Safe Harbor

This communication, together with other statements and information publicly disseminated by Kimco Realty Corporation (the "Company," or "Kimco," or "our") contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and includes this statement for purposes of complying with the safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe the Company's future plans, strategies and expectations, including the Company's sustainability and diversity goals, strategies, targets, commitments, projects, objectives, plans and programs, are generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "commit," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," "will," "target," "plan," "forecast" or similar expressions. You should not rely on forward-looking statements since they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which, in some cases, are beyond the Company's control and could materially affect actual results, performances or achievements, including the Company's ability to achieve the goals, targets and commitments set forth in this communication. Factors which may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to, (i) unexpected delays, difficulties, and expenses in executing against the goals, targets and commitments identified in this communication, (ii) unexpected cost increases or technical difficulties in constructing, maintaining or modifying properties, (iii) energy prices, (iv) technological innovations, (v) natural disasters, and weather and climate-related events, (vi) general adverse economic and local real estate conditions, (vii) the impact of competition, including the availability of acquisition or development opportunities and the costs associated with purchasing and maintaining assets, (viii) the inability of major tenants to continue paying their rent obligations due to bankruptcy, insolvency or a general downturn in their business, (ix) the reduction in the Company's income in the event of multiple lease terminations by tenants or a failure of multiple tenants to occupy their premises in a shopping center, (x) the potential impact of e-commerce and other changes in consumer buying practices, and changing trends in the retail industry and perceptions by retailers or shoppers, including safety and convenience, (xi) the availability of suitable acquisition, disposition, development and redevelopment opportunities, and the costs associated with purchasing and maintaining assets and risks related to acquisitions not performing in accordance with our expectations, (xii) the Company's ability to raise capital by selling its assets, (xiii) disruptions and increases in operating costs due to inflation and supply chain disruptions, (xiv) risks associated with the development of mixed-use commercial properties, including risks associated with the development, and ownership of non-retail real estate, (xv) changes in governmental laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, changes in data privacy, environmental (including climate change), safety and health laws, and management's ability to estimate the impact of such changes, (xvi) the Company's failure to realize the expected benefits of the merger with RPT Realty ("RPT Merger"), (xvii) significant transaction costs and/or unknown or inestimable liabilities related to the RPT Merger, (xviii) the risk of litigation, including shareholder litigation, in connection with the RPT Merger, including any resulting expense, (xix) the ability to successfully integrate the operations of the Company and RPT and the risk that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected, (xx) risks related to future opportunities and plans for the combined company, including the uncertainty of expected future financial performance and results of the combined company, (xxi) effects relating to the RPT Merger on relationships with tenants, employees, joint venture partners and third parties, (xxii) the possibility that, if the Company does not achieve the perceived benefits of the RPT Merger as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by financial analysts or investors, the market price of the Company's common stock could decline, (xxiii) our ability to navigate evolving stakeholder perceptions regarding various ESG policies, goals, memberships and programs, including rankings and scores and both pro- and anti-ESG activism by various stakeholders, including certain policymakers, (xxiv) valuation and risks related to the Company's joint venture and preferred equity investments and other investments, (xxv) valuation of marketable securities, (xxvi) impairment charges, (xxvii) criminal cybersecurity attacks, disruption, data loss or other security incidents and breaches, (xxviii) risks related to artificial intelligence, (xxix) impact of natural disasters and weather and climate-related events, (xxx) pandemics or other health crises, such as coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19"), (xxxi) our ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel, (xxvii) financing risks, such as the inability to obtain equity, debt or other sources of financing or refinancing on favorable terms to the Company, (xxxiii) the level and volatility of interest rates and management's ability to estimate the impact thereof, (xxxiv) changes in the dividend policy for the Company's common and preferred stock and the Company's ability to pay dividends at current levels, (xxxv) unanticipated changes in the Company's intention or ability to prepay certain debt prior to maturity and/or hold certain securities until maturity, (xxxvi) the Company's ability to continue to maintain its status as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes and potential risks and uncertainties in connection with its UPREIT structure, and (xxxvii) the other risks and uncertainties identified under Item 1A, "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, there is no assurance that the Company's expectations will be realized. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised to refer to any further disclosures the Company makes or related subjects in the Company's quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K that the Company files with the SEC.

Furthermore, while future events discussed in this communication may be significant, any significance should not be read as necessarily rising to the level of materiality of certain disclosures included in our SEC filings. In addition, non-financial information, such as that included in parts of this communication, is subject to greater potential limitations than financial information, given the methods used for calculating or estimating such information. For example, standards and expectations regarding the measurement and accounting of various non-financial information (including GHG emissions and any associated reductions) continue to evolve, and it is possible that our approaches both to measuring our emissions and reducing emissions and measuring such reductions may be considered inconsistent with common or best practices with respect to such matters. Certain of our disclosures also rely at least in part on third-party information, and while we are not aware of any material issues with such information, except to the extent disclosed, we have not necessarily independently reviewed this information for accuracy. To the extent our approaches are perceived to fall out of step with common or best practice, or information we use in formulating our disclosures is subsequently determined to be inaccurate, we may be subject to additional scrutiny, criticism, regulatory and investment engagement or litigation, any of which may adversely impact our business, financial condition, or results or operations.

In addition, many of the standards and performance metrics used and referred to in the environmental, social and governance-related goals, targets and commitments set forth or referred to in this communication continue to evolve and are based on management expectations and assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time of preparation, but should not be considered guarantees. The standards and performance metrics used, and the expectations and assumptions they are based on, have not unless otherwise expressly specified, been verified by any third party. In addition, while we seek to align the disclosures set forth or referred to in this communication with the recommendations of various third-party frameworks, such as the Global Reporting Initiative, the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board, and the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures, we cannot guarantee strict adherence to these framework recommendations. Additionally, our disclosures based on these frameworks or otherwise may change due to revisions in framework requirements, availability or quality of information, changes in our business or applicable governmental policies, or other factors, some of which may be beyond the Company's control, and we cannot guarantee that our approach to such matters will align with any particular methodology or the preferred practices and interpretations of any particular stakeholder.

4Stated goal reflects Kimco goal as of Q12024. Achieved previous goal to "Increase the proportion of diverse employees in management to 60% by 2030, by developing programs to recruit, develop and retain diverse* talent and promoting a culture of inclusion." *We recognize that there are many attributes that contribute to the diversity of our management and workforce. However, for purposes of this goal and reporting, included individuals who identified as belonging to an underrepresented race/ethnicity and/or gender. Progress against the previous goal was 60.1% as of Q12024.
