consider whether or not to accept material, non-public information with respect to certain issuers, where appropriate.
Certain affiliates of PGIM Real Estate develop and may publish credit research that is independent from the research developed within PGIM Real Estate. PGIM Real Estate may hold different opinions on the investment merits of a given security, issuer or industry such that PGIM Real Estate may be purchasing or holding a security for the Fund and an affiliated entity may be selling or recommending a sale of the same security or other securities of the issuer. Conversely, PGIM Real Estate may be selling a security for the Fund and an affiliated entity may be purchasing or recommending a buy of the same security or other securities of the same issuer. In addition, PGIM Real Estate's affiliated broker-dealers or investment advisers may be executing transactions in the market in the same securities as the Fund at the same time. PGIM Real Estate may cause transactions to be executed for the Fund concurrently with authorizations to purchase or sell the same assets for other accounts managed by PGIM Real Estate, including proprietary accounts or accounts of affiliates. In these instances, the executions of purchases or sales, where possible, are allocated equitably among the various accounts (including the Fund).
PGIM Real Estate may buy or sell, or may direct or recommend that one client buy or sell, assets of the same kind or class that are purchased or sold for the Fund, at prices which may be different. In addition, PGIM Real Estate may, at any time, execute trades of assets of the same kind or class in one direction for an account and trade in the opposite direction or not trade for any other account, including the Fund, due to differences in investment strategy or client direction.
The fees charged to advisory clients by PGIM Real Estate may differ depending upon a number of factors including, but not limited to, the unit providing the advisory services, the particular strategy, the size of a portfolio being managed, the relationship with the client, the origination and service requirements and the asset class involved. Fees may also differ based on account type (e.g., commingled accounts, trust accounts, insurance company separate accounts, and corporate, bank or trust-owned life insurance products). Fees are negotiable so one client with similar investment objectives or goals may be paying a higher fee than another client. Fees paid by certain clients may also be higher due to performance based fees which increase based on the performance of a portfolio above an established benchmark.
Large clients generate more revenue for PGIM Real Estate than do smaller accounts. A portfolio manager may be faced with a conflict of interest when allocating scarce investment opportunities given the benefit to PGIM Real Estate of favoring accounts that pay a higher fee or generate more income for PGIM. To address this conflict of interest, PGIM Real Estate has adopted allocation policies as well as supervisory procedures that are intended to fairly allocate investment opportunities among competing client accounts. PGIM Real Estate manages certain funds that are subject to incentive compensation on a side-by-side basis with other accounts including the Fund. PGIM Real Estate has implemented policies and procedures to address potential conflicts of interest arising out of such side-by-side management.
Conflicts of interest may also arise regarding proxy voting. A committee of senior business representatives together with relevant regulatory personnel oversees the proxy voting process and monitors potential conflicts of interest relating to proxy voting.
PGIM Real Estate and certain of its affiliates engage in various activities related to investment in real estate. For example, PGIM Real Estate or any of its affiliates may enter into financing arrangements with issuers of real estate securities, including the making of loans secured by the assets or by the credit of the issuer of the real estate securities and may, in certain circumstances, exercise of creditor or other remedies, against the issuer of such real estate securities in connection with such financing arrangements. In addition, PGIM Real Estate or any of its affiliates may buy or sell, or may direct or recommend that another person buy or sell, assets of the same kind or class, or from the same issuer as are purchased or sold for this or any other account under the direction of PGIM Real Estate or any of its affiliates. PGIM Real Estate or its affiliates, as a part of its direct investment in real estate on behalf of clients, may obtain material non-public information regarding an issuer of securities that the Fund may hold or wish to hold. As a consequence of these activities, PGIM Real Estate's ability to purchase or sell, or to choose the timing of purchase or
sale of, real estate securities of a given issuer may be restricted by contract or by applicable laws, including ERISA or federal securities laws.
Prudential Financial and the general account of The Prudential Insurance Company of America ("PICA") may at times have various levels of financial or other interests in companies whose securities may be purchased or sold in PGIM's client accounts, including the Fund. These financial interests may at any time be in potential or actual conflict or may be inconsistent with positions held or actions taken by PGIM on behalf of the Fund. These interests can include loan servicing, debt or equity financing, services related to advising on merger and acquisition issues, strategic corporate relationships or investments and the offering of investment advice in various forms. Thus PGIM may invest Fund assets in the securities of companies with which PGIM or an affiliate of PGIM has a financial relationship, including investment in the securities of companies that are advisory clients of PGIM.
PGIM Real Estate follows Prudential Financial's policies on business ethics, personal securities trading by investment personnel, and information barriers and has adopted a code of ethics, allocation policies, supervisory procedures and conflicts of interest policies, among other policies and procedures, which are designed to ensure that clients are not harmed by these potential and actual conflicts of interests; however, there is no guarantee that such policies and procedures will detect and will ensure avoidance or disclosure of each and every situation in which a conflict may arise.
The Manager and its affiliates have existing and potential relationships with a significant number of corporations, institutions and individuals in matters related to its other businesses and investments. As a result of these relationships, the Manager or Subadviser may face conflicts of interest in connection with any transactions involving an investment by the Fund with such persons, including with respect to the consideration offered by, and the obligations of, such persons. In determining whether to pursue a particular investment on behalf of the Fund, these relationships could be considered by the Manager or Subadviser, and there may be certain potential investments which will not be pursued on behalf of the Fund in view of such relationships. As a result, there can be no assurance that all potentially suitable investment opportunities that come to the attention of the Manager or Subadviser will be made available to the Fund.
