## Products & services

NNN REIT’s core offering is the ownership and leasing of freestanding commercial properties, principally under long-term triple-net leases. Its portfolio includes properties used for automotive service, convenience stores, restaurants, automobile dealerships, automotive parts retail and travel plazas. [8](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P89936185)[9](https://www.nnnreit.com/properties-leasing/our-portfolio/)

Most leases have initial terms of 10–20 years. Under the typical triple-net structure, tenants pay property utilities, taxes and assessments, insurance, maintenance, repairs and capital expenditures. Leases generally also provide for annual base-rent increases, often fixed or linked to CPI; specific lease terms can vary. [10](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P146385760)

The company’s March 2026 investor presentation reports that automotive service represented 18.6% of annualized base rent (ABR) and convenience stores 15.9%, using year-end 2025 data. These figures describe rent mix, not revenue or NOI by property type. [11](https://www.nnnreit.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/030226_NNNInvestorPresentation_FINAL.pdf)

## Business segments

NNN REIT, Inc. reports one operating and reportable segment: its consolidated real-estate portfolio, consisting primarily of properties leased to tenants under long-term net leases. The company does not disclose separate reportable business segments or a revenue allocation among them; accordingly, this single segment accounts for effectively all consolidated operations and revenue. [15](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P55163956)[16](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P75369263)[17](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P7877481)[18](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P7043982) Portfolio analyses by line of trade and state are additional ways of describing the holdings, not separately reported segments.
