01. Other Events

Item 8.01. Other Events. Common Share Repurchase Program On December 18, 2025, the Board of Trustees of Whitestone REIT (the "Company") authorized a share repurchase program pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to an aggregate of $50,000,000 of its outstanding common shares through May 20, 2028. Repurchases under the share repurchase program may be made from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated purchases, in accelerated share repurchase programs or by any other lawful means. The timing and amount of any repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including the price and availability of the Company's common shares, market conditions, and other corporate considerations. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares and may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time. Dividend On December 18, 2025, the Board of Trustees of Whitestone REIT approved a change to the Company's dividend payment schedule from a monthly dividend to a quarterly dividend. In connection with this change, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.1425 per share on the Company's common shares and $0.1425 per unit on the Company's operating partnership units for the first quarter of 2026. The declared quarterly dividend represents a 5.6% increase over the Company's previous quarterly dividend amount. The dividend will be payable on March 30, 2026 to shareholders and unitholders of record as of the close of business on March 16, 2026. The declaration, amount, and payment of future dividends remain subject to the discretion of the Company's Board of Trustees and will depend on, among other things, the Company's financial performance, liquidity, capital requirements, and market conditions.
