FROM THE CHAIRMAN, CEO & PRESIDENT

DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS, Let me begin by thanking all Simon Property Group (“SPG,” “Simon” or the “Company”) associates for delivering yet another record-breaking year. We achieved record highs in total revenue, Domestic Property Net Operating Income (“NOI”), Funds From Operations (“FFO”) per share, dividends per share, leasing volumes and retailer sales. We recently hosted our National Conference in our hometown of Indianapolis, where our field management associates gathered with our corporate team for three days of innovating idea exchanges, corporate strategy updates, social interaction and an awards ceremony to celebrate and recognize the best at Simon. Following the Conference, the entire Simon team is energized and confident in delivering another strong year in 2025.

David Simon CHAIRMAN, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER & PRESIDENT

$6.0 Billion Consolidated Revenue $4.9 Billion FFO $6.4 Billion Beneficial Interest Of Combined NOI $3.0 Billion Cash Dividends Paid

The central theme of our Conference, “Now. New. Next.,” perfectly captures our mindset. As I look back on our recent accomplishments and industry-leading performance, I can’t think of a better mantra to describe what we are all about. We are laser-focused on today, but always looking forward to improving leasing and development activities, property management operations, capital structure, our omnichannel and marketing initiatives, ensuring we stay innovative, efficient and agile. My role as Chairman and CEO is to find the right balance between our product (the asset) and profitability, the 2P’s. We work in unison to deliver a better product for our consumers and retailers. Our asset focus encompasses many areas, including the appropriate tenant mix, ambiance, services and amenities, and our connection with the consumer. We are transforming our properties through our extensive redevelopment and expansion initiatives

and introducing innovations to make the shopping experience easier, convenient and more vibrant. We have never been more excited about our ability to improve our product and deliver more of what today’s discerning shopper wants. Our job is to continuously upgrade the merchandise mix and create unique gathering places for the communities in which we operate. We continue to differentiate our Company through investments in our physical assets, adding hospitality, wellness, food & entertainment, e-commerce, retail brands and growth stage companies that operate at the intersection of retail and technology driving forward cutting-edge customer experiences. We have built strong relationships with market leaders and entrepreneurs who understand the value of physical space and the needs of today’s consumers. Integrating mixed-use components, such as hotels and residential units, reflects our commitment to enhancing our properties in prime locations.

Now let’s turn to profitability. We evaluate all investment opportunities through a rigorous profitability lens with a focus on long-term value creation. This approach (indoctrinated in our culture) has driven sustained growth in cash flow, FFO and dividends.

• We launched a national advertising campaign, “Meet Me @themall,™” targeting both Gen Z and Moms and effectively tapped into the mall’s iconic place in American culture, while also addressing the need for togetherness and social connection. The campaign generated noticeable and consistent lifts in shopper traffic and sales, strong return on ad spend, favorable cost per incremental visit, and increased brand awareness among Gen Z and Millennials. • Creating engaging customer experiences is also a key focus of our marketing strategy. Shoppers joined us for over 3,500 targeted, traffic-driving events, including back-to-school and holiday activations, concerts, movie nights, fashion shows and more. These events extend shopping dwell times and drive traffic. A highlight was our third annual National Outlet Shopping Day™ (we created), which drove

MARKETING • Our marketing efforts drive

awareness, traffic and sales for our centers and brands through high-impact storytelling, amplified across paid, owned and earned media. A refreshed creative approach leveraging custom property photography and video, coupled with extensive use of short form social video, effectively showcased the fun and in-real-life experience at our centers.

Through our “Meet Me @themall” campaign, we captured both Gen Z and Mom’s love for the mall with a simple invitation to meet up and enjoy everything that is special about the in-real-life shopping experience. Pictured here are the social media influencers from the ad’s hero spot.

EXPLANATORY NOTE This report combines the annual reports on Form 10-K for the annual period ended December 31, 2024 of Simon Property Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Simon Property Group, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Simon” mean Simon Property Group, Inc. and references to the “Operating Partnership” mean Simon Property Group, L.P. References to “we,” “us” and “our” mean collectively Simon, the Operating Partnership and those entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by Simon and/or the Operating Partnership. Simon is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Internal Revenue Code. We are structured as an umbrella partnership REIT under which substantially all of our business is conducted through the Operating Partnership, Simon’s majority-owned partnership subsidiary, for which Simon is the general partner. As of December 31, 2024, Simon owned an approximate 86.5% ownership interest in the Operating Partnership, with the remaining 13.5% ownership interest owned by limited partners. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, Simon has exclusive control of the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management. We operate Simon and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of Simon consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership. As general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, Simon consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and Simon has no material assets or liabilities other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of Simon and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements. We believe that combining the annual reports on Form 10-K of Simon and the Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits: • enhances investors’ understanding of Simon and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business; • eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined presentation since substantially all of the disclosure in this report applies to both Simon and the Operating Partnership; and • creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports. We believe it is important for investors to understand the few differences between Simon and the Operating Partnership in the context of how we operate as a consolidated company. The primary difference is that Simon itself does not conduct business, other than acting as the general partner of the Operating Partnership and issuing equity or equity-related instruments from time to time. In addition, Simon itself does not incur any indebtedness, as all debt is incurred by the Operating Partnership or entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership holds, directly or indirectly, substantially all of our assets, including our ownership interests in our joint ventures. The Operating Partnership conducts substantially all of our business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for the net proceeds from equity issuances by Simon, which are contributed to the capital of the Operating Partnership in exchange for, in the case of common stock issuances by Simon, common units of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, or units, or, in the case of preferred stock issuances by Simon, preferred units of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, or preferred units, the Operating Partnership, directly or indirectly, generates the capital required by our business through its operations, the incurrence of indebtedness, proceeds received from the disposition of certain properties and joint ventures and the issuance of units or preferred units to third parties. The presentation of stockholders’ equity, partners’ equity and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of Simon and those of the Operating Partnership. The differences between stockholders’ equity and partners’ equity result from differences in the equity issued at the Simon and Operating Partnership levels. The units held by limited partners in the Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners’ equity in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in Simon’s financial statements. The noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements include the interests of unaffiliated partners in various consolidated partnerships. The noncontrolling interests in Simon’s financial statements include the same noncontrolling interests at the Operating Partnership level and, as previously stated, the units held by limited partners of the Operating Partnership. Although classified differently, total equity of Simon and the Operating Partnership is the same.

To help investors understand the differences between Simon and the Operating Partnership, this report provides: • separate consolidated financial statements for Simon and the Operating Partnership; • a single set of notes to such consolidated financial statements that includes separate discussions of noncontrolling interests and stockholders’ equity or partners’ equity, accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and per share and per unit data, as applicable; • a combined Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section that also includes discrete information related to each entity; and • separate Part II, Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities sections related to each entity. This report also includes separate Part II, Item 9A. Controls and Procedures sections and separate Exhibits 31 and 32 certifications for each of Simon and the Operating Partnership in order to establish that the requisite certifications have been made and that Simon and the Operating Partnership are each compliant with Rule 13a-14(a) or Rule 15d-14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and 18 U.S.C. §1350. The separate discussions of Simon and the Operating Partnership in this report should be read in conjunction with each other to understand our results on a consolidated basis and how management operates our business. In order to highlight the differences between Simon and the Operating Partnership, the separate sections in this report for Simon and the Operating Partnership specifically refer to Simon and the Operating Partnership. In the sections that combine disclosure of Simon and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings of Simon and the Operating Partnership as being “our” actions or holdings. Although the Operating Partnership is generally the entity that directly or indirectly enters into contracts and joint ventures, holds assets and incurs debt, we believe that references to “we,” “us” or “our” in this context is appropriate because the business is one enterprise and we operate substantially all of our business through the Operating Partnership.

Part I

Item 1. Business Simon Property Group, Inc. is a Delaware corporation that operates as a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Internal Revenue Code. REITs will generally not be liable for U.S. federal corporate income taxes as long as they distribute not less than 100% of their REIT taxable income. Simon Property Group, L.P. is our majority-owned Delaware partnership subsidiary that owns directly or indirectly all of our real estate properties and other assets. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Simon” mean Simon Property Group, Inc. and references to the “Operating Partnership” mean Simon Property Group, L.P. References to “we,” “us” and “our” mean collectively Simon, the Operating Partnership and those entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by Simon and/or the Operating Partnership. According to the amended and restated Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement, the Operating Partnership is required to pay all expenses of Simon. We own, develop and manage premier shopping, dining, entertainment and mixed-use destinations, which consist primarily of malls, Premium Outlets ® , and The Mills ® . As of December 31, 2024, we owned or held an interest in 194 income-producing properties in the United States, which consisted of 92 malls, 70 Premium Outlets, 14 Mills, six lifestyle centers, and 12 other retail properties in 37 states and Puerto Rico. We also own an 88% noncontrolling interest in The Taubman Realty Group, LLC, or TRG, which has an interest in 22 regional, super-regional, and outlet malls in the U.S. and Asia. Internationally, as of December 31, 2024, we had ownership interests in 35 Premium Outlets and Designer Outlet properties primarily located in Asia, Europe and Canada. As of December 31, 2024, we also owned a 22.4% equity stake in Klépierre SA, or Klépierre, a publicly traded, Paris-based real estate company, which owns, or has an interest in, shopping centers located in 14 countries in Europe. We also have interests in investments in retail operations (such as Catalyst Brands LLC); an e-commerce venture (Rue Gilt Groupe, or RGG, which operates shop.simon.com), and Jamestown (a global real estate investment and management company), collectively, our other platform investments. For a description of our operational strategies and developments in our business during 2024, see Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this Form 10-K. Other Policies The following is a discussion of our investment policies, financing policies, conflict of interest policies and policies with respect to certain other activities. One or more of these policies may be amended or rescinded from time to time without a stockholder vote. Investment Policies While we emphasize equity real estate investments, we may also provide secured financing to or invest in equity or debt securities of other entities engaged in real estate activities or securities of other issuers consistent with Simon’s qualification as a REIT. However, any of these investments would be subject to the percentage ownership limitations and gross income tests necessary for REIT qualification. These REIT limitations mean that Simon cannot make an investment that would cause its real estate assets and certain other qualifying assets (such as cash) to be less than 75% of its total assets. Simon must also derive at least 75% of its gross income directly or indirectly from investments relating to real property or mortgages on real property, including “rents from real property,” dividends from other REITs and, in certain circumstances, interest from certain types of temporary investments. In addition, Simon must also derive at least 95% of its gross income from such real property investments, and from dividends, interest and gains from the sale or dispositions of stock or securities or from other combinations of the foregoing. Subject to Simon’s REIT limitations, we may invest in the securities of other issuers in connection with acquisitions of indirect interests in real estate. Such an investment would normally be in the form of general or limited partnership or membership interests in special purpose partnerships and limited liability companies that own one or more properties. We may, in the future, acquire all or substantially all of the securities or assets of other REITs, management companies or similar entities where such investments would be consistent with our investment policies. Additionally we have and may in the future make investments in entities engaged in non-real estate activities, primarily through a taxable REIT subsidiary, similar to the investments we currently hold in certain retail operations.

5

Financing Policies Because Simon’s REIT qualification requires Simon to distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, we regularly access the debt markets to raise the funds necessary to finance acquisitions, develop and redevelop properties, and refinance maturing debt. We must comply with the covenants contained in our financing agreements that limit our ratio of debt to total assets or market value, as defined. The Operating Partnership has a $5.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility, or the Credit Facility, and a $3.5 billion supplemental unsecured revolving credit facility, or Supplemental Facility, or together, the Credit Facilities. The Credit Facilities and the indentures for the Operating Partnership’s debt securities contain covenants that restrict the total amount of debt of the Operating Partnership to 65%, or 60% in relation to certain debt, of total assets, as defined under the related agreements, and secured debt to 50% of total assets. In addition, these agreements contain other covenants requiring compliance with financial ratios. Furthermore, the amount of debt that we may incur is limited as a practical matter by our desire to maintain acceptable ratings for the debt securities of the Operating Partnership. We strive to maintain investment grade ratings at all times for various business reasons, including their effect on our ability to access attractive capital, but we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so in the future. If Simon’s Board of Directors determines to seek additional capital, we may raise such capital by offering equity or incurring debt, creating joint ventures with existing ownership interests in properties, entering into joint venture arrangements for new development projects, retaining cash flows or a combination of these methods. If Simon’s Board of Directors determines to raise equity capital, it may, without stockholder approval, issue additional shares of common stock or other capital stock. Simon’s Board of Directors may issue a number of shares up to the amount of our authorized capital or may issue units in any manner and on such terms and for such consideration as it deems appropriate. We may also raise additional capital by issuing common units of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, or units. Such securities also may include additional classes of Simon’s preferred stock or preferred units of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, or preferred units, which may be convertible into common stock or units, as the case may be. Existing stockholders and unitholders have no preemptive right to purchase shares or units in any subsequent issuances of securities by us. Any issuance of equity could dilute a stockholder’s investment in Simon or a limited partner’s investment in the Operating Partnership. We expect most future borrowings will be made through the Operating Partnership or its subsidiaries. We might, however, incur borrowings through other entities that would be reloaned to the Operating Partnership. Borrowings may be in the form of bank borrowings, publicly and privately placed debt instruments, or purchase money obligations to the sellers of properties. Any such indebtedness may be secured or unsecured. Any such indebtedness may also have full or limited recourse to the borrower or be cross-collateralized with other debt, or may be fully or partially guaranteed by the Operating Partnership. We issue unsecured debt securities through the Operating Partnership, but we may issue other debt securities which may be convertible into common or preferred stock or be accompanied by warrants to purchase common or preferred stock. We also may sell or securitize our lease receivables. Although we may borrow to fund the payment of dividends, we currently have no expectation that we will regularly do so. The Credit Facility can be increased in the form of additional commitments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $1.0 billion, for a total aggregate size of $6.0 billion, subject to obtaining additional lender commitments and satisfying certain customary conditions precedent. The initial maturity date of the Credit Facility is June 30, 2027. The Credit Facility can be extended for two additional six-month periods to June 30, 2028, at our sole option, subject to satisfying certain customary conditions precedent. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at our election, at either (i) (x) for Term Benchmark Loans, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, the applicable Local Rate, the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, or the Adjusted TIBOR Rate, (y) for RFR Loans, if denominated in Sterling, SONIA plus a benchmark adjustment and if denominated in Dollars, Daily Simple SOFR plus a benchmark adjustment, or (z) for Daily SOFR Loans, the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR Rate, in each case of clauses (x) through (z) above, plus a margin determined by our corporate credit rating of between 0.650% and 1.400% or (ii) for loans denominated in U.S. Dollars only, the base rate (which rate is equal to the greatest of the prime rate, the federal funds effective rate plus 0.500% or Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for one month plus 1.000%) (the “Base Rate”), plus a margin determined by our corporate credit rating of between 0.000% and 0.400%. The Credit Facility includes a facility fee determined by our corporate credit rating of between 0.100% and 0.300% on the aggregate revolving commitments under the Credit Facility. Based upon our current credit ratings, the interest rate on the Credit Facility is SOFR plus 72.5 basis points, plus a spread adjustment to account for the transition from LIBOR to SOFR. The Supplemental Facility’s initial borrowing capacity of $3.5 billion may be increased to $4.5 billion during its term subject to obtaining additional lender commitments and satisfying certain customary conditions precedent. The initial maturity date of the Supplemental Facility is January 31, 2029 and can be extended for an additional year to January 31, 2030 at our sole option, subject to our continued compliance with the terms thereof.
