*Additional guidance assumptions can be found in the Company’s accompanying quarterly financial supplement.

*As described in more detail in the Company’s accompanying quarterly financial supplement, consistent with applicable SEC rules, we do not provide guidance for GAAP net income per share, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, or a reconciliation of estimated 2026 Core FFO per share to estimated GAAP net income per share because we are unable to reasonably predict certain items that are included in GAAP net income, including gains or losses on sales of real estate investments.

Operating Results

“Occupancy and move-in rates were ahead of expectations through the first quarter, but the true standout was our ability to utilize our integrated PS Next Operating Platform to mitigate inflationary pressures on our direct cost of operations. This focus on digital transformation has allowed us to maintain superior margins even as we navigate a shifting market” said Natalia Johnson, President, Chief Digital and Transformation Officer. “We are incredibly excited about the pending acquisition of National Storage Affiliates, as it provides a premier opportunity to demonstrate the scalability of our digital ecosystem as we onboard these assets and realize the benefits of our PS Next platform.”

The operating results of our 2,755 Same Store Facilities (192.1 million net rentable square feet), which represent approximately 84% of the net rentable square feet in our U.S. consolidated portfolio, are as follows:

Investment and Third-Party Management Activity

NSA Merger: On March 16, 2026, the Company announced that it had entered into a merger agreement to acquire National Storage Affiliates Trust (“NSA”), a Maryland real estate investment trust, listed on the New York Stock Exchange, in an all-stock transaction. NSA’s portfolio includes more than 1,000 properties, 69 million rentable square feet, and 550,000 units across 37 states and Puerto Rico. The merger is expected to add $0.35 to $0.50 to Core FFO Per Share at stabilization. In connection with the transaction, Public Storage and limited partners in NSA’s operating partnership will form a joint venture consisting of certain properties on NSA’s operating platform. The NSA operating partnership unitholders are expected to own approximately 80% of the joint venture at inception, with Public Storage holding the remaining interest. Public Storage will exclusively manage the joint venture portfolio and will earn customary property management, asset management and tenant reinsurance income. The merger transaction, which is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026, is subject to the approval of NSA equity holders and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.

Acquisitions: During the quarter, we acquired three self-storage facilities with 0.2 million net rentable square feet for $20.8 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and including activity subsequent to quarter end, we acquired or were under contract to acquire 18 facilities with 1.4 million net rentable square feet for $186.3 million.

New Developments and Expansions: During the quarter, we completed new developments and various expansion projects, which contributed 0.3 million net rentable square feet at a cost of $45.4 million.

At March 31, 2026, we had various facilities in development (2.5 million net rentable square feet) estimated to cost $449.8 million and various expansion projects (1.0 million net rentable square feet) estimated to cost $168.6 million. In total, these development and expansion projects are expected to deliver 3.5 million net rentable square feet at an aggregate cost of approximately $618.4 million. The remaining $415.7 million of development costs for these projects are expected to be incurred primarily in the next 18 to 24 months.

Lending: At March 31, 2026, we have total notes receivable of $142.5 million at an average annual interest rate of 7.9%.

Third-Party Management: During the quarter, we added 20 facilities to our third-party property management program. At March 31, 2026, we managed or were under contract to manage 441 facilities (35.1 million net rentable square feet) through the program including 68 facilities currently under construction.

Capital Markets Activity and Balance Sheet

The Company’s total indebtedness as of March 31, 2026 was $10.1 billion, with $650 million, or 6.4%, maturing in 2026. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had approximately $1.9 billion of liquidity through a combination of cash, undrawn capacity on its credit facility, and expected retained cash flow over the next twelve months. Subsequent to quarter end, we issued $500 million of senior notes, bearing interest at a fixed rate of 5.000% per year and maturing on December 15, 2035. We used a portion of these proceeds to repay the $325 million balance on our line of credit.

Supplemental Information

This press release, our Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2026, the accompanying quarterly financial supplement, and additional information about Public Storage are available on our website, www.publicstorage.com.

Definitions (unaudited)

Annual contract rent: Represents the agreed upon monthly rate that is paid by our tenants in place at the time of measurement. Contract rates are initially set in the lease agreement upon move-in, and we adjust them from time to time with notice. Contract rent excludes other fees that are charged on a per-item basis, such as late charges and administrative fees, does not reflect the impact of promotional discounts, and does not reflect the impact of rents that are written off as uncollectible.

Funds Available for Distribution (“FAD”): FFO adjusted to exclude certain non-cash charges and to deduct recurring capital expenditures, which do not include capital expenditures for energy efficiencies including the installation of LED lighting, solar panels, and heat pumps; or capital expenditures for other property enhancements including acquisition rebrandings and commercial conversions. We utilize FAD in evaluating our ongoing cash flow available for investment, debt repayment, and common distributions. We believe investors and analysts utilize FAD in a similar manner. FAD is not a substitute for GAAP net cash flow in evaluating our liquidity or ability to pay dividends, because it excludes investing and financing activities presented on our statements of cash flows. In addition, other REITs may compute this measure differently, so comparisons among REITs may not be helpful.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and FFO per diluted common share (“FFO per share”): Non-GAAP measures defined by Nareit. We believe that FFO and FFO per share are useful to REIT investors and analysts in measuring our performance because Nareit’s definition of FFO excludes items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating and financial performance. FFO represents net income before real estate-related depreciation and amortization, which is excluded because it is based upon historical costs and assumes that building values diminish ratably over time, while we believe that real estate values fluctuate due to market conditions. FFO also excludes gains or losses on sale of real estate assets and real estate impairment charges, which are also based upon historical costs and are impacted by historical depreciation. FFO and FFO per share are not a substitute for net income or earnings per share. FFO is not a substitute for net cash flow in evaluating our liquidity or ability to pay dividends, because it excludes investing and financing activities presented on our consolidated statements of cash flows. In addition, other REITs may compute these measures differently, so comparisons among REITs may not be helpful.

We also present “Core FFO” and “Core FFO per share” non-GAAP measures that represent FFO and FFO per share excluding the impact of (i) foreign currency exchange gains and losses, (ii) charges related to the redemption of preferred securities, and (iii) certain other non-cash and/or nonrecurring income or expense items primarily representing, with respect to the periods presented below, the impact of corporate transformation costs, loss contingencies, due diligence costs incurred in pursuit of strategic transactions, realized or unrealized gain or loss on private equity investments and non-hedge designated derivative transactions, certain CEO transition-related costs, and amortization of acquired non real estate-related intangibles. We review Core FFO and Core FFO per share to evaluate our ongoing operating performance and we believe they are used by investors and REIT analysts in a similar manner. However, Core FFO and Core FFO per share are not substitutes for net income and net income per share. Because other REITs may not compute Core FFO or Core FFO per share in the same manner as we do, may not use the same terminology or may not present such measures, Core FFO and Core FFO per share may not be comparable among REITs.

Net operating income (“NOI”): Net operating income or “NOI” is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of depreciation and amortization expense, which is based upon historical real estate costs and assumes that building values diminish ratably over time, while we believe that real estate values fluctuate due to market conditions. We utilize NOI in determining current property values, evaluating property performance, and evaluating property operating trends. We believe that investors and analysts utilize NOI in a similar manner. Direct net operating income (“Direct NOI”), a subtotal within NOI, is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of supervisory payroll, centralized management costs, and share-based compensation in addition to depreciation and amortization expense. We utilize direct net operating income in evaluating property performance and in evaluating property operating trends as compared to our competitors. We believe that investors and analysts utilize NOI and Direct NOI in a similar manner. These measures are not a substitute for net income, operating cash flow, or other related financial measures, in evaluating our operating results. See Note 14 to our March 31, 2026 consolidated financial statements for a reconciliation of NOI to our total net income for all periods presented.

4

Realized annual rent per occupied square foot: Computed by dividing rental income, before late charges and administrative fees, by the weighted average occupied square feet for the period. This measure excludes late charges and administrative fees in order to provide a better measure of our ongoing level of revenue. Late charges are dependent upon the level of delinquency, and administrative fees are dependent upon the level of move-ins. In addition, the rates charged for late charges and administrative fees can vary independently from rental rates. This measure takes into consideration promotional discounts, which reduce rental income.

Realized annual rent per available square foot: Computed by dividing rental income, before late charges and administrative fees, by the total available net rentable square feet for the period. Similar to realized annual rent per occupied square foot, this measure excludes late charges and administrative fees, and takes into consideration promotional discounts, which reduce rental income.

Same Store Facilities: Consist of facilities we have owned and operated on a stabilized level of occupancy, revenues, and cost of operations since January 1, 2024. The composition of our Same Store Facilities allows us more effectively to evaluate the ongoing performance of our self-storage portfolio by excluding the impact of fill-up of unstabilized facilities, which can significantly affect operating trends. We believe investors and analysts use Same Store Facilities information in a similar manner. However, because other REITs may not compute Same Store Facilities in the same manner as we do, may not use the same terminology or may not present such a measure, Same Store Facilities may not be comparable among REITs.
