Elme Communities
A real-estate investment trust that owns and runs apartment communities in the Washington, D.C. area. It began in 1960 as the Washington Real Estate Investment Trust, or WashREIT — the first REIT in the United States — and later sold off its offices and shops to focus purely on apartments. In 2022 it renamed itself Elme Communities, a blend of "elevate" and "home."

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in Item 1 of this report and the more detailed information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 27, 2026. We refer to the three months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 as the “2026 Quarter” and the “2025 Quarter,” respectively, and the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 as the “2026 Period” and the “2025 Period,” respectively.

While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. We undertake no obligation to update our forward-looking statements or risk factors to reflect new information, future events, or otherwise. General We provide Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) in addition to the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes to assist readers in understanding our results of operations and financial condition. Prior to adoption of the Plan of Sale and Liquidation, for purposes of evaluating comparative operating performance, we categorized our properties as “same-store” or “non-same-store.” Same-store portfolio properties included properties that were 21 owned for the entirety of the years being compared and excluded properties under redevelopment or development and properties acquired, sold or classified as held for sale during the years being compared. Following our adoption of a liquidation basis of accounting, our properties are no longer categorized in this manner and therefore we have not provided operating metrics on a same-store/non same-store basis. Overview On February 13, 2025, the Company announced that its Board had initiated a formal review to evaluate strategic alternatives. On August 4, 2025, the Company announced that the Board had completed its review, that Elme had entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2025, for the sale of 19 multifamily properties from Elme for approximately $1.6 billion in cash, subject to certain adjustments and prorations (the “Portfolio Sale Transaction”), and that the Board had also approved a plan of sale and liquidation (the “Plan of Sale and Liquidation”), which contemplates the sale or disposition of all the Company’s assets, the wind-down of the Company’s business and affairs and the termination of the Company’s existence by voluntary dissolution. The Plan of Sale and Liquidation includes a plan of liquidation that provides for the Company’s complete liquidation and dissolution in accordance with Section 331, Section 336 and Section 346(a) of the Code. On October 30, 2025, our shareholders approved the Portfolio Sale Transaction and the Plan of Sale and Liquidation, and on November 12, 2025, Elme completed the Portfolio Sale Transaction. Also on November 12, 2025, certain indirect subsidiaries of the Company, as borrowers (collectively, the “Borrowers”), and Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as lender (the “Lender”), entered into that certain Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) pursuant to which the Lender has made a senior secured term loan of $520.0 million (the “Secured Term Loan”) to the Borrowers. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Secured Term Loan was secured by first priority mortgages and security interests on all ten properties that remained under the Company following the closing of the Portfolio Sale Transaction (which were directly owned by the Borrowers) and included: Riverside Apartments, Elme Bethesda, Elme Germantown, Elme Watkins Mill, 3801 Connecticut Avenue, The Kenmore, Elme Conyers, Elme Marietta, Elme Sandy Springs, and Watergate 600 (the “Remaining Company Properties”). In addition, the Secured Term Loan was secured by pledges of all equity interests in the Borrowers, along with all other personal property of the Borrowers. During the first quarter of 2026, we completed the sale of four of the Remaining Company Properties, Elme Sandy Springs, Elme Marietta, Elme Conyers and Watergate 600, comprising approximately 1,000 residential apartment homes and 300,000 square feet of commercial space, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $199.0 million. During the 2026 Quarter, we completed the sale of two of the Remaining Company Properties, Elme Germantown and Elme Watkins Mill, comprising 428 residential apartment homes, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $95.0 million. For each of these sales, a portion of the net proceeds was used to repay a portion of the Secured Term Loan, and those sold properties were released from the mortgages securing the Secured Term Loan. As of June 30, 2026, the remaining outstanding balance of the Secured Term Loan was $251.0 million. In addition, during the 2026 Quarter, we entered into three separate purchase and sale agreements pursuant to which we expect to sell The Kenmore, 3801 Connecticut Avenue and Elme Bethesda. These three purchase and sale agreements, which provide for gross proceeds of approximately $168.0 million in the aggregate (subject to certain customary adjustments and prorations), are no longer subject to ongoing inspection periods, but remain subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions including, in the case of the two DC properties, regulatory requirements related to TOPA. The closing of each DC property is expected to occur shortly after completion of its TOPA process, subject to satisfaction of other applicable closing conditions. The buyer of each DC property has commenced discussions with the property’s tenant association, and, assuming no purchase rights are exercised or assigned to a party other than the contract buyer, Elme currently anticipates the TOPA process for both properties to be completed no later than the end of 2026. The Company has obtained the certificate of compliance from the Montgomery County Department of Housing and Community Affairs certifying compliance with Montgomery County’s right of first refusal requirements with respect to Elme Bethesda, and, following such receipt, the parties to the purchase and sale agreement for Elme Bethesda have agreed to close the sale no later than August 11, 2026. As previously disclosed, in May 2026 the Company had entered into a purchase and sale agreement for Riverside Apartments (including related undeveloped land) which was subject to an ongoing inspection period and, on June 17, 2026, the buyer under that purchase and sale agreement exercised its right to terminate. On July 23, 2026, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement for Riverside Apartments (including related undeveloped land) with a new purchaser, which had previously submitted a proposal to acquire the property, for a contract sale price of $250.0 million, subject to certain customary adjustments and prorations. This new purchase and sale agreement is subject to an ongoing inspection period, as well as satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The new purchase and sale agreement for Riverside Apartments provides that, subject to completion of the inspection period and the satisfaction of the closing conditions, the sale of Riverside Apartments will close no later than September 14, 2026. 22 Given the Plan of Sale and Liquidation, our efforts are focused on selling the remaining properties, winding down the Company’s affairs and, when appropriate and in the Board’s discretion, distributing the net proceeds to our shareholders subject to the creation of necessary reserves for, and payment or other satisfaction of, the Company’s expenses and other liabilities and obligations. If we have not sold all of our remaining properties and paid all of our liabilities within 24 months after shareholder approval of the Plan of Sale and Liquidation, which was received on October 30, 2025, or if the Board otherwise determines that it is advantageous to do so earlier, we may transfer our remaining assets and liabilities to a liquidating trust and distribute interests in the liquidating trust to our shareholders or otherwise convert Elme to a liquidating limited liability company, partnership, or trust. We cannot predict the exact amount to be distributed or the timing of the completion of the liquidation and termination of Elme’s existence. Initial Liquidating Distribution In accordance with the Plan of Sale and Liquidation, following completion of the Portfolio Sale Transaction in November 2025, the Board approved a special liquidating distribution of $14.67 per common share of the Company’s shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share (“common shares”) to its shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 22, 2025. The special liquidating distribution was paid on January 7, 2026. Disposition Activity During the first quarter of 2026, we completed the sale of four of the Remaining Company Properties, Elme Sandy Springs, Elme Marietta, Elme Conyers and Watergate 600, comprising approximately 1,000 residential apartment homes and 300,000 square feet of commercial space, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $199.0 million. During the 2026 Quarter, we completed the sale of two of the Remaining Company Properties, Elme Germantown and Elme Watkins Mill, comprising 428 residential apartment homes, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $95.0 million. For each of these sales, a portion of the net proceeds was used to repay a portion of the Secured Term Loan, and those sold properties were released from the mortgages securing the Secured Term Loan. As of June 30, 2026, our portfolio consisted of the following assets located in the Washington, DC metro region. Properties Location Riverside Apartments (1) Alexandria, VA 3801 Connecticut Avenue Washington, DC The Kenmore Washington, DC Elme Bethesda Bethesda, MD (1) Includes an undeveloped land parcel held for development adjacent to the Riverside Apartments. In addition, during the 2026 Quarter, we entered into three separate purchase and sale agreements pursuant to which we expect to sell The Kenmore, 3801 Connecticut Avenue and Elme Bethesda. These three purchase and sale agreements, which provide for gross proceeds of approximately $168.0 million in the aggregate (subject to certain customary adjustments and prorations), are no longer subject to ongoing inspection periods, but remain subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions including, in the case of the two DC properties, regulatory requirements related to TOPA. The closing of each DC property is expected to occur shortly after completion of its TOPA process, subject to satisfaction of other applicable closing conditions. The buyer of each DC property has commenced discussions with the property’s tenant association, and, assuming no purchase rights are exercised or assigned to a party other than the contract buyer, Elme currently anticipates the TOPA process for both properties to be completed no later than the end of 2026. The Company has obtained the certificate of compliance from the Montgomery County Department of Housing and Community Affairs certifying compliance with Montgomery County’s right of first refusal requirements with respect to Elme Bethesda, and, following such receipt, the parties to the purchase and sale agreement for Elme Bethesda have agreed to close the sale no later than August 11, 2026. As previously disclosed, in May 2026 the Company had entered into a purchase and sale agreement for Riverside Apartments (including related undeveloped land) which was subject to an ongoing inspection period and, on June 17, 2026, the buyer under that purchase and sale agreement exercised its right to terminate. On July 23, 2026, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement for Riverside Apartments (including related undeveloped land) with a new purchaser, which had previously submitted a proposal to acquire the property, for a contract sale price of $250.0 million, subject to certain customary adjustments and prorations. This new purchase and sale agreement is subject to an ongoing inspection period, as well as satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The new purchase and sale agreement for Riverside Apartments provides that, 23 subject to completion of the inspection period and the satisfaction of the closing conditions, the sale of Riverside Apartments will close no later than September 14, 2026. Because the sales of Elme’s remaining properties are subject to, as applicable, satisfactory completion of an inspection period with respect to Riverside Apartments, and satisfaction of closing conditions, including, with respect to the DC properties, regulatory requirements related to the TOPA, the exact timing of completing the sales of the unsold Remaining Company Properties cannot be determined at this time and no assurance can be given as to how long it will take to complete the sale of any or all of its unsold Remaining Company Properties. NYSE Listing While the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) has discretionary authority to delist the Company’s common shares following shareholder approval of the Plan of Sale and Liquidation, the Company intends for its common shares to continue to be listed on the NYSE, subject to continued compliance with NYSE listing requirements, until such time in the future as the Board determines to voluntarily delist its common shares from the NYSE in order to reduce operating expenses and maximize liquidating distributions. The Company does not currently expect to voluntarily delist prior to completing the sale of Riverside Apartments and repayment of the Secured Term Loan, and – assuming completion of the property sales as described above – currently expects the NYSE delisting and Company dissolution process to occur in the fourth quarter of 2026. While the Board currently intends to take the actions as outlined above, consistent with the Plan of Sale and Liquidation, the timing of these actions remains subject to change, including as a result of any changes in the timing of property sale closings. In addition, the Board may modify or delay these actions if it determines that doing so is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. Financing Activity As of June 30, 2026 and July 30, 2026, the interest rate on the Secured Term Loan is 6.38%, which is based on the one-month term SOFR plus 2.75% applicable margin. $251.0 million of the principal under the Secured Term Loan remains outstanding as of July 30, 2026. Recent Tax Legislation Effective July 4, 2025, certain changes to U.S. tax law were approved that may impact us and our shareholders. Among other changes, this legislation (i) permanently extended the 20% deduction for “qualified REIT dividends” for individuals and other non-corporate taxpayers under Section 199A of the Code, (ii) increased the percentage limit under the REIT asset test applicable to taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) from 20% to 25% for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025, and (iii) increased the base on which the 30% interest deduction limit under Section 163(j) of the Code applies by excluding depreciation, amortization and depletion from the definition of “adjusted taxable income” (i.e., based on EBITDA rather than EBIT) for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2024. 24 Results of Operations As of June 30, 2026, we owned approximately 2,100 residential apartment homes in the Washington, DC metro region compared to 9,400 residential apartment homes in the Washington, DC and Atlanta metro regions as of June 30, 2025. We also owned and operated approximately 300,000 square feet of commercial space in the Washington, DC metro region as of June 30, 2025, which was sold during the first quarter of 2026. Our revenues are derived primarily from the ownership and operation of income producing property. In light of the approval of the Plan of Sale and Liquidation on October 30, 2025, the adoption of the liquidation basis of accounting as of November 1, 2025, the sale of 19 assets in the Portfolio Sale Transaction in November 2025 for approximately gross proceeds of $1.6 billion, the sales during the first quarter of 2026 of Elme Sandy Springs, Elme Marietta, Elme Conyers and Watergate 600, comprising approximately 1,000 residential apartment homes and 300,000 square feet of commercial space, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $199.0 million, and the sales during the 2026 Quarter of Elme Germantown and Elme Watkins Mill, comprising approximately 400 residential apartment homes for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $95.0 million, the results of operations for the 2026 Quarter and 2026 Period are not comparable to the 2025 Quarter or 2025 Period, respectively. Operating Metrics Average Occupancy is based on average daily occupied apartment homes as a percentage of total apartment homes. Ending Occupancy is calculated as occupied homes as a percentage of total homes as of the last day of that period. Average Occupancy and Ending Occupancy for our four remaining residential properties for the 2026 Quarter was 93.3% and 93.5%, respectively, compared to 95.3% and 95.6%, respectively, for the same four properties for the 2025 Quarter. Average Occupancy for our four remaining residential properties for the 2026 Period was 93.1% compared to 95.3% for the same four properties for the 2025 Period. 25 Liquidity and Capital Resources As described in the “Overview” section, our Board and our shareholders approved the Plan of Sale and Liquidation. In accordance with the Plan of Sale and Liquidation, our objectives are to pursue an orderly liquidation of our Company by selling or otherwise disposing of our remaining assets, paying or otherwise settling our debts and our known liabilities, providing for the payment of unknown or contingent liabilities, when appropriate and in the Board’s discretion, distributing the net proceeds to our shareholders, subject to the creation of necessary reserves for, and payment or other satisfaction of, the Company’s expenses and other liabilities and obligations and winding up our operations and dissolving our company. On November 25, 2025, we announced a special liquidating distribution of $14.67 per common share which was paid on January 7, 2026 to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 22, 2025. We may pay one or more additional liquidating distribution(s) to our shareholders during the remainder of the liquidation process. It is the Company’s current expectation that, prior to delisting from the NYSE, the Company would make an additional liquidating distribution in an amount to be determined by the Board. However, as noted above, the amount and timing of all additional liquidating distributions remain subject to the Board’s discretion. We expect to pay the final liquidating distribution after we sell all of our assets, pay or provide for all of our known liabilities and obligations and provide for unknown liabilities and obligations. We expect to complete these activities within 24 months of October 30, 2025, the day we received shareholder approval of the Plan of Sale and Liquidation. A final liquidating distribution to our shareholders may not be paid until all of our liabilities have been satisfied. Our expectations about the amount of liquidating distributions that we will pay and when we will pay them are based on many estimates and assumptions, one or more of which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, the actual amount of the remaining liquidating distributions we pay to our shareholders may be more or less than we estimate and the remaining liquidating distributions may be paid later than we predict. We intend to maintain adequate cash reserves for liquidity, debt repayments and other future capital needs. We expect our principal demands for funds during the liquidation period are and will be for the payment of operating expenses, principal and interest payments on our Secured Term Loan, general and administrative expenses, including expenses in connection with the Plan of Sale and Liquidation, transaction costs related to asset sales and payments of distributions to shareholders pursuant to the Plan of Sale and Liquidation. We expect to use our cash on hand and net sales proceeds from the sale of our assets as our primary source of liquidity. We believe we will have adequate liquidity to operate our business and to meet our cash requirements, including meeting our debt obligations, through the wind-down of the Company’s business and affairs and the termination of the Company’s existence by voluntary dissolution. To the extent available, we also intend to use cash flow generated by our real estate assets; however, asset sales will further reduce cash flow from these sources. As of June 30, 2026, our cash and cash equivalents were approximately $41.3 million and we had $17.3 million of restricted cash (funds held by the Lender in lender-controlled reserve accounts under the Secured Term Loan, including reserves for property taxes and insurance premiums, capital expenditures and certain other approved operating expenses and capital items). Liquidating Distributions On July 24, 2026, the Company announced that its current estimate of the total amount of remaining liquidating distributions to be funded from the net proceeds of sales of the Remaining Company Properties was estimated to be between $1.74 and $1.94 per share. Based on this updated estimate, the total amount of liquidating distributions (including the initial $14.67 per common share liquidating distribution paid in January 2026) was estimated to be between $16.41 and $16.61 per share. The Company’s estimate of the ranges of liquidating distributions were derived from a number of assumptions and estimates, including the estimated range of gross asset sales proceeds for the Remaining Company Properties, many of which are outside the Company’s control and may not prove to be accurate, which could cause actual liquidating distributions to be less or more than the estimated ranges. For more information regarding the estimates and assumptions, and various risks associated with such estimates and assumptions, see the risk factor previously disclosed in “Part I - Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, titled “We cannot determine at this time the amount or timing of the remaining liquidating distributions, if any, to our shareholders in connection with the Plan of Sale and Liquidation because there are many factors that could affect the amount or timing of any such liquidating distributions, if any, some of which are not within our control.” Debt Financing Aside from the Secured Term Loan described in the “Overview” section, the Company does not have any other outstanding debt obligations as of June 30, 2026. 26 Debt Covenants As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with the covenants related to the Secured Term Loan, including those covenants with respect to maintenance of insurance, single-purpose bankruptcy, remote entity requirements, reporting requirements and restrictions on property and equity transfers and the granting of liens. Common Equity We have authorized for issuance 150.0 million common shares, of which 88.9 million shares were outstanding at June 30, 2026. On February 20, 2024, we entered into an equity distribution agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., TD Securities (USA) LLC and Truist Securities, Inc. as agents and forward sellers, as applicable, (collectively, the “Agents” or “Forward Sellers”, as applicable), and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, The Bank of New York Mellon, Citibank, N.A., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., The Toronto-Dominion Bank and Truist Bank as forward purchasers pursuant to which up to an aggregate gross sales price of $350.0 million of the Company’s common shares, may be offered and sold from time to time through the Agents, acting as the Company’s sales agents or, if applicable, the Forward Sellers, or directly to the Agents as principals for their own accounts. We did not issue common shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement during the 2026 Period or 2025 Period and we terminated the Equity Distribution Agreement during the first quarter of 2026. We previously had a dividend reinvestment program, whereby shareholders were able to use their dividends and optional cash payments to purchase common shares, which was suspended in September 2025. Prior to the suspension, the common shares sold under this program were either common shares issued by us or common shares purchased in the open market. During the suspension period, dividend payments were not automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common shares of beneficial interest and participants in the dividend reinvestment program were not able to purchase shares of our common shares of beneficial interest through optional cash investments under the dividend reinvestment program. No common shares were issued under the dividend reinvestment program during the 2026 Period or 2025 Period. The dividend reinvestment program was formally terminated during the 2026 Quarter. Preferred Equity Our Board can, at its discretion, authorize the issuance of up to 10.0 million preferred shares. The ability to issue preferred equity provides Elme an additional financing tool that may be used to raise capital for business purposes. As of June 30, 2026, no preferred shares were issued and outstanding. Contractual Obligations We owed $251.0 million as of June 30, 2026 on our Secured Term Loan. We currently lease and occupy office space for our corporate headquarters. The corporate office lease has an expiration date of September 30, 2033 and we would expect to incur approximately $3.2 million in prepayment penalties if we terminate the lease during 2026. We are actively exploring alternatives to reduce the total cost of our corporate headquarters. We have and will continue to incur severance, retention and benefit obligations in association with our Plan of Sale and Liquidation. As of June 30, 2026, we estimate that remaining payments in 2026 related to such obligations will total approximately $14.4 million. In addition to our Secured Term Loan, office lease and severance obligations, we have various standing or renewable contracts with vendors. The majority of these contracts can be canceled with immaterial or no cancellation penalties, with the exception of our elevator maintenance agreements and our electricity and gas purchase agreements. Contract terms on leases that can be canceled are generally one year or less. 27 Historical Cash Flows Cash provided by operating activities was $46.0 million for the 2025 Period. Cash used in investing activities was $14.5 million for the 2025 Period, primarily due to capital improvement expenditures at our residential communities. Cash used in financing activities was $33.1 million for the 2025 Period, primarily due to the payment of quarterly dividends. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2026 that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. Critical Accounting Estimates We base the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. There were no changes made by management to the critical accounting policies in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. We discuss the most critical estimates in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 27, 2026. 28

We are involved from time to time in various legal proceedings, lawsuits, examinations by various tax authorities and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that the resolution of any such current matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. Matters that arise out of allegations of bodily injury, property damage and employment practices are generally covered by insurance. One such matter, Madusou Cherif, et al. v. Elme Communities Inc., et al., Civ. No. 24EV006232 (State Court of Fulton County, Georgia), relates to a drowning event that occurred at one of the Company’s properties, which was sold earlier this year. Consistent with the foregoing, Management expects that this matter will be covered by insurance and does not believe the resolution of this matter will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. However, if the Company did incur liability and costs in excess of available insurance limits, that could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
