2024 SIMON® Annual Report

• additional secured or unsecured debt financing, or • additional equity raised in the public or private markets.

We expect to generate positive cash flow from operations in 2025, and we consider these projected cash flows in our sources and uses of cash. These cash flows are principally derived from rents paid by our tenants. A significant deterioration in projected cash flows from operations, could cause us to increase our reliance on available funds from the Credit Facilities and Commercial Paper program, further curtail planned capital expenditures, or seek other additional sources of financing.
